STRANGE SoNYANBULIsM.-A matter offac,,
unconscious Scotchman opens his autobiogra.
ply in an English periodical in the following
wosds:
q am not 10 the slightest degree Of an i'm
aginative turn Of mind farm my own land
l am church warden of our parish fifty years
Of age. and weigh one hundred and eighty FIVE
pounds Ny memory is far from good. There
has been no instance of somnambulism 10 our
family, except during the last Oxford vacation,
when my eldest boy was observed By his moth
er walking sound asleep. but with his eyes
open towards the maid servants room He
had apparently not gone to bed, but must have
fallen asleep with his clothes 90. Ga my wiie's
getting new maid, there was no recurrence OF

to consider that solitary instance proof that

An ExHUNEp CIrY-A most singular dis
covery has been made on the French coast
near the mouth of the Garonne. \ town has
been discovered buried in the sand, and a
church has already been extracted. Its origi-
Dal plan shows it to have been built towards
the close of the Roman Empire, but changes
made in it had given it the appearance of an.
ediice of mixed style, in which Gothic archi-
lecture has usurped the place of the Roman.
Its original painting, its admirable sculptured
choir and Roman capitals, are adorned with
profuse ornaments, which are attracting num-
bers of visitors. This temple is all that remains
of those cities described by Pliny and by Stra-
DO; the Gulf of Gascony abounds in ruins Of
those ancient cities. 1t has been 1900 years
since Novigamus, the Ole capital of Medoc
which was celebrated city when the Romans
were masters OF Gaul, was buried under the
ocean of all of that tract of territory. The
Roche du Cordouan alone is visible. The re
mains of Roman roads, the site of Jupiters
temple, the vestiges of the Spanish Moors, and
the read of Eleonore, have been rescued from
the sands in the neighborhood of the long bu-
ried city of Soulac. Nowhere have the ero
sions Of the ocean been greater than on the
coast of Gascony.

A STRAw-PAPER MILL.-Within half at.
hours ride of Poughkeepsie, there formerly
stood an old tumbledown rookery which had
been used for cotton MILL Recently it has
been braced up and patched and filed with
machinery for the manufacturing of straw pa
per. Notwithstanding the forbiddiDg exterior
Of this structure, the interior is well worth
visit. Rye straw is pressed in sheaves through
one door, and taken out in the form of paper
at the other. Great machines are employed to
cut and crush and grind the straw. Immense
kettles are used to boil the material, after which
it is beached and put through various process
es. until it becomes good, white, flexible print
ing paper. The paper on which the Tribune
almanac is printed was made here. The profit
on straw paper must be enormous. In differ
ent parts Of the country there are many similar
mills in operation, and before long there can be
no doubt that they will drive dear rag paper
out of the market New York Tribune.

BEECHER--A Yankee editor, who recently
heard Henry Ward Beecher lecture for the

lowing irst-rate notice: ~0f Henry Ward
Beecher as man and minister, we know lit

able, the most conceited, the most pathetic,
The most silly, the most eloquent, the most
vulgar that We ever saw before a refined au-
dience- He can go from the sublime to the
ridiculous and from the ridiculous to the sub

description the most beautiful, and can display

The sun was now sinking over the bleak
bleak hills of the north. Sullenly the Russian
army commenced its retreat, but with the in
domitable courage characteristic Of the Rus
slams, they disputed every inch Of ground. Had
Napoleon then called in his reserve, the Rus-
sian army might, perhaps, have been destroyed,
and the carnage would have been far more
dreadful For not doing this, he has been. in
military point Of view, severely censured.-
He, however, remarked oil the time to General
Dumas
People viii, perhaps, be astonished that l
have not brought forward my reserves to OBJ
tain greater success. But l felt the necessity
Of preserving them to strike decisive blow.
in the great battle which the enemy viii prob
ably give US in the plains in front Of Moscow.
The saccesS Of the action in which we have
been engaged was secured. But it was my
duty to think of the general result Of the cam
paigu, and it was for that that spared my
reserves"
The evening of victory even 10 the conquer
ors was not one Of exultatiou. Thirty thou
sand Frenchmen, including forty. three generals
had been either killed or wounded. The loss
Of the Russians was still more dreadful. Ac-
cording to his invariable custom, Napoleon
rode that night over the CORY field, paying the
most aSsiduous attention to the wounded on
both sides. His sympathies were peculiarly
excited by Russian soldier in dreadful suffer
ing Some one, to soothe him, remarked &" 1t
is only Russian." He replied, with warmth.
After victory there are no enemies but only
men. - Abbott.
