The Centre of Many Sacredmud Histori- cal Association. Wilde my two days’ fxptl‘ifnjcss at the “'11on my NA‘ mm novéf and picturesque, and enable obtain an unusual insight into the and customs and 1x llgious observam Druse nation, my stay at this shrit pilgrimage was by no means de: archmologicxl interest. The v Hattin, which is in Lhe immediate hood of the tomb of the plophet, centre of many sacral and hiatoricz tions, while it is in itself a place 0: beauty of situation. In the overhanging rocks on the othex side of the gorge, immediately opposite my tent, were several sepulchral chambers, 11.1 traditional burying-places of people more 0' less historieal. Some of thesg I examined The largest was one entered by a doorway, which had recently been inhabited, for the iramework or a wooden door to it still re- mained, it was supposed to be the burial- place of one of Jethro’s daughters. We are told by Josephus that his family foilovvcd the Iaraelities, out of Midian. It’s last 0:- cupant was an Indian hermit. who had lived here in solitude for three years, when, getting tired of his seclusion, he had gone to Tiberius about a year ago, married there,and immediately disappeared with his wife no one knew whither. About a hundred yard from the Nehy there issues from the mouth of the gorge a copious spring, which in fact forms the course of abrook that ultimately finds its way into the Sea of Galilee. It commences its beneficent course, however, by fertilizing a. large area immediately surrounding the village,where flourishing gardens of orangesl lemons,‘ figs, apricots, pomegranates, and other fruit trees impart an air of luxuriant fertility to the landscape not common in these parts. Among these gardens is one which was purchased a few years age by Sir Moses Montefiore and presented by him to the Jews 0! Tiberias. Here I went at the invitation of the overseer, and, seated on mats under the sprcading arms of a fig tree, I listened, while I sipped my coflee, to his tale ; andrthen I went in search of ruins. I found some immediately adjoining the garden. What had evrdently once loaned part of an old B5 zantine church was here turned into a mosque ; and upon one of the stones was a curious Cufic inscription. In some of the other gardens were traces of foundations, indicating that in old times Hattin must have been the site of a. consider able town. It is about two miles from the ruins of Irbid (which is no doubt the Arbela. of Josephus) and is probably the Caphar Hittia of the Talmud, but I find no mention of the Hattin ruins in the memoirs of the Palestine exploration fund. nor of the Cuflc inscription which I found. The way to Irbid lies acrtss the plain, on which, a collection of seven basalt stones in a ring are called the “Hajarct en Nusara,” or “stones of.the Christians," because tradition has it that it was here that Christ performed the mira- cle of the seven loavesand two fishes. The plain was now waiving with grain, nor would it be possible t) imagine a more fertile or luxuriant Lp'and. On its margin, where it breaks 0E abrup l] n'n the mar- velous gorge of El Hamam, Wltn I’LB preci- pitous sides rising 1,200 feet sheer up from the little strewn which which trickles at their base, are the ruins of Irbid, interesting as containing the remains of the oldest Jewish synagogue prublbly to be found in Palestine. The steep hillside which slopes down to the edge of the clifl' is very rocky, and numerous sarcophagi are lat‘Vud on the sur- faces of the natural slabs. The largest measures from 51x feet to six feel- five in ches long and one {not No inches deep, being round at the head and square at we foot. which is slightly dkeper. There was a ledge cut round to receive the a‘on: cover.°and a channel made to keep the surface water from Iunning in. They ware of all sizes. some, evidently, for small children and babies. But the most remarkable tomb was one which opened out of A DEEP ROCK-CUT CHAMBER, which appeared to have been in connec~ ticn with a Wine prezs. The ante-chamber formed a sunk court, about twentvieet by ten, and contained a. sarcophagus. It opened into a. tomb containing six loculi. My guide was the Jew who had entertained me in the garden, and who was well versed in local traditions. He informed me that here were supposed to be buried four of the sons of Jacob, he did not know which, and Jochahed and Dinah. He also pointed out to me the tomb of the Rabbi Nitai, who was supposed to have built the synagogue I had been examin- ing, and who was a native of the place, and lived about 200 years B.C.; also a mound of stones covering apparently a rock tomb. which he declared was the burial place of Seth, the [on of Adam; but, although from much habit I am accustomed to swallow a fair amount of traditional information. I was unable to push my credulity thus far. It is described, however, by the Abbe Gersson. A. D. 1561, as being in a. cave with a spring to which a flight of steps led down. The tombs of Zereh and Zephaniah were also pointed out. Indeed there are few places in Palestine where in the same limited area such a number of distinguished personages of sacred history are buried as in the neighborhood of Arbela or Irbid. I do not now include the tumbs of the numer- ous rabbis whom the Jews hold sacred. If it has a character for sanctity, it must at one time have had a reputation for strength. From it’s position it must always have been a military stronghold. Josephus tells us. in his Life, that when he was governor of Galilee he fortified it, and laid up stores of grain here ; and it is without doubt the Cassie Ardelle of the Teutonic knights (1250 A. D.), the D. being an error for B, as it is mentioned in connection with Tiberias and Began. b9th places not verv distant. The only biblical reference to this place is that made by Hosea, when he says: “Therefore shall a tumult arise among thy people; all thy fortresses shall be spoiled as Shahnnn spoiled Beth~Arbel in the day of battle.” As we stand here we can almost look into the caverns with which the face of the opposite clifl" is perforated, while the one on the edge of which we stand is LITERALLY HONEYCOMBED with these subterranean abodes. They are of immense extent, and are placed over each other in diflerent stories ; some are walled up, leaving doors and windows. Some idea of the extent of this singular natural fest- ness may be formed from. the fact that it is capable of containing 51: thousand men. The caves communicate wih each other by Shaih were 1 11d pictureqqpe AMONG THE DRUS ES. oi the ptophet, Iorms me are! and hwtorical associa- n itself a place of unusual :the .s shrine of their ns destitute of [‘he village of sdiate neighbor- phet, forms the all subterranen galleries. These are the forti- fied cavelns ment:oned by Josephus in con- nection with Arbela. Rachides, the general of Demetrius. the third king of Syria, when he invaded Palestine, encamped at Arbeal and subdued those who had taken refugelin the caves. This event is narrated in Mac- cabees, where the caves are called “stories.” It was here, also, that Herod the Great had his famous fight with the robbers who had made their dens in the caves, letting down I was determined to push my explorations to the summits of the rocky crests iwbich frowned above, and are called the Horns of Hattin. Scrambling up the steep, recky hill- sides. we found ourselves at last obliged to leave our horses and make our way on foot over the huge blocks of basalt which are thickly strewn around these singular peaks. 0n reaching the top We lound that they had been artificiallylsuperimposed one on the top of another, so as 1.0 form a rocky rampnrr of immense solidity. Both crests had. at some period of remote antiquity, been thus fortified. Beneath one of them weie the lonndation and ruins of an ancient town which the inhabitants call “Medinct e1 In- weileb,” or “the ruins of the long tower.” At the southeast of the hill is an oblong cavern cut in the rock and cased with cement, which may formerly have been a. cistern; and not far from it are the foundations oi a building which the natives say was a Christian church before the conquest of the country by the Moham- medans, who subsequently converted it into a mosque. Nothing could be more striking than the view from the summit of the high- est horn. Immediately beneath us, some six or seven hundred feet below, I looked down into the glocmv gorge, with the white walls of the Neby Shaib contrasting with the black basalt rocks, its terraces covered with groups of brightly costumed Druses- their songs as they danced in circles reach, ing us on the still air of evening. and beyond the modern village of Hattin, surrounded by orange groves and fruit gardens of the most brilliant green. Stretching away on all other sides were uplands of waiving grain, till they either sunk away into valleys or terminated at the base of hills which rose abruptly above them, To the northeast the precipitous sides of the Wady Eamam, honeycombed with caves, formed a vista through which appeared in the distance a green strip of the plain of Gennesareth; beyond it the waters of the sea of Galilee. seventeen hundred feet below us, gleamed in the setting sun. From its eastern margin rose the steep clifl's above which is the vast plateau of J aulan, once the grazing lands of the flocks and herds of Job, while a line 01 conical volcanic peaks, backed by snow-clad Hermon, closed the prospect.â€"C’or.

A murky. threaten- ing sky excueu some remarks, but as simil- ar cloud effects had clustered around the distant hilltOps for several days without bringing the much-needed rain no particular apprehension was ielt. At "Glen Eyrie” the lord turned a“raptly, making an ascent up the side of what t) our Chicago residents was quite asleep hill, the road being cut ahelvmq out of the hillside. Away to the south, Where the mysterious beauty of the gateway to the “Garden of the Gods" loom- ed up in its silent majesty. a cloud of whirl- ing crust was observed and commented on, but no suspicion of what it ’portended en- tered. the minds of our uninitiated novices. With many an exclamation of delight at the extreme loveliness of the valley view, backed by the gardens of the “Rockies,” and with many a jest and a laugh, the ptrty rode gayly up the ascent, when just on the summit of the hill, on the brow of the preci~ pice, a terrific wind struck them. \Vith the natural instinct of facing a. foe, the equestrians turned and headed their horses to the hurricane ; but the ladies in the buggy being in the rear and the buggy-top affording the greatest resistance to the wind. they realized at once their danger and sprang at once from the vehicle just in time to bid adieu to hats, handkerchiefs, dust- srs, wraps, etc, which soon sought a. more sheltered locality in the valley below. Mr. Hall, bareheaded and hlmOst blinded by the fury of the gale, sprang from his hbrse. and just succeeded in catching the frightened animal in time to prevent his prefipitating himself and the buggy after the other port- able property. Grasping him with one hand and his ownâ€"an excitable, nervous horseâ€"with the other, he succeeded in forc- ing them away from the brow of the hill. Nob number Pill shall go down my throat ngnln.

The little mountain pony Gracie Hall rode seemed to take it all as a matter of course, and halted stubbornly in the most dangerous spot ;of_all, browsing contentedly, while the child was apparent- ly in the greatest danger. The violence of the storm increased steadily for about ten minutes, during which the little party push- ed forward to a safe spot, all having dis- mounted. Fortunately the horses behaved well, standing firmly, though evidently frightened, or we might have had something more serious to chronicle than a severe fright. Soona brisk shower of hail added to their discomfort, as by this time all heads were here, the remaining hats having gayly cavorted over into the valley. The rain and hail fall brought a slight abatement of the wind. and Mr. Hall led the procession, by this time a very draggled and woe-begone looking company, down the hill to "Glen Eyrie,” where a. kind welcome and refreshments were received. A ROCKY MOUNTAIN STORM. A Peculiar SExperlence. Jso, that Herod the Great had ht with the robbers who had £1.13 in the caves, letting down baskets, and fighting them in 'Ther: are s,/ma curious aneciotes about Napoleon 111‘ in the "Sruveuirs of Com piegne” recently pub!iahed by "Sylvanecte." who appcars to have been one of the Legiti- miat neighbours of the Emperor in that vicinity of Compiegne iorest. One says that Napoleon‘s fascination for Mademoiselle de Montijo, who afterwards became the Ein- press Eugenie, dated from the time when press that press Eugenie, dated Irom the time when that sprightly beauty gave him a sharp horse-Whipping. Tne Emperor had invited Midemoiselle de Mrntijo and her mother to Compiegne, and showed them much atten rim at hunting parties. One evening. when the hunt came home late. Napoleon so en- raged the beauty that she caught up her riding-whip and gave it to him over the bed and ears This soon brought about an explanation. and in course of time came the famous letter in which Napoleon expressed hia desire to have Mademoiselle Eugenie to wifeâ€"alettsr which the mother lost no time in making public, and which is now religi- ously preserved in the archives of the fam- ily at Madrid. According to “Sylvanecte,” the future Empress was much persecuted by Napoleon before he made her his proposal of marriage, and it is related t that on one occasion he was so enraged because would not grant him a rendezvousâ€"a for While they were out ridingâ€"that he spurs to his horse and gallopad away. 1 ing her to find her way home throng} forest as best she could.

The severe style of house‘ order neatnes: seldom leaves much margin for intellectual culture; a simpler style of living and house-furnishing would set many a bonded slave at liberty, and add vastly to the comforts of all the household.

Catarrhâ€"A New Treatment. Perhaps the most extrarordinary success that has been achieved in modern science has been attained by the Dixon Treatment of catarrh. Out of 2.000 Patients treated dnrin the past six months, ully ninety per cent. ave been cured of this stubborn malady. This is none the less startling when it is remembered that not five per cent. of the patients presenting themselves to the regular practitioner are benefltted, While the patent medicines and other advertised cures never record a cure at all. Starting with the claim now generally be- lieved by the most scientific men that the disease is due to the presence of living parasites in the tissues. Mr. Dix. on at once adapted his cure to their extermination ; this accomplished the catarrh is practically cured, and the permanency is un- questioned. as cures effected by him four years ago are cures still. No one else has ever at- tempted to cure catarrh in this manner, and no other treatment has ever cured catarrh. The application of the remedy is simple and can be done at home. and the gresent season of the year is the most tavora 1e for a speedy and permanent cure. the majority of cases being cured at one treatment.
