The extraordinary solaterianeous quarries known-by the name of the Caisicembs,' extend undei a very,great part of the city - of Paris. For the first building, of Paris,, the stone was yaised in the environs; and as- the icitTwas en *gee, the.suburbftWere -L btffit - imperceptibly over the ancient qtarries, so that ail .that-is seen beyond the ancient limits is essentially wantiog, iii 'foundation. The Faubourg St. Jaques, the Rue do la Marne, nnd the Rue Tournon, stand' nimediately over the ancient quarries, and pillars 'have been erected in very many. places -to support the weight of the houseS. The principal entrance is near the Barriefe St. Jaques, _where there ' is a descent by steps to the depth of :100 feet per pendicular. At the entrance the path is nar 4 row for a considerable wag ; bpt. the visitor afterward enters large -and spacious streets, all marked with names, as in the city above, . ad advertigeMents and bills are not unfreque itly to be seen pasted on the walls, so that the place has in some measure the'appearancei r of a (large town swallowed up in the earth. The general height of the roof is about nine. feet; but in .soine parts no less than thirty, and Even forty. Under the houses and many of the streets the roof seems to be tolerably se cured by immense stones set in mortar; in other-parts, where there are only-fields or gar denaabove, it *totally , unsupported foEconsis doable distances, the roof being level,or a plain piece Of rock. 'After 'the visitor had walked .abeut.two miles it used to be theVtistom to show him into a kind-of saloon cut ant of the rock, and said to be exactly, ender the Church of. St: Jaques, which was. occasionally illumi nated, and eontainedrepresentaticitis'in minia ture offortifications, with cannon ready to fire, • ciEc. The journey through the Catacombs is a very tedious one; and the damp and cold air is .often attended with unwholesome effects. The temperature_ is, for the most, part, colder than on the surface.of the earth, except in -bard ' frosts, when it is said to be otherwise. In some 'of the passages and caverns where- the rock is low, and - in the -- descent; an' oppression of - breathingii felt. For many years there have . not been more than two entrances in the quar ries' viz.: at the Barriere St. Jaques and at the Val de Grace, it having been deemed necessary 4 to secure all th`sientrances,from its haying been formerly inhabited by a gang 'of robbers *ho infested Paris. ' , The Catacombs contain all the visible re mains of human creatures, that had filled the burial-places within the walls of Paris for nearly 3,000 years. They were brought from the cemeteries, particularly 'that. .of " Les Inno cens," in 1788, and it wag, the plan of M. Lenoir, Lieutenant-General of the police, that the bones should be placed in regular rows, ' with, appropriate inscriptions, serving as lessons to the -living. The skulls, of - which there are -above 2,000,000, are -pllced in conjunction with the bones of the leg f and arms; in a man ner which has a very striking appearance. Many Ott, hese belong to the victims of revolu:. tions; the dead ,of the 10th of August, and those of the 2d and :id of September, 1'702, are deposited there in separate divisions. The dif ferent parts of the Catacombs -are mined, with strange incongruity, after the purport of the inscription which was plaCed there, or from the name of the anther of the inscrip tion. -Virgil, -Ovid., and Anacreon have each their crypts, as well as the prophets Jere - and Ezekiel ; and Hervey, the author of the " MeditationS," takes his place with Horace, - ' Malherbes, and Jean Baptiste RoSseau. Among the ornaments is a fountain, in which . four golden fish were, or are still, imprisoned. The Catacombs were much, improved in 1510, ._under the care of M. - de Thury, who stopped ,:e- the access of the water which filtered - through tbe roof—made gallertes through the bones, which iu some places were above ninety feet thick—provided a circulation of air, by means -of the necks of bottles —carried off the water in channels constructed steps from the lower to the upper excavation—built pillars to sup port the dangerous parts of the roof—and, in short, ti's the great renovator if the place, which is subsequently had comparatively S i little att ition bestowed upon it. Amon„ the many inscriptions, taken either from scripture or from poets, there is a remark able one over the spring, which was originally discovered by the n orknien, for whose use the basin was made, and whose waters are carried oft by a subterranean acq.teduct. M. de Thury named it e'; first the " Spring of Ob . livion," and inscribed over it the lines of Vir gil. But this inscription has'- been since changed for one of the most apposite texts that could have been found in the Bible : "Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again ; but whosotiyr drinketh of the water that 1 shall give hitt shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlast ing life." _ - There *scarcely any exception to the fact, that - there is among all nations, even the most • savage, a strong and tender • feeling for the re mains of their dead ; and it is remarkable that so universal is the sentiment, that although for the inhabitants of maritime cities and of the sea-coast the most obvious and easiest mode of disposing oferhe dead would he by committing them to the deep, yet no such method seems to have prevailed, because it would have the appearance of casting them away, rather than of depositing them in peace. In visiding such repositories of the mortal remains of our species as the Catacombs, it is impossible not to be struck with the reverential feeling which has establisheffso extensive a sepulture, and has preserved it inviolate and hallowed amidst all political commetions, notwithstanding that spirit of insult and contumely for sacred things which will be the everlasting reproach of the - first Pro wl) revolution, an of the eventful gears that followll it. The. epitaphs and in scriptions to be seen in the cemeteries 'of 'France frequently show a disposition to treat death with levity ; but there is no -reason to '- charge the French with a want of respect or affectiomfor tee mortal remains of their great . . men, their fm-lends or their kindred. . In mashie . b along the walls and battlements of skulls itithe Catacombs of Paris, there is . yeti another and a more important reflection, which can hardly.faiLto come home to the visi tors of the cit. of the dead. The grim visages f of mortality nnot but s uggest to us- what a - momentary s oace is the life of man, between the eternity of the past and of the future. What is now the abode of the spirits that once ' animated theselskulls and skeletons, or what is to be our own destination after death, we may guess as long as we please, and. guess in vain, for this knowledge is - hidden from man. Philosophers have been specularik; for thou sands of years, whether or not ntii. souls sur vive our bodies, and the result is that philoso phy can give us no certain-information . on the subject. It is religion that holds but the strongest hopes . that the grave is not our last home... The Terrors of Men Who “ gave n • Scheme." - -.-- The financier -Law was a man who had a Irish Folk Lore.

The morrow-maiden and the merrow-man correspond to the English superstition of the mermaid.

The merrow is seldom visible without a misfortune impending or en suing, nand if shills heard' to sing the circum stance Is considered to be a'werning of speedy death by shipwreck. A popular superstition also connected with - the coast is that of the wa ter witch. The water witch is an old woman who dwells on a lonely peninsula, and at mid night goes upon the', deep in a large cockle shell, raisin , * b storms with her crutch. When she chooses to stay indoors she makes a hell broth of the most abominable chartist ingredi ents, and into this she throws eggs labelled with the names of certain ships whose owners or crews have Nre7.3d her. The fate that befalls the eggs in being smashed and broken in this diabolical pot age is entailed at the same moment upon themiserable ships. rAnis. Eothen's Yorkshire groom riding belted and booted in strict costume across the desert, was always inciiiiring with delicious vaivete when they should come to some gentleman's seat. There was no poetry to that man in the desert. The great ocean of sand, where the Genii, transformed to moving pillars of sand, are tor mented by the simoom, wasito7the groom only ,a sort of bad huntino - b country with a great want of fences. Still, he would like to try a .greyhound there atter a hare. The East has wonders. The Pyramids are stupendous as the work of Titans, tremendous as bastions of a, demolished Babel. Baalbec is sublime in its inajealc loneliness; but the desert has a 'gran deur only 'pecond..tothat.oLlhe_oceart, c.!_.There is room to live in the desert—ygso.and room to die. Let the fire-wind chine, or water' run short, and your bones will„ be added to the trail of those that mark the passage of death's caravan among the thorny shrubs and the scattered drift of shining pebbles. Room here for i unambitious emigrants with small cap ital ; room for building societies, room for re views the night before Armageddon; room, above all, for the iniagination of a poor Euro pean long crushed in between the black walls of .cities. The delighted spirit, long pent up like the Afrit in the leaden casket,ellikes to itself wings and rejoices as a strong man to run a race. The one great being that rules the de sert, and is there omnipresent, is the sun. As Mr. Kinglake says, in his line way, "from pole to pole, and from the east to the west, he brandishes his fiery sceptre, as though he had usurped all heaven and earth. 'As he bid the soft Persian iu ancient times, so now, and fiercely too, he.bids you bow dewn andwor ship him; so now in his pride he seems to com mand you, and says, 'Thou .shalt have none other God but me. " _ All dry the sun pour on you its liquid fire, and thei eis no rock nor tree - to lend you its Weleonie - Shade. This monotony of heat ajul this monotony of sand arouses the fancy; and the first /crab you see approach you are inclined to think must needs .be the_ Princess Badoura, seeking in disguise the truant CarmaralzainanT or that merchant who, taking his meal under a palm tree, flung away heedlessly the date-stone that blinded the Genii's son. Every foot-print in the sand becomes to yotlipw as important as the foot-print seen by Ceritoe - on the sea shore. You start \Lilt bag,s of dried bread, some• wine, tea and sitgai' m„goat skins full of \vater, and a sack of charcoal ; for - there is no food or fuel td - be got iu the desert, unless you murder a rival traveler. The - ea:diets receio protestingly their loads ; the lean, gaunt Arabs stride ahead; you mount your camel, and he swings forward in his disjointed, disagreeable way. The domes of the mosques recede; you are in the Desert. No green valleys and hills—" sand, sand. still sand; and only sand and sand, and sand again." Presently the sun rises in his majesty; you dare not look up. "Your Arabs moan, your camels sigh, your skin glows, your shoulders ache, and for sights you see the pattern, the web of the silk that veils your eyes and the glare of the outer light." Your only prayer is for night,coolness, and half a pint of beer. No wonder that the Bedouin thinks that the English travelers are men driven about the world by evil spirits for some sin committed against Allah. Of all the events that diversify a day's pil grimage in the Desert, the most interesting is ~that of meeting some other traveler. if he is an Arab, you instantly fancy he must be that merchant mentioned in Arabian story, who traded to the Ebony Islands, and thence to the Island of Khaledan, whose king is the Sultan, Shazathan. Say it is morning, and the great boundless plains of sand are blue as tile ocean in the mirage that the air spreads over them. A moving speck grows and widens out of the horizon. It proves to be a Bedouin with his wife and slave. They have risen hours before the sun and will rest all the midday under their black tent. Ile rides behind to better steer his little caravan. He is studying now the flight of the vultures that follow the desert paths, and drawing auguries from the course they take. Later in the day, when the glare above will be too great for even an Arab's eye to brave, he will mark every foot print of man, horse,. or camel on the desert sand below as keenly as if he was an Indian on the war trail: Those,hierogly- Odes have a meaning to him. Mean While, high up in her plumed and curtained howdah (tachterawan the Arabs and Turks call it), looking down as from the battlements of a tower, leans his " Rose in Bloom," his'" Moon Eyes," or whatever Arabian Nights' name she bears. A black slaye bearing the water bottle leads her stately camel, proud of its burden. Boor after hour that patient beast will plod on, patient and untiring, until the black tents of the friendly tribe come in sight, and the green palm-trees of the oasis rise above the horizon, or, better still, the long dark line of the: Egyp tian frontier grows into rank rice-fields and broad tracks of_ golden millet, spreading to the very base of the Pyramids. The desert is past then, the pilgrimage is over. With one touch on the. chest, the camels sink down upon their knees to be unloaded. With thanks -to Allah, the Arab and his wife look around on the rich green growth of the fertile land, on the groat mosques that rise above the flat roofs of Cairo, and on the great river that flows with such a majestic course from the Mountains of the Moou.—Every Saturday.

[From the TeebnologiAt.l The art which by means of the rays of light produces changes on properly prepared sur faces, is attaining an unforeseen significance. 'Developed to a high perfection in the photo graphic ateliers, these Workshops . haVe now he: come too small for it. It •has already been transplanted into various branches of art in dustry; and has fed to improvements by which numerous art objects, which formerly could only be multiplied with diffienityi have become the property of the masses. A new and im portant progress has been achieved, namely, the application of the enamel photography to all specialties of glass painting, or the so-called pyrophotography. We are now able to produce an exact and enduring copy of any picture on a sheet of ,glass—a transparent photographic glass picture. The, process is as follows : A mixture of honey, glycerine, and gum-like sub stances, in certain . proportions, dissolved in water.-and 'youred 7 m-a--thin-•layer•-*ert.::the, glass upon which tIA picture IS tO be produeed, This layer becomes hard When • dried at a temperate heat,but remains nevertheless hygro scopic. When, however, a hi-chromate is added to if, the prdpertY of this mixture is modified in such a manlier, that exactly irethe ratio in which it ,is exposed to the light, it loses its property of becoming gummy, and instead of , this assumes a horn-like appearance. But all the shaded parts again grow gummy, • exactly in the degree to which the shadow preventi the light from acting. It is evident that in order to produce a copy en the glass, it is only necessary to cover with a glass diapositive or an engraving on paper made transparent with. oil, the transpaient layer modified- by-a- chromate, and to expose tjle sensitive plate for from live to fifty minutes - to the action of the sun. If such a plate has been subjected to the sun, not a trace of a picture can be perceived, but as soon as a black or brown firm, which must be of a floin-like fineness, is dusted over .the :sur face,- a true copy of the original will make its appearance, and will stand out with great purity aniLvigor... is then-only necessary to wash out the finished picture in water, :Incite expose the plate - to a white heat in 'a - glass furriace hi:order to' obtain an image shat can only be destroyed With_the, _glass itself.,. It j is certainly interesting to knew that we. are enabled to in a direct man tier to a glass Surface, the . most. accurate cop: of an original—a copy on which the illumin ated parts are not black and . the - dark onea whit,e, as is the:ease - with the silver bath, butr--a• copy that exhibits light and shade in the same manncr - d - S - the original, and which therefore may itself be employed - - again' as a so-called diapositive for the,production of • new copies. In-conclusion, pyrophoto, grapliy is at present practically carried out in some of the glass-painting establishments in I;ermany. We hope soon -to give a__ Jpor e minute =mull, of the process. Tit E REPUBLI CA NS. • An Aggress _to-France. The - fon - Wing :translation of an a(lill&s from the Republican committee of Santander to their brother politicians is of interest, as show ing the view that the. Republicans in Spain, and therefore a considerable portion of the nation, take of the present state of affairs iu France : 1') the Peptiblicans of SitrttaiphY : The French people has awakened. Inspired by ' sentiments of patriotism and by the lessons of history, it has sought its salvation where alone people can find themselves. Napoleoe, who has caused the destruction of what was once his army by forcing it to fight for one man, has fallen under th irresistible weight of an idea. The Republic has killed the Empire, and now it is the French people which is light ing against the hoSts of the King of Prussia. The hour has therefore come when we should show our sympathies for the new situation created in France ; and as for doing so we are about to use legal means, this Committee has determined upon holding a peaceful Manifesta tion with the said obAct, in order to convince tyrannical governments that our faith does not decrease, that our enthusiasm does not cool. It would have been unnecessary to hold this manifestation, for on the night of that Mon day, on knowing the proclamation of ,the French Republic, the delight you evinced was a proof of the noble and elevated sentiments which animate you, and, interpreting your de sires, the Committee hastened to congratulate by telegraph the Provisional Government of the great nation whiCh has displayed iu every part of Europe the triumphant flag of the Re public, and which now; notwithstanding that it finds itself without resources and without an army, oppressed and ensanguitied by the tyranny of the Bonapartes, will know how to defend itself, and drive , beyond the Rhine the triumphant arms of the servile William. Re-: publicans of Santander 1 let us have faith in our -principles, for they will save our country as they must save France.. Let us be pendent, for the triumph is ours. Each hour that passes renders the establishment of a monarchy more, impossible; and the Federal Republic; the govermnent of the people by the people, will lie the solution which, the mo narchists have not ilieen- able- to tind for the Revolution of Srpteniber, great in its origin, prostituted by its apostates and by those who furthered it for their own ends. Republicans of Santander, " Long live the French Re public!" ' , Long live Republican Franco!" Long live the Federal Republic !" SANTANDEE, Sept. 11, 1870.

Last Iligles despatches contain the following: The New York 11 - oria'.., correspondent at Boulogne sends word that a foreign regiment had been formed for the service of the French at Cherbourg, to be called " Volunteers of Fontenoy," and to be composed. exclusively of Irish volunteers,:' The "Then for the regiment are daily leaving Ireland and England. The Sla whir(' will, to-nibrrow, contain an anthori . 4ed statement from the Emperor Na poleon denying the authenticity of the lei ter.eirculated _ under_ Ocrmari,nuspices in his name Advices just received from Berlin _ the citizfrms in latge numbers have petitioned the King not to expose hiruSelf to .perSOnar danger at the siege.of Paris. , Ilis'Majesty has repli - ed MO. be has Wien his decision, which is that he %ill not return to Betliu until the war is terminated. _ . , The MadrideorrespPudent of the New York •Tinies 'telegraphs that the resignation of Olozaga, Spanish Ambassador to Paris, is likely to lead to serious rt:lsults. It identities him with the Republican party, and adds great strength to the movement in favor of F.cance. , I ant authorized to state from the highest source that the alleged now of the Emperor, which apitearell in Le Sihtatit,n; is not authentic. lam also reqUested to state by the same authority that the Empress has no con— nection, direct or indir it, with the journal in question, and that nr newspaper in England is supported or cont led by the Imperial family. 4 ( I am authorized to add that the telegram pub lished as found among papers in the Tuileries ___ is incorrect. The Empress never telegraphed to the Emperor to return to Paris. Despatches from Tours to Monday last say the papers publish liberal extracts of private correspondence of Napoleon. One of the documents in the handwriting of the Emperor, naming a regency in case of his death, entrusts the Emperor during his minority (the Prince Imperial) to the care of General Frossard. Paris is surrounded by trenches, rifle-pits, barricades and other temporary defences. The villas in the suburbs and the walls of cot tages are loop-holed for rifles. The Foreign Legion has left Tours, but its destination is unknown. , It is noticeable that as the election for the Constituent Assembly approaches old parties seem to be reviving. Their different organs are apparently thinking mere of pplitics than of the danger of the unitary. A despatch just received at Tours from Char tres, dated to-day, contains the following intel ligence: "The Prussians gained souae advan tage near Epernon, yesterday, which opens that place to their arms. They bombarded Eper non for a time. The Mobiles and franc-tireurs • fought couragedusly, but were unable to con tend against the vigorous artillery fire of the enemy." , The French army now in Algeria, munher ing 3'7,000 men, demands to be recalled to re • sist the Prussians. 'l' A detachment of Prussians, several hundred strong, made an attack on the francAireurs near Fontainebleau ou Tuesday, and, were handsomely repulsed. The Prussians retreated towards Chailly. Herr Delbruck will soon pay a visit to the King's headquarters, taking with . him a plan • for the - reconstruction of Germany. The Berlin correspondent of the New York Iterate! telegraphs that he has just received a written reply from Pietri, private secretary: W apoleon, who says that no manifesto will 'e published by the. Emperor. All rumors to that elle& are groundless. - • General Bayer has been dismissed from the army of the Loire for insubordination and disobedience of orders issued by the Ministry._ The difficulties at Lyons between the Clu seret faction and , the governmental authorities still continue, and the insurgents have declared their determination to resist the orders and 'au thority of the representatives of the Republic, and defiantly announce themselves as a sepa rate Reptiblic. Despatches from the Prussian army before Paris announce that King William's headquar ters are removed from Ferreires to Versailles. The ~Prussian forces occupied • Epernon, a small village fourteen miles northeast of Chartres. . Information from Metz states that the French Ger,teral De Caen is dead., lie was mortally • wmtinded during the Ittio;;i101Ve from that fOr tress. A letter from Persigny to e tlieEmperor, bear ing no date, and postmarked, Strasbourg, De cember 7, IS6O, says: "As you are about to communicate several broad truths to the illus trious personages , surrounding 34110Utt can add'the following; "Whilst we are pompously and tediously de liberating as to what should be done to obtain an army, •,Prussia proposes simply, and with great activity, to -invade our territory. - - "She wid be in a poSition to place in line 600,000 men and 1,200 cannon 'before we have thought. of organizing a frame work, which is thidispensable,lefore,Ne can • - ,place in—the-field ' 000,000 'men, and ,1,600 cannon.

I draw., your attention to the. following,_because it is of a nature to open the eyes of the least clear sighted: " For some time past Prussian agents have • beere'running over; the .kontier. •depaitrnints, particularly the portions Coinpiised between the Moselle and Vosges to sound the opinions of lke,population and bring influence .to bear upon the Protestants, who are ,numerous in those parts; and much less Fi.,ench than is the believed. They,are the.gra,ndsons of the men of 1815, and have - sent deputations to the headquarters.of the enemy to ask that Alsace be ' taken over by. Germany.• "It is well to note these facts, for they may _reasonabiy_ be considered as throwing light upon the enemy's plans. The •Prusslaus :adopted the same course three months before, the open ing of the Austrian war in Bohemia and Silesia." The Fr'ench Clergy.
