iCoiyriaht.)
Betroct, Dec. 23. ISiJ. —We originally
bad set aside six consecutive days for our
stay a: Jet .salem, but on the evening of
the second day after our return fr m Bethie
hem Dr. Talmage gave instructions to begin
the encampment on ihe f allowing morning.
He did this for two reas ns: To avoid
trouble on Sunday, tu whica he is u com
pr mis.ugly o: p sed, and f> improve to the
very best advantage the delightful w c a*her
we were enj y.ag bef re the ra.ny season
should set m. In Palestine the rainy season
lasts tvo months, during which time there
is an unremitting supply of moisture, some
times presaut in t .e form of fine ’■pray, at
other times fading in heavy rain.
Whether in the one form cr
the other, the atmospheric condition
is that of perpetual dampness, making
traveling exceedingly unpleasant. We had
prov.ded ourselves with an abundance of
waterproof garments, and our supply of
boots and shoes was equal to every po-sible
condition (f wea her. At the Mint time
Dr. Talmage ad bis trave’.i g companions
were anxious to make the most of the pleas
ant (lavs prevent to us, net knowing how
much longer they would last. So orders
were issued to prepare camp, as the foiluw
ing day we were to sta-t for the Jordan.
Camping out in tue Holy Land is an ex
perience which will bear description.
Tbe camp is n tas simple an arrange
ment as tbe uninitiated may suppose. In
appearance it is a regular caravan moving
slowly, not faster than three miles an hour,
and rarely l-aveling longer than seven
hours a day. Ti e persons constituting the
members of our camp were, the five in our
party, three of whom were ladies, one
dragoman or guide, one sheik, who was our
protection against Bedouin marauders, a
oook, two wairers and seven muleteers.
Sometimes, but not always, the sheik hail a
Nubian ■ egro to carry his double-barreled
gun, which he always kept h aded and
ready for business. Of animals we had
eight horses, nine mules and five donkeys,
making n all a t taiof eighteen persons and
twenty-two animals. B sides the personal
baggage of the tourists. Consisting of
trunks, valises, etc., toere were in our
camp a comj ieie outfit of b ds and bedding,
five tibhs, ad zen or so of Turkish rugs, a
stove and a full supply f exiting utensils,
an elaborate table service, all requirements
for tbe toilet, a kitchen tent, a saloon tent,
three sleeping tents, ad two smaller tents,
an abundance of provisions, ard anv quan
tity of smaller items too numerous to men
tion.
The camp is divided into two parts, one
travel! g for the accommodation of the
eight-seers, the other to ca er to their ne
oe>3l ties of refreshment and reDOse. Of
these the former is the smaller, c insisting
only of the touris’s themselves, the drago
man, the shrik and two waiters, who carry
wi h them tbe lunch tent. These two di
vis.ons of iLe ca up never move together,
the larger o of them preceding the
tourists in order to make ready for the
night. As soon as ihe partv arrive
at a camping place, after the day's travel,
they dismount and repair to their tenu,
where they find every,hi >g in readiness for
their comfort. Ihe sleeping tents are richly
decorated with Egyi tian needlework, are
carpeted withs ft, thick Turkish rugs laid
on the bare ground, and each contains one
or two iron beadsteads, a table, furniture
lor tbe oilet, can ileaticxs, etc. It prase is
a homelike, tnnuegappearance, tba gen
eral programme for tbe day is about as fol
lows: M ruing call at 6 o’clock. Half an
hour later breakfast, consisting of eegs
arid chops, bread, butter, jam aud coffe*.
At 7 o'clock the mem ers of the
party are on horseback ready for their
journey. After four hour’s ride
we dismount for luncheon, when the luuca
tent is quickly raised, a rug is spread ou
the gr u and, over this is laid a dainty table
cloth, and on this is spr-ad col 1 chicken,
hard-baled eg,;s, sardines, bread, oranges,
nuts, rabins and cheese. The tourist re
cline while they ea and drink in Oriental
fashion, and help themselves to what lies
bef re them on pi ,tes of agate-ware.
Everything served is fresh and of excellent
quality, aud there is plenty of it. While the
tourists are taking their lunch the larger
part of the encampment, which is not
packed in the morning until after the tour
ists have left, passes by and pr ceeds to the
next camping p ace. At 1:30 o’clock travel
is resumed. Three hours more iu the sa Id s,
and one feels ieady for another meal. Even
the most dyspeptic person is willing for
dinner, which happily is invariably a good
one. Excellent hot soup is followed with
roi.st meat and vegetables. Next come
roast fow 1 and salad. Capital pudding is
then served. Nuts, raisi s, oranges, pome
granates, and otter fruits, cheese, and
Turkish coffee end the repast. After diner
a lively bonfire is siarted, around which the
tourists assemble and rehearse the scenes
and incidents of the day. At 9 o’clock the
shoes left in front of the tents for the por
ter to blaekeu are the sure indications that
the weary tourist* have retired for the
night. Pass tie camp at any time of the
night, however, and three figures are seen
to hover around tie campfire. They are a
sbabbily-dre sed guard, it is true, but as
they are armed to the teeth with guns, pis
tols, bowie k ives—in one word, with a
whole arsenal of w eapons—bold indeed must
be the robbers who would dare to attack
these grim-v Rag and warriors. They come
quietly to the camp about 7 o’clock in the
evening, their services raving been secured
from among tbe principal men in the local
ity where the pirtv happens to be, and re
main on duty until the camp is alive with
preparations for the next day’s journey,
when they take their departure as quietly
as they came.
All the attendants in camp are Arabs.
Most of them understand but two English
words, “go and” an i “finish,” this pronounced
feenish. They say “good” when you either
mount or dismount from your horse. Ca
ressingly they pet the animal, and at the
same time throw into their p onunciation
of the word the two meanings: the horse is
a good one; don’t you thing he is a good
one? Your attendant says “feenish” when
you nsk him for something of which the
supply is exhausted. He is a mirthful in
dividual, ad always accompanies liis
declaration with a grin which savs plainly
enough, “You havo already all you can
get. Of oourso it is awkward not
to be able to make your wants and wishes
known by means of language, to the mau
whose bust iss it Is to learn and perform
t. em, but the situation is relieved by his
good nature, which I have found to be con
stant and unchangeable. If you scold him
he takes no offense, because he and >es not un
derstand ono word you utter, and if y>u
bring a whole torrent of objurgations with
the proper accompaniments of gesture and
facial expressi nn bear on him, he still

escapes his lips, however difficult or eve i

not one ft# party ever missed a silnary
a-t cle, and things accidentally in slaid or
fo gotten were brougnl to us by our faith
ful .at lendaat*.
Having returned to Je-u alcm after our
firs: expe-ie ce of camp life, w • visited the
: toner f David, which reac ics hich among
: neighborin; buildings of t e Holv City.
An i rw>n space stands bef re the great
i structure, which is e tered through an
arc way orna neuted wvh pianac.es. .Most
1 . f what was ones the arched sj*oe has been
| built up, aiil one go s t .rouge, a compara
tively small gateway int the bulking,
walking oc a ox seway slightly big -■ r tha i
the st • y street of the space outs me. There
are stairs ou the outside of the great tower,
which lead up half wav to the top. The
remaining sta.rs are inside. Having gained
the t ii'oiis finds a parapet for safety,
and lo ks out upon Jerusalem from a point
of decided ’vantage. The i.isto. y of the
structure is not perfectly known. What of
carp* tery w -r* there is in it is modern.
Evidences of orx by crusaders a:e re
vealed in the masourv, but it may be that
the massive foundation act jail v represents
in part the period of the great ki g. Here,
savs tradition, it was that ho received the
news of Absalom's death. Taking out his
Bible Dr. Talmage read aloud t.e st ry of
how the handsome prices stole the hearts of
the men of Israel, of hisiebellion aud terri
ble fate. A squad of Turkish soldiers,
the tower being used as an arse il, sur
rouuaed the realer as tbe beautiful narra
tive flowed from hi* lip*. We next visited
the wai ing-piaoe of the Jews, where we
found about forty of the faithful waning,
rn a ing and mourning because of the
destruction ct the temple and imploring
Jehovah with impassioned earnest..exs for
its restoration. A number of man, women
ad children were engaged iu chaniiug the
9dtb psalm. So sincere and earnest were
they in their lugubrio. sdevotior s, the tears
c ursiug down their pale cheeks, that Dr.
Talmage said be hioiself felt ilka weeping
with tiiem.
At 1 p. m. the same day we left Jeru
-ale tn, in all probability never to sea it
again. Taking the old road that Christ
and his parents must have taken nearly
two thousand years before, we passed iia
a short time t e extensive workshops of the
Loudon Society for the Conversi m of the
Jew*, which is the m st successful, be
cause the most practical, Christian agen y
e’erat work in Palestine. Gibaab, where
t'.e prophet Samuel lived anl died, aud
Raman, where he was born, were soon
mused, and we came to Bsero h. This is
the place of which it is said that thsrs
the child Jesus was missed by his parents
on the cceasio • of their return trip
from Jerusalem, where they had taken him
at 12 years old, to assume after the custom
of boys of his sge, the responsi iiities of
active mem erslnp iu the Jewi>h church.
Hence they returned to Jerusalem, seeking
him korrowing, to Gad him sitting at th i
feet of the llaarned men who were accus
tomed to instruct Hebrew boys on the occa
sion which bad taken him to the
sacred city. Continuing ou- journey
from tins pint we traveled four
hours longer and then encamped for the
uigut. We rested on the nle tical spot
where Jne >b, lying with stones for his
pillow, saw in his dreams ala Ider set up on
the earth, the top of it reaching to heaven,
and on which angels of God ascended and
descended. 1 pass without and scription the
hill o i which Abraham and Lot are sad to
have divided their camps, when the younger
man made choice of the plain of Jordan as
pasture ground for his cattle. Opbrah is
interest!..g as the birthplace ot the heroic
Gideon. At Shiloh one reflects upon its
Having been, in the days of the judges, the
Jerusalem of the religious world. Therm s
occupy a hill beside a p -or village. A Mo
hammedan mosque, half in ruins, is the
chief feature of the place. Walls of an un
knuwn antiquity show where once were
chambers. Possibly good old Eli lived in a
building of w hich portions of these ruinous
walls wore once a part; nnd it may lave
been so that tee tabernacle itself rested
upon them. Mounts Eoal aud Gerizim were
were i ext visited. Jacob’s well, which is
near Gerizim, "tins mountain,” as our Lord
called tliat large hill, has a gieat stone over
its mouth. The masonry on which
Jesus sat as he talked to the woman
of Famaria, no longer exists, but
the well is still in use at such times as the
supply of water is not cut off by lack of
rain. It is more of a cis era than a well.
For this reason our Lord c mpa red its
water with “living water” spring! ig up. A
hole has been cut through the middle of the
c ivei ing sto e large enough for skin
buckets to ba put down into the well
through it. The well, which is now seventy
five feet deep, was much deeper before
visitors formed the habit of throwing stones
into it to bear the echo caused by their
striking the bottom. Some learned
people suppii se that when Jac ib dug the
we|l it was double the depth it is now, ami
as it is more than seven feet across one cau
form some idea of what were the gifts as
an engineer that characterized the astute
Jacob, and how rich were the resources
which enabled him to carry out his great
plan. Nablous, the ne-v city, was Shecaeru
in very ancient times, and Samaria in our
Lord’s time. It is situated iu a fertile, woli
eatered valley. NVoody growths cover tha
sides of surrouudiug hills, and olive
trees ad irn the scene in tha center
of which it stands in con
siderable beauty, as seen from a
distance. It is quite a manufa -turing town,
that is for the Orient, containing soap aud
olive oil works. Inside it is dirty and ar
chitecturally disappointing. Soma of the
streets are darkened by arches. Tne chief
building in tho town is a mosque, which
was once a christia i church. It was built
by the crusa lera, but now the crescent
triumphs over tne cress. Dr. T tlmage was
interested to inspect au ancient manuscript
of the Pentateuch, aid at Nablous we en
camped for the night. Louis Klopsch.
DISCOVERY IN TRINIDAD.
New Fiber Plant Which Prom'ses to
be an Improvement on Ramie.
Yrom the New York Herald.
Port of Spain, Trinidad, Jan. 18.—A
new fiber plant lias just been discovered
here by an agriculturist named T. J. St.
Hill, who has called it “malihltine," but
whose scientific nomenclature is Abutilon
periplocif oliuin. The groat thing with this
plant is that the ribbons at nearly all times
of the year are easily detached from the
wooden portion by simply stripping them
with the hand, and therefore a decorticat
ing machine is not required, as for ramie.
When it is known how readily the stems
allow themselves to be deprived of their
coating o bark and fiber, it will be seen
what an advantage this sample fact gives
the new product over many of the fiber
producing plants. All that is required is to
cut the stems, which are iully ten feet long,
split the bark at the larger end aud strip
off the bark from end to end without
stopping, as fortunately the stems have no
side branches.
Samples submitted to London brokers
were moat favorably report* i on, aud were
value lat from £l7 to £2O per ton. This is
a magnificent remit, especially when it is
consi i -red how eauly the decortication of
the s eins can be carried out, and on that
account the plant will take preference to
many others as a fiber-producing medium.
The plant is a native of Trinidad and
other West Indian islands, and this fact
proves, as was remarked ny the government
botanist, that we pocibly have at our doors
many a valuable product, while we aro en
deavoring t i find new ones at the utter
most end* of the earth. Ramie, even when
decorticated, is not worth much now, and
will probably be beaten by this new fiber
when cultivators fuliy realizo the greater
oase and consequently less expense with
which it can be decorticated.
