In the shoe bazaar. This was formerly a school, an interesting building now in a very dilapadated condition. The gateway, however, is still preserved.

The temple at Deir el 'Ashâir. It stands on a platform of massive masonry, one hundred and twenty-six feet long by sixty-nine feet wide, and about twenty feet high on the eastern side, which faces Mount Hermon. The village is inhabited by a few families of Druses and Christians.

The rocks at Sarâbít el Khâdim ; and the temple enclosure. There are two temples, of different dates. The one not shown here is formed of two chambers excavated in the rock, having a walled continuation in front.

Wady-el-Jib, a characteristic example of a valley in the favoured territory of Ephraim. The olive-trees, shading the ancient foot-paths, proclaim that a village is near.

The large plane-tree, Damascus. It is nearly forty feet in circumference. A peasant and his plough are resting against it, and in its shade a carperter is working, steadying his bow saw with his naked foot.

The gorge of the Bûrada (Abana), through which the new French road approaches Damascus. At the outlet of this gorge the stream is divided into seven branches, two of which supply the fountain in the city, and the rest are used to irrigate the fields and gardens.
