Tho Cutting War.
Thin gro'tl ptovernmopt of the TTnil.-I
Staton of America, 1.- about to get into r,
war with her f'islor republic of Mexico.
A little, oM, fcnacy, impudent editor nt
El I’iiao, Texas, published, in Ida paper,
Homething about a Mexican editor, just
over the line at l’tpio del N’ort, that wftf*
forbidden by the lawn ofeeney and tho
Mexican government, and circulate ! it
in Mexico. Not content with tlda.hr
went over there to see that it win prop
orly"circulated , mil to enj lit. fun of
seeing the othor fellow and Ida friends
squirm under it. when the Mexicans ar
rested him and put him in jail so soo
him squirm. Tho American government
demanded his release upon tho ground
that he was nn American citizen, and
could not be punished by.Mexico for an
net committed iri the United States, and
that, being an American citizen, nomnt
ter wlmt he had done, he wrs ns good re*
ft Mexican, anyway, Mexico refused to
release him, and sentenced him to a long
term of imprisonment, and to pay a
heavy tino. And thus tho matter rests,
for the present.
In tho meantime the citizens of both
governments have proceeded to lash
themselves into a fury nbout it. If the
affair over was a molehill, it’s a moun
tain now. There’s a heap of hurann n»-
turo in it. The Mexican idea is, lie’s a
a saucy little rascal and I’ll whip him or
die. The American position’is, he’s my
boy end you shan’t whip him; if you do
f’ll whip you. Yon turn him alonse and
lot him come home, and if he’s done
wrong I’ll whip him myself, but you
shan’t do it, no how.
For onr part, “onr voice ia for war"
and soniohody else to light it. Wo are
too strong and great, a government to let
a little Mexican republic, run over us
rough shod—especially when sho hns so
much nice territory on onr borders that
wo could govern so much better than she
does. But she lias knocked tho chip oil
of our lint, and wo say make tier put it
right back, this minute, or slap her into
tits.

The malicious wickedness of the world
is 811911, that it is greedily grasping for
scandal. But there is a selfish joy id
good thoughts, acts, and words. Self
approbation follows it.
The neutral, self-loving disposition, is
cold sj logistic, frigid and reserved,
neither speaking good or evil. But the
man of Brotherly Love is warm to tho
core. Let us therefore be vigilant, stead
fast, and immovable ill all our good
thoughts, acts, words and deeds, that we
be proved to be under tho tongue of good
report
And now, in order to establish a few
predicates laid down, I shall Imve to re
turn to the .society of Druids. They were
a religious sect, peculiar both to Gaul;
and I’ritiaD.and Tacitus says, both na
tions had their Druids, and from their
antiquity, and peculiar station, that some
of their riles, and ceremonies were re*
! tainod in the then formation of our so
eiety, for wo find that in 1110 they u. ;
in regular organised bodies in Prance, j
nnd built a college ut Orleans, and by
their regularity and order, exerted so
powerful an influence, that they became
one of the two estates of France. And
to these was committed tiie care, of
providing sacrifices, dictating laws for
Divine worship, and deciding the right
of property. The lenders of this sect
were chosen and elected out the boat
families in the realm, and from their i
birth and oflieo were Ik Id in llio greatest
veneration. They wen educated and
1 made proficient in astronomy, geometry,
natural history, politics and geography. ,
We find an arch druid 111 evviy county,
who wus chief. At the clo.au of each
year they hold a general festival. They .
decorated tlnir siicriiiooti with mistle
toe and branches of over-green oak;
they recited mystic verse, supplicating
the return of spring; they wore da l in
white apparel, and the victims for firs
saerilioo wore twowh ito belts. They
wore forbid to write thoir sacred verses,
mid many of them spent 2 1 ) 3ears jn learn
ing those scientific distiches, by not writ
ing them. The secrets were kept from
thevulgni. buotonius says that this so
enraged the Bounins, that Augustus
prohibited it, and Claudia-' Cesar abol
ished it, becuu e the secret was not writ.- j
ten, sous to bo discovered.
The altars of the Druids wore like the I
Jewish altar of Moses and Aaron. H -uco
we see the typo running back, to remote
antiquity. Even a portion of tho marks
on the curious ophod, wore worn by the
chief Druids, on certain occasions. And
now l think 1 have established one pre
dicate. If so, TiH well.
Now, to get at another, I shall have to
go to tho tabernaclo. The proportions
of tho different measures of tho taber
nacle provo it to be an imitation of the
world's system; for tho third part of the
tabernacle that was written the four pil
lars, w.aa considered peculiar to Cod in
this: the priests were not allowed to en
ter. But the spaeo of 20 cubits repre
sented (lie sea and land, on which men
lived. When Moses had divided tho
tnbcrnnolo into !t parts. 2 of these were
allowed to the priest, as common to all.
Ho denoted the land and the sea by cer
tain marks, such as were on the ophod,
thereby denoting that God’s place was
inaccessible to man, in a mortal state.
\ud when lie "ordered 12 loaves to be
set on the table, ho signified tho 12
mouths, that make a year. And when
lie mad the candlestick of seventy part,;,
he . tlx intimated the Decani, And
: the seven lamps, on the candlestick, they j
j were eiublamatic of the seven courses of
i the preists. The veils being made of
I font different tilings, they declared tho
four elements, air, earth, fire,and water,
Tho fine linen signified the earth, be
cause it grew out, of it. Tho purple 1
was emblematic, i f sea water, bo auti
that is the prevailing eo’uu of a deep son.
Aud it? to the blue, \*.' need but look at
tho sky to convince us that it repre
sented air. And the scarlet has in all
ages, been an emblem of lire. The vest
ment of tho high priest, being of fine
linen, represented the earth. The bine
represented ttie sky. Now the breast
plate was placed iu tho middle of the
epbod. The girdle that was around the
high priest, repro-sen-ed tin* ocean, be
cause the ocean encircles the earth.
Each of the sardonyx,*, repiesuiitod the
sun aud moon.
Josephus says that the ca-a.tiest.ck

We think it flit* duty of everybody to be

love, for ye yourselves are taught of God
to love, one another. I do believe in
sanctification. I will that men pray
every where, lifting up holy hands. We
are commanded to work our own salva
tion with trembling and fear. We are
commanded to pray without ceasing.
We ought to serve the Lord with all our
hearts. He came here to save us if wc
would only ask him in the way ho has
commanded. What I have written is in
