It is usual ly carried on a sort of frame work of poles to the grave, and it H accompa nied by a band of music and p ofepsion al mourners. The man is laid at full length within it and a lot of stuff is buried with it.

In the. mouth of the bcdy a piece of gold or silver or copisr Is p'.aced. It ia dressed in silk ad is often decked wit'i jewels. Grave robbing is so severely punished in China that there is little danger of the colli;) being disturbed.

Distinguished men have sited them, and their atory la told orer and orer attain. There are grare doubts, ho weTer, whether the eedar ao often mentioned In the Bible was the tree now called tbe Cedar of Lebanon. There Is no doubt that the cedara or Lebanon io more modern times have been tbe ebjects of Teneration. The moat experienced obaer?er who has aten tbe cedars en Mount Lebanon is Sir Joseph Hooker, who visited Syria in 1SC0 for the purpose of examining the grore, la regard to which little was known scientifically up to that time. An account of .his visit was published la the JVofuroZ History Iievitui la Jia- aiy, 1862. with tbe author's views cpon the specific rank and tbe origin of tbe different species or forms of the genus. Tbe number of trees is about 400. and these are disposed in nine groups, cor responding with as many hamuiocks of the range of moraines. Tbey are of va rious slz-s, from about 19 inches to ap ward of 40 feet in girth ; bat the aaoat remarkable and significant fact connect ed with their slaw, and consequently with the age of the grove, is that there is no tree of less than 18 inches girth, and no young trees, bushes or avtn seedlings of a second year's growth. It was supposed, until comparatively ra cent times, that all tbe cedars left upon the earth were in the famous grov, but now they are known to oceur upon diN ferent chains of the Taurus, where with other trees, tbey forsn extensive forssis; while as late as 1S65 Mr. Jasup. au American missionary, discovered five large groves In the Lebanon lte:f,three east of Aln Zahalteh. la the southern Lebanon, one of which was said to con tain 100.000 trees, O.ber groves were also discovered at this lime, so that upon the Lebanon alone the cedar is known in ten distinct localities.

Tbe villspe pastor made a sensible presentation spoecb, and the banner was received by ths captain of the company, who handtd It to the j color-bearer, a witty Irishman. T.':eu facing the worthy pastor and bis fair flock, tbe emiaraaeed cap.ain proceeded to acknowledge the gift as follows : "lievereoed sir and laidea : This beantlfnl flz which I see before me " "It's behind ytr. captain," Interrupt ed the color-bearer. "Which I see behind me,- amended the blusbinj tffi;-r, "stands for eome tbiug more thin the emblem of a pow erful cation. I is ben ys tr.batw to valor, and as such it ts doubly drur to the gallant hearts aiuund me. In thanking yoa for your gift, ladirs, w p'edge onrselv.s faithfully to defend it.

Tacts lor Farmers. The Lancaster Examiner says: "Tb transportation quesMon Is cn of evec presaiLg importance to the farmers ev erywhere ; the cost of getting their pro ducts to market Is a mailer of deep can cern. It is a great m'stake, however, to begin and end with tha items of rail way freights. There ar other iem which enter into tbe calculation, and not tfce least important is tha e rbba of getting grain and other products from the farm to the railway station. "An exchange reports that very careful estimates hive been made by protested experts, who have reached the colcIusIoc that the average cost of hauling 100 bushels of grain one mi!- over country roads is CO cents. That is to say, it costs the farmer 20 cents ton per mile to haul his gra'n from tbe farm to the point of shipment. The average cost of hanMng 100 buchels of wheat one mile by rail is one third cen'; so that, with vuy liberal allowance for errors of calculation as to the cost of teaming, it cos: a as much to carry a crop of wheat from the farm to the rail way station as it does to Cirry it lo market by rail. Ilere is a most poiDt argument io favor of better country roads. Millions migb. be saved annual ly to tbe farmers of the UaUtd S ales if tbey could only be induced to improve the highways which connect their farms with the shipping points by river, rail and canal. Bid roils coet them a great deal mors than tbiy Lave any conception of. An Elephant's Vsgaclty. The stories illustrating tbe sagacity of the elephant are innumerable ; but few are more remarkable thao the fol lowing on recorded by tbe writer la a Bombay paper upon the authority of an artillery cfUcer, who was a witness of the Incident : The battering train ga its to the eelge of Seringapatam had to cross the eandy bed of a tiver that re semsles other rivers in tbe Est, which leave during the summer season but a small stream of water running through tbem, though their beds are mostly of considerable breadth, very beayy for draught and abounding in quicksand. It happened that an artillery man, who was seated on the tumbril of cue of tbe gane, by some accident fell oS io such a situation that la a minute or two the bind wheel must Lave gone over bim The elephant, which teas stationed be bind tbe gnu, perceiving tbe predica ment lo which tbe man was. instantly, without sny warning from Its ketp.-r, lifted up the wheol with Its trunk, ud and kept it suspended till the carriage bad parsed clear of him.

I met cue of. tbem drlrlog a street-car on tbe E ghtb Ave one Line last night. lie is a Welshman named Evan JoDea little Iron gray old man, Willi keen black eyes and a highly rosfate nore. He was a school teac her in his own country, a revenue efficer In Ireland, an accountant In Bombay in an English shipping bouse, aDd now drives bis car with the profane and cynical cheerfullness which characterizes old drivers, old printers and old night watchmen. "I learned a new thing about whiftkey last night, he Bald to me yesterdav, as I stepped on tbe front platform of bis car. "What was it ?" I asked. " Why, how It was made first, " be re plied, as be pulled bis old waterproof through the guardrail in front and bit 1 IT a piece ef p'ug. "It was a monk who first invented it. lie lived all alone in a little bole in thu rocks. For years be had lived there. lie whs a man of piety and learning, could read tbe stars and foretell eclipses and 6 tor ma and hard winters. He knew every herb and fl iwer in tbe fields and could cons enct some powerful cordials and medi cines. He could set broken bones acd cure diseases and be was as kind-heart-as a child, ard never harmed as much as a field mouse. All tbe tame, the people would have nothing to do w'tb him. They avoided him. except now and then, when pome mischievous Ud would roll a rock down tbe mountain pid agsinst bis hot or else stone bis old shaggy dog. N' one ever said a kind word to bim. and be nrght have died and no one would have been near him. TLen he invented whitky. Fi-st tlie people smeiltd it, and the; nsed to bang around to see what It was, end one day the monk found a poor fellow 8'ck acd cold and gave bim a drink, and thtn a llitl- desk to carry away. In a werk the monk bad more friends than an al derman with a pull. Tbw people almost took bis arm cfl shbking bands. They built bim a fine little Btone l.ouBi aad be could have founded a monnstarv and grown rich, but he wou'du't. Iu: kept on makiLg the whisky until be died. 'Where did I learn tht V" said tbe old maj, after be had pa need to say fouietbiLg sarsastic about a woman who wanted the car to stop on the wror.g side of tbe crossing. "Why. there were two eld ducks got on the car late lat night, an 1 both where p'etty fu'l. One was an Englishman and ti e other en Iribmn, and it wus tbe Englishman who told the siory atout tbe mor.k and he wou'id up with : "And tkis btprened in Ireland, an' the m-nk was an Eua;lihmtn,, an' tbe only time an IrishaiMu is ever a friend to an Etiglibhmau js wheu the Eogliubman has ihe bo' tie.

" 'Yes.' said the EngMshman. 'ou give an Iriehm'in a dritk an' ht'il fight hs own fa'.ht-r. " 'An' if an' EngMshman eff.-rs a man a drink 1h k out for bim. he wants j to do'itxi, muiiid that,' bald the Irish man.

A great feature of Mexico is the paiks, or plans, as tbey call them. No matter how f mall rtie town or poor the booses tbey will have a beauilful plan and in tbe eveoing they will have bands of music ard singing. I never heard a poor band while I was in Mexico. The language is the softest nd moit beautiful I ever heard, and listening to tbem talking or singing in the plazas you seem to be in a land of poetry.
