Monkeys at a Shrine.

Here was spot where, beneath the shadows
Of the ''abodes OF the gods,n the worlds two
greatest sects, forgetting their differences,
hade clasped hands, where Hindooism and
Buddhism had bound together in one volume
their Sanscrit shastras and the writings of
Confucius, and where the Mongolian from
Pekin and the Malabari from Ramesh waram
bent the knee side by side in the same sacred
precincts, consecrated alike to Buddha and
silva On the other hand, the ''shndes Of the
ancestors" assuming the forms of monkeys,
diSported themselves and made light Of these
hallowed scenes, defling oven the holy of
holes, taunting the most devout with winks,
Hmirks and flendish grimaces. Then, as if it
was all good joke, they would add injury to
insult by daring, on the sly to snatch with their
sacTnegious paws the votive offerings out of
the very hands Of the sin stricken penitents:
would impudently retire with their booty
and sit down to eat it at their leisure perched
up beside the nostrils of the gods themselves,
and wfping their whiskers on the divine
heads. What was most surprising, no one
seemed to take notice of them or resent their
conduct, and great was the astonishment
manifested by the monkeys when we went at
them for trying to upset our camera, and
especially when an old red faced one, who
must have once been thorough scoundrel Of
q Hindoo, thought OF appropriating our
camera cloth.-Harper's Magazine.

Of the former immense popularity Of the

there had been printed Of his Life and

The Peoples Edition required 1881 reams,

used was 100, 542, ,43s, which, laid side by side,
would cover 8,S6S square miles. During the
period when Scott was editing the Complete
Edition Of his novels no less than 1000 per-
sons, one-hundredth part, Of the population
Of Edinburg, were occupied in the manufac-
