and admire the genius of the sculptor, who has 
realized the most beautiful forms of the imagina¬ 
tion, and given to dead marble a resemblance of 
actual being. No one visits Frankfort without 
seeing the Kaisersaal and other rooms in the Rt- 
omerOerg, where the old Emperors of Germany 
were elected. In the Kaisersaal which has been 
lately refitted, are the pictures of all the Emperors 
from Chablemagne down to Fkancis II. of Aus¬ 
tria. They have been painted by eminent masters, 
and probably form the moat interesting gallery of 
portraits in the world. 
Saturday afternoon I took the carB for Heidel¬ 
berg. From Darmstadt we ran all the way close 
to the mountains, every now and then passing a 
village half hidden among fruit trees and a rained 
castle on a mountain top. Had not the next day 
been Sunday I should have remained at Zwingen- 
burg over night, in order ascend the Melibochus, 
which commands the finest view of any mountain 
in the Odeuwald.

I ksow that u God is Gove,” 
That from His great heart flows this stream divine, 
And bathes the throbbing hearts of earth’s worn ones 
Till pain be gone; 
That in His inmost soul He has great thoughts 
For all our weakness, and misguided steps; 
And with LoTe’s eye 
Looks on us as, with fainting hearts and feet 
We stumble in the narrow way that leads 
To Life Infinite; 
Yet oh! how prone is wav’riag oature mine. 
Though bathed in light of His forgiving love, 
With His dear voice still breathing on my soul 
The balm of those blessed words, 
“ Daughter, thy sins are all forgiven thee;” 
To wander back, wilh oftimes eager feet 
Into those seLt'-name gulfs fr-m whence He warned, 
And grovel in the very dust fit griefs 
Of rny own causing; 
And then with heait borne down with heavy weight 
Of thoughts rebellious, blame my God for this, 
And almost wish to diel 
And yet when thoughts of my great sin o’erpower. 
And my tried spirit cries to Him for help, 
Does He, with mercy all unspeakable. 
Extend His arms and take my weary head 
Upon His breast, and calm my spirit's grief 
With words of Love, 
How much this one dear thought, our hearts can cheer, 
While writing thus for Life and Death to meet,—

Trip from Heidelberg to Frankfort 
[Concluded from No. 401, page 297.] 
I was anxious to reach the Main before night, 
and aooordingly left this valley, taking ft shorter 
road across the hills. Upon inquiring the way of 
a peasant, I learned that the distance could he 
shortened still further by following a foot-path 
which I would fiud upon emerging from the forest 
before me. He directed me to tnrn to the left, but 
aa he was going in an opposite direction from my¬ 
self, I mistook the road and was led a mile or two 
out of the way. I finally came down from the hills 
into the valley of the Main, where I found the air 
damp and much warmer. I passed by a couple of 
large villages, surrounded with walls, and walked 
on in the darkness over the level road towards 
Asr.haffenhv.rg, a city on the frontiers of Bavaria. 
I was half dead with fatigae, and my feet had be¬ 
come so sore that I limped painfully along. When 
within a couple of miles of the city, the Btage 
coach overtook me, which I hailed, and took a seat 
on the top. In a few minutes we crossed a atone 
bridge over the Main and entered the town, I saw 
the towersof the castle dimly through the dark¬ 
ness, and a fortification on a steep hill. There 
were many people and soldiers in the streets, along 
which we drove rapidly towards the railway sta¬ 
tion. I was glad enoagh when seated at last in the 
cars ami speeding aloDg the level valley towards 
Frankfort. I fell Into conversation with a mer¬ 
chant who was going to attend the Fair, and when 
we arrived at the station we took a coach and 
drove to the same hoteL It was full from top to 
bottom, but the landlord proenred a room lor me 
in a private bouse close by. 
I had come to Fraukfoit for the purpose of get¬ 
ting my passport signed by the Austrian Minister, 
hut he refused to do it because there was no Amer¬ 
ican Minister—whose signature was also neces¬ 
sary—residing in the city, and said that I mnst go 
to Berlin. Not wishing to making that, jonmey on 
account of my passport, l went to Mr. Samuel 
Ricker, the American Consul, to seeil he conld 
help me out of the difficulty. He informed me 
that the Ambassadors at Frankfort were extremely 
strict, partly because it was a free city, and partly 
because many travelers came there for the same 
purpose as myself, and as the other authorities 
never looked behind the vise of the Ministers, they 
were very cautious iu attaching their signatures. 
He advised me to wait until I arrived in Munich, 
where 1 could probably obtain the necessary vise 
without much trouble, and seeing no better way I 
determined to follow bis advice. 
The great Annual Fair was going on briskly.— 
Booths wore erected in the market plaoes and 
several of the streels, in which was a rich display 
of quaint, and fanciful goods, and the narrow pas¬ 
sages between them were crowded with purchasers. 
Bands of strolling musicians paraded the city, and 
all sorts of wonder.* and curiosities, were adver¬ 
tised by flaming handbills, posted on the outside 
of various tents and shanties. The hotels were 
filled with strangers, mostly merchants, assembled 
from all parts of Germany. The great bulk of 
goods, however, was not exhibited in the open 
booths, but was stored in warehouses, to which it 
had been coming for sovoral woeks. The Fair has 
much decreased in interest and importance from 
what it was before the introduction of railroads, 
when merchants assembled from all parta of Eu¬ 
rope, and it was considered the principle one on 
the Continent Now the Fair held at Leipsic takes 
the precedence. As soon as possible I ascended 
the tower of the Cathedral, which is two Hundred 
and sixty feet high, in order to getabirds eye view 
of the city and surrounding country. The valley 
of the Main round about Frankfort, is level and 
monotonous. Northward are seen the blue ridges 
of the Taitnus Mountains; eastward the hills of 
Sfessart, and southward some of the peaks in the 
front rank of the Odenwald, bounding the Rhine 
plains. The attendant pointed out three country 
houses in the suburbs, belonging to Rothschild 
and a winter residence of his in the city. That 
part of the town within the walls, and nearest the 
river, is very old. It is compactly built; the 
Btieets are narrow and often without sidewalks, 
and the Btories of the buildings, project so much 
one over another, that often there is only a space 
of five or six feot between the upper ones. The

THE FIKST VIEW OF JERUSALEM, 
From the new publication, Tent life in the Holy 
Land, by W. C. Prime, we take the following de¬ 
scription of emotions natural to a first sight of 
the Holy City: 
After a tow steps forward, our worn out horses 
stumbling rather than galloping over the rocky 
patb.u hill crowned with a mosque and minaret, was 
before u3 in the distance, which my heart told by 
instinct was the Mount of the Ascension. I raised 
myself in my stirrups, and turning to Miriam, 
shouted, “The Mount of Olives!” and waved my 
baad toward it—and then, as I looked again, be¬ 
fore me, in all their glory and majesty, I beheld, 
magnificent in the light of the setting sun, the 
walls of Jerusalem. 
I had thought of that moment for years, in wa¬ 
king and in sleeping dreams. I had asked myself 
a hundred times, " What will yon do when your 
weary eyes rest on these holy walls?” Sometimes 
I thought I should cry out aloud, as did pilgiims 
of old times, and sometimes that I should kneel 
down on the road, as did the valiant men who 
marched with Godfrey and with Richard. But I 
did neither. 
My horse stopped in the road, as if he knew that 
all oar haste had been for this, and I murmured to 
myself, ‘‘Dens vnlt,” and my eyes filled with tears, 
and through them I gazed at the battlements, and 
the towers, and minarets of the city. One by one 
the party rode up, and each in succession paused. 
There were our Mohammedan servants, a Latin 
monk, who had joined ns a little hack, two Arme¬ 
nians and a Jew, in our cortege, besides ourselves,

NATURE'S TEACHINGS. 
The domestic pigeon ia too well known to need 
a description. They are found in every town and 
village, and familiar to every school boy. There 
are, however, several fancy varieties seldom Been, 
and among the prettiest of these is the Crown 
Pigeon, of which we give a fine engraving. Tnen 
there is the Fan Tailed sort, called by this name 
from its habit of spreading oat the feathers of its 
tail like a tnrkey cock. 
The Tumbler Pigeon soars to a great height 
and turn somersets in the air. The Pouter pos 
sesses the power to inflate the breast with air, and 
swell it out to a great size, which gives the bird a 
very proud and strutting appearance. The Car¬ 
rier Pigeon, and a variety somewhat similar called 
the Horseman, are much attached to their home, 
and will find it us Boon aa they have their freedom 
if carried hundreds of miles away. Interesting 
experiments are often tried by carrying them off 
andsenaing them home with letters attached. The 
Jacobin is a very small bird, and having on the 
back part of the head, inclining towards the neck, 
a range of inverted feathers, having a resemblance 
to a monk's cap. The Dragon ia a good deal like 
the Horseman, bat smaller and lighter. They sur¬ 
pass mo.st other varieties in swiftness, in short 
flights of ten or twenty milea. The Maumet or 
Mahomet Is a beautiful cream-colored bird, with 
bars of black acroes the wings. The Barb was 
originally brought from Bar bary, ia larger than 
the J ioobin, with ft short, thick beak, a small wat- 
Who can look abroad over the beautiful plainB 
that God has spread ont on the earth—notice the 
delicately tinted flowers that lie scattered in our 
pathway—listen to the sweet melodies of the birds, 
as they sing their morning and evening praises— 
or watch the ripples as they come and go on the 
laughing waters, and not receive impressions pe¬ 
culiar hi the scene on which we gaze, or the music 
that greets oar ears. Are beautiful green fields 
waring their wealth of tall grass before onr ar¬ 
dent gaze? Do the clouds chase each other 
through the bright blue dome above us, and cast 
their fitful shadows over ns? And does the river 
glide merrily along at onr feet, between banks 
covered with the noblest specimens of the forest, 
beneath whose branches the' sweetest wild flowers 
bloom? 
Straightway we forget grief, and all the corrod¬ 
ing races of active life, and onr thoughts, like the 
river, glide swiftly along, from one enchanting scene 
to another, from friend to friend, and from past 
pleasures to future expectations, until we find our¬ 
selves weaving bright garlands from the ideal with 
which to decorate the real. 
Do we hear the birds pour ont their flood of 
melody, joyous, soft or sad, and each In their own 
peculiar time? How sweetly they sing, and how 
they flit along through life, loving and being loved. 
Do we not turn Instinctively to ourselves, and won¬ 
der why man cannot thus love his fellow? So 
nearly is the heart attuned to Nature, and how great 
is the influence she exerts over us. Give me her 
for a teacher, let me sit upon her mossy banks as 
she has spread them out to-day, and can the evil 
passions reign? Do we not t arn from evil thoughts 
aa evil deeds, and dwell on the good ani pure, 
those that have loved us and perchance are exert¬ 
ing their influences OTer us still, either in person 
or in the sacred memories they have left ns, 
this side Heaven? We must each have a friend 
there. We must each have stood by the bed-aide 
of some dying loved one, and received the part¬ 
ing kiss, the last farewell, and promised to meet 
them in the spirit land. Now is the time to think 
of those dying words, and those hallowed promises. 
The mind is tired of the busy cares of life, and 
the real sinks far, far Horn onr mental vision as 
we search for the hidden springs of Virtue in our¬ 
selves. There is a jewel In every human heart— 
Search for it in thine. Crowd it not into darkness 
with love of gold or fame. Let benevolence, kind¬ 
ness and justice show themselves in thy character. 
Then shall the jewel grow bright and brighter, 
even nnto perfection, when it shall sparkle In the 
courts of the upper sanctuary for ever more.

and all alike gazed with 
overflowing eyes on that spot, towards which the 
longing hearts of so many millions of the human 
race tnrn daily with devout affection. We spoke 
no word aloud. One rushing wave of thought 
swept over all our souls. 
I stood in the road, my hand on my horse’s neck, 
and with my dim eyes sought to trace the outlines 
of the holy places which I had long before fixed 
in my mind, bat the fast flowing tears forbade my 
succeeding. The more I gazed the more I could 
not see; and at length, gathering close around my 
face tho folds of cont’ea, I sprang into the saddlo 
and led the advance toward the gates of the city. 
THE COMMON DOMESTIC PIGEON 
For Moore's Rnral New-Yorker.. 
BALLOON ASCENSION. 
the hygrometer indicated great decrease in the 
moisture of the atmosphere. He soon attained 
the immense height i f 23,100 feet above the earth, 
equal to four and three-sevenths miles. From this 
height he descended to the earth at Rouen in 34 
minutes, at an average velocity of 680 feet a minute. 
In the ascent by Prof. Stikneb the balloon was 
filled with our common iUuminating gas from the 
gas works of the city. The pure illuminating gaa 
is very little lighter than common air; but as man¬ 
ufactured from bituminous coal, the gas has an ex¬ 
cess of hyd rogen, or ia in part the light-carburetted 
hydrogen, with some hydrogen mixed with the 
heavy hydro-carbnret also. 
As the tcronauts so soon lost sight of objects 
from the hazy smoke of the atmosphere, the eleva¬ 
tion attained of Thursday, probably, was not two 
miles. As the barometer fell only nine inches, we 
know the height was a mile and abont fonr fifths 
For it has been ascertained from various experi¬ 
ments that an ascent of 105 feet causes a fall of 
the barometer equal to one-tenth of an inch, or 
1,050 feet for the fall of one inch. It is obvious 
then that at a certain elevation the weight of the 
balloon would equal the ascending power, and the 
ascent must cease. 
Very few results of much importance have been 
attained by balloonry or aeronautics. One, how¬ 
ever, of chemical interest is that the atmosphere 
as high as 21,849 feet ia composed of the same pro¬ 
portion of the elements as at the surface of the 
earth. It had been supposed that the lighter gases 
would abound in the upper regions; bat they 
do not. As the bine color of the sky arises from 
the reflection of the blue rays of light in the rare 
and high portion of the atmosphere, so the dark 
and even black color of the canopy, depends on 
the fact that at a higher point the rarity of the air 
is so great that not even the bine rays, or even any 
rays, are reflected to the eye. No light appears 
but in the direction of the sun, or by reflection 
from clouds. 
Clouds have been seen by aeronauts at so great a 
height as to be invisible to one on the earth. 
Magnetism operates aa on the surface of the 
globe. 
At two miles or more respiration becomes diffi¬ 
cult, and often pains occur in the ears or head 
from the pressure of internal air expanding, from 
leaving so much pressure of atmosphere behind. 
The cold increases with the ascent, and clouds 
of hail and snow have often been traversed which 
deposited their hail or snow on the car. 
Dense clouds below the aeronaut present the ap¬ 
pearance of a sea of the purest snow or whitest 
cotton. 
The velocity of balloons has sometimes been as¬ 
tonishing, the violent current of wind bearing 
along the seronaut at the rate of seventy or eighty 
miles an hoar. 
Finally: will the balloon ever he made the in¬ 
strument for transporting persons or property?— 
All attempts, yet made, have failed; audit’ ever 
successful, the expense and exposure to the loss 
of life will prevent, an excessive popularity. 
Rochester, Sept. Gth, 1857. 0. D. 
The first morning in Jerusalem was a time for¬ 
ever to be remembered. When the sun catne np 
above the Mount of Olives, I was standing on the 
eastern side of the city, without the walls, on the 
brow of the valley Jehoaaphat, looking down into 
its gloomy depths and up to tbe hill that was hal¬ 
lowed by tbe last footsteps of Christ. 
1 could not sleep. It was vain to think of it or 
attempt it. Broken Bnatebos of slumber, dreamy 
and restless at the best, but mostly broad awake 
thoughts, Lucies, feelings and memories occupied 
tbe entire night. Weary and exhausted as I was 
by the previous day’s travel, I could not compose 
my mind sufficiently to take the rest I actually 
required. 
It was but little after the break of day that I 
strolled down to tbe gate of St Stephen (so called 
now, though formerly known as the gate of the 
Lady Miry, because of its leading to the Virgin’s 
tomb,) and finding it open already, passed ont 
among the Moslem graves that cover the hill of 
Moriah, outside the walls, and sitting down on one 
of thorn, waited in silence the coming of the son. 
And it came. 
I had scon the dawn come over the forest of the 
Delaware country, in the sublime winter mornings. 
•« Wtien Ust Might's snow hangs lightly on the trees, 
And all the ceAvrs and pines arc white 
With the new glory." 
I had seeu the morning come np over the prai¬ 
ries of Minnesota, calm and majestic, along the 
far horizon. I bad seen it in golden glory on the 
sea, in soft splendor in Italy, in rich effalgence 
over the Libyan desert. But I never saw such a 
morning aa that before, uor shall I ever see another 
such In this cold world. 
At first there was a flush, a faint, but beautiful 
light like a halo above the holy mountain. Right 
there-away lay Bethany, and I could think It the 
radiance of the bursting of Martha's brother. But 
the flush became a gleam, a glow, an opening 
heaven of deep, Btrong light that did not dazzle or 
bewilder. I looked into it and was lost in it, as 
one is lost that gazcB into the deep, loving eye of 
the woman he worships. It seemed aa if 1 had bnt 
to wish arid I should be away in the atmosphere 
that was so glorious. Strong chords of desire 
seemed drawing me hither. 1 even rose to my 
feet and leaned forward over the carved turban on 
a Mussulman's tomb. I breathed strong, full In¬ 
spirations as if I could breathe In that glory. 
All ibis while, deep in the gloom of the valley 
between me and the Mount of Ascension lay the- 
Hebrew dead of all the centuries, quiet, calm, 
solemn in their slumbers. 
On Tuesday and Thursday, Sept. 1st and 3d, our 
citizens were gratified by beholding this scene.— 
Thousands, who had never seen the like, now real¬ 
ize the vision which appeared before them and 
passed off without any consequences but those of 
joy. The days were fine, the wind slight, the few 
clouds were high, and the view splendid. On 
Tuesday, Prof. Steinkb ascended alone, and on 
Thursday he was accompanied by EL L. Win ants, 
Esq, and in both cases the mronauts returned in a 
few honr3 in safety with the mrostatic vessel. Tae 
Balloon rose slowly on Thursday, grand and mag¬ 
nificent, amidst the shouts of thousands on Fall’s 
Field, and before the eyes of more thousands in 
the streets, and on bridges, and on the crowded 
roofs of a multitude of buildings. Tbe city and 
the country were delighted. 
Balloon is from the French, ballon, a foot-ball, 
or the Danish, ballon, a ball and has a variety of 
meanings. Though the object, implied in com¬ 
mon language, is well known, it is often called an 
air-balloon, for definiteness of thought. It is usu¬ 
ally constructed of oiled or glazed silk, of a glob¬ 
ular, or oval, or pear-formed shape, protected by 
fine and sUong net-work. This balloon is said to 
be made of linen, and ia named the “ Pride of the 
West.” The passenger car is attached to the bot¬ 
tom, and the asronuut lets the air escape by means 
of a valve, placed under his ooutrol, as the expan¬ 
sion becomes too great on rising into the atmos¬ 
phere, or as it is necessary for his discent to the 
earth. 
Ballooning began to bo practiced in France in 
1782. The first balloon of much magnitude was 
ruued by rarified air, though it is said that onr 
countryman, Bittsnhousb, raised a small balloon 
by means of hydrogen gas a little earlier. In 1784 
an enormous balloon was constructed at Ljoub, in 
France, which was "130 feet high and 105 feel in 
diameter, which contained 540,000 cubic feet of 
rarified air,” and had an ascending power of above 
four thousand pounds. It carried tip seven per¬ 
sons to the height of 3,200 feet, when it suddenly 
came down on account of a rent in the materials. 
In 1783, the use of hydrogen gas began, by which 
tho levity was five or six times that of common air. 
On Dec. 17tb, 1783, two mrouaats made a voyage 
from Paris, through the air, of twenty seven mil-s, 
with the aid of this light gas. As one of them 
left tho car aa they landed, the baltoou rose at once 
into the air and carried the other up 9 000 feet, or 
nearly oue mile aud two-thirds. At this height, 
he could not see the earth, all its objects had dis¬ 
appeared, while the thermometer had fallen from 
47° to 21 ,: , and he was benumbed with the cold.— 
Opening the valve, he deseuded iu safety to the 
earth, having passed through several different cur¬ 
rents of air. The sky was dark and gloomy at the 
elevation of 10.000 feet. 
In 1804 Gay Sussac, the distinguished chemist 
made ascenslous at Paris, furnished with apparatus 
for ascertaining his elevation, and other physical 
facts. On Sept 0th ha ascended above Paris 22,- 
905 feet, and found clouds still above him, though 
The Subjection of tub Body.— The Christian

true son of God, by faith alone. Yet while he re¬ 
mains upon earth, in this mortal state, he mast 
keep his bodyia subjection, and perform those 
duties which result from an intercourse with his 
fellow-creatnres. Here, then, it is, in the Christian 
scheme, that works are to be placed; here it is 
that sloth and indolence are forbidden; and here 
the convert ia bound to take care that, by fasting, 
watching, and labor, and other suitable means, his 
body be so exercised and subdued to the spirit, 
that it may obey and conform to the inward and 
new man, and not rebel and obstruct the opera¬ 
tions of faith, as it is naturally to do, if not re¬ 
strained. For the inward man, being created after 
the image of God, by faith rejoices thro’ Christ, in 
whom he possesses so great a treasure; and hence 
his only employment and delight are to serve God 
freely in love.— Luther.

I went one day to see the Ariadne of D annkckkr, 
one of the best pieces of sculpture that has been 
made in modern times. It cost Dannecrkb eight 
years of labor, and he received for it when finish¬ 
ed in 1814, about eight thousand dollars, though 
now it is valued at forty thousand. I could never 
exactly oomprohend the term ‘‘living marble” un¬ 
til I beheld this statue. There is that about a 
work like this, which impresses at onco even tbe 
most common beholder. You need not be told 
when you enter tho room, that you are in the pres¬ 
ence of a great master-piece. You kuow that, lor 
Nature recognises herself, and the knowledge 
comes intuitively. The first feeling is satisfaction. 
Tho eye glances over the reclining marble, and a 
perfect form of beauty enters the soul; not a beau¬ 
ty that we ever see realized on earth, but rather 
saoh ns tho imagination gives to the immortals.— 
It seems murblo no more. Life flashes along the 
graceful aud faultless outlines, and you wonder at 
Temptations. —Wo must never be astonished at 
temptations, be they ever so outrageous. On this 
earth all is temptation. Crosses tempt ns by irri¬ 
tating onr pride, and prosperity by flattering it— 
Our life is a continual combat, but one in which 
Jesus Christ fights for us. We must pass on un¬ 
moved while temptations rage around us, as the 
traveler, overtaken by a storm, simply wraps his 
cloak more oloseiy about him, and rashes on more 
vigorously toward his destined home. 
Quaint old Fuller says:—“Let him who expects 
one class of Boeiety to prosper in the highest 
degree, while the other is in distress, try whether 
one side of his face can smile while the other is 
pinched.
