ThoTboat* which convoyed the party was, reached by de scending a_ flight of stops to the deptlipf abdut 45 feet. The boat, a flat-bottomed affair, was lighted by four lamps.. The sewer is an arch way, fifteen feet high, arid of equal breadth,, vvith .a ditch pi- canal , fibojit-fen foot wide, Wherein all the dirt and filth of Paris is car ried away,., ,0u thasides are sidewalks, which. is built of beautiful white sandstone, and is kept remarkably neat and,clean. No ‘stench nr ,-hnd smell was: : perceptible,!. The denser portion ,of the filth is carried oway ,through large draiiisjieneath tlib sidewalks. The side walks rire excolloht, and exhibited no signs of dampness, while the wall?) ,of tlip iWclnynyftre kept whitewashed, and are at all .times as white as .the driven show. The .structure possesses the properties of an, immenso, speaking' tube, the workmen being able to converse at tlio.dig tanco of two miles from each other. .; The echo is. very stroijg.and lasting. ' The fabric is said to he built,aftcr ( 'a model of the catacombs of Rome, aided by all the latest improvements. On both sides, at about; two hundred; yai;ds distance from one another, are,openings thfo’ whicli the workmen can ascend by means of permanent'iron ladders, in case, d sudden fain storm should cause the Water to rise over the sidewalks, which is,, however, "of fore occur rence. ••, The contents of the sewer of course flow inr to the river Seine, and the current is, snfiieient to carry the boat used nilong with considerable velocity. ‘ Largo reservoirs are constructed at intervals, into which tho water can he turned, for a short time in .case it should be nccosaa r to have the canal dry for a little, Tho -whole work was completed in two years. Resides the main canal, there arc many minor ones constructed under , the principal streets, nil of which can bo made to comriumicate with one another. These admirable underground works are accessible from the Louvre, the Tuillorios, and from all the, barracks, |and should the Parisians take a.notionto barricade the streets in hnypart of tlie,city, the Imperi al Government might, at, short notice, and without-any person being.‘aware oflt, traps port troops, if. there Is time tb mako' Use of the reservoirs, so can oaynlay also be tfans; portd the same way.; Tli'orois.nn end to shot ting on the soldiers from the windows, and a revolution in Paris will soon only bo remem bered among things that, hove boon, never, to occur again. _. Through- those Underground passages a prisoner can easily bo taken , from the.LoUvrotb the Seine, without attracting at tention, and thence sot , off by railway, which is nenrathand.

Amid tho Snow-Drifts. .A 8 I Ba t by the fire, one stormy November night in a hotel-parlor, in the Napa Valley of California, there came in a’venerable and be nignttnWooking person, with his; wife, taking their seats,in the circle. The stranger,.as I afterwards learned, was Captain Yout, a.man who came over into California, as a trapper, more than forty years ago. Hero he has lived, apart from the great world and its .questions, acquiring on immense landed estate,'and be coming a kind of acknowledged patriarch in the countryv His tall, manly person, and his gracious, paternal look, as totally unsophisti cated in the expression : as if he had never hoard of a.philosophic doubt or question in his life, marked him as the true patriarch. The conversation turned, I knoVv not how, on spir itism and modern necromancy ;■ and he dis covered an inclination to believe iu the report? ed mysteries.- His wife, a much younger and apparently Christian person, intimated that probably ho was predisposed to this, kind of faith by a very peculiar experience of his own; and evidently desired that lie might be drawn ou t by some intelligent discussion of his (iuo ries. ■ r . At my request, ho gave, me his About six or seven years previous, in a mid winter’s night, he had a dream, in which he saw what appeared to be a company of emi grants arrested by the snows of the mountains' and perishing rapidly by cold and Ho noted the very east of the scenery, marked by a huge perpendicular' front of white - rock chff; he saw the men ’ cutting off what ap- I neared to be tiee-tops rising out of deep gulfs; he distinguished the, very features of the per sons and the. look of their particular distress. He awoke profoundly impressed with the dis tinctness and apparent reality of, his dream. At length ho fell asleep arid, dreamed exactly the same dream' again. In the morning he could not expel it .from his mind. Falling in, shortly afterward, with .an 1 old hunter com rade, ho told him the story, and was orily.tho more impressed by his recognizing, without hesitation, the scenery of the dream. This comrade had come over the Sierra by the Car son Valley Pass and .declared that a spot in the Pass answered exactly: to his description. By this the unsophisticated patriarch was de cided,; . He immediately collected a company of men with mules and blankets and all. ne cessary provisions. .The neighbors wore laughing, meantime, at his credulity.— “Nb matter,” said he; “I am able'to do' this,' oand I will; for I verily bolievd that the fact is according to my dream.”.; The men were sent into the mountains, one hundred arid fifty rililßS.district,;,direct to, the Carson Valley Pass; and there they foiind the Com pany in exactly the, condition 'of .the dredrii, and brought in the remnant alive. A gentleman present said to mo, “ You need'have no doubt of this, for we ■'Califor nians all know; the facts and the nariics of the families brought in, who now look .upon our .venerable friend as a kind Savior!” Those names ho gnve. togqther with-the residence of each, apd A : found • the- Californians, every where, ready to ; old- man’s desr iriomr. . .

I v fiellgftm in Japan,- It would appear from the number and-varie ty of religious sects in Jopau, that the Gov ernment'does not actively interfere 1 with lib erty of conscience, nor sustain any system, which’properly can bo termed a- State or or ganized ecolesiastioism. It is true that there is nominally.a distinct ecclesiastical power, and that the Mikado, or spiritual Emperor, is believed to be inspired and of heavenly decent.

It is said that the Divine laws are not construed so ns to effect the future life ; and there is no doubt that the disbelief of tho Japanese in the doctrine of eternal punishment, as taught by tho Jesuits, did much to suppress the growth of Christi anity in tho Empire. The Sin-Syu system is adopted in its purity by only’u small portion of the nation, the great majority combining it with the doctrine of Buddha, tho prevailing religion of the East, and which embraces iu its'system over three hundred millions of souls.

Household Words thus reports some of the coses adjudicated before these courts: i Once this problem was propounded: •Do the greatest affection and liveliest attachment exist between lovers or married persons ? The Lady Emengrade thus determined the matter: The attachment of themarried and :he tender affection of the lovers are: altogether different' sentiments.

He appeared before the same Countess of Champagne, when she was sitting in A fhll court of sixty ladles, and said that he had been tenderly attached to a lady whom distance and his other, duties prevented him from meet ing tts often as he liked. They had, however, established d m'diins of Communicating by means of his secretary, and for a time all went happily. " Blit at length the faithless secretary showed his perfidy. He made offers of devo tion to his master’s mistress, and succeeded in drawing off her affections, thus, violating • the most sttcrCd IttWs of love and honor; The court, after a "mature deliberation, uttered this decision; That .the dishonorable secretary had found his mate in the.lady who could en courage his advances, and" the knight might be glad to leave them base alliance could affotd; but it was -decreed that they, having, broken the rule of chivalry, should bo forever precluded from, chivalrous society; they must never seek the .esteem of knights or ladies, and never show themselves in ony ooUrt of loVei IncoHtr&st to tliis- ilbtioh for trench of promise, take the' instance of a more humor ous trial. It is .the great case of The 'Kiss, in which a lildy demanded damages for the felo nious taking of that article. The defendant pleaded that he had long.beon deeply attached to the plaintiff, and that threii nionths pre viously she had promised to bestow on him a kiss ;.yet ns often as,he had claimed the ful fillment of her pledge, she put, him off with some excuse or other; itt tiisti hti said, ho, could Wait nd longer- find, when ho'r husband wasqut of the way, lie ' took - her and it by ,sto«».j^l}e.nla}^ ™c promise, she had limited herself to nq pe riod, and that, if left' to, ' herself, sho would have - fulfilled - itnii' pfopdr time. ; Biit the court (which 1 find generally favored the dis tressed cavaliers); overruled this excuse as trivial, gave judgement against the plaintiff, ] condemned her to pay all costs; and, in addi- | tioii, to furnish a supplementary kiss.
