Dunni; and 8tnee tho ureal Kevolu-
I ion, the palace of tho Tuilerica wa
nuMocialed with many memorable
nceneB. Tub mob entered it on the
20th of Juno, 178:!, and it wan attack
ed and tho Swine Guards uiiiiwucred in
the August following. It wus the of
hiMul rcHtdence ot JNtipoloon when
Kirnl Consul, and when ho became
Kinperor it formed one of tho impe
rial ptiliicen. In 1808, Napoleon ba-
gnn the Northern pallery to servo na
it comntiiiiictitioii with tho Lonvro.
After the RoMorution, the Louvre
continued to be the chiof rosidenco
of the King ond Iloynl family. After
the Revolution of 1K80, when the poo
plo attttt'ked and took tho palace,
(Juno 20th,) Louis Philippe fixed his
residence in it, nnd continued to in
habit it until tho 24th of February,
1848, w hen it was again invaded by
the people, nnd tho King made hi
I'scnno. Hy a decree ol tno rrovi-
Hinnul Government of 1818, it wus to
bo transferred into nn aylum for in
valid workmen, but that intention was
not carried out.' During nnd after tho
formidable insurrection of Juno of the
amo your. It was usod as a hospitul
fur the wounded. In !M!. tho yearly
exhibition of painting wns 0iened in
the Tiiileries. During tho reign of
Napoleon III. it was his official resi
dence, and was tho sccno of magnifi
cent balls nnd reception. A concert
was recently hold in the 'Hall of tho
Marshals, under tho auspices of tho
Communo.
Tho exterior of tho palaeo was grand
and imposing. Tho extreme length of
tho luscndo was ii.lt) yards; its hreuillh
3t yards.. Owing to the difToronl
pen oils at which it was built, its ar
chitecture wus not uniform. All that
wealth ntitl tnsto could accomplish
wus employed under successive nion
arvhs to einbclinh its intorior. Tho
hmperors private apartments- vera
gorgeously decorsled. 'J'ho theatre
could uccomoduto 800 anoclators, and
was used as a supper room whon balls
wcro given at Court. Tho chapel of
tho pulai H was rather plain, nnd had
a gallery and ceiling resting upon
Doric columns! of stouo and sfucco.
The Hullo do la l'aix wus used us a
ball room, and was 140 feet long by
30 feet broad, and enntuined splendid
staluiiry. Tho Hull of the Marshals
was retnnrknhlo for its splendor. Tho
mimes of the great battles fought tin
der the First lCmpiro were Inscribed
on its walls, and uround the ball wtru
busts of distinguished generals and
naval commanders, while portraits ol
the great Marshals of Franco ndornod
its panels. Tho furniture was orna
mented with green velvet and gold.
This wus used as a ball. room on Stale
occasions. Four other mitgnillceiit
hulls wore conspicuous fentnres. The
carpels on them worn of Irobolin's
miiniifacliir., and cost (200,000.
These hulls were tho While, the Apol
lo, and tho Throne Halls. Tho Throne
Hull, a splendid uptii'lnient, contained
the imperial throne. The hangings

facture, with pitlni leaves and wreaths
wrought in gold. Tho throne, fining
tho windows, was surmounted by u
canopy of the atttnt, and the drapery
depending from it was studded with

(,'" tltn PALACE or-THS LOUVRI. ' 1 '
Tho curly htsiory of 'th,' Louvre is
obscure; but from the great tower
which Tliilip Augustus built in 1214,
as an urt-cuul and atute prison, this
huge.piln gradually grew.- Charles
v. lit leu up the Louvro ol his period
as a royal rosidunco, adorning it with
gardens and terrncos. In tho reigns
of tho Sixth, Sovonth and Eiihth
Charleses, ' and tho Eleventh and
Twelfth Louises, it was Converted in
to a fortress. Francis 1. Invited his
great rival, Charles V., to accept bis
hospitalities.. Il was in this mon
arch's reign that the tietunl Louvre
had its beginning. ' Pierre LcsootiOiff1!
ot me gi-cuiusi arcnitccts or tno ro
nnissunco, assisted by the sculptors,
Jcun Goujon and Paul 1'oncino, was
intrusted with tho work. Horlio, nn
architect, of Bologna, built one of the
galleries and covered it will) a ler-
raco under tho auspicos of Henry IV
This monarch couoefvod the idoa of
joining the houso with tho Tuilerics,
u projact which was adopted hy Louts
Aiv., inspiretl Dy t.'oloerl, who doubt
loss wished to ossocialo his ministry
with such a work in imitation of the
builder of tho Palais Cardinal. Aflor
tho death of Louis XIY. littlo was
done until the middle of the lust cen
tury, whon tho architect Gubriul was
employed to finUh tho llireo facades
coimnoncod by Colbert's arehtiect,
Claude Perruult, and tho vestihtilo of
Ruo Marengo wus completed by Souf-
flot. Aftor the cumpuign of Iluly, the
art tt'cusiiros brought buck to Pans
required suit.ihlo galleries. It wus do
terminod to prepare tho Louvre for
thctn. Tho great Muircaso of the
Museums of Ancient Art, th. stair
cases on llio twoexlremo ends of tho
colonnade, tho Egyptian Museum, the
chambers for the Council of State, and
other portions of tho Louvre worn
built. M. Thiers, when Prime Minister
of Louis Philippo, proposed to spend
18,000 francs on thecomplolion of the
palaco, but the suggestion was not ac
cepted. After the revolution of 184S,
2,000,000 francs wcro appropriated to
tho restoration of tho Apollo Gallery
and tho general repair of tho building:.
Tho decoration of tho intorior was in
trusted to Delacroix. Tho now Louvre,
begun in accordance with the plan of
tho provisional government in 1852,
was completed in 1857, nt a cost of
Hfl.OOO.OlM). It was built by Visconti
nnd Leftiol, TIloTulterlcM and Louvro
form on J palace now ami .oovor sixty
acres. The Louvre is situated on the
right bank of llio Seino and consists of
the old and new Louvre. Tho old
Louvre forms a square 670 feci long
and 438 wide, enclosing a quadrangle
of 400 feel square. The fame of its
Corinthian eolotinado on tho eastern
fiiciido. looking towards tho Church of
St. Germain I'Auxerroit, is world wido
The now Louvre consists of two lateral
piles of buildings projecting at right
angles from tho two parallel galleries
which joinod tho old Louvre with the
Tuilerics. Between the Kite deliivoli
and the Square Napoleon III. they
Iihvc n front of 300 foot, intersected by
three pavilions, to be ocenpiod by the
Department of Stato and of tho Into
rior, by tho Administration ol the Te
legraph, tho imporiul library and a
permanent exhibition of fine arts.
Thore is also in the Louvre the council
chamber to bo used as an assembly
room for tho public bodies of tho na
tion on tho opening of tho Legislature
and on such occasions. It communi

During tho long duel of tho feudal
ages between the monarchy und the
nobility, the Communo, tho "Hanse,"
as il was originally culled, of Puris,
(its origin, liko that of the " Hanse
towns" of Germany, referring to a
community of merchants which as
sumed fiscal rights over the navigation
of tho Seine,) made itself tho ally of
tho King. 1 ho meetings ol Hits hotly
were held first in a house nn tho quay,
now culled Megisserio. Thenco they
were transferred to a building on the
pluco now known as tho Place du Chit
telet, and this building was called the
" Parlor Aux Bourgeois," or talking
place of tho burgesses. Philip Angus
tns next gave the merchants n rci'ugo
in ono of the towors of the fortifica
tions which he roareil around Paris.
It was in 1857, five conturies ago, that
the muniuipojily was lodged where it
hits ovor siuco remained. In that year
tho famous " Provost of tho Mer
chants," Stephen Marcel, bought a
houso on tho Pluco of tho Public Exe
cutions, Lu Grove-, citllud the " House
of Pillars." Neurly two centuries
later, whon the Italian genius domin
ated Franco in art and politics, the
" House of tho Pillars." wus pulled
down and a now edifice was begun
under tho supervision of Siguor Do
minico Bocurno do Corlona. Under
tho Terror this edifice was cxtomled
by tho annexation to it of tho confis
cuted church of St John cn-Grevo
and Hospital of tho Holy Ghost. .
The first Napoleon, uinong Ins many
grand projects, contemplated sweeping
away nil but tho building of the six
teenth century, nnd developing the
Hotel do Villa into ono of the most
stalely and splendid palaces of Ku-

project short, with many others, and
it was only under Louis Philippo (who

llio death of somo purl of the physical

On tho other bund, sleep is not liko
death ; lor il is the period in which
tho tvaslo of the system ceases, or is
reduced lo its minimum. Sloop re
pairs tho war-tea which waking hours
have made. It rebuilds the system.
Tho night Is tho repulr-Miop of tbo

silently overhauled and ull the organs,

Wuking consumes, sleep replaces ;
waking exhausts, sleep repairs, wak
ing is death, aleup is lito.
Tho man who sleeps Utile, repair
littlo ; if ho sloeps poorly, ho repairs
poorly. If bo tisen up in a day less
than iio accumulates ut night ho will
gain In houlth und vigor. If he uses
up ull that he gains at night bo will
just hold his own. If bo uses moro by
duy than he gathers fit night ho will
lose. And it this hist process bo long
continued, he must succumb. A man
who would bo a good worker must sea

A man has us much loreo in him as
