Why as it goes, By spinning, weaving, knitting hose, By stitching shirts and coats for Jews, Erecting churches renting pews, And manufacturing boots and shoes, For thumps, and twists, and cuts, and hues, And heads and hearts, tongues lungs and thumbs ; Tho palace hero is an interesting building. A part of it is very old. My guide said it was the place of Charlemagne, but my guide look says" it was finished in 1610 by Maximilian I, and when the conqueror Gustavus Adophus, entered Munich, ho above all, admired this palace, and wished that he could remove it to Stockholm on wheels." I cannot give you a full description of it It is different from any palaee I have seen. The different parts of tho palace are also very different. Here are seen the old and the new in contrast, and the varying tastes of succesive ages. In the old part are some rooms very richly adorned after the style of tho times. In tho royal chamber are the most beautiful wrought curtains I have ever seen—crimson white, embroidered with gold ; said to have cost 800,000 florins, and 40 persons were steadily employed 15 years in working them. In this room the first Napoleon slept There is in one of tho rooms a chandelier of ivory, said to havo been carved by one of tho Kings. The rooms do not seem to be used now, but are thrown open at stated hours as a curiosity to strangers. From the old I passed to the r.ewer parts of the palace. Tho grand halls—dining-room, ball-room, throne-room, Ac., arc magnificently adorned with painting, sculpture, fresco, wood-work and stone-work. Here again I must omit descriptions. They would not give you an adequate idea, and I must sum up all in one sentence when I say that the wood-work of the floors exceeds anything that I have seen in Europe, in the rich variety of woods and the figures into which they aro wrought There were other portions of the palace which are not exhibited while tho royal family are present.rHE SUBSCRIBER IS NOWR.PEPARED to EXECUTE IK JOHN MACLABEN, Practical Brass Founder, L.

Every rock that now constitutes the fir foundation of the earth wu once dissolved its waters, lay as a mud at its bottom, or sand and gravel along its shore. The mate, ials of our houses were once deposited in i depth, and arc built on the floor of an ancic ocean bed ; and what are now sea beds, w be future continents. Everywhere the sea is still at work, encroac ing upon the shore—undermining the boldC cliffs on the coast by its own direct agency. And where it cannot reach itself, it sends emissaries to the very heart ol deserts and t very summits of mountain ranges, and t very innermost recess of continents, there produce constant dilapidation and change.

As some of my German friends in Wilkes- Barre came from Bavaria, they will like to know what I think of Munich, Us capitol.— I suppose in traveling, each one will have his preferences for places and people on tho route through Europe ; and I cannot claim to be so free from human imperfection as noi to have my prejudices. Nevertheless, I have tried as I humbly think, to judge fairly. I did not come to criticise, but to enjoy all I could. I see something to interest mo in every placo ; something new that I had not seen before.— If I have been disappointed in anything, I can truly say, I have in the general, and in almost every place, enjoyed moro than I anticipated. As I came directly from Venice to this place, I was led to draw comparisons unfavorable to tho former. Venice did not quite come up to my expectations, though there is very much to interest one in that queer old city ; and (hero are associations with the part which cnhance this interest. Venice is a place to visit for a few days and look at. Munich is a placo to live in and do business. 1 say the same if I were comparing Venice and Milan together in in the samo way. Venice has gone to decay. It looks old. Its glory has departed ; though it may revive somewhat again if it is ever relieved of Austrian rule, and Italy is restored to her integrity. In Munich as in Milan you gee tho old and new together. Here are buildings remaining of a forinor age, and old crooked streets; but there are new ones likewise— with flno wide streets and squares. The whole appearance is neat and clean.* In fact the old buildings look well and in good repair, for my guide informed mo that there was a law requiring the houses to be repainted every few years, which must always give tho city a fresh look. The buildings are mostly of brick or stone stuccoed and painted. The railway station is the best, next to Milan, that I have seen—very large and commodious, but not so imposing or so much adorned as the othor of of which I have spoken in my letter from Milan. There seems quite an enterprising spirit among the people. Beggars aro not met with. An ample poor tax provides for all tho really needy. Bavaria is a nice little independent Kingdom by itself having a littlo less than 8,- 000,000 population. It iB in the midst of fnoro powerful nations, having France on the We6t, Austria on the East and Persia on the North ; so that it would be soon disturbed by any commotion in Europe, and has to keep a large standing army. The soldiers are a body of fine looking young men, with a very neat uniform. The old king withdrew some years since, not feeling equal to the task in the times when the peace of Europe was disturbed. I heard of his living in quiet at Nice, during my visit there in tho winter. lie was then enjoy- 1 Ing pleasant social intercourse with the temporary residents which that fine climate drew 1 there. Tbo government then devolved upon 1 his son, a man greatly respected for his virtucs and prudence. He recently died, and is j 1 succeeded by his son—a young man 6carce j ' I have described so many churches that I shall only in a general way speak of those in Munich. They are a few fine ones, both old and new. They are plainer, and much less gaudily ornamented than those of Italy, though in sorao instances the ornamentation is quite elaborate. In one of the churches I noticed under an alter the skeleton of some Saint. It was profusely ornamented—indeed almost covered with gold and jewels. The heart was in a little case by the side. The bones I was told, were covered with leather. They were very white. The whole Was enclosed in glass. The dominant religion here is Roman Catholic j but tho government is very judicious and tolerant, and others have full liberty. I went into a large Protestant church, tho only one in tho city, but I was told that it was well filled several times a day ; and that measures were being taken ior tho building of another. I was sorry to see one old church turned into a warehouse and used as an additional custom house building. It might have been better occupied by those who need more room. Tho Protestants constitute above one- fifth of the population.

I had hoped on coming to Europe to enjoy some fine music. Nor have I been disappointed. As I do not visit the theatro or the opera, I have to seek other occasions, which now and then present themselves. I attended one good concert while in Florence, and beard Gome Italian music, of which I may have already spoken. Last evening I attended a concert here. It took two full hours, and was very fine. The shorter part of it was occupied by a quartette—two ladies and two gentlemen who sang several pieces; but tho far larger part was instrumental—the pieces being the '12ih Symphony" of Hadyn, and the "Columbus" of Abert There were about 70 performers. I counted 8 bass viols, but I cannot tell you the, number, of smaller instruments. It was a rich treat to me. I think I never heard so fine instrumental music without the organ. All this for about 50 cents I The largo hall was filled with a very respectable audience, and they seemed to be quite "appriciate" too, as one saying is. I was pleased with one habit here which I wish we could introduce in our country, and that was the early hour. The concert commenced at J past 6, and ended at i past 8, and I was back to my hotel before 0 o'clock. This seemed like keeping good hours.

Why as it goes, By spinning, weaving, knitting hose, By stitching shirts and coats for Jews, Erecting churches renting pews, And manufacturing boots and shoes, For thumps, and twists, and cuts, and hues, And heads and hearts, tongues lungs and thumbs ; Tho palace hero is an interesting building. A part of it is very old. My guide said it was the place of Charlemagne, but my guide look says" it was finished in 1610 by Maximilian I, and when the conqueror Gustavus Adophus, entered Munich, ho above all, admired this palace, and wished that he could remove it to Stockholm on wheels." I cannot give you a full description of it It is different from any palaee I have seen. The different parts of tho palace are also very different. Here are seen the old and the new in contrast, and the varying tastes of succesive ages. In the old part are some rooms very richly adorned after the style of tho times. In tho royal chamber are the most beautiful wrought curtains I have ever seen—crimson white, embroidered with gold ; said to have cost 800,000 florins, and 40 persons were steadily employed 15 years in working them. In this room the first Napoleon slept There is in one of tho rooms a chandelier of ivory, said to havo been carved by one of tho Kings. The rooms do not seem to be used now, but are thrown open at stated hours as a curiosity to strangers. From the old I passed to the r.ewer parts of the palace. Tho grand halls—dining-room, ball-room, throne-room, Ac., arc magnificently adorned with painting, sculpture, fresco, wood-work and stone-work. Here again I must omit descriptions. They would not give you an adequate idea, and I must sum up all in one sentence when I say that the wood-work of the floors exceeds anything that I have seen in Europe, in the rich variety of woods and the figures into which they aro wrought There were other portions of the palace which are not exhibited while tho royal family are present.rHE SUBSCRIBER IS NOWR.PEPARED to EXECUTE IK JOHN MACLABEN, Practical Brass Founder, L.

As some of my German friends in Wilkes- Barre came from Bavaria, they will like to know what I think of Munich, Us capitol.— I suppose in traveling, each one will have his preferences for places and people on tho route through Europe ; and I cannot claim to be so free from human imperfection as noi to have my prejudices. Nevertheless, I have tried as I humbly think, to judge fairly. I did not come to criticise, but to enjoy all I could. I see something to interest mo in every placo ; something new that I had not seen before.— If I have been disappointed in anything, I can truly say, I have in the general, and in almost every place, enjoyed moro than I anticipated. As I came directly from Venice to this place, I was led to draw comparisons unfavorable to tho former. Venice did not quite come up to my expectations, though there is very much to interest one in that queer old city ; and (hero are associations with the part which cnhance this interest. Venice is a place to visit for a few days and look at. Munich is a placo to live in and do business. 1 say the same if I were comparing Venice and Milan together in in the samo way. Venice has gone to decay. It looks old. Its glory has departed ; though it may revive somewhat again if it is ever relieved of Austrian rule, and Italy is restored to her integrity. In Munich as in Milan you gee tho old and new together. Here are buildings remaining of a forinor age, and old crooked streets; but there are new ones likewise— with flno wide streets and squares. The whole appearance is neat and clean.* In fact the old buildings look well and in good repair, for my guide informed mo that there was a law requiring the houses to be repainted every few years, which must always give tho city a fresh look. The buildings are mostly of brick or stone stuccoed and painted. The railway station is the best, next to Milan, that I have seen—very large and commodious, but not so imposing or so much adorned as the othor of of which I have spoken in my letter from Milan. There seems quite an enterprising spirit among the people. Beggars aro not met with. An ample poor tax provides for all tho really needy. Bavaria is a nice little independent Kingdom by itself having a littlo less than 8,- 000,000 population. It iB in the midst of fnoro powerful nations, having France on the We6t, Austria on the East and Persia on the North ; so that it would be soon disturbed by any commotion in Europe, and has to keep a large standing army. The soldiers are a body of fine looking young men, with a very neat uniform. The old king withdrew some years since, not feeling equal to the task in the times when the peace of Europe was disturbed. I heard of his living in quiet at Nice, during my visit there in tho winter. lie was then enjoy- 1 Ing pleasant social intercourse with the temporary residents which that fine climate drew 1 there. Tbo government then devolved upon 1 his son, a man greatly respected for his virtucs and prudence. He recently died, and is j 1 succeeded by his son—a young man 6carce j ' I have described so many churches that I shall only in a general way speak of those in Munich. They are a few fine ones, both old and new. They are plainer, and much less gaudily ornamented than those of Italy, though in sorao instances the ornamentation is quite elaborate. In one of the churches I noticed under an alter the skeleton of some Saint. It was profusely ornamented—indeed almost covered with gold and jewels. The heart was in a little case by the side. The bones I was told, were covered with leather. They were very white. The whole Was enclosed in glass. The dominant religion here is Roman Catholic j but tho government is very judicious and tolerant, and others have full liberty. I went into a large Protestant church, tho only one in tho city, but I was told that it was well filled several times a day ; and that measures were being taken ior tho building of another. I was sorry to see one old church turned into a warehouse and used as an additional custom house building. It might have been better occupied by those who need more room. Tho Protestants constitute above one- fifth of the population.

I attended one good concert while in Florence, and beard Gome Italian music, of which I may have already spoken. Last evening I attended a concert here. It took two full hours, and was very fine. The shorter part of it was occupied by a quartette—two ladies and two gentlemen who sang several pieces; but tho far larger part was instrumental—the pieces being the '12ih Symphony" of Hadyn, and the "Columbus" of Abert There were about 70 performers. I counted 8 bass viols, but I cannot tell you the, number, of smaller instruments. It was a rich treat to me. I think I never heard so fine instrumental music without the organ. All this for about 50 cents I The largo hall was filled with a very respectable audience, and they seemed to be quite "appriciate" too, as one saying is. I was pleased with one habit here which I wish we could introduce in our country, and that was the early hour. The concert commenced at J past 6, and ended at i past 8, and I was back to my hotel before 0 o'clock. This seemed like keeping good hours.
