FROM JERUSALEM TO THE
COAST FORTY YEARS AGO.

The insect r.ty Of travelling was not
! then very seriously felt on the regular
routes betweenJerusalem and the coast,
unless it might be for anyone travel
! ling entirely alone, but even then, If
seen to be we'll armed, he would prob
ably have been safe. Arabs were too
bad marksmen to be serious source
of peril to moving object at long
range. and unless in strong tol &c, they
! had ii .iudicions DIRE ad of coming to
close QUA ters wit a well-armed Euro.
pgan. 1t was in venturing into dis
tricts more exclusively occupied by
| Bedouin Arab tribes that peril became
serious, and the sweet uses Of a govern
ment at rec weak and t, rannical were
apt to be fully appre ciateJ. One of
the prlncip,l events Of the year was
the annual East'r pilgrimage to the
Jordan of an immense caravan OF pill
grims from all parts of Europe, eager
TO secure the benefits held to be deriv-
| ed from bathing in the sacred waters.
The caravan h I'd been in the habit of
travelling under the protection Of a
guard of Turkish troops, aud tourists
anxious TO visit the Jordan and Dead
Sea not unfrequentIy took advantage
of the escort. They were wont to fol-
low short distance in the rear OF the
motley crowd which constituted the
main body; but were always warned
never to lose sight of it, as the move
mems of the B..douin ARABS. ever on
the watch on these occasions, were
marvellously swift and sudden. On
the date in question, an American, not
deficient in self-confidence, was one OF
the supernumery band, and, as he ode
down the rocky passes, and saw on all
sides nothing but barren hills devoid
of every sign of life, he held the warn
ines he had received idle tales, and
fingered behind The party, botanizing
or sketching, until the last of the rear
guard had disappeared round bend
in the pass. In few moments as
though they had sprung from the earth,
the Bedouln Arabs were upon him.
Luckily, he attempted no resistance.
so he escaped personal injury; but he
was stripped hot only of all his valu-
ables, but of every stitch Of clothing
he possessed, save only his hat and
boots, for which his captors had no
use: aud in this melancholy plight he
was left upon the road. His life would
certainly have paid the forfeit of his
temerity had some English travellers
not been following in the rear of the
pilgrims, with special guard OF their
own, and found the hapless victim Of
his own obstlnacy in his doleful con-
dition. But then there arose diff
Gully as to what to do with him. The
party were bound on an expedition of
only few days, and had left all their
heavy luggage behind in Jerusalem.
They had no superhuous clothing to
spare. At last, as the only resource,
they took him to the nearest Arab VII
lage, negotiated through their inter
prefer the purchase of sack, cut holes
in the bottom and sides for his head
and arms, and bribed some Of the VII
layers to take him. in this primitive
costume, back to Jerusalem, where he
would be able to retit himself with
some sort of raiment.-Atalunta.

~ THE 4NPHITHE.4 TIRE.

On one of those days he went to the
amphitheater, the circus which Herod
the Great had built, at some distance
from the city. He paid for seat IN
one of the upper galleries. On the
tiers Of seats below him were all sorts
of people, and far away, on the oppo-
site side of the vast arena, the sandy
level in the middle, he saw, III the low
er tier, canopied place that was fur
nished magnifcen.ly. la it there were
throne seats, and on them sat King
Herod Antipas, Pontlus Pilatus, the
Roman governor, two Roman generals,
with other distinguished men, and
number of richly dressed women, some
of whom wore brilliant tiaras or coro-
nets upon their heads. lie stared at
them for a few minutes, and at the ire
mendous throng Of people, but after
that he thought onl Of what was 60
ing on in the arena.
There were chariot races: and Cyril
could not HELP being intensely excited
by the mad rush of the contending
teams, while all the thousands who
looked on shouted and raved. After
the races, however, came scenes some
of which made him shudder. There
were foot-races and boxing matches,
but these were soon overland then there
were contests between pairs of swords
men, spearmen, clubmen, and the like,
IN which the fights went on until one
of the combatants was slam. Close up
on the last of these duels, bands Of
gladiators marched in from opposite
sides Of the arena, and charged each
other like detachments OF soldiers upon
real battlefield.
The fighting was furious and des-
perata, but one side Was soon beaten,
for the parties had not been equal.
One party had been trained warriors,
professional gladiators, and the other
only common men, captives taken III

were put there only to be killed for

of the multitude. 50 were the poor

0, GATES OF MERCY.
By HAMILTON JAY.

Q, gates of mercy, open wide
And let the weary mortals in,
Who, weak and faint, oppressed of pride
A refuge seek to find from sin.
The lonely ones who weep,
And those who lie on beds of pain
Beseech the blessings in the keep,
\ portion of thy blessed gain.
And those to whom the world. grown cold,
Holds nothing now but bitter grief,
With pleading hands that scarce can told
En- treat of these the sweet relief.
The flower and fruit of life are dead
And gone are all its sweetest, best,
And hearts on which the sunlight she'd
Now do but crave the time Of rest
O, gates Of mercy. often grim
Ye look to unanonted eyes.
But those whose faith is fixed on Him
Regard thee as the greatest prize.
For when We open, life no more
Is wrecked or famished or athirst,
For just beyond thee is the shore
On which eternal morning burst.
No night can come, no sound is heard
OF weeping. All is JOY fulness,
And roses by sweet breezes stirred,
Their purest fragrance shed to bliss.
And through this land supremels fair
There flows the liver of His peace
And there the woe and want and care
OF life find rapturous surcease.
And then shall His own precious ba IN
Be she,i on souls set free from sin
And over all be wondrous calm,
When we those gates shall enter in.

A New York View of the Effects of the
Bond IsSue.

"a new 4Ork view OF the Effects OF the
Bond Issue.
The circular of Henry Clews. the New York
banker, says under date of February 8: GAS to the
bond ISSUE Wall street is deeply impressed with its
value as a new uplifting element in the general
situation, and the feeling is general that its real
effects have yet to come. AT one stroke il puts the
whole investment interest of the country upon a
higher status. 1t exhibits a vast unemployed
home source of investment that had not been sup
posed TO exist. 1t reveals in position of re-
source which we had not credited ourselves with
having attained-namely, that of a people with
vast accumulations of capital ready to be loaned
Tor long periods at low rates of interest. What
Europe has been to u.s. as a source of procuring the
means for internal development, find
have become ourselves. This uplifting of the veil
reveals to us the United States emancipated from
dependence upon future foreign lending and
capable OF framing its destinies from its own cap
talstlc power.
sit is understood that an important sum of the
loan goes to the German Reichsbank and that other
sums have been awarded 10 representatives of
continental investors. These engagements place
so much 10 our credit in Europe and will have an
easing effect upon the foreign exchanges. which,
according TO current symptoms. do not seem likely
10 give much Inconvenience for the next few
months Thus the conditions affecting Wall-street
interests and the general busne s of the country
have entered on a new and entirely more hopeful
phase, and the current year should show more
prosperous results than were realized in 1895.
1.-THE immenge demonstration of the American
people in bidding for the United States bond loan
largely inspired by the recent majority action
OF the Senate. The effect of brilliant success
of the loan will be magnetic. both at home and
abroad 1t insures the credit of the Government
on the basis of the worlds best money. 1t will
give confidence 10 everybody in trade circles 1t
will be the signal for new vigorous departure
with everybody connected with commercial enter
prise, and return of confidence in every channel
OF business. 1t Will change the competition in the
stock market to the buying side in place of as
heretofore, the selling side. This will especially
apply to European dealings in our securities We
in for steady bull movement of important
dimensions and for a prolonged period"
