The last accident occurred at the n more popular festival in Serampore. when people were sacrificed under the win through their own carelessness, or that ol police. ?S it appeared ou aa ouicial int esl tion. The crowd at Serampore was unusi small on this occasiua, save on the last i when the cars returned to the temples. -It is a curious fact that the late lame: Pr?vost Paradol should have been a chiel laborateur in a romaneo whose catastro prefigured his own sad destiuy. The s was published some years ago In the R? des Deux Mondes, and the concluding si was the suicide of Hie hero by a pistol bulle his being appointed French Amba3sadoi Russia. It is an interesting psychologies quiry whether this idea, lurking in M. P dol\s brain, and rising into intensity at a ment of aberration, did not occasion his destruction. There are numerous instai on record of homicides committed under s lar circumstances, but fewer, we believe suicides. We may add that the story we r to was not acknowledged by M. Parade was, however, traced to him by means certain quotation from his favorite author, cretius, in the context, and he never al ward denied the principal authorship of tale._ Is the World Growing Wiser ! Sixty years ago it was the universal cr that the history of the world, like the hist of a nation, is a record of the advance man from the first dawn of knowledge, b rather unsteady progression, to modern p! ' osophy and arts and sciences, and that examination of any considerable period time is sure to show us mankind more ?tructed and more capable at the end o than at the beginning. Even to-day, c other belief may be counted heretical. I what are we to think when the antiqua groping in the dust of five thousand ye: ago for some rude specimens of the days Magog and Mizraim, breaks his sbin3 agaii an article s - per?ect that it equals, if it d( not excel, e supreme stretch of mod? ability ? How shall we support the theo ? if, before Noah was cold in his grave, his < scondants ? ere adepts in construction a in the fine arts, aud their achieveinei were, for maguitude, such as we never : tempt to emulate ? It is not intended auswer these questions here. Our object rather to recapitulate some of the thin which one very old nation knew in eai days. This is the subject of a paper "Abo What the O J Egyptiaus Knew," in the A gust number of Blackwood. Every one us who knows anything ut all has a nret correct implicit knowledge of Egypt, cr. talk of the Pharaohs aud Sesostris, of ti pyramids, the sphinx, the obelisks. Bi when it cotne3 to measuring, or defining, tl: antiquity, the kuowledge and the power, tl utterance is not so prompt. It is good, thet to talk over the thugs which have beeu e? tablished regarding ancient Egypt and bc character, avoiding tbe discussions and coi troversies which Time will probably detei mine. No trace of the rude, savage Egypt has yt beeu discovered. Our deepest research' show her to us as only the mother of a mos accomplished race. How they came by the knowledge ls a matter of speculation-tht they possessed it is a matter of fact. TL dyke by which Menes diverted the stream < the Nile, in the first historical reign, wa doubtless showu to Abraham, ia whose da the diversiou of the river was as old a stor as the accouut of Joan of Arc, or Jack Cad? is to us. Aud iii the reign of Meris wa formed un artificial lake four hundred an fifty miles in circumference and three bun dred feet in depth. It was owing to ol Meris that ouce dry Egypt had corn enougl to spare when Syria aud Arabia fainted iron lack of sustenance. The mass of masonry in the pyramid wou'd weigh (>3V',000 tons, und thc joint between the casing stoues are not wide thau the thickness of silver paper. Obelisk; ninety and statues forty feet high, eacl fashioned out of one stone, were not uncom mon things. The biock3 were clean siiee? separated from the ndtive rock, not bj wi'dgcs, by chiselling and sawing. The ole Egyptiaus knew better. A small groove was cut, say one hundred feet long, and in this a number of dry wooden wedges wert inserted; then water was poured into the groove, and the wedges, expanding simulta? neously, broke away the huge fragment as neatly as a strip of glass is taken off by a diamond. And these stones were wrought and set with consummate skill. The famous Labyriuth had 3000 chambers, and Herodo? tus found the upper chambers "to excel all "other human productions." The ground covered by the Temple of Karnac is nearlv square, and the sides measured about one thousand eight hundred English feet. Courts, pillars, monolithic figures, sculptures, rows of sphinxes, are massed in such profusion, that the sight is too much for modern com? prehension. In oue of its hails the Cathe? dral of Notre Dame might stand and not touch its walls. The whole valley and delta of the Nile was covered with temples, palaces, toombs, pyramids and pillars. These works were executed before the Exodus of Israel ; some of them before the visit of Abraham. The Egyptians were adepts in paper-mak? ing. Papyrus rolls, written in thc days of the early Pharaohs, are yet in existence. They had a passion for writing, and every surface that would receive hieroglyphics was covered with inscriptions. We did not know, till fifty years ago. that papyri, as weil as rocks, cuiiius, tombs and walls, had any tale to tell. Tue armies of Sesostris had war chariots of a magnificent construction. Heavy arm? ed warriors wore coats of mail. The sol? diers used the bow, darts and slings, jave? lins, spears and pikes. Scaling ladders and battering-rams were well understood. While Greece was at his horn book. Egypt waa al? ready at her meridian: in wisdom, pre-emi? nent; ii. works, a giant. Land surveying was well understood. The Egyptians were observant astronomers, and the rotundity of the earth, the 3un's place in ?the solar system, the obliquity of the eclip? tic, the starry composition of thc Milky Way, aud the borrowed light of the moon, are thought by Wilkinson to have been no secrets io th ?m. They knew the true U ugth of the year. Records were made every day ai.tiiB .fading and setting 01 the stars. The tru'? meridian had been ascertained before tji?j.'fi'rjt 'pyramid was built. They had the dc?iir?il and duodecimal modes of arithme tical calculation from the earliest times, and understood the philosophy of the mechani? cal power3. After cort:, flax was th? chief crop, and linen was made so fine that each single thread of a garment sent to Lindus. by King Amasis. (600 years B. C.. ) was com? posed of 365 minor threads twisted together. Not only was linen spun, but it wa3 dyed and richiy embroidered from the very earliest times. Cutting, polishing and setting pre? cious stone3 was done in excelleut style by Egyptian lapidaries. They mined successful? ly, and could temper steel. Mummification was an art. Sight-seers maj-, to-day. ex? amine tue corpses of men and women over whom thousands of years have rolled with? out bringing them to corruption, or depriv? ing them of their human form. The pro? cesses of embalming occupied three months. And the swathing of the embalmed form was so artistically executed that professional bandagers of the present day are lost in ad? miration of its excellence. The strips of j linen have been lound extending to 1000 yards in length. Nor was the successful pickling of ancestors a chance discovery. The word J "chemistry" comes from chemi. and chemi I means Egypt; the science was rightly named after the country. The Egyptians never took kindly to "the "briny," but when they did take to the ocean, they did it to some purpose. A fleet fitted out by ?eco II was absent two years, and did verily doable the Cari? o' Good Hope. Glass they manufactured in all its varieties. They understood the laws oMiar mony, and played the lyre, harp, flute, and guitar, besides trumpet, drum and cym? bal The Spanish castanet had its origin in Egypt. Medicine wa3 assiduously stud? ied. There were dentists and oculists, a doctor for digestion, . a physician for the brain. Every practitioner kept to bis own branch. Of the uris and sciences, which the Egyptians possessed in common with other ancient peoples, it i3 not necessary to speak here. They could do all that their neigh? bors did, and a very great deal more that no other nation on the earth could then ac? complish-nay, they did some works which have never been equalled in either ancient or modern times. Great and splendid a3 are the things which we know about oldest Egypt, she is made a thousand times more sublime by our uncertainty as to the limits of her accom? plishments. Under the soi! are hid away thousands of relics which may astonish the world for agesto come, and change contin? ually ita conception of what Egypt was. Re? search proves the objects of it much older than we thought them to be; something thought to be wholly modern is proved to be a repetiton of things Egyptian, and other things, known to have boo:: Egyptian? are carried back more and more towards the very beginning of things. She shakes our most rooted ideas concerning thc- world's history. There is a spell over her still. The cloud which covered Egypt began to break at the beginning of this century. And when life and vigor and civilization shall return, what great results may he expected to accompany them ? As she looks back with pride and glory at what she was, the hope of what she may again be is lively with? in her. and sae can feel a trust in herself. Her reviving ambition will feed upon the mighty deeds of old, and her sons will gain streugth from the knowledge of the glorious dead. When this spirit shall come upon Egypt, then, perhaps, the world will truly under3tand what the wisdom of tue Egyp? tians wa3. For him who believes thal his puny cflorts are tending to the establishment of a golden age. aud leading the human race to per? fection, there can be no corrective more etfectua! than the study of ancient Egypt. From thence he may loam the truth that human knowledge and human wisdom can? not perpetuate themselves. Tho glory of Egypt came to naught. Progress was ar? rested during a lar^c span of the world's ex? istence. And when we sam up what we have gained and lost, the amount of ad? vancement since tiie days of Moses is very little, and that little due to a r?naissance in the last two or three "entunes. We have plenty of legitimate work to do. We are commissioned to subdue tiie earth, not to determine its future. The earth U not ours ; nevertheless, wo have u great field for labor. Let us benefit, if we may. our own generation and that which is to follow, trusting to Providence to determine, whether any part of our work shall survive, whether it shall perish utterly, or whether it shall lie for millenniums under a cloud and ?ive again hereafter to a race such as it hus uot enter? ed into our hearts to conceive. ?ot Salt.

There ls hardly a elty or town of any note In tua country into which they have not found their way. The reason of this widespread popularity and dally increasing demand ls owing entirely to their peculiar excellence and Intrinsic worth.
