learning that floating walls are of
more real service to her than
stone ones, she is not likely to
waste on the latter energies which
she perceives would be more USE
fully expended in making and Or
ganizing the former; and although
her principal enemy occupies
relatively the same geographical
position as did the nations against
whom the wall was erected as a
defence. vet, however serviceable
they may have been in the past
such appurtenances of primitive
warfare would be of little use in
the present. So that this vast
structure, which has been reckOned
amongst the seven wonders of the
world, and has, as it were, been a
spectator of interesting periods of
Chinese history for so many ages
of picturesque past, has nothing
left but to await the day when
Time shall bid it cease to exist.

nations in actual war. A superior
army is always found to overcome
every species of defence, no forti-
fication is impregnabIe; but for
tresses delay the progress of an
enemy. They preserve country
from being plised by a sudden
invasion; and fortified walls pro
tracted along a boundary line serve
as a protection against sudden un-
expected inroads, or the partial at
tacks of individual plunderers in
the midst of peace"
Particular attention was paid by
Captain Parish, who accompanied
the Embassy, to the architecture
and dimensions of the walls and
towers. He observes: "The body
"f the Great Wall is an elevation
of earth. retained on each side by
a wall of masonry and terraced by
a platform of square bricks. The
retaining walls, continued above
its platform, form it's parapets.
The brick wall is placed upon
basis of stone projecting about two
feet beyond the brick work, and of
which the height is irregular, ow-
ing to the lrregularity of the
ground over whicHit runs; but not
more than two courses appear
above the sod, amounting to some
what above two feet.
The towers incorporated with
the Great Wall are distant from
The mirror. (Stillwater, Minn.) 1894-1925, 1916-10-05

each other about 100 yards; but as
the plan of the wall is curve
line, this distance estimated by
that line is variously, and some
times considerably increased; when
greater strength was required, they
are sometimes more frequent.
Their dimensions and construc-
tions, and the positions they hold
with respect to the wall, also vary
considerably with their situations.
Our conceptions, then, of the
Great Wall of China must be modi-
fed on the following points. In
place of one continuous wall of
vast dimensions extending unin-
terruptedly for distance of one
thousand five hundred miles, wind
ing over hill and dale, mountains
and rivers and presenting an ap-
pearance almost as new ana unln-
jured as when built by the EN-
peror Chin Shih two thousand
years ago, we must picture to our
selves several walls, all now in a
more or less ruined condition,
some built before and some after
the reign of the Emperor just
named, which may or may not
have been repaired, completed and
connected by him, and at one time
have presented the magnificent
spectacle which we are usually
taught to look upon as exhibited
throughout in the same proper.
The mirror. (Stillwater, Minn.) 1894-1925, 1916-10-05

tions and elaborate degree of finish
in the older Great Wall as we find
in that portion which was con-
structed during the Ming dynasty.
AS regards the latter. we have seen
that it must be considered to be of
greater extent than is usually sup
posed, extending not merely in a
north and south direction between
the provinces of Chansi and Chilli,
but also eastwards to the sea at
Shan-hai Kuan, being either an
entirely new wall, or the repair of
an older one now decayed; but in
any case not being the original
either of the Prince of Yen or of
the Emperor Chin Shih; a conclu-
sion which we found to accord
with the present comparatively re-
cent aspect of that part to account
for certain appearances in the eX-
listing structure which have had no
use in primitive warfare, and to
explain also, in more satisfactory
manner than has hitherto been
done, the silence of Marco Polo
on the subject.
The Great Wall Of China will
never be repaired. 1t will stand
on in silence through the ages like
some vast tombstone of a bygone
time, but the circumstances which
caused it's erection and would
necessitate its restoration will
never recur. Now that China is
