"PARIS BY SUNLIGHT AND GASLIGHT.'
wort descriptive of the -Mysteries and
Miseries, the Virtues, Vices, Bplendoes, and
Crimea of the . City of Paris.--By James D.
McCabe, Jr. National-Publishing Co; Phil.
•
A large and attractive volume of over
800 pages, magnificently illustrated with 160
fine engravings by the best. French artists,
Constituting the most attractive book ever
issued upon this subject. It is as instruc
tive as a history, and as thrilling as the best
sensation novel ever written. The' extent of
ground over which it ranges is remarkable,
for there is nothin: in Paris worth *mein_ or
bearing of that is not discussed in it. It
takes the reader into places where he would
not-dare-to-venture-bitnaelf r and—leads—him
from the splendors of the Imperial palaces
to the horrors of the Catacombs. It intro
duces him to virtue and vice in the gay City,
and shows• bow the latter quality leads' all
classes after it. It takes U 9 "behind the
Scenes," and tells us many a queer story of
the "aristocracy," and peeps with us,into the
g fatal register" in which the "lost women"
are inscribed. 'lt shows us the riotous joys
of student life, and tells us the secrets of the
great pawn broker establishment. It tells
of adventurers and edventuresses, and shows
bow they fasten upon and bleed their victims.
It initiates us into the mysteries of the
Secret Police," and carries us tY-watch—th-e
Can- Can at Mabille. It takes the masks
from the faces of the revellers at the Carnival
balls, and shots% us a fearful scene of demor
alisation. It abounds in the most brilliant
and spicy descriptions of the secrets and
_mysteries_of_the-wicked City, and is full of
the moat thrilling interest. But it is not
only a sensational work, It is oVerflowiog
with solid information, And history and
biography are served out to us with all the
attractiveness of romance. To those who
contemplate a visit to Paris now, or at some
future time—and there are but few Ameri
cans who do not cherish this hope—the book
is invaluable. To those who cannot go, it
mug also be very valuable.. It will afford
them an accurate and very extensive_ao
qttaintance with the leading objects of inter-
est in the gay capital of - France, pursued
often into the most minute details, The
book-is sold -by subscription only.
CAMERON VS. Da.vis.—The ex-President
of the late Confederate States having written
a - letter denying -- the -- statement — of—Senator
Cameron that he once told Davis that his
seat in the Senate would one day be occupied
by a colored man, the Philadelpbia,Fress re•
'fetishes his failing memory with the follow
ing reminiscence:
"In 1861, about two weeks before Mr.
Davis lett Washington to •*oin his bllow
'traitors in theou , enator Cameron met
Mrs. Davuron Pennsylvania avenue. In re
ply to her question ws to why be did not
"come and see Jeff.,'s the Senator said, "Why
does not Jeff., ask me ?'"•Well, I ask you
to come and breakfast with us to-morrow
mincing." "At what bond" "Nine o'clock."
"I will be there." f •
"At the time mentioned Senator Cameron
made him appearance, and after breakfait the
conversation naturally turned upon the then
attitude of the South. Davis was. as 'Usual,
outspoken in his secession views, and threat
ened that if it came to the ;vast, and blood
had to flow, war would be waged in the
States North of= "Mason and Dixion's line.—
As may well be supposed, such words were
not pleasing to the Pennsylvania Senator,
and he answered in effect that the rebellious
section would be brought back into .the
Union, and that he firmly believed that, if
the South persisted in its course, not only
would the slaves all be set free, but that
'One day a'cOlored mon will occupy your
seat, Mr. Davis, i s the United States Sen
ate ! '
"Davis, in great anger, turned to Senator
Cameron and said that the North, not the
South, would suffer from the coming war,
and that he himself would "lead a party to
burn to the ground your property, Mr. Cam•
eron, in Pennsylvania."
'•Of this incident Mr. Davis appears to be
as forgetful as he has been of his oath.—
When the invasion of Pennsylvania was at
tempted by the rebel army, one of the gener
als received orders to destroy, if possible, the
property of Simon Cameron and Thaddeus
Stevens. They burnt that of the latter, and
were on their way to destroy Gen. Cameron's,
when they turned upon their track
"This is a plain, rtraight story. Cameron
fulfilled his prophecy better than Davis did
his threat."
MR. LINCOLN'S RELIGION.-A statement
has recently been going the rounds of many
of the Southern newspapers to the effect
that President Lincoln was an Atheist. ln
reply to this Rev. John Tyler, a colored
clergyman of Newark, writes the following

of my own personal knowledge. In tho year
1865, while a chaplain at Freedmen's Village,
on Arlington Heights, after the assasinstion,
but three weeks before Mrs. Lincoln left the
White House, I dined with the servants
employed at the house, some of whom had
