Several years ago, James Birchard, of
Darien, Conn., was severely ill. The
doctors said he was in Consumption,
and that they could do nothing for him,
but advised him, as a last resort, to try
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. After taking
this medicine, two or tliroc months, he
was pronounced a well man. His health
remains good to the present day. '
J. S. Bradley, Malden, Mass., writes :
“ Three winters ago I took a severe cold,
which rapidly developed into Bronchitis
and Consumption. I was so weak that
I could not sit up, was much emaciated,
and coughed incessantly. I consulted
several doctors, but they wore power

’ When he went to' bis home that
the labor of tunneling went on until
(iiite one hundred feet of the antique
masonry had been broken up and
brought to the light. The workmen
began to murmur then, and even
openly rebelled against pursuing
such a fruitless task any further But
they were forced to push on. One
day ns some of them wrought despair
ingly at the inner end of their excava
tion they heard a strange noise be
yond them whDh resembled tlie fall
ing of a great stone in a hollow space,
it seemed incredible. Though alarmed
beyond measure they were forced by
their persistcilt master to go on with
the enterprise. Hammers, fire and
vinegar were employed with renewed
vigor again and again until a walled
surface yeilding to their efforts, the
way opened to a low narrow descen
ding passage. Leaping into the dark
avenue with lighted torch, they dis
covered at once the fallen stone Which
had led them on. It had dropped
from tlie roof to the floor, and re
vealed the fact that there was just
beyond it another passage following
Southward like the other ascending
instead of descending; but alas! it wa*
closed by a series of huge granite
plugs placed there by the builder fur
the very purpose oi heading offi such
ent rprises as that of the adventurous
1 a j Caliph.
Nothing daunted however the
plucky Saracens broke a side passage
through the Western wall of of lime
stone, cut a huge chasm upward and
made a junction with the wall of the
ascending passage where the granite
did not oppose. They cut through the
limestone wall with comparative ease,
but as fast as they removed the pieces
of t-ho' Jvcl! f rmocl Mocks otht'r® cam;
down from above and continued to
bar their advance. The despairing
men g ive way, but their unrelenting
master drove them back to their work
forbidding them to stop until the
mysterious blocks ceased to fall be
fore them, though the reservoir from
which they dropped be held by the
hand of Allah himself. Finally the
last one made its appearance. Like its
predecessors, it was broken and re
moved and the passage was clear.
With lighted flambeaux the eager
Arabs ascended first on hands and
j knees and then after reaching the
Grand Gallery, hastened with might
and main upward and onward into
tho very heart of the mountain of
stone.
Visions of wealth giev, before them
—there where a ray of sunshine never
gave a ray of hope until they came
to the passage. Then a step at the left
three feet high arrested their attention
Climbing to its top a low door-

under this on hands and knees they

From the New York Times.
The combined movement of many
of the planters of the province of Ban
Paulo to set free all their slaves by
the end of the year 18*J0 is an impor
tant step in Brazilian emancipatior*.
Probably an aid to this project has
been the degree of success which has at
tended the few efforts made to obtain
free labor. A good sign also is the
fact that in one period of six months
nearly 10,000 immigrants from Europe
arrived there. A well known family
of Sun Paulo, possessing 500 slaves,
has determined to set them free at
Christmas of next year; and the influ
ence Of a iVvr |>rx>ruiw<l.«t'plan:crY wk*—
favor emancipation is felt among all
the rest. It was in this province, by
the way, that the successful escape of
a large number of slaves re
cently occurred. One draw
back to emancipation is said to be the
tact that ou many plantations the
slaves were qiortgaged to secure loans
from banks. The great coffee provin
ces are Rio Janeiro, Bahia, Ban
Paulo and Mlnas-Gerahs, and there
the agricultural problem connected
with the abolition of slave labor is
serious. But with the provisions of
the law continuing tlie labor of freed-
men for wages for a time, and with
tiie importation of hibnr, it is bopkd
that the cultivation of the crops will
go on without trouble after emancipa
tion.
