Hlr William Iikr, th1 laiuo:isexilorer nhd Kcbrapher, did w ;li for Ceylon after his eltflit years' r si denc-j In Ibis tslind, and Professor Ernst Heeke), the professor from Jena, did w ll wiieu he swept these waters and ru nma' d th-se hil s and took home for future Inspection the in.seetS of this tropical 'tir. And foreVer honorel be ich work, but let all that is sweet in riiythm iin l graphic on canvas uud impoiini;in mon ument and immortal in memory be brought to tell the deeds of those who were heroes and heroines for Christ's sake. Many scholars bavo supposed that this isl and of Ceylon was the original gnrden of )Men where the strike first appeared on rep tilian mission. There are reasons for belief that this was the site where the first home plead was opened Rnd destroyed. It is so near the rrpiator that there are not more than twelve degrees 01 Fahrenheit dilT;r euee all the year round. IVrpetuil foliage, perpetu tl Iruit nnd all styles of auiniil iifu prosper. Wlint luxuriance nnl abundance and superabundance of life ! What styles of plumage do not the birds f port ! What styles of S 'ale lo not the llslies reveal I What styles of soii do not the groves have in thoir lii-retio ! Hero on the roadside and clear out on tho bench of the sea stands tho cocoanut truo saying: "Take my leaves for shade. Take the juleo of my fruit for delectable drink. Take my saccharine for sugar. Take my fiber for the cordage of your ships. Take my oil to kindle your lamps. Take my woo 1 to fashion your cups and pitcher?. Take my leave3 lo thatch your roofs. Take my eir.ooth surface on which to print your 1 ooks. Take my 3!),IJO0,(j00 tree9 covering 500,000 acres and with the exportation enrich the world. I will wave in your fans and spread abroad in your umbrellas. I will vibrate in your musical Instruments. I will bo the scrubbing brushes on your floors." Hero nlso stands the palm troo saying : "I nm at your disposal. With these arms I fed your ancestors 150 years ago, and with these same arms I will food your descend ants 150 years from now. I defy the cen turies !" Here also stands the nutmeg tree saying : "I am ready to spice your beverages and en rich your puddings and with my swoit dust make insipid things palatable." Here also stands the coiTeo plant saying ! "With the liquid boiled from my berry I itlmulnte the nations morning by morning." H-ro also stands the tea plant saying: "With the liquid boiled from my leaf I soothe the world's nerves and stimulate the world's conversation evening by evening." Here stands the cinchona saying: "I am the foe of malaria. In all climates my bit terness is the slaughter of lovers." What miracles of productiveness on these islands ! Enough sugar to sweeten all tho world's beverages, enough bananas to pile all the world's fruit baskets, enough rice to mix all the world's puddings, enough cocoa nut to powder all the world's cakes, enough flowers to garland all the world's beauty. 15ut in the evening, riding through a cin namon grove, I flrst tastod the leaves and bark of that condiment so valuable nnd delicato that transported on ships the aroma of the cinnamon is dispelled if place 1 near a rival bark. Of such great value is the cin namon shrub that years ago thoso who in jured It In Ceylon were put to death. But that which onoo was a jungle of cinnamon is now a park ot gentlemen's residences. Tho long, white dwelling hous-s are bounded with this shrub, and all other styles of growth congregated there make a botanica garden. I'oves called cinnamon doves hop among the branches, and crows, more pootically styled ravens, which never could sing, but think they can, fly across the road giving full test of their vocables. Birds which learned their chanting under the very eaves of heaven overpower all with their grand inarch of the tropics. The hi'jiscus dapples the scene with its scarlet clusters. All shades of brown and emerald and saffron and brill lanco ; melons, limes, magnosteens, custard apples, guavas, pineapples, jasmine so laden with aromi they have to hold fast to tho wall, and begonias, glorlosas on lire and orchids so delicato other lands must keep them under conservatory, but here defiant t all weather, and flowers more or less akin to azaleas and honeysuckles and floxes and fuchsias and chrysanthemums ana mono dendrons and foxgloves and pansles which lye the plains and mountains of Ceylon witn heaven. The evening hour burns incense of all styles of aromatic. The convolvulus, blaa as If tne SKy nai iauen, am uuueriue spangling the air, and arras 01 tree3 sieeve i with blossoms, and rocks upholstered of moss, commingling sounds and sights and o.lors until eye and ear and nostrils vie with each other as to which sense snail open ma door to the most enchantment. A struggle between muslo and perfume and iridescence. Oleanders reeliui? in intoxication 01 coior. Great banyan trees that have been changing their minds for ceuturles, "acta century car- ivinu out a new plan of growth, attractoa our attention and saw us pass in tne year 01 ls'll us th?v saw oass the venerations 01 1794 and 1614- Colombo is so thoroughly embowered in foliage that If you go into one of Its towers and look down upon the city of 130,000 people you cannot see a house. Oh. tho trees of Ceylon ! Slay you live to De hold the morning climbing down through their branches or the evening tipping their leaves with amber and gold ! I torsive the Buddhist for the worship of trees until they know of the Ood who made the tre. I wonder not that there are some trees In Cey lon called sacred. To me all trees are sacred. I wonder not that before one of them they burn camphor flower and hann lamps around Its branches and iw.wu peo ple each year make pilgrimage to that tree. Worship something man must, and, until no hair of the only lieing wortnv 01 worsmp whit so elevating as a tree ! What glory en tbroned amid its foliage! What a majestic doxology spreads out in its branches ! What a voice when the tempests pass through it ! How it looks down upon the cradle and the grave of centuries ! As the fruit of one Ireo unlawfully eaten struct tne race w;tn wo-s and tho uplifting of another tree brings peace to the soul, let the woodman spare the tree and all nations honor It. if, through higher teaching, we do not, like the Ceylon ese. worship it ! How consolatory that when we no more walk nn ier the tree branches on earth we may see the "Iree of life which tears twelve manner of fruit anl yiells her fruit every month, anl the leaves of the tree are for the healinsr of the nations !" Two processions I saw in Ceylon within one hour, the first led by a Hindoo priest, huge pot of flowers on his bead, tats face di: figured with bcly lacerations anl his un 1 washed followers beating as many discords from wnat are supposed to be musical m struments as at ore time can be laduce-J to rtter tho hilmaa ear. The profession taaltei at the door of tho huln. The ocrupants viiu t-ut an-i ma'ie ooetsance an 1 presented small contrltntions. In rHorn therefor the priest sprinkled nibe upon the children wcocame forwarl, this evidently a form of benelictlon. Then the procession, led on by the priest, (started a?.iin. More nols, ir.ore ashes, more genu3ctIon. However n one's sense of the ludicrous, Leeottld Bad nothing to excite even asmlleiri th moverm-nti of RicH a proctlon; Meftnir' oppressive, qa did, filthy, Sad. Returning to our carriage, we rode on for a few moments, nnl we came on another prosion, a kin ily lady leading erortps of native children, all clean, bright, happy, laughing. They were aChr sti.in i-chool out for ex"rei3". There s-emed as muh Intellt g'nee, refinement and happiness in that reg iment of yooag Cinzalcs-j a yoT would flo I in the rnks of any youn U liV sminsry ling hap-ronel ou th-ir afternoon walk through r cntral Parkt New York; or Hyile' Prfrk, London. The Hiudoo procession il lus'r.tte l on a small SMle something Of what Hindooism e.ui do for the world; The Chris tian pr-ce9sfon illu4'.rats ort a small scale Bom t!dng of what Christianity can do for the world. But tl.osa two proceatdons were on y fragments of two great processions ever iijarchluk' across oar worM. the procession Htel cf superstition and the procession Lk?'d of gospel light. I saw them In one aternoon in (V) Ion. They are t be seen In all rt-itiofcS. Nothing is oT more thrilling Interest thin the Christian achievements in this island. The F.pipcop il churc'i was here the national church, but discta'di-hrnent has taken place, an 1 since Mr. Gladstone's accomplishment of Irmt fact in H-fl a'l denomlnatiot?! are on tqu.-il platrorm. ; ui all are doing migltty work. America, is second 10 no other nation in what hfis been done for Ceylon. Since 1316 she has Lad li-r religioiis agents 1 ri th J iflna penin-ula "t Ceylon. The p:iuld iiigs, the Howlands, the Drs.

The Americn mH'si'laat-ies in Cylon hate, given special attention to niedltfal in struction and are doing won b-rs in driving back the horrcrsof heathen surgery. Cases of suffering were formerly givn ovcT to the levil worshioers an 1 such tortures inflicted as m ly not be described. The patient was rample 1 by the feet of the medical atten- lants. It is only of Oo l's mercy that thre livin;; mother in Ceylon. Ob. how muc!i Ceylon n:eds doctors, anl the mo li- il class s of native st u bun un ler tho care of those who follow tho ex tuible of the la'.o Samuel Fish Green are providing them, so hat all the alleviations and kindly mints, riea and scientific acumen that jan be found n Amcri' au aud English h09pital3 will soon lees all Ceylon. In that island are thirly-two American chool, 210 Churc'i of England schools, 231 Wesleyan schools, 2.14 Roman Catholic schools. Ah, the schools decide most every thing! How engggi stive the incident thai ametomein Oeylon. In a school under he care of the Episcopal church two boys were converted to Christ and were to be nptizjd. An intelligent Buddist boy said n the school. 'Let all the boys on Buddha's ide come to this part of tho room and all he boys on Christ's side go to the other part of the room." All the boys except two went on Buddha s side, and when the two boys who were to be uptized were scoTed at and derided one of them yielded and retired to Buddha's side. ut afterward that boy was sorry that he hail yielded lo the persecution, and when the day of baptism came stood up beside the oy who remained Ilrm. Koine one said to the boy who had vacillatod in his choice be- ween Buddha and Christ, "lou aro a coward and not lit for either side," but he replied, "1 was overcome of temptation, but I repent nnd believe. Then botn boys were nptize.l, and from that time the Angelican mission moved on more and more vigorously. I will not say which of all the denomina- 10ns of Christians is doing the most for the evangelization of that island, but know this Ceylon will be taken for Christ! Sing Bishop Heber s hymn : What though the spicy breozcg Blow soft over Ceylon's isle I Among the first places I visited was a Eu ldbist college, about 100 men studying to become priests gathered around the teachers. Stepping into the building where the high priest was instructing the class, we were apolegctic and told him we were Americans and would like to see his mode of teaching if he had no objections, whereupon he be gan, doubled up as ho was on a lounge, with his right band playing wltn his foot. In his left hand he held a package of bamboo eaves, on whlon were written the words of the lesson, each student holding n similar package of bamboo leaves. The high priest llrst read, and then one of his students read. A group of as finely formed young men as I ever saw surrounded the instructor. The ast word of each sentence was intoned. There was In the whole scene an earnestness which impressed me. Not able to under stand a word of what was said, there is a book of language and intonation that is the same among all races. That the Buddhists have full faith in their religion no one can doubt. That is, in their opinion, the way to heaven. What Mohammed is to the Mo- lammedan, and what Christ Is to the Chris tian, Buddha is to the Buddhist. We wait ed for a pause in the re jitntion, and thea expressing our thanks retired. Nearby is a Buddhist temple, on the altar of which before the image of Buddha are of ferings of flowers. As night was coming ou wo came up to a Hindoo temple. First we were prohibited going farther than the out side steps, but we gradually advanced until we could seo all that was going on insido. The worshipers wero making obeisance. Tne amtams were wildly beaten, and shrill pipes were blown, and several other Instruments were in full bang and blare, anl t hero was an indescribable hubbub and the most labor ious style of worship I had ever seen or hoard. The dim lights, and the jargon, and the glooms, and the Milting figures mingled for eye and ear a horror wuica it is iiimcuit to shake olf. All this was only suggestive or what would there transpire after the toilers of the day had ceased work iid hail time to appear at the temple. That such things should bo supposes to pieas ine horn or have any power to console or hebtthe wor shipers is only another mystery inthis world of mysteries. But came away saddened with the spectacle, a sadness wmcn mi not leave us until w arrived at a place wnere a Christian missionary was preaching in the street to a group of natives. I had that morning expressed a wisa to witness such a scene, nnd here it was. Stand ing on nn elevation, the good man w.is ad- lressing the crow 1. All was attention ana silence and reverence. A religion of rellet and joy was being commended, an I the dusky faces were illumined witn the sentiments 01 pacification and re-cnforcement. H was the rose of Sharon after walking among nettles. It was the morning light after a thick dark- nes. It was the gospel after Hindooism. 1 But passing up and down the streets of Ceylon yon Had all styles of people within live minute-; Afghans.

The most interesting thing 011 earth is the hu man rac. and specimens of all branches of it confront you in Ceylon. The island of the present is aquiet anl inconspicuous nffdr compared with what it once was. Thedad citb s of Ceylon w re larger and more im posing than are the living cities. On this island nre dead New Yorks and dead Tek ings and dead E linburgbs and dead Lon dons. Ever and anon at the stroke of the archppoglisi'a hammer the tomb of some great municipality fli-s open, and there are other buried cities that will yet respond to the exp'orer's pickax. The Pomped and nereulaneum under neath Italy are small compared with the Tompeiis and Herculaneums underneath CeyloD. Yonder is an exhumed c.ty Waieh was founded 500 years before Christ, stand ing in pomp and splendor for 1200 years. Stairwavs up which fifty men might pas side by side.

Win it uoheaithd w.th a host Of plagues? Was it foreign armies laying s-dge Was it whole jrrnerations weakened by their own vices' Myst- ry sits ami 1 tbe monoliths and brick dust, finder on lip In eternal silence, while the centuries guess anl guess in vain. We simply know that genius planned those citiei, and imiriene popw'atlons inhabited them. An emin-ut writer estimates that a pile of brick3 in one ruin of Ceylon wotlld bo enough to build a wall ten feet high from Edinburgh to London. Sixteen hundred pillars with carved capitals are standing sentinel for ten mi!es. You can juige somewhat of the size ol the cities by the reservoirs that were required to slack their thirst, judin the size of the city from the s:.i- of the cup out of which it drank. Cities crowded with inhabltants not like American or English cities, but pu ked together as only barbaric tribe can pack them. But their knell was sounded, their light went out. Giant trees are the only royal family now occupying those palaces. The growl of Wild beasts where once the guffaw of wassail ascended. Anuraj ahpura and Follonarnu will never be re builded. Let all the living cltieg of the earth take warning. Cities are human, hav ing a time to be born and a time to die. No more certainly have they a cradle than a grave, A last judgment is appointed for in dividuals, but cities have their last Judg ment In this world. They bless, they curse, they worship, they blaspheme, they suffer, they are rewaided. they are overthrown. Preposterous! says some one, to thint that any of our American or European cities which havo stood so long can ever come through vica to extinction. But New York and London have not stoo I as long as those Ceylonese cities stood. Where is the throne outside of Ceylon on which 165 successive kings reigned for a lifetime. Cities and na tions that have lived far longer than our present dtles or nation have been sepul chered. Let all the great muncipalities of this and other land ponder. It is aa true now as when the psalmist wrote it and as true of cities and nations as of individuals, "The Lord knoweth the way of the righ teous, but tho way ot the ungodly shall perish."

Mrs. Winsor's great-grent-prandfather, Nehemiah Smith, planted the mother tree, of which tho other is a limb wrenched while loaded with fruit from the parent stock, dur ing Kiug George ll's reigD, in 1748, and was therefore 111 rears old when it was cut down in 18N9-90, and its Ufa from the eeed must be nearly 150 year?. Tne present tree, "the daughter tree," so-called, is a limb of the mother trunk and was broken off in the Septeiuber'gale of 1815, and which, from an elbow thrust into tho moist, rich soil, took root and became inde pendent. F. M. Terry, of Canandai gu, N. Y., a famous nurseryman and pomologist, pronounced the fruit of these trees the finest of the Greening family, and procured hundreds of seioiis from the dock to introduce in to New York unu the Middle States. Tho pafit season the younger tree bore about ten bushels of the finest quality of apples, and bids fair to breast tho storms of many a winter yet to come.- -Providence (R. I.) Jour nal.

Vhen the tomato is grafted on the potato, which can bo done by reason of the close relationship between the two plants, the potato roots continue to produce potatoes, while tho tomato grafted on the potato stalk continues to produce tomatoes It is considered in some of the agricultural papers as remarkable that one plant should pro duce two different kinds of products ; but it is no more remarkable than other experiences in grafting. A pear may be grafted on the quinoe, but the roots are still quinoe roots, although pears come from the grafted portion. There have been cases known where the graft will influence the stock, bui to such a slight degree as not' to ma terially alter its character Literary Digest. rnenniatic Postal Tubes. Tho pneumatio tube3 laid down somo years ago between tho main oflico in London and the railway stations have been abandoned because tHoy wero not always reliable. It so happened that when they wero most needed they failed to work aud somo foreign mails of the greatest import ance to the British Government got stuck in one of them 0110 day and missed a steamer. The tubes would be a great convenienco if they could be relied upon, for they enrry in two minutes the same amount of mail that it would require ft wagon twenty minutes to carry.

The officials of the Marine Hospital Service, Washington, havo been noti fied that n firm of manufacturing chemists at Detroit, Mich., is making preparations for the manufacture of nnti-toxin, tho new remedy for diphtheria which has created such widespread interest in Europe. This is believed to be the first house of its character iu the United States to be gin experiments. It is reported that this lirm has established a bacteri ological department where the experi ments will be carried on under the di rection of competent scientists. Healthy young horses have already been inoculated with tho toxin, but it is expected that it will be three or four months yet before tho results of the experiments can be announced, as the processes are not only delicate, but tedious. The strength of tho toxin obtained fro'ii thj cultures of diph theria bacilli, and the strength of the anti-toxin, is ascertained by experi ments upon mice and guinea-pigs. New York Poat.
