THE PATRIOT'S PRAYER.
A discourse
ON THZ DZATH OF GZN. ZACHARY TAYLOR.
U.'iceridintke First Presbyterian Church, New
Odeans, (Ker. Du. Scott’s,) on Sunday, July
14, 1850.
BY THE REV., N. G. NORTH.
** Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God
for Israel is, that they might be saved."— Kohans,
xi 1.
In (the Providence of God, we are called
upon this day to contemplate a national be
reavement, which has filled the land with
mourning. Within the last twenty-four hours,
the tolling of bellsand the thunder of cannon
have announced to the citizens of Louisiana
that one of her most eminent men—the Chief
Magistrate of our confederate Republic hath
gone the way of all the earth. .
Our municipal authorities in this city, with
commendable promptness have given utterance
to the popular grief—have draped lheir halls
in the habiliments of wo—and have tendered
their expressions of sympathy and condolence
io the surviving kindred of the illustrious
well. The soldier, who had long and
faithfully served his country in frontier can.ps
the hero, who had firmly withstood, at the
head of a handful of freemen, the shock of
ten thousands of vaunting foes—the plain and
modest President, who had yielded to the
public voice, and assumed the discharge of
arduous, responsible, delicate and unaccus
tomed duties-—(duties now, alas I proved to
have been too burdensome for even his
strength!)—the good citizen, the obliging
neighbor, the courteous gentleman, the kind
hearted old man—deserves, richly deserves, all
these demonstrations of respect, of love, and
of veneration. One united voice of sorrow
is heard throughout the length and breadth of
the land: “lie beauty of [our] Israel is slain
upon thy high places: how are the mighty 1 ali
en I"
In the old homesteads of that hospitable
Slate where he was born—iu that young,
vigorous, and ardent commonwealth of ihe
West where he had his early training—in this
genial clime of the far South, amid whose ex
panded plains he had made his home in latter
years—in all these, and in every other State
of our heaven-favored land—melancholy dir
ges are sung; and the countenances of men
look ?ad, as they pass along the streets; and
matrons sigh at the household hearth, while
they breathe the name of the war worn vete
ran; and lisping infancy asks the meaning of
all these unusual signs.
It is not my purpose to dwell upon these
topics All that is appropriate to the deceased
President— illustrative of hts brilliant military
career, bis short term of civil service, his gene
ral character—remarkable and unique as it
was—and nis deep devotion to his beloved
country—all thia will be said in other places
and on other occasions.
It is our duty, as a worshipping assembly, to
make a suiriioal improvement of this dispen->a
tion of Divine Providence. The removal of
a President, in these United States—one of the
great Powers of the Earth—is the act of God.
He specks to us in His deeds, as well as in
His words. And we do well to listen, and
heed the voice sounding to us from on high.
Without further introduction, then, let us
consider the words of the text : “Brethren,
iny heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel
is, that they might be saved.”
To desire that a person or nation be saved,
implies that there is danger before that person
or nation; and to desire it with an earnest
heart, and with prayer to God. implies that we
discern the danger to be very great.
As we proceed in these remarks, let us
no'ice—
I. The danger which the Apostle had
in VIEW.
11. The Apostle’s Pkayek.
11l The Answer to his Prayer.
And, in conclusion, apply the subject to our
selves—as a nation, and as individuals.
I. The danger which the Apostle had
in view.
The perils of the Jewish nation, which Pau!
foresaw when he penned this text, were of a
serious and appalling nature. Aside from
the spiritual view of the subject—leaving oat
of consideration the wrath of God against the
soul of each individual that rejected the
Saviour when he came to his own and his
own received him not*—confining our thoughts
(if we can) to the merely national calamities
which then environed the Jewish people—we
can readily imagine why it was that Paul wrote
r-o earnestly. Himself a Jew—and addressing
his kindred, living at Romo, who had believed
on Christ—he exclaimed, with all the warmth
of his ardent nature, * Brethren”—mv kins
men according to the flesh—brethren.'both in
the ti >f a common faith and a common
blood- :ny heart’s desire and prayer to God
for Israel is, that they might be saved ” He
was familiar wiih Jerusalem; and he knew
what woes our Lord had pronounced while
weeping over her at the Mount of Olives.
Patil had been a student in her halls of learn
ing ; for he l ad been trained there “at the feet
ol Gamaliel.” In his youthful days, he had
walked the streets of the doomed city, in the
goodly society of those young rnen who. like
himself, were storing their minds with ail the
learning of the Hebrews. Year after year,
before his conversion to Christ, he had gone
up to the temple, after the manner of the
Pharisees, to “thank God that he was not as
other men.” Paul was a patriot. He loved
bi* country and the country of his forefathers,
though not born there ; and the very stones
anddustof the temple were precious in his
eyes, lie was affected by the thought that
in a few years thia grand structure was lobe
levelled with the ground Jerusalem was to
be destroyed. The holy people were to bo
scattered over the earth—to be known no
more as a nation, at least for many ages ; but
to be mingled, fora time, with all other peo
ple And no doubt, it was in full view of me
unutterable woes then at hand—the unparallel
ed carnage which attended the destruction of
Jerusalem ; that Paul poured forth his heart's
desire and prayer.
11. Tita PRATgR
Paul prayed that Israel might be sav
ed. Notwithstanding the doom pronounced
against his people, lor their rejection of
the Messiah, who had been foretold by
their own prophets :—although this blinded
race had treated God as the wicked husband
men treated the householder who let out the
vineyard—seizing hie servants—(servants, sjnt
to them from age to age, on messages of kind
n<s<j—beating one, killing auothir, and stoning
a th,rd; —although thia people, having since
abandoned God, were now about to be aban
doned of Hun:—yet, Paul still interceded for
them. True—they had sought his life.‘'watch
ing the gales of Damascus day and night to kill
him. ' True—that at Antioch they raised a
perwcnlion against him and “expelled him
out of their coasts." True—that at Iconi-'m
he was assaulted with contumely and with
stones, so that be fled to Lystra, where they
overlook him, and “having stoned him drew
him out of the city, supposing he had been
dead." True—that at Jerusalem, “more
than forty of the Jaws banded together, and
bound themselves under acurse, saying they
would neither eat nor drink till they had killed
him." Yet.it was lor such as these that Paul
poured forth his supplications. “Being revil
ed, be blessed." He “overcame evil with
good." Like Moses in the wilderness, plead
ing with God for the rebellious Israelites,
when His "wrath waxed bot againstthein
like Samuel, when he said to their descendants,
"God forbid that 1 should siti against the Lord
in ceasing to pray for you,” and when he
"cried unto the Lord all night in behalf of
Haul," the disobedient King ; like Jeremiah,
who stood before the Lord, interceding for his
people, “to turn away tbe wrath of the Lord
from them so Paul, a worthy descendant of
t hose devout ancestors, ceased not to pray forlhe
salvation of the chosen people of God. On
auother occasion, he said with exceeding
solemnity, "Isay the truth in Christ, 1 lie not,
my conscience also bearing me witness in the
Holy Ghost, that I have great heaviness and
continual sorrow in my heart. For 1 could
wish that myself were accursed from Cbiis:
for my brethren, my kinsmeu according to the
flesh.”
T.iese are very strong expressions. To
what do they relate? What was that salvation,
which Paul so ardently desired lor hie country
men ; aud for which he besought the Lordwith
such importunity I Was it temporal exclusive
ly ? Did he refer merely to the destruction
of Jerusalem, and to die dispersion of the
Jews ? Doubtless he deplored tbe national
disrolntion threatened against thorn by the
mouth of our tiariour. and prayed that such
.. i Ik-V I'l.rUW mu SB T 1 W WTF OtllV teilipo
ral calamity and national disaster that Paul
dreaded ? Did he lament simply what the
Homan armies could do ? Did he “fear them
which kill the body, but are uot able to kill the
Or, rather, did he not fear "Him
w nieii is able to deetrov both soul and bodv in
bell t”
The greater always includes tho less. The
great sutva ion is that of toe soul. For this
Paul played: Thoaaivation of the souls of
his counirymeu. For the word salvation, in
its scr.ptural use and application, means not
only de'.iveraiwe fer outward dangers and en
emies, but also from a state of sm and misery
into a».ate of union wua Christ—a transfer
irom a state of condemnation and liabili’v to
eternal punishment, to one of justification in
the sight of God. evenmating in everlus'tng
li ippiness on high. In praying for thia, Pa i!

As a people, then—regarded merely in their
temporal affairs—they are saved to this day ;
and we see their synagogues amongst us—in a
street of our own and in all our chief cities.
Yes, and still richer blessings are in stote for
them. Jerusalem is not to lie waste forever.
The cutse had a limit. Our Saviour expressly ;
said, “ Jerusalem shall be trodden down of
the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles
be fulfiled.” A time is approaching, then,
when tho Holy City shall not be trodden down. I
What il Mount Moriah bath been defiled with i
the Mosque of Omar for hundreds of years ?
What thongh the site of the temple be devoted
exclusively to the religioncf the false prophet!
What though Christians be prohibited, in the
year 1850, from entering the enclosure where
Christ disputed with the doctors 7 What thongh
the descendants of Abraham be now forbidden
to stand on that mount where Abraham bound
Isaac on the alter, and where their priests for
so many ages offered up the morning and the
evening sacrifice of a lamb 7 What of it all 7
The limes of the Gentiles—the times for the
unbelieving world to oppress those who have
thelively oracles ofGod—are wellnighfnlfilled,
The children of Abraham are the faithful ; f„r
he is “the Father of the faithful”—of those who
believe in Christ. "He is not a Jew which is
one outwardly, but he is a Jew which is one
inwardly ” And the time draws nigh when
the real Jews—that is the righteous—the spirit
ual priesthood—the followers of Christ—shall
inherit the earth. ** Fear not, little dock, for
r it is your father’s good pleasure to give you the
1 kingdom.” The blindness of the Jews is to
be removed; and they are yet to see Christ—
yet to "behold the Lamb of God.” "Blindness
in part is happened to Israel”—but only in
• part: for a part of time, and for a part of the
> race—"until the fullness of tho Gentiles be
1 come in And so all Israel shall be saved.
"Out of Zion shall come die Deliverer, and
r be shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob.”
s Yes, the prayers of Paul, and of all who are
■ for the Jews, are heard. They are promised
1 rich rewards who pray for the peace of Jerusa-
km. “ They shall prosper that love thee.”
Blessed is he that blesseih thee, and cursed is
he that curseth thee.” The Lord regards his
people “as the people of his eye. '* In a word,
He is continually working an answer to the
prayer of the Apostlo.
THE APPLICATION.
Now, my hearers, having considered the
three points suggested, what improvement are
we io make on this subject ?
In contemplating the gracious dealings of
God towards the Jews—and in praying with
Paul that they might be saved—how naturally
do our thoughts revert to our own people,
scarcely less favored! How readily we as
sociate the promises io Israel with our own
beloved country .' And whatever there is in
the promises of Scripture to the descendants
of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob—whatever of
riches, and honor, anil glory, and power, and
light, and goodness, and beauty, and grandeur
—all this, h»w dazzling soever the prospect
may be, we claim for ourselves. Nor is there
necessarily any arrogance in this. We speak
not boastingly—but tremblingly,and with hum
ble gratitude to God. Our beloved land may
realize all the promises on one condilion; that
we tear God and keep His commandments.
The blessings promised to the Jews were not
confined to them Honored they were, it is
true —honored above all other nations ; lor to
them, separated from all other races nearly
4000 years ago, were committed the oracles
of God—but, while they were thus blts-ed
themselves, they were also made the conduits,
through which blessings were to flow to every
nation and kindred. “In thy seed shall all
the nations of the earth be blessed.”
In applying this subject to ourselves let us
our people—lst. Asa nation. 2d‘y.
individuals.
1. In a national point of view, can we nay
of our country— My heart’s desire and
prayer to God for this great nation is,
that it may BE saved ? There is special
need for prayer now. The fact that the Exe
cutive power—the helm of the ship of state
is now transferred to a new hand—io one
comparatively unknown to the masses of
our people—is itself a serious difficulty.
That distinguished citizen—and he is said
to be a man of exalted worth—is now
placed in a situation of awful repon>ibility.
Possibly, and very probably he may have to
select a new Cabinet and entirely remodel
the Administration—and that, too, while groat
questions, of extreme delicacy, are pending.
No one, peih-ips is more sensible of the sol
emn weight of his responsibleies than he him
self. May God give him grace and strength
equal lo his day.
Besides, there are sectional strifes at work
among our statesmen. There are those who
would sever this Union. May ihe Lord keep us
united, and disappoint the schemes of bad
men.
These dangers we see and know ; but there
may be others threatening us, that we see not.
Though there be no hostile armies encamped
! about us, as there were at the siege of Jum
t salem—though, in our conscious strength, we
[ tnav be tempted to defy the whole world—yet,
while wo fear no outward foe—neither Eh
-1 gland nor even the Czar of Rtiaxia —it is pos
( Hible that the seeds of decay are lodged in our
vitals In our very vigor there may be dan
ger; for we are tempted to be proud and
scornful towards those fess favored by Provi
dence. and to commit or countenance aggres
sion upon the rights of others. “Pride goeth
before destruction and a haughty spirit before
a fall.”
That, in many respects, we are superior to
all other nations, is prrhaps true ; but is this
due to our own wisdom! If, in all that con
stitutes true nobility of soul, a state of society
bath been formed under our institutions, ex
hibiting inure real excellence, more solid worth,
more genuine chivalry, more sublime mag
nanimity, than under the heraldry of Europe;
if, in all physical, social, pclitical and spiritual
blessings, our people are more favored than
the masses are in any other part of the world :
who deserves the praise of ail this? Did the
earthly wisdom of our forefathers attain lor
us all this greatness, this glory, this dominion J
Did their own right arms get for them the vic
tory T If they had wisdom, they obtained it
from God; and if they were valiant, it was
because •* the arms of their hands were made
strong by the hands of the mighty God of Ji
cob.” Oh! It is delightful to meditate with
humble, and devout, aud adoring gratitude,
upon the goodness of God to our land. For
these seventy-five years, God hath been with
us. *• Lord, thou has been our dwelling-place
in all generations.
So greatly, so specially has our country
been blessed, that it is not saying too much, to
assert that already —up to the present time
tne prayer of Paul, applied to ourselves, has
been answered- Oar American Israel hath
been saved. We have never been abandon
ed. Our calamities, though often severe, have
never been permitted io overwhelm us. Evi
dences of the Divine favor—especially upon
our national counsels, in the descent of that
“ wisdom which is from above”—thus ena
bling them to guide our affairs with discretion
—have marked every period of Our history,
from the deep gloom of the Revolution until
’ the present day of prosperity.
Our people—anxious for peace—have, it is
f true, taken up arms from time to time, to repel
aggressions ; bin in our warfare, the prophecy
hath been verified, that •• a little one shall be-
I come a thousand, and a small one a strung n».-
I* tioti ’’—that •* one shall chase a thousand, and
, two pot ten thousand to Hight.”
' In our national tenderness, as well as in our
, national strength, have we received aid from
ou high. If, in our valor, when contending for
’ the righ*, die hand of the Lord hath been seen,

J3T One of the most important discoveries
of modern science, for the cure of pulmonary affec
tions, is the BALSAM of WILD CHERRY, and the
credit of its discovery is due to the celebrated Dr.
Wistar. This valuable compound has restored thou
sands of sufferers to health. It is expectorant, tonic,
and demulcent, and is said to be purely a vegetable
preparation. Under its magic influence the most ob
stinate coughs, colds, and bronchial irritations dis
appear. We have used it, and can recommend it,
particularly at this season, when the great cause of
disease. East winds, are so prevalent.
The original and only genuine Wistar’s Balsam of
Wild Cherry was introduced in the year 1838, and
has been well tested in all the complaints for which
it is recommended. For ten years it has proved more
efficacious as a remedy fur coughs, colds, influenza,
bronchitis, asthma, and consumption, in its incipient
stages, than any other medicine.
From the Dedham, Mass., Gazette, Feb. 19, 1849.
The introduction of this famous medicine to the
public, by Seth W. Fowle, has been of more service,
probably, than any other article that has yet been
discovered, and has effected more cures of various
complaints that “ flesh is heir to” than all the mise
rable compounds that have ever as yet been trumpet
ed throughout the country. The numerous certifi
cates in his advertisement fully substantiates the vir
tues of it.

TO BRIDGE CONTRACTORS.
THE CAUTION you have received from Mr.
Geo. W. Thayer, against employing me as his
Agent, is altogether unnecessary, as a very littie in
quiry on his pan would have proved; as 1 have not,
since I quit bis employment, attempted lo sell the
right of using his patent to any person whatever,
have I, at any time, represented any spurious
model, or any model whatever ss his, except that
which he himself placed in my hands while 1 was
his agent.
It is true I have, as the result ol much practical
experience, made the model of a Bridge, on an ap
proved plan, which I can justly claim as my own,
lie can judge, after 1 shall have finished the Bridge
near Rome, in this State, for which I have contracted.
Where I am kuown Mr. Thayers harsh and un
founded assertions cannot injure me ; where I am a
stranger, my own conduct, when observed, and not
his aspersions, will esia.lish my character.

Wonderful Cure of a Cancer. — This certifies
that Dr. W. R. Moseley, of Griffin, Ga., cured me
of a bad Cancer of ten years’ standing. It had near
ly destroyed most of tny upper Lip, and in fact my
whole face wag more or Ufs affected with lhe disease.

Dr. W. /?. Moseley's Cancer Plaster. — Not
only a positive but a warranted cure fur Cancers.
This Medicine has decided the dispute about the
curability of Cancers, and satisfied all who have
used it that Cancers. and all scorbutic affections,
can not only be cured, but they are as easily and
simply cured as almost any of the diseases to which
the human frame is liable. The operation of a sin
gle Box is sufficient to cure any case of common
Cancer.
Dr. Moseley, its discoverer, is one of the most
eminent Physicians < f his order, and age. Such
has been the wonderfid results of its operations up
on many persona afflicted with thia disease, we feel
it a duly that we owe to the public, and to those that
are the subjects of this dreadful disease, to publish
some cures performed by this medicine.
Ido hereby certify, ’hat in the year 1848, my son
Thomas was badly afflicted with a Cancer on his
Tongue. I tiied all the remedies that I could hear
off, but, i all done no good. lat last applied to Dr.
Moseley, who gave me a small box of his cancer
medicine and directions how to use it; and in three
weeks after I commenced using his medicine, my
son was entirely cured of a very bad cancer.

This certifies, that I have been cured of a bad

will be satisfied with the truth of the above state

Below is one of many recommendations received
Sandlake, June 30, 1848.
Mr. Smith : Dear Sir — I am now using one of
your improved Smut Machines in my mill of two run
, of stones; I have used it about ten months; lain
satisfied that it surpasses all other machines in use.
The improvement of the scroll is important: I run
through my machine wheat, rye, barley and buck
> wheat; it does not mix grain from one grist to the
■ other. It cleans to our entire satisfaction all kinds of
grain, wet or dry, and as regards power, I can scarce
- ly perceive the least variation of my mill in putting
on your Smutter; I have been told that your Smut
ter took more power than some others; it is a mis
take; I never run one that took so little power to do
the same work. I am bound to say that it is a grand
smutter, and on a fair trial no miller would be with
| OUI one. ISAAC WHEELER.

' SANDS’ SARSAPARILLA
IN QUART BOTTLES,
For the removal and perma
nent cure of all diseases arising from an
I impure state of the Blood or Habit of the system,
viz. : Scrofula or King’s Evil, Rheumatism, Obsti-
• note Cutaneous Eruptions, Pimple’, or Pustules on
i the face, Blotches, Biles, Chronic Sore Eyes, Ring
. W.rmor Tetters, Scald Head, Enlargement and
i Pain of the Bones and Joints Stubborn Ulcers,
Syphilitic Symptoms, SciaticqHbr Lumbago; and
Diseases arising from an injudicious use of Mercury,
Aciiites or Dropsy, Exposure or Imprudence in
Life ; also, Chronic Constitutional Disorders, &c.
This Medicine his acquired a very extended and
established reputation wherever it has been used,
based entirety on its own merits, which its superior
efficacy has alone sustained. The unfortunate vic
tim ol hereditary disease, with swollen glands, con
tracted sinews, and bones half carious, has been res
tored to health and vigor. T» e scrofulous patient,
covered with ulceis, loathsome to himself and his
attendants, has been made whole. Hundreds of
persons, who had groaned hopelessly for years under
cutaneous and glandular disorders, chronic rheuma
tism, and many other complaints springing from a
derangement of the secretive organs and the circula
tion. have been raised as it were from tiie rack of
disease, and now, with regenerated constitutions,
gladly testily to the efficacy of this inestimable pre
paration.
“Truth is Stranger than Fiction. ’’
The attention of the reader is called to the follow
ing astonishing cure, effected by the use of Sands’
Sarsaparilla.
This :s to certify that I have a colored woman who
has been afllictcd for the last five years with Scrofu
la, and all the remedies 1 used had no effect in ar
resting the progress of the complaint; on the con
trary, she constantly grew worse; and after expen
ding between 870 and 880 with physicians, besides
using other popular remedies without success, till the
disease had eaten away the cartilage of her nose,
made its appearance on various paits of her body,
and had finally commenced its lavages in the roof of
her mouth.
In this dreadful situation, with the prospect of
death staring her in the face, I stated her case to
Dr. Disosway, the agent for Sands’ Sarsaparilla in
Newborn, N. C., by whom I was advised to use that
article; and to my surprise and that of my neighbors,
to whom her cnee was known, alter using four and
a half bottles she was restored to perfect health, and
that in the space oi three weeks, and was able to
work in two weeks from the time she commenced
taking it-
In witness of the truth of this statement, I have
hereunto affixed my name, this 19th day of Sept.,
1847.
Joseph McCotter, j. p.
Month of Neuse River, Craven Co., N. C.
Sore Throat.
The following is an extract from a letter received
from Mrs. Bevan, who had been afflicted several
years with Scrofulous Ulcers, Dyspepsia, <Stc., and
recently an affection of the throat and chest:
Daileysburg) Fa., Dec. 13, 1845. —Messrs. A.
B. & D. Sands:—Before I commenced using yonr
Sarsaparilla, my sufferings were almost past expres
sion ; my throat was completely ulcera ed, I had a
dreadful cough, and there were frequently weeks
together that I could not speak abeve a whisper ; and
besides, the inflammation from my throat extended
to my head, so that my hearing wa» very much im
paired. After tnkiug the Sarsaparilla a short time,
my health improved, and my throat is now well ;
I am as free from cough and tigh nets of the chest as
ever I was, and can hear quite distinctly. My
throat has been well about three months, the cure of
which has been effected entirely by the use of your
Sarsaparilla. Your friend,
LOUISA R. BEVAN.
The following to the value of the Sarsaparilla, is
from the Rev. Luther Wright, aged 76 years, Con
gregational Minister, residing at Woburn.
Woburn, TWuvv., /March 30M, 1846.—Messrs.
Sands: Gentlemen—From what 1 have experienc
ed, and from the information I have recently received
from a number of persons of high respectability who
have used your Sarsaparilla, I have not the least
doubt but that it is a most valuable medicine, and
that the numerous certificates you have received of
its efficacy aie fully sustained by experience, and
although its reputation and utility are very extensive,
and stand in no need of my humble efforts to in
crease them, 1 want all who arc afflicted by disease
to become acquainted with the efficacy and power of
your valuable medicine.
I am gent.emeu, gratefully and very respectfully
youis, LUTHER WRIGHT.
