THE APPLE OF THE DEAD SEA.
The following is an extract from
Curzon. He marie a somewhat
singular discovery when travelling
among the mountains to the east of
the Dead Sea, where the ruins of
Ammon, Jerash, and Adjeloun well
repay the labor and fatigue encoun
tered in visiting them : “It was a
remarkable hot and sultry day ; we
were scrambling up the mountain,
through a thick jungle of bushes ar>d
jmv trees, which rises above the
east shore of the Dead Sea, when
1 saw before me a fine plum tree,
loaded with fresh blooming plums.
] cried to my fellow traveller, ‘Now,
then, who will arrive first at the
plum tree?’, and as he caught a
glimpse of so refreshing an object,
we both pressed our horses into a
gallop to see who would get the first
plum from the branches. We both
arrived at the same moment, and
snatching at a fine ripe pium, put
it at once into our mouths, when, on
biting it, instead of the cool delicious
jucy fruit which we expected, our
mouths were filled with a dry, bitter
dust, and we sat under the tree upon
our horses sputtering and hemming,
and doing all we could to be re
lieved of the nauseous taste of this
strange fruit. We then perceived,
and to my great delight, that we
bad discovered the famous Apple
of tbe Dead Sea, the existence of
which has been doubted and can
vassed since the days of Strabo and
Pliny, who first described it. Many
travellers have given descriptions
of. other vegetable productions,
which have some analogy to the one
described by Pliny; but up to this
lime no one had met with the thing
itself, either upon the spot mention
ed by the ancient authors or else
where. 1 brought several of them
to England ; they area kind of nut
gall. 1 found others afterwards
on the plains of Troy; but there
can be no doubt whatever that this
is the Apple of Sodom, to which
Strabo and Pliny referred. Surel\
if the traveller, who found what he
considered to be the ‘Apple of
Sodom,’ bad been a botanist, he
would have been able to have told
us more about the fruit than that it
was a kind of nutgall. Has it been
ascertained what plant it is that
bears such apples?”— Gardener's
Chronicle.
Well Turned. —A discussion late
ly .arose at a dinner upon the basis
of the right of suffrage, when the
following colloquy took place :
“I do not think,” said one of the
party, that all men should indis
criminately be permitted to vote.
There must be some restriction ;
and if you tear away all barriers,
you may as well extend the privi
lege still further, and admit woman
to the polls.
“Woman!” quickly responded a
spirited lady on the opposite side of
the table, “and why should women
not vote? Do you mean to say we
are inferior to the other sex ?”
“By no means, madam. The
ladies, I admit, have their
tual powers as vivid, and as well
cultivated as those who have
sumed the title of lords of creatioJ|
but then I like to see them in their
proper sphere.”
“Their proper sphere! And
pray, sir, permit me to ask what
do you deem their proper sphere ?”
“Why, madam, the sphere of
woman is a—it is a, celestial
sphere /”
The World's Fair in ISs2.—Ac
counts from Washington state that it
has been decided that the great Ex
position of the Industry of Nations
shall be held at New York in 1852,
and Government has granted the
use of Governor’s Island, in the
harbor of that city, for the purpose ;
a place which combines all the ad
vantages requisite, being beautiful
ly situated, and easy of access
from the Battery.
“ The animal” said an itinerant
showman, “is the royal African
hyena, measuring fourteen feet from
the tip of his nose to the end of his
tail, and the same distance back
again, making in all twentyfeet.
He erres in the woods in the night
seasons, like a human being in dis
tress, and then devours all those
who come to his assistance—a sad
instance of the depravity of human
nature !”
“Julius, why didn’t you oblong
your stay at de Springs?”
“Case, Mr. Snow, dey charged
100 much.”
“How so, Julius?”
“Why, de Landlord charged dis
colored indiwidual vvid stealing de
tea spoons, and as I was afraid he
might get personal, I perambulated
to de cars and walked home.”
y
Dold says the difference between
courting a girl and an old maid, is
just the difference between eating a
plump, j u i C y grape, and a shriveled
U P raisin. Broomsticks for four
and broken heads for one.
“Well, farmer, you told us your
wood was a good place for hunting,
now. we’ve tramped it for three
hours, and found no game.” “Just
so —well I calculate as a geribral
thing, the less game there is, the
more hunting you have.”
In 1774, an apparently deserted
ship was met in the polar sea,
encumbered with snow and ice. On
boarding her, a solitary man was
found in the habin, his fingers hold
ing a pen, while before him laid
the record which he had traced
twelve years before. No appear
ance of decay was visible, except
a little green mould upon his fore
head.
Conversation. —Talk not of music
to a physician, nor of medicine to
a fiddler; unless the fiddler should
be sick, and the physician at a con
cert. He that speaks only of such
subjects as are familiar to himself
treats the company as the stork did
the fox, presenting an entertain
ment to him in a deep pitcher, out
of which no creature could feed but
a long-billed fowl.— Jones of Nay
land.
It is a foolish idea to suppose that
we must lie down and die, because
we are old. Who is old ? Not
tbe man of energy ; not the day
laborer in science, art, or benevo
lence; but he only who suffers his
energies to waste away, and the
strings of life to become motion
less ; on whose hand the hours
drag heavily, and to whom all things
wear the garb of gloom.
The statistics of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, North, for 1850,
show the following results—4,l29
travelling preachers,s,42o local do.,
ar.d 689,982 members, bein£r an in
crease as compared with the previ
ous year of 148 travelling, and 289
local preachers, and 26,378 mem
bers.
Misemployed Time. —The mania
for music injures the health and
curtails the existence of thousands
and lens ul thousands ot the fair sex,
by the sedentary habits which it en
joins, and the morbid sympathies
which it engenders.— The Economy of
Health.
In England, an old lady who
had been deaf for eight years, recov
ered her hearing by her first trip on
the railroad. The noise of tbe
train passing under the bridge,
‘caused something in her ear to
give way,’ and she recovered her
hearing.
Woman’s love is a good deal like
cammomile—the more it’s trod on,
the faster it grows. To give a girl
“airs,” we know ot nothing worse
than too ardent attachment. A
little water makes some fires burn
the faster.
“Say Uncle Ben, what sort o’ ani
mals are them ’ere punkins that are
all over black, a ’most blue and a
reddish?” “Then, Jonathun, Well,
I swan, I should like to see one on’
em hatched, to see what sort o’ crit
ters wegetables am.”
V _r “
The Height of Fancy. —To buy a
glass of wine for three cents, and
still imagine there is a grapy flavor
about it.
Speckles says he is a firm belie
ver in dreams, for he once dreampt
that he was flayed alive, and the
very next morning he had a suit
in Chancery commenced against
him.
Hint for the Invalid. —A new-laid
egg, broken into a cup of tea,
coflee, or chocalate, and well-beaten
up, is an excellent ingredient in the
break last of a person having a de
ficient appetile, and will be found
very substantial.
Expressing Families. —The United
States and California Express Com
pany has been established, to take
to the gold region the families of
those residing there. The com
pany was established at San Fran
cisco.
Experience is a torch, lighted in
the ashes of our illusions.
Cotton batting, spread very thin
over the young plants will shield
them from depredations.
In the Garden of Olives, at
Jersualem, eight olive trees are now
standing, which are proved by
historical documents to have been
there anterior to the taking of the
city by the Turks, and must conse
quently be at least eight hundred
years old.
The following was made in honor
of the marriage ofSamuel Partridge
of Pittsfield, to MissSophiaChase:—
How now ? the Patridge runs a race,
Secures his prize, and wins the Chase,
And in return the Chase, ’tis guess’d,
Has caught the Patridge in its nest.
A teacher one day, endeavoring
to make a pupil understand the na
ture and application of a passive
verb, said: “A passive verb is tbe
expressive of receiving an action,
as Peter is beaten. Now what did
Peter do?” “ Well, 1 don’t know,”
said the boy, pausing a moment,
with the gravest countenance imag
inable, “ without he hollered.”
An old lady had ari unaccount
able aversion to rye, and never could
eat it in any foirn, till of late they
have got, she said, to making it into
whiskey, and I find I can, now’ and
then, worry down a little.
