This work has now been going on somewhat intermittently for mote thau ' twelve months and is at the present time m active progress uuder " the direction - of Professor Masper'cfs successor, M." Greiiaut. '"A tramway has been laid down from Sphinx to the edge of the pyramid plateau, passing close under the west face of the granite building popular ly though incorrectly called the Temple of the Sphinx, Along the tramway light trucks convey the sand iu the point at which their con tents are discharged, the trucks be iug headed bv Apibs of both sexes and ad ayes, who carry the sand up on their heads in large flat baskets, ascending and deeeuding ail day long from the excavations below to the tramway above, and vice versa. 1 tie means Iook curiously luddcjuaie, but the results are astonishing.

Between the Sphinx and the edge of ti e py a nid plateau a vast space has aiso been cleared, thus bringing to v;aw a tine flight of ottps forty feet in width. These steps, which are described by Hiny, were uncovered, by Cavigiia in 1817, but have been entirely lost to sight for nearly seventy years.

The space be uveeii the paws is thirty-live feet i.itig and ten wide. This space anciently converted into small sanct uary, lined with yotive tablets, only one of which the famous stela of Tiioaioiiies 1 yet remains in situ. Tins stela records how the king, when upon on of his hunting expedition:-, lay down to rest in the shadow of the Sphinx. He there iell asleep, and dreamed a dream in which the vetierabie image conjured turn to clear away sand m which it was nearly buried. Then the prince awoke and inaue stance in nis heart, "aud resolved to do that which the god had commanded. The paws of the Sphinx, as they how appear, are a restoiation ol lio'.nan uate, being cased in compar atively small slabs, and to gome ex it nt hollow underneath. The tireast ol the Sphinx has likewise been laced with slabs, apparently in Roman times; and these slabs have again been repaired by cutting away the weathered surface and inserting a fresh facing. Like the legs of the Colossi of the Plain and those of the great statues at Ajoo Simbel, the paws of the Sphinx are covered with the Greek scrawls of early travelers; but these Graffi-ti are mostly of a late period, and so slightly scratched that few are legible throughout.

THE PLATFORM. The platform sends greeting to Brazil on the emancipation of her slaves, and to the home rule party in Ireland, each sentiment being anpiauded enthusiastically. The words: '"We are uncompro mising in favor of the American system of protection," were re ceived with loud and prolonged cheering, all the delegates being on their feet. The platform demands reduction oi letter postage to one cent, con demns the democratic administra tion for its attempted demonetiza tion ot silver, lor .he surrender ol the fishing privileges, and its spirit of hostility to pension legislation. T.ie platform was adopted by a rising vote on motion of Marine, of Maryland. ROLL CALL. At 11 :1C the roll call for nomina tions began.

When first tken from their fastnesses sponges appear and leel like pieces of ra' soit liver, be ing slippery, elastic, ugly and repul sue.. In color they range from dirty pur ple to dull chocolate. Having been brought to the deck of the lisherman's schooner the sponges are washed, rubbed an t dried. They are then strung on j strands, aud are washed down thre.j times a day, until the sohoouer reach es one of its crawls. Crawls are half-submerged stock ades of .aplings, generally aspodillas and uufamilar sub-tropical growths, bound together by manna and pal metto tiber. The catch is deposited in these and kept uuder the wat .r until the vessel makes its final roui: i and draws its deposits, prepaiatory to taking thtin to Nassau. Spouges are extraordinary plenti ful in this part of the globe. It may surprise anybody who has just paid a dollar or so for a bath or sponge at -i Broadway drug store to learn that he could duplicate it in Nassau for 7 cents, or buy a strand of simil.n: sponges, fresh from a corl reef, for (iO ceuts. That is one reason why bo ! many are. taken home by sagacious tourists as "trifles I picket! up in Nassau." A sponge famine would be more disastrous in tiie Bahamas than thu August hurricane. The trade amounts to more than 250,000 annually, and is more important than the fruit groing industry. Over 5,000,000 sponges, are annually dragged from the sea. The dusky aunties who pre side over Bahama kitchens use tho articles as dish rags aud towels. Sponges are used impartially foi household articles in ways sometiim s startling.

The climax is capped whenone oi the dainty lingers of a cup sponge is offered as a cigar-holder. The prominence of the sponge in dustry is shown by the cargo list of 1; si steamer which left Nassau for New York. Ti e vess 1 was theCIen tnegos, and the pursers entries were I3'.I4: ba'es sponge 30 bales sponge clip pings, 42 barrels of oranges, lOilS crate s tomatoes, lit crates eassayes,24 crates peas, 2 crates egg plants, 2 barrels yams. 2 boxes perserves, 4 barrels sea shells, 4i! head green tin tie, S34 n soee'e aud six pas e igers.

Jones's A couple from Davie county, N. -C, Mr. and Mrs. Coon, who" were married a few weeks ago, are roam ing through that fctate begging bread. Coon at the time was a pauper in the Davie county poor house and his wife was the cook. He said he paii a Baptist preacher 2, all the money he had, to marry them. Their first bridal tour was to Morganton to visit a cousin of Mrs. Coon, who was there in the asylum, and thence they tramped to Hickory, where they applied to the ' authorities to let them rest, awhile in the poorhouse of that county. Coon seems matter-of-fact iu his views of the holy passion. Be ing asked if it was a case of love at lirst sight, he said : "No,. I allers did like Sally ; she made sich pow erful good fritters." "And I liked him bekase he loved 'em," smiled Mrs. Coon. They can live on love and a cracker a day. Chicago Times. tU-partce ot a Kothschild. The following story of the late Baron James de Rothschild has recently found its way into print, for the first time, 1 believe, and as it shows his bonhomie and readv wit, I give it: A well-known French traveler, on his return from Fiji, happened to call on the baron, and the latter, always on the look out for information, pressed him for matters of interest concerning that country. After much hesita tion, the visitor at length remarked that, what had struck him most was that there were no Jews and no pigs absolutely whatever in the. island. "Let us go there together, dear bov," quicklv answered Sir James. " We shall make a fortune." ' - U r: v.
