It is said that Field-Marshal Radetaky has pointed out the necessity nf increasing the number of troop3 to 120,000 men,, double what he has usually under command. ... ," The Wallachian Government,' says a letter from Vienna, in the lVurzlury Gazette f has formed a planof the rail ways to be executed in thatvcpuntry. A line forty-seven leagues in length, is to connect Bucharest with Vcrtscvora by passing through Slatina, Crajova, and Czcneiz;t a second line is to con nect'Bucharest, Giurgevo and Varna; a third line is to go from Bucharest to Brcdail; and a fourth from Bucharest to the frontiers of the Bukowina. , ; PnoTOGKArnv uder Water. An Englishman,by the name of Thomnson. .recently took a. very good photograph of the rocks and weeds at the bottom of Weymouth Bay, in England. 'He placed his camera obscura : in a box, with plate glass front and moveable shutter, to be drawn up as soon as the camera had been sunk to the hottom. The apparatus was then letdown from a boat, carrying with it the collodion plate, prepared in the ordinary way. Vhcn at the bottom, the shutter of the box was raised, and the plate exposed for a period of ten minutes, with a suc- . ccssful rcpult. It is believed that this method will prove a ready and expen sive means of arriving at a knowledge of the condition of piers, bridges, piles, structures and rocks under water.
