My room opened upon a little terrace.—the flat roof of a lower apartment in our inn at Jerusalem, anil from this little ternre I was never tired of gazing. A considerable por tion of the city was spread out below me ; not. with its streets laid open to view, its it would be in one of our cities; but presenting a col lection of Hat roofs, with small white cupolas rising front them, and the minarets of the mosques springing, tall ami light as the pop lar from the long grass of the meadow. The narrow, winding lanes, which arc the streets of Kasterii eities, tire scarcely traceable from :i bight : hut there was one visihft; from our terrace, —with its rough pavement of large stones, the high house walls on each side, nnd the arch thrown over it, which are so f tmiliar to all who have seen pictures of Jerusalem.— This street is called the Via Lfolorosn, the Mournful way, from its being supposed to he the way hy which Jesus went from the Judg ment Hull to Calvary, bearing his cross. Ma ny times in a day my eye followed the wind ings of this street, in which I rarely sow any one walking; and when it was lost among the buildings near the walls, I looked over to the hill which bounded our prospect; —nml that hill was the Mount of Olives. It was then the time of full moon, ami alter evening I used to lean on the parapet of the terrace, watch ing for the coming up of the large yellow moon from behind the ridge of Olivet. Hy day the slopes of the Mount were green with the springing wheat and dappled with the shade of the Olive clumps. Hy night, those chimps nnd lines of the trees were dark amid the lights and shadows cast hy the moon; and they guided the. eye, in the absence of day light, to the most interesting [mints, —the de scent to the brook Kcdron. the road to Beth any, nnd the place whence Jesus is believed to have looked over upon the noble city when he pronounced its doom. Such wns the view from our terrace. One of our first walks was along the Y T ia Doloroso. There is a strange charm in the streets of Jerusult m.frorn the picturesque char acter of the walls and archways. The old walls of yellow stone are so beautifully tufted with weeds that one longs to paint every an gle and projection, with their mellow coloring, and dangling and trailing weeds. And the shadowy archways, where the vaulted roofs intersect each other, till they are lost in the ! dazzle of the sunshine beyond, are a perpetual | treat t., tlieeyc. The pavement la tlw wont I | ever walked on ; —large, slippery stones slant ing all manner of way.-. Passing such weed y walls and dark archways as I have mention ed, we turned into Via Doloroso, arid followed it as far the as GovernorVHouse, which stands where Fort Antonia stood when Pilate there tried him in whom lie found, as he declared, no guilt. Here we obtained permission to mount the roof Why did we wish it ? For reasons of siteh force as 1 despair of making understood by any but to those whom the mime ol the Tem ple has been sacred to the earliest years. — None but Mohomedans may enter the inclos ure now; no Jew nor Christian. The Jew and Christian who repel each other in Chris tian lands are under the same ban here.— They are alike excluded from the place where Solomon built and Christ Sanctified the tem ple of Jehovah ; and they are alike mocked and insulted, if they draw near the gates. — Os course, we wcie not satisfied without see ing till we could see of this plaee—now occu pied by the mosque of Omar —the most sacred spot to the Mohamedans, after Mecca. We could sit under the Golden Gate, outside the walls: we could measure with the eye, from the bed of the brook of Kcdron, the l.ight of 1 the walls which crowned Moriah, and from a i mid wliieh o.iee arose the Temple courts; we could sit where Jesus sat on the slope of Olivet, and look ever to the bight whence the glori- I ous Temple once commanded the Valley of j Jehoshaphat, which lay between us and it: but this was not enough, if we could see more. We had gone to the threshold of one of the gates, as far as the Faithful permit the infi del to go: and even there we hud insulting warnings not to venture farther, and were ! mocked hy little boys. From this threshold Iwe had looked in ; and from the top of the | city wall we had looked down upon the inclo j sure, nnd seen the external beauty of the ’ buildings, and the pride and prosperity of the { Mohammedan usurpers. But we couhl see yet more from the roof of the Governor’s house: and there we went accordingly. The enclosure was spread out like a map I below us; and very beautiful was the mosque built of variegated marbles, and its vast dome, and its noble marble platform, with its Hights of steps and light arcades; and the green ; lawn which sloped away all around, and the row of cypress trees under which a company of worshipers were at their prayers. But how couhl we, coming from a Christian land, at tend much to present things, when the sacred Past seemed spread before our eyes? 1 was looking almost all the while, to see where the Sheep-gate was, through which the lambs lor sacrifice were brought: and the Water-gate, : through which the priest went down to the spring of Siloam for water for ritual purifica tion. I saw where the Temple itself must have stood, and planned how far the outer courts extended. —the Court of the Gentiles, the Court of the Women, the Treasury, where the chest stood on the right of the entrance ; and the right hand might give without the I left hand knowing: and the place where the scribes sat to teach, and where Christ so taught in their jealous presence as to make converts of those who were sent to apprehend him. 1 saw whereabouts the altar must have stood, ami where arose, night and morning, for long centuries the smoke of the sacrifices. 1 saw where the golden vine must have hung ils clusters on the front of the Holy Place, and where, again, the innermost cham ber must have been.—the Holy of Holies, the dwelling-phiee of Jehovah, where none hut the High Priest might enter, untl he only once a year. These places have been laminar to my mind’s eye tioin my youth up; almost as fa miliar as my own house; and now 1 looked at the very ground they had occupied, and Ihe very scenery they had commanded, with an emotion that the ignorant or careless reader of tile New Testament could hardly conceive of. And the review of time wus hardly less interesting than that of place. Here, my thoughts were led buck to the early days when David and Solomon chose the ground, and leveled the summit of Mount Moriah mu! be gan the Temple of Ji hovah. I couhl see the lavishing of Solomon’s wealth upon the edi fice, and the hill of its pomp under invaders who worshipped the sun; nnd the rebuilding in the ditysol Nehemi ih, win n the eiti/.i ns winked at the walls with arms in their girdles ; nnd in the Atll glory and security (as most oi the | Jews thought) of their Temple while they paid 1 tribute to the Homans. O I the proud Mo hammedan* belbrc my eyes were very like [tbe promt Jews, who mocked at the idea that j their temple should be thrown down. I saw now the urea where they stood in their pride, jand where before u generation bad passed i away, mi stone was left ujioii another, and | tbe plow was brought to tear up the Inst re j mam# ot the Inundations. Having witnessed this heart-rending sight tiic Jews were bun ished from the city, and were not even per mitted to see llicir /.ton from nliir oil. In the age of Constantine tliey were allowed to np pionehsoas to see I he city from the surrounding hills; —a mournful liberty, like that of permit ting mu uxile to see his native shores from the sea, but never laud. At length, tbe Jews VOL. XXV.—No. 31. were allowed to purchase of the Homan sol diers leave to enter Jerusalem once a year,—on the tlay when the city fell before Titus. And what to do ? How did tliey spend that one day ol the year t 1 will tell, tor I saw it. The mournful custom abide# to this day. I have said how proud and prosperous look ed the Mosque of Omar, with its marble buildings, its grecen lawns, and gaily dressed people.—some at prayer under the cypresses, some conversing under the arcades ; —female devotees in white sitting on the grass, and from the crevices of the stones, i. the only part remaining of the old Temple wall; and here the Jews come every Friday, to their place of Wailing, as it is called, to mourn over the fall of their Temple, and pray liir its restoration.— What n contrast did these humble people pre sent to the proud Mohammedans within!— The women were seated in the dust, —some wailing aloud, some repeating prayers with mo\ing lips, and others reading them fro.n books on their knees. A few children were at play on the ground : nnd ;onn’ aged men sat silent, their heads droopedon their breast Several younger men were leaning against the wall, —pressing their foreheads against the stones, ami resting their books on their clasped hands in the crevices. With some, this wailing is no form: for 1 saw tears on their cheeks, I longed to know if any had hope in their hearts, that they or their children ol any generation should pass that, wall, and should help to swell the cry “ Lift up your heads. O ye gates, that the King of glory may come in If they have any such hope; it may give some sweetness to this rite of humiliation. We had no such hope tiir them ; and it was with un speakable sadness that I. throne turned nway from the thought of the pride nnd tyranny within those walls, and the desolation without, carrying with a deep-lelt lesson on the strength of human faith, and the weak ness of the tie of brotherhood. Alas! all seem weak alike. Look at the three great places of prayer in the Holy City ! Here arc the Mohammedans eager to kill any Jew or Christian who may enter the the Mosque of Omar. There are the Christians ready to kill any Mohammedan or Jew who may enter the church of the Holy Sepulchre. Ami here are the Jews pleading against their enemies,—“Remember, O Lord, the children ot Edom in the day of Jerusalem, who said raze it, raze it, even to the founda tion thereof O, daughter of Babylon that art to be destroyed, happy shall lie be that re wardeth thee as thou hast served us. Happy shall he he that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones!” Such are the tilings done and said in the name of Religion ! The Flowers nnd the Coffin. Last week I was at a funeral. Two rooms were filled with friends, who had come to at tend the burial of a little girl. Her body lay in a coffin, on a marble, table in the middle of the parlor. Her sweet lips were closed, and her hands, folded over her bosom, were us cold as marble. By the side of the coffin was u silver cup. such as children use, ami in it was a bunch of fresh flowers. 1 dare say it was Emily’s cup. Whenever her father and mother look at it. they will always think of their child who used to drink out of it. It may be sorrowful to see those sweet flowers hy the side of a corpse. They were beautiful, but they were sad. Emily wus like these flowers. She grew up. and was as lovely as they. Now she is cut down and withered. • In a few hours the flowers will be dead al so.—But here is the difference. The flowers will never bloom again. They nre gone for ever. But Emily is not gone forever. That little body will live again. Christ takes care of it in the grave. 1 saw it put into the deep, dark, cold vault. Christ was buried in the same wav in the sepulchre. But he arose again, and that is a sign that F.niily will rise again, too. As surely as Jesus rose so surely will he raise this dear little one. When these flowers die, all is over with them. All their gay colors, all their sweet perfumes, are lost. But all is not over with F.milv. Her soul is not lost. It is with Christ. It is better to be with him than to be with us. The soul shall he joined to the body at the re surrection. Then soul and body vvill be hap py to all eternity. This is what I thought on looking at the silver cup and flowers beside tiie coffin. — Youth’s Penny Gazette. Flight ot Horses. About the 10th of July 1810, at two o’clock in the morning, white Col. R. M. Johnson’s regiment was en camped on the Peninsular, below Fort Wayne, in a beautiful grass plain, some of the horses that had pass ed the line of sentinels and got some distance up the St. Joseph,became alarmed and came running into the camp in great fright. This nlnrmed all the horses In the regiment, winch united in a solid column within the lines, and took three courses round the camp. It would seem almost incredible, but it is a fact, they appeared not to cover more than almut forty or sixty yards of ground, and yet their number was about six hundred The moon shone at the full, the camp waa an open pluin, and the scene awfully sublime. They at length forced their pissnge through the line*, overset several tents, nnd carried nway several pannels of fence, pass ing of! through the woods,and were,in a lew minutes, out of hearing of the loudest bells that belonged to the regiment. The neat tlay was spent in collecting them, some of which were found teu or twelve miles from iho camp up the St Joarpli, nnd about twenty or twen ty-five were never found, although pursued above twen ty miles. Tills alarming flight of horses ol that regi ment injured them more than could lie supposed, lor they had run so long in n compact body that very lew escaped being lamed, having their hind leet cut by the shoM of those that crowded on them. The writer of tills article was nn officer of the guard, and then on du ty. Tiic night being clear and calm, the moon rolling in full splendor, the (light of the horses, wliieh resem bled distant thunder, iho idea oi an mimetomc attack rom the Indians, and the ground of our enenmpmeut being [inved w itlt the tones of former warriors, all com bined to furnish one ot those awfully sublime Nighi Scenes that boggard all description. A similar flight of horses took pluce about the 88d of June, after the regiment arrived at Fort Meigs.— American rinre dotet. A HYMN OF JOY. I look on the bright nnd beautiful earth.
