A Late Discovery mt Pompeif.


The form of another human body which
had been impressed on the ashes of Pom
peii has been preserved in plaster of Paris
within the last few days. The cast is said
to be extremely beautiful, and far supe ior
to any which have hitherto been taken.
The head is a portrait; the nose is long and
decidedly acquiline, the lips full and half
open, the ears enormously large.
There is no muscular contraction indica
ative of violent DEATH and the whole
person, which is in the pose of one who
sleeps placid sleep, shows that this un-
happy citizen of POmpeii died of asphyxia.
He lies on the left side, resting the head on
the right hand, while the other arm, bent
under the breast, is almost concealed; the
legs are drawn up unegually, the left more
than the right, which is stretched out natu-
rally.
Around the loins was linen covering,
which concealed small portion of the
legs; the breast was naked, without the
shirt, unless there be some appearance of
one under the left armpit; but the feet were
naked, and these have been cast magnif-
Gently. 1t is worthy of note that this body
was found at a remarkable height, almost
on the level of the second story, and near IT
were few pieces of money in bronze and
silver. Thus another interesting addition
is made to the casts of human forms now in
the museum.
The first experiment of the kind was
made ga long time ago" by the Commenda-
tore Fiorelli, now director of the national
in the presence of your correspon-
dent. 1t created a great sensation at the
time. as well it might, for it brought to
light, if not to life, some of the victims of
that great eruption which buried whole
city beneath its ashes, and presented us
with types of the race who once pc opled
the streets of that now silent city.

Everybody was satisfied, and sweet peace
resumed her sway; but here, beyond
doubt, was an occasion where the interven-
ton of foreign power would be quite JUS
tifiable, seeing that the Kings government
was powerless to re-establish order. Luna
lilos health is very bad which does not

Now that the statesman Tweed has as

while some of his disciples in statesman

There were forty silver sets, any one of
which would have attracted a crowd if

James Fisk, Jr., sent a frosted silver con
trivance representing an iceberg. evidently
intended to mold ice cream or some equally
frigid substance. The association was
beautifully sustained by the presence of
arctic bears repOsing on the icicle handles
of the bowl and climbing up the spoons
enough, Mr.. Fisk displayed the
same taste as Superintendent kelso. and
their offerings were exact duplicates.
Among the names on the silver were
Shandley, Norton, Witthans, Carnochan,

forty pieces of jewelry. of which fifteen |

AN IMPROVED LooK.-People and things
generally around the city wear an i'm
proved look. The great lever, money, is
more plentiful, and even poor folk can feel
of dollar occasionally. Considerable
currency changed hands before and during
Christmas, but purchasers on Canal street
did not invest large sums as in years past.
People promenade the principal streets
with more cheerful faces, and some ladies
dress as extravagantly as they did when
coin grew on bushes. Fast horses rattle
out the shell roads quite lively, and blow
the expense. Canal street ia really bril-
liant with snowy goods and fashionable ap-
Parel, and the theatres are doing pa ing
business. That is on the surface. Leave
the central thoroughfares and look into
back streets, where hundreds Of mechanics
are holding their hands because they can
not find employment There you will find
little to provoke pleasant thoughts, for
poverty stares out of many points. The
subject is not lovely to contemplate, there
fore pass It by.

another full turning and struck without
delay: Now right here is where Captain
Joseph has been misinformed; he says it
was ten minutes after the second turning
before tho bell rang-whereas it was ten
minutes before the second turning was
given, which second turning received an
immediate reply from this oftice-our opera
tors are all young men. with good eyesight,
and neither of them, that night were

to decipher good square turning and set
the bells ringing for fire. Now we will take
up the report of Operator Rodgers. He
says: At eleven O'clock and ifty-nine
minutes, l tested my lines as usual, and
lad just finished when q short and very
miserable turning came in. 1t was impos-
sible to decipher it. A period of thirty
seconds elapsed when the alarm from box
No. 242 came in, for which the alarm was
sounded before the turning ceased.
Captain Mccain says the delay was
caused by the box No. 235 being ont of
order. The captain is wrong, as 1 visited
the box the next morning. and found not
only that box, but every other one on the
line In perfect order. Now, it is said there

% tremendous difference between good
