Of late years It has been showing many'signs of new life, and the cotnpie. .tlon of the* rail way,., wliicli was begun in l JJO, will probably impart considerable stimulus to its business. interests. Tho railway is about thirty-onO miles in length and terminates half a milo from the Holy City. Tiie road ; from It into tlie city crosses tho valley of Ilinrio.m and passes the. pool of Betbesda. •
All in all, the opening of the Jerusalem railway is an important; event In the history of Palestine, and doubtless murks the beginning of great and significant changes. Tho tlirill.of modern civilization has jit last reaciied tho land so sacred dn its asso clations to tiie Jew and the Christian, and if th e’ demoralizing, rule of the Turk couid bey otily abolished, and an enlighu ened and progressive governriient bo sub* stltuted f»>r it, Palestine might recover something of Its olden political and com* merciai importance. ; But the day of tho “ unspeakable Turk” • is slow ly. waning- Nothing'but tlio jealousies of great Euro* pean powers keeps him at Constantinople, and it would not be at all surprising if i the diiwtiing of the - twentieth century should see hiin dispossessed of the remnants of hls.mitch abused power, ami the cro$s su- preme above tho crescent, as In- the days long fled.
The introduction Into the Holy Land of European’ thought and activities will do stroy something.of Its picturesqueness for many ey#»s;..but the changes that It Is now undergoing can badly iiolp being for tho better.

Grace.and Glory.
; “ l^or the Lord God Is a.suij and shield the Lord will' give grace arid glory: no good thing will, lie withhold frorii them that' walk uprightly '* (Pa. 8i?‘ 11).
The word '‘ for ” introduces a reason for the previous statement, yiz.,*“ f had rather be a doorkeeper In the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.” “ For tho Lord God is a snn'arid shield.” Nothing of tho kind is found iu .“ the tents' bf wickedness.’’ The devil Is t,l\e prince of darkness, not of light. He is an enemy not a protector. . 116-.hurls1 liery durts, hot shields from them. ,
The ideas of “ sun,and shield” are linked together, because tliey com plement each other’in human need and divine supply. “ A sun for happy days, a shield for dangerous ones.” A sun : above, 11 shield around. A light-to show the way and a shield tb ward off Its perils.’! Thus God was “a sun and shield” to journeying Israel “ In tho yday tlm e . also he :.i ed tli e mywith a cloud, and ali tlie night with a llght'of flrey! In-a period of'extreme;danger;:“;the angei of the Lord wlilch went before the. camp of. Israel, removed arid ;w'erit beh.ind! them v and; the pillar of -the cloud' went frbmy before their face arid/-stood- behind thetuv Aud it came between the’cainp of-the •Egyptians arid the cauip o f , 1 s'raeland - it was a cloud and' darkness to them,:but It gave light by night to these ; so that the one came not neiir.the other ull the ulght.”
“ Is God- more or better to ancient Israel than to Ills dear children in tlie noouday of the Gospel ? “ For I, salth the Lord, will be unto her a wall o f lire round about, and will be the glory Iri the-midst of her.” This is spoktn of Jerusalem, whlclris evidently a-typo of the church of Jesus.'
“ H e will; give grace arid glory.” “Both in dub tithe, both'aS nqpded.!’ Griice now in tlio midst of trial iind toil—glory hereafter^ and plenty o f it. Thou shalt guide mo with thy co’usel, and aftehviird. receive me to glory.” y . “ Nb'g«)‘od thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.'* God’s best gifts are conditional. Grace must lio sought—glory, is sure to follow^ “ IIo niaketh hissun.to rise on the evil and on the good, and senduth raiu on the just and on tho unjust." ,L’hri.“t died for all.- Tho general benefits o f the atonement are realized by all, but there is an Inner circie of benefits.which accruo oriiy to the upright. “ We trust in the Jiving God who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those tliat believe.’r .. Grace sought and obtained enables us to* walk uprightly. X o good thing is with* heid,' eteruid ’ glory- the : consummation. “ Some .’apparent good may he withheld, but no reai'good, no; not-one;’1 “;Slan Is tlie glory of this Iower wbrld ;- the sbul Is .thbglorypfm anignicQ iathegiorypf.tho sou l; and heaven is the glory of graced. .“T his -is an immense fountain; the- Lord fill all the; buckets o f our;: hearts at the spring, and glveyus bapaclbus souls, as he hath . a liberal hahd;”-~

Threa Days of Pageantry.A tired-out million peopie on-.the eveu-
Ing of Weriesdiiy, Oct. U , sought the solace and rest of their iiomes in ,am i around New York city after three days’ excite* merit attendant upon the Colunihus cele* bratinn, .the greatest occasion,.everybody ’. admits, that Manhattan .Island-ever witnessed,- It Isn’t hard for New York to outdo‘tiie rest of mankind in anything that city undertakes, good or bad j but in this Instance she has fairly outdone - her. self. Of course the affair cost an Immense sum in public money, private decoration, . personal fatigue and au incalculable outlay.of time and expense to her suburban population and visitors; and fpr what? .
The historic Incident of Columbus discovering America -100 years;, ago, was the occasion of this gorgeous display;, but how many people would have given three days’ time, endured long matches, and risked their lives iii impulsive crowds, for anything past. .or future,, but preseut • amusement?. ■ ' . , \ •'

The rumsellers have most- probably filled their coffers, for there was no restric-' tlon thought of lu thi3 vile trallic, and a- large prbportibn of the street population reeled,to and-fro under the iutlueuce of alcohol. The railroads had a great spurt and earned a gtnni deal of money, of which tio one will complain, for the); dtd well in tlie train service; but the exposure,’ espe- cially-of those hundreds o f almost nude girls, appearing on “ floats” aud on horseback, Wednesday night, will result in ti deplorable harvest of sickness and It may. bo death, to auiuse the multitude. ;

The Association Dinner.
' Life glides awHj- in many a bend,;In chaptors which begin and end; •Each bas Its trial, eauh Ub grace,Each in lire's whole its proper place.Have 1 laid by from Summer hours Ripe fruits us well as leaves aud tlowers Hath my past year’a growth to harden,As well as fewer sloa to pardon ?1b God Jn all things more and more .
, A King wlthUi me than before?J know not. Yet one chango bath come—The world feels less aud less a home.”

. • Washington Letter.. , ‘ AVasiiington, U. C.,\C)ct. 5,1892,
v Everyone will agree on gcnerul principles that • the lo c a l' authorities of. the National Capital should set an oxample.in dealing with the nefarious liquor tratHc' worthy of being followed by. the nuthorf:
• t ie s .o f other cities; hut nlus! every resident of Washington who is familiar with the facts knows tlmt.it is just tho reverse, and those who have been engaged in temperance work hero for any length of time can tell you of a long series of promises of ‘‘ au Improvement next year" umde them by the District Commissioners every year, and - just as regularly broken- when the time conies wound for granting liquor licenses. It is highly creditable to the temperance people' that thoy continue'to work for a , reduction of the number of barrooms.-just as though the many prbni-
• isesm ade to them had beeu kept. Last year, at th e ' request of the tornperunce workers; every saloon keeper was requlred to promise on his word of honorr-person- ally. I do not believe it possible for a rum- seller to be possessed of even a spark of honor—not to sell liquor on Sunday before being grunted u .licensc, and; was in addition told that if he violated his promise no license would be issued to him this year. The license year begins Kovembor 1, and it remains to be seen whether' this promise on the part of tho District Commissioners, to refuse licenses to those who have violated tho law against selling liquor ou Sunday^ is to bo broken or to be kept.
• I f the treatment of the suloou keepers, large numbers of whom kept their places wide open ou the Sunday preceding the opening o f the National Encampmeut of th e;G. A. H.; may be taken as an indication of the feelings of the authorities towards theso law-breakers the promises will bo again broketi. It was confidently expected that a number.of cases would bo made against the saloon keepers who ke^t open on Sunday, but up to , this time not half a dozen o f ‘them have been arrested, while there aro ktfown to bo hundreds who were guilty. Somo people say that our police authorities instructed the men not to.arrest tho saloon keepers. Of that I cannot speak authorltlvely. But some of the most courageous of the temperance people are at work, gathering evidence aguinBt all of tho saloon keepers who have during the present license year sold liquor on Sunday, -which they propose placing, before the Commissioners with the de
mand that.licenses for npxtyear be refused theso law-breakers'. Of course .they have no authority to. enforce this demand, except that of public opinion, which, owing to the system of government of the District of Columbia, is not so powerful hero
v as elsewhere.The rumsellers of Washington are di
rectly responsible • for the pitiable condition of a number of old soldiers who came here to attend tho encampment and who are still hero unable to return to their homes, owing to their having become, iu- toxicatod and while in that condition hav- ing lost or had stolen from them all their money and their return tickets. A public appeal has been made for subscriptions to buy tickets to send those victims of the liquor fiend back to their homes. - They aro for tho present being taken care o f by ono of tho homes In this city.

Suppose your butter and egg man sold eggs fit 20 cents a dozen, and the fellow across the way then offered tiiem for 5 cents; W hich would you buy?
Depends upon th e eggs.It. costs more to m ake good
clothing of . cou rse; arid of course y o u expect to pay more. But there’s a line to be drawn; draw it yo u rself... T r y .us, if you like; if you ’re not satisfied with y o u r bargain, bring it back. W e ’re saying this all the time; but som ehow goods don't com e . back. Strange, isn’t it ?
•You can buy by. mail almost as well as if you were here ; with the same guarantee of safety— send back what you don’t like.
