that he could not foi l*ear ti» implore tor
mercy even tor the most wicked, l his
well uuderstooil to ieler to those ot
Sodom ami its sister cities, who, as our
author relates, nut only acted contrary
to the laws of God and nature; but
had not their equals in lewd ness aud
nibmnaniiy. . They had a little dis
tance out of town an extensive valley,
deasantlv situated; thitlter they year
ly resorted-in keep up a feast ol four
.jays, during which, lire two sexes,
whether single or noGhad the privilege
to mingle- and without any restraint
whatever. Respecting their cruelties
towards poor travellers, who happened
to seek amongst them shelter over night,
which their l«w denied lo a poorsttan
ger, or even to spare him any provision;
among other almost incredible facts, il
is related that a poor stranger who
came benighted to one of their towns,
sat down at some door; a girl, daugh
ter of the owner of the house, happen
ed lo come out, was solicited by the
stranger to procure a little- water for
him; she went in and brought out
somewhat to eat and drink, for which
charitable act, when it became known,
she was taken Ixdore the judge, who
sentenced her to death fur having broken
the law; and, after her body having
been smeared over with honey, was
exposed in a state of nudity to a swarm
of bees, and was stung to death.
Once again, a man (related and fa
tigued by a long journey, reached one
of those places leading an ass laden
with valuable property. An inhabitant
of the place on seeing him, ran to meet
and welcome him; inquired of what
service he could be to him. When
told by the stranger, lhaf being provid
ed with all he wants, what he requires
was a night’s lodging only ; the man of
Sodom replied that he could accommo
date him, if he would accompany hint
to his house. They accordingly went
theirs, wireretlie host hiudly assisted
his guest lo unload his beast, and took
the property under his charge. Tbe
next morning, when the traveler was
preparing to resume his journey, lie
was urged to stay another night, to
which he assented. On the following
morning, he once more assented to the
pressing invitation to si ay another night;
hut on the ihird morning, could not
again be persuade 1 to prolong his stay ;
asked ibr the strap and uiatt^iss the
host had taken care of. The latter
answered, “ibis is the interpretation of
thy dream i Tbe long strap signifies
that thy life will lie lung, and the valu
able variegated maffrasA denotes, that
thou wilt come into possession of a de
sirable vineyard with a variety of fine
fruit.” Tiie stranger exclaimed, “1
hud no dietun ! 1 gave you mj' things
when 1 wa§ awake!” The other only
repeated his interpretation, adding “l
generally gel four silver coins for in
terpretations, 1 will only charge you-
three.” The poor man went with him
before the judge, who, after hearing
the,r story, decided that I lie native was
well known in the place as a Hue inter
preter of dreams, and his charge is just
what he said. That decision having
caused a violent quarrel between tbe

SoMiiTiuxu FUR Ou rs.—It is not gener
ally kuown that the leaves of a geranium
Are an excellent application fur cuts,
where the skiu ia rubbed off,and pther
wounds of that kind. Oue or two leaves
must be bruised and applied to the part,
and the wound will be cicatrized in a abort
lime.
Such cases freouefitly, occurred in
all their cities, having all the same
laws. Once, Eliczer was sent by Sarah
to Sodmn to inquire afler the heals!) of
her brother Li>l. The former, happen
ing to see a lialive-quarrc-l With a stran
ger and strip him of his clothes. The
poor fellow having appealed to him,
tie reproached the native for his vio
lence. The man asking him, by whom
he was empowered to act as a judge
in that place ? picked up a .stone aud
flung it at his head, which he wounded
and caused the blood to flow ; seeing
that, he seized hold of Eliezer, and de
manded pay for bleeding him ; brought
him before the judge, who agreed that
that was the law of that country.—
Eliezer, who bad provided himself
with some missile, flung it at the judg
es head, bled him and said, “vvliat l
have to pay for being filed, l claim
from you ; now go and pay for me.”
Then, only reflecting ou the matter,
apd finding of how deep a hue their
crimes and inhumanities were, we can
rightly judge of the extreme love one
must bear to his species, to intercede
for such euipiits.
Though ordered by Providence to
take up his abode iu Canaan, the coun
try allotted lo bis posterity as an inher
itance; yet Abram repeatedly had oc
casion to leave it. Once, lie was de
sirous to visit his father, and there pro
longed his slay until ordered again to
return to the former country. Later,
he \vas driven by famine lo, leave il
again, and-ior a short lime resided in
Egy-jrt; for lie, wiih^ Ins immense
wealth, could not remain in u locality
stricken with famine; having had to
provide for so many hundred of human
beings, and tbe thousands of heads ot
cattle dependent on him. For, besides
‘laving'prospered in all his doings as
lias' been promised to him, his very
troubles and trials turned out to his
nrofit. What with the presents of king
Nimrod and his courtiers, after! life mi
raculous deliverance 'front the Tire they
had sentenced him to be consumed in ;
and, after the amende honorable the
kings of Egypt and Philistia could’ not
avoid making him, tor the temporary^
distress they had caused him, by at
tempting to force on his wife the honor
of their protection, no wonder that it
was deemed an honor for any country
he sojourned in ; and that the succes
sor of the latter king expressed himself
to Abram’s heir J n ihese' words : “Go
from ;us, fo:‘ thou art much mightier
than we.” (Gen. xii. 2—3, xiii. 6,
xxvi. 16.)
On the borders of Rhitisfia, Afiram
dwelt a long time. There Isaac was
born, and there, when weaii^cl, his
father made a great feast, at which oc
casion he received the principal men
of the surrounding country including
his instructors, Shorn and Eber, the
king of Philistia with the chief captain
of his host. His own father with his
brother also catne and paid him, a long
visit.
It happened when Isaac was five
years old, tfiat Ishmael coming inio the'
door of the tent and sitting down next
to his brother, whilst holding the bow-
in bis hand, stretched it, and appeared
as if aiming his arrow al Isaac. Sara
perceiving it, interfered, aud ran to
Abraham and insisted on his sending
away his eldest son with his mother.
He was very sorry to hear what his
wufc demanded of him ; lie, however,
by a special order from God consented
to it, and sent them both away.
They traveled towards the desert,
and there they made a long stay ; he
spending his time a3 an archer; but
went over with his mother to Egypt,
where he look a wife and relumed
wrifH her to the desert.
After some time, longing to see his
son again, and having learned wbeie
his tent was pitched, Abraham got on
his camel and by midday readied the
place he was looking for, but w here he
tound only his wife and children. On
inqtiiiing lor ishmael, she said that he
in company with his mother was out
hunting. To his asking for a little wa
ter saying that he was fatigued after
his journey, she replied that she hail
neither water nor any provision to
spare.” Never asked him who he was
nor invited him into the tent. He,
Without dismounting from his camel,
turned to go back, but called to the
woman ami said, “When Ishmael re
turns tell hitn an old man from philistia
came here to see thee,and has left word
for thee to remove lho pin which holds
your tent, and have another instead of
it.” When, at his letnrn shedclivered
that message with a description of the
visitor, he soon perceived that it was
his father, whose advice to remove the
pin, he rightly interpreted to mean his
wife, who bad shown such'uiter want
of hospitality and humanity towards an
old wayfaring man. He did as his fa
ther recommended him. sent her away,
went to Canaan and took-another wife.
After the lapse ot three years, and
Abraham still longing too see Ishmael,
he again got on his camel, went to the
same locality where ne hat! been before,
and again found the tent with the wife
alone in it. But this one politely catne
lo meet him, informing him that her
husband was out limiting, requesting
him at the same lime lo come in and
accept of s<«ne refreshment. Tbe in-
vitation to come in lie declined; but,
on his asking for a little water, she
quickly ran-diid brought some food and
drink, urged him to take enough tu re
fresh himself. After he had done so,
he left word with her for Ishmael, lo
tell him on his return, that an old man
had called to see him and had left a
message for him, tjhe accordingly on
liis return, .repealed what was said to
tier, uamely: that the old man after
having refreshed himself, seemingly
well pleased, bade her to tell him that
“the pin which holds his tent was very
good,and which he shall never change.”
Ishmael understiKid that it was his fa
ther again, and that he was pleased
with his -second wife. Not long after
that, Ishmael took his wife, children,
and all belonging to him to Philfeiia, to
bis father r who, after having sojourn
ed there twenty-six years, at Ia3i left it
for Hebron j.near which, al Reer-she-
ba, he pitched his tents; where, to
gratify his desire for hospitality, he
planted a grove, with a gale to each of
its lour sides, so that which ever side a,
traveler came from, the nearest served,
him to enter it. Indeed, all passen
gers were watched, made Lo enter it, and
lie entertained there. Abraham’s father
and brother had preferred lo return to
iheir place, to Haran, and he devoted
himself to instruct his son Isaac in his
duty to his God.
Once, when thirty-seven years of age,
Isaac heard his brother glorifying him
self, questioning whether his younger
brother would have submitted, as wil
lingly as he did at his age, to be brought
to the Abrahamic covenant. The lat
ter replied, with an oath, that, if assur
ed by his father that God would be
pleased by bis f»eing ofterrd to Him as
*a sacrifice,' nothing would give him
more pleasure than his complying with
it.
Now, though the Omniscient could
have had no need to see whether fa
ther or son would stan i any heavy trial
He would choose to put them under i.
but such as Ishmael, who could aot di-
