1 - Mr. Pciih r %
WA LK l. v JG al.vig’l'hu-d s're°t this evening I heard
tuv latter’pai-t of a .sentence drop from the mouth of some
i young man, which i* horru! to relate! JFhy
I bc not have hen an impostor as veil as Maho
met: I presume this blasphemous expiUsloinwas levelled
jat that glofictis- Savior ir> \r haw ti e woMd owes every
| t.img, all tiungs being made by him and Ur him, and by
! ‘’bom alone men c-n be saved, ft cm that awful state of
j depravity into which they have fallen.
1 o the .perron who made use of this expression I would
observe, that he probably never gave himself the trouble
to examine .either the cohduft and dortrincs of Mahomet
or Jesus Christ. Had he have taken any pains to have
! done tiiis he must have known that the former had made
ii>e ot superstition and deception to raise Himself to World! v
power, forcing his religion Upon men bv the edge of the
sword, compelling them to embrace dortrincs as ridicul
ous as false, promising liis votaries rewards, as the end of
his religion, that refined minds must turn from with d:s
----1 gust, and, m order to gloss over the many inconsistencies
of his system, lie was obliged to steal something goed
from the Bible, that he might with greater face impose
upon the world. Entirely reverse from this was the con
dud oi our adorable Savior; his holy religion was an
nounced to the world in the language of peace and good
will to men; he sought not to aggrandize himself, with
worldly greatness; when importuned to take upon himself
the character and office of King lie resisted the solicitati
ons, constantly declaring, that Ins kingdom was not of
thus world, and that the empire which lie came to set 110
was that benign principle which should renew the human
heart in righteousness, .destroy those diabolical tempers
vvhicii mar the peace of this part of the universe, and fin
ally bring the subjects of his grace to the kingdom above,
where their happiness would consist in that most ennobling
o! all pleasures, the enjoyment of the presence and friend
ship of the God of all things.
This same temper continued with the Apostles after
lus ascension to glory; they still preached the deftrims
of peace and good wiii to the believing and obedient, and
peisisted in it at the peril of losing,reputation, life, and
all that was dear to them as men* and wliat was all this
for? for worldly honor or applause of men? No, their re
vvards were more noble, Life everlasting, and a crown of
glory. All who preach the truth as it is in Jesus continue
in the track at the present clay, and, if faithful, will be
enabled so to do against all opposition.
Can Mahomet boast of prophecies so early delivered and
punctually fulfilled as those winch have been accomplish
ed in tnc* 1 i ir.ee of React*? I would advise this thought
less infidel to read the books of Isaiah and Psalms of Da
vid, and compare them with the life of Christ, as exhibit
ed in the New j estament. Read them with that atten
tion you would read a will in which you were deeply in
terested; for. remember, your thinking Jesus Christ an
impostor will not alter truth, and by this Jesus will von
be* judged in the day of final retribution, however slight
ingly you may speak of him now. The once lowly and
despised Lamb ot God will then become the Lion of the
I ribc of Judah, then will he dash the rebellious nations
in pieces with a rod of iron.
1 ake notice how very puiiftua! prophecies concerning*
tne Uedes, Persians, Egyptians, Romans, and Jews,
nave been fulfilled, the latter being occular demonstration
oi the truth or holy writ. Look back a moment upon
the destruction of their city, and in it see a type of your
own destruction, with the ruin of all impertinent uespiserS
Oi Christ. Finally, as your friend, let me advise you to
read i ni. ei s Gospel its own Witness, by way of clearing
your perverted judgment. Seek heartily, above all things’,
the teachings of the spirit of God. Then shall you know
whether the Gospel be truth or fable, and then will you
think it a pleasure to be called by tlr*t most desirable of
al! names, _ A CHRISTIAN.

AARON HILL.
1 UL celebrated Aaron Hill, when in Egypt, had the
cuiiosity to examine a catacomb; lie was accompanied in
i.is expedition by two gentlemen, and concluded by a
. guide, one of the, natives of the country; they at length
arrived at the spot, and, without taking notiee of some
fellows who were sauifteringgabout the place, descended
by ropes into the vault; no sooner were they let down
t.ian .hey v.eie presented with a spectacle which struck
them with horror: Two gentlemen, apparently starved to
dciitli, lay ociOie them; one of these unhappy viftims had
a tablet in his hand, on which was written, in very pathe
tic language, the story of their lamentable fate. It seems
they were Mothers, of rank and family in Venice, and
having, m the course of their travels, intrusted themselves
with one of the natives, for the purpose of visiting the ca
tacomb, the perfidious villain had left them there to perish.
The danger to which mr. Hill and his friends were exposed
instantly alarmed them; they had scarce read the talc
when, looking up, they beheld their inhuman guide/ as
sisteu by two others whom they had seen near the sDot,
closing the* entrance into the vault; they were now reduc
ed to the utmost distress; however they drew their swords,
and were determined to make some desperate effort to
rescue themselves from a scene so truly dreadful; with
this resolution they were groping about at random in the
oark, when they were startled at the groans of someone
seemingly in the agonies of death; they attended to the
oismal shun i, and at length, by the glimmering light from
the top of the catacomb, they-saw a man just murdered,
ana a litde beyond they discovered his inhuman murder
ers fly mg with the utmost precipitation; they pursued them
immeoiately, and though not able to come up with them,
they however had the good fortune to reach the opening
through which these wretches escaped out of the cavern*
before they ad time to roli the stone on the top of. it!
r lhui mr. Hill and his friends were by a miracle saved.
