10000 honorably discharged sailors and soldiers
Of the union armies in the almshouses of the
country, and says that the G. A. r. is intended
TO prevent that sort of thing. If there is any
truth in TanLers statement it is a very severe
reflection upon the O. A. r. patriots.

as the result of any effort or intrigue on his

One of tho most interesting lakes or
inland seas in the world Is the Dead sea,
which has no visible outlet. It is not
mere fancy that has clothed the dead
sea in gloom. The dcsolate shores, with
scarcely green thing in sight, and scat
tered over with black stones and ragged
driftwood, form fitting frame for tho
dark, sluggish waters, covered with
perpetual mist, and breaking in slow,
heavy, sepulchrnl toned waves upon the
beach. 1t seems as If the smoke Of the
wicked cities was yet ascending up to
heaven, and as IL the moan of their fear.
full sorrow would never leave that God
smitten valley.
1t is q strange thing to see those waves,
not dancing along and sparkling in the
sun as other waves do, but moving with
measured melancholy, and sending to
the ear, as they break languidly upon
the rock, only doleful sounds. This is,
no doubt, owing to the great heaviness
of the water, fart weh known, and
which we amply verified In tho usual
way, for, on attempting to swim, we
went floating about like empty casks.
This experiIDent was more satisfactory
in its progress than In its results, which
were very unctuous skin and a most
pestiferous singing of every nerve, as II
wo had been beaten with nettles. Nor
was the water we took into our mouth o
whit less vile than the most nauseous
drugs of the apothecary.
That fish cannot live In this strong
solution of bitumen and salt Is too obvi-
GUS to need proof; but to say that birds
cannot fly over it and live Is one Of the
exaggerations Of travellers, who perhaps
were not, like ourselves, so fortunate as
to see a flock Of ducks reposing on the
water in apparently good health. And
vet this was all the life we did see. The
whole valley was ono seething caldron,
under a more than tropical sun. God
forsaken and man forsaken, no green
thing grows within It, and it remains "a
this day as striking monument Of Gods
fearful judgments as when the fire from
heaven devoured the once mighty cities

Keeping TheIr Records.

Paris has hitherto been regarded as the
paradise Of faux menages, and quite q
number Of foreigners OF distinction have
been until now accustomed to allow
themselves q latitude Of conduct which
would not have been olerated anywhere
else. No less than half q dozen well
known English noblemcn, and an equal
number OF ladies Of the highest rank,
having been living there for several
years past in what tho church unkndly
describes as "a state OF sim" OF course,
they do not dare go near tho embassies,
but the ladies In question know and visit
each other In the most brazen manner.
Moreover, as far as the men went, whom
one met In their salons, they were tho
best and most amusing to bo found any
where, ranging from the Prince OF Wales
down TO the most impertinent "attache."

ment, proclaiming that all foreign resi-
dents shall register their names, domi.
