THE THRoNs OF SoLoMoN. The de-

giving some idea Of the exaggerated
spiendors which Eastern Imagination
tbows around all that relates to our
Grand Master The real Mason knows
thar the true throne Of King Solomon
as Divine JF,sd0m
" The sides OF It were pure gold, the
set emeralds and rubies, intermixed
~ .th pearls each of which was as large
..s an ostfich's egg The throne had
ssven steps. on each side were delinea-
I'D orchards full Of trees, the branches
Of which were OF precious stones, repre-
5enting fruit, ripe and unripe; on the tops
gf the trees were to be seen figures of
piumaged birds particularly tn pea
cock, the etaub and kurges. All these
birds were followed within arti fcalIy.
SO as to occasionally utter a tn ousand
melodeous sounds, such as the ears of
mortals never before heard. On the
first step were delineated vine branches
having punches of grapes composed of
various colors-of purple, violet, green
and red, so as to render the appearance
Of real fruit On the second step, on
each side of the throne were two lions of
terrible aspect, large as life, and formed
Of cast gold.
The nature Of this remarkable throne
was such that when Solomon placed his
foot on the first step, the birds spread
forth their wings and made a fiutttring
noise in the air. On his reaching the
third step, the whole assemblage of de-
mons and fairies and men repeated praise
Of the Dicty. When he arrived at the
fourth step voices were heard addressing
him in the following manner: "Son Of
David, be thankful for the blessings
which Almighty has bestowed upon
thee /" The same was repeated on his

sixth, the throne, the birds and animals,
became in motion, and ceased not until
lie had placed himself or the roy al seat
when the birds, lions and other animals,
. by secret springs, discharged a shower
Of the most precious perfumes on Solo
mon after which two OF the kurges de-
sccndei and placed the golden crown
upon his head.
Before the throne was a column of
Furnished gold, on the top of which was
y golden dove, which held in its bcak a
volume bound in silver, In this book
were written the Psalms Of David, and
{hc dove having presented it to the King,
lie read alond portion of it to the chill
llrcn of Israel. 1t is further related ihat
on the approach of wicked persons to
the throne, the lions were wont to set up
a terrible roaring, and to lash their tails
with violence; the birds also began to
bristle up their fea theirs, and the assem-
bly, of demons and genii to utter horrid
cries so, fear of them, no one dared to
be guilty of falsehood, but all confessed
their crimes. Such was the throne of

BELLs.-We Americans have at home
little opportunity to know the grand effects
produced by bells of large size, as they toll
forth their tones of an indescribable dignity
and solemrity-a deep base to all the varied
sounds of city life. The only large bells I
know in America are, that on the City Hall,
of New York, said to weigh 2l,0OC pounds,
and two at Montreal, upon the cathedral,
weighing 1000 pounds, which is the largest
ever cast in England, unless the new bell
for the Parliament clock be larger, the weight
of which I have not seen. The largest bell
in England, except, perhaps, the one just
mentioned, was cast in lS45, for York Min
ster, and weighs rather more than $1,000
pounds. The most noted of the other Eng.
lish bells are the Great Tom, at Oxford,
1900 pounds, that at Lincoln, little more
than 1000 pounds, and the principal one,
St. Paul's, little less than that. But the
bells on the Continent of Europe far arsurpass
those of Great Britain. AtErfurt, Germany,
is very famous bell, weighing over q 900
pounds, which was baptized by the name Of
Susanne. Itwas cast in l47S, while Colum-
bus was still exploring the Antilles, and
Martin Luther was child at school. As
stood by this noble bell, thought how often,
few years later, with his exquisite sense Of
musical effects, must the future Reformer
have listened, delighted with its deep tones,
as he went from house to house, begging for
himself and brother monks. And what re-
collections must have wakened within him,
when he stopped at Erfurt and preached,
while on his way to Worms, or toward the
close of life, when he came hither, the great
apostle honored and beloved by the third
part of all christendom.

SOUTH CAROLINA MAIDS OF THE OLDEN
T1MEs.-In turning overthe leaves Of very
delightful book, lately published, our eye
chanced to fall on the following petition,
signed by sixteen maids of Charleston, and
presented to tie Governor of that province
on March l, 1888:
To HIS ExcELLENcY Gov. JOHNSON :
The humble petition Of all the maids
whose names are underwritten
Whereas, we, the humble petitioners, are,
at present, in very melancholy disposition
of mind, considering how all the bachelors
are blindly captivated by widows, and our
youthful charms thereby neglected: the con-
sequence of this our request is that your
Excellency, will, for The future, order that
no widow shall for the future presume to-
marry any young man till the maids are pro-
vided for; or else pay each Of them fine
for satisfaction for invading our liberties;
and likewise a fine to be laid on all such
bachelors as shall be married to Widows
The great disadvantage it is to US old maids
is, that the widows, by their forward car
riages, do snap up the young men, and have

ABOUT EDITORIAL WORK.

We give the subjoined from the Methodist
Protestant, issued at Baltimore, to give our
readers some insight into editorial life and
labor. If they had some correct knowledge
of it, they would better appreciate and sym
pathise more with the editor and publisher
in their work, and would tighten their cares
and quicken their faculties by prompt remit
tances for the paper. But the article is an
experimental talk on the subject-read it F:
Did it ever occur to you, most agreeable
reader, that editorial life is not an unruffled
sea? Did you ever pause in looking over a
newspaper to think of the ceaseles toll that
is necessary to provide for you the columns
and paragraphs you so eagerly scan ? This
editorial writing-what ceaseless tapping
of mans brain it is! No matter how he
feels-no matter what scarcity there may be
of new topics-the paper must be out at the
appointed time, and his usual contributions
must gil the accustomed niche.
The limited space of a newspaper column
does not allow the editor to treat any subject
at large. lie must not attempt an extended
discussion, no matter what he writes about !;
but he is expected to touch on a variety of
themes every week, and to just touch them
nothing more so that his readers may not
be wearied by 1ong articles. To write long
essay or a series would sometimes be great
relief. But if he does either, ten chances
to one he will hear Of it.
The editor of the Southern Christian
Adcocatc recently ventured to discuss, in a
series of we'll written papers, some theme
which he supposed to be of vital interest to
his readers. But he soon found that it would
not do. His subscribers, some of them, re-
belled, and we believe his serial mover reach
ed its intended terminus. Once or twice in
a long editorial service, We have vcnturedto
do this dangerous thing. Fortunately We
heard no complaint, though we have no doubt
many were uttered. Now and then, howev-
or, we have been complimented by & brother
saying to US "That was very good article
of yours in last weeks paper, as jar as l
read, but it was so l0ng, was called off be-
fore had time to finish it."
Editorial writing is pleasant enough and
easy enough to man accustomed to it
when he has once determined what be shall
write about, But this selection of topics is
not easy. For single paper ortwo any mai
will find subjects at hand butwhen it comes
to writing to the same readers year in and
year out; when one calls up the subjects al.
ready presented, some briefly, others more
elaborately, either by himself or by CORES.
poudents, the difficulty of selecting so as to
avoid self repetition is quite embarrassing.
As to waiting till something suggests itself,
till it comes to you, that is out of the ques.
ton. The respectable but ill.named boy is
at your door already. He is calling for copy.
You must sit down and write at once. What
if half dozen personsin the Office are earn.

No SAFETY IN IRoN.-One of the chief
arguments that has been used in favor of
iron buildings and iron ships is their pre-.
sumed immunity from the dangers Of fire.
Within the past FIVE years numerous public
and private edifces have been built entirely
of iron-the london Crystal Palace giving
the idea grand start. Our Crystal Palace,
like the edi6ce now located at Sydenbap,
was-constructed of the supposed incQnZ "
tible materials, glass and iron, and a0o6S
ever supposed that in forty minutes It could
have been burned to the ground. The iron
ships fare no better, as we have seen in the
case of the Austria. It was supposed iron
hulls would resist the action of fire but the
Arabian reports that the Austria's sides were
falling to pieces; and the progress Of the
fire seems to have been as rapid, both at the
Palace and on board the ship, as in wooden
buildings or vessels, while the heat emitted
from the ferrugineous material was, of course,
infinitely greater. These examples would
seem to show that the fancied security Of
iron is to be exploded. like other lessons
in the school of experience We have to pay
very dearly for this.
