The wife of tho writer had n eousiu, a lady of extremely nervous and excitable nature, who many yeais ago was staying with her husband lor tho season in npnit meuU near Hydo rail:. Tho landlady was a middle-aged woman, apparently n widow ; at any rate, she dressed in black ; and no one who could in any way be re garded as a landlord was ever visible. Indeed, except tho husband of my wife's cousin nnd a hid who did odd jobs about the house, thero was not ono of the male sex upon tho promises. For somo weeks no untoward incident of auy kind hap pened ; tho beasou progressed merrily, and my wife's relatives, whom I may call Mr. nnd Mrs. W (I beliovo they were upon their honey-moon, or, at all events, fn thoeaily and ciilhusinstiostago of mat rimony), enjoyed tho round of Loudon gayetiea without stint. One evening. however, Mrs. W was dressing to go to tho oncra. bho was alono in theehnm- ber her husband having, with tho supe rior celerity that pertains to tho mascu line toilet, completed his attire and de scended to the drawing-room when to uso her own words, "a strange sensation of terror came over me.

A correspondent of tho Lowiston, Maiuo, Joitrnttt, writing about things seen iu tho Valley of tho Jordan, says : It takes fourteen horses nnd mulesi to tako us two Americans through l'alestino in comfort. Wo havo good beds, good tents, kitchen aud cooking utensils, quite an amount of baggage all to bo carried ou tho backs of mules. Eight or ten Arabian Moslems, partly from Damascus and partly from Jerusalem, nro in our train. Our cook is a Latin Christian, formerly cook in a hotel iu Jerusalem and an excellent cook ho in. Our drago man Ward is captain of our caravan. Ho buys vegetables, chickens nnd bread of tho Arabs, en route. IIo takes English canned goods nnd other supplies.

Wo pay twenty dollars a day for our special caravan, which includes tributes to tho sheiks, buckshecsh, special guards of tlio Bedouin tribes through whoso territory wo pass, good food, beds nnd every comfort possiblo on tho jour ney. By roughing it a littlo more, ono could travel for half tho cost ; but the best iu this land, is not too luxurious even for plain peoplo. Tho heat to-day ii excessive. But wo mtisi not .stay for that. It is always an oven, this Jordan valley, and wo must uso sun umbrellas and gird ourselves iu light marching order for tho trip. AVo nro tip at 5.30 o'clock, and break fast at six a good breakfast of omelette, mutton chop, colfeo, bread and butter and fruit and sweets.

There is a straggling encampment of black coat's hair tents, looking moro liko debilitated rag fair than anything else miserable and filthy, dog and Ilea nnd vermin infested hauuts. A few donkeys, goats and bheep wander among tho stuh lile. Clouds of pigeons fly overhead, and I hear the crowing of a cock and the cackle of hens.

Nothing greets his vision, however, and his haggard fenturcs already reflect tho despair that is upon him. '"No sign of water," hp moans, in a husky voice. His brain rneis, ho sways uneasily on his liorbe, but recovers himself almost as with supcihiimtn cubit. For three days ho has been wandering over tho dreary wasto with no trail to guide him, nnd with not a tree or shrub largo enough to shelter him from the bchorching rajs of tho sun by day, and the howling of coyotes mak ing sleep to fearful a thing to bo indulg ed in at night.

IIo stirs up his exhausted animal, his blood Hows more rapidly through his veins, and several miles moro nro traveled. Alas! tho beautiful vision was a trick of his im agination a mirage of tho desert. His head dropped. IIo was consuming with a horrible, burning thirst. His horse, nearly nu weak as the rider, stumbles ami halts with difficulty he regains his feet, but the man lies on the ground still. Is he dead? No, but his limbs havo lost their strength, his scorching, parched touguo whispers huskily, "Water." He becomes crazed ; he raves and tosses over the hard sand, snlleriug the very tolturcs cfhell.
