EDITons: Dear Sirs :-Some months since, if you have not forgotten, I wrote You a letter about Denmark and its Capital. This letter if I re member rightly, was never finish ed, but coitained the promise that it v:.u be some time in future so this is sent to fulfill in part that compact, hoping that the time which has elapsed since my first is not too great to make the present communication altogetheruninter esting. I proceed therefore, with out further remarks or apologies, to make a few comments on Thor waldsen's Museum, which is one of the principal sigh s in the Capi tal. This Museum was built by sub eription to contain the works of Thorwaldsen, which he had given to his native city. It is in the lbrm of a parallelogram, and in the court in the centre, by his owu request, was built a tomb to Contain his renain:7, which were deposited there Gth Sept., 1S4S thus making his Museum, likewise his Mausoleum. Thorwaldscn was the son of a ship carpenter from Iceland, and was born in Copenhagen, 1770. .t an early age he acquired a pas sion for drawing. which soon led him to Rome. where he became a IPuptil of the great Canova. He was a genius by nature. and a Man of unwavering perseverance; yet he had but little patronage till he was about to leave Italy, when the statue of his ".Tason" at tracted the attention ofan English matn. After that l is fortune changed, anid his orders were more numerous than lie could execute. 'ihen:ce till the hour of his death, lhe basked in the cheering, sun shine of Pr'osperity and roya! favor. This sudden chan.ge was the cause of hxis establishii ng hximuselft in the * [oly City, which lie did nt leave till six vears before his death, whmich occurrerd at the theatre in 1844. Hi s reception in Copenhagen Sept.. I .;$when1' he, after a n a bsence f eighiteen years, returned to the' hand of his nativity in the vessel which brought over a part of his work s intended for the~ Mu scaum-is depirted ai la freco on one of the e'xterior sides; and on the of her, the conxveyance of these work totheMusum.His great and last work, --T'he Angel of 1Baptim," is represenlted nearest thle en tran'e-wichl nat urally owinig to its n:atuare and worth, should Ih a v~ e precedence. Thelx same alliaion to Thorwaldsen's immnortal genius which is Seenl on rthe wa!!s in the court-yard, is also found in, thi decorat ions of the faceade ; in the Victoria, erected on the roof, who stops her quadri ga over the entrance-and in the capIitals of the~ corner pilasters, on which in fronxt triump)hant god desses are represented driving in chariots-anid on the sides Sol and Luna, who with their swift steeds, raise themselves aloft to conquer darknmxess. Th le Victoria on the quadriga, all of which is cast in bronze and after models from dif ferenit masters, was a present of jIing Christian~ VIIL. The contents of the Muscum are of a twofold nature: the works executed by Thiorwaldsen himself, adthe objects of art from ancient and modern times, which ho had collected during hins longt lie and with which his dwelling a n d :teliers were adorned. The most notedl of the large statutes are those of the poet Schiller, with apotheosis on the pedestal-the genius of poetry, and the goddess of victory ; and Pope Pius VII in his papal chair-at the sedis two female figures representing Divine * Wisdom and Strength, and at the foot, the arms of the Pope held by * two little angels The finest frieze is "Alexander tihe Great's Tri umphal entry into Babylon"-the diesign is very fine, and is gene rally admired by every one; but the gems~ of the Museum are the statues of "'Hector and Priam," anxd \ enuis with the Golden Ap pi. The latter is the artist's own con,ception, and if not equal t the In s de Xed:lcis--it eer I! loes naught by the co Leeih hs n most of his finest works, are all on the first floor; but as we ascend the broad marble stair-case, we come, on the first landing, to the colossal and majestic statue of "Jason with the Golden Fleece," famous as having first attracted the attention of the world, and from the completion of which his fortunes suddenly changed. This gigantic statue, which is twelve and a half feet high, was carved from a solid block of Venetian marble, it is said, took four oxen to haul from the quarry to the place of exportation ! The rooms on the second floor -about thirty-five in number contain a fine and extensive col lection of statuettes, paintings, bronzes, casts, et cetera ; besides a very valuable cabinet of Egyp tian, Grecian and Roman coins. In the last of the rooms visited, is shown the furniture of Thorwald sen's sitting room, arranged in exactly the same manner as when he last used it. Besides the fur niture, it contains several portraits of his family, a bust of Martin Luther-by himself-the unfin i.hed design of his "Daabcns En gel," which was intended, as he said, to be the chf-d'oeucre of all his work, and two beautiful bas reliefs-"T.hetis dipping Achilles in the river Styx," and "Alexan der seduced by Thais to burn the palace in Purcepolis." Near the design of his last work stands his little bronze clock, pointing to 6 o'clock and 10 minutes P. M., the precise hour that summoned the soul of this, one of the greatest sculptors of modern times, before the presence of its Maker. In my next, I will make a few remarks on the University, the theatres, amusements and social life in Copenhagen. SPERO. Fair Warning. Cr.EELEY ON TrIE READMISSTON OF wi!ITTEMORE. "CONU E S, o TrE PEN ITENTIAaY. Under the hea'l of "Congress, or the Pei:tntiary," w3 find the fbllowing outspoken leading edi torial in the. New York Tribune of .Ionday last: A man is presently to offer him self at the bar of the IIouse for readmission, concrni ng whom the same IIouse recently adopted this resolution: .1?esolcedJ, That B. F. Whitte more, late meinber from the First District of South Carolina. did make apnointments to the Milita tarv Academy at West Point and the Naval Academy at Annapolis in violation of law, and.that such appointments were influenced by pecuniary considerations, and that his condluct in the premises has bee.n such as to show him unwor thy of a seat in the IIouse of Rep resentatives, and is therefore con (emned as conduct unworthy of the representative of the people. Is this corrupt man, who was unworthy of a seat three months ago, to be readmittd as worthy now ? We hear that lie has been telegraphing to his friend and counsel, General Butler, the news of his triumphant rc-eletion ; that he confidently expects to be ad mitted without dispute ; that re putable members are depjlorin.g it in a helpless sort of way, and goIng about dolefully asking each other, "hIow can we prevent it ?" Really we do not know. The Iouse is made the sole judge as to the qualifications of its mem bers. Once it seems to have had pretty decided notions conecrning the qualifications of Mr. B. F. Wh ittemore. It grew less decided in some similar cases ; finally it disgraced itself by permitting Mr. Butler, of Tennessee, to remain, albeit as guilty as Whittemore himself; now, perhaps, it may think Mr. Whittemore possessed of all the qualifications required for its present standard. It is the sole judge. But we can assure memb,ers that the time is at hand when a larger body of voters will be called to sit in judgment. Thus far the Demo crats have promptly spurned and cast out every- member of their party found guilty of this cadet ship infamy. We assumed great virtue at the outset ; then we fur nished able counsel for the Con gressional cadet merchants; next we excused one because he had been an unusually active Republi can, and after that the whole busi ness broke down. We tell gen tlemen that we have had fully as much of this sort of thing as we mently protest against assuming any more party responsibilities in behalf of the carpet-bag Congress men. Here is a man notoriously guilty of shameful and criminal acts. If the United States au thorities had not already neglected their duty in the case, he would have been admitted to the peni tcntiary of South Carolina, just about the time he is approaching the bar of the House to take afresh upon his perjured lips the oath of office. The. law of Congress ex plicitly provides that if any mem ber of Congress shall, directly or indirectly, receive any pecuniary or other valuable consideration for procuring any office or place under the government, he shall be liable to indictment for misde meanor in a United States Court, and, upon conviction, shall pay a fine not exceeding ten thousand dollars, and be imprisoned in the penitentiary for a term not ex ceeding two years, and be there after disqualified from holding any office of honor, profit or trust un der the Government of the United States. The House has resolved that he has done these things ; it has itself prescribed this penalty for the doing of these things; it now asks whether, ignoring the guilt, and defying its own. law, it shall readmit Mr. Whittemore perhaps that he may vote for the repeal of the odious law! We have consistently urged uni versal suffrage and universal am nesty as the true solution for the problem presented at the close of the war by the conquered South. We have never held that negro suffrage, coupled with disfranchise ment of whites, afforded such a solution. We point now to its disgraceful workings in the case of this man Whittemore, and ask "honorable" members-Whitte more himself is soon to show an admiring world what this high title, "honorable," means-to con sider-the result and draw their own conclusions. ANOTHER REPUBLICAN J 0 U R N A L DISGUSTED AT THE PRANKS OF THE RADICAL RING IN SOUT1 CAROLINA. (From the Philadelphla Telegraph.) We have before referred to the corrupt ring of adventurers that now rules South Carolina, and has made Republicanism a term of re proach with every honest citizen of that State. After Whittemore was driven from the House, he demanded from his fellow plun derers a re-election to vindicate himself. Governor Scott had but to take the stand demanded by every consideration of official and personal integrity, and Whitte more would have been driven from South Carolina as he was from Washington. But he could not strike at the disgraced Congress man without striking at himseff. Congress has decided that either laws or individual action calculated to intimidate legal voters vitiates a majority, if employed in further ance of that majority. Will it now inquire into the laws and acts of officials of South Carolina, by which the defeat of Whitte nore was rendered impossible, re ardless of the vote cast by the eople ? If the Republicans in Conrecss do not vindicate the name of the Republican party from complicity with the system atic corruption and lawlessness of the banded thieves in South Caro lina and other Southern States, Republicanism will become a hiss ing rep)roach both North and Soth, and the better elements of the nation will accept any form of opposition to overthrow the ad venturers who cloak the most shameless wrongs under the shad ow of the Repubilian party. Let Congress meet this question now with a promp)tness and determina ion that will demonstrate to the nation that it can have no sympa thy or followship with the politi cal highwaymen who are nowv roaming through official channels in the South, in the name of Re publicanism; and the Republicans in the North, and the Republicans in the South, will be saved from the defeat that must -inevitably follow open disgrace. Let Whit temore be met at the threshold and sent back, because he left a criminal, and returns doubly erim inal by the frauds ho employed to effect his pretended re-election, and honesty in the South will take courage and bring forth good fruits, and Republicanism every where will be vindicated from complicity with the vampyres who have so basely prostituted Repub lican power i n t h e Southern States. cBrid get, I wish you would step over and see how old Mrs. Jones is this morning." Bridget return ed a in few minutes with the in formation that Mrs. Jones was seventy-t wo years, ten months and eight days old. Those odious long dresses are again to come in voguc for ladies. The short drsses are too neat and pretty to be abandoned for the hideous dust-scraper. But Quip says ladies-are pretty in any A Curious Story. The Elmira Advertiser publish es and comments thus on a cir cumstance printed in our columns some time since : Some time ago, We related an incident connected with a little girl in Ithaca, when about dying, though she still remained on this side, could see into the "far be yond" and relate to those stand ing near what she saw. A still more remarkabie case of a similar nature recently happened in Ot tumwa, Iowa, and is vouched for by the Muscatine journals. It oc curred at the death of Major Charles E. Fulton, aformerMayor of the city of Ottumwa. There seems to have been no flurry nor excitement at the death-bed, save that caused by that deep grief in separable from such occasions. The dying man was perfectly calm and had entire p)ssession of his senses and bade his wife and children farewell with perfect composure. He knew they were well provided for and he was ready to go. IIe sank rapidly the latter part of the day, and about dusk appeared to have passed away. He lay, however, but ten minutes in such a state, arousing himself with the exclamation, faintly uttered: "Not unto us, oh Father! but unto Thee, be all the glory." Pausing a moment, he exclaimed, "Five millions !" His wife leaning over him asked, -'What does he mean? Spirits ?" The whispered answer was, "Yes, that is it." Then followed the conversation as set down below, which was accurately recorded by the members of the family, with in a few hours after his death : His wife then asked, "are they redeemed spirits ?" Answer "Yes. Some came yesterday; others are just getting in." His wife then said, "And you, darling, swell the number ?" Assented to by "yes." She then asked, are they coming to welcome you home ?" Answer, "Yes." New ton asked, "ChXa.ly. do_ yoknow them ?" Answ c.=" ikQw all that I knew on earth." His wife asked, "Do you see father ?" An swer-"Which father ?" (During the night and day previous. to test his failing sight, he had re peatedly been asked if he could see certain persons standing near; Father Mast was then standing by the bedside-hence his reply -he doubted whether she meant spiritual or natural sight. His wife said: "Father Fulton, (died six years ago.") Answer-"Yes." Question by the same-"Did you see his little sister Mary, who died long ago in Virginia?" An swcr-'-Yes." She then exclaim ed, "Then (10 we know each other in IIeaven." IIe turned his Ihce toward her with a faint smile, ex pressive of knowledge and surpris at the doubt, and whispered, "Cer tainly." Newton then asked "Charley is in heaven then, in re cality ?"-Answecr-"Yes." A fter a moment, Newton asked. "Then is it so terrible to die ?" Answr-"No." IHis wife an swered this by "Is it a door thai opens to admit us into a better life ?" Answer-"Yes." By the same-does it look bright ?" An swer-"Sunny and fair," admit ting an instaHt afterwards, "I am just catching glimpses." Question by his wife-"Brighter than any thing-you ever saw on earth ?' Answer-"Oh, Yes." And again he sank away, and the last words had fallen from his lips, closing in death, and thus ended the tri umph which w-as the natural out rowth of a life, the motto oi hich had been the Golden Rule and "'gee on earth and good will to all men." Apart from the touching natur< of the incident, the account oi which it is hardly possible for sensitive per-son to read withoni being moved to tears, there art interesting questions that it gives rise to which it would be well though hard to answer. Satisfied of the truth of the account, are we to believe that persons really see what they -descr-ibe, or is il something in the nature of a pie ture wrought by their hopes anc by that which has been taughi them ? Does the frequent occur rence of sucdh incidents as we hav< related show to us that we arc, ir time, to know more of that here after which is now so dim and un certain ? That we are approach ing a period of the earth's life ful of marvels and wonders, such at will disclose to us the reason anc cause of all things ? if the futur< and the hereafter and heaven car be see'n by one man while still ir this life, why not all ? The Courier Journal tells of a youni fellow in that city who, last winter, wa so bard up that he had no shirt te wear but who about six weeks ago got fly dollars and went for the tiger so soe cessfully as to make it $26,700. Th. Courier-Journal does.not tell of the thou sands who commence this business wnli a great deal more than $26,700, and ge down to a pauper's grave at public ex Brigandage. The jokes of the European bri .gands are being imitated in South Carolina. A correspondent of the Charleston News, writing from Marion, S. C., under date of the 16th, say s : The store of Captain W. S. E' lerbe and .M-r. Samnel Watson was robbed in a manner which almost causes admiration from the peen liar boldness exhibited by the thieves. Captain Thos. E. Stan. ley had charge of the store, and was, as usual, attendi.ag to his business, when at 8 p. ii., he was seized before any possible resis tance could be made, forced to give the robbers the keys to the safe, and with wife and cook, locked in the counting-room of the store. The robbers fastened the win dows securely, and postinggaurds, they commenced plundering. As a customer would come he would be siezed, his life threatened in case of an out-cry, and marched into this nondescript jail. Eight teen persons were finally thus im mured. Mrs. Stanley's in fant, in the dwelling house adjoining, com menced to cry, and in obedience to her earnest entreaties, Capt. S. requested the robbers to let him go after his little child, and also that of his cook, in her house. The robbers humanely granted this request, guarding the Cap tain to the houses and back to his place of imaprissonment. When they were ready to leave they handed -the prisoners a lighted candle, and after warning .them they would be shot in case they attempted to come out before day, they went off, taking the horse of Mr. Watson to assist them in taking off their booty. They made directly for the North Car olina line. At Mr. John H. Moo dy's they stopped, and took two horses, and at Mr. W. J. Page's they took two more, Messrs. Elerbe & Watson's loss is not definitely known, as the goods were nearly all taken from the shelves and strewn on the floor-the robbers only taking off what suited them, this being for the most part ready-made cloth ing, ammunition, shoes,&c. They obtained $400 in money. The im prisoned party succeeded, at r a. M., (15th instant,) in drawing a staple and releasing themselves, when the alarm was given, and pursuit commenced. We much fear the robbers are too far ahead of- their pursers. Mr. Shaw,' a Deputy State Constable, is also in pursuit. This is an account of one of the most daring robberies our County has ever known at any time. The party are supposed to be a part of the Robeson County, North Car olina, band of outlaws. The hand thrust in with the lighted candle was white, but the entire band, so far as seen, were blackened. The number of thieves is various ly estimated from fi'-e to ten. Since writing the above, Mr. Shaw has returned. The horses seemed to have been turned loose, after their services were no lon ger needed, and were met return ingr-so that much was saved. The band was traced beyond Ash pole, N. C., near the den of the Robeson outlaws, thus leaving no dloubt that they were the robbers. Cannot Henry Berry Lo.wry and his band be captured byourneigh bor, Hiolden ? This is not the first outrage the people have sus tnined at their hands; and yet the Executive of North Carolina has not exercised its power to bring the wretches to justice. Yet Ala mance, for one affray, was placed under martial law. Another Outrage on the In dians. The Tndians of Alaska have been lately undergoing a course of instruction and civilization at the hands of some of our military rep resentatives which can hardly fail to impress them with a profound reverence for our principles of j us tice and mercy. In the Indian village of Wrange I, Alaska, a drunken Indian bit a woman's fin ger. Lieutenant Loucks, second officer ia command of our military post, took twenty armed soldiers, entered the Indian's hut at mid night, and ordered the soldiers to fire. There were two indians and their wives in the cabin. 'Per haps there was some others," says the Lieutenant; but that is not a matter of much consequence. A few Indians more or less don't coui t in a battle of that kind. The soldiers fired, and tbe origi nal Indian offender was killed. The Indian village became roused and excited, and a. relative of the slain Indian killed a white man. Thereupon the commander of the post, Lieutenanant Borrows, or dered the bombardment of the whole village, with its populationl of 508 souls, of whom .340. were women and children. The village is described in the report of the Indian Commissioners to the Presidnt as "made up of well constructed habitations, costing the inhabitants years of hard Ia bor to build up with their primi tive tools, ornamented with car ving in wood of most singular and elaboi*ate workmanship, painted with curious imagery, and provi ded cutside and in with many of the conveniencies of civilized life." Our men went to work at the word of command, and canonaded this village with shot and shell continuously from two o'clock un til da-k of one afternoon, and from daybreak next morning un til it was thought a sufficient les son had been given to a popula tion who, so far as we can per ceive, had no more to do with the killing of the white man or the original offense than anybody in New York has. This, at least, is the substance of the report made by the Indian Commissioners to the Government; and we should like to know whether this is the sort of policy by which we pro pose to bring the Indians within the pale of civilization and hu muniiy ? Biting a finger is pun ished .by death. The crime of an individual is avenged by the bom bardrent of a village. And yet these Indians do not believe that we are just and merciful, and mean them well! A HEAVENLY TUB OF A MAN. The Cincinnati "Gazette" says of Rev. Dr. Arnot, of Edinburgh, who attended the recent Presby terian Assembly at Philadelphia: It is hard to describe thisglorious, blessed, heavenly tub of a man Imagine a man about as thick as he is tall, so that whether he stands up, sits up, rolls up, leans up, side or feet, no matter which, he is always about the same height. Think of him as slow, steady, heavy, funny, witty,"sol emn, sniling, twinkling, serious and gay, brim-full of feeling and pathos, with a voice somewhat drawling and nasal, yet impress ie and powerful in its evangeli cal correctness and love, with eye brows shaggy as the cliffs of his native land, and hair dark gray, approaching white-a man who waddles when he walks, and min gles the bag-pipe strain with the loving notes of his cordial saluta tions to you ; a man simple and unsophisticated as a child, with intellect fine and heart tender as a babe's, and you have a faint pie ture of the last speaker of the evening. We cannot detail his speech. It was a model of apt ness, simplicity, beauty, and pro priety. lie is full of illustration. The calf story, the force pump, the cloud, the stagnant pool, tbe bubbling spring, the judgment none who heard theia from his lips avill ever forget them. Seve ral times he convulsed the au dience with laughter in his drawl ing and witty way, and again moved thbem to tears by his gen tle and gushing love. Dear old man ! all hearts love thee ! Late may you return to the skies ! It is not the wisest man nor the wisest newspaper that knows best how to deal with the tender emotions of the human heart. The c:sim.ple creature named Rig gis, who used to haul rock for old Matby," had far more sense about such things than the iSun, with all its boasted addictedness to the genial habit of shining for all. "When the lamented Judge Bagley tripped and fell dow.n the Court ilcuse stairs and broke his neck," says Mark Twain, in the June Galaxy, "it was a greatI question how to break the news to poor Mrs. Blagley. But finally, the body wti put into HTiggins' wagon,~and he was instructed to~ take it to Mrs. B., but to be very gaurded and discreet in his lan guage, and not break the news to her at once, but do it gradually and gently. When Higgins got there with his sad freight, he shouted till Mrs. Bagley came to the door. Then he said: "Does the widder Bagley live here ?" "The zcidow Bagley ? No, sir !" "I'll bet she does. But have it your o'wn way. Well,-.does Judge Bagley live here ?" "Yes, Judge Bagley lives here." "I'll bet he don't. But never mind-it ain't for me to contra dict. Is the Judge in ?" "No, not at present." "I jest expected as much. Be cause, you know-take hold o' suthin, mum, for I'm a-going to make a little communication, and I reckon maybe it'll jar you some. There's been an accident, ,mum. I've got the old Judge curled up out here in the wagon-and when yu see him you'll acknowledge yourself that an inquest is about the only thing that could be a comfort to him !" A clergyman in Ohio has sued his congregation for $95 back sal A. Western editor knows of a little Snnday school girl who, being asked by the catehiser, "What is the outward visible sign or form in 6aptisay?" inno .-nl re.lied "Pleae sir, the baby." The following extracts are from Gen.Wade Hampton's spirited and elegant address on the dedication of the Washington Light Infantry Monumen t, at Magnolia Cemetery, Charleston: Let us, then, my friends and comrades; cling with un'relaxing grasp and unshaken confidence to the faith that is in us. Let not the angry threats of oppression or the syren voice oftemptation drive or allure us to forsake it. Above all, be not misled by that unmean ing jargon which tells you that your c a u s e was submitted to the arbitrament of arms, and that the sword has decided that cause against you. The sword has never, nor will it ever, decide a principle or establish a truth. It can, as it has often done. overthrow a just cauise and make might take the place of right; but it can never reverse the immutable laws of God, and make what is evil appear right in His sight. A noble cause, up. held heroically by honor, courage and patriotism may die along with its supporters. A great truth nev er dies; but, eternal as the God head from which it springs, it lives forever, amid all the changes of dy nasties, the wreck of empires, and the death of nations. It is too, as false in fact as in logic to assert that the sword can or does decide justly between right and wrong, With the sword the Goths and Vandals drenched the fair fields of Italy with the best blood of her sons. It gave nearly half the world to Mahomet. It allowed the furks to trample out the civ ilization of Greece. Its keen edge has dismembered Poland. It has left Hungary bleeding at the feet of the oppressor. It has turned over Spain and Portugal to the tender mercies of the Saracen, and on this continent and in our day, directed by unscrupulous power against the throats of prostrate States, reeking with fratricidal bloed, it enforces the laws which it alone has made. Tell me not then that the sword can rightfully turn the scale of justice. It is the exponent of, tyrannye not the arbitrator of truth--the badge of the tyrant and the executioner not the symbol of justice. It i. not at all inconsistent with these views that we, as a conquered people, should observe scrupulously the terms dictated by the sword and accepted by us. We can de this, and should do it, in perfect good faith ; but we should claim and exercise the God-given right of freedom of opinion. We ac knowledge that the cause for which these men died is lost, but we should be false to them, false tc that cause were we to admit that they were, because of failure, ne cessarily wrong. We believs that they were right, and we there fore honor and respect their mnem ory. If they were right time will vindicate the action and record: their fame. If wrong. "Tt was a grievous fault, .And grievously have they answerd it." "It is right and proper that you should preserve the memory of our dead heroes. Would that we coult erect to them a monument whosi foundations should be as eternalas thegreat truths for which the' died ; lofty as their fame; pure our love ; lasting as our gratitude. rising proudly from the earth tha1 holds the;r clay, and pointing witl its spotless shaft to that heavei where we devoutly trust that they are now at rest, It is a touching and beautiful article of belief in th< reed of that strange system oj theology, which takes its nam< from its founder-one of Vhe mos1 wonderful men of the last century -that those who fall in battle fighting honestly and truly fo: their country, are immediately transported to heaven, to partak< of the highest joys of that blissfa abo'e; and though no such prom is is held out by our religi9n t< its votaries, it surely is not incon sistent with its holy spirit or di vine teaching, that this may b< the case. The trust of the patriot and the fhith of the Christian may then unite in hope.so full of joy and consolation, that our dead patrioti -:God's soldiers"-purified by the great oblation of their livei for their country's liberty,standina now in the presence of the Eter nal God, looking down with grate ful hearts on this solemn scene bringing their prayers for you who are now manifesting your re verence and love for them, to the very foot-stool of the Throne o: Grae, are invoking with devon1 supplications from the Father o Mercies, for you, all those riel blessings which He, and fle alone can bestow." A lady says the first time sh< was kissed sh-e felt like i~ tub o: roses swimming in honey, cologne nutmegs, and cramberies.
