" What ! you wont write against

won't support an editor who can't be

Y-iu ire sir said we to our friend
I'olTrodorf who rejoined us as the
heavy tramp of our last angry visiter
died away on the ear, how impossible
it is for an editor to please every body.

see that the same paragraph which ex
cites the admiration of the one, will
prove the hostility of the other. And

is posted between two (ires j he ia sure

flXCIEXT BABYLON.
There is a little record of the early
history of the city of Babylon. Its
foundations were laid, it Is supposed,
by Nimrod, great grandson of Naoh,
not long after the dispersion of Babel,
It stood on both sides of the river
Euphrates, on an even and extensive
plain. It was surrounded by a wall,
incredible Var- it maj' geejn,-'of three
hundred and fifty feet m heighfctghty-
seven in thickneii, lad sixty miles' In
circumference forming an exact
square, fifteen miles on each side.
This massive wall wis made of Urpe ,
nuumiDuus uncss, no urmiy cemented,
as to render it perfectly solid. Aa
enormous ditch, lint J on both sides
with brick, and filled with water, en
compassed the city the si of which
may be nearly estimated from tht
fact, that tbc w.alli ofllic city wera
composed entirely of clay v taken "but
of it. '' '. .A
TThe city "was entered throngh 'thti

gates were tnree lowers ten feet in
heights also one on each of the four
cofner towers and the first gate, mak
ing in all three hundred and sixteen,
From the gates on one side of the city
to those on the opposite side, were 50
streets one hundred and fifty feet in
width. These fifty streets, crossing
each other at right angles, divided tho
city into six hundred and seventy six
squares. The houses stood on these
squares, a short distance from each
other, facing the street.
The central parts of these numerous
squares were, laid out in gardens,
walks and yards, and occupied' for.
many other useful 'and ornamental
purposes i so that, from the many va
cant spaces, not more than one half
of thcHgrfldnuas

(the extent1)f the city) in length. The
houses were built only on one side of
this street on the squares fronting
the wall --: -
The river Fuphrates, or rather a
branch of it, ran directly across the?
city from north to south. A wall of
the sime thickness, and similar to
that which surrounded the city, was
built on each side nf the river, h
these walls, where the river w as inter
sected by the streets, were massy bra
zen gates. From the several streets
there were gradiat descents to the
river, which was crossed in boats.
Through these gate, which were in
cautiously left open, Cyrus aod his

History has since confirmed the pre
dictions of the prophet. Long before
the Chirstian era, we are told that it
had become a pl.ice of solitude,"
and that it was " lying waste and nc-
lected."
In the fourth century, we are inform
ed that " its walls served . as a fence,
the city as a park, in which the kings
of Persia kept wiii beast f. lor hunt
A-traveller in the tvyelfth century
found it over-run with serpents, and
scorpions. In 1 T43, another travdle r
states that its' ruins were so effaced,
that there were hardly any vestiges of
Ihem to "point out" the situarion of the
