I feel my o'ertasked sight begin to fail
With vainly searching for a phantom sail;
Entombed within my crystal wall of sea,
No tender human footstep quickens me:
No sweet and homely human forms appear,

The TVu They De) It.
Ton see these elegantly-dressed, these slim
young men, with womanly complexions, prim-rote-colored
gloves as flawless as the flower
they are named after, and wearing rings and
carrying watches whieh you, who receive a much
larger salary to your certain knowledge, cannot
afford to buy. How do they do it ? Here is one
who is dressed in the very highest style. No
body but a Broadway tailor could have pre
sented such a pattern and achieved such a fit.
These clothes are not merely loud pretence
they are genuine elegance; and the young fellow
looks as much like a gentleman in them as he
could In anything. They are most probably paid
for, too, for the metropolitan tailor is not apt to
let young men he knows nothing of have clothes
tin trust. How is this thing accomplished ? To
my certain knowledge the young fellow is a
waiter in a restaurant. Many is the time he
himself has waited upon me, wearing a white
apron and a silver badge. Now he is elegantly
unaware of my proximity, and looks over me
and beyond. . When I next see him he will be
receiving a twenty-five-cent piece from some
munificent customer. How, in the course of a
year's savings, he contrives to save sufficient
money to buy so costly a suit as that he wears
remains a mystery, but he does do it, and, taking
all things into consideration, does not ill
become them. Sometimes the mystery is not
quite so unfathomable. It was not with one
Mr. Bodd, who lived in one of the suburbs of
this city. His salary amounted to the princely
sum of 15 per week; his style of living cor
responded to an income of four times that
amount. He was fond of billiards, the theatre,
jcuiied drinks, and ' mixed companies all of
which may bfl classed as economical means of
amusement for poor young men. Mr. Bodd's
economy in that direction was so great that he
spent upon them all the money which should
have been put to better uses, and more too.
One of his duties was to pay men off at certain
locomotive works; so Mr. Bodd made out an
ingenious pay-roll, which included the names
of many supposititious workmen who had no
existence at all. However, Mi. Bodd drew from
the cashier sufficient money to pay all the men
named in his list, and pocketed what remained
after paying all the laborers really engaged.
Tbe amount thus conveyed to his use was quite
considerable in the course of a year. Finally,
his accounts getting complicated, as they some
times will even when money is not misapplied,
Mr. Bodd recently took passage in a Hamburg
steuracr for the sake of putting the ocean be
tween him and his nefariousncss. How strange
It is that young men living greatly beyond their
incomes can't see that the hand of detection is
on them 1
Picturesque Pedeetiianl.ni.
Mr. Edward Fayson Weston, in a certain
sense, understands stage effect almost as well as
Mr. Fechter does. It is not for nothing that he
wears a black velvet suit, leather leggings, and
a white hat, and carries a light little riding whip.
He understands the art of making-up. The
ensemble is picturesque and telling and has a
certain desirable effect upon the observer.
Thanks to these and similar pains, he is almost
as much a favorite with the women as the lead'
ing juvenile at a theatre or the unmarried cler
gyman of a fashionable church. Fink and per
fumed notes and feminine photographs reach
him doily, and during his performance he has
been more than ordinarily dosed In this particu
lar, but has not had time either to read the one
or to look at the other. For my part, I don't
wonder at the women liking him, for young men
of fine physique and good brains are not often
found in this city, and in these respects Weston
deserves more popularity than the actor or the
minister. His pedestrian feats and fall ares do
good, not in the mere winning or losing of
-wagers, but in the stir they give the legs of a
. too listless community. Every man feels under
the same obligation to put bis best foot forward
that he does in time of drill and drafting, and
the calves of the community are pricked Into
action. ...
Private-Box Piety.
The popular Idea or going to heaven in a
hand-basket may be beautiful, but it is too
democratic to suit suburban New York. Accord
ingly a church is being built with a gallery
upon the private-box principle. This gallery
will contain nearly thirty private boxes, exqul
aitely furnlfibed, ana each capable oi accom
modating twelve occupants. Each, also, Is te
contain a eentre-table for books, hats, gloves,
pocaei-nanaKercmeis, etc. is not tne iaea a
nice one ? Is It not pleasant to know that every
owner of a private box can attend to his de
. votioBi in secret, wlthoit being distracted by
the regards of any save his own family ? .Then
the luxury oi the thing Is another recommenda
tlon. The frivolouB-minded will perhaps feel
that that religion must be : worth something
which provides deeotee , such luxurious orl
ental compartments. The spiritual million-
1 a. V I . , . .
aire can sum uiwseu out from the pre
sumptuous masses who assume a common
plane with him on religious questions, and the
family that plumes' itself on its ancestry can
knock at tbe door of the kingdom of heaven
without having their gloves soiled by contact
witn tne aruean ruuo uauu. ali 15 a b a.
The St. Louis Tribune says that the people'
or .Missouri euro uuuiwg auom aui agricultural
school, but do care something about a school of
mines, which tbey want to be located iu the
mining region in the southeastern portion of
the Slate, and to be "a real, practical, and
thorough school and not a pretentious sham
A Colorado critic apologizes for the short-
rnmin!?s manliest in bis account of a recent per
fnrmnnce. bTsavinar that he was compelled to
hang on to the gallery and let his feet hang
down among the audience, and that all he could
do was to interview tbe man who hung by bis

FREXCn BEG OAKS.
Frtm IU rmU Mall Gaitttt.
There is scarcely another nation in Europe
which baa legislated so much and done so
little for the suppression of beggary as
France. While Italy and Spain still tolerate
and almost recognize it as a profession, and
while the protecting traditions of fendal
times in England and Germany developed
themselves into regular institutions for the
Erevention of mendicity, France seems to
ave constantly believed that mendicity can
be ordered out of existence, or 'that it can be
abolished by severe penal law, without the
necessity of doing anything for the relief of
real poverty and destitution. Every French
historical work of the last lftO years whieh
attempts to deal with matters beyond battles
and court intrigues, has something to say of
measures taken against beggary, and of the
constant increase of beggars in spite of such,.
remedies. M. Maxime Da Camp undertook,
in the recent number of the liecue des Deux
Mondts, to bring together the scattered evi
dence on this subject, and give ns an essay
which is the more valuable as considerable
light is shed upon this evidence by the study
M. Du Camp has made of the present state
of beggary. .
Ihere was a time when beggars of all the
large towns, and especially those of Paris,
formed almost a regular corporation, with a
chief bearing the title of Coesre, who had a
whole staff under him; these gentlemen car
ried on their trade, when circumstances' al
lowed it, knife in hand. The chief residence
of the Parisian beggars was the Cour dea
Miracles, and a comparativaly recent report
(1849) shows that the enclosure of Saint-Jean-de-Latran
contained twenty years ago a
population oi beeears. which cave it tin
cach.it qui rapptlle les anciennes Lours des
Miracle. The opening 6f the line des Ecoles
and of the Boulevard Saint-Germain dispersed
tne population ot this dangerous quarter
into dark lodging-houses, which may be
found in all the various districts of Paris.
The laws against beggars are traceable to the
sixteenth century. An edict of 1524 directs
that beggars shall be whipped and banished;
but this seems not to have bad much effect,
for an edict' of the following year orders
them to be hanged if they do not leave Paris
forthwith.- La 1532 Parliament prescribes
that they should :be linked by twos, and em
ployed to clean the Bewers; while an
ordonnance of Charles . IX, of 1501.
condemns them to the galleys for life. Fortv
years later, another ordonnance prescribes that
tcev snail be publicly noesed. branded, and
have their heads shaved. The municipalities
of many provincial towns did not take such
energetic measures, but invented a more
original one of appointing special officers, who.
under the name of chasse-gueux and chasst
coquins had to keep the town clear of beggars
by all appropriate means, including actual
hunting. It was under Louis XIV that more
rational steps were first taken for the pre
vention rather than the punishment of men
dicity. In 1057 the Hopital-General (con
sisting of the three branches of Notre-Dame
de la Pitie, La Salpetriere and Bicetre) was
opened, and Paris got rid of something like
40,000 beggars. Old soldiers were the only
kind of beggars who still remained in the
Streets until the opening of the Hotel des
Invalides.
Yet even these measures did not answer for.
any considerable length of time, for the pro
vinces sent new masses of beggars into Paris,
and in 1G88 the old law about the galleys for
life was again promulgated. Some twenty
years later a Btill greater effort was made to
put a stop to the evil by decreeing that every
one proved to have Riven alms to a beggar
should be fined fifty livres. In 1711 Law
proposed to transport beggars to America,
and the Compagnie d'Oecident was author
ized to carry away as many men, women, and
children as it chose from all the branches of
the Hopital-General. But this also did not
help much, for a few years later
the law oi galley and branding pun
ishment was ' again in full vigor. The
number of beggars, however, was hardly
so great at that time, and the measures taken
during the Revolution probably still lessened
it; for in 1720 a kind of workshops is esta
blished upon the proposal of La ltochefou-cauld-Liancourt,
and Necker declares to the
Assembly that the King keeps des ateliers de
cnarite for 12,000 persons. Under the Direc
tory a considerable amount of tolerance was
exhibited, and the number of beggars in
creased again very largely; so that finally the
Government was again f orced to take mea
sures for driving them at least out of .Paris
into the country, where, tinder the cover of
royaliBtio favor, they carried on brigandage
and incendiarism on a most extensive scale.
The Code : Penal finally settled the. men
dicity laws which are in operation nowadays.
Article 274 declares that any person found
begging in any part of the country where
mere are lnsniuiions ior we reuei oi uu
poor is to be punished with from three to Bix
months' imprisonment, after which he is to
be sent to the depot de mendicite, while Article
277 declares that a beggar found in possession
of arms, or of an implement propre V effrac
tion is to be sent to prison for a term of from
two to five years. The Second Empire having
I If - 0 A-tl?
done very mucn in me way oi estaouamng
charitable institutions, these mendicity laws
are carried out with great severity.
After the sentence has expired the
beggar is transported from the prison to one
of the depots de mendicite. Saint Denis or
Villers-Cotterets, where he is bound to work
in any trade he is fit for, and where he is
kept until his earnings, with a deduction for
tbe cost for bis maintenance, amount to a
sum which is considered sufficient to give
him a start. It is for the authorities to de
cide upon this matter, according to the air
enmfitances of each case, and to the number
of times which the beggar has been convicted,
ine total oi these prisoners amounted in
1809 to2".88 at St. Denis and to 811 at Vil
lers-Cotterets, in both cases the number of
men being double that of women. Of the
first of these establishments M. Da Gamp
speaks in very uniavorabie terms:
La malson de repression de Saint-Denis eit le plus
Imnionde cloaque qui se puisne voir. Depots qui
t'al entrepris cette Bene a autopsies soelales. i'al eta
ountralnt de duecendre aans oiea dea bouiros el

siecle, sous l'adminlstration direct e de l'etat, un lieu
si parttculleremeat delabte, pourri, et mal&atn, e'est
ce que je n auraia ose uuHgmcr.
Villers-Cotterets is better spoken of, but it
is not so much a house of detention as
hospice for dettitute people, the number of
convicted beggars forming there only a very
small minority. A characteristic feature of
the inmates of beth theue houses is that on
leaving them they liever Bay to the guards
"adieu," but only "au revoir," so sure are
tbey to be arrested again, again to be sent to
prison, and again to appear at the depot.
