Ths author of this wonderful book, as we all know, is General Lew Wallace, Banaet Cox's predecessor as minister to Constantinople. Very eminent critics have given it rank with Ivanhoe, Monte Christo, and others of the most cele brated works of fiction. We have just carefully read it for the second time, and believe it would bring pleasure and profit to ail thoughtful young peo ple just completing their education. The historical and geographical charac ter of the country where the develop ment of the story is wrought out, at that dramatic period between the death of Herod the Great and the crucifixion of Christ, is graphically presented. Nowhere else can the youthful mind catch such a vivid view of the polished Greek, the devoted but fanatical Jew, and the iron-clad Roman . The gorgeous city of Antioch, at that time next to Rome the richest city in the world, keeps watch and ward by the O routes over the imperial gates of the east. The author's description of this splendid city, of its baths, gardens and games, of its vast commercial structures, bridges and ships, and particularly of tha strangely fascinating grove of Daphne, with its flowers, myrtles and nymphs, is of Itself worth ten times the cost of the book. And then the deline ation of Jerusalem bound In Roman chains, with every foot of landscape hallowed by divine memories; with the slopes and vineyards of Olivet, the tower of Antonio and the Hill of Zion glowing in the sunset; wilh the sacred wells and fountains sparkling in the surrounding valleys, aud Bethany and Bethlehem rising in the distance, all this is so touchingly and forcibly por trayed, that the geography of that coun try becomes an absolute realization in stead of a vain dream. Back and forth between the Tiber, Antioch, Jerusalem and the desert, like a weaver's shuttle, sweeps the enchant ing tale. On the lonely Syrian plain, in obedience to the divine call, on stately white camels, gather the three Wise Men, whe thenceforth follow the star of the east" until it leads them to the manger cradle of the infant Jesus, Ben Bur,' a slender, gentle Jewish boy, for aa accident to the Roman Govern or, e bis family and home broken up. Is himself doomed to tho galleys, is for three dreadful years bound as a slave to the oars, until God opens the heart of Arrius, the commander of the fleet, to his beauty, his grace and his couraga. and, in a terriflo battle with pirates among the fair Grecian isles, makes him the instrument of his commander's succor, when Arrius adopts him and starts him on his career of ambition, heroism and glory. He goes to Antioch, where he finds Simon ides, the ancient and powerful steward of his father, and the beautiful Esther, the most enohant- ing figure of the story. Then comes that unequalled description of the chariot race in the circus, which neither Soott, Bulwer nor Dumas has ever ap proached. Ben Hur, driving ths Ara bian flyers of Ilderim, overthrows his unprincipled adversary, Messala, carries the sympathies of the fast multitude in a storm, and becomes the idol of the golden city of the east. Out of all this conflict, passion and excitement swiftly rises the story of the Christ, and the dramatic scene is changed to Jerusalem. The Prince, the King, tha Deliverer, followed by Ben Hur with his desert legions, makes his last entry into the royal city, but failing to take an earthly crown for his .kingdom, is for saken by his pretended friends, and is abaadoaed to the horrors of Calvary. There is an undercurrent of power in this story, born of genius, inspiration and feeling. It is sound and healthy to the oere. It fills tha soul of the reader full of else trio lamps, by whose light many hidden truths are revealed. Read it, and you will be better for the reading. ffhea WW He Come! Editor Joubhax WOl you please in form me when your correspondent, Mr. "Mora Anon," who ia now absent from tha city, oa a rlait to Mr. Bryan at Morehaad, will return home. If it will not be too much to ask, will too. at the same time kindly Inform -ma whea Mr, Bryaa, who la aow enjoying tha aea breesea and tha ooaetaat ossspanfcmahip of Mr. "Mora Anon", at Morehaad. will return to the city. It will be a great pity to separate tneee modern reprsr eentaUreo of Daaaoa and Pythias, bat one or. the other of them, It saakas fto differeaoa which, ia Beaded bare on ur gent affairs of great moment. X. As oar correspondent, Mr. "Mora Aaoa," and "Mr. Bryan" are two die tiaet personages, our MX," oorreepoad- ant may be mistaken as to the close in- ttmaer bMween them. Howrvw, we eannot'answer the question aa to whoa either of these gentlemen wOl be in the cirri Ed. JocwAt. ' - tf Ten Wish a Geea Article V3 Of Plpo Tobaooo ask you dealer for via mr' - oouawwa That Communication. The late hour at which we obtained the proof of the communication con cerning the stockholder's meeting at Morehead City, prevented as extended a notice as we desired to give. Our attention htm now been called to the fact that our correspondent misrepre sented, doubtless unintentionally, the position of Mr. Simmons on the resolu tion introduced by him, which author ized the directors, if they thought it in the best interest of the A. & N. C. K. to subscribe m stock or bonds to the con struction of the road authorised by the charter of the East Carolina Land and Railway Co. Mr. Simmons stated die tinctly that he did not expect ths reso lution to pass as he introduced it, but be desired to have the matter discussed and after discussing it he very readily ac cepted Col. Hinsdale's substitute which merely authorized the directors to in quire into the matter and report st a regular or called meeting. Our correspondent is also in error when he says that Mr. Simmons stated that the East Carolina Land and Rail way Company controls twenty miles of road-bed virtually ready for the ties. What he did say was that the charter of the East Carolina authorized the counties of Jones and Onslow to donate this twenty miles of graded road. Mr. Simmons made no organized effort to get his resolution through, he had consulted no one who held any considerable vote. His sole object was to induce the stockholders to investigate the project, knowing that it was a vtry meritorious one. Church Services Today. l'recbytenan Church, Pastor Kev. I.. ( Vass. I). It.
