The great wall of China was measured
in many places by Mr., Unthank, IN
American engineer, lately engaged on a
survey Of a Chinese railway. His meas
urements give the height at eighteen
feet and width on top Of fifteen feet.
Every few hundred yards there is tow
er twenty -four feet square and from
twenty to twenty five feet high. The
foundation of the walls is of solid gran
lite. Mr.. Unthank brought brick from
the wall, which is supposed to have been
made two hundred years before the birth
of Christ. In building this immense
stone fence to keep out the Tartars the
builders never attempted to ayold noun
tans or clasnl, to save expense.
For thirteen hundred miles that wall
goes over plain and mountain. aud cv-
| cry foot of the foundation is in solid
granite and the rest of the structure
solid masonry. in some places the wall
is built smooth mp against the bank, or
canyons. or precipiccs where there is a
sheer descent Of 1000 feet. Small streams
are arehed over, but in the larger streams
the wall rms 10 the waters edge, and
a tower is bulb on each side. On the
1 top of the wall are breastworls or de-
fenses, facing in and ont, so the defend
ing forces can pass from one tower tt
another without being exposed to the
enemg from either side. To caleHlat.

Disclosures to Come.

A prominent stalwart, who holds a

friend of Senator Conkling, said
There is good deal more Of the thing

Don't you believe that Roscoe Conkling
has fired off all his ammunition yet.
know that Mr.. Conkling has regretted
ever since that he did not do as he was
all prepared to do at the time the electo-
raj count was before Congress, and de-
nounce that infamous steal and all con-
nected with it. And he is not the only
one who regrets it. Hundreds of Re-
publicans in this State, and was one of
them. were prepared to act with him."
''Well2"
"Mr. Conkling has now in his posses
sion such proof of the corruption of
Blaine and Garfield, and especially of
the former, that were he to make it pub
lie no decent man could longer consent
to stick to this administration or declare
himself its friend. Whether Mr.. Conk-
ling goes back to the Senate or not the
people will know just what set of
plunderers we now have at the head
of the government. They have set
out to crush Roscoe Conkling, man
against whose honesty no one has
ever dared to raise the least whisper, amp
he will soon show up to the people of this
country, in their true light, the men who
are doing it. Of course, it will destroy
the Republican party, but every decent
man in the party will be glad to see it
destroyed, rather than to be longer con.
tinued in power to rob the people. Wait
until you hear further from Roscoe Conk-
ling. He has not got done writing letters
yet Therell be more music in the air
when next he speaks than has been heard
in this country in a good many years.

The New York Water SuppIy,

The New York Herald sent a reporter
some years ago to take a survey of the
lakes and rivers of the Croton country,
from which New York derives its water
supply. His report was very alarming
and unpleasant. He found the Croton
lakes draining a section of country that
was thickly settled and full of slaughter
houses. The Herald published a map
of the region, showing the various
nuisances, the refuse and sewage Of
which poured into New Yorks water
supply reservoir. The HeraIds article
was quite alarming, but it was regarded
as newspaper sensation, and not as
much attention was paid to the subject
as it deserved. Harper's Weekly now
follows in the footsteps of the Herald,
and makes far more unfavorable show
ing. The latter paper, it seems, did not
mention half the impurities of the Croton
region. In addition to the slaughter
houses and the nuisances that defiled
the water, the Weekly's correspondent
found that both banks of the Crotch
were for nearly the entire length IN
healthy fever and ague swamps. The
stream, therefore, that pours into the
lake and furnishes New York with
drinking water was at least half of it
the drainage from a marsh. Perhaps
there is something besides dirty streets
to make New York city unhealthy.

Bishop Becker on the New Reyisi


In an interview with newspaper re-
porter Sunday, on the new revision of
the New Testament, Bishop Thomas A.
Becker, of the Catholic diocese of Viii.
mington, Del, who is preparing a
lengthy article for the July number of
the Catholic World. said:
"The revision of King James version
seems to approach in many points much
nearer the Vulgate than Protestants, as a
rule, will like. The leaving out of a
doxology which was formerly attached
to the Lords Prayer, For Thine is the
kingdom and the power and the glory
forever, Amen, will be found in accord
with the Catholic version, but may seem
strange to those who supposed it
part of the sacred volume. This and the
history of the adulterous woman left
in brackets as doubtful, and the lack of
the last chapter of st Mark, from the
18th verse onward, and the three wit
nesses, III. John, V. 7.S, may well be con-
sidered as the largest omissions. AS to
the critical value or the revlsl0nS, 1t will
just be found to be worth whatever of
scholarly effort the board possessed, but,
on the whole, we think Protestants will
say of it what is said of the new wine in
the Scripture, The old is better"
The Rev. DIR. j. 0. Peck, of the Han
son Place Methodist Episcopal Church,
Brooklyn, N. Y, and formerly pastor
of Mount Vernon NJ E. Church, Balti-
more, preached Sunday evening on the
Greatest Event of the Great Century

ment." The revision was the greatest
event of the century, he said, because it
demonstrated that there were no fatal
errors in the Testament as we have had
it. Eighty men, learned and pious, had
spent ten years each in studying the
book, and this aggregate of eight hun
dred years of labor in looking for defects
had proved that there was no false doc
trine in the Testament-no fatal error.
81 take these eight hundred yearsIof study
of the Bible" said the preacher, land
put them against Bob Ingersoll's shallow
treatment of 1t.

A Chapter Of Radical RIunders.

No party ever blundered more gross
ly than did the Republicans during the
late special session of the Senate, and it
is not at all to be wondered at that the
party at large was greatly relieved when,
on the retirement of the New York Sena-
tors, the Democrats took charge, dis
patched the business and effected a sine
die adjournment. From the commence
ment of the session to the climax of the
secession of Conkling and Platt, the Re-
publican policy was a succession of
blunders. First, the purchase of Malone
then, with his aid, the grab at the Senate
committees; then, as his reward the nomi-
nations of Gorham and Riddleberger then
at Conkling's instance, the maintenance
of a deadlock for nearly seven weeks I;
then, the grant of so much time to Conk-
ling for work against the Robertson
nomination and finally, the abandon
ment of everything, caucus nominations,
caucus decisions as to the ad-lock, eau
Gus assertions of the Importance of ma
jority rule, caucus outgivings as to the
new South, etc., etc. The party seems
to lack competent leaders, or rather, its
most competent managers are so en-
crossed in their battles with each other
and in defending their individual rascal
tiles, that the welfare of the party, as
well as that of the country, is entirely
forgotten.

The policy adopted by the Democrats
in the New York Legislature is to insist
that the circumstances under which the
two Senatorial vacancies occurred de-
mand that a new Legislature be elected
upon the distinct issue of the manner of
men to be sent to Washington. 1t is a
strong position, but arguments as to
right and wrong never influence Repub-
lican legislators, and it may therefore be
difficult to secure an adjournment of the
Legislature before the election of Sena-
tors. At first, the ''half- breeds" favored
such adjournment, and with Demo
cratic aid could accomplish it, but they
are now intending to nominate candi-
dates in the expectation of a dead lock,
with eventually some such compromise
as occurred in the Pennsylvania Senate
rial contest The Democrats will, there
fore, endeavor to make the deadlock so
lengthy and obstinate as to prevent any
compromise, and thus, in the end, Sc
cure an adjournment. There is very
reasonable belief that the next Legisla-
ture will be Democratic.
