fC IRtHtatTMf AT R.
" mtTLtsa rmcLotiat.
IsiteJ lately tha works going on in the
mncma Vault of ib Holy Office, and
not little horrified at what I uw with
own eye, and held in my own hand,
fhongh I have been familiar with every
ing m and about Home for a quarter of a
mtnry, I confess t never had any ciiKoiity
f visit the Inqoisilion, taking it for granted
hat every thing waa carried on there fairly
and hoBeetly, a I was led to believe by peo
worthy in other respects of implicit trust.
; Besides, the place itself is out of the beaten
track of all strangers, and in a sort of rut V
sat behind St. Peter's, where it naturally re
tired to perform its blushing operation, and
do good by stealth.7' I was struck with the
outward appearance of civilization and com
fort displayed by the building, which owes
its erection to Pius V, author of the last creed;
but, en entering, the real character of the
concern was no longer dissimulated.
A range of strongly barred prisons formed
the ground-floor of a quadrangular court, and
these dark and damp receptacles I found
, were only the preliminary stage of proba
tion, intended for new-comers as yet uniniti
ated into the Eleosinian mysteries of the es
tablishment. Entering a passage to the leftj
yon arrive at a smaller court-yard, where a
triple row of small barred dungeons rises
from the soil upwards, somewhat after the
outward look of a three-decker, ' -accommodating"
about sixty prisoners. These barred
cages must have been often fully manned,
for there is a supplementary row constructed
at the back of the quadrangle, on the ground
floor which faces a large garden. All these
cellular connivances have stiong iron rings
let into the masonry, and in some there is a
large stone firmly imbedded iu the centre
with a similar massive ring. Numerous in
scriptions, dated centuries back, are dimly
legible on the admission of light, the peneral
tenor being assertion of innocence : '-ddio ti
libtri H tingva talvmniarice,,' "to Dumenko
Gazxoli vissi jut anni IS,' '-Calumnialarts
wiendacts ezttrmmchnntur.'' I read another
somewhat longer, the drift of which is, '-The
caprice or wickedness of man can't exclude
me from thy Church, O Christ, my only
hope."
The officer in charge led me down to
where the men were digging in the vaults
below; they had cleared a downward flight
of steps, which was choked up with old rub
bish, and had come to a series of dungeons
under the vaults deeper ntiil, and which im
mediately brought to my mind the prisons of
the Doge under the canal of the Bridge of
Sights at Venice, only that here there was a
surpassing honor. I saw imbedded in old
masonry, onsymniclrically arranged, five
skeletons in various recesses, and the clear
ance had only just bcjtin : the period of their
insertion in this spot must have been more
than a century and a half. From another
vault, full of skulls and scattered human re
mains, there was a shaft about four feet
square ascending perpendicularly to the floor
of the building, and ending in a passage off
the hall ol the chancery, where a trap-door
lay between the tribunal and the way into a
suite of rooms destined for one of the officials.
The object of this shaft could admit of but
one surmise. The ground of the vault was
made up of decayed animal matter, a lump
of which, held imbedded in it a loi:g silken
lock of hair, as I found by personal examina
tion, as it was shovelled up from below.-
Why or wherefore, with a large space of va
cant ground lying outside the structure, this
charnel-house should be contrived under the
dwelling, passes my ken.
But that is not all ; there are two large sub
terranean lime-kilns, if I may so call them,
shaped like a bee-hive in masonry, filled
with layers of calcined bones, forming the
substratum of two other chambers on the
ground floor in the immediate vicinity of the
very mysterious shaft above mentioned
know not what interest yon may attach to
what looks like a chapter from ' Mrs. Rad-
clirTe. but had I not the evidence of my own
senses, 1 would never have dreamt of such
appearances in a prison of the Holy Office ;
being thoroughly sick of the nonsense that
has for years been put forth on that topic by
partisan peas. But here the thing will be
come serious, for to-morrow the whole pop
ulation of Rome is publicly invited by the
authorities to come and see with their own
eyes, one of the results of entrusting power
to clerical hands Libels on the clergy have
been maiiitoLl during the last four months,
and have done their woik among the masses.
But mere talk is nothing to the actual view
jf realities.

Explosion or Steam Boilem. Mr. Burke,
late Commissioner of Patentf, in his interest
ing report on this subject, attributes the burst
ing of steam boilers mainly to the use of cast
ircti boiler-heads, and the absence of such
guards us inventive genius has furnished,,-
It is more than twenty years since the Go
vernment of France passed a law prohibiting
the U3a of ui!.t iron boiler heads, after some
destructive explosions from this cause; yet
our Government has neglected to follow its
example. From the report it appears that,
within the pa'at twenty years, there have
been killed by explosions in this country 926
persons aiul 298 wounded, many of them
made cripples for life, while near a million
dollars in property has been destroyed
The appropriations made at the recent
session of Congress, according to the official
Matement published in the National Intelli
gencer, are as follows :
