■Tds Toweb op Babel.—The following account of the tower of Babel ia from Sir Robert K; Toner’s Travels in Western Asia, between : .the Tears 1817, and 1330, as quoted by professor .: SiHunan in the list number of his Journal ot t Science, - j This it an pile of ruins; at its base it measures 8,082feet (in circuit,] —width 450 feel; U present* two stages of hille: the first about CO foet-high, cloven into a deep ravine by the rain, , . and‘intersected by the furrow of a ir e . To the bats of the second ascent is about f C ct from t .the.bottom of the entire pile, and f r0 m the base •"of this ruin to the lop 85 feet. O n t i, 0 western side, the entire mass rises at onco ( rom the ilaiti in one stupendous though irregii| ar pyramidical hill, broken in the slopes of its sweepi!)* 7 acclivi- . ties by time and violence. The South and North . fronts are particularly abruptjtowards tho point of the brick rufit; on the North side there are large piles of ruins of fine and solid brick work, L projecting from among immense masses of rubbish at the base; tho fine bricks were evidently parlof tho extreme summit, it is a solid mass 28 feet broad, made of the mostj beautiful brick masonry, and presenting the apparent angle of some structure originally of a square shape, the remains of which stand on the east to the height of 35 ftot and to tho south 22 feet. It is rent from tbb top to nearly halV way down, the romiiis of the masonry arc furnace burnt bricks; they are united by a calcareous cement about a qusrttr of ait'inch in thickness, having in It a layer *E straws, and so bard tliarit could not be etparatad, The- base of the structure was not ■ altersd, but the piles of fine brick-thrown down Vera vitrified with the various colors, and they gave the ringing sound belonging to the vitrification of glass in the manufactories; the lines of cement ore visible and distinct and arc vitrified. The consuming power* appears to .have acted from above, and that scattered ruins fell from o higher point thin the summit of the present standing fragment. The hen of the firs which produced such amo- , jinw effects must have burned with the force ol thestrongeiI furnace, and from the general appearance of the cleft in .the wall, and these vitrified masses, 1 should bo inclined,says the author, to attribute the catastrophe to lightning from heaven. Ruins by the exposition of any combustible matter, would havo exhibited very different appearances. The entire surface ofthe structure appears to have been faced with fine trick. .

The Chinese opium smoker, on whoso counted nance the Jove of opium is written, bccomes.decropit in early life* bis skin appears'like parchment, and if but :J5 years old,-looks full twice that age, and.all the results of gum-eating become bis lot. The Chinese authorities, who have repeatedly forbidden the use of this poison, describe those once accustomed to it as being 1 ‘totally unable to Jive without tt, they cannot be prevail efi upon by any means to relinquish it; their faces become sharp as sparrows, and their liOads sunk between their shoulders; the poison falls Into their innermost vitait, physic cancoV cure them,] pud repentance comes too late,” -
