THE new library of the city of Paris,
intended to replace that burnt by the
Communists, has been opened to the
public. 1t occupies portion OF the
Hotel Carnavalet in the Rue Sevinge,
near the Musee Historique, now in
process of formation. Although, alas !
but II poor substitute for the splendid
collection of 10000 volumes which
persisted, the new library, even in
point of numbers, has made fair
commencement. 1t contains as many
as $1,000 volumes of pamphlets, and
10000 engravings. About 5000 of the
books, and $4,000 Of the engravings
have been presented to the library; the
rest have been purchased. Only about
hundred volumes from the old library
survive, being those that had been let
out previously to the fire. The new
library is indebted to the librorian, NJ.
Cousin, for gift of 5000 volumes and
1000 engravings; also to M. Besancon,
doctor in medicine, for an extensive
collection of books, pamphlets, news
papers, d6iches and other documents
relating to therevolution of lS4S.

for the past two or three weeks with u
severe attack of typhoid fever, which
affected his brain. About eight o clock
Sunday night he got out of bed and
succeeded in leaving the house
unobserved and attired as already
stated. From the house he walked
through the snow to Snake Hill, n
distance of about four miles, and II Is
supposed, tried TO get in through the
window, to the bars of which he was
found frozen. The attending physi-
clan has some little hope of his ulti-
mate recovery, but it is scarcely posi-
BILE that q man weakened by disease as
he was can survive such terrible hard
ship and exposure.

THE famine in Hindustan has ex-
tended to Nepaul, on the southern slope
of the Himalayas, whose two millions
Of people are already Strengthened for
food. There is no knowing where the
starvation will stop, or how many of
Brtain's 10000, 1000 Indian subjects
will die before the new crop is gather
ed. The civil war in the United States
caused the culture Of cotton to be pro-
noted in Hindustan to so great an ex-
tent that in the western provinces
alone in single year (ls60) there was
q million acres more of cotton cult
waited than the previous year. But
every million acres of cotton means u
million acres of grain less; and what
this means, in so densely peopled a
land, the dispatches tell us.--[Courier-
