The Oasis Of Penjdch.

Penjdeh is in the shape Of a triangle, formed
by the Murghab which waters the Merry oas is,
ana by It's ad1uent, the kuShk. To the southland
southwest the frontier OF Penjdeh-a district
traversed by the nomad tribe of the Sarik Tur-
comans-is easily confounded with the hills of
the once houriShing territory Of Badghis. Ac.
cording to the investigations of European trav-
elers, we should understand by this name the
region bounded on the north by the sands of
Merv, on the west by the Herr Rud, on the east
by the Murghab, and on the south by the chain
OF the Paropamisus. The most fertile portion
OF BaSds at the present time is the eastern part,
between the Murghab and the Kushk. The
east of PenJdeh. while on the south they touch
Inc well-cuitivated region once belonging to the
UsoeEs, put now to Afghanistan, and in which
are Hhe towns Maimena, Aripul, Shibergan,
Andkhof and Akcha.
The oasis Of Penjdeh, fully capable of careful
cultivation on the one condition that good
as II were, sort of turning point between the
deserts of the north and the fertile regions of
the south, which await colonization. History
proves the hourishing state of the ancient
Badghis, which is still testified to by immense
ruins; With regard to the oasis itself Penjdeh
is still peopIed by about S, 900 Sariks. who oc-
cupy themselves chiefly in raising fiocks. Their
encampments skirt the banks of the Murshab
from the site marked by the ruins of old Penj-
west to east is about twenty miles, the greatest
length from northwest to SoutheaSt-that is
from Ak Tapa to Meruchak-is about twenty
seven miles. The area Is rather more than 800
square miles.
The Penjdeh Sarfks are rich. They live in
kloltkas or felt tents. Some among them pos
SeSs as many as from 500 to . 900 sheep and
between seventy and eighty carnels. They raise
there, but in small quantities, crops OF rice,
wheat, sorghum, &c. They weave carpets which
rival those Of Persia, and fine cloths of camel
hair for khilats and women's wells, famous
throughout the whole OF the East, but which
are exceedingly dear. The Sarlks of Penjdeh
nave commercial relations with Rnl har
and Herat above all other places. The irriga.

Of the oasis is Ak Tapa. Ruins are to be found
there OF u town and a citadel. There is a road
bank of the kushk, which is crossed by the half.
ruined bridge of Pul-i-Khisti or Dash Kepri.
AT the southeast extremity of the oasis are the
ruins Of Meruchak, and little to the north of
them begins the canal which issues from the
Murghab and irrigates the fields of the Sariks.

The SD0Ok I'm Mr.. Sweeney's Room,
From the San Francisco Alta California.
The leading topic Of conversation in a little
corner grocery on Natoma street yesterday
afternoon was the spook that had appeared in
the bedroom Of one of the Oldest residents of
that cosy street. Mr.. James Sweeney, the gen.
tleman who had seen the ghost, was not reti-
cent in his description of the apparition.

Mr.. Sweeney, "whin the ould woman woke me

sweeney; II was cowld sober whin wint to

This sally turned the laugh on Mr.. Darcy, who
offered no further Interruptions to Mr..

Beecher ON Evolmtiou.
THE BROOKLYN PREACHER HARMoNIzIN0 IT
WITH THE BIBLE.

An unusually large number of people attended
services ut Plymouth church Sunday morning,
and when Mr.. Deecher stepped to the front OF
the pulpit every seat in the great edifice was
occupied, and the aisles were filled with people
seated on camp-stools. The sermon was the
third In the series on evolution which he has
undertaken to deliver, and he opened his Bible
at the third chapter of the second book of Tim
othy, sixteenth verse, and read: Every Scrip
ture inspired of God is also profitable for teaci-
ing for reprool for correcting, for instruction in
righteousness, that the man of God may be
works"
Mr.. Beecher said: "The sacred Scriptures of
the Old and New Testament have had and still
Justly have relation to the highest moral con-
seriousness and to the profoundest religious ex-
dethrone their influence would be met by the
resistance of everything that is best in the best
man. The divine revelation interpreted by
Scriptures from fictitious claims made by men
and from clouds of misconceptions, and give to
US book as clear shining light, instead of an
phies.
ION the theory of the plenary inspiration of
the book the Bible is already set aside. do not
believe that any honest man, believing that
God inspired the thoughts and the feelings, be-
neves that be originated them in himself and
them out Of himself the
heves that, and that, therefore, believes that
every word and every text, and every state
man who Is consistent and honest can keep
himself from going headfirst into the gulf of in
ndeltty. In times of ignorance men were saved
by Inconsistencies. They are yet, very largely,
and any man that takes the old theory of the
absolute and plenary and verbal inspiration OF
the scriptures Is bound to intidelity, and If he
don't go over 1t is because he Is too stupid.
But even they take the ground that if we are

lieve that holy men of old spoke as they were
moved by the Holy Ghost. The Bible. as look
upon 1t, Is the history, the record in part, of
what the effect of Gods spirit moving on
human conscience has brought to pass along the
line of our natural history. 1t is the record of
mat universal and continuous action of the
divine mind on human consciousness that has
raised man from the lowest barbaric depths,
step by step, unfolding all the laws of social life
unfolding all graces, all affections all reasons,
