The Paris Catacombs.

In accordance with annual custom,
some engineers of the municipality, re-
Gently visited the catacombs, which X
tend to a considerable distance beneath
Paris OH the left bank of the river. The
object Of the visit was to ascertain that
the arches, pillars, &c, which support
the roof remain perfectly solid. The
engineers were accompanied by some
gentlemen and ladies; and il is only on
the occasion of these annual inspections
that the catacombs can be visited at all.
The entrance is in the courtyard OF what
was formerly the ~octroi-oifice of the
the Barriere d'Enfcr. 1t is closed by a
thick door, and the catacombs are reach
ed by a long, narrow staircase, descend
inc about 40 feet. A man at the door,
counts the persons who enter, and gives
each a lighted candle, which he Is re-
auired constantly to carry. At the bot
tom of the staircase is a long narrow
/ gallery, the sides and roof of which are
supported by masonry. This gallery, in
which only two persons can walk
abreast, leads to a spacious vault be-
meath the Plaine dc Mont Souris, and
in which vault are collected the bone
formerly removed from the old ccmete-
rics of Paris. Near the entrance to the
vault is the inscription, NinsuLez pas du1

INTERESTING TO CLERKS n SHERTFFs.-
Heretofore, in all the Legislation that
has been had on the subject of Criminal
Expenses, the State has allowed the
country Clerks and Sheriffs a small an
nual compensation for ex-ollicio servi-
ces-Sheriffs 500 per annum, and
Clerks $50. When the Legislature OF
SO abolished tile act of SO requiring
the State to pay all the expenses incl
dent to the prosecution of criminals, no
mention is made of the act of '55, under
which the compensation for cx-otficio
services is allowed, bat the Auditor
takes the position that the act Of 30 is
also abolished. The amounts allowed
! TO Clerks and Sheriifs heretofore is not
at all adequate compensation for the
services rendered and they may now
very reasonably refuse to perform such
services before the Grand Jury, as are
necessary to the administration OF the
law. The act of 1855 should either be
abolished. or re-enacted.--B. Il. COMET.

lie immediately ordered the SlOOp-Ot-
war Saratoga, Capt. Turner, to go in
pursuitof the steamers. The Saratoga, !
only carrying sail, was towed down by
the steamers ~Indianola, Of this port, and
the Wave, plying on the Mexican coast.
The Marin steamers had just cast an
Choir at Anton Lizardi, when the Sara
toga came up with them. They still
had steam up, however, and seemed to
have taken a position as if to put at
oncc to sea III case Of icing ovcrhaulcd.
The Saratoga, however, seems to have
taken them unawarcs, though the O
was shining brightly, and at once took
a position t. cut of all retreat. Marin
then prepared to give fight.
In the meantime. Capt. Turner dis
patched "A small boat to the steamers,
with 4 flag, to demand their nationality.
Marin fired upon it. The boat, howcv-
cr. continued its course; Marin fired up
on it the second time. The Saratoga
then launched a broadside upon the
steamer, commanded inperSonby Marin.
This was the Gen. Miramnn, and seemed
best armed. She was pilotcd by a man
named Flores, well known at Vera Cruz.
The other steamer was commanded by
one Capt. SANCHEZ, formerly of the Mex
lean war steamcr Democratic, which he
betrayed.
One account SAYS Marin fought like n
lion. but others say that un the opening
| Of fire, both steamers tried To- run away.
They were, however. intercepted Ivy the
lndianola and the Wave.
1t was. however, two or three o'clock
in the morning before Marin surrender
ed. He was taken on board the sara
tora. Nearly all the officers and crews
of both steamers were also captured,
either by the Indiamola or Wave. and
taken up to Vera Cruz, where they were
distributed between the Savannah, Sar-
atoga and Prcblc.
The number of the wounded on board
| the W. steamers was about thirty
! They were taken on board the Saratoga,
and their wounds promptly dressed
Among the wounded was Capt. Flores,
who has since had his arm amputatcd at
Vera Cruz.
Tie number of Americans wounded
was tlrce-ouc mortai,y. We have not
learned his name. He belonged to the
Prchlr.
Afcw Of Marin's men made good their
escape 10 the shore, but a number of
Miramon's men who had already gone
ON board the steamers, were captured.
Among these last captures was Mir
amon's principal agent, who is said to
have hid himself in an obscure corner
when the firing began, but he had the
misfortune after all to be badly wound
ed.
The Gen. Miramon was very badly in,
iured by the Saratoga's b~roadside, and
only gotten ahoat with difficulty. The
Indianola also received several shots,
but they did her no serious injury
Susnon as the action commenced, the
two steamers hoisted the Spanish FLAG.
After their arrival in Vera Cruz, sew
cral IF the prisoners made apublic state
me-, in which they detailed the history
Of the whole expedition. 1t does no
differ from the above. They all testify
!. that the Mexican flag was not raised un
, Ill after both steamers left the port o

GREAT EXCITEMENT AT VERA CRUZ.
IFrn,n the Delts.l-

PAssE A L'0UrRE, March l9.-Thc Mex
lean steamer Marquis has arrived inside
the Bar at this Pass, as a United States
prize in charge Of Lieut.. Chapman, Of
the United States sloop-of-war Saratoga.
She left Vera Cruz on the llth inst,
but before reaching the mouth Of the
river her engines broke down, and she
was detained outside until the towboat
Apglo-SaXon came to the rescue and
lowed the prize inside the bar.
The Marquis brings full particulars
of the capture of Commodore Marin's
expedition, recently fitted out at Havana
for the purpose of aiding Miranon IN
his operations against Vera Cruz and
other Mexican ports on the Gulf.
The two steamers were well supplied
with provisions, ammunition, and such
other supplies as Miramon's army stands
most in need of.
The General Miramon. which was at
Southwest Pass this morning, in charge
of Lieut.. Minor, and the Marquis, were
both taken off Anton Lizard, on the
morning of the 9th inst, by the United
States slUop-of-war Saratoga.
The steamer Marquis has a portion Of
the prisoners which were taken on
board, and the United states steamer
Preble, which was to have left Vera
Cruz on the l4th, is hourly expected
with the remainder Of the prisoners.
The officers in charge of the Marquis
report that the town of Alvarado, which
had been previously dismantled 10y the
Liberals, was in possession Of Mira
mons troops.
Miramon was actively bcsieging Vera
Cruz, but with slight chance of ~success
now that his supplies and support from
seaawerc entireiy cut off.
The Liberal forces in the interior had
been rapidly concentrating on the City
Of Mexico, which was now entirely sur
rounded.
Much bad feeling existed among The
French and Spanish fleets against th'
American, and great excitement pre-
vailed generally at Vera Cruz in Consc
uence of what is considered by man!
the high-handed action of Commodor'
Turner in capturing these steamers.
