How They Travelled Long Ago.

In the reign Of the Emperor Theodosius
(who died A. D. 376. u magistrate of high
rank had to go on important business from
Antioch to Constantinople. He began his
journey one evening about sunset, and by
the time the sun went down the next day he
was in Cappadocia, l65 miles from Antioch.
On the sixth day, about noon, he was at his
journeys end. The whole distance Travelled
was 665 miles. Houses were erected on the
great highways at intervals Of about six
miles, and each was provided with forty
horses Those only who had an imperial
mandate might use these horses, but with
their help it was easy to travel a hundred
miles a day with comfort.
Supposing, now, great general stationed
at Newcastle had been obliged to repair to
Jerusalem, he would have found an excellent
road the whole way, except where it was in
terrupted by the English channel, the Alps
and the Adriatic. He would go thus: New.
castle, York, London, Sandwich, Boulogne,
Rheims, Lyons Milan, Rome, Brundusium,
Dyrrachium, and SO across the Adriatic to
Constantinople, thence to Ancyra, .Tarsus,
Antioch, Tyre and Jerusalem In all 4,OeO

Tho Ca1nels in Mongolia.

The first time met u camel train near Pc

eyes upon it. And although 1 have seen
thousands since then, | find them just as
amusing as ever. The two bumped or bac.
trian canlelso of northern China are much big
ger than those we know at home, and have
seen few sights SO picturesque as string of
them approaching over these brown plains
A dozen are fastened together by cord at
tacSing the nose of one to the tail of the
other; bell, couple Of feet long, is hung
round the neck of the last to warn the driver
in front by its ceasing it the line breaks any
where. A medley of bales and boxes and
clothing is slung on their backs; ruddy faced
Mongols dressed in scarlet and yellow, with
ornaments of gold and silver in profusion, sit
up aloft and smile at you as you pass. The
great shaggy beasts move softly along, in
geniously out of step, lifting their sponge like
feet and dropping them again with perfect
and unvarying deliberation, the whole train
moving with the silence of dream, broken
only by the jangjang of the solitary bell
Their big brown eyes looked you straight
In the face, and there is something pathetic
and reproachful in their glance. ':You are
laughing at me" they seem to say, ''and
know am an extraordinary looking crea-
ture. But then, if you only knew it, SO are
you, and it would be kinder to think of my
services than to laugh at my shape" All
day long one street of Peking is filed with
these picturesque professions, gaunt, wretched
creatures, with worn out coats and covered
with coal dust, carrying sacks of coal from
the western hills into Peking; and the far
finer and better kept animals bearing tea
away up into the north. During all my stay
in Peking | longed for the moment when
too should ride away at dawn toward Mon
golia in the worn tracks of these strange
beasts and their merry masters. Nor
