THE Republicans look upon.

/. put him up for the presidency
in 1880. They do not think he

Il a forlorn hope.

BEN BUTLER thinks Hayes is
more popular with the leaders
of the Republican party than
with the honest rank and file of
the party, because some of the
leaders have got something, and
the rank and file have got moth
ing and have lost even what
they had. This is not encour-
: aging for the rank and file.

ROADS IN PALIiNTGNE.

A recent traveller in Palestine was as- tonished by the number and preservation of roads built in the Roman era They were laid out on all main routes, and were constructed so perfectly that in many sections they endure to day as if finished not long ago The country of Palestine WAS one of the most difficult sort to carry a system of roadways over, and yet it's obstacles were surmounted with the least possible expenditure of labor. Every route was curled on each side by lines of stones projecting from one 10 two feet above the surface of the soil: between these boun- daries the avenue was paved; streams were crossed by bridges, whose style re- mains preserved alone in those of Italy to the present hour-as, for example, those of Venice; valleys were trayersed by via duets; and causeways carried the liue up or down mountain sides, either by piers of masonry or ill channels sufficiently wide cut out of living rock Often zig gags and steps were resorted to in climbing steep ascents. Whenever the street passed over solid rock, the Wear of chariot wheels in the course of time made ruts, which re- main to-day as plain and deep as when the last car passed over.

In 1753 New Place, the former home of Shakespeare. near Stratfurd-on- Avon, be- came the property of the Rev. Francis Gastrell, who n 175G, ordered the mul- berry tree planted by Shakespeare cut down. Most of it was bought by watch- maker named Sharp, who, in 1709, in con. BenqueDce of hints of his selling articles purporting to come from the original tree which did not really come from it, made an affidavit before a magistrate that Mir. Gastrell ill 1756 ''cut down the said mul- berry tree and cleft it as frewood; when the greatest part of it was purchased by me, the said Thomas Sharp, who, out of a sincere veneration for the memory of its
 celebrated planter, employed one John Luchman to convey it to my own premises, where 1 have worked it into many toys and useful articles. And 1 do hereby de- clare and take my solemn oath upon the four Eyuneelsis, in the presence of AL mighty God that never lad workef sold, :, or substituted any other wood than vhat came from ant was part of the said tree."
