This svai an in-1 suit offered to my dignity. A few days afterwards, I the Telrarch deigned to pay me a visit. Ilia do-,re portment was gravo and deceitful. Ho peetended that hi religion forbade him and his attendanta to I sit down at tho tables of tho gentiles, and to offer up libations wjlh them. I thought it expedient to accept of his excuse; but from that moment I was convinced that the conquered had declared them- solvcs tho enemies of the conquerors. At that time, Jerusalem was, of all conquered cities, the most diflicult to govern. So turbulent wcro the people, that 1 lived in momentary dread nf an insurrection. To repress it, I had but a single Centurion, and a handful of soldiers. I requostcd a roinforccmont from the Prefect of Syria, who in formed me that ho had scarcely troops sufficient to defend his own province. Insatiate thirst of em pire! to extend its conquest beyond the means of defending them Among tho various rumors which came to my , cars, there was one that attracted my attention. A young man it was said had appeared in Galilee, preaching with a noble unction, a new law in the name of the God who had sent him. At first, I was apprebonslvo that his design was to stir up the peo ple against the Romans; but soon were my fears dispelled. Jesus of Nazareth spoke rather as the friend of tho Humans than of the Jews. One day in passing by the place of Siloe, where ; iheto was a great concourse of people, I observed 1 in tho midst of the group a young man leaning ! against a tree, -who was calmly addressing the mul titude. I was told that it was Jesus. This I could easily havo suspected, so groat was tho dilTeronco between him and thoso who were listening to him. Ho appeared to be about thirty years of ago. His golden colored hair and beard gave to Ins appear anco a celestial aspect. Never have I seen a sweet-1 cr or a moro sercno countenance What a contrast between him and his hearers with their black beards! and tawny complexions. Unwilling io iulerrupt him by my presence, I continued my walk, but sig- nificd to rny Secretary to join tho croup and listen. I Mv Sirrr'inrv' nnmn wns Mnnlino tin iv t in 1 granrson of the chief of tho conspirators, who en- cam,,cj jn Ktrusia. waiting for Catalina. Man'.ius' was an ancient inhabitant of Judea, and well ac- quaintcd with tho Hebrew language. Ho was do- voted to me, and was worthy of my confidence. On returning to the Pretorium, I found Manlius, who related to me the words that Jesus had pronounced at Siloe. Never have I heard in the Portico, or read in tho works of tho Philosophers, any thing that can bo compared to the maxims of Jesus. Ono of tho rebellious Jews, so numerous in Jerusalem, having asked him ifil was lawful to give tribulo to Cwsar, Jesus replied ; Render unto Caesar Ihe thingt thai ar; Caetar't, and unto God the things that are GimCs. It was on account of the wisdom of his sayings that 1 granted so much liberty lo the Nazarene ; for of Jesus addressed themselves, to wreak their ven-1 light, such as had boon seen at the death of the j o, nru some fight or ten itnmtn;u paper mills, as it was in my power to have had him arrested and ' geance on the Nazarene. great Julius Caesar.

O, Pilate ! evil awaits thee. If thou wilt not listen to tho words of thy wifo, dread the curves of a Human Senate, dread the frown of Caesar'.' lly this limo my limbic stops groaned under tho weight of the multitude. The Nazarnnc was bro't back to me. I ptoceeded to tho Hall of Justice, followed by my guards, and asked the penplo in a severe tone, what they doinandcd ! Tho death of thu Nazarcne, was their reply. For what critno ' Ho has blasphemod; he has prophesied tho ruin of tho Templo; ho calls himself tho Son of God tho Messiah tho King of the Jews.' Unman justice, said I, punishelh not such oflenres with death. 'Crucify him ! crucify him !' shouted (orlh the ro- lentlcss rabble The vociferations of tho infuriato multitude shook the palaco to its foundation. One man alone ap peared calm in tho rnidstoflhe tumult. Ho was liko unto the Statuo of Innocence placed in the tern- pics of Fuminides.
