The social position of the women among
the Ansariyeh is degraded in’ the extreme.
It is said, indeed, that there is no race in the
world by whom women are worse treated :

Conceiving this idea shortly after the con.

becamerident that the Eastern Question
was about to enter upon a new phase,” and
having convinced himself,by reasoning which ‘
he recounts in his Introduction, that Pales—
tine was the locality and the Jews the people

selecting the district and examining the local
conditions; and, having provided himself
with letters of commendation from Lord
Beacousfield-and the Marquis of Salisbury,
and also from M. Weddington, the French
Minister of Foreign Afiairs, heproceedcd to
Constantinople and thence to Beyrout.
And here, before following him in his
travels in the_land of Gilead, it may be well
to add that his book is very far, indeed, from
being a mere circular orprospectus of a col-
onization scheme. Mr. Oliphant is too old a ,
tra'veler and too experienced-a writer to ex-
pect the public to, bestow more thana certain
amount of interest-upon even the most plau- -.
aible hobby : and while he neverallows either
himself or his reader to forget that his trav-
els jhad acertain definite object, he neverthe-
less makes the record of these travels as an-
tenaining andattractive as though- the mak-v

impunity. The villagers hasten to conciliate
only somewhat less of a rufiian than the
tribe of the Beni Sukr; and, partly owing
sum as black-mail from travelers on the road
between Jerusalem and th‘uins of J crash.
The account of this interview is too amusing
to be omitted:
"On entering his house several other Arabs
crowded in, while the sheik opened a greasy
about a score of documents in English and
French, which he seemed to regard in the
light of favorable testimonials. The price
of an escort from Jerusalem to Jerash in
time of peace is about two hundred and fifty
francs, butthc traveler who has paid this
sum is invariably black-mailed at Suf, and
hasto disgorge another hundred francs or
more before he is allowed to proceed, while a
far higher sum is demanded if he wishes to
push his explorations over the country to the
north, which we had already traversed in
safety. The testimonials which the sheik
triumphantly produced consisteddargely of
complaints against this robbery. ' When,with
anapparent feeling of gratified vanity, he
handed us a testimonial calling him an ‘ex-
tortionate old thief,’ and warning travelers
reading it carefully and then returning to
him, to be stowed away for future use, and
then expected as to comply with his demand
for money, he seemed quite astonished at Our
attitude of resistance.
“ ‘Why should we pay you five pounds?’
“ 'It is the curhm,’ he replied; ‘no trav-
eler has been allowed to visit the ruins
without paying me.’
“ ‘Then it is a bad custom, which must be
immediately discontinued,’ we said.
decline absolutely to pay a fartbing.’
“ ‘But no one has ever before dcclined.’
_ “ ‘Then it is high time for someone to set
the example,’ we remarked, and we called in
the zaptichs, who for the first time proved
of some use. They, anxious to prove their
zeal and importance. and knowing that they
ran no risk,as the Caimakam and his soldiers

“atrocities.” Mr. Oliphant regarded the the sheik a torrent of invective—telling him

, An experimental exhibition of -the pro-
duction of a new fuel from the combination
of petroleum-and steam was given in New
York recently. The invention promises re-
sults of importance. To produce combus-
tion nothing more is necessary than by
means of an atomizer to unite dry steam and
.crude petroleum, only a common inch pipe
being used for this purpose, one for steam
the other for oil, with cocks to regulate the
The junction is made within six
inches of a perforated brick retort, which
the nozzle enters. and instantly on a match
being applied the whole interior of the fur-
nace (an ordinary reverberatory smelting
furnace) becomes intensely heated, so much
so that all the exposed surfaces'may be easily
fused. If applied to _a steam boiler, on a
locomotive or on shipboard, it is only nec
essary to place the rctorts, made of fire clay
on the grate bars, thus protecting the boiler
plates from injury. It is claimed that a
locomotive can be run from New York to
Philadelphia for $4, instead of an expense of
some $25, as at present with coal. More
than this, the fuel creates no gas, smokcfishes
old pocket book, and extracted therefrom flow.

We meet again, old comrades dear,
All veterans tried and true—
We meet to grasp the friendly hand
And old-time time love renew.
We’ve marched, and fought, and suffered all,
In sun and stormy weather—
In tented camp and bivonsc,
We’ve shared them all together.

.CHOIUB.—Slllll old acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind 2
Nay. rather let “saws sing,“
our hearts more strongly bind.
The days of battle for the right,
When country bade us go,
Wrought in each soldier’s breast such love
As comrades only know. '
Our elbows touched, our feet kept time,
As one we met the foe;
Together faced the tide of death——
Together, weal or woe.
Some noble men, our comrades once
In war’s fierce days of yore,
Silks, Satins Flushes, Brocaded Satins, Bib- - "

are and Birds.

oons on hand.
We meet them here no more.
But in our hearts 5 fragrant shrine
Shall hold their memories dear;
So in our song we'll dropfor them,
The soldier’s loving tear.
The days of war are over quite,
Its perils ovprpaat; _
We hear no more the battle call,
Drum—roll or bugle-blast.
We meet in peace and quiet here,
As brothers true and tried;
We pledge our hearts,-we give our hands.
Comrades. we’ll e'er abide.

A woman writ:s of Mrs. Hayes: “As
much is said and written about .the temper.-
ance principles of our preeidents’a wife,1
would like to- present another pha'se other
character, as an example for the women of
the land to follow. During an acquaintance
with her for the last twenty-five years, I
have never heard her speak ill of any one.
I once asked her how this came about, that
she was so guarded in ‘his respect, when I
knew .he was tempted as much as any one
to use her tongue to the detriment of others.
She said in rcply,,that at night, before going
to sleep, her husband would say to her:
“Now, have we said anything against any
one t-e-tlay ?’ I, know this is entering-the
but as she is now in such'a conspicuou‘s‘plhce,
I cannot forbear to usemy knowledge for the
general good. She herself may never think
. of possessing this trait, and may not remem-
ber this remark of hereto me; but years have
not efi’aced it from my mind. " - .
