ruins. Efforts were at once made by those
who were fortunate enough to escape injury
to relieve the others, several of whom were

The DOxOlOgy.

One of the most important changes
made by the revised New Testament is
the omission of what is called the doxol-
ogy from the Lords prayer in Matthew's
Gospel for Thine is the kingdom
and the power and the glory,
forever. Amen" These words are
an Interpolation found on the
margin of the text in some of the early
manuscripts, and not found at all in the
oldest ones. Its origin can be traced
back to remote Aryan sources, and it
can be found almost literally in one of
the hymns of Zend Avesta, to which
some of the students of Iranic literature
give an antiquity as great as 1000 years
before Christ, and which is indisputably
older than the time of Cyrus and the
cuneiform inscriptions (about $50 Boz,
In this hymn, addressed to Ahura- May
da, the Creator and Good Principle, oc-
ours the following passage: "To Him
belongs the kingdom, the might and
the power" Evidently this doxolo-
gy or ascription is one of the earliest ex-
prssions of worship adopted by the
Aryan mind. Its omission from the
Lords Prayer will not be generally well
coined, for it unquestionably forms an
impressive and beautiful climax but as
there is now no reason for supposing it
was in the original Gospel the Christian
world must give it up. Biblical schol-
ars are all agreed that no claim for in
SEPARATION can be made for it. -NeaO York

We hitched couple of farm horses to
q spring wagon, filled it with provisions,
tents and blankets, and struck out for
the mountains, travelling from fifteen to
twenty miles per day. The first place
we reached of Importance was the Big
Trees of Calaveras county. l must ad-
nit that they staggered my imagination,
and exceeded anything in the vegetable
growth had ever seen. In the stump
of one of these trees ballroom thirty
three feet across is built, and it requires
q ladder of eighteen steps to ascend to
the top of the log, on which was built a
ten-pin alley. 1t has been burnt up,
but the body OF the old charred mon
arch of the forest still remains. Think
of it hollow log through which one
can ride on horseback 100 feet and come
out through knot-hole! There are
some ninety of these trees, measuring
from fifty to 100 feet in circumference,
and reaching up to the skies-from 800
to $50 feet. They are the rem
nant of past flora that one
time was more common, but are
now confined to some dozen groves
scattered from here to Kings river
grand old trees, that have withstood the
storms of thousands of winters, and were
sapling wLens Moses was little boy,
found in the bulrushes of the Nile.
What history could they tell What
q monument of growth Enough to
shame the vanity Of proud Cheops, the
builder of the Pyramids. They have
grown and lifted their heads higher and
higher, while the proud Kings and en-
pires Of Egypt, Persia, Greece and Rome
have passed away. They lived and
fourished when Christ preached repen-
lance to the Jews, and were full-grown
trees when our Anglo-Saxon ancestors
ran wild in the woods and painted their
faces like the Indians. From the rings
that denote the annual growth of these
trees science has estimated some of them
to be four 1000 years old, while they
stand over the fallen bodies of much
older growth, covered over with earth
and large growing trees, as it is one of
the pbculiarities of this timber not to
decay. 1t appears to be species of
redwood.-Correspondent San Fran
