A MYSTERY or THE PAsr-.An immense
catacomb cIn be seen at Rothwell in the in
terror Of England, near the direct route from
Liverpool to London. 1t is an immense
vault built Of masonry under church which
dates back apparently for its first erection to
about the year llj0, and contains the skclc.
tons of 10000 men, probably warriors Of
grea: size, piled up in regular order so that
skulls and large bones only appear on the
outside of the piles. The skulls show marks
of spear and hatchet, but no gunshot wounds,
and their owners probably fell in mortal con-
hict anterior to the inyenrrru of gunpowdcr
The vault was discovered by accident 100
years ago, and has no connection with the
church as far as known; in fact the mystery
IS that there is no historical evidence nor
Iraditiouary legend which throws tho least
light upon the obsourtiy of iis creation. No
anatoniist, historian, etnnolpgist, uutiq
nor savan OF any stripe has been able to de,
eide the people even, 20 whom these bones
once belonged. Mere they native sa1onl,
or Romans, Danes, Nyrmnns, or WHAT No

powers The French soldier is except the
Russian, the dirlieSt soldier in Europe, little
or no attention is paid by his superiors to,
the cleanliness OF his person. His beard, his,
hair his linen and his nccktie are almost as
much under his own control while in tho
ranks as before his enlistment As long. ne.
he wears the regulation coat, the regulation
trousers aud regulation CATERS, his officers
don't trouble themselves much about every
button being in its place, how HIS shoes arc
laced, or when he shaved. His BELTS black,
and so are all his accoutrements. Tho same
laSity is visible in his movements or, the
march. The line he forms is dsjuinted, ir-
regular and moves fast rather than evenly.
Keeping step is evidently matter TO which,
the troops have not been taught to pay very
much attention. They seem TO trot or rum.
BILE alorg rather than march. To wheel face
about, walk and run rapidly and dexterously
arc the main objects of their drill. Square
ness and regularity, straightness and uni
formity are clearly Of secondary importance.
Nothing can present a greater contsssb
than all this does to the English, Austrian
and Prussian systems. In the British service
cleanliness is placed amongst the first of mil
itary Virtues The soldiers face-washing,
shaving, and hnir-cutting are all matters in,
