Alexandria MONDAY EVENING, DEC. 6. Discovery in Jerusalem.?A curious arch? logical discovery has just been made at Jerusalem The proprietor of a picce of ground outside the city, odc hundred and fifty yards north of the Damascus gate, and on the west of the north road, while digging a cistern on bis property, camo upon rock twelve and a half feet below the surface. It appeared to him to sound hollow when struck. He broke it through, and found beneath a series of sepulchral rock-cut chambers. They present nothing re markable in their structure, and oonsist of two irregular quadrilateral vaults, one of them being fifteen feet long by ten feet broad aod eight feet high, together with a third, thy plan of which is at present imperfect, aod under the smaller of the two vaults another, with three loculi occupying the whole of its urea, exca vated to a depth often feet below the first. But in the larger chamber was found a stone chest of very unusual dimensions, which con tained, when discovered, human bones. It is cut from a siDgle ttone, measures seven feet seven inches in length, two feet eight'inches in breadth, aod is three feet two inches in height. It stands upon four feet, and has the rim cut to receive the lid, portions of which?or what were believed to be portions?were lyioK in the chamber. The rock roof of the vault has been cut away to admit the chest, which Dr. Chaplin thinks is of much later date than the tombs. He suggests that it was constructed to hold a wooden or leaden coffiu, since rifled and removed. Near to this spct, and perhaps over it, stood the church dedicated to St. Stephen. "Is it possible," asks Dr. Chaplin, that we have here the lastjret?tiog place of Eudocia."? London Athameum. SAVE 25 PER CENT AND J3UY YOUR Wearing Apparel I.
