Who would have thought that, since
the accession of Napoleon |. To the i'm
perial throne, three thousand three hun
dred and nineteen titles of hereditary
nobility had been conferred upon
Frenchmen by the monarchs who have
reigned over France under the altornat-
ing titles of Emperor and King. Yet
such would appear to be the case, if the
information contained in Count llaner-
Steenbuyse's amusing work upon "Feu
dial Customs" just published in Paris,
may be relied upon. Napoleon the
Great. during his brief reign, created
nine princes. thirty-two dukes, three
hundred and lightweight counts and
one thousand and ninety barons. Louis
XVIII end Charles Y rewarded their
adherents' loyalty with an equally copi-
Gus shower Of titles. Seventeen princes,
seventy dukes, seventeen marquesses,
sixty-thrce counts, sixtv-two viscounts,
two hundred and fifteen barons and
seven hundred and cighty.fiye simple
mobiles" were added TO the list of French
aristocrats under the LegitimIst rule of
the Bourbons. Louis Philippe, being.n
Citizen-kinr, was somewhat more chary
Of bestowing hereditary honors than his
august cousins had been. He created
only three dukes, nineteen counts, seven
teen viscounts and ffty-ninc barons.

All alike will be interested in the fol.
lowing extract from Il letter which has
Just been received from Mr.. Stanley, the
famous African explorer, by an intimate
friend. The letter is dated from Banana
Point, at the mouth of the Congo river,
September 10. and says:
"All this year | have been very busy
and have worked hard. | have equipped
one expedition on the East coast; have
reconstructed another-namely, the In
ternational-of whose misiortuncs we
heard 50 oftcn, and have explored per-
sonally several new districts on the East
coast. Having finished my work salts
factorly TO myself, my friends and those
who sent me, came through the Medi-
terranean and round TO this spot, where
l arrived two years and four months ago,
on that glorious day on which we sighted

ously and deliberately, with a grand OBJ

supported by the philanthropic society
which numbers noble-mindcd men of
several nations. 1t is not a religious So
ciety, but my instructions are entirely of
that spirit. No violence must be used,
and wherever rejected the mission must
withdraw TO seek another field. We have
abundant means, and therefore, We are
to purchase the very atmosphere, if any
demands he made upon us, rather than
violently oppose them. In fact we must
freely buy of all and every one, rather
than resent, and you know the sailors
commandment-'Obey ordersif it breaks
owrers'-is easier to keep them TO stand
upon ones rights. This is a principal
which have always attempted TO follow,
but freqently are SO extortionatc that
they exceed the value OF my property.

demonstrate whether progress can be

early yet to say much Of them; but most

the Spanish invaders we have proof in

written in 1851, where mention is made
that eighty leagues distant from their
camp there were Cdsns Grdndas. Gala
tin speaks of them and ascribes them TO
the Aztecs. Perhaps time and more ex-

Of these people, who have been swept
away from their grand cities, leaving
nothing hut the stony walls OF their

The visitor of the last Paris Exposition

chine of strange appearance, in the open
air, pointing sunward the axis of an inn
mense reflector, shaped like a turncated
cone, which gathered the rays TO linear
focus upon the boiler Of q working steam
engine, which is drove thus by direct
solar heat, Many not dissimilar solar
engines have been built in this country
and in India, the particular one of which
speak, due TO VI. Nouchot, having act
ully realized about one-horse power TO
ten feet square of surface. We are
startled when We make the computation
to find the immensitv oi the force thus
placed at our disposal, or To see what the
utilization of the waste places of the
earth would bring Us. Upon the limited
area of the Adirondack wilderness TO the

every allowance for loss, in many times

posed to partly rcconvcrt to an inland

hopelessly useless TO man, and yet on

poured in utter waste which could not be
made good by the consumption of all the
coal known TO underlie the soil of Great
Britain. Such machines as those of NJ.
Mouchot, owing TO the expense of con-
struction and attendance, cost moro than
an engine driven by coal, though the sun
supplies its power gratis; but it is simply,
