Mr.. Trip was restored to the healthful,

SIGHT SEEING IN DELHI,
some Ut the Wonders of the Indian
City Described by a Visitor.

some Ut the Wonders of the Indian
City Described by a Visitor,
You may like to have an account
OF the day I spent at Delhi. went
down on Sunday by the morning train
arriving about quarter to II. and had
a hard days sightseeing that would
nave done credit to a yankee. I went
to the jana Musjid, which is. think
the hnest mosque of it's kind have
seen. 1t has two minarets, each 1870
feet high, so I had an opportunity IF
gratifying my taste for birds eve
views again, and certainly this was the
pest L have ever seen, for, apart from
magnificent view of the city, could
see many of the famous ruins which
cluster profusely for miles round Delhi.
A little to the south, near the Jumna
STANDS a tall shaft, surrounded lJ
ruins, which was set up by the Emper-
or Feroz Shah, who reigned at Delhi
the fourteenth century. Then, three
miles to the east, could see the rufus
fthe old fort, and not far from it
the tomb of Humaion, the second Mo-
gul emperor. Scores of other ruins
could be seen in the distance and
much regretted that had not time 20
drive around and see some of them
but no doubt I shall have another op-
portunity. When I came down I was
SHOWN some relics of Mohammed. in
Guiding his foot print in stone and
halr of his beard. The keeper of the
relics, who kept them very carefully
locked up in small casket, could not
explain why his hair was red. I then
drove to the palace, which contains
much less to see than the fort at Agra.
and l had not much time to see what
there was. The private hall of audi
ence is very fine, all in. white marble,
and you can see the place where the
peacock throne used to stand, which
was valued, if I remember rightly at
36,000,000. It was carried off by q
Persian gentleman named Nadir Shah.
who is said to have possessed himself
of few trif1es, amounting in all to the
value of &142,000,0O0. The pearl
mosque is extremely beautiful and IF
the purest white marble, but it is not
equal to the pearl mosque in the Agra
fort.

The Laplanders inhabit the north.

spite of their frequent contact with the
Russians and the Swedes, they have no
Industrial resources, no art, no other
commerce than that which is afforded
by the products of the chase, or their

Christianity, to which they were con-
verified about two centuries ago. has
not aroused them as yet from their
moral and Intellectual lethargy. All

are concerned, to oral tradition. the
