They all agree that it was magnld
cent sight. The equipages were very
handsome, troops superb, the cathedral
admirably arranged, and gorgeously
decorated with velvet, silk, and en-
broidery, and illuminated with count
less lustres, The emperor looked i'll at
ease in uniform so tight that he could
hardly moye-his face flushed, and
never looking from under his eyes but
with that peculiar stealthy glance he
has, with his eyes half shut. The emf
press was well dressed in gown of
white velours epingle, with jacket
trimmed with large diamonds, a cestus
of the same round her waist, and a
magnificent necklace in front-a coro-
net of diamonds on her head, with a
veil. Delane thought her manner COM
posed and dignified, and great contrast
in every way, to that of the emperor
but she was dreadfully pale. After
their return from Notre Dame, the en-
perez presented her on the two balconies
of the Tuileries, facing the Carrousel
and the garden, to the assembled null
titude, she having previously changed
her dress.
Soon after this, six or seven travel
ing carriages, with four horses each,
with Positions equipped in the old
French style, with ribbons in their hats
and long-thonged whips, drove into the
court, and Lady Essex says the first
hearty cheer was for them. Delane
told me they were cayitally got up, and
had very good effect, but it is curious
that when they drove up to the Champs
Elysees, on their way to st. Cloud,
amidst a vast crowd of people not one
person took off his hat, or paid any at
tention whatever to the cOrtege, except
himself and his companion and this
act of courtesy seemed to excite the at
tention of the by ISLANDERS more than
the imperial pair h.. Norman (McDon-
ald) confirms all Deiane told me of the
attitude of the people, curiosity being
the only strong feeling shown. AS to
the future, he think much will depend
upon the Empress herself. If she has
good sense and good feeling, and chooses
TO exert her influence over him, which
at this moment is paramount, so as to
clear his court of the robbers and the
disreputables who surround him, she
may make a very strong position for
herself The French will like to see a
pretty Empress galloping at the head of
a regiment, but any more scandal, or
addition to the disrepute in which the
encourage is held, would be fatal.

Goals and window Glass Used by Romans

1t Is now well ascer;ained that the
Romans IN Britain, at least, mede use
of mineral coal. The clnders have been
found in some cases In the fireplaces OF
Roman villas; and IN several places in
Northumberland, where the coal beds
came to or near the surface, the Roman
workings have been traced to very
considerable extent. On the northern
coast of Wales, where the coal beds also
cropped out, there can be little doubt from
appearances that the Romans worked coal
mines extensively. In Britain, and in the
colder climates generally, the Romans
appear always to have warmed their houses
with hot air, and never with tireplaces in
the rooms, as at present. The floors OF
the rooms were formed OF strong cement,
resting on numerous short pillars, and
from the narrow subterranean apartment
thus formed, termed the hypocaust, nu-
merous hue-tlles were run up the lnterya,
surfaces of the walls of the house.
FIre-places were made at the side of the
hypOcaust externally, for the purpose Of
heating the air within, which rose up the
pipes OF the tlue tiles. Window glass was,
no doubt, used In tine Roman villas, for in
excavating the remains Of these buildings
numerous pieces OF glass are found on the
floor at the tCot Of the wall where there
had evidently been windows above. This
glass resembles in quality and thickness
our common window glass.

A erowi at the Drinking Fountain.
TO nc Editor Of TIE Elenln0 Crttlc.

WASHINGTON, ID. O., July z, 1881,
There Is one tautalizlng and aggrayating
nuisance in Washington. That Is the drinking
fountain at the corner OF Pennsylvania avenue
and Seventh street. II Is distressing to SEQ
women and children who, after being out this
hot weather have become very thirsty, at.
tempt TO drink at that fountain. After becom-
Ing bespattered with water and mud, they
more thirsty than before, because OF tue dis.
appointment.
The fountain affords splendid spattering
that purpose; nor do men and boys need It for
drinking purposes, for there are numerous
places where MeV can lind water.
II the projectors and designers OF that foun.
tain could never quench their thirst only as
they drank thereat, itwould undoubtedly soon
be so changed as 10 answer the ends OF a
drinking fountain. OBSERVER.
