tied and left to decay, for Bey must
not live IN a palace in which a prede-
cessor has died. None of them has had
himself transported into the street on
death approaching, and there are more
than dozen palaces in Tunis to-day
which can not be used by the Beys. A
melancholy example of this absurd
custom is Mahomedia, once the mag
niticent residence of Achmet Bey, who
had it built thirty-fve years ago at
cost of 100000 francs. This palace
with its secondary buildings and villas
for Ministers and dignitaries, was stu
ated two miles ont of town; and when
Achmet Bey died the furniture was
moved, the floors, glazed tiles, doors
and windows was broken out and car
ried to another palace. The heavy
marble columns, statues, the curb of the
wells, &c, remained behind with the
walls, and he who passes those impos-
ing ruins to day might think thousands
OF years had passed over them. The
hand of the Arab destroys thus in our
day. in the midst of peace, as his an
cestors, the Vandals, did centuries ago
only in time of war. So much for ORR
entail culture!

How the Bey of THnis Lives.
The Spectator.

The palaces of the Bey are splendid
and incongruous; the Bardo, an hour
from the Capital, is q fine sample of
Oriental architecture and decoration,
spoiled by Partisan upholstery and vul-
gar European carpets. Dar-elBey, his
only town residence, is magnificent and
neglected; his real abode is 81 separate
building. walled. and standing IN a gar
den, near the Bardo. He goes to the
Bardo once a week, to sit In judgem ent
on his subjects, and receive the EN-
bassadors and consuls of the Great
Powers; and then there is a brief stir,
and the court presents stately picture
"It Is, however, only an external bril-
liancy, and it can not deceive the visi-
tor as to the misery reigning within the
Moorish Empire" Mahommed E5 Sa-
dock Pasha Bey is an amiable enough
Prince, by all accounts-fond of child
rem, but childless, and very simple in
his habits. He has only one wife, and
though he pays her formal visit of an
hours duration at her castle every day,
he rarely sees her, as the hour of his
visit is generally one appointed for de-
votion, and on his arrival he goes to a
small room in the palace to pray.
He is supposed to know nothing of
the management OF his possessions; be-
fore him all is splendor, behind his back
all is desolate ruin. Whichever of his
palaces he shall die In, will be disman.

A Subterranean Abyss Swallows Up
Child

The Zirknitz Sea In Carniola is re-
markable for the periodical disappear
ance of the water every summer,
subterannean passages serving as chan
nels of escape. A rapidly ripening
crop of grass and some quick
growing vegetat les are gathered dur
ing the autumn from the dried bed of
the lake by the neighboring peasants.
A letter from Lysbach reports a singu
lar accident of which the place was
the theater. A peasant woman and her
daughter were being conveyed in
cart across the bed of the lake, which
was still covered with water in some
places. Suddenly the cart and its oc
cupants were precipitated into the
chasm, through which the water was
being swallowed down in a great vor-
tex, and which had not been noticed
till too late. With great difficulty the
woman was rescued, but the child and
cart were sucked down into the abyss
below.

AN attempt is being made by Messrs.
Charles l.. Wright & Co., ship-brokers, to
establish an American steamship line with
a new kind ofyessel planned and patented
by Captain Sundborg, lately of the Swed-
lsh navy. The steamers will ply between
New York and the European ports, and
will be controlled entirely by American
capital. According 10 the plans as set
forth In the prospectus the new steamers
will have displacement of 11000 tons,
length of 450 feet. They are to have tour
decks, two of which will be for saloon
passengers. Each steamer is 10 be moved

Of another new comet. This is not the

DR.. Cruis, of Rio Janerio, who is probably
the disooverer of the South American
comet, announces that it can be seen with
the naked eye. The other is visible only
with the aid of telescope. Both comets
are late risers, neither being visible until
after midnight.

ASSERTIONS having been made that in
terest in foreign missions is declining,
the Christian Union undertakes to
show that sin this country, for the last
third of a century, the rate of increase
in contributions has been that of doub-
ling about once in ten years." and that
it cannot be said truthfully that of late
there has been any diminution Of re-
ceipts" No missionary society, how
ever, can fairly be very enthusiastic
over the prospect of Christianizing the
world by present methods, when even
the Christian Union reports that on a
recent tour of inquiry 100 families
were found in Sag Harbor, l.. l., who
had never seen a Bible. and San aged
couple at Blue Point, with their daugh-
ter, had never heard of Jesus Christ"

THRRE are two popular notions says
the New York Sun, that, though they
contradict one another, have adher-
ents throughout Chrlstendom. One is
that which is called natural death
takes place with the ebb of the tide
the other, that it occurs after midnight,
In what are called the small hours be-
fore dawn. The records show, as
might have been expected, that the
Black Rider, who respects neither age
nor worldly condition, IS Indifferent in
timing his visits. In New York last
week the greatest number of deaths
took place at IL o'clock in the day,
when there were seven; but there were
five deaths in each of the
hours of 3, 4, Z, and 10
o'clock in the morning and 3, 4, and 7,
o'clock in the evening. Four persons
died at five O'Clock, six o'clock, and at
nine o'clock in the morning and at one
o'clock and six O'Clock in the evening.
and three persons died at each of the
hours of l and 2 o'clock A. NJ. and S.
10. and IL O'Clock P. M. There hap.
pened to be no deaths at FIVE o'clock in
the evening. There were ten more
deaths before noon than after it.
More than half of those who died
were children under five, of summer
ailments. Hotels were the scenes OF
10 deaths institutions, 120; tene
ments, 400. Only one death on the
sixth floor of house is recorded
though they were 179 on second floors
The death rate is put at 29.71 in 1 900
but the board of health estimates the
population at 1.2s4, ,524, which is ac-
cording to popular belief, a quarter OF
q million less than the actual number
of people in the city.

The death of Baron Won Magnus, late
Prussian minister at Copenhagen, and
whose name two years ago formed the
general subject of conversation in dip
lomatic circles, in consequence of the
Sarah Bernhardt incident, has put an
end to career of nearly fifty years
service in the Prussian army and dip
lomatic service. At dinner given in
honor of Nine. Bernhardt, he proposed
a toast to 'La Belle France" to which
the actress replied in French, Thanks,
Baron; but to La France entiere,"
alluding to Alsace and Lorraine. Bar
on Won Magnus died in a lunatic asy-
lum; and at the time of the above
mentioned incident he was undoubted-
ly already suffering from insanity. The
origin of his illness dated from his stay
in Mexico, where he vainly tried to
save the life OF the Emperor Maximil-
ian; he was present at the execution,
and arranged for the surrender Of the
body of the monarch. The excitement
of the spectacle made too deep an inn
preston on his mind.

THE Duke of Sutherland has under
taken rather interesting agrarian
movement on his Scotch estate. He
has broken up the sheep farm of Kin
brace, which covers Al 600 acres, into
nine holdings, which are to be, or have
been, let on favorable conditions. Most
of the grazing area of the Scotch up
lands is in holdings of 10000 to 10000
acres, and, th herefore, available only for
heavy capitalists. The Duke began
improvements on this part of his prop
erty five years ago, when some 1900
acres were brought under cultivation,
and have been so far titled that they
now yield prodigious crops. In carry
ing out this new experiment the land
lord will supply houses and fences, and
the tenants will be eft free to use their
capital in the purchase and care of
their stock

THERE is good deal of illusion about
the rise of the Nile. It seems to be
thought that for few weeks the delta
and the valley of the Nile are lake,
and then that they are muddy
swamp. The water of the Nile flows
into canals; from thence it is pumped
every morning, as long as the rise lasts,
into small rills, which permeate the
fields, which are thus irrigated every
morning. The water evaporates every
day, leaving in the evening dry mud.
Thus, except in some low-lying dis
tricts, there never Is an expanse of
water or mud.

A Swallows Rest" of remarkable
size at Westerly, r. L., is attracting the
attention of bird lovers. 1t is situated
on the farm of James Babcock III the
northern part of the town of Westerly.
A fine grove of maple trees, growing
on swampy ground, is used by the
birds as their "rest." The birds are
the common white-breasted barn swal-
low; although some marten swallows
are occasionally seen among them.
Their number is what causes astonish-
ment. One careful observer lately
estimated that there were 5000, 900
swallows nightly in the grove.
