Flrst lmpressIOn OF Jerusalem,

We pitched tents n an olive ground

This cit !, for city that has such Il
history, seems strangely destitute of
antiquities. Saving the temple area and
the Holy Sepulchre, thore il no relic Of

labyrinths of the city you may now and

only traces which successive eopquerors
have left behind them are the mounds of
rubbish beneath which all traces of
Jerusalem rs il was in old times are
buried. ind. The large amount of
vacant space within the walls. There is

walls OF some pats OF the city, AS you
look down hence you cannot see the
narrow, deep.cut streets, but you come

superhuity of ground is noticeable in the
Temple area. In wandering about the

But as you try TO explore, dark figure

Mackcrel or the DeyOnshire Coast.

/ Often on the Devon coasts, during the
sunny summer days, the visitor may
observe noisy flight OF sea-blrds,
wheeling over an asitatod spot on the
otherwise calm sea. The disturbance is
caused by the closely swimming schools
of mackerel, pursuing with eagerness
their food, and driving it to the surface
then the hapless prey is bounced on by
the sea-mews. No appreciate diminu-
ton, however, is wrought in their num-
hers bv this perpetual persecution they
herd in such myriads that during n
swell they are flung in countless numbers
on the beach, and perish the mackerel
seine, too, is never drawn Without multi
tudes being entangled in il. Nature,
however. is ipexhaustibly prolific : man,
fish, birds, and storms seem to make no
difference to the supply of these silvered
fish, and whenever whitehall abound
mackerel are sure to follow in their
wake. They almost seem to catch some
of their characteristic tiuts from the
food, which they so greedy devour.
Those who only know the mackerel as
he lies on tishmonger's stall though
they may admire his symmetry and
lustre, have no idea what his beauty is
when first taken then the Characteristic
blue markings on his green back are
lustrous and itidescent, while below the
most exquisite silvery whiterees is
flushed with pink and varied with flying
CLEANS of gold as he pants ont his life. f.
In short, no one who has beheld thou /.
sand macllerel drawn to land need any
more betake himself to the hues of the /
dying dolphin when he wishes to paint
the changeful colors OF brilliant sunset. I
The beautiful spectacle might well soften

ORIGIN or CoAL FROM WEEDS. -
a French Geologist, in recent memoir
upon the origin OF coal, takes the ground
that it is derived entirely from marine
plants, such as fucus, or sea-weed,
which are destitute of woody fibre and
that its first place Of deposit must nee
essarily have been at the depth of the
sea, and in place different from that in
which these plants had their growth.
The arguments adduced by him are
varied and igenious, and will doubtless
be responded to III due course of time
by those who maintain that the same
substance was derived from the gradual
accumulation of terrestrial plants of
somewhat varied forms.
