Abraham’s Jiirth. [From Jaehar, the Lost Book of the Bible.] And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. But Nimrod went no more in of the Lord, and he became more wick ed than any of the men that lived before the flood, up to that day. And Nimrod made gods of wood and of stone and bowed down to them, and he rebelled against the Lord, and he taught all his servant and snbjects his own evil ways. And Mardon, the son of Nimrod, acted more wickedly yet than even his father, and whoso ever heard of his actions, would say: . ‘From the wicked cometh wickedness.’ And since then the saying was in ihe land: From the wicked cometh wickedness; and it hath become an adage in the language of all men from that time up to this very day. And Terah the son of Nahor, the chief of Nimrod’s army, was very great in those days, in the eyes of the king as well as in the eyes of all his servants, and the king and the princes all loved him and exalted him. And Terah took unto himself a wife and her name was Arnthe- lah the daughter of Carnebah.and she conceived and bare a son in those days. And Terah was seventy years old when she bare him, and Terah called the name of the son born unto him Abra ham saying: In these days the king has raised and exalted me over all the princes that are with him. And in the night that Abraham was born, all the servants of Terah and all the wise men and the astrologers of Nimrod came, and they ate and drank in the house of Terah and they were greatly rejoiced all night. And when the wise men and the astrologers left Terah’s house they lifted up their eyes unto heaven on that night to observe the stars; and behold a very large star came from the rising of the sun and ran about in the heavens and swallowed up four stars from the four winds of heaven. And the wise men and the astrologers were greatly as tonished at that spectacle, and the wise men re flected over the matter and they knew its mean ing at once. And they said to each other: This cannot be otherwise but in reference to the child that was born unto Terah, that he will be great and that he will be increased and exceed ingly multiplied, and that he will inherit all the earth, he and his children forever, and that he and his seed will slay great kings and possess themselves of their lands. And all the wise men and astrologers, went quietly to their homes that night. And in the morning they arose, and all the wise men and all the astrologers as sembled in the house appointed for their meet ings, and they spoke among themselves saying: Behold the sight we have seen last night is not known, and it hath not been communicated un to the king. And now if the king should come to the knowledge of that matter at some future time, then he will say unto us: Why have ye withheld from me all those things ? and all of us will have to die on that account. And now come and let us impart to the king all about the sight we have seen last night, as well as its interpretation, so that we may be free of all responsibility. And they did accordingly, and they went unto the king, and coming unto his presence; they bowed down be fore him to the ground and saluted him saying: May the king live, may the king live ! We have been informed that a son hath been born unto Terah, thy chief commander, and we weat unto his house last night, and we were eating and drinking and rejoicing in his house all night. And when we, thy servants, departed from the house of Terah, so that each of us should go to his home for the rest of the night, we lifted up our eyes towards heaven and beheld a very great star coming from the side of the rising of the sun in a very swift course, and it followed up four great stars from the four winds of heaven. And we, thy servants, were greatly astonished at that strange sight which we have seen and we were greatly terrified thereat. And we passed our judgement over that strange phenomenon, and we discovered in our wisdom the interpre tation of that spectacle in its correctness. For this all was seen on account of the child which was born unto Terah, meaning that he would become great and very numerous, and powerful, and that he would slay all the kings and inherit their lands, he and his children and his seed forever. And now, oh king our lord, we have informed thee correctly of what we have seen concerning that child, and if it so please the king we would say, that the kiDg give unto Te rah the value of that child, and we will slay him ere he grows up and increases in the land, to bring about the great evil, whereby we are all to be driven from the earth, and we, and our children, and our seed perish through his wick edness. And the king hearkened attentively unto these words, and they pleased him greatly, and he had Terah called, and Terah appeared before the king's presence. And the king said unto Terah: I have been informed that a son hath been born unto thee yesternight, and such and such things have been seen concerning him in the heavens. Now therefore give me that child, that I may slay him before his great wick edness will grow over us, and I will send unto thee his full value in silver and gold, unto thy house. And Terah replied saying: I have humbly listened to the words of my king; whatever the king pleaseth he can do with his servant. But, my king and lord, I would make known to king what hath occurred unto thy servant yesterday, and I would humbly be seech the king to give an advice unto his ser vant, and after my king shall have given his servant an opinion on that matter, I will answer unto the king concerning his words. And the king said unto Terah: Speak. And Terah went on saying: Long live the king ! It is but last night that Lyon, the son of Nimrod, came into my house saying: Let me have thy beautiful horse which the king hath given unto thee, and I will give thee its full value in gold and in silver, and I will fill thy house besides with straw and with Jfod- der. And I have bid him wait, until I shall have laid the matter before the king, and whatever the king would say concering that horse I would do. And now, my king, I have communicated unto thee these things, and according to the advice of the king I have acted. And when the king had heard tho words of Terah he was ex ceedingly wroth, and he considered him quite a tool. And the king answered: Art thou so ignorant and foolish, or hast thou lost thy reason to do such a thing, as to think of disposing of thy beautiful horse for silver and for gold, and the more less for straw and for fodder ? Art thou so short in silver and in gold and hast thou no means to buy straw and fod der to feed thy horse, that thou must be reduced to such extremes ? And what good will do thee all thy gold and silver, all thy straw and fodder if thou losest thy beautiful horse, the like of which does not exist in the whole earth, and which I, the king, have given unto thee ? And when the king had finished his speech Terah re- P Hathmy king really spoken these words? I beseech thee, oh king, what is it thou hast said unto me before: Give me thy son and we will slay him, and I will give unto thee his full val ue m silver and in gold And now my lord what shall I do with all the silver and gold af ter mv son is dead ? For I shaU have no one to inherit my fortune, and after I ami dead the same gold and silver would revert to the king who g And‘when the king heard the words of Terah the parable he brought concerning the king e k?ng P g“ew exceedingly wroth, and his anger kindled witbin him. And when Terah saw that the king was so wroth against him, he answered and said unto the king: All that I have is in the hand of my king, whatsoever the king pleaseth he can do uuto his servant, and also my child is in the hand of the king with his two older brothers, without money and without price. And the king re plied: Not so; but I will take thy son for his value. And Terah answered unto the king saying: I beseech thee, my lord and king, suffer thy ser vant to speak a word in the ears of my lord, and may the king hearken unto the words of his servant. And Terah said. May it please the king to grant me three days time, that I may bring the words of my lord the king before my wife and my household, and I will consult them con cerning that matter. And the king hearkened unto the words of Te rah, and the king gave him three days for re flection. And Terah departed from the pres ence of the king, and he hurried into his house and imparted the words of the king to his household And when they heard the words of the king they were greatly terrified. And on the third day the king sent unto Terah saying: Deliver now unto me thy son, for the value I have spoken of. And if thou failest to comply with my order, then I will send my messengers to slay thee and all that belongs to thy household, and there will not remain of thee and all that is thine even a dog. And Te rah seeing the urgent manner of the king, has tened and took the child of one of his maid-ser vants unto the king, and received the value thereof. And the Lord favored Terah’s course in that matter, so that Abram might be saved and not be slain. And the child which Terah brought unto the king, the king took and with his own hands he dashed its head against the ground, and spilt its brains upon the earth and killed it, thinking it was Abram. And the de ception remained a secret from that day on and all of the matter was finally forgotten from th > heart of the king, for it was the will of God that Abram should not be put to death. And Terah had taken Abram, and his mother, andthenurse, and secreted them in a cave, supplying them with food for a month, and bringing them all they needed month after month. And the Lord was with Abram and he grew up and he was in the cave for ten years. And the king and his princes and astrologers, and all the wise men, verily believed that Abram had been killed by the hands of the king. And Haran the son of Terah, Abram’s oldest brother, took a wife in those days; and Haran was thirty-nine years of age when he took unto himself a wife. And Haran's wife conceived and bare a son. and he called bis name Lot. And sbe conceived again and bare a daughter, and called her name Milcah, and once more she conceived and bare a daughter and she called her name Sarai. And Haran was forty-two years old when Sarai was born, and it was in the tenth year of the life of Abram. At that time Abram and his mother and her nurse, went forth from the cave, for all that occurred concerning him was entirely forgotten by the king, and by all his servants. And when Abra ham left the cave he went at once to the house of Noah and his son Shem, and Abram dwelt with them in their house to learn the knowl edge and fear of God, and all the ways of the Lord. And nobody knew Abram, and he min istered unto Noah and unto Shem for many days. And Abraham lived in Noah’s house for thirty-nine years, and Abram knew the Lord from his third year on, and he walked in the ways of the Lord even unto the day of his death according to the teachings of Noah and his son Shem.

Mountains ins anil Springs. peings, JfLA.April 4, 1878. I Blount Springs These celebrated mineral springs are situated immediately on the line of the South Alabama Railroad, one hundred and twenty miles north of Montgomery, and fifty-two miles south of Deca tur, in the most mountainous part of the State. Here, in one particular spot, nature appears to have encompassed all the powers of her healing resources, consisting of a group of health-restor ing springs that are visited annually by thous ands of wealthy pleasure-seekers, as well as by invalids of almost every description. These waters, judiciously used, seldom fail to effect permanent cures for obscure and chronic diseases, and to-day we can find thousands of people who are indebted to these sulphur waters for their very existence, and who can testify to their medicinal properties and healing qualities. Vice-President Win. R. King, of Ala., Prof. Garland of Vanderbilt University, Tenn., and President Barnard, of Columbia College, N. Y. are of this class. The sourrounding country is picturesque and beautiful, and for healthfulness is unsurpassed by any inhabited portion of the United States, as the entire region abonds in springs of pure free-stone, lime-stone and chalybeate water. The free, bracing, electric, mountain air experienc ed in this charming locality adds much to the good effects wrought by the healing waters. Its hills and valleys are cleansed by rushing streams, there being no such disagreeable things as swamps, pools ot stagnant water and un healthy air in this region. Amid these grand, and lofty mountains the most enthusiastic lover of romantic views can find full scope for the indulgence of his imagin ation. No language is expressive enough to de scribe the rugged grandeur of these mountain ranges, the sublime beauty of the broad and extended panorama that presents itself to the eye of the spectator, as he stands upon one of the lofty peaks of Duffie’s Mountain and surveys range after range—peak after peak, each, seem ingly, vieing with the other to rear its head above that of its neighbor, the scene extending until sight fails, and the far-off blue horizon seems to close down upon the enchanting vision. No Amerioan should entertain a desire to go abroad among the mountains of Switzerland, to see nature in its wild and grand sublimity, when he has within the borders of his native country such rare and beautiful scenery. The atmosphere on these mountains is cool, invigorating, and singularly salubrious, pecu liarly adapted to those suffering from the first stages oi consumption. This place extends numerous attractions, that afford delight and benefit to all classes of visitors. To the invalid, is afforded a cool, delightful climate, one in which a blanket in summer is not unfrequently necessary. To the scientist the untold stores of mineral wealth, deposited in this region, are opened for investigation. To the sportsman and pleasure-seeker, the forests and rivers abounding with the finest game and fish, and food lor many a pleasant memory or marvellous story, when he returns to his home and friends. The visitor may always find plea sure and amusement, here on the mountains, by the streams that ripple .through the groves, and in visiting the numerous wonderful caves that abound on the hillsides. Little Mountain Maid. The Bishop of Manchester was present re cently at a young ladies’ school, and a class in Latin were up for examination, pouring forth to his lordship a list of Latin words, with the English translation. They came to the word vicissim, and, this being one of the schools that have adopted the new pronunciation, they said promptly, ‘ We-kiss-im,’ ‘ we-kiss-im—by turns.' ‘Oh, do you?’ said the bishop; ‘then I don’t wonder at your adopting the new pronuncia tion.’ And White resigns, (a) B Kt 2 is accepted as best; White can now keep up his attick. (b) Here he should have continued in the beaten path of B K Kt 5, the text move, however, has its votaries and admirers; P K Kt 3 is also played here. (c) We do not see that the Q P need support the object attained by his last, and should have played Kt B 3 to develop the Queen’s flank, and believe this to be a losing move. (d) The winning back of the Pawn by BXKt and BxP would be ruin. (e) Kt B 3 would be a counter-iritant; we do not think he would take the Kt with B, as the White Q would be strongly posted at B 3 and shortly command both Rook’s Pawns, and not to remove the Kt appears equally disas trous. The position is highly instructive. FOUND MEN, Prepare for business by attending MOORE’S BUSINESS UNIVERSITY, Atlanta, Georgia. The best practical Business School in the country.
