On our return an instructive sight
awaited us. We saw how bread was
baked in an adjoining building. It was
done with rapidity which explains
how of old the supply was prepared
every day, and how If some guest ar
rived the housewife could make the
necessary provision without delay
(Gen. xviii. 6). Among the Fellaheen
the dough is not generally leavened.
A round hole in the ground, some one
and one-half feet deep, and the same
in diameter, forms the oven. In this
lie some live Goals, which, as in Hosea s
time Hosea vii. g., are not allowed to
go out at night, and, when baking has
to be done, are again revived. The
housewife first forms lump of dough
with her hand, then suddenly spreads
it out with an indescribably rapid action
of both hands-which can as little be
initiated as conjurOr's movement
into cake as thin as leaf, which
with moistened dab or rag she presses
into the hot oven, where it remains
sticking. In a minute it begins to
move, and is at once taken out to make
room for the following one.
The bread is now ready, not thicker
than parchment, not very relishing,
and somewhat sandy on the outside,
but really very enjoyable for anyone
who has a good appetite. Although of
the size of large plate, such a slice
contains but little nOurishment, and
Jeremiah could hardly have been saved
from starvation when only one such
piece of bread was given him every
day.-FrOm OrelFs " Through tho

Land.Owning in England.

AT present land is a luxury. To its
possession certain social advantages are
attached. A vast amount Of the lahd in
England belongs to no one in existence.
By the will of some one who is dead, it
is the property of some one who Is not
born. The life-tenant, whether he cares
for country life, whether he has the
means to keep up an establishment, and
whether he is Overburdened with settle
ments and mortgages, is compelled to
own large house with a large garden
and large pleasure grounds attached 10
it. As in many instances he IS indiffer-
ent to his heir, and In still more fire.
quent cases has to save 10 provide 3 pOr-
ton for his daughters and Younger sons.
he lays out nothing on the estate, and 4
unable, by the tenure under which he
occupies it, 10 give such long leases as
would induce occupants 90 turn Il TO the
best use. Habit, moreover, has often
led the owner TO impose numerous re-
strictive clauses in the leases that he does
grant, which cripple the energies of the
tenant, and keep him under the tutelage
OF exploded fallacies. An occapiar who
wishes to buy land has, therefore, 10
pay for 1t more than II Is worth, and,
beside this, he has TO expend q COM
paratiVely enormous sum among law
yers for acquiring it, The result OF ali
this is, that land has accumulated to a
scandalous extent In the hands Of some
families, that in others it is q curse 70

The Miserable Condition Of Russia.

A ST. PETERSBURG letter 10 the New
York San gives the following facts re-
garding the distress which is now prev.
alont in the Cars dominions: The
Government and the journals devoted TO
it--that is to say, almost our entire
press-are making strenuous efforts TO
conceal the truth in regard 10 the mis-
cry of the Russian people No wonder,
when black bread is sold in st. Peters,
burg at copecks, OF 3 IL cents, a
pound, and when the average wages of
workingmen in this town is 10 roubles,
or about Sll.25 a month. Deducting
the taxes an unmarried workingman's
surplus amounts to 45 cOpecks, or "a
cents, at most. He must have three
pounds of bread every day costing IS
c0pecks, or one-third OF his daily wages.
What, then, must be the condition of the
workmen whose wages are below the
average, and of those who are married
and have families 10 supportP Well, this
price of copecks a pound for bread
threatens to go still higher. Let 1t
reach the figure Of or copecks aud
the suffering viii become intolerable,
for the workingmen will be obliged TO
deprive themselves Of the comTnonest
necessities and neither commerce nor
industry, already almost ruined by tax
alton, can help the unfortunate men bv
raising their wages even up to the low
est figure permitting the sropc 60
