The Wall of China is a greater wonder
than the Pyramids of Egypt, and must
have been a heavy drain on the wealth
and labor Of the empire when it was
built. Mr. Seward has some interesting
comments on it
The Chinese have been fer at least
two or three thousand years wal max
ing people Ii would bankrupt New
York or Paris to build the walls of the
city of Pekin TIE 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 on
the summit. 1t has 4 parapet through
outa its whole length, with convenient
starcases, butlresses, and garrison hou
ses at every quarter of mile, aud it
runs, not by cutting down hills and rails
ing valleys, but over the uneven crests
of the mountains, aud down through
their gorges, distance Of a thousand
miles. Admiral Rodgers aud | calculat-
ed that il would cost more now to build
the great wall of China. through It's ex-
tent of Que thousand miles. than it has
cost to build the forty Eve thousand
miles Of railroad IN the United States.
What commentary 1t is upon the ephe
neral range of the human intellect, TO
see this great utilitarian enterprise, so
necessary aud effective two thousand
years ago. now not merely useless, but
an eneumbrance and an obstruction.

The eipherers have been at work at

the turn of mind Of the reader.
The total outlay for last years stock

ployment, where they could earn from

that the nation would be from 200 to 100
