TBE PERSECUTION OF JONES. have
no other authority for it than Jones him
self, and therefore cannot vouch for its
truthfulness. Jones told US taat he was
persesuted nearly to death some time ago
by a sewing machine agent. who wanted
him to make purchase. Not being able
to endure the persistence Of the man.
Jones says be bought q diving bell and
went out four hundred miles from land
and descended two miles into the ocean
to spend few days in peace. He had
hardly touched bottom when he saw the
sewing machine man coming down in the
divers armor. carrying with him q shut
tle-feed and sixty strong testimonials e
the merits Of his button-hole attachment.
Jones informs us that be suddenly ros,
to the surface and prepared TO sal hom'
but Just as the ships anchor was being
hauled over the side. It fell and upset ths
cooks caboose, scattering the live coal
into the powder magazine. This caused
a terrible explosion, and Mr.. Jones wa
blown four miles upward into the air
(This is Mr.. Jones statement, remember.
Just as he began coming down. he me
the sewing machine solicitor coming u
in balloon with bucketful Of sample
Of the locksti.ch. and model Of his pa
tent reversible hemEer. When Jone
fell he was picked NJ. and sailed straigt
for home. As the vessel drew near th
dock. Jones perceived the agent standin
on the wharf waiting for him with ''nois,

but Jones is responsibility Thereupe
J Jones hid himself iu the cabin, and il
s,ruc,ed the captain to say to the agen
tha. he, Jones, had died Of yellow few

chine man heard this. he seized COZ
of certificate from 4 elergyman's vii
and then blew out his brains with pi
sol, evidently determined to follow Jon
into the next world and sell him m

MOUNT SINAI.

Remarkably interesting article is Que We find
!. he New York Sun, on the question of wv as
T,aa Sinai ' olcano?'
h.,r promising that to this day the locality OF
il, noun, from which was delivered the divine
.l 70 man is still 10 doubt, the writer proceeds
=, the h,ory that it was really volcano, now
.r.,,ct. situated far to the eastward, near the
.,,g, .lrabian desert DR.. Bckc, the English
lu.raphcr and explorer of Ahyssinia, is the
.,.:.rr Of this idea, aud if it is correct it must
r.yt been the Gulf Of Aka ba which the l>rae-
H., crossed, and not the Gulf Of Sucz, which
has generally been supposed to be the Red Sea
y.ihe Bible DR.. Btke locates Mount Sinai in
zoe Of the volcanic wastes Of Arabia that have
D,ycr been traversed by Europeans, aud he fur
Their argues that, as volcano, 1t was the pillar
o. ire which guided the children Of Israel by
a.ht on their wanderings. Quotations from
Exodus in regard to Mount Slual, when they
.ay encamped before it, bear great similarity
10 The language used to describe volcanic action
in later ages. Pindar speaks Of Mount 1Etna
a, ''iy day burning stream OF smoke, but by
night a ruddy eddying flame. Plny the
Younger in his celebrated account of the first
Eruption of Mount Nesuvius, BY which his un-
Gle, the distinguished Roman Admiral was
niIlcd, describes the mass OF matter thrown
yu, from the crater by day as "a cloud
,i>ilg upward in appearance and shape re-
.,u;ing a tree, aud in the evening vast
.h,cts OF flame and large bodies of fire were
h,hcll rising from Mount >Eesuvius, the glare
and biilsiancy Of which wcre seen i'll bolder re-
lit a> night drew on apace.' Many more mod
era descriptions to the same purpose are quoted
IL DR.. Bcke An African, of the Somall coun-
,ry, Nho witnessed the first eruption OF u vol lea
10 IN the AhySsrian coast, In 1861, saw nine
r,yn cratyr>, OF which, he said, eighteen still
>u.oke IN the day time, and at night give light
I,y !. lamp" These rude words, says DIR.
n,kc. are meant to describe, and by every rea-
,,,.blc person would be understood as de-
,cfibur what in the fgurative language Of
SCRIPTURE is styled "a pillar of cloud by day
aaia pillar Of fire by night" 1t is asserted,
,lrn that Mount Sinai was a volcano in active
eruption when the children Of Israel began their
vaudrlncs that it was by the light Of the crup-
.on, principally, if not entirely, that they pass
ID through the Red Sea; and that the mighty
earthquake which accompanied the volcanic
oujvlst caused the rising of the waters where
:,y the pursuing host of Pharoh was overwhcIm
d. Dr. Bvkc is by no means sceptic 10 re-
i:n On the contrary. he is firm adherent
Of llc Christian faith. He believes, however,
III lie !,tllculties concerning the exodus should
tc definitely set at rest by just such scientific
;lre>'igations as that which he now proposes
10 make, aud no doubt many Christians will
a@lcr with him-Buh. Imertcan.
