After a series of experiments ex tending over several years a plan has been adopted for the purification of the sewage of Paris which now Hows into the Seine, to the great detriment of public health. Under this plan an iron aqueduct will convey the drainage from the city to a point near the forest of St Germain. Thence the sewage will flow through a masonry conduit pierced with holes through which the liquid will escape upon the land where re quired. When distributed the water in the sewage sinks through several inches of soil and is conveyed back to the Seine. By this means an enor mnnc nnantitv of drainaee can be easily t2 treated, and the water, after fiitra- Avon, is as clejfc as crystal. Experi- ,l; iscats with thiBwu were oegun in r 1KB, acar Vans.

In continuation of his discourse on his recent voy ago Rev. T. IV Witt Tal magc lately preached at Brooklyn from two texts: Acts xx. S; "When we had discovered Cyprus we left it on the left hand;" and Revelation L 0; "I, John, was in the Isle that is called Palmos." Dr. Talmage said: Good-by, Kgypt! Although interest ing and instructive Insyond any country in all the world, except the Holy Land, Egypt was to me somewhatdeprervsing. It was a post mortem examination of cities tht died 4,000 years ago. The mummies, or wrapped-up bodies of the dead, were prepared with reference to the resurrection day. the Egyptians de parting this life wanted their bodies to be kept in as gool condition as possible so that they would be presentable when thc3' were called again to occupr them. Rut if when Pharaoh comes to resurrection he finds his body looking as I saw his mum my in the museum at Roulac, his soul will become an un willing tenat- The Sphinx also was to me a stern monstrosity, a statue carved out of rock of red granit (12 feet high and alout 113 feet long nud having the head of a man and the body of a lion. We sat down in the sand of the African desert to study it With a cold smile it has looked down upon thousands of years of earthly history: Egyptian civilization: upon the rise and fall of thrones innumerable; the victory aud defeat of the armies of cen turies. It took :i,((K) years to make one wrinkle on its red cheek. It is dread ful in its stolidit3'. It eyes hare never wept a tear. Its cold ears have not listened to the groans of the Egyptian nation, the burden of which I tried to weigh last Sabbath. Its heart i.s stone It cared not for I'liny when he meas ured it in the first century. It will care nothing for the man who looks into its imperturbable countenance in the last century. Rut Egypt will yet eomo up to the glow of life The. Rible promises it The missionaries are bounding a resur rection trumpet above those slain em pires. There will lie sot.u other Joseph at MemphU. There will le some other Moses on the banks of the Nile. There will be some other Hypa tia to teach good morals to the de graded. Instead of a destroying angel to slay the first born of Egypt, the Angel of the New Testament will shako everlasting life from his wings over a nation born in a day. Good-by. Egypt! This sermon finds us on the steamer Minerva in the Grecian Archipelago, islands of the New Testament, and islands raiilinian and Jolmunian in their remini-eence What Itradshaw'.s directory is to travelers in Europe, and what the rail road guide is to travelers in Aincriro, the book of the Acts in the Hible is a voyager in the Grecian, or as I shall call it, the Gospel Archipelago. The Rible geography of that region is ac curate without the shadow of mistake. Wu aro sailing this morning on the same water that Raul sailed but in the opposite direction to that which Paul voyaged. He was sailing southward and we north wanL There is no book in the world so accurate as the divine book. My text says thnt Paul left Cyprus on the left We, going in the opposite direction, have it on the right On our ship Minerva were only two or three passengers besides our parly, so wo had plenty of room to walk the deck, andO, what a night was Christ mas night of 1S3'J in that Grecian archi jHilago islands of light above, islands of beauty beneath! It is a royal family of islands, this Grecian archipelago; tho crown of the world's scenery set with sapphire nud emerald and topaz, nnd chrysoprnsus and ablaze with a glory that seems let down out of celes tial landscapes. The steamer hud stopped during the night and in the morning the ship was as quiet as this floor, when we hastened up to deck and found that we had anchored oft the island of Cyprus. In a boat, which the natives rowed stand ing up, as is the custoiri, instead of sit ting down as when we row, we were soon landed on the streets where Paul anil Rarnabas walke I anil preached. Yea. when at Antioch Paul anl Rar nabas got into a fight as ministers sometimes did. and sometimes do, for they all have imperfections enough to nnchor them t' this world till their work is done, I say when lieeause of that bitter controversy Paul and Rar nabas parted, Rarnabas came back here to Cyprus, which was his birth - flace Island wonderful for history! t has been the prize sometimes won by Persia, by Greece, by Egypt, by the Saracens, by the Cr.isader, and last of all, not by sword but bv pen, and that the pen of the keenest diplomatist of the century. Lord IScacon.sfield. wlu under a lease whic't was as g-vrl as a purchase set Cyprus among tne jewels of Victoria's crown. We went out into tho excavations from which I)i Cesnola has enriched rr American museum with antiquities and with no Iwttcr weapon 'than our foot we stirred up the ground deep enough to get a tear b t tie in which some mourner shed his tears thousands of 3-cars a?o and a lamp which before Christ was Inrn lighted the feet of some poor pilgrim on his way. The island of Cyprus has enough to set an nntiqnarian wild. The most of its glory is the glory of the past nnd the typhoid fevers that sweep its coast and the clouds of locusts that often blacken the skies and the frequent change of governmental masters hin ders prosperity. Rut when the Islands of the sea come to G1, Cyprus will come wi'h them, and the agricultural and commercial opulence which adorned it in arcs past will be cclipel by the agricultural and commercial and religious triumphs of the ages to come. Why is the world so stupid that it can not see that nations arc prospered in temporal things in propor tion as they are prospered in re ligious things. Godliness is profit able not only for individuals, bat ; for nations. Questions of tariff, ques tions of silver bill, questions of repub lic or monarchy have not o much to do with a nation's temporal welfare as questions of religion. Give Cypres td Christ, give England to Christ, give America to Christ, give the world to Christ, and he will give them all a prosperity unlimited. The altar of God in the charch Is the high water mark of the world's happiness. The Christian religion triumphant, all other interests triumphant The Christian religion low down, all other interests low down. So I thought as on the evening of that day we stepped from the filthy streets of Larsaea, Cyprus, onto the boat that took ns back to the steamer Mi nerva, and then we moved on aad ep amoag the islands of this gospel archi pelago. Night caac down on Land and sea, aad the voyage became to me saore and more suggestive aad solemn. If yon ar paeiag it alone, a ship's deck ia the darkness and at sea is a weird platy. and as active iaagiaatioa mj conjure up almost any nhape he tIIL and it shalt walk the sen, or confront him by the smokestack, or meet him under the captain's bridge. Rut hrre 1 was alone on ship's deck in the gtspel archipelago and do you wonfier that the sea was populous with the pat and that down the ratlines Rible memo ries descended? Our friends had all I gone to their I said, "when the Island of out from under 1...-.1.- w".. t S will we arrive at Rhodes? Ixling his elazrd can, be responded in sepulchral voice. "A1 at midnight" Though it would be keep ing unrcx-onsble hours, I concluded it stay on deck, for I must sx Rhodes, one of the islands associated with the name of the grratest missionary the world ever saw or ever ill m-c Paul landed there and that was enough t? make it famous while the world stands and famous In Heaven when the world has become a charred wreck This island has had a wonderful his tory. With fi.000 Knights of Sl John, it at one time stood out against 200. &00 warriors under "olytnan the Magnifi cent The city had S.060 statucv and a statue to Apollo called Colossus, which has alwars since Wen consid ered one of the seven wonders of tho world. It was twelve j-ears In build ing and seventy cubits high, and had a winding stairs t the top. It stood fifty-six years and then is a? prostratod by an earthquake. After lyiug in ruins for yoo yean it was pure has I to tx? convcrted to other purposes, and the metal, weighing 7J0.0O-J naunds, was put on 900 eainel.s and carried away We were not jorraittcd to go ashore, but the lights all up and down the lulls diow where the city stands, and nine boats come out to take freight and to bring three pavM'nger.s. Vet all the thousands of years of its historv are eclipsed by the few hours or dars that Paul stopjed there. As I stood there on the deck of the Minerva, looking out njfcin the place were the Colossus unco stood, I tclhought myself of the fact that the world must have a Gd of soiuu kind. It is to me an infinite pathos this Colossus not only of Rhodes, but the colossi in many parts of the earth. This is only the world's blind reaching up aud feeling after OoJ. Foundered human nature must have n supernatural arm to help it ashore All the statues and images of heathendom are attempts to bring celestial forces down into human affairs. Rlessed Ikj our ears that we have heard of an ever present God. anl that through Jesus Christ He c unes into our hearts an 1 our homes, and with more than fatherly and motherlv interest ami af fection lie is with us in our struggles and lereaveiiients and vicissitudes. Rhode needs something higher than the Colossus, and tho day will come when the Christ whom Paul was serving when he sailed into this harlor of Rhodes shall take possession of that is ami. As we move on up through this nr chipelago 1 am reminded of what an imjtortant part the islands have taken in the histor3 of the world. They are necessar3 to tho balancing of the planet The two hempispheres must have them. As you put down upon a scale the heavy -ound weights, and then the small ounces, and no one thinks of despising the Miiall weights m the continents are the jxiunds nnd the islands are the ounces. A Conti nent is only n large island and an island 011I3" a smaller continent S miethitig of what uart the islands have taken in the world's history vou will see when f4 remind 3011 that the island of Salitmis produced Solon ami the island of Saiuos produced Pvthagoras and the island of Coos produced Hippocrates. Rut there is one island that I longed to see more than nuy other I can af ford to miss the princes ninong the islands but I must see the king of the Archipelago. The one I longed to sec is not so many miles in circumference as Cyprus or Crete or P.iros or Nnxos or Scio or Mit-Iene. but I had ratner. is this sail through the Grecian Ar chipelago, see that than all th- othris; for more of the glories of Heaven landed there than on all the islands and continents since the world stood. As we come toward it I feel my pulses quicken. "I. John, was in tho island that is called Patinns." It is a pile of rocks twenty-eight miles in circumfer ence. A few C3'pre.ssc and inferior olives 1 imp a living out of the earth, and One' palm tree tqtrcods It foliage. Rut the b-irrenness and gloom nnd loneliness of the island made It n prison for the banished evangelist Dhniitinn cduld mil stand his ministry and one day, under nnnt-'J guard, that minister of the gospel stepped from" a tossing lKat to these dismal rocks and walked up to the dismal cavern which was to le his home, and the place where shntild pass before him all th" conflicts of tho coming eternity Is it not remarkable- that nearly .ill the great revelations of music and fotry and religion hive been made to men in banishment Horner and Mi ton ban- ished into blindness; Reethoven ban ished into deafness; Dante writing his "Rivann Cjmmcdia" during his nineteen years of banishment from his native land; Victor Huo writing hi "I.s Miserables"cxi.cd from home and country on the island of Guernsey and tha brightest visions of the future have been given to those who by sickness or sorrow were exiled from the outer world into room of .suffering nr thoc who havo ben imprisoned by very hard surrounding have had great revelations made to them. So Pat-nos wild, clrll nnd bleak ami terrible. was the lwst i-'.and in all the archipelago, the Kst place in all the earth for divine n relations Reforc a panorama can b successfully .cen. the room In which you sit tnut 1 darkened and i 1 the presence of John x. as to pa such a panorama as no man tver U'fore aw or ever will sec tit this world, ami hence the tfloom of hLs urroundng was a hep rather than a hindrance. Ail the surround ings of the plare affected St. John imagery when he speaks of Heaven. L John, hangry frm cnt-yreci ab stinence, or having no food except that at which his appetite' revolted, think of Heaven, and as the famished man Is apt todream of bountiful tables eoverc 1 with luxuries o St John s-yf lllc 1 habitants of Heavon: "They shall han ger no more." Scarcity of freb wat-r on Patmoa aud the hot toagn of St. John's thirst leads him to adm re Heaven, a he say: 'They shall thirst no more.. St John hear th wre of the sea wildly dashing against th rocks and each wave has a voice aad all the waves together make a choras aad they remind him of the tsaiiitod inoas antbemf. of HeaTen aad he sat: They are like the voice of saany wa ters. Ooe day a. h i'loked oS opoa the aca the water, were very smooth aad they were like glass and the scslight Kcnaed to jet tbeai on Sre. and there trxs a mingling of vsh'iU: light and in tense flame, and as St John looked 1 oat from his cavern booe opra that hrilliaot jca, he thoaght the .

And the inhabit ants never breathe a igh or utter a groan, or discuss a difference, or frown a dislike, or weep a tear. The fashion thc3 wear is pure white, ami their fore heads are encircled bj- garlands, an I they who were le an' well, an I they who were old aro young, and they who were lereft are reunited. My friends I would not wonder If you should have a very similar vision after awhile. You will be through tin world. Its cares and fatigues, and struggles, and if yon have served the Iord and have done the best roil eoutd. I should not wonder if your drng l"d were at Pa'.liios.
