The Temple at Jerusalem.

1t is probably no exaggeration to say
that more has been written regarding
the temple of Jerusalem than in respect
to any other building in the known
world, and, unfortunately, it may be add
ed, more that is wild and utterly unten-
able. This last popularity arises from
several causes. First, because all the
earlier restorers were entirely ignorant
of the ground on which the temple
stood, and Of the local circumstances
that governed its construction it was
not, indeed, till the spot was surveyed
by the late Mr.. Catherwood in 1888, and
his plan published on sufficient scale
in 1862, that restorers had such a map
of the ground as would enable them to
adjust their measurements to the locality
with anything like certainty. Though
that plan was wonderfully perfect con.
sidering the circumstances under which
it was made, it has since been superced-
ed by that made under the direction of
Capt. (now Major) Wilson, r. E., in
1864-5, which leaves nothing to be de-
sired in this respect. 1t can be depend
ed upon almost to inches, and has been
engraved on scale sufficiently large for
all Typographical, if not quite for archi-
tectural, purposes. A second cause of
the wildness of the restorations hitherto
attempted is that the temple at Jerusa-
lem was quite unique, Not only had
the Jews only this one temple, but, so
far as we know, it was entirely of their
own invention and utterly unlike the
temples of the Egyptians or Greeks. 1t
may have had afinities with those of the
Babylonians or Assyrians; but, notwith-
standing all that has been done of late
years, we know SO very little of what the
temples of Mesopotamia were, that these
hardly help us even at this day, and the
assumption that this might be so was of
no use whatever to earlier restorers.
Having thus no analogiesto guide them,
and as it is literally and absolutely true
that not one stone remains on another
of the temple, properly SO called, it is
not to be wonderedat that early restor-
ers failed to realize tho truth and in
dulged in fancies which we're utterly un-
tenable. In nine cases out of ten their
object was to produce building which
would be worthy Solomon in all his
glory rather than reproduction of the
very moderate building described in the
Bible.-Conten1porGry Review.

Specific Gravity.

When Archimedes was asked if he
could find out whether the jewellers
had, in making the crown, kept back
some of the gold, and supplied its
weight with some other metal, the phil.
osopher was put to thinking and expert
menting; and one day he exclaimed,
with excited energy "Eureka Eure-
ka J" WI have found it have found
tlO
What had he found He had dis
covered that any solid body, put into a
vessel of water, displaces its own bulk
of water; and therefore Q, if the sides of
the vessel are high enough to prevent it
running over, the water will rise to q
certain height. He now got one ball of
gold and another of silver, each weigh
ing exactly the same as the crown. OF
course the balls we're not the same size,
because silver is lighter than gold, and
SO it takes more of it to make the same
weight. He first put the gold into q
basin of water, and marked on the side
of the vessel the height to which the
water rose. Next, taking out the gold,
he put in the silver ball, which, though
it weighed the same, yet, being larger,
made the water rise higher; and this
height he also marked. Lastly, he took
out the silver ball and put in the crown.
Now, II the crown had been pure gold,
the water would have risen only up to
the mark of the gold ball; but it rose
higher, and stood between the gold and
silver mark, showing that silver had
been mixed with it, making it more
bulky. This was the first attempt to
measure the specific gravity of different
substances.

Would jump on the Car.

He stood on the corner, waiting for
car. He was dressed up to kill, and he
knew it. His hat shone like the head
light of locomotive. He had an UNI
brella in one hand and sachel and q
bouquet carefully wrapped in tissue
paper in the other. The car came along.
He did not hail it. He did not want it
to stop. He could get on it without put
ting the driver to that much trouble. Ho
had seen others do it, and knew Just how
itshould be done. The front platform was
crowded, but that made no difference to
him. He would show the passengers
standing upon it how to do the thing
gracefully. He stepped to the track,
took his umbrella, sachel, and bouquet
in one hand, and, as the car passed
him, grasped the brace on the front plat
form with the other. The car was going
at good rate of speed. His feet flew
into the air, and as he assumed the per-
pendicular he managed to get one of
them on the step. Then he shut his hat
up like an accordion against the stomach
of fat gentleman who was at that mo-
ment drawing in mouthful of smoke
from regalia, and who was, in conse-
quence, too full of indignation-and
smoke-for utterance. Then the
killer laid his sachel, bouquet, and
umbrella down upon the platform very
suddenly, and apparently without any
intention to do o on his part and then
he laiI Limstl If down upon them. This
was also done in an irresistible way.
At this moment the driver put the
brakes on very suddenly, and he rolled
over on his back. The man who was
behind him stepped on his stomach and
leaned over the dashboard-gazing in
tently at tho track, as though he saw
something there to attract his attention.
Then the passengers righted themselves,
and our hero gathered himself up and
went inside the car, amid suggestions
about "learning how to get on car, "
etc. But he only smiled sarcastically.
He knew what he was about. The next
time they saw passenger attempt to get
on Car he thought they would make
room for him. And the passengers, on
their part, made up their minds that the
next time he attempted the feat, they
would.
