This city abounds with turions eithibitions. The most curious and unlike all Fitt: rest is the Catacombs. A few days since we ventured amotig them. The French with the usual inconsequence of a giddy people wonder at the English all over, but if the wonder has any peculiar object, that is their love of sight-seeing, and above all their visits to the Catacombs. Fashion. has however operat ed on the French themselves, and they are gra enally beginning to reckon those fearful and re volting'singularities among the agremens of Paris. We lately made the experiment for ourselves. The Barriere d'Enfer, a broad opening shaded with the trees which make the finest ornament of the city, let us out on the pathway to the western entrance. The door was at length opened, every one was equipped with a lighted taper, and thus like beings about to take leave of the upper _world for ever, we disappeared in succession through a cavity scarcely wider than to admit the human body. There was no room for courage, as there was none for fear, but the descent. was Of ninety precipitous steps ; froni its 'clOseness; and from the danger of falling on the next in order, each person was son-;ewhat alone, the lights were feeble, and obstructed by the heaviness of the air, cold and earby smelling gusts rushed at intervals .up the pit, and little as there was in all this to excite serious awe, there was at least growing soberness. The hughing and forwarii gaiety that ilad exhibited itself wow , ' some of the party in the beginning had now sunk into silence, and it was obvious that tl , e place was pioducing its effeci.--The Gallery now wound on through heaps of mouldering chalk and stone on either side, frag ments of former works crushed in by the fall of the earth above. Here the more curious some times make a still lower descent to visit what is called the Port Mahon. The story of this work 'is characteristic of the whims which sometimes , seize on men thrown out of their natural habits of life. A Veteran Soldier, one of, the workmen, accidentally discovered by the falling •in of the ground, that there had been a Gallery. beneath. He made his way down to it, found himselfalone, and resolved to commemorate his name at least. under ground. `He had been a prisoner in Mi norca, and his labour was devoted to cuttiog. time cavern into a Model of Port Mahon. All this was clone by the light of the miserable fain!)leau allowed It! tife workmen occupied all his ; hours Of rest, and it was'hryond the reach of casual admiration, for it was accessible only by a cavity into which no man but a veteran miner would venture; yet at this he, toiled incessantly for five years, from 1-777.t0 1782.:—.a strong instance of the serious folly to which t»en tuarbe led by cir cumstances, and of the sinister and strange de light with which our nature attaches itself to the most repulsive pursuits, where they once give the idea of exclusive production or peculiar property. But, like personages of greater fame, this builder of his own renown perished from an attempt : to giVe it a loftier diffusion. His work was done, and he begat' to feel the necessity of admiration; it was next to impossible to approach his cavern by the conduit that had served his own reptilism for so many years. His ambition prompted him to cut out a Staircase. The-last pillar at his new fabric fell on him; and he was so much hurt, that he shortly died. Napoleon has,. after all, done little more ;—a great grave-digger, the last pillar fell on him and crushed him, with less of human foss or sorrow than the Veteran of the Catacombs. Decure has not however totally perished. It the reward of his labours has come late, it has come in all the fullness of a Frenchman's desire of im mortality. The Superintendant.ot the Galleries has erected near the Port Mahon a stone, with theinscriptionr-,- Cet ouvrage fat commence en 1777 Par Decure, rfit Beaustjour, Veteran De sa Mojeste, et fini en 1782. An honour perhaps higher, and 'lmre coveted still, awaited his memory. In 1787, in the midst of the trembling and voices that foretold the fall of the monarchy, the Prince d'Artois, then the gayest of the gay, made a pilgrilliage to the Port Mahon, and- with a cortege of the most showy women of the Palace, took' a repast on Dectire's table. The French can dine and dance any whke. d'i'e had. now arrived at the entrance of the ac tual catacombs. A narrow way, traced on the roof by a long black line„ as a clue to the un fortunates who might scray there; deep, rugged recesses, from which issued from .time to time, blasts that made all our tapers flare, and a damper cold prepared us for the region into which we were entering. The passage was so circumscribed as to stretch the prOcession into a long single line of pale faces and dim clothings, cast into different shades as the light was thrown wavering round by the air. There was alino.,t total silence. '.Affil in the midst of this suspence, each saw .tl►e 7 lAow and muffled form before him suddenly vaniihing within a low portal, inscribed Arrete !

We' have espied (italics and all) troth the iclei the tastet Instructions issued by the Inquisition in Bpairt to the Bishops, on the sub . - ject of the Confessions made in the Roman Church at that period, and directed. to, the extirpation of heresies. The Cltennicte is in a violent passion with this piece of church discipline, and exclaims (mart the, italic in the original and itfthe quota tion)---- " The Inquisition tells the faithful, thai they iniy be con taminated with the el.; brs heicsies If some qf the nations which hate occupied the soil ll: Spain. Can this allude to any but the English ? Are not tlift• contiddal intuits, as well as many political acts on the part of the Goverfinient of Madrid, sufficient testimonies to sliew, that Ferdinand amid his belov ed • Inquisitors and Jesuits, and all the surrounding Willis and Friars, consider it a misfortune that the liberation of tire PeIIIIISILILL is °Whig to us, and that it is a point of policy now to eradicate a contrary belief from among the people. The translator of this document for the Chro nicle may possibly be able to tell whether it is the " heresies of some of the nations," as in the quo tation, or the " lit.resies of the different nations," as in the Instruction's ior if the latter be correct, • it is pretty obvious that all the conclusions of the Writer are fallacious, and that the passage may .01ttcle to other nations as %yell as the English, which can scarcely be Called " the different na, dons." The visual defects of which the Chronicle com plains, certainly extend beyond the Theatres. P E RY. TO A COVENT-GARDEN NIGUTINOALE, Smpposed to lie fled to Worcester.

Mr. CHNRLES KEMBLC, after an absence of , three seasons front Covent Garden Theatre, re turned to it last night in the character of Macbeth. Nothing conic! be more flattering than the recep tion,which he experienced "when he first appeared upon the bridge, but he reset vet! his acknowledg ments till he descended, and bad advanced towards the trout of the Oage, when the cheerings of the audience were-renewed and reiterated in the warm est manner. He manifested • a deep sense ,of ‘gra titude for this obvious proof Of public. estimation. His performance of the very difficult part which he §all to represent was highly creditable to his ta lents, his judgment, and his industry. It 'Was evident that he was fully aware . o[ the arduous task Which he had to sustain, and that he had examined the text with critical solicitude. The result was, that he really gave new lights to some passages, too generally taken upon trust, though, in a sew others, perhaps, he displayed too re fined a construction. Rut the great features of the charactor were presented with effect. from the calm _dignity of innocence which marked his demeanour before he had heard the baleful geatulations of the Weird Sisters, through the gradual progress of guilt, and compunctious visitings of con science, till he became hardened it) atrocity,, and resolved to know "by the worst means the worst." • These different stages of the character were well discriminated,- anti prominently given. We: are . of opinion, that it Mr. CHARLES KEMBLE did not bear so strong a resemblance in person to his brother, whose Macbeth is a masterpiece of acting, his pet fOrmance last night would have made a still stronger impression than it did on the general feelings. It was much applauded. On the whole, it was digHifieli, judicious, and im pressive, and if nut the best of his professional achievements, was characterized by acting of no ordinary description. Tire afterpieee was The it,e view, or th 6 Wags of Windsor; anti TOKELT, frtrm the Haymarket Theatre, was the Looney Mac ttotilter. JOHNSTO'gR is so admirable in this part, that great allowance ought to be made for any SOCCCSSOV. TOKELY is very well as a Boor, but he has much to learn as an Irishman. DOCTORS DIFFER..--Mr. CHARLES KEMBLE'S Macbeth Of which we think very highly) has been c ensured by one Morning Critic, because (a strouge reason too !) he plays the minor scenes, too well : another Critic tells us that there arc no minor scenes, for the character stands prominent- In; forth throughout ! Under these circumstances, it a should like to know bow\ a performer migh; play the part so as to please both these Critics and frankly confesl, that, with such opinions, Macbeth must be far above the powers of the ac complished Actor• who se ably represented the Ty • rant last nizbt.
