We made an excersi n from Jerusalem to
the Jordan and the De d Sea, going by way
of Bethany silt Jericho, and retunring by the
convent of St. Saba. There is at this day so
much danger of falling among thieves in,go
ing down from Jerusalem to, Jericho, that
travellers join parties wher: they can, and
unite their gdards into a arras of armed men,

indeed we scarcely saw anybody the whole
way. The clang:thous pait of the 'road ap
[Anted- deserted, and the. plain or Jericho;
once studded with towns; and filled with
fertility, lay befors us almost as Uleleas as
.the Basin of the Dead Sea.
. We leli Jerusalem by St. Stephen's gale—
my three friends, myself, and our Servants
and baggage—and met the rest lit the travL
elling patty at the bridge. in the valley of Je
hosaphat„at 9A. ti. We proceeded by the.
camel road to Bethany, which winds up the
side of Olivet, and crosses its right to the
east. As soon as we had passed the ridge,.
Bethany came in view. lying on the eastern
slope of the Alount of Olives, and as we all ,
. knew, "fifteen lurlengs".thstanee from Jere- ,
salem. Ills now a village inhabited by a
bout twenty families; a very poor place; but
looking lest squalid than might be expected,
from its houses being built as everywhere
in that country, of stone, square, sebstantial
and 'large, compared With cottages in Eng
band. Its position on' the side of the hill is
very flee, seen from below.
Before deStentling the 11111,‘hoWeyer, we_
alighted fretn otar ;tomes, to visit an old tenth,
which it; called the tomb of Lazarus. No
enlightened traveller believes.it to be really
the place where azarus was
° lvied, berth'
see any ancient tomb'on - that spot was an
opportunity not to be missed; and we gladly
went down to the dark rock'-hewn steps to
the little chamber where some Corpse had
once been laid. I have often wished that the
old painters had enjoyed such oppoiteeities
and then we Should have had representa
tions of Lazarus coming forth from the chain
bers in the lock i and pot rising from such 'a
grave its is dug in European 'churchyards.
The limestone roek...eLludea are lull of holes.
and caverns; and we know froin.the Scrip-
Imes how abundantly these were used by the
old inhabitants, as dwellings for themselves
arid cattle, as a shelter tb the way farer, a
.th:l3. , e to the fugitive, a hiding-place for rob
bert, and a plate of deposite for the dead._
Where a cavern was found with holes or
recesses in its sides,a little labor would
make it an extensive place of burial. By
squaring the entrance, and giving more re
gularity tb the arch of the roof, a hanilsorne
vestibule was obtained; and then, the re
misses were ltekvat into form ; for the recept
tior. of bodies. Sometimes these recesses
had pits; sometimes niches in their walls,
so that each recess would
they
several
bodies; arid sometimes they were so small
as to contain only one:earth. Sometimes
the vestibule opened out into passages,,
which had recesses on each haul; so that
a large company of the dead might be
hidden in the heart of the mountain.—
The Whole was secured from wild beasts
and other intrusion by a stone dbur fitted
to the entrances or 'a large block roll • d
tip against it. These who have seen iese
Eastern tombs can never again he puzzled,
as 1 ads hi my childhood, when reading of
the chambers of the grave," and of the dead
calling to one anothei in the house of death,
and of the stone being . rolled away from the
month of the sepulchre. litany d 6hild won
cleat, of I did, titiw the way was made for
Lazarus to come Ibrth, merely by the remo
vall of a stone k but, once having stood look
ing at the door of a septilchre, how vivid be
come the picture of Jesus standing there,
and milk.; on Lazarus with "a loud voice"
to come forth! Dow one hears that voice
echoing through the chambers of the tomb,
and sees the dead man in his corments
`shadow
froth the steps of the . vaulty or the
shadow Of the recess:
In the tomb which wd explored it Beth
any, the - Welts Wad do' h a considerable
way in the rock. One flight of decpi narrow
steps, led us into a small vatiltbd chaMber;
and two or three more - steps, itarrtf*er still, -. '
into the Jewett torrib; which Had littlti more
mein than for one body. The nionks,tHlen
taken as guides, show in the village what
they call the house of Martha and Mary, and
that of Simon the Leper; but we did not . in ! '
quire for these, having no wislrto, mix tip

hardly say, that there can be no good reason
for fixing on this mountain as thelate, anti
that the choice of it is probably o wing to its

The following amusing extracts are fte.i
a new booki-lately-published
Hart, of Philadelphia, entitled "The Gjeateat
Plague of Life, or the Adventures or a-Lady
in Search of a Good Servant," Procuring a
"help" seems to be the greatest, difficulty
experienced by young house-keepers, and
these difficulties are probably much increas
ed by the manner which is often assumed
towards thoSe whose hard fortune it Is to serve
in such a capacity. This -we sltteld jndge
to-be especially-true--of-the writer-of-these
'adventures. In the passages below, the ail
thoress tells the severe luck she-had with an
Irish girl : .
".A.6 for the matter of that, Norah's,pota
tof.x, too, I'm sure I could'i,t see anything so
Wonderful about Meter. But, of course, Mr.
KilWard must go thinning them dressed so
beautifully, just because they came ill - ) in
their jackets; though for my own part, I ne
ver could - bear the look of rho. things in their
skins; and what's more, it wasn't debent to
have them- coining to table in such a state.—
And the next day I told my lady a'S much,.
adding that she -would be pleased to peel
the potatoes before bringdig then te the
parlor for the future, as they were only tit
for pigs to eat in the way she tent diem up.
Whereupon the vixen flew Into such:tt rage,
and abused and swore at-me in re& a way,
calling me everything that was ball, and de
claring that she would pay me out for it.—
And then, in the height of her. riession, the
spiteful fury, with the greatest coolness In
the world, emptied. all the drips ingout of the
frying=pari she was doing some shies in,
right into the middle of the nice, brisk, clear

of the house. Knowing that it was just Orion

I rushed but inie the garden, there it was,
sure enough, raging away, and throwing out
volumes of sparks and toneke, just like the
(minel al. a steam:beak at night-time—with
such a Itol - xid smell of Writing soul, that' all
the little hays came rushing from fur and
rear up to Jill r door,
.and shrieked out, Fire!

" When I Went back into the kitehen, the
spitettil thing was impelletit enough to -tell
me hist- to look there and b'ee what I had
made her do wid rnlt bederations (as she
called it.) adding, 'Mat It was'nt herself, -

down came such a torrent of water and soot,

aftetwards, as if only to make matters worse,
I heard a tremendous shout in the street, and
on running, to the window, I at once knew
that the parish engine was at hand; for, tear
