Daniel, 2d chapter,34th and 35th verses
The sermon evinced an intimate ac
puainfance with History and as a litera
ry production is excelled by none. As
ter the sermon, the multitude proceed

profusion ’’ with the substantiate and

to be remarkably even and regular, and I
it was evidently as reliable a time piece

Kakoitrrmon—A Fantasy,
A wile fantastic dream—a mere mirage of miuil.
ycsii's.
You ask me then why I am here. If
to hold the opinions which I hold, and
to attempt therefrom a solution of that
.Edipug Riddle, the Enigma of Life, be
madness, then unquestionably, I am
mad,— but I do not believe there are
many who will raise the question of my
sanity, when I state what these opin
ions are. Few can say, they have not
felt and acknowledged their truth at
some period of their exiaiatice. It is
therefore not this, but the peculiar prac
tical workings of these opinions which
have made me an inmate of these walls.
And what 1 have to tell, each one ol
you may attaclr to it what credence he
wist, and albeit I,who trace these pages,
will erelong slumber in the cold em
braces of the “shadow,” the nameless
tenant of some nameless grave ; you
who read, will he among the living of
men, and tfie time will yet come, when
to doubt were heresy, for truth cannot
fall of itself by the wayside and perish,
but will rise into the Life Everlast
ing.
1 am come of a race noted for the vig
or of their fancy and that idiosyneracy
of their intellects which induced them
to seek for realities in the realms of the
purely ideal. For many generations,
the blood of tiro Collouni had flowed in
one unbroken stream, through the be
ing of the daughters of its own House
—coalaminated by admixture with none
others ; for the founders of our race
were of gentle birth and prowd withal;
and they gave an oath among them
selves that their fortune and nobility
should not he divided: for thus only
could they hope to take a place among
the mighty of the Earth. And very
miserable was the end of that ono who
failed to comply v.itlqthcsc stipulations,
for he died by his brothers hand.
And it was owing to those circum
: stances, perhaps, that I inherited so
i many of the characteristics—character
; istics which have tinged the minutest
action of my life, aud made it what it is
—a succession of day dreams and splen
did fantasties; to be followed by a night
1 of depression and outer darkness, more
y appalling than the denizens of this
e earth ever conceived—a darkness ap
* palling, because of its silence—which
y is not silence, for the awful voices of
- night come to me in dreams, in the
language of the hoary past. And they,
’ the dreams, move around me uneasily.
. and their features are those of the long
forgotten dead: and turning their im
: ploring c-yts on me, they say: “There
was an epoch in the night of time when
1 you were, and yet were not, when as
an atom of divine sentience, you won
dered through space, and struck the
planets in yonr flight; and you, whose
existence dates back in its first essence,
farther than the creation of earth, if
you would see God, may not do so un
lil you have broken down the barriers
of those fallacious dogmas which have
■so long held in thraldrom intellects of
the children of men,” and then the
dreams, one by one, would fade away,
and their memory would he ail.
I have said that my nature partook
largely of that of my ancestors, and
this doubtless was the leasou which
propted my mind to seek aliment in
the wild and fantastic literature of the
age in which I lived,—among the
books in the library which the peculiar
taste of my ancestors had collected,
was one I had read a thousand times,
and over which I would sit idle, dream
ing for hours. It spoke of the valient!
deeds of the warriors of our house on
the blood dyed fields of Palestine. And
perhaps the reason why I pored so in
tently over its dusty pages, may he sure ■
inised when I say, that in the character j
of Sir Lauuce’.ot, the hero, I fancied. I 1
perceived the very impersanation cf S
myself : not an action attributed to j
him by Iris historian, but I felt that in
it, I too was concerned- the more I read, ]
the more deeply this Impression took .
root in my mind, and that which, at:
first, I had only treated as a morbid I
fancy, a vague shadowy suspicion, at j
. length assumed the tone of absolute
; certainty. Were B>r Launcelot and !
j myself identical ? And when the bisto- |
j nan proceeded to relate the manner of]
his death, I remember every Oircunr- '
stance as plainly as if it were yesterday. i
The cliatge the shivering of the lance j
—the fall—the headless body, and its i
burial in the town colors of the Collan
ni, all, all, are impressed on n.v ;
memory in characters'.’. .ver to he for
gotten.
And thus I am dead, and yet live,—a
human automaton, a living, breathing
nonentity. 0 paradox, of all paradoxes
the most strange, for which there is no
explanation, but in the idea of the me
tauopsyohosis—and of a truth, the doc
trine of the transmigration cf scute of
fers the only solution. I repeat, that]
the true solution may be found in the i
teachings of the Metampsyehoei: hut
this will never he admitted, so long as:
the people are dazzled by the tinsel and j
glitter of the false Philosophy of the]
Metaphysics, which establishes a line of i
1 demarcation between mind and matter.
Mind is as much a part of matter, as man |
is a part of God.

t Caress—Great Exploit ol A’ r. MorpSiy
nt Paris.
The following js a translation for :b-.‘
s Philadelphia Bulletin, from the Paris;
• Presse, of September 29th:
, There was on Monday last a great
meeting of chess amateurs at the Case
■ le la Regtnee. As we have announced,
I the young American, Mr. Morphy, took]
. part in an almost incredible strife.
Seated on n faulted. turned toward the
• wall, Morphy contested simultaneously
■ with eight adversaries, each placed be-j
i j fore his chess-board in the following’
] order :
1, Air. Baucher ; 2, Mr. Burnt ::h : .
j Mr. Bonuetnan: 4, Mr. Guibert; -5, i
|Mr. Lequesne; 0, Mr. Foster ; 7, Mr.;
| Preti; 8, Mr. Seguin.
i The game began at 1 o'clock, each of
! Morphy’s adversaries playing Jn turn.
■ When he played he, after an instant’s;
reflection, and very often without it, 1
mentioned the piece or the pawn to be]
• moved and where it should be placed.
Notwithstanding the talent of his ad-;
veisaries, who had abundant time to j
calculate, having in this respect eight j
- chances to his one, and notwithstanding i
the immense advantage of seeing their,
, | boards, Morphy did not manifest the j
'.least embarrassment among the most]
" 1 complicated phases of the whole eight!
3 1 games. The answer came forth every |
(. time fair and squat e.
At seven o’clock one of the adversu- 1
- hies of Morphy was unable to play Jon- ]
: cor, being stopped by an unexpected]
. check-mate. Half an hour later two]
. Imorc gave it up in despair. At-ninel
' ’o'clock’Mr. Lequesne obtained a drawn;
'jgame. Finally, at ton o’clock, Mor-j
5 iphy, who, during tire whole nine hours;
. iof the sitting, had not arisen or taken]
the least refreshment, accepted the!
' postponment, of Guibert’s gam . and ’
, 1 conquered his last adversary, Mr. rie- j
|guin, who fought to his last pawn. ;
• Os the eight game.-, Morphy fairly I
- ] won six and lost none.
, I The result was received with wild]
shouts of applause.
The real marvel of the game was)
t ] not the certainty and promptness of
si every play of tho young American, n j
_ the singular coolness with which hr*
’ met his adversaries ; it was the Iner
t; ible effort of memory. I
e ] It would he very difficult for the most i
skillful player to conduct a single game]
without aboard before his eves ; sincei
'■ lit is necessary to keep before the eyes!
Ii ;the exact position of all the pieces.--:
C Did not Morphy accomplish the itnpos j
1 jsible in thus keeping before his eyes,
-;the continual changing condition of
. j eight games.
] The peculiarity of Mr. MV.-.-phy's tue
’ ] tics is simply that, in his early moves.
’ j he makes it impossible for his adversa
-; ry to castle. It will bo readily under*
. stood that this manoeuvre must have a
] serious effect on the play of his adver
-1 .saries.
