The passages, run- ning generally at right angles, cross and intersect each other inti such a manner as to render it extremely difficult to find the waygs Nie out. A sworn guide may be engaged at the Hotel Bonn, fee,s 5 fr. The walk.through the quarry takes from 1 to 2 hrs.; its roof is supported by innumeralle massive blocks left by the excazs: yators for this purpose; the rock consists of a soft yellowish kindds of stone resembling chalk and abounding in fossil remains prin-i. cipally of marine animals, the most curious being a remarkablalc species of lizard more than 20 ft. long. The stone is badly adap-y ted for building, but when reduced to powder makes an excellenttr manure; the quarries are very dry but remarkably cold.
