Napoleon lll.'s Life of Cesar,

The Athenmum says, in reference to this forthcoming
work :—" To show how fine a thing it is to be an Empe-
ror and an author, let us state that Napoleon the Third
—with a view to carefully learning the military prac-
tice of the Romans at the time of Coosa; and in order
to make his forthcoming history of Julius as perfect as
study under favourable circumstances will permit—caused
an able and learned officer of artillery to ascertain the mili-
tary costume, the arms, armour, accoutrements, trappings,
and other warlike instruments—including those proper for
siege service, the camp and the field, and to reconstruct
the same in the most perfect manner that care and bound-
less wealth allowed. At the Tuileries has been formed a
museum of such articles, derived from ancient sculptures,
descriptions, and drawings on pottery, &c.; there appear
the tents, waggons, standar4 haversacks, straps, boats,
bridge Machinery, shovels, the balista, falarica, catapult,
bow and arrow. Each has been carefully reproduced and
fitted for use, so that when the author desired to see a
tribune, centurion, decurion, or private soldier exactly as
Caesar saw him, all that needed to-be done was to call a
Cent-Garde and clothe him from the museum. The ghost
of Caesar himself might be invoked with even less of fear
than Brutus had, and the " Ay, at Philippi," of the un-
matchable spirit have no terror for his successor."
Another of our weekly contemporaries remarks upon the
same subject as follows :—" The first volume of the Vie
de'Cdsar,' as intended for private distribution, is in quarto.
The book itself belongs rather to the class ' panegyrics'
than to the sterner one of historical biography,' and the
shade of the great Roman, as in a dissolving view, now
and then disappears sufficiently to bring the forms of
the two Napoleons, uncle, and nephew, prominently
forward. The Marseilles paper announce the publica:-
tion of the first volume for the first week in March.
The work will consist of three volumes octavo, each
containing from 40 to 50 sheets, at 10 francs per volume
and of an atlas of maps, the price of which is not yet named.
To this Ost Deutsche Post adds, that an Italian translation
will also appear, so that the work will be simultaneously
issued in French, English, German, and Italian. The
Geroldische Buchhandlung of Vienna has secured the right
of translation into Garman by payment, it is said, of 20,000
thalers. To Professor Ritschl, of Bonn, has been entrusted
the German version, and each sheet, as soon as struck off,
will be forwarded in duplicate to the Emperor of the French,
an accomplished German scholar, who will finally revise the
translation and attach his signature to each sheet. The
entire proceeds will be given to the poor. The same paper
says that for the right of translation of the first volume
alone, the English publishers have paid 11,000. To Mr.
Thomas Wright, the antiquary, has been confided the
translation into English. Mr. Wright is eminently quali-
fied for the task ; he is a thorough master of the two lan-
guages, and has a knowledge of Roman antiquities in
France and Germany no less than of those which exist in
Britain.

A new house in course of construction on the
Boulevard Bonnefoi, at Toulouse, suddenly fell, two days
since, and buried in its ruins a mason, and a young woman
of 22, who had come with his dinner. Immediate measures
were adopted for extricating them, but both were dead
when taken out. The accident is :supposed to have been
caused by =ovations made too near the foundations.
