l(f
Tlie mountain, divided into two peaks cfttlM'Gtea't ana little Ararat, forms an elliptical mass of about twenty-five tniles in length fr( mm orth west to southeast, and about Im 1 that width. Little Ararat is an/elegant cone or pyramid, rising with steep, smooth, regular sides into a comparatively sharp peak. Great Ararat is a hcige, broad-shouldered mask more like a dome than a cone, supported by strong buttresses, and throwing out rough ribs or ridges of rock that stand out like knotty mUsclcfs, from its solid trunk. The latest mark which the hand of Nature has set upon this mighty mountain was made in 1840, and the storv is a pathetic one. Near the mouth of the great chasm, with its crown of tremendous precipices, there formerly stood a pleasant little Armenian village, of two hundred houses, named Aghurri. The dwellers there were pastoraljpeople like their forefathers, who fedf their flocks in the Alpine pastures and cultivated a few fields which were watered bv the glacier-stream. They claimed that the vine which bore these delicious grapes was Father Noah's own, and that tne ancient willow, the pride of the village, had sprung from one of the planks of the Ark. The little monastery of St Jacob had for eijzht huudred year* stood just above the village, on the spot where the legend had appeared to the monk. With the exception of the wandering Kurds, the inhabitants Of Aghurri were the only dwellers On tho mountain in their village its traditions centered, and there they were faithfully preserved. Thus Mr. Bryee relates the fate of thi happy mountain village: "XoWards fnnset in the evening of the 21st of:June, 1840, the sudden shock of an earthquake, accompanied by a subterranean roar,
and followed by a terrific blast of wind threw down tlie houses of Aghurri, aim at the same time detached enormous masses of roek with their subjacent Ice from the cliffs that snrround the chasm. shower of falling rocks overwhelmed MSL an instant tlie village, the monastery, and a Kurdish encampment ou the pna* tares above. Not a soul survived to tell the ta^e. Four days afterwards, the masses of snow ahd ice that had been precipitated into the glen, suddenly melted, and forming an irrc^Ktfble torrent of water and mod, swept along the channel of tlie stream and down the outer slope* of the mountain, far away into the Ara* Plain, bearing with them huge blocks, and covering the ground for miles with a deep bed of inad and gravel. Since then, H** hut* Save again arisen, fo me what !o«er down tlie elope than the site of old Aghurri here dwell a few Tartars, and pasture their cattle on the sides of the valley, which grass has again begun to clothe. But Noah's Tine and the primeval willow, and tlie Utile u:ttwtery where jPeirot lived eo happily, among the few old monks who bad retired to this hallowed spot from the troubles of the world, are gone forever no (l*ri»tbun bell is heard, uo C&risttan aervic* feud upon tlie Mountain of the Ark.*-

Greek Women and Greek Costumes. How picturesque are the costumes that greet tne eve! In Atheus it is daily* more and more aare to «a0«t with any-: thing but*the ordinary Ifcropean dress} in these Bnmll towns .ft»e mhabitants preserve,.faithfully their old traditions Let us walk iuto the streets on Sunday to see the Greek dressiaits brilliancy there is a variety and luxury perfectly astonishing" when it is Considered that all the riches of many lie in what they wear. The fi^tanfeil^, a sort of white' cotton petticoat, 'fastened round thei waist in a* tliousand folds, is the same for the .pal&cjiri axul the peasant, and is unoniameiited. The belt, always of silk,1 is wide aix4,}oug, einbroilei,ed witli gold# The waistcoat is.of the gmiterst variety, bf black velvet Or any. cplored sjlk, with rourid buttons' to match, and braided in the most fantastic pat tern^--as fi.^vit remarked, a brtll of- String gone into fits." A very short vest sometimes -leaverthe nifck open, or is fimtened by a dou.We buWon. This is the 'richest part of the ^costume tlie sides and back are covelred with embroidery of silk mingled with gold and silver. In the dress of some ri,oh people the original stuflf is entirely hidden under a mass of gold braid, spdi an article costing about seventy .pounds, antl wide open sleeves, also einoroitiered, show the silk shirt Gaiters fall over a patent-leather boot, meeting tlit silk trousers below the knee, where they are fastened by silk garters, which are generally a chef-d'cehvre of exquisite workmanship. The fesc is the headgear for all alike, only varying in the richness of the black, blue, or gold tassel, soMiietimeS fastened by a diamond clasp. Few women have preserved Greek attire they have bowed down to the fashions of Paris in most of the towns, but. at Delphi and around Mount Parnassus some peasants retain the distinctive character. Richer even in orna•eiit than those of their husbands, they area family treasure, transmitted from generation to generation. The youfig women, with the long plaits of black hair falling overth^ir shoulders, adem themselves on the days of great religious solemnity. At the occasion of a marriage a very long silk chemise is bound round thti waist with a belt and 3ilver clasp the mantle, open in front, Talis straight down without sleeves, showing the neck and a bright-colored apron descends to the ankle. Buckles of precious stones or chased metal and other rich ornaments fasten the chemise^ whilst necklaces of antique coins ornament the neck, the brow, and the hair, fastening back an exquisitely embroidered veil. Much has been said in praise of Grecian beauty, and die men are handsome in every sense of the word we might well imagine them to have been the models of Phidian and Praxiteles. Their large eyes, black as jet, sparkle with glances of fire, whilst the long silky eyelashes soften the expression and give a dreamy appearance of melancholy. Their teeth are small, white, and well set a flue, regular profile, a pale olive complexion, and a tall, elegant figure realize at accompli shea type of distinction. As io the ^omen, they seem to have left, physical perfection to the men some jjoswess fine eyes and lu irf bat as rule they have bad figurun, and sooie defect in the face generally SJKM!* the good features. It if among them, howevrr, that the old Oriental ru.«toouj are most strictly preserved whilst the men are jmtdually mtdeiyottig tlie proeett* of j:iv*li«ation, they iu amoral |oiat of vr'ew remain stationary, and arts jtast as they were fiftj years ago.
