How often has this masterpiece of Hebrai¢ literature been recited and heard, in certain mystic halls, charming reciter and . hearers by its-melodious rhetorie, while the grandest of its truths and beauties remained hidden beneath a vail of biological allegory. To reveal its recondite excellences, the briefest and best way is to give the passage, entire, with explanatory notes below it: “Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days (1) come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, ‘I jaxe -no pleasure in them ;’ while ‘the sun, or the light, or the moon, or the stars “.

THe INDIAN MASSACRE NEAR OREGON. — Relative to this affair, heretofore ‘mentioned, the Portland News of the 1 sii has the following additional particule .We yesterday afernoon a a brief conversation with Mr. J. W. Myers, head of the unfortunate train of emigrants. He informs us that there were 44 in the tram at the time of the attack, all, with the ex ion of one THinois family, from the State of Wisconsin. Eleven were killed’ outright by the Indians, Fw only fifteen are known to be survivors of pnd a oy that followed. Mr. Myers is pss on Fd the he ay that if six men had not deserted them in the first hour of Sar they would have beenable to have driven back the Indians, and defended themselves to the settlements. The foremost of the weak-kneed six was the man Snyder, of whose arrival at the Dalles we gave an account about three weeks ago. ly three ef these despicable wretches got through to the
settlements, and two of themare 80 ashamed of their conduet that they keep incognito. With the exception of a brother, Jos. yers, who leaves a wife and eight children in Geneva, Wisconsin, to mourn bis loss; Mr. Myers lost no relatives, though he beotight a largefamily through with him. Two girls, aged Se, il and 14, Mr. Myers believes to be alive, and held eaptive oe the Indians, and thinks that proper exertions might lead to their recovery.
