Contentment spread her holy calm Around a resting-place so bright, And gloomy sorrow finds a Wm lir gazing nt so fair a sight ; The world's cold selfishness departs, And discord rears its front no more, There pity's pearly tear drop start, And charity attends the door. No bitter scandal, fresh from hell, ()rates on the ear, or sealds the tongue; There kind iemembrance loves to dwell. And virtue's laced is sweetly sung; And human nature soars on high, Where heavenly spirits love to roam, And vice, as stalks it rudely by, Admires the Christian's happy home.

The present Pope, stimulated, by the efforts of these schohrs, established some years s;hce a Commission of Sacred A relneoloay for the express purpose of forwarding the .investigations in the catacombs ;And the French government, soon after •ils military occuption of Rome, likewise established o commission for the purpose or conducting independent investigations in the same field. The Mown catacombs conskt for the most ~art of a subterranean labyrinth of passages' cut throngh the soft volcanic rock of the Campagna, so narrow as rarely to admit of two persons walking abreast easi ly. but here and there on either side open. ing into chambers of varying size and form. The size of the pa.aages. through their whole extent, are lined with narrow excavations, ono above another, large e nough to admit of n body being placed in each; and where they remain in their nri• gond condition, these excavations are elo sed in front by tiles. or by n slab of marble cemented to the rock. and in mast cases. bearing an inscription. Nor is the laby rinth composed of possnges upon a vingle level only ; frequently there are several stories, connected with each other by slo• ping ways. There is no single circumstance. in rela tion to the catacombs, of store striking and at first sight perplexing character than their vast extent. About twenty different catacombs ore now known and are nom, or less open,—and n year is now hardly like ly to piss without the discovery of a sew tine; for the orig sal number of under ground cemeteries, asnsc..rtnined fro ~ the early authorities. was nearly. if not quite, three tittles this number. It is but a few years since the entrance to the famous rot ncoitib of St. Callixtus, one of the ino t interesting of till, was found by the Cavil liere ; and it wits only in the spring of 1b55 that the buried church and Cain comb of St. Aloxander on th.
