The Chinese Wall.

Mr.. Seward, who visited the great wal
of China during his visit to that country
recently gave the following description oil
that wonderful structure.
''Ths Chinese have been for at least
two or three thousand years wall making
people. 1t would bankrupt New York Or
Paris to build the walls of the City of Pc
kin. The great wall of China is the Great
Wall of the world 1t is forty feet high.
The lower thirty feet is of hewn limestone
or granite. Two modern carriages may
pass each other upon the summit. 1t has
parapet throughout its whole length.
with convenient staircases, butteresses and
garrisonhouses at every quarter of mile
and it runs, not by cutting down hills and
raising valleys, but over the uneven crests
of the mountains and down throug their
gorges, distance of thousand miles.
Admiral Rodgers and I calculate that it
would cost more now to build the Great
Wall of China through its extent of one
thousand miles than it has cost to build
the 6fty-ivo thousand miles of railroad in
the United States"

it would be tempting God. and provoking

INDIA RUBBER. The belt of land q.
round the globe FIVE hundred miles south
Of the equator abounds in trees producing
the gun of India rubber. They can be
tapped for twenty successive seasons, with.
out injury and the trees stand SO close
that one man can gather the sap of eight

three table-spoonfuls daily. Forty-three
thousand of these trees have been counted
in tract of country thirty miles long and
eight wide. There are 10 America and
Europe more than one hundred and fifty
manufactures OF India rubber articles, en-
ploying some 500 operatives each, and
consuming more than ten million pounds
of the gun per year, and the business is
considered to be still in its infancy. But
to whatever extent it may increase, there
will still be plenty of material to supply
the demand.

plan. His horse had been taught to sit
down like a dog whenever he was touched
by the spurs. Seeing a wild turkey, the
Yankee made bis horse perform his trick
and asserted that he was pointing game,
as was bis custom. The Kentuckian rode
in the direction indicated by the horses
nose. and up rose turkey. That settled
the matter; the trade was made. and sad
dies and horses were changed. After a
time they came to deep and rapid stream.

reached the middle of the stream he was

him up to more vigorous action. Down
sat the old horse on his launches. 'Look

submerged Kentuckian to the Yankee on
the other side of the stream, ''What does
