square miles, including Alaska; in

The highest monolith is the ob

The Chinese wall is the largest
wall in the world. It was built by
the first emperor of the Tain dy
nasty, about 220 B. C, as a pro
tection against Tartars. It trav
erses the northern boundary of
China, and is carried over the
highest hills, through the deepest
valleys, across rivers and every
other natural obstacle. Tts length
is 1,250 miles. Including a para
pet of 5 feet, the total height oi the
wall is 20 feet, thickness at the
base 25 feet and at the top 15 feet.
Towers or bastions occur at inter

The. largest library is the Bib

lets, 175,000 manuscripts, 300,000
maps and charts, and 150,000 coins
and medals. The collection of
engravings exceeds 1,300,000, con-
jtained in some 10,000 volumes.
The building which contains these
treasures is situated on the Rue
Richelieu. Its length i 540 feci.
its breath 130 feet. '1 he largest
library in Xew York, in respect of
separate woiks.is the Astor. About
190,000 volumes are on its shelves.
Among the most remarkable ,
natural echoes is that of Eagle's I
Xet, on the banks of Kilhuncy,
in Ireland, which repeats a bugle j
call until it seems to be bounded
from a hundred instruments; and
that on the Xaltu, between Bingen
and Cohlent, which repeats a
sound seventeen lime. The most
remarkable artificial echo known
is that in the castle of Simonetta,
about two miles from Milan. It is
occasioned bv the existence of two
parallel walls of considerable
length. It repeats the tcport of
a pistol sixty times.
The largest bell in the world is
the great bell of Moscow, at the
foot of the Kremlin. Its circum
ference at the bottom is nearly GS
feet, and its height more than 21
feet. In its stoutest part it is 23
inches thick, and its weight has
been computed to be 443,772
pounds. It has never been hung,
and was probably cast on the
spot where it now stands. A piece
of the bell is bioken cfi". The
fracture is supposed to have been
occasioned by water having been
thrown upon it when iieated b'
the building erected over it being
on fire.
The big bridge aci oss the Kinzua
chasm on the Erie extension, 15
miles south of Bradford, Ph., was
completed about three weeks ago,
and trains' will" soon be funning
over it. The bridge is a symmet
rical iron structure, and is the
highest in the world, the center
span being 301 feet in height, and
the length of the structure is2,0G0
feet. It was built by the Keystone
Bridge company of Phrenixville,
Pa. The completion of this bridge
gives the Xew York, Lake Erie
and "Western railroad direct com
munication to the coal field of
western Pennsylvania.
The largest cathedral in the
world is St. Peter's in Rome.
From the laying of its foundation
in 1450 until its dedication, one
hundred and seventy years were
consumed in Jts erection; and if we
include the work done under Pius
VI., three and a half centuries
passed before it was complete,
during which time forty-three
Popes reigned. The dimensions
of the church are: length or the
inteiior, G13A- feet; of transom
from wall to wall, 4.4.(5.1-feet; height
of nave, 152i feet; of side aisles,
47 feet; width of nave 77-S9 feet;
of side aisles, 334 feet; circumfer
ence of pillars which support the
dome, 253 feet. Tho height of the
dome from the pavement to the
base of the lantern is 405 feet
to the top of the cross -MS feet.
Thedomeis encircled and strength
ened by six bands of iron. A stair
way leads to the roof, broad and
easv enough to allow a horse and
team to ascend. The annual cost
of keeping the church in repair is
30,000 scudi.
Win. Ilersee, Esq., teal estate
agent, No. 5 Newark street, IIo
boken, New Jersey, says: 1 was
taken with severe pains in the
shoulders and right arm. After us
ing everything 1 could, and seeing
that instead of improving, it be
came worse, and that my arm was
beginning to become of little use
to me, I determined to make one
more attempt by using some St.
Jacobs Oil. Before the second bot
tle had been exhausted I was re
lieved of all my pains as if by mag
ic. I recommend it to all.
The purity nnd elogant orfunio
of Parker's Hair Balsam explain the
popularity of this reliable restorative.
