more successful survivors of the past
than those of other ancient Asatic ma
tions, the reason OF this success may lie
in the justice of things, Ethese literatures
being more original, and more vital, and
therefore more universally needed
The difficulty, however, of study, SO
long as diligence is rewarded by salts
factory results, or even the prospect Of
reaching them finally, only heightens
the interest and makes the whole theme
glow with attraction The history of
Manetho, the writings of Eratosthenes,
the illusions in Herodotus, Thucidides,
and even in Plato, the labors inaugurated
by Champollion for rightly interpreting
the symbols of hieratic language of
Egypt, create the hope of laying open
the whole enigma of ancient Egypt to
the light of day.
The grandest architecture of Egypt
and of India, indeed the browning glory
of the art of all nations, was the birth of
the religious sentiment. In Judea, in
ancient Greece, Rome, Persia, and in
Chrstendom, the art which religion in
spired excelled all other forms of art.
-Four things attest the supremacy of the
religious sentiment: 1. The Architecture
of all nations. 2. The authority and en-
during rank of books which embody a
peoples religion. 8. The surprising
eminence and enduring influence of the
persons who stand at the head of the
great historical religions f. The supe-
riority of the OrGtorao, to other forms of
music, the Oratorio having it's origin IN,
and being the expression of the religious
sentiment.
These four witnesses testify that the
Divine in Man, or, in more Epopular Ian
guage, that which connects humanity
with Divinity, is central, profound ere
alive, and enduring. The elimination of
the official representatives of the religious
sentiment, namely the priesthoods, into
the highest caste, among the nations of
antiquity, has It's cause in the rank which
the religious element was felt to hold in
the powers of humanity.

TREES GIR3LED BY MICE.-A Penn
sylvania correspondent of the Rural Nea0-
Yorker writes that he had three apple
trees girdled last winter. He took three
old boots, cut off the legs and slit them
open put shovel full Of fresh COW
manure to each leg and tied one around
each tree,covering the girdled part (about
three inches wide all around) and then
threw a couple ofshoyels full Of Garth
against each,to retain the moisture. They
have continued to grow as before,
thrifty, although the weather in April
or May was very dry.

Appropos of the mistake made by q cotem.

Z Appropos OF the mistake made by a cotem-
porary in reporting Sir Wilfred Lawson's
thing the "plasted7 Irish, instead of
saying " Glasgow" Irish Lord Brougham
was fond of telling similar story. A Bishop
at one of his country visitations, complained
that the church was badly kept, and in bad
repair, pointing out that the rain evidently

in finding in the local paper next day report.
ed thus shall not visit this id old
church again till it is in better order.n The
Bishops secretary thereupon wrote mildly
suggesting that what his lordship said was,
that he would not visit "thfs damp old
church again." But the editor in foot.note
said that, while gladly giving publicity to the
explanation he had every confidence in the
accuracy of his reporter.

THE HONEYMOON ABOLISHED The
Princess Louise and the Marquis of Lorne
were married on Tuesday. On Thursday
they received visit from the Queen. On
Saturday they went to Windsor,o on a visit
to the Queen. On the following Tuesday
they came to London and appeared in
public. This ought to give the quietus
to the honeymoon, one of the most absurd
institutions on the earth. Why should d
couple be doomed to whole month of
billing and cooling? Romeo and Juliet
would have tired of such feast of affec-
ton. The honeymoon is the cause of
domestic misery. That foolish month
sickens husband and wife of each others
society. Lord Penzance would have much
less to do in divorce business but for the
honeymoon. The painting William will
find that in less than month of uninter
rupted spooning he will have had sur
felt of Susan, and that surfeit will mar
the bliss domestic. May brides and bride
grooms have the wisdom to follow the
example of the royal Princess and noble
Marquis, and instead of the horrld loney-
moon, limit the period of uninterrupted
spooning to three days.-LOnd0n Figaro.

PRUNING RosEs.-June 27.-The June
roses are passing out of bloom and the
first flush of the Hybrid perpetuals is also
over. [ usually commence pruning at
this time by removing the Oldest stems
and branches and shorten those that are
left for another season. Pruning at this
time is quite an important operation with
those varieties from which blooms are
expected again this season. The various
classes of perpetual or monthly roses pro-
duce their flowers upon young shoots of
the present seasons growth therefore
the more new growth we can obtain more
roses. 1t is not only a good plan to prune
severely at this time, but to add strong,
stimulating manure to the soil if applied
in liquid form, SO much the better

than almost any other shrubby plant that

EAT rlsg n ELEorRIc cAR.BRAKE. 80 nav :

la PATENT ELECTRIC CAR-BRAKE.- "A new pa.
tent electric car brake was successfully test
ed last week on the Providence and Worces-
three-cup battery, placed under the seats en-.
tirely out of sight. Two cords, similar to the
common bed cord, one dark and the other
light, pass through the train connecting with
the engine, thus placing the entire train I'M
der control of the engineer. One cord puts
on the brakes and the other let's them off.
Zach car is Independent of the other. and
each can be operated bysa single movement.
The train running between Providence and
Woonsocket, at a rate of over forty miles an
hour, broke up in nineteen seconds. The cost
of maintaining the batteries is very slight, as
they, require to- be charged only twice a
