Wonders of the Dead Sea.
Oneoftho most interesting lakes or
inland seas in tbe world is the Dead sea;
\v’ '!i has no visible outlet. It is not
mere fancy .that has clothed tho Dead
sea in gloom, Tbo desolate shores, with
scarcely a green thing in sight, and scat
tered over with black stones and ragged
driftwood, form a fitting frame for tho
dark, sluggish waters, covered with a
perpetual mist,, tujd. breaking in .slow,
heavy, sepulchral toned waves upon the
beaoh. It seems aA if the smoke of the
wicked cities was yet ascending up to
heaven, and as if the moan of their fear
ful sorrow would never leave that God
smitten volley. It is a strange thing to
see those waves, not dancing along and
sparkling in tho sun, as other waves do,
but moving with measured melancholy,
and sending to the ear, as they break
languidly upon the rock, only dolfful
sounds. This is, no doubt, owing to tho
S ;at heaviness of tho water, a fact well
own and which we amply verified in
tho usual way, for, on attempting to
swim, wo went floating about like empty
casks. *
This experiment was more satisfactory
in its progress than in its results, which
were a very unctuous skin and a most
pestiferous stinging of every nerve, as if
wo had been beaten with nettles. Nor
was tbe water we took into our mouth a
whit less vile than the most nauseous
drugs of the apothecary. That fish can
not live in this strong solution of bitumen
and salt is too obvious to need proof;
but to say that birds cannot fly over it
and live is ono of tbo exaggerations of
travelers, who perhaps .were not, liko
ourselves, so fortunate as to seo a flock
of ducks reposing on the water in appar-
Ihealtl ‘

the'life wo did seo. The whole valley
was ono seething caldron, under more
than a tropical sun.—Missionary Herald.
A Cotta Bican Delicacy.
Aside from the scant rations he
tho Vuloro’s food consists mainly of wi
hogs, or such other animals os ho may
ho able to kill, eked out by tortillas, and
as on occasional luxury a dish of red
beans'stowed in fat. Monkeys aro con
sidered the choicest of morceaux, par
ticularly the large red species, which are
as highly relished by the hunters as are
raccoons by southern darkies or Thanks
giving turkeys by New Englanders. < In
deed, in many ports of Spanish America
monkey meat is eaten by both natives
and foreigners, whoso gastronomic tastes
aro harder to pleaso than tlioso of the
hungry Yularocs. I can, myself, testify
to tho fact that a well broiled slice of
young ape, though a trifle tough and
strong, is not more unpalotablo than
bear steak or buffalo meat, which it
greatly resembles. If ono could over
come tho cannibalistic ideas engendered
by Darwinian nonsense, and not feel as if
feeding upon black baby, monkey flesh
would be decidedly preferable to pork as
an article of diet.—Car. Philadelphia

inches in 'length by one and a half in

after using, it was- melted and hast over

“The Indian Bible, Translated by the
Apostle John Eliot.". It was printed in
1868 at Cambridge, in Matlck dialect, a
portion of the type being set by “praying
