sons Given In the Historical Docu-
rnent and Those Stated in the Gospels
Discovery Of the Record.
The following is a correct transcript
Of the most memorable judicial sentence
which has ever been uttered by human
lips in the annals Of the world. This
curious document was discovered a. ID.
1880, in the city Of Aquill in the kingdom
Of Naples, in the course Of a search made
for the discovery Of Roman antiquities.
and it remained there until it was found
by the commissaries Of art in the French
army Of Italy. Up to the time Of the
campaign in southern Italy it was pre-
served in the sacristy Of the Carthusians,
near Naples, where it was kept in box
Of ebony. Since then the relic has been
keptin Chapelo Caserta. The Carthusians
obtained by petition leave that the plate
might bekept by them as an acknbwledg-
ment Of the sacrifices which they had
made for the French army. The French
translation was made literally BY mem
bers Of the commission OF art. Demon
had facsimile Of the plate engraved,
which was bought by Lord Howard. on
the sale Of his cabinet, for 1880 francs.
There seems to be no historical doubt
as to the authenticity Of this document,
and it is obvious to remark that the
reasons Of the sentence correspond ex-
actly with those recorded in the Gospels.
The sentence itself runs as follows:
Sentence pronounced BY Pontius Plate. IN
tendant Of Lower GalIlee, that Jesus Of Nazareth
shall suffer death by the cross. In the seven
teenth year OF the reign OF the Emperor Tiberius.
and on the 25th day Of March, in the most holy
city Of Jerusalem. during the Pontiicate Of Annas
and Caiaphas- Pontius Plate Intendant Of the
Province of Lower Galilee, sitting in Judgment iii
the presidential chair OF the preetor, sentences
Jesus OF Nazareth to death on cross, between
two robbers, as the numerous testimonies pf the
people prove that Jesus is a misIeader. O.
He has excited the people to sedition. g. He Is
an enemy to the laws. 4. He calls himself the
Son OF God 5. He calls himself falsely the King
Of Israel 8. He went to the Temple followed by
multitude carrying palms in their hands.
1t likewise orders the first centurion.
Quirilius Cornelius, to bring him to the
place Of execution, and forbids all per
sons, rich or poor, to prevent the execu-
ton Of Jesus. The witnesses who have
signed the execution against Jesus are:
W Daniel Robani, Pharisee; (2) John
Zorobabel, (3) Raphael Robani, (4) Capet.
Finally it orders that the said Jesus be
taken out Of Jerusalem through the gate

While Max O'Rell was on lecturing
tour in this country he was one day ap-
preached by young man who thanked
him earnestly for his lecture the previous
night, saying: II never enjoyed myself
more in my life" The pleased lecturer
grasped his admirers hand. II am
glad" he said, '.that my humble effort
pleased you so much" "Yes," said the
young man, 1T gave me immense pleas

town, and her family all went to your
show, and had her at home all to my

Three or a Kind.

In oneof the interior counties Of Maine
a case was called that had long been in
litigation. The chief justice, who at
that time was plain Judge Peters, thought
it impracticable to keep the suit longer
in court, and advised the parties to refer
the matter. After due deliberation they
assented, agreeing to refer the case to
three honest men. With grave smile,
in perfect keeping with judicial dignity,
Judge Peters said that the case involved
certain legal points which would require
one of the referees, at least, to have some
knowledge of law; therefore he would
suggest the propriety Of their selecting
one lawyer and two honest men!-Solic-

TO THE SEED DANDELION.

In merry mood you blossomed,
Little ball Of silver gray;
You were golden then and CHEEKY
As the eye Of winsome day
Then the earth was bare and blighted,
And the fields were brown and sere,
And you came with looks delighted.
Happiest thing Of all the year
Now the fields are pied with daisies
Woods with blossoms overrun,
And you stand the ghost Of springtime,
Shining wanly In the sun
But you chose the noblest mission,
Gave your cheer when earth was cold,
And when days were poor and barren
Freely scattered all your gold

New YoRY, July q, 1885, Special cor
respondence. of THE HERALD. Among the
many events of the fashionable season,
there are hardly any more important and
more eagerly anticipated than the great
races in the summer. In Paris it is the
Grand PriX which men and women alike
look forward to; While across the channel,
Ascot week sets hearts fiuttering with the
nope of gain or conquest, and sends all the
smart people of society out to the race
tracks. There tits that cottages are rented,
begged and borrowed, house parties made
up; and for weeks and weeks beforehand,
modlstes and tailors are busy inventing
and bringing into being the most marvel
Gus and dashing toilettes for the important
occasion.
Redfern, of course, is one of the busiest
of the firms thus occupied, and his racing
costumes are as strikingly successful as his
world famous yachting gowns, without
which even royalty is unsatisfied.
Our first sketch gives an idea of one OF
these gowns, which was worn at the Ascot
meeting.

Baltimore road, but it would be very in
significant thing on the line of the Coney
Island road.
Then you rush through acres of small
pines. They are tall and straight and as
thick as stalks in wheat field. Yet
many of these pines, not larger than
mans wrist, are cut and piled into cord
wood. Long piles of this wood run over
the little clay hills. In other clearings,
where NAPLES, hickory, ash, beach and pop
lar abound, charcoal burners arc at work.
They pile the sticks up like palisades in
fertilization until they resemble great in
verted pans. These are covered with earth.
Ventilation is secured, and they are set on
fire from below. The smothered fire con-
sumes the hydrogen and turns the wood
into charcoal.
A garden patch with whitewashed
board fence flies by. You catch glimpse
of little white cottage cleaning in the
shrubbery beyond. Everything seems
small-the houses, pine trees, picKaninnies
and even the telegraph poles.
