Christ I3 Doomed.
The Tablet says : A correspon¬
dent of Notes and Queries extracts
from the IColnisebe Zeitung what
is called “a correct transcript of the
sentence of death pronounced
against Jesus Christ.” The follow¬
ing is a copy of the most memora¬
ble judicial sentence which has ev¬
er been pronounced in the annals
of the world—namely, that of death
against the Savior—with the re¬
marks that the journal LeDroit has
collected, the knowledge of which
must be interesting in the highest
degree to every Christian. Until
now, we are not aware that it has
ever been made public in the Ger¬
man papers. The sentence is word
for word as follows;
“Sentence pronounced by Pon¬
tius Pilate, Intendant of the Prov¬
ince of Lower Galilee, that Jesus of
Nazareth shall suffer death by the
cross. In the seventeenth year of
the "eign of the Emperor Tiberius
and on the 25th of the month of
March, in the most holy city of
Jerusalem, during the Pan'ificateof
Annas aud Ca ; phas, Pontius Pilate
Intendant of the Province of lower
Galilee, sitting in judgment in the
presidential seat of the Praetors,
sentences Jesus Christ, ot Na/areth,
tc death on a cross between
two robbers, as the numerous and
notorious testimonials of the peo¬
ple prove; (1). Jesus is a mis
leader. (2). He has excited the
people to sedition. (3). He is an
enemy to the laws. (4). He calls
himself the Son of God. (5). He
calls himself falslcy the King of Is¬
rael. (6). He went into the Tem.
p 1 e followed by a multitude carry¬
ing palms in their hands. Orders:
The first centurion. Quintius Corne¬
lius, to bring him to the place of ex¬
ecution, forbids, all persons, rich or
poor to prevent the execution
of Jesus. The witnesses who have
signed the execution against Jesus
are: (1), Daniel Robani, Phari¬
see : (2). John Zorahabel; (3).
Raphael Robani; (4}. Capet. Je¬
sus to be taken out of Jerusalem
through the gate of Tournea.”
The sentence is engraved on a
plate of brass in the Hebrew lang¬
uage. and on its sides are the fol¬
lowing words: * “A similar plate
has been sent to each tribe.” It
was diccovered in the year 1280, in
the city of Aquill (Aquilla?) in the
Kingdom of Naples, by a search
made for the discovery of Roman
antiquities, and remained there un¬
til it was found by the Commissa¬
ries of Alt in the French Army of
Italy. Up to the O ne of the cam¬
paign in southern Italy, it was pre¬
served in the sacristy of the Carthu¬
sians, near Naples, where it was
kept in a box of ebony. Since then I
the relic has been kept in the Chap¬
el of Caserta. The Carthusians ob¬
tained by their petitions that the
plate might be kept by them, which
was an acknowledgment of the sacri¬
fices which they made for the
French army. The French transla¬
tion was made literacy by members
of the Commission of Arts. Denon
had a fac simile of the plate engrav¬
ed, which was bought by Lord How¬
ard on the sale of his cabinet for
29S0f. There seems to be no histo¬
rical doubt as to the authenticity of
this. The reasons of the sentence
correspond exac ’v w th those of
the Gospels.
A farmer had a son who showed
no special auiitufc for business, and
he was puzzled what to do with h ; m #
He concluded to t v a.i e.rperment,
so he locked ihe boy in a room in
which the.e was only a Bible, an ap¬
ple and a dol'a’. A few minutes la
ter he stole qj 'e ly to the room. He
made up his mind that if he oond
ihe boy eating the apple he would
make a good farmer; if he were
reading tne Bible he should be
t aioed for the pulpit, and if he had
taken (he money his success as a
broker, the father thought, was as¬
sured.—Upon enteiing the room be
found die buy Bitting upon the Bi¬
ble, eaiiog the apnle, with the dollar
in his pocket. The boy became an
able politician, and may be a candi¬
