'She Places of Dui Ancient Quarries.-
The Subrbs of the CityTDoesw n tinder

' [From tho Tr4,Ttnies.)
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 morrow-maiden and the merrow-man
correspond to the English superstition of the
mermaid. On the south coast of Ireland , the
mermaid to the present hour is fully believed
in, and the writer of this article has frequently
while sea fishing listened to detailed narratives
of her appearance. 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.

Pyrophotography.
[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 !"

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

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

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

' 000,000 'men, and ,1,600 cannon. 'Blindness
alone can permit a doubt - that war will break

and moral_presumption,...we might believe we
could choose the daY.and hour when our or

an effort to stop the fatal course leading direct
to the precipice. 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.
The Archbishop of, Paris addressed the Rol

These w o rds, the most sublime in the French
language, were never uttered by me with a

,What we have to do iu this terrible crisis,
Monyicar is Cure, is to give the assistance and
consolation of our ministry to our vtliliant
soldiers, in the forts and orb the:ramparts; to
alleviate the sufferings of the wounded, and to
help and protect their fifoilietk; and , especially
their children. Our - duty is to encourage the
people.and to sustain them in their noble resist

short, to pray to God; the supreme arbiter of
our deStinies.

in large numbers, to assist :our soldiers; each
of the twenty-one fortresses which surround
the capital has a chaplain; ambulances estab
lished at points which may he.attacked will be
in charge of a clergyman from the nearest
parish.
I have offered, fOr the purpose of being con

the diocese,where every ,corporeal and spiritual
comfort will lie administered to the wounded.
