Mu. EDITOR:
In reply to "Mr. AlUunkey" we find
from reading ancient history Herodotus
observes that as the Egyptian could not
live without kings they chose twelve,
among whom they divided thc different
districts ot Egypt. These princes con
nected themselves together by interinar,
riages agreeing to promote tito common
interest and never lo engage in any acts
of separate policy. Thc motive tor this
union was to guard against the declara
lion ol an oracle that whosoever among
them should offer in thc temple ot Vol,
can a libation from a brazen vessel
should be thc sole sovereign oi Egypt
and it is to be r<unemftercd that they as
sembled indifferently ia every temple.
These twelve kings were eminent for the
justice Of their administration. Upon a
certain occasion they were offering sac
rifices in thc temple of Vulcan and on
the last day of the lestival, were about
to make thc accustomed libation; for
this purpose the chic! priest handed
to them the golden cups used on these
solemnities, bul he mistook ibo. number
and instead of twelve gave only cloven,
l'saminclichus who was thc last ol them
not having a cup look off his helmet
which happened to be of brass and from
this poured bis libation. (But I did not
pour any wine in any of ihe scenes I
saw, either at the door when it sprang
open.) The other princes usually wore
helmets and had them on thc present oc
casion, so that the circumstance of this
one king having and using his was ac
cidental and innocent. Observing the
action, and remembering the pred; 'lion
of the oracle the other kings minutely
investigated the matter thinking that he
had acted designedly. Finding, how
ever, that it was purely accidental they
did not deem him worthy of death; but
for their own security, deprived him of
the regal power, and confined him to
the marshy parts of his country, forbid
ding ilim to leave this situation or hold
communication with the. rest of Egypt,
l'sammelichus writhing under the in
dignity, resolved to bc revenged and
with this view sent to consent Ihe oracle
at Latona, at Butos. He was answered,
that Ihe sea would produce brazen men
to avenge his cause. Sometime after, a
body of lomans and Carians who had
been engaged in a voyage of plunder
were compelled by stormy weather lo
land in Egypt clad in their brazen ar
mours. The ambitious monarchs im
mediately conceived the.se to bc thc
brazen men promised him hy Ihe oracle.
He accordingly entered into an alliance
with them and having, by splendid
promises engaged them to unite with
his Egyptian adherents, he vanquished
the eleven kings, and made h i msc!!
master of the whole country. This hap
pened before Ohr isl seven hundred and
seven yeats. PSALM.

IN A FLORIDA SWAMP.
Ovoi'slindowed by ii for?at of Ulossotiis.
S?micos In thc tow IlrniivbuH.
Soon tho forest Closed in on holli sides
of tho narrowing crook. Tho hanks on
either side were hut three or four inches
above water, and wo eould look far into
the dark woods, overa dead level covered
with luxuriant vegetation-some fresh,
some old. Ferns of many varieties some
times blocked the view with their fronds.
Now and Iben there were patches of soil
in the deep shadow, whore nothing grew
except the white Atamasco lily. Scores
of thia starry dower lit up these somber
places. The creek grew moro narrow
and winding. The trees mot overhead,
and wo bent our heads low lo pass under
tho branches, stretching up our hands oc
casionally to break oft' twigs loadetl with
blossoms. So on for 1 know not how
long ti distance, lill tho boat eould go no
farther, ?md we went ashore and loaded
ourselves with Howers. A catalogue ol'
them would bo too long.
Do yon ever experience tho delight
which is caused by nu t ting a familiar
home llowor among strange blossoms? Up
hero tho air was lilied with a fragrance
which was easily traced to the small
while bloom of our partridge berry,
much moro fragrant in Florida than in
Now England. Perhaps tho most strik
ing feature of this spot is that, alter you
have emerged from tho bottom land and
ascended on tho dry sod beside the
swamp, you lind yourself hi a small
forest of tho sparkle berry, a tree which
for beauty has hardly a rival. Tho
blossoms, which aro small and white,
hang by the million on slender stems.
Looking up at them you are bewildered
With their beauty and lavish abundance.
Day is not long enough to satisfy ono
who once gets into tito heart of a Florida
swamp in April. There are countless
plants in blossom, and many more whose
Strange and unknow n foliage leads you
to wonder what their blossom will be.
Among these the sunshine drops through
openings in tho trios with dazzling
elfecta. Great bu lt or fi ?cs, Hitting through
the shadows, seem of strange and somber
color, liku huge1 night moths, and it is
only when they cross ono of tho sneaks
of sunlight that you recognize your old
friends, Turnus or t'rosphontos or Pilli
modes or Ajax. A jax moro frequently
puzzles you. His silvery gray wings
assume all manner of tints in various
lights.
Snakes, do you ask? Yes, many and
mighty. So long as you aro iii the boat
you need have no care for them, but
when wandering about swamps you may
ns well keep a sharp lookout. You will
not find thom, however, in cool weather
or cloudy days. We saw a few. The
colored folk seem lo inherit a condensed
portion of tho human enmity to the ser
pent. Whenever ono sees a snake he is
possessed with n desi ra to exterminate
ililli. As we rowed slowly down the
river we saw hero timi there a moccasin
hanging on a branch hi tho sunshine, and
my boatman always wanted to stop and
kill him, and 1 always consented.

A Story of Vicksburg.
Here isa story with the scene laid ill
Vicksburg. It was while I was in Vicks
burg starving on poa bread and ihxlging
tho Yankee shells. I was detailed to go
to tho commissary to do some work. The
boys made it a part of their work to slip
something moro than was given to them
when thoy went to the commissary, and
it was always something to oat, which
they would divido with us. I thought
that ns it had come my time to go 1
would he as good as they had
been, if the opportunity afforded,
That Wo were watched you need
not doubt, and that there was
reason for stealing 1 need not deny. Put
it nuikes mo feel like a sheep thief yet,
when I think of it.
When I was in the commissary, I could
see nothing open bul ti barrel of crackers.
I could got to nothing better and con
eluded to take a good supply of them.
In walking about tho commissary I made
it convenient to go hy the barrel of hard
tacks and slip a handful in my bosom,
always watching tho commissary ser
geant. I worked hard when ho was
! looking at mc, I never oneo thought
about how many of tho crackers 1 was
getting into my bosom. 1 never noticed
I that my shirt body was growing to an
enormous size. I was thinking of tho sup
per tlilit the boys would have that night.
Suddenly tho bottom part of my shirt
slipped out from lintier the waistband of
my pants. The sergeant was looking at
mo, The situation I was in can only be
imagined, 1 was excited, and it seemed
to ino that there was a bushel of tho
darned things spilled around mo. Tho
sergeant simply said: "You had a sup
ply." and passed on.-J. ll. McDaniel in

Wo hero poss from tho ministry o? John to
thai of Jesus. Tho transition hour ls tho bap
tism of tho Lord hy John; that was the most
important act in tho harbinger's mission.
Tho hing was thus inaugurated, and tho
work of tho forerunner wns nearing Ita ond,
Tho seen? is profoundly instructive. Thosin
loss Ono submits to tho symbolical act ns if
ho were a .simmer.
THU I.KSHON.
V. 13. Then Coijioth.-Wo cannot bo quito
certain how long John tho Baptist had boon^j
preaching up to this period. Perhaps, taking
into account tho comparativo ago of tho Bnp
li'.t.. wo limy Konposn that tho baptism of
Christ took placo six months after John bo
gnu bio ministry. Tradition, which lina se
lected tho spot, has also named tho winter as
tho timo of tho baptism. Josus carno from
Nazareth of Galilee1. Mark 1,0 namoi? tho
town. Wo have already scon that this town
wns nhoilt soventy miles north of Jerusalem,
and perhaps about tho samo distance from
tho placo of baptism. That spot would seem
to'bo tho sninio as whero, inversas llvo ond
six, multitudes carno to John for baptism.
Probably this was tho place already signalized
in tho history of redemption. lloro tho
Israelites Uudor Joshua crossed tho rlvor;
hero tho Waiora showed tho power of God
when they wero miraculously oponed by
i Elijah and Elisha, No weider that multitudes
still como, ns ninny truvclors inform us, und
phmgo into tho waters nt this sacred spot.
V. M. John's Hesitancy,-John kuowsomo
thing of Christ's miraculous birth, blameless
lifo and divino character. No wonder that
ho shrank from performing this service.
Moro lilting it Boomed that Jesus should bap
tiz? him. Ho felt unworthy to unlooso hin
Lords sandals, far biol to baptizo him. This
hesitancy is in perfect harmony with other
examples of John's marked humility. Tho
imperfect tenso hero employed shows that it
was not a momontary act whon ho forbade
him. Tho word means that ho tried to hin
der him. As Alford suggests, tho word im
plies activo and oar host provouting with ges
tures of hand and tones of tho voice. Whon
Jesus spoke thc words which removed John's
doubt ho immediately obeyed. Wo havo
thrco accounts of tho baptism, but Matthew
alone lolls us of .John's hesitancy to perform
tho significant act. John already regarded
him as the Messiah, but ho wanted and ho
now received perfect nssuranco regarding Iiis
divino anointing. Why should Christ, tho
sinless ono, submit to tho baptism of repent
ance} ? Tho nnswor is not far to Book. Ho
was tundo sin for US. Boing in tho likonossof
sinful Host), it was fitting that he should sub
mit to tho rite intended for sinners. ' In this
spirit Ito performed ninny other acts, such ns
keeping tho Passover, on obsorvanco belong
ing especially to sinners. His baptism thus
identified thu Lord with those whom ho carno
to redeem,
V. 15. Our Lord's significant anstvor ro
luoved John's hesitancy. Tho reply also
shows Christ's design in submitting to tho
ordinance. Had Christ loft this act unper
formed, smoothing would havo boen wanting
irj t hat perfect righteousness which ho carno
to manifest. Ho como in our mauro not only
to rho tho denth of atonement, but to live a
lifo of p?rfeci obed lonee. Baptism is on act
of obedioneo. islanding in our piuco it wns
Utting that Jesus should submit to this ordi
nance What Christ sanctioned now by his
own examplo ho afterward commanded,
making it binding upon all his truo disciples.
Tho baptism also was an inauguration of
Christ's public and olllcial lifo. Tho "now"
suggests that tho rotation of subjection was
real, but was only temporary and would soon
give jiliico lo a truer relationship. Christ
recognizes some ground for John's doubt, but
John was to aequicsco for good, though tem
porary reusoiM. Thu net is that of Jesusas
well CA that ot' John.
V. 10. Wont Up Straightway Out of tho
Watcr.--.\itor tho act was performed the
heavens wero opened, tho clouds woro ported,
mid tho spirit os a dove descended.
As o Dove.-This moy be understood of tho
shape which was assumed, or of tho manner
of descont, so for os theso words oro con
cerned; but adding what Luke has said (Luko
iii, 22), it is moro probable that tho reference
ls rather to tho form which tho spirit chose to
assume. To limit this expression to tho man
ner of tho descent is to do violonco to tho nat
ural meaning of tho oxprcssion. Nothing
could bo moro appropriate to tho character,
lifo and work of Josus than this dovo Uko
form. John tells us (John i, 32) that "it
abode on him." lt was o permanent posses
sion; tims ho rcce.ved tho spirit without
mensure ; thus ho was formally anointed for
his groat work; thus lie officially entered
upon it. Thou John and others knew, by
testimony from heaven, that ho was tho Mes
slab.
V. IT. A Voice from Heaven.-The voico
pf tho eternal God was now heard. This
voieo would confirm John most fully and
hotter preparo him for his further relations
to Josus. lt is possiblo that tho volco was
heard only by him and by Christ himself.
'JTUo term Hon was npplied to tho Messiah in
Psalms ii, 7, li). On two othor occasions tho
voico of the Kat lier was heard-at tho trans
figuration mid shortly beforo tho cruclllxion.
A comparison of the records of theso three
evenly by all tho ovnugolists will show that
on every occasion Christ was engaged in
prayer. Tho throe occasions abound in sug
gestive lessons.
My Bon, My Beloved.-This is o sort of
I proper name; it is a distinclivo title. Tho
j remaining words aro from tho Messianic pro
! pheoy os found in Isaiah xiii, 1. This wns n
wonderful moment for tho Son of man. Now
as never beforo up to this hour his great nils
j sion was opening to his gozo. AU tho per
! sons of tho blessed Trinity woro audibly or
j visibly present: tho Pother by on audible
I voice, tho Koa in human form, and tho Spirit,
I os a dove. Tho Ordinance thus honored by
tlio triune God should bo honored by all truo
believers.
I'OINTS TO UK UKMKM1U?UK1).
I, It becomes us to follow Christ's example
and to oboy all Christ's contmnnds. Wo may
not understand tho full significance of sonio
of them any moro thou did John, but it ls
always right to fulfill oil righteousness.
' 2. Christ's obedioneo in lifo as well ns his
atoning sacrifico was necessary to tho com
pletion of his work, and brought a great ro-'
ward. Every net of obedioneo on our pnrt
also may bo followed by a still, small voico
Baying lo each truo Christian, Thou art my
son; thou art my daughter, in whom lam
i well pleased.
