As Macmillan suvs: "These excavations are in two separate portions oonneoted by nil arched portal in the solid rock which divides them. The portion which we first enter consists of a series of broad rock steps, 24 in num ber, with rock-cut channels ou either side, lending into two rook-cut cisterns at the farther end. Passing through tire partition portal, we enter a spacious rock-cut court, i>0 feet by 80 feet in ex tent; and at the farther, or west, end we rench the rock-cut portioo admitting to the aotual tombs. Tliese are situated in loculi and ltokim belonging to three square chambers, which are reached through a square vestibule, this in its turn being entered through a low pas sage which was formerly closed by a rolling stone, still to be seen in its grouve.

About tlie tower on the top of Olivet nre some Russian buildings, while upon the side toward Jerusalem, are the Greek Gethsemane aud St. Mary Mag dalen Ohuroh newly built and of ex pensive Russian style.

They certainly are not the sepulchres of the Kings of .Tudnh, who were buried on Mount Zion; but the most generally ac cepted theory now is that they were the family oataoombs of Helena, Queen of Akiabeue, who, becoming a Jewish proselyte, settled in Jerusalem after her Husband’s death in the year A. D. 48. She had a very namcrous family of chil dren and grandchildren, and they were all buried in a place described by Jose phus, and answering accurately to this position." The Tombs of the Judges, of much the same sort, are within easy reach from this point on the road from the City to Neby Samwil. In the valley of the Kedrou to the east of Jerusalem we also had a olose view of the so-called Tomb of Absalom (through a large hole in the side of which the natives fling stones every time they pass by it in ooutompt, so leaviug few stones outside its base); be hind it the Tomb of Jehoshaphat with entrance ohoked up with rubbish, but without connection with Jehoshaphat, who, according to 1 Kgs. 22:59, was buried ou Mt. Zion; further southward the Tomb or Grotto of St. JumeB.a large excavated chamber in the side of the cliff fronted by a porch upheld by two whole and two half oolumns joined by an architravo surmounted by a frieze "With triglyphs and cornice, aud of Dor ic style, ou the traditional spot whero the Apostle was hurled to Ins death in the valley; and the Tomb of Zuchurias, a cubio mouolithio structure cut out of the natural rock and divided from it by a wide passage. Probably all of these are of the Hetodiau or Graeco-Roman period. On the side of the Mount of you are here shown the impress of Christ's right foot turned southward in an oblong marble enclosure. It belongs to the Moslems who hold it as sacred, but Christians are permitted to worship in it on certain days. It stands by Hie side of a Dervish Monastery. The Latin Church of Hie Creed is so styled from the tradition that the apos tles of Christ drew up the Christian Creed on this site. Just baok of this is the Latin Church of Pater Noster.about 82 years old, ereoted by a Frenoh lady (the Priuoess Latour d’Auvergne) and having within it her life-sized memorial effigy, and where a tradition from Cru sading times localizes Christ's toaokiug His disoiples what is known us “The Lord’s Prayer,” more properly “The Prayer of a Disoiple of Christ.” This tradition we know to be absolutely false, for the Sermon ou the Mount, iu which this Prayer appears, waB delivered by our Lord near the Sea of Galilee. The building is well-worth seeing, however, being quite costly and beautiful aud ohoste of deooratiou, aud having paint ings of a high order, witli the words Pater Noster(Onr Father) etc., over the entrance, aud the word “Pater (Fath er)” on the right baud door-post, aud the word “Credo (I Believe)'’ on the left, while ou going in and turning to the left as we proceed around the hand some, quadrangular, covered, inner court we observe thil'ty-two large slabs iu the walls thereof, each bearing the Lord’s Prayer in a different language to the others, as follows—in Arabic.

The finest statement of the whole situation Hint we have seen is flint given in MnomiUnn's Guido, worthy of a wider perusal thau by the travelling public: "Emerging from the city, anil crossing the main road which runs par allel to the northern wall of the city, we see immediately before us, to the right of the Damascus Rond, a remarkably shaped mound with bare limestone cliffs; amt this some believe to he the True Calvary. The following argu ments appear to favor this site: (1) It was undoubtedly outside the oity, yet nigh to it, in our Lord’s time (Matt. 27:- 82; Jno. 19:20;Heb 18;12;cf. also Num. 15:85; 1 Kgs. 21:18; AotsT:58). (2) It stands olose to the junction of the main ronds, the one from south to north, the other from east to west, whore there would bo many casual passers-by (Matt. 27:39; Mk. 15:29). (8) It is still known by Hie .Tews of Jerusalem as the ‘Hill of Execution,’ aud at the east end of it is‘the Place of Stoning.’ (4) It an swers unmistakably to the ‘Plnoe of n Skull’ (Matt. 27:38; Mk. 15:22; LU. 28;88, marg., ,lno. 19:17). It is not so much that the shape of the whole mound resembles that of n skull .'though, ns General Charles George Gordon show ed by the models made from his very oareful survey and measurements, the resemblance is remarkable. It is rather because there is a natural conformation iu the face of the cliff which is exuctly like a skull. The ‘Skull Plaoe’ is a lit tle to the west of the large cave known as ‘Jeremiah's Grotto,’ and nearly ad joins the commencement of the wall wliioh lias been built in front of the en trance to the oave. It is, in fact, be tween the ‘Grotto’ and another conspi cuous cave to the west, immediately be low the brow of the lull. The forehead, eye-sockets, nose-cavity, cheek-bones, mouth and lower jaw are wonderfully clear and distinct; and on either side of the Skull’ the rock lias been rent from top to bottom by a violent earthquake at some distant period, ol' time. (See Matt. 27 ;51.) The best plaoe from which to see the‘Skull’ appear ance on the face of the cliff is from the flat roof of one of the houses in the ele vated portion of the city to the east of the Damascus Gate. But it can he eas ily seen from the road as well, The stoue of which the cliff is composed is nummulitio limestone, one of the least friable stones known to geologists; and there is no reason to think that climatic of other influences have materially changed the appearance of the cliff from Hie days of Christ to the present time. “The summit of the hill is now occupied as a Moslem cemetery, and some people have thought there was a cemetery here in Jew ish days, and that that was another reason for the hill being known as ‘the place of a skull.’ We do not, however, attach much importance to this idea. “The next question is, ‘Where is the Tomb of Arimathaea, in which Jesus Christ was buried?' St. John locates it with tolerable em side of the entrance miah’s Grotto. to Jtre Man’s Mortality.

Or llkt> the morning lo till* day, we can see that the clilf itscll has ,, t . the sun, or like tno shade, been artificially formed into a smooth vertical face, and that at hill is a level the bottom of the hill is a Hoor of the same solid rock. This is ‘The Place of Stoning,' and here, possibly, St. Stephen suffer ed martyrdom. The stoning is generally much misunderstood. The condemned person was brought up to the brow of the hill. His hands were tied behind his back, and he was stationed on the brink with his face towards the precipice. The chief witness then gave him a push, which sent him headlong down on to the rock floor below. As a rule, he would be in stantaneously killed, his bones be ing shattered in all parts of his body. In order, however, to in sure his instant death, the witness es and others leaned over the brow and dropped upon his quivering body large blocks of stone, thus literally pounding him to death, This method of execution explains why the inhabitants of Nazareth took Christ up to ‘the brow of the hill whereon their city was built, that they might cast Him down headlong’ | Lk. 4:29].They thought that Christ had spoken blasphemy and the punishment for blasphemy wasdeath by stoning [Lev. 24:16; 1 Kgs. 21:13; Acts 7:58]. A well- known passage from Christ’s teach ing is also admirably illustrated by the two-told process of the being first thrown down on to the stone courtyard below, and then being pounded to death by the stones from above, speaking of the sin ot blasphemy and its consequences, Jesus says, “Whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken; hut on whomsoever it shall fall it will grind him to powder. [Matt. 21:4]" These are facts worthy of care ful consideration by every intelli gent reader and studunt of the Word of God in the light of the Land, Here we stood under the blue dome of heaven, without the shadow ot superstition and priest craft, and we murmured a hearty “Thank God!” We paid more than one visit to the Garden Tomb un der the Hill of Calvary, glad to be out of sight of the “Crucifix” worn by men, and filled with unspeak able gladness as we thought of the “Cross” whereon Christ died for shock of sinners that sin might he made an end of. Herein “God commend- eth His own love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.. Much more then, being now justified by His blood, shall we he saved from the wrath of God through Him. For if, while we were enemies,we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, be ing reconciled, shall wc be saved by His life.” [Rom. 5:8-io] As we passed out of the garden from the tomb one evening we were con fronted by a great herd of sheep in the narrow avenue, but they only made us think the more of | “The Lamb of God that taketh away the sin of the worid!” [Jno. 1:29, cf.
