4 PARIS letter to the New York
Times says: Gen. Ducrot's book is still
the topic of conversation in club and
army circles, and there is no little
curiosity to See what Gen. de Wimpfen
is going to do about it, That doughty
warrior has been completely demolish-
ed. He has not an inch of defense, and,
10 make matters worse, he had been
brought out in absolute islsehoods in
trying to throw the blame upon other
shoulders which should forever rest
upon bis own. At length We have
something like the truth about Sedan,
and We find that it was the vanity OF
Gen. de Wimpffen which threw the
army back into that dreadful chasm
after its movement Of retreat had really
been begun. He did not know that
Gen. Won Moltke was simply amusing
him in front while working TO surround
him, and the plan was carried out so
well that, as King William said in his
report, the French army was surround
ed in an open field The general i'm.
preston is that de Wimpfen will
challenge Ducrot."

From the New fork sum-
Reporter-You went to see the Great
Wall of China. Please state whether
you were disappointed on seeing it, as
travellers are generally disappointed on
first seeing Niagara.
Mr.. Seward-I don't think that the
Almighty made any mistake in Mag

matter it is in the creatures that be
made to study and contemplate his
works. The Chinese have been for at
least two or three thousand years a

China is the great wall of the world. 1t
is forty feet high. The lower thirty
feet is OF hewn limestone or granite.
Two modern carriages may pass each
other upon the summit. 1t has a par
apet throughout its whole length, with
convenient staircases, buttresses, and
garrison houses at every quarter of q
mile, and it runs, not cutting down hills
and raising valleys, but over the uneven
crests of the mountains and down
through their gorges, distance OF a

| calculated that it would cost more
now to build the Great Wall Of China
through its extent of one thousand
miles than it has cost to build fifty-f'e
thousand miles OF railroad in the
United States. What a commentary it
is upon the ephemeral range of the hu-
man intellect TO see this great utilitarian
enterprise, so necessary and effective
two thousand years ago, now not merely
useless, but an incumbrance and an OBJ
struction.

oil well has been opened at Titusvile.
A correspondent Gays that for nine
hours it flowed a stream OF beautiful
amber and rose-tinted oil of sixteen
degrees gravity. as large as stovepipe,
at the rate Of four hundred and thirty.
seven barrels per hour. The oil is go
heavy that it foamed perpendicular
column OF six inches in diameter that
would push its way several hundred
feet into the air, when, becoming
partially melted by the suns rays, and
overcome by its weight, it would break
off near the ground and fall over like
an immense tallow candle struck With
a club"
The author Of the above story would
