Itulna of Cnpernaum nml Cherni In, A New Yerk San correspondent of great 1 Horary lame and profeniM) niitliiunrlan knowlcdge, is engaged In a methodical ex ploration of tlie region which was trod by Jesus during tlie brief period or Ills earthly ministry. He sends te that paper seme letters of roiuarknhle In tercst, writing from Hulf.u IIe describes his explorations en tlie eastern part of tlie Hen of nalllen, the most sacred of all valers upon the glebo In tlie estimation of the Christian world. Here, nfter having seen the crumbling walls of Baldwin's castle, the magnlllcent crusading stronghold, which seems te have been visited In modern times by only asingle traveler, he turned nslde te cxnmine tlie ruins of an ancient Jewish synagogue, dating probably fiem the first or socenil century of the Christian era Theso ruins he regards as among his most interest ing discoveries. But Christians generally will study with far greater eagerness the ac count of his explorations of the ruins of Korsa, or the Oergesa of the Illble, whero Jesus healed the two men pe sessed with tlevils, and Httllercd the evll spirits te enter Inte the herd of swine, which " ran vlolently down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters." We reprlnt a portion of his striking letters. lit tlie "lJimt of the Orulurcncit." It was up the branch of the Wndy that I was descending that the projected railway from Haifa te Damascus would have te be led, and it was seme satisfaction toseo that it oU'erod facilities for the ascent of the line ; the scenery was in tlie hlghcHt degrce pic turesque, the fides of tlie valley sometimes sloping back ler seme distance te the feet of the basalt precipices, whlcli formed its upier wall, at ethers these approached and formed firejectlng nml overhanging promontories, ikothaten which the Kasr Bcrdawil wns situated.

Scarcely any amount of insanity en the part of tliodevlls would account for such a mad career, but in point of f-ict It does 'net tally with the scrip. ture rocertl, according te which they rushed down a steep place Inte the sea.

Perhaps the most Interesting spot in tlie world totheso deeply under the iullueuce ei that charm which association lends te planes hallowed by the ministrations of the founder of Christianity Is te be leund in a desert rock strewn promontory en tlie northwest shore of the lake of Tiberias ; for among these piles of liewu blocks of black basalt still remain the ruins of a great synagegue, within whose walls, the foundations of which may still be dintluctly traced, wero collected the multi tudes who Hocked te hear tlie teaching or Christ.

Here it was that Christ cured I'oter's mother-in-law. restored the iaralytle called Matthew, cured the cen turion's servant, ralsed Jalrus' daughter from the dead, and obtalned tlie tribute of money from the mouth el a fish. It was here that I in speke the parables of the sewer, the tares, tlie tre.viuruhid in tlie Held, the mer chant seeking goodly pearls, and the net cast Inte the sea.

This very synagegue was probably the sceno of tlie healing of the domenlao and of the delivery of many of theso divine lectures en faith, humility, brotherly love, nnd formality In worship, as we read at the end ofenoof thorn : " Theso things said He In the synagegue as He taught In Capernaum." Perhaps It was In the llttle creek whero a beat was new riding at anchor only a few feet from the shore, that Christ taught the poeplo Irein the beat se as te avoid the crush of the multitude It was deubtless In ene of theso Inlets that .Tames, the son of Zoltedoo, and Jehn, his brether, wero mending thelr nets, when, being called, they left thelr ship nnd followed Him ; and it was en this coast that Attdrew and I'eter wero casting their nets when they wero summoned te beceme Ushers of men. It has a higher claim te lie called th bltfliplace of tlie relig ion which lias since rovelutionhrod tlie world than any ether sKit upon it ; and It Is a mat ter of soma siiriirise te me tliatnolther the Greek nor the Reman Catholic churches, in their 7011I te discover holy places, which may sorve as levers for political Intrigue, have yet thought of occupying this ene, which would scorn the holiest of all. I'crhaiH It would lead te a comparison botween their practlce nnd the teaching of which It was the scene, which might give rlse te seme inconvenient rollections. Apart from their associations, the ruins tlioiuselvcs are net particularly striking. They cever an area of alieut half amlle in leugth by a quarter hi breadth, and consists chlelly of the blnck blocks of basaltic stene which fermed the walls of the houses. The traces of the synagegue, hewever, remain sulllclcutly for the building te be planned. Ilullt of white liuiestone blocks, It must have formed a conspicuous object amid the black basalt by which It was surreunded. it was 75 feet by f7, built north and south, and at the Heutliern end had three entrances.

The path le them leads up the sloping rocky hillsides, but, owing te tlie peculiar character of the masonry, which is barely te be distinguished at 100 yards from tlie rocks whlcli surround it, tlie extent and Importance of theso ruins have been over looked until quite recently.

The Supreme Court Derides n Cae Acalimt a Fermer Laneaatrlan. On May U, 187S, Jacob lleas had his lire In sured rer f2,000 in the U. II. Mutual Aid society or Pennsylvania. After having paid assessments nggicgatlngfl8.20) en the 13th of July, 1S78, he sold and assigned his policy policy te James W. Dewney, formerly of this city, who paltl him ftti. Tliis assignment was ap proved by the company, nnd from the time when it was tnnde till the death el lleas, which occurred en April I, lb8l, Downey paid the assessments. The total amount se ptild by him was f.rGS.M). Dewney was noither n creditor or lleas nor a relation by bleed or marriage. After the death of the Insured the money was claimed by his administrator and by Dewney as well, ami a submission or tlie Tacts iu pioper rerm was made in order that the court might detormlne who was entitled te tlie ruiid. Iloll'er, the ndmlnistrater, admitted that Downey was entltled te the ff.fi he paid te lleas, as well as te the amount of the assess ments he paid te the company at various times. The total amount admitted se te be due was f7I5.fl. The admlstrater, however, claimed the onllre kalance of the fund, maintaining that Inasmuch as Downey had no iusurable interest iu the llfe or lleas his right te participate hi tlie preceeds of tlie policy was limited te the nioney act ually paid by him with the Interest which had accrued thereon. Te this reply was innile by ihe assignee defendant that tlie pol pel Icy was taken out hi geed faith, and that the assured was net prevented from selling his right under the contract for his own advan tage, nor was the defendant denied the right te purchase it ; anil that In any event, as he hail purchased Unas Interest lu the policy he was entitled te receive the whole amount of the assessment paid by lleas as well us thase paid by himself. Jutlge Saddler, or the common pleas or Cumberland county, te whom the case was submitted, decided In favor ofthe assignee. A writ or error was takeu te the supreme court, ami that body has Just handed down a per curiam nlllnnmg tlie judgment or the court below. The court holds that the rule whlcli Is nppllcnhle te this class of contracts rests en piiblie policy, which rerbids gamb ling en the duration of human life. The sale or purchase eta policy lu geed fuith Is or no consequence The mischief resulting from sucii sale Is that they are contrary te public policy nnd the just principles or lire insu rance.
