The Tomb of Aaron

Far to the north, where the broad valley
OF the Arabah melted into mist, lay some.
thing blue and shining. rejecting the sky.
There was no mistaking it. 1t was the
Dead Lake Of bitterness. that entombs the
cursed cities on the plain. On its left are
the ever fertile cliffs Of salt--on its right the
gloomy mountains of Moab. These objects,
however, were in the far horizon. -. d.
We passed over a heap of ruins, once per
haps convent when Petra was a bishoprick
and along by the fallen walls of an inclosure
that may have been a garden and ascend
ing by reservoir whose arched covering is
still perfect, climbed to the extreme summit
by steps cut in the rock. Here we stood on
the undisputed locality of the last scene in
the life of the great High Priest of Israel.
Here he stood on this very rock, where
we are standing, and surveyed the same des-
olate scene that now lies before us. Behind
rise the bald swelling ridges of Mount SER,
the impossible land of Edom; in front, reach.
ing out to a wide horizon, the great and ter.
rible wilderness. To that desolate region he
had accompanied his people in their wan.
derings of forty years. Below lies the broad
valley of the Arabah, then swarming with
the tents of the hosts of Israel. And yon.
der, perhaps, where that sand cloud is Just
now rising from the desert, the pillar OF
cloud rested immopabe over the sacred cur,
tains Of the tabernacle In view of the
mighty multitude he can make atonement
for no longer; in view just of the borders OF
the Promised Land, to him forbidden. and
underneath this clear blue canopy Of heaven,
Aaron calmly put off his sacerdotal robes
and surrendered his Office and his life TO.
go;he-.
A small, plain building covers the summit
II is vau.ted within, and covered by a fat
roof, one Of which is dome. Christian
feet are not allowed to enter the building
We looked in through small aperture in
the door and saw only an altar shaped tomb
covered with pall, like the ordinary
mosque tombs at Cairo This building is
erected on the ruins of former structures
We found round it small fragments Of mar
ble and aiabaster, evidently the remains o
some more sumptuous construction, perhaps
Of the early Christian, or even of Jewish
times. The claim Of this spot to be the las,
resting place Of the great high priest has
the strongest evidence in its favor. The
! mountain corresponds to the locality given
in the narrative, aud some monument to re
cord the fact has been perpetuated from the
earliest times. The tomb Of Aaron has been
revered alike by Christian, Musselman, and
Jew, and his very dust, it is not at all i'm
probable to believe, still reposes in its noun
tain sanctuary.

half those times followed by the expulsion

terribly shattered, but saved
Then, when the necessity for exertion and
determination were over--when the physi.

that darling little Eveleen might live, after
many weeks Of struggle between life and

when the beautiful and sorrowful wife had
blessed him through her kisses and tears
and all knew that under God, only such an
almost fierce determination could have saw.

Not as in Little Sister Eveleen did the

life that brings so thrilling recollection as
that Of the young fathers struggle for the

IMPROVED CULTURE OF TREEs.-M. Nil
lot Brule, watching the phenomena of that
wonderful partnership established by the
All-Wise between insect and vegetable life,
has discovered that the bifuraction of trees
is affected by caterpillars and other leaf-eat-
ers eating the buds through the centre. He
found, further, that fruit might be dead
within the same way as The wood, and that
by the intersection Of buds, two or four may
be made out Of one, and the fruit. branches
multiplied. In the place Of those assiduous
pruners and intersectors, the insects, he uses
his penknife or q bit of stiff paper, and I" ar.
ranges the trees in a way at once the most
picturesque and fantastic. Bnder his fin,
