Mr.. T.. HARPER JEFFEIE>. who has
accepted the sucked orange OF the Re-
publican nomination for city controller
in Philadelphia, is no doubt very re-
putable gentleman, but the fact that he
is constrained to Oapologize to the machine
managers in the same breath that he de-
clares his purpose to administer the
Office according to law in the even t OF
his election, is 4 striking commentary
upon the Republican men and methods
of the ring-ridden Quaker City.

porter, as printed in our te!egraphic ad-
vices yesterday, Mr.. Bell. of the prosecu.

as lie had other witnesses to examine who
were net present. He expected, lie said,
witness from Lynn. Massachusetts. who
had not yet arrived, and that Mr.. P ayne,
his other expert witness, was lying i'll and
unable to attend. This was objected to
by Mr.. Brooke, and General Pryor (also
for defense) said he thought it was due to
his side to allow him to produce the proof
of the genuineness of the letter. Mr..
Stoughton shook his head, and General
Pryor continuing said: "Ah! well knew
my friend would shake his head. It is not
the purpose of prosecution to allow US to
proceed with our evidence SO that it will

irons toppled over and fell upon the head
of Miss H., inflicting terrible wound.
which bled profusely until the arrival of
DR.. J. B. Kohler, who attended her iniu-

they must wait for death to unseal their
vision) the bridge, thin as hair, and sharp
as a sword, between earth and Paradise Be-
meath it yawns the abyss of Gehenna, and the
faithless will miss their footing and tumble
headlong into its depths, while the true be-
lever crosses the bridge easily and swiftly.
Passing still along the wall, we came to the
garden gate. Within are most beautiful carv-
ings, and some fine pillars, said to have been
brought from GAIA by the Queen Of Sheba, as
a present L. Solomon. 1t was quite the after
noon before we reached the Church of the
Holy Sepulchre; which occupies the site of
the church built by Constantine ever our
Lords tomb. Just inside the door is a slab
on which it is supposed the body of Christ
was laid in order to be Amounted; and it is
worn quite into holes by the kisses of devout
pilgrims. 1t is quite touching to see the faith
these poor creatures place in every possible
and impossible rite. Many of the peasants of
the south of Russia save up their money for
half lifetime in order to make this journey;
which they perform in the most economical
way possible. They travel as deck passen-
gers on board ship, in all weathers, and walk
when they are on land. When, at last, Jeru-
salem is reached, they take up their abode in
the Russian hospice, and there the wretched
priests never let them go till they have strip
ped them of their uttermost farthing, so that
they literally have to beg their way back,
and often starve on the roadside.-Corr. Phila-

A Curious TRADITION Of Jerusalem.

The story says that in the days Of Omar,
one of the faithful pilgrims went to well to
draw water. His bucket fell to the bottom,
and he went down 10 get it. To his great
surprise, door opened before him, and he
found himself in beautiful fragrant gardens,
in which he walked for sumo time with great
satisfaction. Before leaving this delightful
place he plucked leaf from one of the many
trees, stuck it behind his ear, and so assembled
10 the upper earth without difficulty; but
there is no record Of whether he brought his
bucket up or not Of course, the story spread
until at last it reached the ears of Omar, but
only as an impudent invention, for no doors
could be found by any investigating travellers
Omar, however, treated the rumor with re-
spect, and said there was 4 prophecy that one
of the faithful should enter Paradise alive
Everything depended on whether the leaf
retained IFS veFdgre; and so could maintain its
claims to have grown upon tree of Paradise.
This test was triumphantiy passed, for the
leaf was green as ever, and SO this story has
lived to this day, and it is always told on the
brink of the "WelI Of the Leaf" The Mo-
hammedans seem fond OF tests. If the true
believer can pass between two columns, out
side of the Mosque Ell Aksa, standing very
close together, he leaves all his Sins behind
him. Now, the thinnest of our party could
only Just manage to squeeze through, and fat
Mussulsmans must assuredly find it difficult.
a still more difficult test is at another place, q
little beyond the same mosque, where Solo-
nous throne once stood. Here hangs-visi-
bic only to the eyes Of the faithful-(and even
