Her mother sighed, and sai<h u AVe have m wait a while longer, and then we shall sec our darling LnCy. But I’ll tell you now ahontthis little boy. ■ It seems that Elisha was traveling around from one town to another, and one day ho came to a place call ed Sbcmem, where a good woman lived who feared and loved God; so she loved to do good to any of God’s prophets, and she asked Elisha, ‘can’t you come and eat dinner with, us F Elisha said yes, mid went there, aud she had so good a dinuer that he thought it a nice place to stop at, and so he used to stay there when ever he passed along. The house was small, and the woman and her liusbaud said to each other, 4 We like this man, aud we are glad to have him vugt us* aud so we must, build liPbtbefnooiti for him to stay in when he happens to come here at night.’ So they fixed a nice chamber, and put in a bed, a table amt chair, and a candlestick on the table, all ready for Elisha. The next time the prophet came, he went into the room and took a good uap of sleep, for he was tired. When he woke up he thought to himself, ‘I would like po bn able to repay this womau for her kindness. „I must as lie ^ ^ r p ... wodlai, Itrd tiben she came, he said, ‘You have beam very kind to thitik about thy comfort in this manner, iwdfr'de take so much trouble for me- Can \ do any thing for you!

The bridge was uot in- “Yes, they hurried ou very quickly, ferior to any of the other buildings “No ; sir,” could not, awd at died! Then she took him up stairs and laid him on the bed in the prophet’s room,, and shot the door. Then she said to a servant, ‘go saddle me au ass that t may ride and find the man of God, and .tell him my dear hoy is dead.’ Then her husband seat a man on another ass with her, and she said, ‘drive fast now, aud go forward and don’t stop for me.’ “I esfpect* tbaftbey rode on in a aud before a great while they came to Mount Carmel, where the prophet lived. Elisha saw her coming, and he said to Gehazi, ‘Behold, yonder comes that Shuunmite woman. 1 wonder what’s the matter, run quick ly and see, and say to her, Is it well with thee ! Is it well with thy hus band f Is it well with thy child f So Gehazi his servant went to meet her, aud asked her just what tjie prophet told him to say, and she an- swered him, ‘It is well.’ Then she came to Elisha aud fell at his feet. When Gehazi wanted her to get up aud go away, Elisha said, let her be. She is troubled about something, and I dou’t kuow what it is, for the Lord has not told me, The j»oor mother told him that her dear boy was dead! Elisha said to Gehazi, ‘fix yourself up quickly and take my stall iu your hand, and don’t you stop to speak to any body by the way, aud go to this woman’s house nud lay my staff on the child.’ Then the mother said to Elisha, ‘As the Iaml iiveth, 1 shan't leave you. You must go too.’ Then the prophet went along also, bdt Gehazi marched on with the staff, and he thought and perhapa said, 4 I eau work miracles too. I’ll raise up this boy myself.’ So be went up to the dead child as it lay in the room aud put the stall on it, but Gehazi was not a good man, like the prophet, and dtd not pray to the Lord, and so the Lord did not au swer him. Tbeu he went and met Elisha and said, ‘I can’t waken the boy.’ So Elisha went up to the room and shut the door, and prayed to the Lord to send the soul back frbm heaven to the boy, and let him live longer in the world, for his mother’a^sake. Then he lay down and brew bed his breath into the child's ip^rrilj, and put his hands on kgejfaiyjiiiaiMls to warm them, and pinvert to the Lord, and the tosh of tho little boy began to get warm. Then Elisha knew the Iajvd would auswer his prayer, ami he breathed on the child and stretched himself on him’ again, to make him warm. Presently the little boy sneezed seven times, and opened his eyes and lived. Then Elisha called to his mother aud said, ‘Here is your son ; ’ a - sct -“fo was from terrace to terrace, the Lord lias again giveu to you.’ ^’* v Hlj iirs ten feet wide. The whole in beauty and magnificence. It was a furlong in length, and built with wonderful art. f To supply the defect of a foundation in the bottom of the river, which was saudy, the arches were made with huge stones fastened together with chains of iron ami melted lead. Before building the bridge, the workmen turned the course of the river, leaviug the ohun- uel dry, digging on the West Baby lon a prodigious artificial lake, forty miles square, 1(10 In circumference, and thirty-five feet deop, to prevent the foundation of the Euphrates from overflowing the city, making two canals above the town some considerable distauce,. and raising immense banks ou each side of the river. Nitocris, the daughter in-law of Nebuchadnezzar, built-the two gates, the bridge and the lake. At the end of the bridge, were two palaces, which had communication with each other, by a vault, built under tho channel of tho river, at the tiitie of its being dry. Tbe old palaoe, which stood on each side of the river, was three miles in com pass. Tho new palace, was on the West side of the river, aud was seven miles iu compass. It was surrounded with three walls, oue within another, with considerable space between them. Those walls, as also those of the other palaces were embellished with a great va riety of sculptures, representing all kinds of animals, to $he life. Among the rest was a enrions banting piece, in which Semipimis, on horseback, was throwing her javelin at a leo pard, aud her husband, kiug Nidus, pierced a lion. In this last palace, were the hanging gardens, so celc brated among the Greeks, Antis, the wife of Nebuchadnezzar, having been bom in Media, for slu* was the daughter of kiug Astyages, being much delighted with the mountains and forest/ of that country, Nebu chadnezzar caused the hanging gar dens to to* built to please her.. They contained a square of 100 feet on every side, and were carried up in the manner of terrace*, oue aliove The coffee of coinuioroo is tho seed of a small evergreen tree iudigeoOus to Southern AbtAslnlft and Liberia. It belougs to thq order einclionacc, the same order from which quin foe is derived. The plant commences to bear iu the. fourtu year, and contin ues bearing for about twenty years. There is oue main crop in each year, hut like other tropica) fruits of the same si>ooiee, Hovers and ripe berries am to be found on the tree* at all seasons. The r po fruit resembles tho cherry, both ifii size and color, but contains two sends instead of one. A These seed* are mbeddod in a pulp, which, at u certain stage of the jripeulng, is eatible. (’offec is im proved by allowing the pulp to re main on the seed until perfectly dry. The deinauds of trade, however, will not permit the time necoesmMPy for drying natorally ; hence the berries are gathered am spread out in the sun to dry, after Which the dry cov ering is removed i»y machinery.

They did not have the same privileges that Sabbath-school scholars have now, aud iu old tunes before the Lord came on earth, he used to teach the people by his prophets, telling them what to do aud to say.” “I ktoow that the little boy’s mother was glad,” said Susie, “for I kuow bow rqjaiced.we should have been if Lucy could have come back to life. “Ah yes! but now miracles have ceased, aud we must^ ait until the resurmstiou day before our friends will arise from their graves.

From the twenty-five gates in each side of the great square, weut twen ty-five streets in straight lines to the gates, so that tbe whole number of streets was fifty, each fifteen miles, whereof twenty-five weut one way and twenty-five tho other, directly crossing each other at right angles. Besides these, there were four half streets, which had houses on each side, aud the wall on the other. These went round the four sides of the city, next the walls, anil*each of them was two hundred feet broad; the rest were about 160. By these streets thus crossing each other, the whole city was divided into 676 squares, each of which was two miles in circumference. Bound these squares, on every side toward the street, stood the houses, which were contiguous, but had void spaces be tween them, all built three or four stories high, and beautiful with all manner of ornaments, toward the streets. The space within the inid* die of each square was employed for yards, gardens, aud other such uses, so that Babylon was greater iu ap pearance than -in reality; nearly one half of the city being used for gar dens and other cultivated lands. A branch of the Euphrates ran across the city, from north to south. On each side of the river was a quay, and a high wall built of bricks and bitumen, of the same thickness of tbe wkll that went round the city. Iu these walls, over against each street that led to the city, w ere gates of brass, open all tbe day-time, and closed at nighty for the convenience of “the inhabitants who crossed the pile was sustained by \ast arches raised upon other arches, one above i auother, and strengthened by a wall, j surrounding it on every* sale, ofi twenty-two feet in thickness. On the top of the arches were first laid large fiat stones, sixteen feet long, and tcyr feet broad j over them* w as a layer of reeds, mixed with a great quantity of bitumen, upon which were two rows of brick*, closely ccuicutcd together with plaster. The whole was covered with thick sheets of lead, upou which was laid tbe mould of the garden. All this Moorage was contrived to keep the moisture of the mould from running away through the arches. The earth laid thereon was so deep, that the greatest trees might take root in it; and with such the terraces were covered, as well as with other plants and flowers that wore proper to adorn a pleasure garden. In the upper terrace there was an engine, or kind of pump, by which water was drawn up out of tlie river, and from this the whole garden was watered. Iu the spaces botween the several arches, ni>on which this entire structure rested, were large and maguifloeut apartments, tlmt were very light, anil bad the advan tage of a beautiful prospect. Another of the great work* of Babylon was the temple of Belus, which stood near the old palace. It was most remarkable for a prodigious tower that stood iu the middle of it. At the foundation it was a square of half a mile in the whole compass, Aud,a furlong iu height. It consisted of eight towers, built one above an other, decreasing , regularly to the top, for which reason Btrabo calls the other a pyramid.
