-W. II. Hurlbut writeslrom Kome to the Woria: That the Pope, at bis age, and his cares, ( and in Buch weatbcras tbis, should bo ively, certainiy speaks well for bis contitution. He is quito merry, I am told, also with the Irish bishops. These proates, as the custom is, brought with tbem and preseuted to the Holy Father tbeir aoveral secretarios. Most of the iittor, it appeara, are tall anl perdonable irieats, stalwart of framu :uid fresh of soul ; and the Pope, after thrae or four of them had made their obeisances, turned with a laugb to Cardinul Cullcn, aud' said : "I5ut yeur priests are uot priests, they are grenadiers !" and catching sigbt at the moment of the youuger M adíalo a very Siul amone his Broïh'ren - he added : "Grenadiers, I say, and there ootnea tbo captain of the grenadiers!" ■ ii Ml ■ '■ The cotton fnctory noar Columbus, Georgia, claims to owu the finest water power on tbis contiriont, as n considerable river bns a perpetual fall within 4 inile of iLi'j li et, and the current runa through'a natural tail way, with rock walls, 20 fcet wide and 15 feec deop ai low water. The power, it ia eetimated, will run 1,000,000 ipindles. The original model of a teleprnphio battery filed by Prof. Morse, wheo ho pot hia patent, bas beüii unearthed fiom a lot of old rubbish iu tho cellar of the Patent Office, whre it bas bon lyinK for yearg. Tho elomsineeB o the fignal key, as compared with tho one of tlic present dny, is ridiculoua. It is nearl two feet long, nnd hs a large himp' of lead at the end furthest froin the hand, to throw the key up acd break the ei:cuit.
