her sense of propriety in color had be-

suspected that it was partly through the

was sure that the popularity went out

An apparently unsurmountable difficulty
in the navigation of the mouth Of the Mis-
sissippi river has been the enormous quanti-
ties of mud and sand which have been car
ried down the river and deposited at its
mouth An idea of the extent of this de-
post may be gained from the fact that the
river empties into the Gulf of Mexico H.
OOO, 900 cubic ct of water per minute, each
cubic foot containing nearly two cubic
inches of mud and sand. This earthly mat
ter has, in the course of ages, formed
delta which extends 100 miles from the
main shore line of the gulf To remove the
bars already formed and to secure per-
fectly navigable channel at all times was a
question that puzzled engineers until the
winter of 1874 Capt. Eads appeared before
congress and offered to perform the above
task without remuneration until his under
taking was an accomplished fact After
considerable opposition on the part Of rival
engineers, who held his plans to be chimeri
cal, permission was granted him in March,
1875, and in June he commenced the con-
structiOn of "jetties' and improved the

A Day at Furness Abbey.
BY MARGARET J PRESTON.

We were staying last week-a delight
full family party of us-at Bowness, on
Lake Wlndermere, about twenty-five
miles from the spot where l now write,
Keswick, on Derwentwater. Bowness is
one of the quaintest towns I have seen in
England and has an air OF antiquity
which it's six or seven hundred years of
age will hardly warrant. It's steep streets
slope from the waters edge up to the
crest of the hill, on which the pretty
Crown Hotel stands, clustered over with
honey suckles and roses.
The villages in the Lake District have
a popularity of their own, and are unlike
any l elsewhere saw in England. They
are built Of the slaty stone that abounds
in this region, and as their streets are
tagged with the same, they would have
a melancholy grayness were it not for the
laughing brightness of the flowers, in
which every little cottage nestles roof.
deep. never imagined such riot Of
ivy as there is everywhere among these
beautiful Cumberland and Westmoreland
lakes. Every roadside cottage is covered
with it to its chimney pots; every wall
clothes itself with it as with mantle
the great boulders, which are marked
feature in the landscape here, are green
with it, Why it should grow with a ra-
pidity and luxuriance here unknown to
the South Of England, I am not able to
say.
AS Bowness is a very convenient centre
from which to make excursions to every
part of the lake region, must be allowed
to say few words more about it. 1t lies
along Lake Windermere, the largest and
most beautiful of all these exquisite sheets
of water that help to make the North OF
England one Of the most delicious spots,
for consummate beauty, in all the world.
Certainly the three kingdoms can show
nothing like it. The little cove at Bow
ness is at all times flashing with scores Of
pleasure boats, whose crimson cushions
and floating pennons give it a most bril-.

all over this magnificent ruin. The por.

We sat down on the capitals of some
of the ruined pillars, which serve as seats
IN the beautiful cloister grounds, and gave
ourselves up to delicious visions OF the
olden days. We could fancy that we
heard chanting in the chapter-house, and
it did not require much imagination, as
we sat with half closed eyes, to believe
that we caught sight, now and then, of
the floating robe of Cistercian monk.
One OF our party suggested that the null
tltude of rocks cawing above the ruins
were the old monks come back again,
only their white habits were changed to
black in token of their sorrow over the
changed order of things. The tinkle of
the distant sheep-bells, that came borne
to us on the soft wind, our day-dream
easily converted into the chime of the
Angelus. Even the hustle of distant
train seemed not greatly unlike the noise
the twelve hundred srmed men might
sometimes have made in the courtyard.
But the gay chatter of half a dozen
bright young girls, who had joined our
party, put to fight all too soon these Wis
ions of the past. We certainly could not
mistake them for sanity lady ADDRESSES,

Philotheos Bryennios.
From Harper's Weekly.

Philotheos Bryennios has immortalized
himself by one of the most important lit
erary discoveries OF the age-the earliest
Church manual, called Teaching of tie
TiVeJUe APOSTLES 1t was known to the
Greek fathers (Cl sment of Alexandria,
Eusebius, Athanasius, Nicephorus) under
this name, but had entirely disappeared,
and remained hidden in the library of
the Convent of the Most Holy Sepulchre,
in the Greek quarter OF Constantinople,
till December, 1888, when Bryennios
published it from the only manuscript
extant. The book created almost as
great a sensation in the theological world
OF Europe and America as the still more
important discovery of the Sinaitic man.
uscript of the Greek Testament by the
late Professor Tischendorf, in 1859, at
the foot of Mount Sinai, which has, be.
sides, all the charms of a heroic romance
with its three journeys through the will
derness, It's disappointments and failures,
its ultimate success, and its connection
with monastic life in the East and the
late unfortunate Gar Alexander II.
The Importance Of the Teochinq of the
TiOelUe APOSTLES naturally excited great
interest In the person of Bryennios. But
little has been known of him hitherto
till within few days the present writer
received from his own hand, in modern
Gre k, an photographed sketch, with
private letter. From this we shall
take the principal facts, which will in
terest the readers of the Weekly.
Philotheos Bryennios was born OF
Greek parents in a village near Constan-
tinople in the year 1888, and is conse-
quently now ffty-two years of age. He
was very poor, but very bright, and full
OF zeal for the acquisition of knowledge
By the kindness Of a Greek bishop he re.
ceived a liberal education in the Patri.
archal Seminary at Chalce, an island
near Constautinople, and was appointed
a professor. But to finish his studies he
attended the universities of Leipsic, Der.
lin, and Munich. This accounts for his
extraordinary familiarity with German
theology. In his books he freely quotes
Neander, Gieseler, Hilgenfeld, Hefele
and the writer's Of Herzog E'ncycloDYdja
He is more at home among the Protes
tant German divines than among the
Roman Catholic OF English writer's he
only refers to Bingha0's Antjqtities
and once to Lightfoot. He does not seem
to know the language. In 1875 he visit
ed Germany again, in an official capacity
as delegate to the Old Catholic Con
ference arranged by the aged DR.. Dol
linger in Munich for an adjustment o
the long controversy between the Greel
and Latin Churches concerning the dou
bic or single procession of the Holy
Spirit. There he became acquainted
with number Of English Churchmer
] who attended that Conference.
