A PHYSICIAN KILLED BY THE CARs.-Dr.
Rhesa M. Norris, formerly of Hartford county,
was struck by the cars, near North Point cross
ing, Baltimore county, while returning to his
home at Orangeville in his buggy, on Thursday,
February Goth. at midnight. 1t is supposed he
fell asleep in his buggy and the horse turned
into the railroad tracks instead of keeping
straight ahead. The horse was instantly killed
and the buggy demolished. DIR. Norris was
thrown a considerable distance and was injHr-
ed Internally by the fall, as his body had no
cuts or bruises, except on the head and hands.
The train was stopped, and DR.. Norris taken
to President street station, where shortly after
wards he died. Early Friday morning the body
was taken to the Eastern Police Station, and a
jury of inquest was summoned.
The remains were brought to Hartford county
and inferred at Union Chapel on Monday.
The funeral services were conducted by Rev.
s. A. Hoblitzell the pastor of the family. The
pail bearers were Joseph w. Archer, George 7.
Archer, Charles Russell, B. F. Cronin, Silas w.
Hollingsworth and John Robb, of Baltimore.
Elias Beaumont was the undertaken. DR.. Nor
rs was universally beloved in the community
in which he resided, as was attested by the
large number of sympathizing friends who call
ed TO view the remains. To the poor he was es-
pecially kind, having rendered much profession
al service to this class gratuitously. His death
has cast gloom over the entire community.
DR.. Norris was in his 37th year and was son
of the late Cardiff Norris, who lived near Fall
ston. He was graduate of the College of Ply
scians and Surgeons, and removed to Orange
vile ten or twelve years ago, where he had ac-
CURED an extensive practice. His brothers are
Charles W. Norris of Chester, Pa. Frank C..
Norris, of Falston; John B Norris and William
H. Norris, of Baltimore. His sisters are Mrs.
George W. McComas, of Clayton Miss NJ. En-
ma Norris, of wilma, and Miss Libbie Norris.

years ago the catacombs were closed to the
public. In the crypt the bodies of the i'm
peria family of the empire were buried from
the fourteenth TO the seventeenth CENTURIES,
but at present, by one of those curious
freaks the origin of which nobody knows,
only the viscera of royalty are deposited
here while their hearts are buried in the
church of the Augustine friars. In the
vaults OF the Capuchin Church upward of
seventy members of the imperial family
have been inferred, the most interesting
monuments being those of Maria Theresa
and young Napoleon, commonly known as
the Dake of Reichstadt, whose short and

The imperial palace is strikingly inferior
to many other homes of royalty in Europe,
thus showing the simple tastes of the Aus
trian royal family; but the lack of archi-

abundance and beauty Of the art works
which have been collected within its walls.
The imperial library is under the same roof
as the palace, and is said to be one of the
rarest collections Of books and manuscripts
in the world. Precious as most of the docu-
ments are they are free 10 the public, and
any persons with proper recommendations

J.: Vienna does not lie Immediately on the

The old city bears about the same relation
10 the new that the city Of LOndo on does to
the metropolis. The old city was surrounded
by extensive Notifications. A wall of
gigantic proportions, strengthened at short
intervals by strong castles, protected the
city against It's enemies, and so effective
were these Notifications that they enabled
me population to Withstand several long
and severe sieges by the Turks. During one
OF NapoleOn'S visits in the early part of this
century he leveled the glaciS without the
wall and its forts and made it vast public
promenade The old wall and its earth
works, however, remained until the middle
OF this century, when the march OF public
Improvement demanded that these relies of
medleyaHsm be taken down. The wall was
removed the forts were demolished and the
space formerly occupied by item was de-
voted to public purposes The city proper,
therefore, is surrounded By a series Of the
finest bOuleyards TO be seen anywhere in
Europe. Wide drives, extensive avenues,
In some cases over $50 feet wide, occupy the
ground formerly devoted to the forts, and
IN the space given to the old Notifications
are now to be found the lungs the breathing
places Of the modern city. Here are the
grOupds, public parks, gardens aud other
places Of amusement, and on the whole the
Xiennese consider that they have prOfitted
immensely by the change. Without the
