TuE GREAT CHINA Wall.

T.. great wal oi '.IuA va. meas
urai lu many places Pos Er Uutbsrs
an American ,rgr.rrr- lately On
gagged on survey tor Chinese ~sv.
HIS msa sursmcu;- gave the height a.
Is feet aud a width of Is feet
or top. Every I'v hundred wards
there is a tower 1f % feet square,
snd from 20 t. s. feet high. Th-
foundation of the wall - Of solid
granite. Mr. Uuthsnk brought ~i,h
him a brick from the wall, which 10
supposed 10 have been made 2uO
wears before the time Of Christ. In
building this immense stone fence
to keep ont the Tsrtars, the builders
never attempted to avoid mountains
or chasms to save expense. For
1900 miles the walls goes over plain
and mountain, and every foot OF the
foundation is solid granite, and the
rest of the structure solid masonry,
In some places the wall 10 built
smooth up against the bank, or can.
ons, or precipioes, where there is a
sheer descent of 1000 feet. Small
streams are arched over, but in the
larger streams the wall runs to the
waters edge, and tower is built on
each side. On the top of the wall
there are breastworks or defens es,
facing in and out, so the defending
force can pass from one tower to
the other without being exposed to
any enemy from either side. To
calculate the time of building or cost
Of this wall is beyond human skill,
So far as the magnitude of the work
lis concerned, it surpasses anything in
ancient or modern times Of which
there is any trace. The pyramids Of
Egypt are nothing compared to it.

FIRE AT SEA.

The San Francisco "Bulletin," o.
late date, says: The British ship
Ada Iredale, which took fire in mid.
ocsan, on voyage from the Clyde tc
to this port and was abandoned, Oo.
tober Is, 1876, drifted close into Tab
|iti, and was towed into that port
June 9, 1877. 1t appears that the
burning ship, at the mercy of the cur
rents and winds, floated for nine
months. She was towed into Tahiti,
by a French man of-w and inspect
ed by the English Consul and Capt.
Turpie. The whole of the wood.
work, indeed everything combustible
has been consumed, leaving only the
ironwork of what was once q remark
ably strong and substantial vessel.
The Captain says: There still re-
main, should suppose, about 100
tons Of ashes and debris, which are
still burning. No water is visible in
the hold, and the iron plates of the
ship outwardly appear little dam
aged. The bottom is clean-kspt so,
/ imagine, by the intense heat. The
fgurehead is uninjured. From the
position where she was abandoned
to this place is about 1850 miles.
The ship has therefore drifted that
distance between Oct. Is, 1876, and
June 8, 1877. The course made by
the burning wreck L suppose to be
about w. S. W., south Of Paumota
group; then meeting with the south
east winds with prevail during April,
May, and June, she was driven to the
northwest until taken in tow by the
French man-of-war. 1t is most re-
markable thing that burning ship
should have drifted over eight months
in the Pacific without being reported
and that she should at last be brought
into the port which her captain and
crew had reached seveR months pre-
viously." What is equal y as strange
as the floating of the burning ship,
that she should have drifted to the
port at which her captain and crew
had taken refuge nine months ago.

Be Kind to the Aged.

Do the young people over think that
they will be old that they will soon feel
that the grasshopper is burden and
fear il in the way9 Only few short
years ago, that aged man and feeble
woman we're young, strong and full Of
life; their loving hearts were gushing
with tenderness and care for the little

Do not jostle that aged couple out Of
your pathway, but rather liit them with
tender care over the rough declining
road. You may have forgotten how
they kept your tender feet from STUN
bling, and with what care they watched
your advancing steps. But they have
not forgotten. and the time will come
when you will be reminded OF II by the
love you have foryour little ones. Will
they hand you the same bitter cup tG

father and stricken mothr7 Verify,

long sufferings with your fretfulnsss, and
then let the blush OF shame dye your
brow. that you should be impatient or
unkind to her, now that she Is old. Old
folks are such trial! Yes they know
il, and they feel it---and so will you be
just such trial to your children in the
days that will surely come; aye, and You

Mr. Henry Ward Beecher has been

early life in Ohio. One Of his stories
is this: "The other day came through

first trip out West We stopped late at
night and spent Sunday there. There
we're two coach loads of us, and the lit

How Prairie Dogs Get Water.

1t has always been the subject OF curl.

prairie dogs living on tho prairie for
away from any river or stream, obtain
their water. L. Leecl. formerly Of Msr-

own wells. each village having one with
a conceale opening. II matters moi
how far down the water may be. the
dogs will keep digging until they reach it.
He knows Of one such wells two hun.
dred feet deep, and having circular
staircase leading down to the water.
Every time dog wants to drink he dc.

the distance, 10 no mean task. In dig
