Sir r. Temples Palestine illustrated
AS the traveller walks on, he percelves that his
footsteps are not upon the original ground of Je-
rusalem, but upon mass OF super-imposed matter
which has been strewn over the whole site. His
tory enumerates seventeen captures OF the holy
city, eleven OF which were attended by sieges more
or less destructive. After many OF these events
the houses then standing were RACED TO the earth
These were in time succeeded by new houses
which In their turn were overthrow at the next
siege, and so on, each capture adding TO the accu-
mutation OF rubbish Thus the traveller learns
that a compact layer OF solid coating, from 30 to
so feet in thickness, has been by degrees spread
over the entire space. Even the valleys and ra-
vines between the several hills on which the city
was built have been 30 far niled up a5 TO have
partly lost their special character, as already
mentioned. The Tyrop9on brook is, perhaps, the
most particular instance. The traveller win have
heard OF this brook, or read OF 1t In Josephus as
landmark In the interior OF this CITY, but he will
not md tI. Nevertheless, IL was so deep that at
its exit from the city at MOr1ah the brfdge-span
was more than 100 feet above It's bed. It's course
has been traced by the discovery OF the arch, and
by deep excavations here and there which have

These gentlemen continue with pen and pencil to
personify the movement by the strange tradi-

female, divtnely tall, but by no means dvinely
fair The idea Is a weakness OF masculine vanity
which Is unable TO conceive q woman for whom
