If an ni created for wine tad noble purposes,
would bo InoontpoUble with tbe Immaculate character
of Dlety to conjecture that his rational and intelligent
creatures, were called into existence without tbe best
designs. A. world abounding iv everything that is
beautihl, magnificent and sublime, baa been made
for the habitation of man. Every object calculated to
please hi* taste, to captivate his fancy, to oontriboto
to hit comfort and happiness, and to sweeten the
' cfaffc* of human existence, has been spread before
himinthie vast and bcantiful universe. The littlo
pale star that twinkles in the distant Ether—tbe
blushing rose that bows to the gentle aephyr—tbe
towering Eagle wboee eye never winks, and whose
plnlona are moistened in the floating cloud—the most
diminutive insect that constitutes an abiding place
for the vital principle—all,all, tell a pleasing story of
wisdom, and exhibit a wonderful design.
Of thu.world, with Us enbllmity, its grandeur, its
unnumbered fountains of felicity, man—sinful, pol
luted and degraded as he is—has been constituted tbe
monarch. A spiritual existence crowns his forma
tion—a mysterious principle has been implanted in
Ids bosom, by the aid of which he discriminates be
tween virtue and vice, between right and wrong.—
Oonsdenoe, the secret monitor of human action, while
unsullied by the noxious vapors of moral depravity
points to the happy results of a virtuous life, ant
paints in dark and glowing colors, the blighting infl-
enoes of sin.
Man. wear with dignity those precious jewels with

service of that beneficent Being who baa not only giv
en him life in a world so fair, so bright and so beauti
ful to look upon, but given him assurances of a never
ending existence in that “ better land,” can lie down
peacefully and calmly in tbe arms of death—bia sun

TUe Celtic Race.
[EXTRACT FROM A SPEECH OF BDWARD BVEHSrr.1
" It is curious coincidence, that, as the first mighty
wave of the hostilo immigration that burst upon Eu-
rone before the time of our Saviour, consisted of
tribes belonging to tho great Celtic race—the remains
of wbicb^iIdentified by tbeir original dialect, are still
found in Brittany, in Wales, in tno highlands of Scot
land, and especially In Ireland—so by far the greater
E irtion of tho new and friendly immigration to tbe
nited States, consists of persons belonging to the
same fervid, imaginative, and too often oppressed
race. 1 have beard in tbe villages of Wales, and the
highlands Scotland, the gospel preached in substan
tially the same language in which Brennus uttered
bis banghty summons to Romo, and in which tbe
mystic songs of the Droids were chaunted in tbe
depths of the primeval forests of France and England,
in the timo of Julias Cmsar. It is still spoken by
To thla they assented, and the land was assigned to
tbam upon whiob tbey bod been cast upon tbe waves.
Then young men were twins by birth: their mo
ther, Rhea Sylvia, the daughter of Nomitor, was &
consecrated vestal, and when she gave birth to the
twins, she ascribed their parentage to the god Man.

and'castapontiie bosom of tho Tiber. The waves
were kind to them, and gently placed them upon tho
shore, at a safe distance from their persecutors.
There they were found by Faustulus, one of the King’s
herdsmen, who took care of them and reared them
np to manhood. -The tradition goes, that they were
nourished by a wolf, but historians think ft arose
bom the fact that the nurse, who led a very disorder
ly life, had received tbe nick-name of Lnpa, a wolf.
Aocident bad revealed these children to the king,
their grandfather, who was living a retired life, his
brother, Amalias, whose Jealousy of his nephews had
eo early coosed their death in infancy, having usurp
ed tbe throne. Thp old roan traced ont their lives,
and in floods of tenderness acknowledged their rela
tionship to himself. The story flew abroad j tbe peo
ple were aroused by tbeir admiration for the youths
and their indignation for the wrongs done them and
Nomitor,. by the crafty and vile Amulius. They
formed aa army under the guidance or Romulus and
Remus, and investing the city palace, slew tho tyrant
.Amdllus, and placod Numiton on the throne again.
Tbe people who went with the twins from Alba,
were hardly sufficient to round a colony and they as
sociated with them the inhabitants of two neighbor
ing towns; inviting also, and welcoming all who
would Join them. This colony was divided into two
parties for the convenience of governing. Romulus
arose between tho rival factions, aud jealously be
tween tbe brothers. Finally they came to blows : In
one of these skirmishes, the shepherd Faaltulus was
killed, and some say Remus also, but others say that
Bemus having offered an insult to Romulous by de
risively leaping over tbe walls which the other was
commenting to build around the city, he was killed
for tbd’insult, perhaps by the bands of bis brother.
With such a commencement who would have dared
predict tbe future glory of tbe city ?
Aud Romulus proceeded to found tbe city of which
he was sqle chief. The ceremony of founding a city
or edifice, is generally made quite a solemn and im
portant afiklr. Sacrifices were offered to the gods,
fires were kindled before each tent, through which
tbe people leaped; to purify themselves, and it was
declared that eagles should be the anspices of tbe col
ony; that is, by tbe flight of these birds, all impor
tant questions should be decided, and the affaire of
the colony regolated. To s^e this bird, especially to
see several of them, was considered a favorable omen,
and would certainly bring some special good fortune.
They bad other ceremonies. They dnga trench
and east into it the first fruits of whatever they were
allowed -to make use of for food, also each man cast
in a handful of earth from bis own or some neighbor
ing country. This trench was called Mundus, which
means ’’the world,”and they made it the centre
aronnd which the city was to be built. These and
many other ceremonies accompanied the foundation
or laying the corner Btone of tbe city, which was
called Rome, from Its founder, Romulus.
Dancing and Marrying a Slater's Daughter.
The Presbyterian General Assembly (New Bchool)
lately in session at Buffalo, baa bad under considera
tion two questions of considerable interest:—1st, Is
it consistent for a church member to engage in prom-
iscnoua dancing 1 2d. Is It allowable ror a church
member to marry the daughter of bis sister—bis niece ?
Tbs lint question the Assembly answered promptly
in ths*n«gatlv«, aqd correctly, we think ; bat the
. second they boggled badly. Mr. Oox, in importing on
tbe question, thus presented the matter. The ques
tion, be sala, was two fold. 1st. Is it lawful for a church
member to marry tbe daughter of bla sister ? 2d. Af
ter each manage is contracted, can tbe person con
tracting it retain bis standing in the church 7 His
conclusions were thus Btated :
1st. That what la either iawftil or positively forbid
den, may be a different matter, and often is a very
different one, from what is expedient.
2d. No legislaten by the Cburnh can bind the con-
science of a man, — - -
—- great
hie that has appeared in history. Whether it belongs
to that extensive Indo-European family of nations
which, in ages before the dawn of history, took up a
line of march in two columns from Lower India, and
moving westward, both by a northern and southern
route, finally diffused itself over Western Asia, North
ern Africa, and tbe greater part of Europe; or whe
ther, as others suppose, the Celtic race belongs to a
still older stock, and was itself driveu down upon the
South and into the West of Europe by the overwhelm
ing force of the Indo-Europeans, are questions we have
no time at present to discuss. However it may be
decided, it would seem that for tbe first timo, os far
as we are acquainted with the fortunes of this inter
esting race, they have found themselves in a really
prosperous condition in this country. Driven from
the soil In the. West of Europe, to which their fathers
have clung for two thousand years, they have at
length, and for the first time in thoir entire history,
found a real borne in a land of strangers. Having
been told in the frightful language of political econo
my, that at the daily table which nature spreads for
the human family, there is no cover laid for them in
Ireland, they have crossed the ocean, to find occupa
tion, shelter, and bread on a foreign but friendly soil.
(Applause.)
This “ Celtic Exodus,” as it has been aptly termed,
is to all tho parties immediately connected with it one
of the most important events of the day. To the
emigrants themsolves it may be regarded as a passing
from death to life. It will benefit Ireland by reducing
a surplus population, and restoring a sounder ana
justcr relation of capital and labor. It will benefit

American Diplomacy In China.
According to Mr. Bayard Taylor’s letter, which we
published on Saturday, our Commission to China has
suddenly transmuted him into a diplomatist by affix
ing Attache to his name ; and Mr. Bayard Taylor
thereupon Immediately deplores " tho perversity of
Commodore Aulick ” who departed for the United
States without furnishing the assignee demanded by
the Chinese authorities to put down the rebels.
It was our fancy that we were just now ao ranch en*
gaged in •* extending the area of freedom ” in tbo
Western part of the world, that we might well be
spared the task of helping to sustain the " area ofdis-
potism ” In tbe East. It is the fashion among all
monarchies and imperial despotisms to consider the
rising of the people “ rebellion.” Mr. Bayard Taylor
does not seem to have escaped this common error in
regard to China. Of ail corrupt, silly, stupid, stand
still, cruel and stereotyped despotisms, that of tbe
Celestial Empire is tho most thorough. We are per
fectly fair, therefore, in assuming that any rebellion
or revolution against tho Tartar conquerors of tbe
Chinese who have held them so long in oppressive
subjection, would not only be JubI but beneficial. It
is folly to imagine that tho legitimate dynasty would
ever make commercial concessions to nations that
aided in supporting its despotism ; nay, we doubt
whether such concessions would be acceptable to tbe
American people if won by blows struck In defence of
tyranny. We should reject them with scorn. We
should cherish the feeling that makes even a Chinese
worm turn on tbe Tartar’s heel. We should expect
concessions and mercantile advantages, rather from
the self-emancipated than from the hoary and sinning
Empire.
When Mr. Bayard Taylor becomes a little more ex
perienced in diplomacy and Oriental character, he
will not make up so hastily bis opinion of Official
duty in the East. Commodore Aulick acted with per
fect propriety as an officer and as a negotiator. Aa
an American officer he bad no right to interfere in a
quarrel between tbe Emperor of China and bis sub
jects ; and, as a negotiator, it was his policy to let
tho Insurgents put down a despot—if they can

ex-King of the French, many of the works brought
the highest prices. Tho portrait by Volosqucz, of the
Minister Olivarez was sold for HjioO. A portrait of
Philip IV. of Spain, also said to be by Velasquez,
copied from the celebrated original of tbe Madrid
Museum, in the third or vague manner of tbo painter,
sold for $1,250. The Guest Murillo in tbe collection
was the much Injured canvass which once represent
ed, in all the splendor of coloring and expression,
“ St. Joseph ana tbe Intent Christ,” bat, damaged
as it was, it sold for $2,200. The " Conception,” In
life size, though deprived in many places of its glaz
ings, brought $4,050. It is a composition in the sec
ond manner of Murillo. A smaller “ Conception”
by Murillo, in which the characteristics of the master
were also distinguishable, was knocked down for II,

other “St. Joseph and Infant Christ,” though not a
favorable specimen of the master, brought $1,500.
A picture or “ Jesus and St. John,” on the banks of
Jordan, brought $3,300.

Hibernia! as this boingkneels
In homage at thy shrine,
The straiu that from her spirit steals,
In all its magic power reveals
Her origin# divine. *
Thy kindling soul, oh! Erin fair!
Boon caught the inspiring song,
While echo with her ejlphs of alt, '
In rapt enchantment hovering there,
Tho melody prolong.
So perfect were the numbers sung,
Tbe echoing strain ao sweet.
The Hcaron-born muse ker wreath unstrung,
Ita most resplendent gens she flung,
Hibernia, at tby foot.
And Erin, dear, thy peerless throne
Not undefended rose, :
For valour’s soni were it* proud zone,
Bright o’er tbeir beads the Sun-burst shone—
. To shield It from Ita ftea.
And when the gospel’s g>lden light
Fell o’er thy verdant isle,
Upon her che$k, *■ moning light.
When back she flings tbe veil of night,
Glowed pure religion’s smile.
Ye*! meekly thou didst bow thy head
Before the Cnoss sublime—
No blood was in its pathway shed,
No bitter tear dropt for the dead,
In thy most favored clime :
One glorious truth alsne did seem
Dark to thy ’raptured mind,
But, ah! tho Saint espied the gleam
Of leaflets by the silver stream,
In beauteous union twined :f
Doubt not, in extaoy, be oties,
Truth's most rssplendent gem,
For here is taught in verdant guise
Tho mystic lesson from the skies—
Three leaves cn one slight stem t
Thon Innlsfail! with votive air,
Tbou ben’st on humble knee,
And in the tresses of tby hair
Entwined the Shamrock’s leaflet* fair,
Thine emblem thence to be.$
And when thou raised thy bended brow
To praise tbe u Three in One,”
Upon thy features played a glow
Of light Ineffable—ah ! now,
Tby beauty perfect shone.
Then wide tbou spread’st thy snowy arms,
And on thy sheltering breast,
Where peace with safety softly charms,
From persecutions wild alarms
Tbe wand’ring Christians rest.
And when tbe clouds of mental gloom
Eowrapt the world in shade,
like spirit rising from the tomb
In Wisdom’s robes arrayed.
And oh .’ as age succeeded age
In harmony divine,
Still brighter grew thy history’s page,
More warmly glowed each bard and sage
More widely famed thy shrine:
There Learning’* ardent pilgrims came
From many a land afar,
Lured by the ever growing fame
Of tby most glorious, well-earned name.
