THE GIPSY’S FLOWERS. The Origin of the Story of Bluebeard. There was once a Spanish gentleman of high rank, who-had led a very wild and dissolute life, but now desired to settle down on his estate and take to himself a wife, who would preside over lis household in a fitting fashion. Being rich and handsome his wickedness went for naught, and soon he was betrothed to a lovely lady, whose family were pleased with thé alliance and who brought him a fine fortune.

The wedding was celebrated with great pomp, and when he brought his bride home to his palace, the poor of the place as usual gathered about the door, and one—a withered old beggar woman—being loud in her praises of the lady’s beauty, and begged to be permitted to present her with a boque of white wild flowers that she had, gathered in the woods. : “A poor offering, my lady,” said the woman, “but all the poor gipsy has to give.” - g The lady took the flowers with a smile, and dropped coin into the gipsy’s hand. As she entered the 'door, she bent her lovely head and ' inhaled tht}leprfume of the flowers. » The servants remembered the action and her smile as she passed into her apartment leaning on, ber husband’s -arm, for it was the last they ever saw of her. An hour after she lay dead, and all the doctors in Madrid could not tell what had killed her.

The young widower was very sad for a long'time, but by and by he began to find life bright once more, and chose for himself a second wife. This lady was younger and lovelier than the first, though not so rich. Her predecessor’s fate did not alarm her, for she was strong and full of health.— Death seemed to be very far from so radiant a creature as she stood before the churech altar and plighted her troth to the man with whom she hoped to pass her life; but those who remembered the first wife’s.fate shuddered, as at the fall of evening she entered the gates of her husband’s villa. The same old gipsy who had greeted the former bride stood amidst the crowd.

“Heayen and the saints bless you, lady!” she cried. “I greeted her who came here before and faded like a flower. May you live until your hair 'is as white as mine. Flowers are all T have to give. Will you honor me by taking them,lady ?” The bride; as the other bride had done, accepted the offering, and repaid the gift with coin. : She held the blossoms loosely-in her hand, and passed into the hall. A banquet was prepared and she partook of it. Wine was on hand; she tasted it. When the dance began none danced more . gayly than the bride.— It was a merry wedding ; and when at last when in the early hours of morning the music died away, the guests departed, and the lamps were extinguished, the beautiful girl turned with, smiles and blushes to seek her place of rest. As she crossed the threshold of the hall she stooped and picked something from the floor. “My poor gipsy’s flowers,” she said. “I will not reject the humble token of kindness;” and bending her face over them she passed out of sight. » < llalf* an hour. afterwards the husband also entered the bridal room.— All was still. The lamplight fell over the pillows but no fair head rested upon them. He looked about him; in a far corner of the room lay what looked like a heap of rumpled satin, at first sight. He advanced toward it, and saw a hand that grasped convulsively a little bunch of white flowers, and, with a ery of horror cast himself. Dbeside the body of his bride. She was ‘dead; she bore no wound; no sign of injury about her. Again the physicians could not find no cause for the death, and people began to whisper tales of evil spirits who haunted this fatal bridal chamber, and did to death the fair beings who braved them by entering it. ' : Again the gentleman was a widower; again he suffered much sorrow, but it was not eternal. He began in time to seek another bride, but in vain. - No one would risk the fate of those other young and lovely women. No one would have this Bluebeard, the mystery of whdse castle was so terrible, and for years the widower went a wooing without’ winning, until one morning meeting the Donna Mora on her way to the church, her black eyes vailed beneath her black mantilla. he made a grand impression, and was permitted ere long to offer his hand and heart with true Spanish gallantry. | Donna Mora, who was a widow, listened not ill pleased. . “I do not detest you, Senor,” shesaid, “and I frankly tell you so; but you have had strange bridals heretotore. I do not feel tired of life, and desire to enjoy myself a little longer. Let me know why your firgt wife died. You must know. * “On my soul I do not!”said the gentleman. . ; “I - believe you,” said the lady.— “Listen to me, then. I am ready to marry you, but before I doI must be allowed to inspect your house from roof to cellar. You must vacate it, and give me the keys, and I must go there alone with my sister. I will distover the mystery, if there is one.” “Donna Mora,” said the ‘gentleman, “do as you will. I vacate the dwelling at once. There are the keys.— The long one of steel opens that fatal chamber which I beg you not to enter—the bridal chamber of my dead brides.. Adieu! Thanks for your promise, which I shall hasten to claim when you summons me,” ITe kissed her hand and rode away. She at once made ready to seek the dwelling of which she had heard so much. The lumbering carriage held her, her sister, two brothers, maid, servant, and pet pooedle, very well.— And, at last, they came in sight of the old Moorish building, and pansed to inspectit. “I begin to tremble,” said Donna Anna. - “I have no fears,” said Donna Mora. " Then she ordered the coachman to, drive closer, descending and unlocked the'gate with her own hands. All was still; only the echoes welcomed them. Their feet awoke more upon the stairs; they made Donna Anna nervous. Donna Mora was as brave as a man.. o 3o They inspected every room; they peeped into every closet; they opened the bridal chamber, and saw the dust that had gathered upon its ornaments, and froni the neighbors they drew the the whole story. All that was known. _ And for the first time Donna Mora heard of the old gipsy and her flowers. Then she waited, pacing the floors _of the empty rooms, while Donna Anna watched from the window, and the brothers smoked cigarettes in the court yard. What was she waiting for? She told no one. b

LIGONIER, INDIANA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1574.

At last: e “Sister, is any one coming? I tho’t I heard a step,” said she. _“lt is an old gipsy with some flowers,” said Donna Anna. And Donna Mora said:

“Bid her come in.” : . Then, passing between the smoking brothers, who scarcely looked .up, and by the little dog, who growled, entered an old woman, shirivelled and yellow, who courtesied and said:

“May the good stars shine for the pretty senoritas and the brave senors. I have heard that the lady who is to be mistress here has come, and I am old and may not live tosee her a bride, and would fain welcome her.” : Then Donna Mora ‘answered: “T am the lady.”

“Then may I offer a few wild flowers,” said the gipsy, “and my good wishes, for the senior has been my benefactor, A poor, gift, but do not scorxg.it. : Sheé held the flowers toward Donna Mora, who took them and put them down upon the table. “Donna Anna,” said sle, “bring my dog here. Brothers, seize the gipsy.” - In a moment more the struggling woman was held in a strong grasp, and Donna Mora, holding her dog in her lap, pressed the flowers to his nostrils. “If he lives, free her. If he dies, have her arrested,”’she said quietly.

Donna Anna hid her face. The brothers sternly regarded first the women, then the dog the latter had begun to tremblé. In a moment more he uttered'a whine, long and terrible to listen to. Donna Mora dropped the flowers. The poor creature lay motionless across her lap. He was dead. “Have the woman arrested,” said Donna Mora, again. “Itis she who has murdered those two poor women with her poisoned flowers, as she ‘would have myrdered me.” - But to the senor, when they mes once more, she said this: : “I know the ways of gypsiep and their axt of poisoning flowers. I know also that an injured gipsy girl is always avenged by her tribe. He who is false to one woman let no other woman trust. Adieu!” it - ; THE RACE ISSUE.

'~ To men living in the Gulf States, the negro problem is one of more than ordinary interest. The country, says the Fort Wayne Sentinet, has made more sacrifices for that unfortunate member of society than anything else, and now wherever that race predominates society is chaotic, progress has changed into retrogression and utter despair has seized upon the people. The nation was plunged into a war to procure for him his rights, now -a military dictatorship is deemed necessary to maintain them. The republic is already betraying signs of dissolution. Rome began to decay in the same way. The necessity of a military rule in the South, and the familiar example of lawlessness and violence, must inevitably have its effect upon the adjoining States, and thus the evil will insensibly, but inevitably spread. Lawlessness in. Kentucky and Tennessee is easy because the people of those States have become demoralized by a four years war, waged over their very hearthstones. They were forced to bécome wanderers and outlaws. The antagonism of the government to the white people of the Sosthern States, and the maintenance there of military forces, if only to keep order, is an incontestable evidence that government is weak and wrongly administered.— Wherever the negro predominates in the South, prices of land have decreased, production has been diminished, taxes have increased and signs of decadence are everywhere manifest. Witness the State of South Carolina, cursed above all its sisters in this respect. No ene will deny that if franchise is a natural right, and having once bestowed it upon the black race, it cannot be recalled. If, therefore, he be allowed to retain it, matters will necessarily go on from bad to worse, until the whites are forced to fly from the land, or to exterminate the blacks, as the Indians were exterminated.— The blacks owe what little intelligence they possess to-contdact with a superior race. Isolate them and they have no energy. In .allithe States where they preponderate they are rapidly assuming a condition of pauperism. Schools, churches, and all those means of retaining and fostering civilization WOIEdiSOOH disappear. A people which cannot support itself must prey upon those who can, and so logically following out the career of the Southern blacks, we will find them in a few years returning to the barbarism which has always characterized them in their own country. The richest lands on the continent will have been surrendered to them in the mean time by the whites. But it is not reasonable to suppose that a people which has exterminated the aborigines whose only offense is that they were reluctant to yield the lands nature had given them, will long hesitate to assert their claims upon the same lands which have come into the possession of a half-barbarous people. A war of races, a war of ex.termination, must ensue unless the problem has a more peaceful solution. - It is quite certain, and in perfect consonance with the teaching of all history, that the stronger and superior race must eventually entirely root out an inferior race, even though the process be an extermination. The only hope for the philzan ‘thropist has been that under the genial influence of freedom the .negro ‘'would rapidly rise to an equality, physical and mental, }‘avith the Caucasian. This hope has 'not been borne out by the facts. Lands in the Gulf States, which. before the war were worth from forty to dixty dollars per acre, when money was worth far more thap at present, can now be purchased for ten dollars per acre. The quantity of cotton produced now is barely equal to what it was before the war, altho’ it is worth much more. This fact alone would, jimder ordinary ecircumstances, stimulate the industry. When

we consider that in order to keep the production of cotton up to the ‘standard attained before the war, capital and labor have been largely attracted }from thé North, it will be seen that : the negro industry of the South has fallen off very greatly. But more than this, before the war the South produced its own corn and pork. Now these staples are shipped from the West and North. The amount of cotton sold by Alabama alone during the past year, to buy the corn and pork necessary to make up the deficit, was not less than eight millions of dollars. This must be deducted from the total production of cotton if we would make a fair estimate of what the State has actually produced. All this is teqching the Southern people that the planting system does not pay. Itis found that by the farming system one man can do the work of ten, besides raising his own food products. The change to the latter system is going on all over the South, and the result anust be that the surplus population must seek new fields. They will not be able to find employment on the farms of the South, and they will, therefore, be forced to go West and North. If the negroes are thus distributed over the whole country, the difficulty is for a while obviated, but there will come a time when the old battle must be fought over again. There is nothing more certain than that this people is a dead weight upon the progress of the South. Wherever the negro predominates waste and ultimate pauperisin prevail, By-the laws of some, of the Southern States, a large portion of the public revenue is devoted to the public schools, which means the education of negroes The class benefited are always poor, never producers, but always consumers. In Alabama a hundred thousand negroes pay a poll tax ef fifteen thousand dollars, or in other words, but one man in ten pays-any tax. This is all applied to the schools, of which the blacks receive -almost the exclusive benefits. These are some of the problems which are set before the Southern people for solution. There is a refl, a deep and an irrepressible conflict between these two races; a contest of thrift against unthrift, of civilization against barbarism, of ideas against cloddish stupidity. It is these considerations which underlie the surface of antagonism between-the whites and blacks, ahd which federal bayo--nets alone can never remove. S - BER—— . Indisgestion’s Martyrs.

When the stomach fails to provide healthful nourishment for its dependencies they necessarily suffer, and the ultimate result, if the evil is. not arrested, will be chronic and probably fatal disease somewhere.

CRUSHING LOUISIANA.

A Crime for Which Grant Deserves Impeaehment — The Facts of the Louisiana Conspiracy—The President, The Attorney-General, and Congressman Acting With the ConSpirators. . , ' [From the New York Tribune.] The documents captured in Mr. Kellogg’s office at New Orleans have made it as clear as noonday that the installation of Kellogg was the result of a conspiracy in which local politicians, officers of the Federal Government, and members of Congress were equally implicated. That there were frauds in the election of McEnery we have unfortunately noroowa to doubt; nevertheless McEnery was elected, the lawful Returning Board properly awarded. him the office, and the close of November, 1872, saw the Administidtion\ threatened with the loss of Louisiana. A scheme was then contrived by William Pitt Kellogg, S. B. Packard, and James F. Casey, added by certain high functionaries in Washington, to reverse the verdict of the election. The first step was to engage Judge Durrell to put in motion the machinery of the United States Court for the purpose of ousting the Returning Board and setting up in its stead a fraudulent and collusive body which should count in Kellogg and an Administration Legislature. ,The next was to procure troops to execute Durell’s expected decrees. Accordingly on the 3d of December, at a time when there was no disturbances, nor threat of any, the Attorney-General launched this dispatch to Marshal Packard, like a thunderbolt out of a clear sky: “You are to enforce the decrees and mandates of the 'United States} Court, no matter by whom resisted,.and General Emory will furnish you with all necessary troops for that purpose.” Two companies of the First Artillery were ordered from Florida to New Orleans. They arrived on the night of the sth. Judge Durell immediately applied to himself at his own lodgings, shortly before midnight, without the presence of the counsel on either side, for an order in the case of Kellogg against Warmoth, commanding the Marshal to take possession of the State-houes. MARCHING ON THE STATE-lIOUSE. Armed with this void mandate, Mr. Packard, who happened, of course,- by the merest accident, to be present when the Judge moved himself to grant it, marched the soldiers to the State-house at two o’clock -in the morning, prevented the Legislature from assembling, and gave timo for his illegal Returning Board, assisted by further void orders from Judge Durell, to set up a pretended Legislature in its place. The pretended Legislature, assembling under protection of the Federal bayonets, removed Governor Warmoth by a pretended _qgrocess of impeachment, rushed thro’ Coontrary to law in the course of two or three hours, installed Pinchback, and then waited for a response from Washington. - “The decree, if not enforced,” telegraphed Casey to the President, “will save the Republican majority, and give Louisiana a Republican Legisla~ture ‘and a State Governor.” “Our members are' poor and adversaries are rich. There is danger that they will break our quorum. If requisition of Legislature (for troops) ‘is complied with, all difficulty wiil -be dissipated, the party saved, and everything go on smoothly.” “Democratic members of . Legislature taking their, seats. Important that you immediately recognize Governor Pinchback’s Legislature in some manner.” So the next day Attorney-General Williams, who had meanwhile been in telegraphic communication with Marshal Packard, sent a dispatch to Pinchback: “Let it be understood that you are recognized by the President as the lawtful Executive of Louisiana, and that the body assembled at Mechanics’ . Institute is the lawful Legislature of the State.” To a Committee of citizens, asking to be heard in behalf of the legitimate authority .thus outraged, Mr. Williams replied: “Your visit with a hundred citizens will be unavailing, so far as the President is concerned. His decision is made, and will not be changed.” HIRING CONGRESSMEN. ' The plotters in New Orleans and the plotters in Washington having thus performed their respective parts, it resulted that Kellogg was thrust into the Governorship, and there were two Legislatures and two persons claiming admission to the United States Senate. °~ This threw the controversy into Congress, and it became important for Mr. Kellogg to make sure of friends in-that body without a:moment’s delay. One of the most important persons at the capital, owing to his official relations: with the Administration party, was: William E. Chandler, Secretary of the National Republican Executive Committee.— Kellogg hired Mr. Changler’s services, and paid for them without any circumlocution, giving him at the starta retaining fee of $l,OOO, with the understanding that he should have more when he had earned it. . Chandler exerted himself zealously among’ the Republican Senators and Representatives. The Attorney-General took care of the Executive branch of the Governmént. “Chandler has worked with us nobly,” writes Kellogg’s lawyer, Mr, Billings, “and more effectually tlian any one, except Williams.” . In all this disgraceful history—disgraceful to no one more' than the President of.the United ‘States, who seems to think it his privilege to set up and overturn Governments as may best suit the caprices of his ambition —the one ray of light is the belief of the conspirators that the majority of the members of Congress of both parties were too honest to take partin the fraud if they only knew what it meant. Grant, Williams, Kellogg, Morton, Butler, Chandler, all appear from first to last in the attitude of hoodwinking Congress. 1s it too much to hope that their successors in that line are at an end, and that when Congress next assembles a searching inquiry will e made info the scandal, and a prompt redress found for the cruelly outraged State of Louisiana? Kellogg did not trust, however, entirely to the influence of Chandler.— His opvonents had applied to the United States Supreme Court for a ‘writ of prohibition to.check the outrageous orders of Judge Durell. 1t wag not an alarming movement, for repeated decisions of the court had settled the point that an applicatign of that sort could not be granted.— Nevertheless, it afforded Kellogg an opportunity to retain several persons of influence. Caleb Cushing received $2,000, one-half of which he “found it desirable to deliver to Mr. Chandler,” leaving certainly a generous fee for his own easy service, Mr.Carpen‘ter, the most important man :in the

No. 25.

.Senate after Mr. Morton (whom Kel‘logg had already) was retained at the suspicious and wholly disproportionate price—he says of $3,000, though Congressman Sypher calls it $4,500; and at the other end of the Capitol Kellogg purchased the services of Mr. Benjamin F. Rutler. After these investments Kellogg remained undisturbed throughout the whole of the session. . There were séveral resolutions in the House of Representatives for the investigation of Louisiana affairs, but they never came to any. thing, Mr. Butler staving off action on the plea that he meant to bring in a bill for a new. election, which. he failed to do. The Judiciary Committee took the case into consideration, but Mr. Butler was the most influential member of that committee (practically its chairman,) and it made no report. In the Senate, however,there was more trouble—and this brings us to the most remarkable chapter in the whole story. - ; . v KELLOGE&'S GREAT BLUNDER. - Kellogg had made one great blunder. He was not good pay. Mr.Chanler, for instance, was highly dissatisfied with his compensation, and wrote to the Governor in a strain of menace: “I have learned what you have done for other counsel here during my absence, and am very much gratified that you were able to respond to their demands. You must not now forget or neglect me, but must. make me a remittance, and it ought to be as large as you send or have sent to 'anybody else.” = “Chandler wished me to write to you'about his fee,” says Billings. “I would arrange the matter with him at the earliest moment possible.” There was the same difficulty with Mr. Carpenter. Mr. Carpenter received half his demand on account. At ﬁrs% when the Louisiana case came int the Senate, he stoutly defended the usurption, taking precisely the same stand as Senator Morton. Then the matter was referred to a committee of which he was a member. . With his claim against Kellogg still unsetfled, he made his celebrated report a month afterwavd,recommending a new election ‘and the re-establishment of the defunct Warmoth Administration ad interinzr;J;,ut, .as if umwilling to push his €lient too far, he consented to an amendment which virtually recognized the Kellogg Government. The bill was lost. . !

Even after -this warning Mr. Kellogg did not pay. - :Three months. afterward Mr. Carpenter went to New Orleans and made a curious speechfto the people—a speech which Senator -Morton declared he could not understand, because it %mst offend both sides.. But we are tempted to conclude that Kellogg understood it, for the sa#me day he paid Mr. Carpenter $5OO, and two days afterward he paid him $5OO more. Mr. Chandler had good reason to write to Kellogg in December; 1872, “I have learned what you have done for other ecounsel here. The largest demand, whether reasonable or not, it was expedient for you to meet, as you did.- Much would have been saved ifit had been responded to a year ago, aceording to ‘my request.” Whereupon Kellogg sent Carpenter another check for $5OO. Mr. Butler was put off with $1,000; and when the next session.of Congress opened, in December, 1873, Mr.. Kellogg, a year after his intrusion into office, was still beset with trouble. ; THE PRESIDENT STANDS UP WITH ; : THEM. ‘ * The prospect at first, however, was not discouraging. - Mr. Butler forced the admission of the KeHogg claimarnts to the House of Representatives by a vigorous use of the party lash. “It was a strict party vote,” wrote Billings, “and meant a determination to recognize at all hazards your Government.” “There is no possible chance of a decision which can be adverse to our interests,” exclaimed : victorious . Congressman Sypher. “The case is dead —dead as' hell, and the man who attempts to raise it is damned.” Mr. Morton, fortifred by briefs from Chandler and Billings, was working for the admission of Pinchback tothe Senate. The Attorney-General was zealous in the same cause; and though there had been rumors that General Grant was weakening, Senator West (to whom Kellogg sent during this month a chech for $1,000) wrote: “I had a very pleasant and.-liberal conversation with the President; he stands square: up to us.” Ly .

For the use of Messrs. Chandler and Morton, in the case before the Senate, Kellogg had sent to Washington the Ex-State Register of voters, B. P. Blanchard, who had confessed to the perpetration of gross frauds in the interest of the Fusionists, (and to whom, by a singular coineidence, Kellogg’s check-book showed four payments of money,) and the conspirators had their choice of submitt%g this man’s testimony to the Senate Committee, or trusting to decisions in the Louisiana Supreme Court, which had been manufactured by wholesale ever since Kellogg’s installation. = “Will-. iams had no doubt,” writes Billings, “the examination of Blanchard might turn out badly, so I have preparea a Lrief solely on the decision of the Supreme Court, so as to be ready to submit the case on that peoint alone at first iff Morton finds the tember. of the Committee will allow. I think if the matter is pushed to an ithmidiate vote, on just enough of a case, we shall win.” , As for Mr. Carpenter, “he is not with us,” writes Kellogg's Assistant Attorney-General, “though he is willing to be convineced.” It was a few days after this that Kellogg sent Carpenter the third check for $500.— Senator Morton carried out the plan agreed upon in concert with the At-torney-General and made his argument entirely upon legal grounds, ignoring Blanchard and his budget of frauds. e ; i : A CURIOUS CHANGE. - But suddenly about the middle of January a eurious change occurred in the position of affairs. The President, as the Tribune dispatches of that date revealed, became earnest for a. new election, and the President's friends changed their coursé. . Mr. Morton stopped action in the cause of Pinchback. ‘- Géneral Butler ~bef:ame clamerous for the impeachment of Durell. “Butler says he had instryetions from the White House to ma*xe the move,” writes congressman Darrall. At that time General Grant had gone so far as to prepare a special message recommending a new election. ‘Why? Was he atlast convineed of the knavery of his Louisiana friends? Was he satisfied that the people had been wronged? No; the disclosure of the investigation -had not moved him: but he wanted his brother-in-law Casey in the United State Senate, and ‘to get him there he, was ready to overturn the aniruadspvﬂ ernment_which he himself had set upsiﬂ?‘ﬁﬁlﬁi‘@i@nmﬁﬂﬁ?ﬁ%ff:!‘.@?ﬂﬁs“.ﬂf'

lature he had called into existénce and give the New Orleans Custom‘house the chancé to manufacture a new one. “The President is quiet,” writes Darrall, “but not letting down. If Pinchback is not seated I judge we will have a message, or at least to fight the whole influence of the Administration. You have heard what has probably changed the President’s mind. I have it from the veiy best authority that in case of a new election Casey would come to the Senate, and you can see if there is, as seems to me, a move for the third term.

Whatever the. cause, there came a great calm in the Lousiana trouble. All projects for a change were quietly postponed, The session rolled by; the Committees kept on considering; and -when the adjournment came Durell had not been impeached, Pinchback had been neither admitted mor rejected, and Kellogg still ruled at New Orleans—by the aid of bayonet and the checkbooks. : -0 AR ——— e ", A BIBLICAL QUESTION. Did or Did Not Moses Cross the Red . Sea?

A convention of historians and oriental scholars has recently been held in London, which has attracted very wide attention. The addresses of Sir Henry Rawlinson and Max Muller were bold and iconoclastic, and defiant of many cherished opinions. = But the paper read by Brugsch Boy, a distinguished scholar of Egypt, on the question of the site at which the Israelites crossed from Egyptinto the Promised Land, was of unusual interest. Monumental inseriptions had been collected, geology studied, names compared, and maps prepared to authenticate the history recited. The following is a brief resunie of the positions they arrived at: ! :

I have chosen for my theme (said Brugsch Boy) the exodus of the Hebrews from Rames to their arrival at Elim. All savants who have previously occupied themselves with the reconstruction of this route have taken as the basis of their researches, the geography of Egypt during the time of the Lower Empire, comparing if with that of our days. So many savants, so many different dpinious con_cerning this route. But all, with the exception of two, agree that the Jews went througlh the Red Sea. My own researches are founded on the geographical indieations of Xgyptian monuments, contemporary with the time of the oxo}éus. I was able -to reconstruet the Egypt of this epoch ‘with its forty-two provinces, with its chief towns, and’with a very great number of very curious details of the topography and also of its divine rifes. From this I have arrived at the following conclusions, which I consider unquestionable: B i. That the town of Rames “differs in no way from the town of Zion,” which is spoken of in the Bible as the place where Moses performed his miracles before the Pharoah of his time. This is the same town which the Greeks called Tanes, -and which ‘was the chief town of the district Tanitis. - -2, That the town of Philton, like- . wise mentioned in the Dible, was the chief town of the adjoining districts, ‘called by the Greeks the district of ' Sethroites. The Semitic name of this same town, cited.in the papyri of the British museum, was Suko, or Sukoth, } which corresponds-exactly with the ' second station at which the Hebrews camped after their exodus from Rames. | . 3. The third station, called in the Bible Etham, bears the name of Hetham in the Egyptian texts; the name means “the fortified.” = This fort was situated westward from the place elKantareh (4. e, the bridge) of to-day on the confines of the desert., After having arrived at Etham the Hebrews turned to thenorth, and arrived then: at (4) Migdql, which was the fourth station, The name is completely Egyptian, and means the fortress of Magdolon of the Greek and Roman authors, situate at Tel-e-Semont of our day.- Setting out from Migdol, the Hebrews camped between Migdol and the sea (4. e., the Mediteranean) before the entrance of the Hiroth (Pihahioth,) in face of Baal Zephon. The Hiroth, an Egyptian term, denotes those fearful abysses situated between the Mediterranean Sea and the Lake Sirbonis. The place of Baal Zephon, i Egpytian Baali Zapouna, is the name of a sanctuary situated at the Casfan Mount. As Pharoah and his army pursued the Hebrews on this isthmus between the sea and the lake of Sirbonis, to which the inscriptions give, as to all lakes, even to the Red Sea, the name of Sea of Algee (jam Suph,) there befel' the Egyptians at those places the same fate which, in the course bf history} befel single travelers as well as wh’(’ﬁe‘ ai‘mies.——;«th!%y were swallowed by the abysses 'ofthe sea of Algal or Weeds. Once arrived at Mount Kasias, where was the eastern froatier of ancient Egypt, and where the “way of the Philistines” begins, the Hebrews traversed, in a southern direction, the Marah, “where the wafer was bitter.” These are the Bitter-water lakes of our day. The sixth station, Elim, is called in Egyrt “A-lim” (i. e, the town of fishes,) to the north of the Red Sea. All these indicatigns exactly correspoud in Hebrew and in Egyptian, No servant can separate them from one another, yor atter tlie site now fixed* Q‘hce;ifor all. g 5 et
