But when I looked at him to-night, I saw no single trace Of the old glory; onsy just A very common face.

My dear sir, will you please to take a reef in your sneer, and give the her ring a chance? To be sure, the poor little smoked and withered object is at best but a hunger and thirst inspiring mess; hut if you will follow its career from The time it got lost from somebody’s basket until it ceased to be a useful promulgator of human happiness, you will, injustice to this odoriferous and much-scorned tinny, confess that it really had a mission, and accom plished it quite as faithfully as that celebrated whale told of in Scripture, who found liis terrestrial contempory so marvellously indigestible—or, to use the abbreviated hut expressive slang of modern times, the whale who found Jonah such a “tough cuss.” (I trust the good prophet will pardon me for calling him names, for it is to he hoped the old gentleman keeps up with the progress of litera ture, and he might happen to get hold of this paper and see that the people of the nineteenth century swallow both him and the whale, and retain them with considerable more confidence than the fish exhibited after gobbling up the man.) However, as a harmless tradition, the whale may float, for all me; hut, for a practical yet modest wielder of fate, give me the herring that “Ted” Harper found one night as he was going after his pretty sister at the Blank theatre. A deceptive parcel it presented, as it lay on the pavement, wrapped in a white paper, neatly tied around with astring. “Ted” made a grab for it, with a thrill of joyous expectation. “Golly! maybe it’s a bonanza!” he exclaimed, rushing towards a sa loon window near, and eagerly ex- aming his “find,” his dirty little digits trembling with exciting hopes supposed to be hidden in a bonanza.” “Dang it! a herring!” Oh, the disgust, the concentrated disappoint ment, contained in the kick that helpless little fish received as “Ted” flung it from him in the gutter. “Ted” ran his hands down deep into his pockets, and meditated upon the shallowness of hope and the hol lowness of life generally. He had not helped Longfellow write his “Psalm of Life,” but he was the per sonification of the line: “And things are not what they seem/’ “Dang it all! he muttered, “if that had a-heen a million bonanza, me arid Xeil would a-gone to the Fifth Avenue hotel and lived like gentle men, and we’d agone to the Conter- uent and got our names in the papers like high-toners—by-Jawg!” Tii is last explosive evidently meant something quite foreign to his mutterings, for he made a sudden dive after the abused herring, and wrapping it into a neat parcel again, Le assumed a mild and business like air, althougii his eyes twinkled with some hidden idea; aud entered tiie saloon. “Say, mister, buy a ‘blind?’ ” “A what?” exclaimed the barten der. “A blind—a something what’s got value, and you don’t know what ’ti tili yous paid for it.” “Get out, you little vagabond! None of your smart tricks here!” the bartender cried, with an angry move towards “Ted;” but one of the gen tlemen present interfered, saying with a jocular glance at Ted: “Let him alone. Come here, my boy, and let me peep at your ‘blind.’” But Ted made for the door, aud would have escaped if he had not been caught by the speaker, who laughingly wanted to kuow what was in the parcel. “How shut! I know ?” Ted retort ed, with the wit of an embryo poli tician. “ ’Taint no put up job, hon or bright—’taint!” “Where did you get it?” “Found it right outside of this here door." The gentleman took the package from Ted’s reluctaut grasp, lingered it, smelt of it and with a knowing smile at Ted remarked: “Found it, did you, and, supposing some of us lost it, thought you would sell it for the reward ?” “Ye-as,” the young speculator 1 brawled, looking down at the end of his nose, that he was diligently scratching, to avoid meeting the hu morous scrutiny of his interlocutor; theu added courageously: “I must go. My sister she’s a- waitin’ for me to take her home; I guess the theater is out now.” “Olt, no, it’s time enough yet for another act,” the gentleman replied, detaining Ted by gentle force. “Is your sister young and pretty ?” “You bet!” Ted cried with enthu siasm, “and she is going to be a sec ond Lotta after awhile. You see, she ain’t been at it long yet; hut she gets enough money already to sup port nte’u her.” “So you are a pair of orphans, are you ?” “I should think so. We ain’t al ways been poor, neither; but after mother died father he took to opium wors’n ever, and nobody didn’t buy his pictures, and he had no money to buy paint. Then my uncle—you know him as plays the three halls lie got hold of father, and it didn’t take long to use us up after that. Teddsaid this last with asolemn wis dom, joined with a sorrowful compre hension of his family troubles that was as touching as ridiculous—touch ing from its apparent truth, and rid iculous in its etiort to inviteattention to the fact that the little narrator was not of common “scrub stock.” Ted had by this time quite an au dience, who became interested in his worldly-wise, ingenious little face, and when his first friend proposed an “auction,” then and there, to dis pose of tiiat mysterious ‘blind’ the good natured crowd fell into tiie idea with acclamation. The bidding be gan with a nickel, and the fun of competition ran into shillings very shortly, and after a little the parcel was knocked down to the highest bidder for a dollar and a half. Ted was simply charmed into open monthed silence; but when the new owner—after “treating all round”— proposed again disposing of it by auc tion, and played auctioneer with such advantageous skill that lie realized over two dollars by the sale, Ted be gan to think he had, indeed found a bonanza. At this moment the door of the saloon opened timidly, and an anxious pair of bright eyes lighted, from a closely mufiied face, upon Ted, and a troubled, reproachful voice cried: “Teddy, Teddy, what in the world are you doing here? Come home this minute !” Ted rushed to wards the door shouting: “Don’t scold, Nell; I found a herring aud it turned out a reg’lar bonanza.” Poor Tedd ! His exciting “give way” of the “blind,” created a roar of laugh ter, ami he was sharp enough to see his blunder and join in the fun at his own expense, while his sister peered into the half-open door in per plexed anxiety. The gentleman, a handsome fellow, who first interest ed himself in the brother, advanced now to the sister, aud while placing the results of the herring auction in Ted’s hand, explained briefly how Ted came to he detained. The girl blushingly scolded the boy for his wicked trick, and added: “I have had such a fright! I waited for him until they closed the theatre, and then hurried home, fearin something had happened to him. Of course, when I did not find him there I started out to look for him, for he has never tailed to meet me at the theatre before. I called and made enquiries everywhere. At last a po liceman told me a little boy was seen in this saloon. Dear me, how scared I was ! Come Teddy,” she said, tak ing him by tiie hand in a motherly fashion; “and don’t you ever be such a bad hoy again, or Fll do something awful to you!” “May I walk home with you?” The girl drew back and her face flushed, but she met the gentleman's admiring glance with shy re proach in her own dark eyes, as she replied: “Thank you : I need no company but Ted’s. x A short walk brought the two or- j was buried Nellie left her little room phans to their neat little apart- j f or a comfortable home as the wife of nient, and then "Nell !’’ sat demure- j James Overton. lv and listened to the story of Ted's | Among the curiosities in their herring.

I’ll wait outside of the door, and you go in and put it on the counter. Conte, we are not beggars yet.” Ted began to cry quietly, but he knew there was no use protestin together they hastened on their er rand. The girl waited in the shadow of the adjoining hall door as Ted deeply humiliated, opened the saloon and found the same crowd still gath ered tnere. “My sister is much obliged, but she— Ted’s throat filled and obstructed further utterance. Laying the money down, he rushed out and join ed his sister again. They gained their home without discovering that they had been followed. Tiie following day a large package was left for Ted and his sister. A letter accompanied, which read: Teddy, I trust this suit of clothes will fityou nicely, and that you will wear it with credit to your sister,who takes such admirable pains to make a fine man of you. The inclosure she must accept from a sincere friend to all of her sex who strive honestly to surmount the difficulties besettin their pathway while unaided and alone they battle tor place and bread. ’Tis not the offering of charity. It is tendered in tiie spirit of a brother to a sister. Be a brave, studious boy, Teddy, and hurry up into the growth of a protector. Ten ten-dollar bills constituted the “inclosure.” The letter was signed “True Friend.” Poor little Nell! If the government had opened its treasure to her she could not have felt richer. She knew what it was to make the most of a dollar. The burden of living had fallen upon her early, and the hun dred dollars in her lap seemed to lift a world of care from her mind—coal, rent, clothing, victuals and these not considered trifles in a household which consume so many odd shil lings; and Nell earned §8 per week, and here was §100 to smooth the rough corners of ail their needs. Nell bowed her head in her little woman ly hands, and cried as if her relieved lieart could not give vent to its grati tude iu any other way. Ted had got into his new clothes. They fitted him splendidly. But when lie saw his sister weep he went md laid his head on her shoulder stud began to force a tear or two from beaming eyes, just for sympathy aud said: “What’s the use of crying, Sis? When all tiiese ‘spoils’ is gone I’ll be big enough to earn money!” Nell only hugged his head and cried the more, saying: “Aiut it awful nice, Teddy? I do wonder where it come from?” “I’ll bet you I can guess,” Ted re marks, a little uncertain whether to express his guess. “Why, who?”’ “I think it’s that nice big gentle man who wanted to see us home.” “Teddy! How dare you think so!” “Ted” thought he had better re tract, for fear those|new things would go the way of the lierriug-money ; so he quickly exclaimed : “Pshaw! It couldn’t be him, you know, for he don’t know where we live, nor our names, nor nothing !” Happily some mon ths passed; Nel lie was making progress in her busi ness. She had spoken some lines and received the commendation of the stage-manager, and, filled with hope for the future, she flitted out of the stage entrance door to meet “Ted" ami tell him of her success. “Ted was there, but he was so sick that he could scarcely totter along by his sis ter’s side. He had complained of a severe head and throat ache ail day, and now the little chap was com pletely “used up,” he told his sister, staggering with each word. rihe supported him until his legs refused to support themselves, and, frightened and heart-sore, she at tempted to carry him, when he was quietly lifted front her hold and taken'in the arms of a gentleman who had “shadowed” the two from the stage door. Nell recognized him with a singu lar sensation of pleasure, and ac cepted his assistance with a quiet “Thank you.” Ted was curried up into their little room aud placed on his lounge, the gentleman saying to Nell: “Undress him and get him to bed while I am gone ; I will fetch a phy sician.” Ted was utterly unconscious of the kisses aud tears rained upon him by his sister, and when the doctor came he looked very solemn and said “Pneumonia.” The unusual noise in the room ar rested the attention of the people in the house, and friendly hands min istered to the moaning lad and gave encouragement to the almost frantic sister. Ted’s “nice, big gentleman” attended to all the doctor’s orders, and Nell could only look her fervent gratitude as he went in and out like some masculine angel of mercy. Once he stooped over and whispered to her: “Trust me as you would a brother or father.” “What shall I call you?” “James Overtou.” The next night and the following Nell did not go to the theatre, for she sat by the side of poor little Teddy, who would never again find a “bo nanza,” or witness an auction of her rings, for lie was dead. As il frozen with her loneliness and grief, Nell bent her tearless eyes upon the silent form, her fiugers in terlaced iu the agony of her unutter able sorrow. “All are gone, all—all—and I am left alone. O Teddy ! Teddy ! why could it not have been me?” she murmured. “Not aioue, Nellie, my brave little ®. | woman. Let me be your more than brother or friend, if in time you can learn to lean Jupon me confidently, Nellie, here at poor Teddy’s side I tell you that I have known and ad mired you for months, have watched your heroic conduct, have learnt to iove you. Do not be alone in your sorrow, dear girl, for your grief is mine—only tell me that my sym pathy is not intrusive, and that my presence is a comfort.” She gave him her hand, saying mournfully: “It seems as if God had sent you. Tell me here, are you the writer of that letter signed ‘True Friend ?’ ” “I am. You will not be angry ?” “Oh, no. It made poor Teddy so proud aud happy. He guessed it came from you.” A few months after poor Teddy HAPPILY RUINED. A DOCTOR’S CLEVER STRATA GEM. upon her with a dawning conscious 1 ' i :— somethin 0 done Fire*. Special to Enquirer-Sun.] Chicago, February 13.—A fire oc- Arthur Morton sat in his room in his hotel. He was a young man six and twenty, tall and slim frame, with a face of great intellectual beauty, dressed in costly garments, though his toilet was hut indifferently per formed. As he sat thus, his door was open ed, and an elderly gentleman enter ed. “Ah, doctor, you are moving early this morning,” said Morton, as he lazily rose from his seat and extended his hand. “Oh, not early for me, Arthur,” returned Weston, with a bright smile. “I am an earlybird.” “Well, have you caught a worm this time ?” “I hope it will prove a valuable one.” “I don’t know,” sighed the youth. I fear a thousand worms will inhab it this poor body ere long.” “Nonsense, you’re worth half a century yet,” cried the doctor, giving him a gentle slap on the shoulder. “But just tell me, Arthur, how it is with Crosby?” “Just as I told you. All is gone.” “I don’t understand, Arthur.” “Neither do I,” said the young man. “That Matthew Crosby could have done that thing, I would not, I could not have believed. Why, had an angel appeared to me two weeks ago, aud told me that Crosby was shaky, 1 would not have paid moment’s attention to it. But only think of it, when my father died he selected for my guardian his best friend, and such I even now believe Matthew Crosby was, and in his hands he placed his wealth, and for him to keep until I was of age. And when 1 did arrive at that period of life I left my money where it was; I had no use for it. Several times within three or four years has Crosby asked me to take my money and in invest it, but I would not. I bade him keep it and use it if he wished. I only asked that when I wanted money he would honor my demand I felt more safe, in fact, than I should have felt had my money been iu a bank on deposit.” “How much had he when he left?’ “He should have had £100,000.” “What do you mean to do?” “Ah, you have me on the hip there.” “An yet you must do something, my son. Heaven knows I would keep you if I could. I shall claim the privilege of paying your debts, however.” “No, uo—doctor—none of that.” “But I tell you I shall, I shall pay your debts, but beyond that I can only help you to assist yourself. What do you say to going to*sea? A faint smile sweptover the youth’s pale features at this remark. “I should make a smart hand at sea, doctor. I can hardly keep my legs on shore. No, no, I must—" “Must what Arthur?” “Alas, I know not. I shall die— that is all!” “Nonsense, Arthur. I say, go to sea. You couldn’t go into a shop, and you would not if you could. You do not wish to remain here, amid the scenes of your happier days. Think of it—at sea you would be free from all sneers of the heartless, and free from all contact with things yo loath. Think of it.” “If I went to sea what could I do?” “You understand all the laws of foreign trade?” “Yes. You know I had a thor ough schooling at that in my father’s counting house.” “Then you can obtain the berth of supercargo.” “Are you sure I can get one?” “Yes.” “Doctor Weston, I will go.” Arthur walked from home one evening to the house of a wealthy merchant, John Melburne. It was a palatial dwelling,and many a hopeful, happy hour had he spent beneath its roof. He rung at the bell and was admitted to the parlor. In a few minutes Grace Melburne entered. She was only 20. She had been wait ing until that age to be Arthur’s wife. Some words were spoken, many minutes of Dainful silence ensued. “Grace, you knowall. Iam going from my native land a beggar. I cannot stay longer now. Grace, did I know you less than I do—or, know ing you well, did I know you as I do many—I should give hack your vows and free you from all bondage. But I believe I should trample upon your heart did I do that thing now. I know your love is too pure and deep to be torn from your bosom at will. So I say wait! There are other feel ings in the heart besides love. That love is a poor, profitless passion which puts aside all other considera tions. We must love for eternity, and so our love must be free. Wait. Iam going to work—aye, upon the sea to work.” “Alas! must it be ?” “It must. You will wait ?” “I will wait even to the gates of the tomb?!’ “Then heaven bless and preserve you.” The ruined youth was upon the ocean, his voyage begun, his duties as laborer for his own daily bread all fairly assumed. Ah ! it was a strange life for him to enter upon. From the ownership of immense wealth to the trade books of a merchant ship was a transition indeed. But, ere he went on deck again, he had fully resolved that he would do his duty, come what would, short of death. He would forget that he ever did else but work for his livelihood. With these resolves clearly determined in his mind, he already felt better. At first our supercargo was too weak to do much. He was very sick and it lasted nearly two weeks, but when that passed off, and he could pace the vibrating deck with a stout stomach his appetite grew sharp and his muscles began to grow strong. At first he craved some of the many delicacies he had long been used to, but they were not to be had, and he very soon learned to do without them. The result was that his appe tite became natural in its wants, and his system began to find itself nour ished by simple food taken in proper quantities. For years he had looked upon breakfast as a meal which must be set out and partaken of from mere fashion. A cup of coffee, aud per haps a piece of dry toast, or a season ed and highly spiced tidbit, had con stituted the morning meal. But now when the breakfast hour came, he approached it with a keen appetite, and felt as strong and as hearty as at any other time of day. By degrees the hollow cheeks be came full, the dark eyes assumed new lustre, the color, rich and healthful, came to the face, the breast swelled with increasing power, the lungs ex panded and grew strong, the muscles became more firm and true, the nerves grew strong, and the garments which he had worn when he came on board had to be let out some inch es in order to make them fit. His disposition became cheerful and bright, and by the time the ship had reached the southern cape of Africa the crew had all learned to love him. Through storm and sunshine, through tempest and calm, through dark hours and origlit, the young su percargo made his voyage. In one year from the day which he had left his native land he placed his foot again upon the soil of his home. But he did not stop. The same ship, with the same officers, was go ing upon the same cruise again, and he meant to go in her. He saw Grace Melburne and she would wait. He saw Dr. Weston, and the kind old gentleman praised him for his manly impudence. Again Arthur Morton was upon the sea, and again he assumed the duties of his office, and even more. He even stood watch when there was no need of it, and during seasons of storm he claimed a post on deck. At the end of another year the young man returned to his home again. He was now eight aud twen ty, and few who knew him two years before could recognize him now. His face was bronzed by exposure, his form was filled out to perfection, and he was greeted with great effusion by old Dr. Weston, who would insist on his staying with him during his leave on shore. One day after Ar thur’s arrival he suddenly burst into the room, and said abruptly: “Well, Arthur, Mr. Crosby is here. Will you see him?” “ISee him? See Matthew Crosby? Of course I will. He owes mean ex planation, and I hope he can give me a satisfactory one.” The door was opened and Mr. Cros by entered. He was an elderly man, but hale and hearty. The old man and the young one shook hands, a id then inquired after each other’s health. “You received a note from me some two yearsago,” said Crosby, “in which I stated that one in whom I trusted had got your money and mine with it, and that I could not pay you.” “Yes, sir’” answered our hero, not knowing what was to come next. “Well,” resumed Crosby, Dr. Wes ton was the man. He had your money.” “How? What?” gasped Arthur, gazing from one to the other in blank astonishment. “Hold on, my boy,” said the doc tor, while a thousand emotions seem ed to work within his bosoj/i. “I was the villain. It was I who got your money. I worked your ruin, and I will tell you why ; I saw that you were dying. Your father died of the same disease. A consumption was upon him—not the regular pulmo nary affection, but a wasting away of the system for want of vitality. The mind was wearing out the body. The soul was slowly but sureiv eating its way from the cords that bound it to the’ earth. I knew that you could be cured, and I knew, too, that the only thing in the world which would cure you was to throw you ou your own physical resources for a livelihood. There was a morbid willingness of the spirit to pass away. You would have died ere you would have made an exertion, from the very fact that you looked upon exertion as worse than death. It was a strange state of both mind and body. Your for tune rendered work unnecessary, so there was no hope while that fortune remained. Had it been a wholly bodily malady, I could have argued you into necessary work for a cure. And on the other hand, had it been a wholly mental disease, I might have driven your body to help your mind. Both were weak, and I knew that you must either work or die. “And, now, my boy, I’ll tell you where my hope lay. I knew that you possessed such a true pride of in dependence that you would work. saw Crosby, and told him my plans. I assured him if we could contrive to get you to sea, and make you start out into active life, for the sake of a livelihood, you could be saved. He joiued me at once. I took your money and his, and then bade him clear out. You know the rest. Your money is safe—every penny of it—to the amount of £150,000. Poor Crosby has suffered much in knowing how you looked upon him; but I know that he is amply repaid by the sight of your noble, powerful frame, as he sees it to-night. And now, Arthur, are we forgiven?” It was a full hour before all the questions of the happy friends could be asked and answered, and when the doctor and Crosby had been tor- given and blessed for* the twentieth time, Mr. Melburne said, “Wait!” He left the room, and when he re turned he led sweet Grace by the hand. Late in the evening, after the health of our friends had fairly be gun to grow tired with joy, Arthur asked Grace whether he need wait any longer. Grace asked her father, and the an swer may be easily guessed. “Charge It.” An oldish citizen who had scraped a few hundred dollars together started in the saloon business on Hastings street a few days ago, and a man whom he knew and did not particu larly admire started in the same busi ness at the same time a few doors above. There was something of a rivalry between the two places about fixing up, and the old man was con stantly on the watch to see that the other did not get ahead of him. He had just settled down to the belief that he was a long ways ahead, when in came a customer who said: “Ah! you’ll have to hang up your fiddle now. The man above you was just showing nte his slate. He has over twenty names on it since morn ing, and four men have just gone in there after ten-cent drinks.” “Ish dot some facts?” exclaimed the old man, thoroughly aroused in a moment. “Y*es, and I’ll bet he’ll have $20’ charged to customers before night.” “Und I shall haf more as forty! Vhait tills I runs mit der grocery for a slate, und den you sthand on der corner und gif all der poys some winks to come in. I don’t let dot man get aheadt of me if I haf to puy ten schlates!” Night closed in on the old man top of the heap.—Detroit Free Press. Cuba. Special to Enquirer-Sun.

TweIvesto»e8 were set in the breast plate of the Hebrew high priest, probably as emblems of the twelve tribes of Israel; on this point, how ever, opinions differ. We therefore merely give the names of the stones as set out in the English Bible. Sar- dius, topaz, carbuncle, emerald, sap phire, diamond, figure, agate, ame thyst, beryl, onyx and jasper. In the New Testament the twelve foun dations of the New Jerusalem are represented as of so many precious stones. The list comprises the jasper, sapphire, chalcedony, emerald, sar donyx, sardius, chrysolite, beryl, to paz, chrysopraise? jacinth and ame thyst. The twelve gates of the heav enly city are in like manner said to be of pearl. By some the twelve foundations are supposed to symbol ize as many apostolic virtues. This is to say: 1. Jasper—Constancy and firninees. 2. Sapphire—Heavenly thoughts. 3. Chalcedony—Ardent zeal. 4. Emerald—Suavity of manner. 5. Sardonyx—Variety in teaching. C. Sardius—Readiness for martyr dom. 7. Chrysolite—Restrained by no ob stacles. 8. Beryl—Preparednes of mind at all times. 9. Topaz—Healing power. 10. Chrysoprase—Severity toward tin. 11. Hyacinth or Jacinth—Calmness in all storms. 12. Amethyst—Sobriety and tem perance. The twelve pearls were said to de note the superior purity of the New Testament. Iu latter times the twelve apostles were all represented by nearly the same precious stones as in the forego ng fist. Thus: Jasper was Peter: firm as a rock. Sapphire—Andrew : full of heav enly faith. Chalcedony—James: loving. Emerald—John : pure and gentle. Sardonyx—Philip : friendly. Carnelian—Bartholomew: the mar tyr. Beryl—Thomas: the doubting. Topaz—James the Less: delicate. Chrysoprase—Tbaddeus: sereneand trustful. Amethyst—Matthew: the apostle and Evangelist. Hyacinth and Jacinth—Simeon : the sweet-tempered. A moment’s reflection upon the examp'es which have been given will suffice to show not only what a value has always been placed upon preci ous stones, but how much they have exercised the iuiagi nation of men in a ! ages. alf hour, to have the bile and other im P lII *ities strained or filtered from it. w Bile is the natural purgative of the bowels, and W if the Liver becomes torpid it is not separated from the blood, but carried through the veins I— to all parts of the system, and in trying to es- M cape through the pores of tiie skin, causes it to turn yellow or a dirty brown color. The stem- ^ ach becomes diseased, and Dyspepsia, Intli- P gestion, Constipation, Headache, Biliousness, Jaundice, Chills, Malarial Fevers, Piles, Sick and Sour Stomach, and general debility follow. a* Merrell’s Hepatine, the great vegetable dis- Ht covery for torpidity, causes the Liver to throw W olf from one to two ounces of bile each time the blood passes through it, as long as there is W an excess of bile ; and the effect of even a few doses upon yellow complexion ora brown dirty , looking skin, will astonish all who try it—they I being the first symptoms to disappear. The ! cure of all bilious diseases and Liver complaint is made certain by taking Hepatine in accord ance with directions. Headache is generally cured in twenty minutes, and no disease that arises from the Liver can exist if a fair trial is given. SOLD AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR PILLS BY ALL DRUGGISTS.

Says a correspondent of the Her- aid: I must now ask the reader to accompany me from the Iturbide ho tel in the City of Mexico to the grand plaza in front of the National palace, or residence of the president, and the great building within which may be found all the chief govern ment offices. We are in front of a curious building, which looks as if it had as many architects as it re quired years to erect. It is the Ca thedral of Mexico—one of the finest structures on the American continent. I do not propose to describe it now because it deserves to be described in detail; but I will utilize it for the present to give the reader a view of tiie city from its lofty belfry. A din gy looking doorway is reached, near the main entrance. We enter and find ourselves at the foot of a wind ing stairway, constueted in the mas sive wall. L T p this we mount as if ascending the interior of a factory chimney, and the more we climb the less we like it, for the air being rare, our lungs work with tremen dous energy. The summit is reached at last. We are among the Cathe dral bells, some of which weigh many tons and look monsters iu size. The big one under the cupola is not used now, because it is feared that the structure from which it de pends would not stand the shock of its vibrations. But oh, what a grand view we have of the fair city and its surroundings! The valley of Mexi co is before us—the lakes, the plain, the woods, roads, avenues, aqueducts churches and all—set in a superb framework of mountains. Below are the plaza and the courtyards of the palace. Beyond are Chapultepec, with its famous castle; Guadaloupe, with its Church of the Holy Vision, the military school, the citadel or ar senal. We are wrapt in wonder at the beauty of the view, when “bang!” boom!” over our heads go the big bells strking three o’clock in the afternoon. My companion, who is nervous and exhausted by the climb, turns pale, shuts his eyes aud puts his fin ger in his ears, “Bang! boom!” goes the bell, like the roar of a hundred pounder. Another explosion of sound, and I put my hand on the solid masonry of the tower. It ac tually vibrates. No wonder they do not care to strike the big bell in the cupola, for, I believe, if swung too hard it would shake itself off the shaft, or send the tower down into the square. The care-takers and hell ringers live on the cathedral roof, in apartments curiously contrived in tiie maze of masonry there. I reached the ground floor through a series of narrow passages connecting stair ways, but I have not the least idea of tiie plan of these, or where they led to or from. PrnMia wanlH to Buy Railroad*. Special to Enquirer-Sun.] Berlin',February 13.—In the lower house of the Prussian Diet to-day, tiie Minister of Commerce said nego tiations are pending for the purchase of ail the private railways in Prussia. The purchase of all private railways in the Empire was contemplated, but unfortunately the Federal Government did not con cur in the project. Prussia would, however, endeavor to carry out a sys tem of State railways within her territory on the basis of the law of 1876.
