THE CHINESE WALL.-Mr. Unthank,
an American engineer, has been engaged
lately making survey for Chinese rail-
way, during which he took measurements
in many places of the great wall of China.
He gives the height at Is feet, and the
width on top Is. Every few hundred
yards there is a tower "a feet square and
from 20 to 45 feet high. The foundation
of this immense wall is solid granite. The
wall goes for 1000 miles over mountains
chasms, and valleys. 1t was built to keep
out the Tartars. Mr. Unthank brought
back with him brick from this wall, which
is supposed to have been made 200 years
before Christ. In some places this wall is
built smooth up against the canyons or pre-
cipices, where there is sheer descent of
one thousand feet. Small streams are
arched over, but in the larger streams the
wall is built to the waters edge and tower
is built on each side. TO calculate the time
Of building or cost Of this wall is beyond
human skill On the top Of tho wall arc
breastworks or dofcnces, facing in and out
so that the defending force can pass from one
tower to the other without being exposed
to any enemy from either side. So far as
the magnitude Of the wall is concerned, it
surpasses everything in ancient or modern
times, of which there is any trace 1t is
said that the Pyramids Of Egypt are moth
ing conlpard to it.

feet Of worms in the kidneys or in the loins
worms are very rarely found in the kidneys,
but more frequently infest the muscles and
fatty tissues Of the loins. In the majority
of cases, however, the paralysis is caused
by disease of the covering membrane of
the spinal masrow, and consequent cffusion
which intcrferes with the opetption of the
nerves Of the locomotive and digestive ap-
paratus. The remedy is a counter irritant,
such as turpontine or mustard .applied to
the loins, and a duretic which relieves the
pressure of the effused scrum One ounce
Of turpcntinc may be given in two ounces
Of linseed oil every second day, Or one dram
of saltpcter may be given every day. The
turpcntne will be useful in case worms
should be the cause of the trouble

ada We have isssfFssd something from the

famous for their rich, wholesome stews.-
Take joint of any kind of fresh meat,
some like beef, others like veal, like NUT
ton, because my father kept long wool or
mutton sheep. In the city you can get
such joint for dime, and in tho country
1t ought not to cost more. In all cases put
the meat in cold water, add enough water
to cover it, and boil until it is tender, for
beef aud mutton say two hours, for veal
say one hour. Add salt and pepper
About half an hour before serving, put in
six potatoes, pared and quartcred, and let
them boil with the meat. In tho meantime
prepare the dumplings by taking one quart
OF flour, teaspoonful of butter, and two
teaspoonfuls of sifted baking powder, wet
with milk enough to make stiff batter, so
-i@ will drop from-u-spuon; ten mfnItesS be-
fore serving drop the batter into tho stew,
spoonful at time, until all is in, aud
then cover tightly and boil ten minutes.-
If the meat is not sufficiently fat, add but

enough without butter. The batter thick

Hero you have meat and the juice of tho

good for brain, muscle and bone. Enough
for large family does not cost twenty-five
cents; all like it and we at hcme have this

tains can abiding conviction that we shall
never again contemplate a retrospect with so
much shade in it, as that upon which we are
looking back to-day. We see every reason
for anticipating a gradual and positive recoy-
cry Dy trade of its ancient prestige and vitali-
ty. The sudden return of an era of large
profits is neither to be expected nor desired.
A steady and healthy traffic, moderately re-
munerative and reasonably safe, will be more
satisfactory than spasmodic turn of affairs,
because it will last longer, and be quite as
productive of gain in the long run. We hope
the time is as hand when the buyers shall
seek the sellers, and that our wares, in all
the stages Of their manufacture, will be sold
to customers who come after them because
they wan: them, and not be made the sport
of an itinerant and haphazard commerce.
Such methods of efecting sales are prejudi.
cial alike to producers and consumers, and
Objectionable from every point of view. They
will undoubtedly be corrected just as soon as
demand and supply get in even pace with
each other, and that will be likely to happen
in respect of the commodities in which we
deal as soon as the cost of production is re-
duced to the proper level. As soon as the
stocks are disposed of, and bankrupt effects
swept out of the markets, competition will
be less keen than it has been, and GOODS
albeit plentiful enough for all practical pur-
poses. will not be so excessively abundant as
to tempt their owners to make sacrifices to
get rid of them"

The Election.

rhe result yesterday gives ground to Re.
publicans for thorough satisfaction in some
of its aspects and profound regret in others.
In the first place, to count our mercies, we
have elected Thomas B. Reed to Congress
from this district by an increased plurality,
and have stamped with the seal of peoples
reprobation the unscrupulous and tricky at
tempt to obtain his seat by devious ways.
Reeds election is not only a good thing in
ITSELF but it illustrates the advant-
age of straightforward adherence
to principles in political affairs and
shows the confidence which people feel
in man who knows what he thinks and
SAYS what he means. As to the rest the Re-
publicans of Maine are like spoiled children
they have been so used to indulgence
in absolute and sweeping victory that
they are likely 10 be unduly chagrined
and disappointed by temporary and par
tial defeat. We have elected Reed,
Frye, Lindsey and possibly Hale to Congress,
and yet we are greatly disappointed by the
loss of the fourth and perhaps the fifth
districts. 1t is grievous thing indeed to
have lost Representative in the fourth
district, but the defeat of Hale, if he be
defeated, is national calamity. His loss as
member of the lower House will be keenly
deplored throughout the length and breadth
of the land. 1t gives an additional pang that
he should be beaten by so utterly worthless
and unsuitable person as Murch, a man
whose ignorance and improvidence were his
leading recommendations, communist,
trade union leader, man indoctrinated with
all the dangerous theories which threaten
the fabric of society.
As to the state ticket it is shameful that
Maine fails to give majority of all her votes
for the noble Connor, man who honors the
state which has honored him, and who is the
embodiment of everything fine and manly.
But SO it is and we must trust to the chance
OF holding. the legislature for his election.
This is as yet matter of doubt and uncer-
tainty. The Senate We probably have and
the House we hope for, but must wait for
more complete returns for definite knowl-
edge. About one thing we can heartily con-
gratulate ourselves and that is the gallant
fight we have made for honest money and
the unity and good organization of our party
on the subject. The Greenback craze has
utterly wrecked and demoralized the
Democrats, while it leaves US COM
pact and earnest body, proud, even
in partial defeat, of our position and of
all We have done and said throughout
the campaign. For us defeat in good cause
is honorable, but for the Democrats what
shall we say. They are broken and
defeated, they have deserted their an
cient faith without espousing a new one,
they are party without principles,
aims or conference. Whether in defeat or
victory we say what we mean and know we
are right. Soon or late We must attain COM
plete victory, for right, honesty and decency
is sure to prevail, and so we go hopefully
about fighting the good fight again without
the possibility of wavering or equivocation,
in full confidence of future success.

HITHERTO, among civilized nations, Rus
sia has stood alone in the use of the calen-
dar of Julius Caesar. This is called "the
Old Style," while the Gregorian calendar,
instituted by Pope Gregory Kill, on October
8, 1882, is known as the New Style" The
adoption of the latter is to be discussed at an
impending congress of sarants at st. Peters
burg. The Gregorian calendar was speedily
adopted, in most Catholic countries, soon
after its author had issued bis brief so direct
ing. In the Protestant States of Germany,
It had been only partially adopted in 100,
and not wholly until 1774. In England, the
change from the Julian to the Gregorian
reckoning was made by act of Parliament in
1853, by which it was ordered that the legal
year should begin, not as previously, on the
25th of March, but on the first of January,
and that, after the third Of September, 1852,
the next day should be held as the 14th, thus
dropping out the eleven days which, under
the Julian calendar, slightly over-estimated
the years. length, up to 1852, had made
an error of that number of days in nearly
eighteen centuries. At present what is the
twelfth of the month in other coun tries, is
only the first In Russia.
