With patterings sweet, of her silver feet The spring comes, trailing wroathB of flowers That shino Uko Vainbows through the show ore. The birds -they fly, and the leaves tbpv dio, ! And drift in dull heaps down the valleys; But after the weary; dreary days, The winds they beat the anow and tho sloot To leaves ot roses, a id leaves of lilies, And the fire of tho .wild pinks break* to a blaze, j Wo sigh, alasl for the flower bf.the grass, And the daisy,, 'roft.of, the dow so tender; But. after tho dreary, woarV week's, The dove is seen, and the bough grows grech,' And tho hilts aro sunned with sudden splon 1 dor, : And the water findoth a voice, and speaks. ; And we, too, pas?; like the flower of tho grass, IFrom spring to winter, and frost BO hoary. And thence into silence low and dim; But tle shall awake, for His great love's sake Who hath gone before us to live in glorj. For he hath promised us life with Him. .-,--.? ? m "Who Ar? the Ten Lost Tribe* of lu nd 1 Chin? ats the Lnml ortho Lost Tribes. To TUF, EDITOB OP TUB EEK ALP : About two months since I saw the question .eked in the Herald, "Who are the long lost ten tribes of Israel?" The ques? tioner evidently expected an answer from the preachers, the modern Phari? sees; bat he waited in vain, and he pro? ceeded to answer his own question him? self in last Sunday's Herald, He thinks . that the Hans and o th or barbarous tribes from Persia and Mesopotamia and from about the Black Sea, who invaded Europe ten or twelve centuries ago, were the ten tribes; but this is an error, as thoy never bore any distinct trace of being distinct from other barbarous peo? ple. Bat the ton tribes do bear distin? guishing qualities from all other people on the globe, living by themselves, and having a civilization of their own, which ia the same as they had when they lived at Samaria, on the Eastern coast of the Mediterranean, with the exception ol the immense advancement they have made in agriculture, manufacture and industry, which excels that of all othei nations, and made them more wealthy, perhaps, than all other nations on the globe. They established thomaclver where they now dwell nt about the time of the building of Borne, as that ia about the period of time that Shalma nezzar, the King of Assyria, carrier them away beyond the river Euphrates, and they took this counsel among them selves, as we ar? informed by the pro pbet Ezra, or Esdras, that they woulc leave the multitude of the heathen anc go into a country where mankind had never settled, so that there they migo keep their own laws and live exclusively by themselves. They procured suitable boats, entered into the Euphrates by tin narrow months, and into the Poraiai Gulf, and, coasting the Indian Ocean proceeded on and passed farther India for the Almighty held still the flood un til they were clear passed over, and they landed at Quantong, which was then * howling wilderness, filled with beast and birds, and lakes and rivers, lille? with fish. This long voyage took then one year and a half to accomplish. All Eastern Asia was at that time un inhabited, and was the same as Nortl America was when first discovered, rank wilderness. Here thoy settled many thousands of miles away from al other nations. They were not con tami nated with the heathen, and they hav prospered more than any other nation and 'constitute nearly half the people o the globe, as the Scriptures say: "Win can count the dust of Jacob, or numbe the fourth part of Israel"-for he mus count the hundreds of millions of Chi nese first. They have the idolatrou worship now that they had in Samaria jtj?t now, as at Samaria, they have wis EB&ri who have never bowed the knee t ''Baal. They have alway? had idols sine they settled in China. They have s( the best example of all nations to shu: war, and live in peace with all nationi which is the secret of prosperity an statesmanship. Europe is indebted t them for tho example, and has, for th last hundred years, been following i the path-way of peaceful industry au manufacture. Europe and the worl are indebted to China for the.knowledg of all the most important discoverit nod manufactures in the world. Coi toi silks, satins and most other manufacture came from China, passed through Indi and Persia Wost to the Mediterranean Furthermore, all nations are indebted t China for their civilization. The Grce! land Homans have faded from tho eart some thousands of years, while from Ix superior statesmanship China has su vived them all, having a living civiliz tion which Greece and Borne never ha< China, which is incontestably tho lan of the long lost ten tribes, stands at tl head of all civilized nations, except i one thing, and that is Ohtistianit; Their superior civilization over Euro}' is shown by their free religion, bavin no State religion, as the barbarous m tions of Europe always have had, nud is more than likely that the morals of tl Chinese are better than those of Europ which is Christianity in reality, nc mach better than religion, which h never yet been defined, and probab never will be. When the King of the Jews, Jesi Christ, was born at Jerusalem, wiso mc came from the East, saying, "Where he that is born King of the Jews, for v have seen his star in the East, and a come to worship him?" Thus wise ai good men have always been in Chin They are the majority of Israel, and well-informed Chinaman will tell y< that he marched with Moses from Egyr. The "foolish church" has always taug that the wise men of the East were Babylon, whom they call Magi, wi were nothing bat fortune-tellers, ai were heathen templo priests or gypsies Thus God appeared as a star in Chi to wise men, and being Israelites and n heathens, they knew God and respond " V ?-1'1. .
