Wiiheimss,Ohe - NnpoleOn's New Resi-
dence.

From the Wheeling Intelligencer
Designated by King William OF Prussia,
as the residence OF Napoleon. is one of the
most delightful resorts of royalty in Ger
many. more on account of its fine location
and beautiful park than its palace. But
the most remarkable feature of the place is
the fine cascade, fountains, and other water
works, dcservedly ranked among the finest
of Europe, aud IL some respects sur
passing those OF Versailles, near Paris.
The mountain side upon which they are
located, situated about three miles from the
city of Cassel, Is about twelve hundred
feet in height. and crowned with a huge
structure called the Giants Castle, from
the Centes' OF which rises a pyramid ninety
SIX feet high supporting a statue of Her
culcs. This bronze figure. full thirty feet
high. represents Hercules, leaning ol a huge
club. having standing room inside for six Or
eight persons. The castle covers the reser-
v0ir containing the waters, which, on Sun
days and fcte days are tumbled down an
inclined plane OF three hundred yards, with
a width of forty feet, broken ut distances
of fifty yards with small basins, the whole
constructed Of solid masonry. bearing q re-
marl1able grottO-like and antique appear
ance. Al the foot the water is gathered
again to pass through al aGueduct that
looks like Il relic from ancient Rome. and
finally shoots up III a stream Of twelve
inches thickness to Il he1ght OF one hundred
and ninety feet.
In the park. which has some of the finest
walks and cultivated woods to be seen any
where, are a number Of other trifcs for the
pastime of royalty, such az a ruin built in
exact imitation Of a dilapidatcd castle of
the middle ages, also an extensive green
house with hoTal attractions from all
ciilnes. and statues and fountains innu-
merable.
All this was built by order Of Duke Carl
OF Hesse Cassel, at the beginning Oft last
century, with a desire TO construct some
thing which had not It's equal in the world.
Up to 1866 it was used by his descendants
as a summer residence, but the German war
OF that year left til the hands of the Prus-
slams, who now find it Of some use; for in
this retired yet c~harmingIy beautiful spot
his recent Imperial Majesty will have a fit
place to mediate over past grandeur and
human follics. w. f.. 5.
