For this is the tear ordained of Gol for rrintatinf; the descendant" of Abraham, I'anc, nnd Jacob, in their own Sand, no more to be dispossessed of it br tho Gentiles. (Jer. xvi. ,14, 15. And, when returning, God will giv t'r.e m the tabernacle, and the ark, antl the altar of incense, which he comm:. nded Jeremiah to bide in a hollow rave in Moun t Ne ho, when their ancestor were-t:oin-into caplivity in Itahylon.

i 'be trodden under foot for their transgression of the daily sacrifice.' (Dan. via., 13, 11; 2t'-24.)

A Curious Fabric. A number cf year? r;;o, .M. Habenstrcet, of Munich, art cfilccr, smused himself by directing llie lufjor of caterpillars within a limited
S,,.ce, and succeeded in proaucing an en- , t-emc Jiucnes';, on', nevertheless, firm ; enoi!!i to be in. penetrable by air; which i covninj: can be cs;ly detached ftom ihem. The inventor mide these insects woU on a suspended paper model, to which he gave exactly the form and s'ze which ha required. He thus obtained, at pleasure, among other ni tides, sqtiAte shawls, of the dimension of an ell; shawls two ells in length and otic in width; an serostatic balloon, four feet high by two in hor'zonti! diameter; a lady's entire dress, with sleeves, but without seam. When he j wished to give to the fabric any prosciibedsluipa all thai he found necessary wjj to touch the limits which ought not 1o he pissed with oil, for which the caterpillars j have a natural repugnance, fo strong that 'hey will not come in contact with if. ! The ftbiie, nitheugh perfectly consistent, I su'passed the finest cambric in lightnes?. i The balloon which ve have moptiouod weighed less than five grain?. The warmth cf too hand was sufficient inslantlv to injilate it; nnd the flame- of n single match, j '-dd under it for a few seconds, was enough to raiso it to n very considerable height, whence it woiiiu not descend for half an hour. hen a snaw! of the size of a square ell had been well stre'ebpd. :t " -,s oi'' ll ill wiw ! iiv iiiuiiiisi n a suiuit pair o! beilows. and then resembled a light saiore. subject to tne slightest agitation ol the atmosphere. Boston :iler. Jour RATHER MYSTERIOUS. A few days since, a lady nnd gentleman arrived in this city Irorn the south; the gentleman seemed to have plenty f monbor.sied of his real estate, etc ; the laI . n iir u -r t f r ! .n a very quiet and "it u ; w" pcr.CCabie bociv snul LUt little, ami seldom made her appearance at the labia 'f ho hotel where they lodged. After be ing in the city iwo or tlirce days, one 01 tho landlord's daughters became very much enamored of the lady above mentioned, and they were at almost any lime, to be found together in the room of the 1 itter. Tne landlord saw no harm iu their being in each others company, and there fore did not pay much attention to tho affair. One afiemoon, a few days since,' the two ladies went out to take a rido in a . I ! I ll l 1 11 ...t.-t. ,t, im,.i i,.i i '"- ''"ei'-i . ... v.it''.v purcnasou. iMgnl came anu iney diu not return, servants, iootmcn, hostlers. about the place, rch of the ladies, but norom them. Some orses had run away probably killed i i'0 v. ere in it; omers were ol the j opinion ihuMhey had got into the river j 2nd been ei. owned. In tiie mean time, ! gentleman wiio had come lo the hotel i wilii lb lady, who wus supposed to be hU wife, made himself perfectly easy. Ho neither took part in search for the lost nor cxpi- sstJ any apprehensions on their account. D..y before yesterday, a letter ar- " opentutr d, it was lound to read thus: 'John, biiiiy iuy Imggage over lo Paris. Tell Mi. , that ir.y wib (his daughter.) is potfectly well, and hopes he will come and spend the summer villi us." The landlord, who had been looking over the slrangei'a shoulder, suddenly exclaimed, 'What does this mean sir?' 'Why, said the man, "it means exactly Shis: Two. years ago you refused your daughter to .Mr. , because he was nothing more than your bar keeper. You likewise elischarged him. Since that time he has been to the south and made a fortune. He cuiie here dressed in female's clothes, lie found the aftectiems of your daughter were still true to him.' 'D I take the fellow, lie has outwitted me, but sir, who are you?1 'Why, sir, I am Mr. j footman T Cincinnati Ledger. Clerical Waggery. A minister who had beeu called on in Ohio to marry Mi. Brown to Miss Coffey, was asked by a friend on his leturn, where bo had been; ho replied 'I have been browning coffee" 'You browning coffee f I don't understand you,' said ihe other. 'Yes sir, and without the use eiffirc. I effectually browned 125 pounds in five minutes,' and so left his friend to guess out the mystery. A Waste. Tho parliament of Great Britain allows the Queen 1,750,000 for her support, 133,000 for her husband, and for her horses and hounds, 310.000 more, making in all 2,190,000. The same parliament allows only $133,000 a year for the purposes of education. This shows what a burden people will bear to promote the grantlcur of some great ones, clothed wilh power, when, in all probability, one half as much to educate the rising generation would be considered too grievous to be endured.
