HST Tho third lecture of Mr. Gliddou, deliv
ered last ovumng, was quite as interesting a* that
on Saturday night. A tier reading from the car
touches the names of several PhuranliH whose
names wore already familiar to us, such us
Haphro, tho grand son of Psuiumeticuft J, Necho
who is referred to in 3ud Kings xxiii, 33, Tahra-
ka who is called in 3d Kings six, 3, “Tirhakah,
King of Ethiopia" and Sheslionk orSldshak.—
B.it in the “Ritual for tho Doud" of the Egypti
ans, ample proofs ure found of the lotYicst con
ceptions.
This“R'^pal," a copy of which was shown to
tho aiidiencef\vo8 a formula of pruyers and devo
tional osoreisos, of which the painted tiiBeriptions
on the mummy eases aro extracts. This funeral
ritual or “Book of the Dead" is called, in the
hieroglyphics, “tho book of the manifestation* of
light." Extracts from it are met with upon eve
ry object connected with death or religion.
Several more or less complete copies of it ex
ists. It lias been published entire by Lepsius,
from the copy itt tho Museum of Turin. It
doubtless received various modifications in thu
course »f»o many centuries, each ago adding or
extending some idoa which, in the previous age,
was loss distinctly defined.
It is divided into three parts, the first of which
directs the prayers, ceremonies anti ofi'eriug* to
ho used while tho body was carried from the
unibnliticrs to thu tomb. It is a (mom, rhythmi
cal in structure and delighting in ilHtcratinn.—
Tho doctrine taught is that the body, when em
balmed, becomes a stutue or type of Osiris, and
as much an object of worship. Tim tomb thus
become* a temple for costly ofierings. The doc
trine of tho stalo afier death, appears to have
been as follows: During the seventy days that
olapced between death and burial, it was sup.
posed that tho soul was extinct, but ns soon
a? mummification was complete, it was resusci
tated. It then ascended as a hawk, with a hu
man head to the new moon, and took a sent in
the sun’s boat, and after undergoing many tribula
tions, trials and siitl'erings. it arrived in the Hall
of Osiris, where it was weighed in tho balance
of truth and justice and received its duo award.
Among the incidents of this journey was its ap
pearance before the 43 assessors, each of whom
presiding over otto sin. To each the soul ex
claims in sell'-righleousiiuss, “ Bring forward my
excellence? scurcii out my sins!" and states that
it has never committed such and such sins.
These forty-two declarations of innocence
arc equivalent to the commandments ofthc Mo
saic dispensation, di lie ring from the decalogue
only in their number and their declarations
of innocence, instead of commandments not to
ail), and in them thu ten commandments can ho
easily found.
As an illustration of the spiritual notions of the
Egyptians, Mr. Gliddon gave the following ex
tracts from the ritual. From the discourse of the
Priest at thu Imrial—“O yc sout forth ministers to
build thu house of Osiris, send forth the soul of
the Osiriati that he may ha widi you in thu habi
tation of Osiris, that be may see as yo see, that he
may hear as you hear, that lie may sit as you sit!"
! i At the end of thu first part occurs “the discourse
of tho Osirian deceased," as follows:—“O rfun,
divine Lord! dart forth thy light and heat upon the
fiiee of tho Osirian, who glorifies thee this day
with his sacrifice, in the night ol'lhe manifestation
nl'ltis soul (his burial,) let him journey with then
to the upper regions!”
Our space will not allow us to dwell inugcr on
this lecture. \Ye repeat, those who do not hear
them, lose more than they can conceive from a
notice iua daily newspaper.

The H|,euhcr.
The election of Mr. Wiuthrop to the Hpeak-
er’s chair by tiio aid of ,8million! Whig voles, is,
a< it should, exciting the Prose of the South, on
whose watchfulness depends, moro or less, the
stability of our peculiar institutions.
The elevation of Mr. Wiuthrop, a Wilinot
Proviso man, lo the responsible duly of moulding
tho committees of the House, his election by
aoutheru Whigs, who through their presses, have
heretofore condemned the Proviso which bears
thu name of Y/Uiuot, exhibit these Whig ropre-
rtciiiativcs in a position not to be envied.
!tlr. Futliouu’s Speech-Tils Defensive Line.
It is apparent enough that Mr. Calhoun’s posi
tion is not to he with thu Democratic party. A
correspondent ol’llio Union gathers from his res
olutions that the following field has been skctcliud
to his mind’s eye :—1st. Tho total withdrawal of
our troops to the East of thu Rio Grande. 2d
The withdrawal lo and beyond a certain line se
lected by thu United Status; and 3d. A vigorous
prosecution of tiio war until Mexico is c.ompuUt
ed lo coinn to terms, and that ho lias taken his
stand upon the second of these propositions.—
The writer supposes that Mr. Calhoun is con
trolled by the expectation that either tho Whig
or Democratic parly, or a portion of both, will
fall back from their present positions and join
with him upon his defensive line, thusgiving him
the glory of striking uni the proper course of pul-
lev to lie pursued.
Bo this as it may, his late speech in the Senate
upon these resolutions shows that ho still clings
to his defensive lino? clings to it against tho
known opinion of every otlieur in the army who
has spoken upon the subject. We believe that
the defence m* a certain line, to be selected by the
United States, was first suggested by General
Taylor, hilt the circumstances under which the
suggestion was made have entirely cliaugcd. Ail
tho dilliculties of marching upon the capital wore
then to ho encountered, dilficullius arising from
the character ofthc country lying between tlm
range of the Sierra Madre Mountains, and the
city of Mexico. The simple fact that tho Capital
has been taken, and with Yera Cruz, tiio Cas
tles of San ‘Juan and Perolo, and tho cities of
Jalupnand Puebla, is in our possession, is of it
self Mitlicietit to change tho view which might at
first have been taken by mSMtury man nftlm r«-»r-
inoilu of prosecuting the war. What object
is now to he gained, what expense to he avoided,
what blood to be saved by retreating from the
various points which we bold, to a lino naming
through an extensive sweep of wild country,
dillicull of access, furnishing few or no sup
plies for an army, and without a solitary forti
fication lo strengthen it! Common sense as well
as the voices of military men, would seem to as
sure its that much is to be lost and nothing to be
gained by such a policy. If our object is peace,
will this bn promoted by restoring to the Mexi
can? their capital city, which is of more conse
quence in their eyes than tho rest of their terri
tory put together, and by surrendering with it
thu heart of their country lying upon the road to
Yera Cruz? Ho long us wo hold those vve are
defending any West-ward lino which Mr. Cal*
limtu’s imagination can conceive; so soon ns wo
abandon them vve restore energy to the spirit of
the Mexicans, revive their pride to a great extent
humbled by tho loss of their capital city, give
them the opportunity of raising new armies, and
olVor to their military chieftains what they most
desire, a guerrilla or border warfare.
And cun Mr. Calhoun show a solitary advan
tage to lie gained by this policy ? I? it more eco
nomical either of money or of life? Military
men, common sense say not. The result of the
march from Yera Cruz upon tho city of Mexico
has shown tint Mr. Calhoun was right in assert-
iug as he once did tint upon this war question a
veil had been been dropped before his eyes, and
for the first time in his life tho future had been
shut out from his view. In reference to the
amount of means and of life to be expended in
taking the city of Mexico, he certainty has been
no prophet, and his predictions as to tho diiiicu!-
tins of raising men to tight our battles for us have
been so wide of tho truth, that ho should hardly
undertake to look through thu veil again, and to
read for the instruction of the. present his discov
eries in the shadowy realms of the future.
But thu great Img-hear which seems to have
taken possession of Mr. Calhoitii’s bruin is that
thu whole of Mexico is to ho auuexed to this
country. Why should he think so / It ucer
tainly not the policy of thu present Administra
tion to annex it. Hu eh is not the object of the
war. And whatever may lie the opinions of some
of our people on this point, they certainly should
not control tho policy and action of the govern
ment in its ullbrttn secure from Mexico a just
and honorable peace. Mexico cau never be
annexed in this country unless a majority ofthc
people ofllto United Hiatus desire it, and that the
interests of the nation should be sacrificed, thu
conquests made by our arms abandoned, and a
guerilla war hatched into being to continue for
an indefinite period of time, in order to defeat
the possible wishes of such a majority, is a system
of policy which must certainly meet the condem
nation ofthc people. To many of these the re
suit, which appears so terrific to Mr. Calhoun
may ho one confidently expected, if not Imped
for’ ill the future. But uo man believes that it is
to lie the necessary consequence of this war, or
that tho Administration has any such object in
view.

Imt from high consideration* ol reason and poll-
cV—For lie believed it would leatl to tho most
serious evils. To avoid those evils as far us pos
siblo, he had proposed the policy of ado|itiug a
defensive line, lie had the same object tn View
now, in hi? resolutions. No personal or party
considerations iiillttoitoed him. It was not his

Assuming that Gen. Taylor is to be the Whig
candidate, wo should like to know what arc hi*
principles. Il'we look to the Taylor organs wo
arc lost in chaos. Tho Republican says that he is
u“un-party" man—yet the National Whign?.?oris
that lie “has never yet occupiud this no-party
platform, lie is a Whig—anti wo prophecy that
ho will receive thu iiuanimoiis voto oftho Whig
General Convention for President."
On the subject of territorial indemnity, the Re
publican shrinks from the acquisition of an acre.
The National Whig is for tho civil occupation of
tho whole of Mexico,and the N. Y. Mirror says:
There is hut one way to bring Mexico to her
senses, that is to visit her with actual war. a war
iu which site will sufiVr as well by the exhaustion
of her resources as by the destruction ofher ar-
mios. To retire from Mexico without indemuitv
and security would be an effort of folly to which
all history shows no parallel.
, It might he necessary, to solve tho myslory, to
assume, that the Whig party have either no prim
tuples, or all principles combined. Mr. Clay’s
Platform of M principles" bus sunk out of sight.
It would lie curious to see a platform of Whig
