If wealth and wisdom could hjye satisfied a man, Solomon would have been satisfied. To say that Solomon was a millionaire gives but a very imperfect idea of the property he Inherited from David, his father. He had at his command gold to the value of six hundred atfl eigty million pounds sterling,-and he had silver to the value of one billion, twenty-nine million, three hundred and seventy-seven pounds sterling.

The polioe court has issued papers for His arrest, tor this thing must be stopped, as the very government is imperiled.

Well, tee people run out into tee streets, some with tee idea of helping in tee arrest of this stranger when He arrives, and others expecting that on the morrow He will come into tee town, and, by some supernatural force, oust tee municipal and royal authorities,and take every thing in His own hands. They pour out of tee city gates until tee procession reaches to tLo v'llage.
