the night was passed in exploring the singular
mansion. The garden was extensive and mag
nifcent in the extreme. Innumerable vines
were laden with the richest grapes.
The vintage was soon gathered by the thou
sands of soldiers who filled the alleys and oter-
ed in the arbors. Pots of preserves, of confec-
tionery, and of sWeetmeats of every kind, were
quickly devoured by an army of mouths. The
thousands of little eegancies which Europe, A.
STA and Africa had contributed to minister to the
voluptuous splendor OF the regal mansion, were
speedily transferred to the knapsacks of the SOL
dicrs.
The "Battle of the Pyramids" as Napoleon
Enthusiastically designated it, sent thrill of
terror far and wide into the interior of Asia and

The New York Tribune is, without doubt the
most thoroughly unprnciped of all the political
papers OF the United States, and which make the
least prctence to character or responsibility. Its
political quarrcls, appeals and eXhortatiOns, ey-
cite no other emotions than those Of profound
disgust Now here are the dough-face charac-
tertstlcs so marked and conspicuous as in It's for
chile feeble articles. Hypocrisy appears to be
