Mr.. BUCHANAN is reported to have said that,
while he was Minister to Russia, the Government
was quite as well informed as he was of all cor
respondence of diplomatic nature. 1t is
well-known fact that Louis XIV. Of France ac-
tually kept twenty clerks secretly occupied in
intcrcepting letters by mail, and making ex-
tracts from them. 1t was in that manner Louis
discovered that one of his Ministers, (the Count
dArgensson,) upon whom he had lavished fa-
vors, was in the habit of writing to a favorite
mistress, in which he spoke, without reserve or
respect, of the kings character. Such things,
however, are very rare at this time. Not obso-
lete, however, we imagine.

INVENTION OF PAPER.-The materials first
used for writing were the leaves or inner bark
Of trees, afterwards linen, and tables covered
with wax. About the time Of Alexander the
Great, paper first began to be manufactured
from the Egyptian plant called papyrus, (cue-
rus Pa1yras.) This plant has several coats, one
above the other, like the coats Of an onion,
which, being separated by sharp instrument
and moistened with water, were put under n
press and afterwards dried in the sun. Besides
these several preparations, parchment, made Of
the skins of goats, was also used, which con-
tinued in use until the invention Of paper from
cotton, by the Arabians, A, d. FOG. In the 18th
century, paper manufactures were established
in the Christian kingdom of CASTLE; and in the
fourteenth century, the knowledge Of the art
found its way into Italy, after which time paper
manufactured from cotton and linen came into
general use
