The Finest Mountain R A Terrible Feet adin the World— 11,000 From Amphitheater, Kazbhek Europo to Asia. Above The from through the Caucasus was built by the Czar in 1859, and it to be the finest mountain road in the world. It is so wide that two post-wagons, drawn highway is said by four horses abreast, can pass at full speed at any place by night or day. The macadam road-bet graded 1 a railway, and its surfac as large: the boulevards of Paris. [t was by this celebrated military thorough that we entered the Dariel Pass. The horses dashed around a bend in the road, and suddenly stopped before a post-station. These government houses, which are well-constructed of cut stone, with sheet-iron roofs painted green, have been built from eight to fifteen miles apart along the entire route through the Caucasus. Horses, rwagons and drivers are changed every station, unless the traveler fortunate enough to own his veh cle; then only a change of horses and driver is nece< The toll for trans- portation is one and a half cents a verst—a distance of about two-thirds ofamile. Each passenger is supposed tc have a permit, or way-bill, from the government, which he must show in addition to his regular passport. This imperial order for horses is supposed to enable one to travel with little de- lay; but the post-makers along the route always make it a point to com- pel one to wait as long as possible, and unless liberal fees are given one may be detained two orthree days at a station. We had traveled but ten miles, yet the character of the spring- less vehicle was such that we felt as if we had been pounded by machinery. An officer of the government who was traveling with us ordered fresh horses harnessed at'once, and in a few mo- ments their steel shoes were ringing on the road. The scenery grew rapidly bolder, and mountains that seemed lofty but half an hour before sank out of sight as we ascended the canon. In places the roadway was a mere groove cut in the sides of appalling precipices, with the river breaking into foam a thou- sand feet below. As our horses gal- loped around one of these buttresses a mighty amphitheater opened directly before us, on one side of which a little midway between the river and the heavens. It was the road. Looking across the measureless abyss, We saw a caravan of freight wagons toiling up this channel, chiseled in the side of the mountain. All the artillery wagons and the great siege-guns that thundered against Kars and the heights of Soubatan passed over this road. More than two thousand vehicles were notch was seen moving between Vladi-Kavkas and Alexandropol. They stopped for nothing but avalanches and dead horses; neither dark- ness nor storm delayed their prog- ress. Some were loaded with powder and shells; others earried clothing and medical supplies. But none of these great wagons nor swiftly running post- horses impeded us The magnificent mountain boulevard over which we were traveling was often broad enough for three teams to pass. Sometimes, however, a line of two-wheeled Asiatic carts drawn by bullocks refused to yield the customary share of the road, aud as the post-wagons swept by them the Tartar drivers lashed the Arabs in the face with their Cossack whips, and Viadi-Kavkas | | sumed separates river, the vill ty sank into the depths of the canon, dus came Kazbek, theo mnipres- ent, seemed to rise in the heavens as As we went from him ad Th soon into tl Bee ie - vet the re 1?

At intervals the mist was entirely blown away, and then the great moon appeared, shedding splendor over the wilderness of snow. We were now approaching the land of the Georgians, where the mountains faced the hot plains of Armenia, and id the melting glaciers are inex- pressibly beautiful. There were doubts about the propriety of making the de- seent during the night, but an official ured us that the road was broad and weM guarded by a heavy wall. Atways ready, the word given, and be- fore we were fairly seated, bells jingled, and the horses were off at the top of their speed. ; Just after leaving the station on the summit a succession of faint distant lights appeared in the void beneath us. ‘‘What are they—hunters’ fires?” we asked. “It’s the moon shining on the river Aragva, fifteen versts below,”” said the officer; and by straining our eyes a ribbon of lace-like film ap- peared and disappeared in the bot- tom of the black abyss. It was the celebrated river Aragon of ancient his- tory, but its roaring waters were too far away tobe heard. Our wild midnight ride was too exciting for dozing, yet it was not long before the strain on our nerves produced a reaction, and sleep soon followed. It continued for three hours, but it seemed only a few minutes. There was a brief little dream of falling down strange mountains, then a sudden awakening by yells from the driver. The station Mleti had been reached, and with wondering thoughts we alighted under an arch of climbing jasmines. The air was perfumed with pleasing We odors, the architecture of the h was picturesque, and we were in a the cars y. All rished.

It entirely shadowed the Georgian vil- lage. “Do you see that overhanging erag in the clouds?” asked the engi- neer, pointing upward toa far-away peak. *Yes."’ “That is the place we left at midnight."* This statement seemed incredible, but it was true, for on our return trip in the autumn we ascended \his most marvelous of all roads, and found that from its summit one could toss an apple into the very streets of Mleti. A finer example of a military coad up the face of a mountain is yet to be found. Still it is a remarkable fact that the educated engineers who blasted out the zigzag channels for the i-bed up and down the precipice saw all the grading done with ordinary wooden shovels of Asia, which are only tipped with steel. Wooden shovels, military schools, dynamite, and spring- less post-wagons fairly illustrate the loxes of Russian civilizatic Meeker, in Harper's Magazine. — —_—__~«>— -A contempor. cow can Le ¢ er that commands her nose, with difficulty bv a rove around her horns. that a A HIDEOUS BEAST.

What an Enemy of the Feline Family to Say About Kitty. It is impossible to get up any ene thusiasm over a cat; a mild interest is all that can be expected, except, per- haps, from that class of women to whom this animal is a sort of diety, such as it was to the Egyptians. Cats are colorless in character as compared with dogs, they have no deep feeling; one can hardly imagine them grieving unto death for the loss of their owner; and although they have a confiding way of rubbing themselves against people, it always seemed to me as if there was some underhand motive for such — manifestations. At the best puss is but passively emotional, and when she comes purring round there is a sense of physiological rather than of personal attachment. I think the essentially unimpressible nature of the animal was well suggested in old George Vithers’ saying: ‘Care will kill a cat,”’ and it has sometimes seemed as if it might be well to try the experi- ment on a large scale. The home feel- ing which appears at fi sight to be a strong point in fayor of the cat, turns out on examination to be rather against heron the score of genuine emotion. It is an attachment to places rather than to persons, a lonely garret where she has once lived being more attractive to her than the society of her benefactors. Even in her especial field of usefulness the cat is by no means the paragon of skill and _— efficiency she is too often — represent- ed; a terrier will - eclipse her as aratter, and she is too easily spoiled by indulgence to keep up a reputation as a mouser. In fact, the cat has become an sesthetic orngment, the pride of apothecary stores and the glory of drawing-rooms, instead of being the protector of kitchen and cel- lar. There are cats like the Persian, and a species called the ‘Coon,”’ in- digenous to Maine, which are very decorative and seem to enjoy the rib- bons which are lavished upon them, and yet there is astealthy, covert man- ner about them which is by no means attractive. I always feel that the tiger element is latent in the most demure and peaceful cat. And yet a waggish friend of mine insists upon it that all re sans reproche, while cheerfully Imitting that none of them are sans purr.—Boston Transcript. ee its One Good Feature.
