From this platform the grotfnd fi e- fc’v a g- title slope to the top of a beautiful ridge wh'cb ext- nds nearly across the encl sure from Piast to West. Through this ri <Joe the Railroad makes a cut twenty feet deep, which is spanned by a substantial bridge fi ;y feet wide, w-ith a double earring-* drive and foot-walks upon either side Coming from the main county road, across this bridge, we opprnech the Grand Entrance, consisting of a splendid arched gateway, flanked upon either s'de by handsome or namental towers. In front of tne gate, be tween it and the bridge, is a hr -ad area one hundred and fifty by two hundred feet, formed by throwing hack the fence, which at this point is twelve feet high and sur mounted by a beautiful cornice in a semi circular form, making a kind of vestibule to the entrance. In the center of this there will be an ornamental plat fifty feet in diameter, around w‘iieh winds the carriage road. Upon either side, next, to the f nee, will be broad foot-walks, exren iing around past the ticket offices (of which there will he several upon each sid--) to the entrance gate Through fie gateway will he a broad carriage way, and also foot-walks f>r pe destrians Over the central arch will ap* pear, in handsome let'ers. the words ‘‘Ogle th >rpe Park,” and under this the w rd ‘ Entrance.” Upon one of the towers wil he paint'd. “Sc em-e »> and Art upon the other, “Agrieu tu-e ” Teams will he al* 1 «wed only to p iss in at this gate-way, an exit gate being r r vid-'d at another part of the enclosure. Upon the right of the gate way will be a neat gothic cottage for the care-keeper, and opposite to this a build ing, with corresponds g front, intended ex c usivelv so? the press, in which there will tie a bran -'h Telegraph afid Post Office On the left of the entrance, and near the front, are the offices of the Secretary and Treasu rer—each twenty-five by forty feet—so sit uated as to he accessible to persons b >th within and without the grounds. A little further on are the offices of the President and Executive committee. To the right of the entrance begins the be.intUul carriage drive, which passes entirely ground the enclosure, wind rig through hady grove-, around the hi Is. crossing bridges, skirting small lakes—of which thore are three in the Park—and making it a1 re idv a most delightful riding ground tor the ib uiz-ns of Atlanta, and one which will ass ird great pleasure to persons vis ting the Fair in vehicles. Let us pass slowly along this way and observe the various points of interest within the enclosure. Passing from the r ght of the entrance, along the ridge hHfj, re alluded to, we Come first tO “ A I'DIENCE Hall ” a fine building. 50 feet by 2iki, two stones high, with a neat ventilating t >wer The upper st ry is designed for the audi e ice hall whence the name of the budding —in which there is a stage for speakers, and gailery f r band &e.

Descending the western slope of ot the ridge to level grounds, we strike the long line of stalls for horses, c&t* tie, sheep, &e These extend almost round three sides of the enclosure, and are large and comfortable, equal iu fact to a first- stable. Here the road swings round in front of these stalls, turns the corner, ana then making a beautiful curve, comes near the western end of the Race-track ana the Amphitheatre. The track is a half mile long, and in cot.sequence of the tin- of the ground, required in its construction some heavy grading., costing, we are informed, over §20,000. It is oval in shstp>, with rather short curves or turns at the ends, but with unusually long and straignt “back and home stretches,” which we are assured will more than g.).npen?at9 for the shortness of the turns The amphi tbr 4re is on the side opposite the Judges’ stand, and is carable of seating between four and fire th usand people. In addition to this, the slope of the ridge before refer red to affords fine standing room to rntny thousands more, to whom every part of the track will fie plainly visible. Indeed, the every obstacles which at first seemed t • ren der success more than doubtful, have been seized upon, and in the arrangement of the track and grounds turned with consummate skill til the highest possible advantage. Gullies have been filled and changed to fine roads. Hills have been terraced arid sloped so as to f- fra ah amphitheatre. Morasses have been drained and turned info beauti ful lakes, and the Gr -unde so changed £nd beautified that they ha\e lost their identify. Within this curve, at the end of the race track, it is proposed to erect a “skating r-nk” for ‘‘patent roller skates,” wh:eh will he one of the largest in the country. Turning again, the r md passes near the line ot sialls, over a slight hill, down across a bridge, and around the hank of the larg est of t e throe lakes In these several pretty artificial it lands have been made around the bases of some large pine trees, for the and >uhle purpose of preserving the trees and adding beauty to the lakes In the largest lake there will he pleasure boats f<r the oung people, and probably fish. From this point the drive sweeps up the S-uth side, passing the long line of hofse sralirf on the right, leaving two small lakes oo the left. Turning the south-east corner around an • xperime.ital cotton p itch of one acre, (which is lo king finely), it comes down near the ielt railroad plutt rm, on tlie south end ot which is located the “power hall” or “machine depot.” This building ie very much like “Audience Hall,” with an engine and boiler house attached In it there will be a line of shutting 100 feet long, to which all kinds of machinery for exhibition will be atached.

W 1) O'X'K Sp.h ry PARIS—I io iMro-a L\Uci AS A sTkagetiu i* jint—ii jW t j reach tt —its strength. A military view of the security of the Fieoeh Capital is summarized in the fol lowing statement complied from a French j turnal, wfliich endeaYofis to tranquilize the public mmd on that point: There are four routes in a military point of view, which an invading army might adopt in a vancing from Germ ny upon Paris: 1 By crossing the French frontier between Simsbourg and Luxemburg, and then advancing in a uirect line on Palis. 2 By crossing the Swiss territory, situated below Strasburg, and marching by the val leys of the Seine uud Maine on the Capital 3. By a movement lrom the north, pas-ing the fortress Meiz and reaching Paris by way of the valleys of the Stone and Marne 4. By advancing through Belg’an soil, in a direct southern line the ugh the valleys of the Oise and Aisne on Piris. The first course ie regarded as a military infiposubiliiy, France being protected on itie east by the great natural defenses of the Vosges mountains, the M iselle river, the Ardendes mountains, arid the river Meuae. huported by many fortified places, among which is the stronghold of Metz Dism su ing, then, any speculations which this route may suggest, we arrive at the second line of advance toward the French Capital, if in this case the Prussians were to v oiate the neutrality of Switzerland and attempt to advance upon Paris from the sou beast, they would find themselves confronted by the fortress of Lyons, which has been strengthened and rendered very secure since the period of the fir-t Empire. Before arriving at that point the invading-f >rces wou and have to capture either* Belfont or Langres, both of which occupy commanding pos-nions on the ground through which an army advancing from Swiiz :r!and should pass. The third r >tlte is the most seas b’e. ar and consists, io military nhr- se of turning the torue-ses on the northeast frontier, includ ing Metz, and then by continu'd successes arriving on tie river Mari e, from whence there is no formidable obstacle to an ad vance toward the immediate neighborho >d of the capital. But an in- a i g lorce c uld not, on account of Meiz uni Btrasburg. wisely adopt this cour-e. r l’lie French army, if defeated, ci mid take refuge in Metz and thence hnrrasS the rear of the invader, who wouid be open to similar attacks from Strasburg and places of less importance. The fourh route hy way of Belgium, is secured hy defenses w hich the reverses of 1814 proved more imperatively neoessirv. The French calculated that even if an enemy sh uld arrive in the vicinity of Paris her forntieati >ns are practically impregna ble. Thirty years ago, under the adminis tration of M Thiers, these defenses were completed, the pr-dect being regarded with special favor by L mis Phiflippe. whe took an enthus astic inierest in fortifications Another resource is found in the population of Paris, now numbering 2,000,000, who, by acti g in concert with lorces ->perating in the rear of the invaders, might over wneim them Such was the hope of Napo le >n 1., hot in the altered circumstances of ins time it proved impraciicable. The following is one of these beautiful ideas of Victor Hugo. Speaking of the death of Kesler, he says : A-leep'?—No I I take back that word. Death des not sleep. Death lives! Death is" a’ splendid realization. Death toircaes man ii. two Ways, she freezes, then revives him. Her breath indeed, extinguishes, but resumes.

In a recent test f >r rapidity of firing, the Cha&sepnt rifle gave £0 r.-unds in 1 minute and 42 seconds. The bullet of the Chaise pot weighs but 380 graius. The King of Wurteinburg is quoted as saying that Germany would bs ruined by the war for twenty years, and immigration to America will swell to enormous propor tions. It is stated in Wusbingtnn, on good authority, that some private parties in New York are negotiating for the purchase of two Ironclads from our government, for $759.0 0 each, for Prussia. Prussia has imperitively demanded of England that sh.pm«*uts of coal to France shall cease or the pre ence of neutrality he aband >ne 1 The Prussians Envoy insists on criuianal proo**. dings againtft British pilots s rving French war vessels. As an instance < f the delayp attending the movement T tfoops, it is estimated that the French Eastern Railroad Company w u and require ten days to move a force of 40,000 men, wii i horses, ammunition, etc , from Chalons to the front er, even if a train Could be dispatched every hour. The Crimean war only cost tho British Government $400,000,000, gold, and now the English people want to * see” that amount and go it a few hundred millions better in a war with France, Verily, the legacy of Waterloo is a bitter oue, as well for victor as for vanquished. The New York German Patriotic Asso ciation has resolved to send over to Germany young physicians who speuk the German language, to assist in the care of the sick and wounded, knowing, from official sources, that they will be veiy acceptable to the Prussian Government. France has one hundred and nineteen fortresses, of which eight are of the first rank: Paris, Lyons, Strasbourg, Metx, Lille, Toulon, Brest and Cherbourg. The fortifications of Paris are staled to have cost $4 >.000.0 )0, and up to 1868 there had be-n expended on Cherbourg $3J,000,000. Napoleon Has restored the very torches of popular enthusiam in France—the “Marseillaise” hymn and the revolutionary opera of ‘ Massaniello”—-and if Germany succeeds in overcoming Napoleon, which is its declared object, it will still have to fight France. The latest invention sos warlike purposes is said to be the adoption of Bt'*ara locomo* tives for the transportation of heavy artil lery on common roads. This has been practically tried in England and Prussia, and seems to have given groat satisfaction. How far this invention will be made adap table in the present war remains to bo seen. France lost 80,000 men during the Cri mean struggle ; the Italian campaigns car ried off 60,000 more of Napoleon’s braves; while 65,000 Frenchmen were sacrificed in the Chinese and Mexican wars. The open ing war is assutnmlng such mammoth pro portions that Napoleon’s losses now promise to exceed all these figures aggregated. The Prussian army is weighed down by a hideous aristocracy of offictrs. The real Generals are not, according to appearances, put in command. A parcel of Princes ure nominally at the head of the several crops. The great Moltke has always a stupid Prince or two at his back, just as the great Bismarck has been compelled to hear on his broad shoulders the ponderous aud vain old King, who goes along with his army aud thinks he commands it. Wak Maps.— Speaking of “war maps,” so-called, which many newspapers are now printing, and which appear to be Chinese puzzles, a contemporary says: “They are very easily manufactured. A pistol is first charged wi;h powder, then a small bottle of ink placed on this charge, and fired against a piece of boxwood ; the block is then handed to the artist, who chips away all the surface not covered with ink—pro ducing a first-class newspaper war-map. The “Mitrailleous” of tho French army, wbie.i was so destructive to the Prussians in the late battle, a New Haven paper says, is the Gatling gun invented in Hartford ten years ago. It is a series of rifle barrels, mounted on a pair of wheels, and, at the turning of a crank, “fixed ammunition” passes along in a “slide,” to the breech, when it instantly explodes. The French government has helped itself to this inven tion without auy compensation to the inventor. The Times ascribes the French disaster to the Emperor’s obstinacy in refusing s und military advice, and to his illness. The Tunes says parties in France will make the Emperor pay the penalty of ill success. 11 s name is already ignored iu acts by which the regency seeks to rally the people. Thinge arrange themffelv'ec at ii he w’os not expected to resume his power, as if testing how he may be dispensed wi'h altogether. The only question is who shall first utter the word “abdication.” The New York Tunes has this para graph : “Among our European mail news will he found a s atement from a French s >urce, charging Pruss a with reviving the use of that m »st barbarous of ail known missile —the explosive ball. It may be remem bered that at the convention held last year at St. Petersburg, for the purpose of taking measures to alleviate the horrors <t war, the governm nts of both France and Prus sia gave t'eir adhesion to a resolution whereby the use of explosive balls was ex nre'Si.y di.-allowed in wa-fare. But it appears that the Grand Duchy of Baden refused to sign this article of the Conven tion, aod is soldiers being now in the field with Prussia, and in pos-tssion of tDe mis si s in qu»*t>ti m, France has been com; elled to resort, in her turu, t > ths>r m inufacture, and’ the ghast y catalogue of slaughter is, therefore, in a fair way to be largely in creased. This statement is also repeated by the correspondent of the In<Jei>endent Beige, and Prussia certainly owefe it to the civilized world to see that an invention so purely diabolical as the explosive ball should not, by any fault o! hers, be brought to bw 11 the horrors of war.
