Who broke up the log ca- bins?) Who has principally effected the revo- lution in the polities of New York and of the whole Union? These certainly are very important and interesting questions—and as the revolution is now complete, overwhelming, astounding, we have no doubtthere will be many aspirants and many claimants for the honor of skinning “that same old coon.” Well, be itso. We, of the New Yors Heratp, must put in our claim, and we certainly have been at work, with our sleeves up, from the commence: ment of the hunt, in April 1841, up to this date.— About that time Gen. Harrison died and John Tyler became President of the United States. How was he received by the whole Press, both whig and lo- cofoco ? With contempt almost by the democratic press,from the Washington Globe down to nothing— and with fear and trembling by the whig press,from the Courier & Enquirer up to something. Not a single newspaper was there in the whole country that would deign to give an encouraging word to John Tyler, except the New York Herald. Here we looked into his past public life—examined his folitical career in Virginia —sifted his jrinciples of action, and from the jump, the New York Herald pronounced him the honest, fearless, warm-hearted, patriotic Chief Magistrate that he has proved himself to be—that from his history and position, he would take a moderate and middle course of policy—equally removed from the destruc- tive policy of the ultra locofocos or that of the vltra whigs. From that moment our views and purposes were perfectly clear and perfectly fearless. Without any personal acquaintance or knowledge of John Tyler, we predicted and prefigured his course, from a mere abstract conclusion from the policy of his public ca- reer, and the morals of his private lite. Have we been mistaken? By no means. For nearly a year, running through the Extra Ses. sion, the Herald was the only public journal of any general character or circulation, that gave a fearless support to John Tyler—or advocated his policy, without the fear of Presidential cliques. Other jour- nals, such as the Washington Madisonian, the New York Express, the Commercial Advertiser, and others, gave a feeble encouragement—but all have fallen away—abandoned the administration, except the first named, which has little influence as yet, and little circulation, although by energy and indus- try it may increase both. For assuming this independent and common- sense position, the Herald has been denounced by both the ultra newspaper priots, in the most savage, blackguard, and atrocious manner. The whole spi- rit and force ofthe persecutions we have sustained in thise ity have been stimulated because we crossed the path of the ultras, and supported the administra- tion. Every vile epithet has been applied to us— and every vile crime imputed to us, principally on that account. Even the very officers of John Tyler’s administration in New York, have secretly joined in the confederacy against us, and tried to establish feeble rival prints to put us down. In spite of all this opposition, thanklessness, jea- lousy, and secret calumny, we have maintained our course—supported Joha Tyler, from the most .gen- erous impulses of nature, without any hope or ex- pectation of any return, bat that which a good citi- zen expects froma good government. In this work, the efforts and influence of the Herald have been wider and more comprehensive, than any ten other papers in the United States. From the commence- ment of the Extra Session in 1841, up to the recent revolution, we have employed at our own expense exclusively, six, and sometimes ten,of ihe best reporters in the country, and stationed them at all points— Washington, New York, and other places—as well as sending expeditions to every place where inpor- tant proceedings took place. We have run nearly a dozen of expresses on such business—and we have cirewated, in the last eighteen months, nearly sixteen millions of the sheets of the Herald, throughout the whole country. The amountof labor and effort in procuring speeches, letters, debates, proceedings, money articles, and defending and explaining the course of John Tyler, have been ten times greater than that done by any other newspaper establish- ment in the country. In all these efforts,both sides—the friends and op- ponents of John Tyler—have been fairly presented, and the common sense of the people stimulated to self-examination and self correction. We have condueted the Herald on principles of the highest intellectual and moral independence—not bound to any party, to any cligue, or to any man, but fairly laying the whole ground before the American com munity, From the first public meeting in National Hall, where the ultra whigs broke ground in the | Resuur in New Yorx.—Through the enterprising campaign, up to the last great meeting in Faneuil | express line of Pomeroy & Co.,' we havé received ‘Hall, where Daniel Webster spoke so keen and se | returns from fifty counties in this State, We give well, we have been at the expense of reporting and | below the result therein. Those ceunties to hear publishing both sides, with the most unexampled | from will not vary the majority more than (wo energy, fairness and rapidity. thousand. Such being a brief view ot the history of the last eighteen months, we have reason to claim for the Herald, as being one, if not the principal element in producing the great revolution which has taken place. 4 ‘ ‘ State Election, Full Vote, 1540.

I., to Richmond, Virgi- nia, to Boston, Mass., to every important point in the country, where great speeches were to be made, and on running expresses at vast expense,from every place of importance to New York, which is the cen- tral point of thought and action for the whole Unien. The effect of that system of enlightening the pub- lic mind was as complete then as it has been now. A more overwhelming counter revolution has been produced in favor of John Tyler and his admin tration, than ever was expected by his friends.— The New York Herald, from its immense circula- tion—its comprehensive character—its fearless and honest reports, speeches, proceedings, editorials, statistics, and money articies, has wielded a power and influence that no other ten or twenty journals could Now, for this honest and fearless performance of our duty, we want nothing of Mr. Tyler but a good government—the immense patronage of the gener- ous public has placed us beyond all want and all de- Whig Maj.

Inthe approaching session of Congress every element will be in astate of utter confusion The ultra locofocos, led on by the Globe, appear to be frightened, and are actually forming a clique to oppose Mr. Tyler, but in his present position in the country, he has only to put forth his hand to over whelm them at once. What course the President will pursue—what course the ultra whigs will—what course the ultra locofocos—what course Mr. Clay, or Mr. Van Bu- ren, or Mr. Benton—or Mr. Webster—or Mr. Cal- houn, seems to be shrouded in mystery, made more mysterious by the revolution just past. What course the New York Herald will pursue is not so myste- rious. We shall build up and enlarge our‘agstem— repair our machinery—reorganise our troop of re- porters and writers for afresh campaign, and go for any man, or any set of men thatcan furnish the best evidence ot patriotism, honesty, and sound policy— whether that man is Henry Ciay, or Martin Van Buren, or John Tyler, or John C. Calhoun, or Lewis Cass. We will go with no party that will give usa bad, or with any party that will give us a good government. We wield an intellectual power great- er than any ten other presses in the country—but we shall wield it for the prosperity and advancement of the whole community without any regard to party or faction. 29 32. Wm, A. Mosely. Tuivo1s Bonps Looking vp.—An old and wealthy citizen having made a will lorg enough to penetrate posterity clean through—has among other liberal donations, bequeathed to the French Benevolent Society, the amount of twenty-five thousand dollars. Having an abundant supply of available funds on hand, he thought the wisest course to dispose of a portion of it, would be to anticipate the payment of sundry bequests ; one, among which, was the above society. The secretary of the society having been notified of his intention called to get the funds—ela- ted with this unexpected prospect, he drew up a re- ceipt for the amount, and handed it to the gentle- man who gave him, asa full consideration, $25,000 in Illinois bonds, drawing 6 per cent., and selling in the market at about 17cts. The secretary who was completely astonished at this noval proceeding, ask- ed if this stock was tendered as a payment for the receipt? To which question, an affirmative answer was given, and if he did not like to cancel the bar- gaia, he could leave it; but, circumstances might compel him to alter his will ere long. The secre- tary very wisely held on to the bonds, and ‘ think- ing like many others that a birdin the hand is worth two in the bush,” took French leave. There 1s a moral to be drawn from the above, and let those who live in expectation, always be pre- pared for disappointments. Beat this who can!— Whose turn next? Tremenvous Reticious ExcitEMENT RELATIVE to THE Enp or THE Worup, anp THE Day or Jupement, at Newarx.—The celebrated Father Miller, the preacher and prophet of the Millennium, or day of judgment, to take place next April, has created a prodigious excitement at Newark, where hisgreat tentis erected. The reports which we have given, day by day, including also the Rev. Dr. Brownlee’s sermon, has awakened this city, and sentomt thansands to see the Mi lennium prophet. and his believers at Newark. In order to gratify the avidity of the people, we give to-day, a most beautiful engraving of the head of FatherMiller, which is considered a most excel- lent likeness—and to-morrow we shall give another splendid engraving, exhibiting a view of the camp ground--the great tent—the crowds of listeners— and the “ tout ensemble” of the scene. This subject—the day of judgment, or the com- mencement of the Milleanium—is beginning to at- tract a great deal of attention in the city, and among the clergymen. We should not be surprised if it were to be the topic of much sermonizing in the pul- pits to-morrow. ‘The regular and sensible clergy ought to take up the matter—and stay the march of folly and fanaticism if they can. Indeed, the pre- sent religious awakening takes the wind out of Dickens’ “ Notes.” The progress of Millerism has been singular. We hear that a large number of wealthy individuals, convinced of the doctrines of Miller, have sold off their houses and property, for the purpose of invest- ing the proceeds in New Jerusalem stock. Every day is adding to their influence, fanaticism and wealth. To-morrow, Prophet Miller makes his re- ply to Dr. Brownlee. Probably 30,000 persons will be there. New Consut to Harirax, N. S.—We under- stand that Charles H. Delavan, Esq., has been ap- pointed Americaa Consul at Halifax, Nova Scotia. This is a good appointment. Mr. Delavan is a son of General Delavan, of revolutionary memory—is a great champion of the temperance cause—a cor- respondent of Father Matthew—has been engaged for fourteen years in commercial affairs, and was wee <Breiont eee divewtor in-building an csytenr for aged females.

Fanny El:sler refused to dance at Vienna for her own emolument, but dances for charity—each time taking a box, and paying £50 first. She was escorted home in triumph, and the Emperor of Austria sent her an autograph letter of thanks, and rich parure of diamonds. In New Orleans, Ludlow and Smith have com- menced the erection of a theatre, to be called the New St. Charles, on the site of the old theatre of the same name. The Picayune says—“ Our theatri- cals are springing suddenly up into brighter pros- pects than ever before. The New American is fast verging toward completion ; the new St. Charles is in a fair way ; and the ruins of “ Little Camp” will soon, we hear, give place to a magnificent opera- house.” Groans or THE Stare Barner.—Our amiable friend, Thurlow Weed, by the breeches of Ma- homet, Barber to the State of New York extra- ordinary, blubbers in the following way, over the defeat of the ultras:— Tur Evrction.—We are beaten, not by the “ meagre” majority anticipated, but by an avalanche! ‘The State has gone against us by some 20,000!

Ur—Ur.—Since the Waterloo deteat of the whigs State stocks of New York have advanced 8 to 4 per cent. A sign The Albany Argus of yesterday morning sums up * PORTRAIT OF MR. The Miller Camp Meeting at Newark—Fa- ther Miller’s Sermon about the Pope and Napoleon Bonaparte, Newank, Friday, Nov. 1th. The last sermon that I reported and sent you of Father Miller’s, was from the first part of the 11th chapter of Daniel; and brought the history of the world down to the commencement of Pagan Rome, that is 158 B. C.—the time when Pagan Rome be- came connected with the people of God, by the league mentioned in Daniel c. 11 v. 23; and in the 8th and 9th of the Ist of Maccabees, and in the 12th book of Josephus, chapter 10th, section 6th. Father Miller continued this sermon, taking for his text the remainder of che 1th of Daniel, which he said applied to Pagan Rome,PapalRome,and Na- poleon Bonaparte, and so brought the history of the world in detail down to the present day. And as this sermon, with those I have already reported,and sent to you, embrace the sum and substance of the Millerite doctrines, I cannot do better than give you this as the last of the series, and then leave the learned theologians to reply and confute him. It is necessary, however, to a right understanding of the sermon that you lay the text before your readers, as without it, the sermon connot be understood. Here it ist— 23 And after the league made with him he shall work deceitfully ;for he shall come up. and shall become strong with a small people. 24. He shall enter penieanty: even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers’ fathers; he s! scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches; and he shall forecast his devices against the strong holds, even for a time. 25. And he shall stir up his power and his paras against the king of the south with a great army; and the king of the south shall be stirred up to battle with a very great and mighty army; but he shall not stand; for they shall forecast devices against him. ‘96. Yea, they that feed ofthe portion of his meat shall destroy him, and his army shall overflow; and many shall fall down slain. 27. And both these king’s hearts shall be to do mischief, they shall speak lies at one table;but it shall not pros- ; for’ yet the end shall be at the time appointed. 23. Then shall he return into his land with great riches ‘d his heart shall be against the holy covenant; and all do explo’ nd return to his own land. . At the time appointed he shall return, and come to- ward the south; butit shall not be as the former, o¢ as the latter. 20, For the ships of Chittim shall come against him; therefore he shall be grieved, and return, and have indig- nation against the holy covenant; so shall he do; he shall even return,and have intelligence with them that forsake the holy covenant. 31. And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shail take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate. 82. And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries; but the people that do know their bod shall be strong, and do exploits. ‘93. And they that understand among the people shall instruct many; yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many d ‘34. ‘Now when they shall fall, they be holpen with a little help; but many shall cleave to them with flatteries. 35. ‘And some of them of Mabendoadlie J shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the of th for a ti sted 85g ANY ue kang shalt Uo according to hie wills aod ne shali exalt himself, and magnity himself aboveevery god, andshall speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished— for that that is determined shall be done. 37. Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women,nor regard any god; for he shall mag. nify himself above all. 38. But in his estate shail he honor the God of forces; and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honor with gold, andallver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things. 39° Thus shall he doin the most strong holds with a strange god, whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory; and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide the land for gain. 40. And at the time of the end shall the king of the south wash at him; andthe king of the north shall come against im like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shallenter into the countries —and shall overflow and pass over. 41. He shall enter also into the glorious countries shall be overthrown; but these shall escape of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon 42. He shall stretch forth his hand also upos the coun- and the land of Egypt shall not escape. 43. But heshall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over allthe precious things of Egypt; and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his steps. 44. But tidings out of the east and out ofthe north shall trouble him; therefore he shell go forth with great fury to destroy, and utterly te make away many. 45 And he shall plane the tabernacles of tween the seas in the giorious holy moun’ cometo his end, and none shall help him. Father Miller proceeded :—Tiberius after the league did work deceitfully, and did all deseribed in the 24th verse. The King of the Sonth in the 25th verse is the King of Egypt ; he did not stand ; Cleopatra and Antony cast devices against him; they that feed of his meat, means Antony taking his wife Cleopatra away from him. ‘Both king’s hearts shall be to do mischief”—that is, Antony and Octavius Caesar worked deceitfully with Ptolemy and their own wives ; they told lies at the same ta- ble ; this is notorious that Antony and Octavius were two of the greatest liars in the world ; and it passed into a saying “‘ Youare as big a liar as Mark Antony and Octavius Cesar.” “ Yet the end shall be at the time appointed ” John tells us of the time in the Revelations, for Daniel in the form of an an gel told him’Pagan Rome should last hehe that was the mark of the beast. It began 158 B. C. ; therefore it ended 508 A.C. “Then shall he _re- turn,” &c. This was Octavius who didso. ‘ No: ag the former or the latter.” The former was Ju- lius Cesar, and the letter was Antony when they went to Egypt. The ships of Chittim (30th y.) did come against the Roman Government. Chittim was the land on the North side of the Adriatic Sea. The northern nations came in ships and overrun Western Rome, Alaric the Goth, the Huns aud Vandals. ‘* He shall have :ntelligence with them that forsake the Holy Covenant.” This refers to those Christians who fought on the side of Pagan Rome. The sanctuary of strength was the city of Rome. This was polluted by the Goths offering up human sacrifices to their idols. Ultimately “the dai- ly sacrifice” was taken away, and “ the abomiua tion that maketh desolate set up.” This latter was Papal Rome. To do this the papan Kings had to be converted. Well, Clovis, King of France was con- verted in 496 A.C. and embraced Christianity ; and by his influence and arms he converted the rest of the 10 Kings. The last King converted was the King of Germany,who in 508 A.C. took up arms for the cause of Christ. In this year all the ten Kings were Chris- tianised and Paganism ceased. This is the end of the beast or the years; and brings us down to 508 A.C. What then? Daniel says (ch. 12 v. 11) that from the time of the setting up of the “‘abomi- nation” tll its powerceased, there should be 1200 days or years. s palaces be- in; yet he shall Papac; a woes 087A. C. AS bebe see e200 1798, the very year that Bonaparte put down the Pope’s power. In 1798 Berthier took the Pope prisoner ; his power asa Bishop over the Kings then ceased, andso did all the civil power of this “abomina- tion.” From the 32d to 35th verse of our text Damel firs us the acts of this power—the Pope. From the 35th to the 39th he gives us the character of the Pope. And from the 39th to the 45th he gives us a clear history of Bonaparte and his power. Now read those parts of the text. (Here half the congregation turned to their Bibles.) The Pope corrupted by flattery; that is by worshipping pic- tures, images, Virgin Mary, and so on, exactly as your Protestant priests flatter you at this day, with the hope that there will be a 1000 years of millen- niun on earth; it is all a fable. ‘* Those that do exploits” means the martyrs. They resisted the power of the Pope; and I hope next year his /hu!/ power will go by th hull board. hagpes my, helbagy but your ministers say you mustn’t receive instruc ‘ion’ froma Millerite, "Why I'd as soon take in- struction froma Mormon as any one if it was good ; bat your bad ministers say they'll instruct you in the Bible. Oh, yes. And they'li be sure to instruct ‘on 80 as to vay te money, if they can, (Great fadgier,) Bie verse tells exactly of the suf- ferings of the martyrs under the Pope. The Pope LS ATS a MILLER. sent armies to Piedmont, and slew the Waldenses, and others in other places. “By capt ? Well, they were imprisoned in the Inquisition. In those days it was notorious that if a Catholic priest cast his longing and lascivious eye upon a man’s wife or daughter, or property, he had only to say of that man, “he’s a heretic ;” the man was shut up in the Inquisition and the priest got his property and se- duced his wife or po wom or both. Now you see what wicked ministers do. {t's so with Pro- testant priests in the present day. They're af- ter your wives and daughters for the gratifica- tion of their shocking lusts; and therefore they hate to think of the judgment next year. ‘‘Holpen with a little help.” " The German princes though Catholics, did belp their subjects a little against the Pope, to prevent a decrease of their own power. “The time of the end,” in the 35th verse, is the ead of papal power in 1798. The 36th verse, then, be- gins the eharacter of the Pope. He did do aceord- ing to his will; his will was law for 1290 years—time, times, and a half He magnified himself over every pean God, and above God himself. How? Why, ne granted indulgences to pardon sin, both in this world and the next, before the sin was committed. He sent a man to Germany with a sloop load of in- dulgencies. A man might murder his father or mother for twelve shillings and six pence. He could ravish a virgin for about ten or eleven shillings, and commit adultery with his neighbor's wife for less, and be forgiven here and hereafter ; he could com- mit incest with his own sister, mother, or daughter, for a very trifling sum; and he could even strike a priest—the highest possible crime—asgreata crime as for Father Miller to strike the priests of the present day for abont four or five dollars of our money. Look at the word “indulgences” in Buck’s Theological Dictionary, and you'll see all about it You know the story of the wag who got an indulgence from a priest to commit a nameless robbery; he afterwards robbed that very priest; the priest said, “*You’ll go to hell for this.” The wag pulled out the indul- gence and said, “I beg your pardon, my dear sir; I've got my pardon for it here, in your own han writing. (Laughter.] ‘He shall prosper till the in- dignation be accomplished.” This is till the last vial of God’s wrath be poured out—in 1843. Nor “regard the God of his fathers.” That is the God of paganism. ‘‘Nor the desire of women.” What, don’t the Pope regard the desire of women? [Laugh- ter] No; not externally to the wor.d—however li- centious and adulterous the priests may act in_pri vate, they must n’t let any onit leak out. The Pope allows no priest to marry, nor to have any desire tor women, as in the 37th verse. You know the other day a priest at Lockport married a very fine young girl; well, he was obliged to divorce her in less t three months. ‘Honor the God of forces,” that is, the God of arms—he always had an army at his command. The rest of the 38th verse means the Catholic system of worshipping pictures of the Vir- gin Mary, and images, and the cross, with gold and ver ornaments, and precious stones, and pleasant igs, as you all know they do. The 89th verse refers to his making the dead saints—St. George, St. Patrick, and so on—rule over many; some, prin- cipally the women, chose the Virgin Mary to rule overthem. ‘‘And divide the land for gain.” That is, he will sell a kingdom every now and then, when he wanted money. His first act was to sell three Ringdolns to Charlemagne, which caused five hun- dred years war. He sold all South America and Mexico, and he sold the Canadas to the French. He sold part of France to England and part of Eng- land to France; he brought on civil wars all over Europe, and caused all sorts of ruin and misery un- til the time of the end, 1798, when the King of the North, Bonaparte, came against him, as described inthe 40th verse. Then ended the civil power of the Pope, and his authority over kings. Look at the 40th verse. ho took away the power of the Pope? Bonaparte. Very well; then he became, after he took the Pope prisoner, the principal ruler in the Roman government, and the personification of the power of the Pope. The word “him,” in the 40th verse, then, means Bonaparte, who was also a Catholic. Who was the nation south of France? Spain. The king of Spain pushed at him. So did the King of the North, that is, Great Britain, with horsemen. | The Pope had been sent by Bona- parte to Sienna, in Tuscany, then to Florence, then to Grenoble, then to Valence, where he died, Au- gust 19, 1799. The 40th verse describes the alliance entered into by the¢kings of Spain and Sardinia in the south, and Great Britain on the north, for six years. The two former were to attack the French in the south, which they did, and this was the celebra- ted Vendee war. Great Britain agreed to pay £200,000, and to furnish 20,000 horsemen, a a large fleet, commanded by Nelson. They came against Bonaparte ‘‘ like a whirlwind,” that is, they ianded in the south before the French knew of their coming. Spain, however, seceded, and the King of Sardinia fled. The fleet went up the Mediterra- nean and took the French fleet. ‘He shall enter into the countriesand shall overflow and pass over.” Bonaparte literally did do this—he overflowed lands, th idity of his - to this day. ‘He shall enter also into the glorious land.” That was Ss ape is called a glad- some land. ‘“‘ But these shall escape out of his hands, even Edom and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon. You all remember how this was true. Bonaparte went to Syria,tried to conquer it, but was defeated at Jean D’Acre by Sir Sid- ney Smith. So Edom and Moab escaped. “And the land of Egypt shall not escape” Itdid not You know he landed his army and conquered there. All Lower Egypt he conquered. ‘But he shall have power over the treasures of silver and gold, and the precious things of Egypt.” Wasn’t this true? One of his Generals says he got more treasure and riches, and reonal property in Egypt than in every other part of the world—that is he retained more of hat plunder afier his abdivation. He levied contri- butions on the Egyptians which supported his army, besides bringing a great deal away with him. “An the Libyians and Ethiopians, shall be at his steps.”” This was true. When he landed first, it was on that part of the coast formeriy called Lybia. And he tought his last battle in Upper Egypt or Ethiopia— that was the battle of the Pyramids, with the Mamelukes. He just stepped into Lybia and Ethio- pop att at his steps,although he didn’t conquer them as he did Egypt proper— Lower Kgypt. rat tidings out of the eastand out of the north shall trou- ble him.” How wonderfully was this fulfilled These bidings were the news of I Alliance ; out of the east—Austria and Pru: out of the north—Great Britain and Russia.— These tidings troubled him more than all elise, and finally proved his overthrow. This news caused his instant return to France. What then? what says the text? Therefure he shall go forth with great fury \o destroy, and utterly to make away many!” This part of the ppraphery relating to Bonaparte has been more wonderfully fulfilled than any other. Itis as clear an account of his campaign to Russia as could have been written. He tid ge forth with fury, with 400.000 men to destroy the Holy Alliance and their armies. Didhe doit? No. at did hedo? He utterly made away with many,—that is, made away with many thousands of his own men. He made away utterly with 300,000 or 350,000 men of hisown army. A greater destruction of life and property than was seen in that campaign had not been known since the wars of the Greeks and Per- sians. Whena man causes the destruction of his enemy’s property, we say, “he has When a man causes the destruction of children’s property,wesay, ‘‘ he has utterly made away with it.” Now for the last verse that refers to Bonaparte. The verse of the Ith chapter of Daniel. ‘ He shall plant the tabernacle of his palaces between the seas.” A tabernacle means a dwelling place . ‘‘of his palaces” means a princely dwelling place. Bonaparte did this. He set up the tabernacle of his ce in Italy; he was crowned King at Milan in y 26, , of that land. Italy lies between two seas, and it is the glo- rious land, or mountain of delight. To “plant the tabernacle of his emi cai means to establish him- self asa King. Now for the last of him. ‘ Yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.” How true—how very truly this was fulfilled! How suddenly he came to the end of his power—the most powerful mouarch—the most fortunate warrior of modern times! He had destroyed 3,000,000 of men’s lives; dethroned and conquered half the Kings of Europe—disposed ot their kingdoms—had com- manced 2,000,000 of veteran soldiers—had the trea- sures of the earth poured out at his feet—yet in one short hour—at the battle of Waterloo, he came to hisend. There were none to help him. All for- sook him. He had had 7 kings under him—a vast oumber of marshalls—ruled over 25,000,000 of Frenchmen, who ad him as a god—com- manded an army of 140,000 mea ; in one hour, the world seemed at his feet—-in the next he came to his end. Of all those kings and marshalls, and soldiers there were none that could help him—all their power was struck lifeless, and he surrendered himself a miserable prisoner to his bitterest enemy, to escape aninstant, bya wretched, lingering death. In that hour he came to his end, for thea he was dead to the world—none to help him. The Infidels say he had help; that he had a | eel help him; that governor broke his heart; ¢ had a doctor; so he had, and he quarrelled with him. he had clothes; so have the state prison birds. (Laughter.) His mother was one of the richest women in Europe; her money could have hired soldiers; but she couldn't help him; his end was come. God had spoken, and down tumbled that great Monarch, Bo-na-par-ty. (This is the way Mr. M. pronounces it) He married a second wife, a beautiful woman—-the daughter of a powerful king—yet they couldn’t help him; she had ason by him, yet he couldn't help him. Neither could his brothers on their thrones. Thus we see the fulfil- meat of this remarkable prophecy. What next? Read the 12th and last chapter of Daniel's prophe- cies very carefully, and see what he said should take place between the downfall of Bonaparte and ‘he end of the world in 1843:— And at that time shall Michael! stand up” You remember that time 1815. I shall never forget it. In that year! was converted. In that year there was a tremen- dous awakening to Christianity and revival in the churches. God |was™ then sealing he race of men. Sealing themt to the hour of Mis coming in 1843. We are the last of God’s sealing time,my friends a tremendous outcry and “Amen,” “Glory to God, “Amen,” “Glory,” “Glory,” “Amen.” next? “There shall be a time of trouble such as never was.” Well, havn’t we lately had atime of trouble such as never wast earth have all been troubled; the chur ches! troubled; the politicians have been troubled; the Sieve sh ova was oaning, and shouting of F ctond seal Meastamers.” What The nat 8 of the ebeen financiers have been troubled; the laborers and the merchants have allbeen troubled, and distressed— we have had a general bankruptey—we have had the Chief Magistrate of the nation taken away—we have had trouble on trouble in al! classes, such as never was, murders, rapes, robberies, adulteries, mobs every where, wheredom, and crimes without number literally overflowing the land, till men’s hearts have been troubled, and they have stood aghast. And the time of this trouble is even now—it is not past—the last seene of the trouble is not yet. Some have cried out * Land, ho!” but it is not so! The greatest trouble of all will be at the last great day in 1843! [Groaning and cries et “Glory,” “Come Lor quickly.”] That trouble will then last perhaps six ‘or seven days before the world is finally consumed. Husbands shall see their wives caught up to heaven, while they are burning in flames onearth, [Cries of Merey, Lord,” groans, and shouts of “ Glory,” “ Hallelujah!”] Or parents shall rise to heaven on that day, and see'their children plunged into the torments of hell forever. [Terrible groans, and criesand shouting of ‘‘ Glory,” and “* Mercy, and “Hallelujah!”} Brothers and sisters shall be parted never to embrace again. [Here the women shriek- ed and groaned.) And all this in a few short months. [Cries of “Amen,” “ Glory,” “ Halle- Injah!”] They shall sit in heaven, and see their kindred consumed in the fiery lake that burns for ever for six or seven days, even as Noah was shut up in the ark for six or seven days, whilst the world was being destroys, (Here the women wept again and groaned, and some’ cried >“ Horrible,” and some shouted ‘ Amen,” * Glory to God,” “Come Lord,” ‘ Hallelujah,” ‘‘Amen.”} Then will be a“ time of trouble, such as’ never was upon earth” But“ the'people shall be delivered, every one that is writtenin the book.” Ob, glorious pro- mise! [“ Amen,” “Glory,” ‘Bless God,” ‘* Hal- lelujah,” were shouted.) And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlast- ing contempt. This is the last resurrection. See how close it comes on the end of Bonaparte. And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness, as the stars for ever and ever. Ministers of the gospel think of this. [‘ Amen.”} But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book even to the time of the end. When. is that? Notthe end, but the time’of the end. That is in 1798. Manyshall run to “and fro, and knowledge shall be increased. This hasbeen done. All per- sons are turning over the book of Daniel. yen In- fidels and every body are now reading Daniel. I preached lately at Keesville, and the next day all the Bibles in the place were sold, for every body wanted to read aoe see what Daniel said. In ton they haye lately reprinted large editions of the Bible—a thing that hasn’t been done for years ; be- cause all the people there and round about want to read Daniel. Every body 1s reading—every body is writing about Daniel, every body 1s talking about Daniel—and all the preachers are preaching about Daniel! [Cries of “Amen.” “ Glory sto God.”] Now let ussee what Daniel says next,in this last chapter :— 6. Then I Daniel looked, and behold, there stood other two, theene on this side of the bank of the river, and the other on that side of the bank of the river. 6. And one said to the man clothed in linen,which was upon the waters of the river, How long shall it beto the end of these wonders 7 7. AndI heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he heli up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware im that liveth forever that it shall be for a time, times, amd an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished. He sware by Him that liveth for ever it should be for a treme, re and a half ! Wellthen, it began in 583A. C. It was to last time, times, a nalf— that is 1260 years, and the wonders were to end in 1798, which they did. Then says Daniel, ‘“‘ Iheard, but I understood not; then said I O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things ?”— The reply was, “Go thy way, Daniel; for the words are closed up. and sealed tll the time of the end ;” that is, till1798. Then he rays, many shali be purified and made white and tried ; well that has come to pass; “but the wicked shall do wickedly and none of the wicked shall understand ; but the wise shall understand.” How true this is; and what a warning it holdsforthto the wicked. Now comes the closing scene. rds of that great Hear the last wor e prophet, Daniel:—‘‘ From the time that the daily sacrifice [of human beings by Pagans] shall be taken away ; and abomination that maket ate {the Papal power] set up there shall be a thousand, two hundred and ninety days!” 1290 years. The “ abo- mination” was set up in 508 A.C. It ceased 1290 ears after; that is in 1798. How truly this was ulfilled. But you'll say, when is the end :f all to be. Hear Daniel inthe 12th verse of the last chap- ter. ‘Blessed is he that waiteth and cometh to the thcusand, three hundred, and_ five and thirty days.” That is 1335 years. When will that be, I hear allsay. When did it begin? In 508 A. C. Now then? <Tphe time began « 608 A.C. Daniel’s days to 335 End of the world, 1843 Then said he [ to |, “But go thou thy way till the end be ; for thou shalt rest and stand in thy lot at the end of the ee Daniel “standing in his lot” means that he shall rise again a' the resur- rection. Then consider of your end next year! [Groans.] Think of the closing scenes of 1813. {More groans and weeping, and cries of “glory,” “tamen.”] The dial pointsto the time. [The wo- men wept and groaned.] See how the moments fly like the sand in the hour glass. [Groaning, weep- ing, and cries of “‘glory.”] What will become of the sinner?

Don Pe- dro Lemus has been appointed to the chief com- mand of the Yucateco forces, who are p:omised an easy victory. Our next news/rom the Gulf will be very inter- esting. Anattack will have been made on Cam- peachy, and perchance on Galveston, and a sea fight betwe the Texian navy and that of Mexico. Navau.—The U.S. sloop of war Marion, Com- mander Armstrong, sailed from Norfolk on the 8th inst, with a cracking westerly breeze. The fri- gate Constitution, Capt. Parker, remained in Hamp- ton Roads, but probably sailed on the %h, having a fair wind. Orders had been received at Norfolk to fit out the brig Truxton, which was launched at the Gos- port Navy Yard last March. The schooners lately returned from Florida have been turned over to the Navy and their crews dis- charged. We learn that they are to be fitted again for service, probably on the African coast. It appears by this that the squadron for Vera Cruz is knocked on the head. The U.S. steam frigate Mississippi, trom New York, was at anchor in the lower bay, at Boston, Thursday morning. She probably went up to the city the same afternoon. The U. 8. schooner Flirt, L. M. Powell, Com- mander, arrived at Savannah on the 7th inst. She 1s from Norfolk, bound to Tampa Bay, on a coast survey. She had received some damage in the late gale on her way to the Gulf of Mexico—main boom carried away, but saved—lost her fore topsail and topsail yard, and fore-bonnet. She put into that port for some repairs. Officers and crew all well.
