Far beyond this horrible pool. my gaze extended to houses made desooiate. and families impoverishad. I beheld these widows in th-ir struggle for bread. I could ree them chilled and shivering and crouching in scant clothing over wretched embers which imparted no warmth, but which were all that they could j rocure. And I beheM tho.o orphan children, wjualM and wretched, uucared for, and uneducated, going down into the haunts of vice, swept into the vortex of crime, f.,r the want of the Other's guiding and restraining hand. And I cried out in the bltternefi.s of my heart: "How long, oh Lord, how long ? And what shall we obtain which will repay us for all these horrible sacrifices?" And the voice anwered: ''Iook to the lift of the pool which i before thee; and hce what thou beholdcst." ' And I looked, and behold a vaet grove of tree?, which were leaflet and dead; and
on the branches of the trees were huddled
myriads of unclean birds, lazily flapping their wings, and wiping what seemed to be blood from their beaks. And underneath was a multitude of men crying "Blood ! blood ! more blood !" And the voicca said: "These arc the shoddy contractors, and place holders, and money getter, and ungodly among the priesthood- Listen attentively, that thou mavest hear." And I heard in a loud and demoniac shriek "Prosecute the war! Down with the Peace scoundrels! No compromise! No adjustment! No settlement! The war must goon ! Down with the Constitution it i a league with hell ! Cursed be the old Union it is a covenant with death ! Down with liberty, except for negroes! Arm the black man! firo the torch ! whet the blade !

And the voice said: "Listen, yet again, while the ungodly priests arc speaking." And I Intend, and heard; "A new crmmandment give I unto you, that ye huU one another.

And many I beheld, who looked bll an,, i . p i seemed anxious to epcapc from the damned being who surrounded them. And the voice said: "Look now to the right, and zee that which U to be seen." And I looked and lo! a great assemblage of met, many of whom had scroll- in their ban la, and many were bearing banners. Of the scrolls, home were in golden letters: 4,7h Constitution; others, "Christ's Sermon on the Mount;" others, 'The (ioldcn liule." On the banners I read, '-Constitutional Liberty." "The Union as our fathcm made it; "Blessed, are the Pcace-ma-L ,, .

And I thought I beheld the ho iven opening, and the spirit descending like a doke. The tdiades of departed statesmen and patriots, and of murdered martyrs where hovering in the air. There were Washington, and Webster, and ('lay, and Douglas; and a they gazed upon the left, their counteii.incs evinced borrow and indignation. There, too, were the twelve innocent men slain by the nionitcr McNeil and Muiufjrd, who was hanged by But let the beast, and Bollmeyer, with that sad smile upon Iii face, which he wore when dying. And I looked again to the loft, ami I paw that a ofton a any ouc sought to get out of the infernal circlo, it denisens yened after him with bitter imprecations of "Traitor," "disloyal," and similar epithets; or ru-di after him with awrd", or driv? him Vo vi K-r
onets. Yet many escaped, with great joy at their deliverance and met with glad welcome from the rapidly increasing osts on th eright. And from the left they incessantly called and begged for deserters from the right. But few respouded, and they only when promised an enormous price. And these crawled on their bellies, through mire and filth, from one assemblage to the other. And I noticed that their faces instantly becomes black, their feet cloven, and their tongues forked and fiery. And the voice said: "What thou bcholdest at the North, is but a counterpart of what I might show thee at the South. Thtri marches a specter host and there curdleth a pool of blood, and demons are there carnage and vengeance; and there too, is a great host, like unto that which thou seest on the right, beggingfor Union, for Peace, for Compromise, for Constitution. But look yet again, and thou wilt ?ee the terrible judgments which are there in store for a people who violate the commands of the Almighty!" And I behold a brazen sky, and glaring Min, and vegetation parched with drouth, and springs whose fountains had failed channels rooky and dry. And I eaw great multitudes of men, women and children
hurrying with parched tongues and feeble' footsteps to the great lakes and river:, to appease the demands of thirst. I looked again, aud beheld another curse, for the green fields were smitten with frost in the summer time, and yielded not the harvest; and the cattle were dying by the wayside; and the faces of mothers were wan and bony; and children were crying fur bread; and there was famine in the land.

Is llic Prophecy KcaliaMd--Tlie
Prophet I ! In the year 1820 the He v. Sidney Smith published in the Kdinburg Review an article under the title of "America," in which he spoke flatteringly of the condition and position of the United States. Mr. Smith lought, however, lie saw a disposition on . ' r , . . the part of our people to acquire military , li.? V glory, ami lie toos occasion to warn u.- oi the inevitable con.-ccjuences. The immediate cause of this warning was the preparation made to carry on the war against the Algerines. Couriering that this was written forty-three years ago. we may well ak if the writer, in view of what is now transpiring, did not speak almost in the language of prophecy": We can inform Jonathan what are the inevitable conseauences of being too fond of glory.

The duke examined Iii? pocket-hook, in which when he left town he had 2, 5(10, and, contrary to his expectation, he now ound jCöiMj of this sum still left in his possession. He told the story to all his friends, and used always tu add: "I would give, at this moment ahuuhred pounds if you could only see the fellow; for never did nature so completely stamp a man for a robber. His very look argued a man that was destined tu come to grief." in the course of twu years his grace had ceased to think of the adventure, when ono miming he received the following Irtfrr:
