They comprisé inspectors of meat, of eggs, and flour, tasters of wine, ete. and ambulantinspectors called flairuers ot smellers. The duties of the latter ‘extend all over Paris ; over every shop where edibles of any description are cabaret; every stall and band barrow ‘with fish, vegetables, fruit etc., exposed in the streets for sale ; and it may be said in their favor, that they pitilessly seize all damaged and adulterated ar- ¥- [ticles which they succeed in detecting. ‘They visit, on an average, eight thou sand establishments every month, in the course of whieh period the seizures made by them vary from three hundred the season of the year. Detailed re- ports, addressed to the perfecture of police, specify the quantity and char- acter of the articles seized, from which it would appear that provision dealers, milkmen, and grocers are the principal offenders. In: the month of August, hibition, during visits paid to six thou: sand five hundrdd and eighty one es. tablishments, no less than five hundred and ninety seizures ‘were made, being at the rate of nearly ten per cent. From long practice, these smelling inspectors have acquired a kind of in- fallibility, which the delinquent trades. men is the first to ‘recognize; conse- quently their dedsions are rarely contested.

AY - These ambulant inspectors have not substances offered to the public, but to examine ‘carefully, and confiscate if -'| requisite, the utensils employed in the preparation of alimentary substances. | For this purpose they visit the kitchens | of thé various restaurahts, traiteurs, ‘tables d’hote, and boarding houses, and any copper vessels on which verdigris is discovered, or plated dishes and spoons, the plating of which has worn off, are immediately sent by them to |W® be. re-tinned or silvered, as the case mdy be. In like manner, they prohibit the use, for culinary purpases, of zine utensils, or earthenware oses colored with arsenic green, or glazed with any varnish, the basis of which ls salt of lead. "The inspectors of meat areattached to the various Paris slaughter housés, and to the Pavilion of the Halles Cen- trales, where the Paris deadmgat mar- ket is held, Early every morning, as soon’ as the various pieces of meat railway statiops are numbered, they commiénice their rounds, and stamp every joint approved as wholesome with the letter V, in blue inka All unsound meat is at once put aside to be sprinkled with spirits of varpeatine, the strong odor of which renders i it use- i es, It is dustrial uses, Mott fay bos aad y but yet retains certain nu- iRiauen to faed So careful are the sathoritis with regard to the main: ingredient of the universal omelette; that they have ap: pointed no less than sixty five inspector of eggs, fully half of whom are con- stantly employed in examining singly every egg sent to the Paris markets, which they do by holding it up before a candle. All thatare bad areat once destroyed, and such as are gver stale are sold to gilders and others for trade egg ‘inspectors are charged with the duty of testing the stocks of the retail dealers, The tasting inspectors of Paris have to exercise an active supervision over the extensive depots of wineat Berey, | and the Halle aux Vins, and to visit no less than twenty four thousand ‘es tablishments where wine and other liquors are sold. They are only ap: pointed after an examination, at which they are required to give proof of their powers of instantly discriminating all the different kinds of wine presented to them to taste. Adulterated wine seized by them used to be emptied into the but many poor people collected it in jars and saucepans, and with sponges, Now it is thrown into the Seine, on the principle, we suppose, of rendering to the river that which has been mainly derived from it. Distinct from these several corps of inspectors of provisions are the inspee- tors charged with verifying the exact itude of all scales, weights, and meas. ures of capacity in use at the markets, and in the shops and warehouses of Paris. So certain are offenders of being detected and severely punished, that the use of fraudulent weights and measures is confined to the lowest class of Paris tradesmen; and although, during 1867, the police reported be- tween ten snd eleven thousand cases, including every kind of petty irregu- larity, with reference to weights and measures, only two hundred and twen- ty six of these were regarded as fraud. ulent, and submitted to the police tribunals. All this active surveillance, though powerless to prevent fraud, is effica- cious in checking it, and more partic- ularly in insuring to offenders an amount of punishment proportionate to their deserts. The fines inflicted range from fifty francs up to tweaty thousand francs—a fine of the latter amount in addition to several months’ imprisonment, having been inflicted on a landed proprietor convicted of adul- teruting milk sent by him to Paris, Whenever substances deleterious to health have been employed for pur poses of adulteration, a sentence of imprisonment is invariably inflicted, as well as ‘the customary fine. But the best feature of the French process is the publishing of all sentences on placards, printed at the delinquent’s expense, three of which the police are required to see duly exposed in the window, on the door, and inside his shop, for the space of fifteen days. The remainder, usually about twenty, are/posted up by the authorities in the immediate neighborhood. Spite of the activity displayed in the detection and punishment of offenders, the French, nevertheless, persist in.ex- ercising their natural ingenuity in the clever sophistication of numerous ali- mentary substances; We learn from M. Michael Chevalier, that turning water into wine, so far from being a miracle now-a-days, is a matter of com- mon occurrance, All that is necessary is to add to it certain of the following ingredients, according as to the erus of Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne or the wines ‘of the South have to be indicated :—cider, perry, spirits of wine, elder and juniper berries, mul- berries, beetroot juice, corriander seeds, sugar, treacle, campeachy wood, chalk, ‘alum, carbonate of potash, sulphate of iron, oxide of lead, litharge, and tartaric, tumeric and acetic acids. There are, at Cette, scores of flems which imitate ‘mot merely French wines, bat concoct the great bulk of foreign wines drunk in Paris; and at Rheims one well known house prides itself on producing every description of wine, spirits and liquear under the sun, - "Paris milk, though superior to the has; if too many ‘instances, an ‘unfair proportion of water, and is indebted for rauch. of its mucil nous) alii er ares Aor eee hears, and which are turned to more profitable account, ‘The so-called olive consumed in Paris; is produced from poppies, rape seed, colza, sesame, va- rious nuts, the fut of fowls mixed with honey, and a score of other substances. Sugar and tea ave, of course, subject to endless adulterations ; salt is com. monly mixed with powdered sandstone; while, a regards chocolate, so largely | the other, and exported to the furthest corners of the globe, much of it is| made of bean or potato -flour, burnt almonds, veal or mutton’ fat, and cin. Ground coffee is adulterated with bar- ley and other meals, bestroot, carrots, adorns, chestnuts, and, as a matter of course, chickory, which, in its turn, is largely adulterated with refuse from the distilleries, ochre, brickdust, soot and even common black earth, The use of this last substance would seem incredible were it not well known that coffee berries themselves—such as would stand thetest of any ordinary examindtion<-are actually manuface tured, like bricks, of clay, ‘and, after being ground dp, find their way reg- ularly every morning into tens of thou- sands of Paris’ cafetieres. The artifi- cial berries approximate so closely to the natural ones, in their ‘unroasted state, that they can be mixed * with them and escape detection ; and as the price is one fortieth that of pure coffee, no matter what the proportions of the mixture may be, the result is: certain to be profitable to the grocer. The only machinery required by the artifi- cial coffee-berry maker is any number of sheet-moulds, opening and shutting with hinges, each of which will lmodel a hundred berries at a time, After being filled with clay, and closed, they are placed under a powerful press, and exposed to a slow fire, On the moulds being opened, the dry berries, which have the greenish gray tint of geou- ine unroasted coffee, fall out them. selves, The great merit of the invention is this: Supposing a person to be of an economical turn, or fastidions in the matter of the flavor of his coffee, and he should determine, not only to buy this unground, bat to roast it himself, so as to preserve all its vaunted aroma; well, the false berries will stand even this test; for the essential oil which the roasting brings out of the genuine coffee will be absorbed by them, and the productions of art and nature will emerge from the roasting machine with precisely the same hrouze coating. It is under this deceitful envelope that the clay berries pass into the coffee mill, and thence into the coffee-pot, where they impregnate the boiling water with none of the anticipated aromatic flavor; and, in truth, one must be unreasonably exacting to ex- pect them to do so. All ‘that can be said in favor of clay coffee is, that it is inocuous to health, as when dissolved it forms a sediment which, if detected at the bottom of the cup, is set down to genuine coffee: grounds, ‘It is certainly considerate on the part of the manufacturer not to poison the people whom he robs. Let us at least render him this justice. Just as the Parisians have found out how to make coffee without coffee, so & | have they discovered the way of mak- ing boullion, or beef tea, without beef. At the gargotiers, the lowest class of Paris restaurants, a species of ingen ous fraud has of late years become very common. It consists in’ passing off warm water, jcolored and flavored with burnt onions and caramel, and into which some little grease bubbles have been injected, as soup, It is true that Bones which have been twice well stewed; first by the larger restaurants, and secondly by the inferior class of traiteurs, and cast away ds done with, are stewed in this water for the third time, in order that it may be ' impreg- nated with some particle of animal substance; but as this fails to impart to it those little:greasy bubbles which the French term eyes, and for ‘which the shrewd frequenters of these estab- lishments invariably look to satis'y themselves that the broth they drink has been actually made from meat, a clever cook got over the difficulty by filling his mouth with about a spoonful 3 fish-oil, and, after tightly compress. g his lips together, blowing with all his foros, 0 84 t0 send. forth 8 greasy epioures. of certain, type. that an employe aus yeus ds bouillon, as the individual who performs this operation is termed, is now sn indls- large way of business. Parisians of a certain class are inor- dinate eaters of hum; in faet, almost as mady hams are eaten in Paris ‘as leg being cured in accordance with the French practice, The ‘demand was cooked hams: bought. up the old bam: bones at a couple of sous a piece, and. ingeniously of pickled pork, which they trimmed to shape, and coated with grated bread- crusts. In this. way many bones did duty hundreds of times over, lasting, the dealers in the morning, and fre- quently return to them en he ame ight, to quit them again the fol ia hr y; nevertheless the supply ald keep pace with the demand, the Ro Doanichos of having for your ham until servant took back the ham-bone Xhich ‘the chareutier relied upov receiving yesterday. It was to obviate sucha state of things that an ingenious indi- vidual conceived the ideas of manufac- turing ham-bones ‘wholesale, and ere long he drove a thrivin trade, at ten sous the dozen ; since w which time the stock of hams has augmented, and the porgine delicacy become less difficult of attainment,— Good Health tpt Paris Continues to be Exelted- 100,000 Soldiers in the City— Rochefort Writes an Inflam- matory Editorial. Paris, Jan. 13.— 2 p. m.—The ci- ty is still greatly excited. During the night the disturbances continued, but there were no sersous conflicts. Sever- al policemen were wounded by stones thrown, and one was dangerously stab- bed while attempting to quell the dis- order. A magistrate was struck on the head with a stone and knocked down. Msny other outrages were also com- mitted. The troops have not appear- ed in force since tbe crowd in the Champs Elysees was dispersed last night, but extensive preparations have been made to guard against any repe. tition of the disorder. There are now in Paris over one hundred thousand soldiers, including a detatchment of cavalry, recently arrived from the gar- risons, and several battalions of infan- try from Vincennes. The police force has also heen largely increased. It is vot supposed the people will dare make any further disturbance, The Marseullaise appears to-day, as usual. The tone of its articles is very violent. Rochefort, in’ a leading edito- rinl, says : “The demonstration of yes- terday was a cry for justice.
