Among tlio curhuitirx if Paris life aro the
jinall carls that call at th back gate of thu
innlKis'dcs, palaco.i, i4oluurxnts, hotels, and
jrcat houses in funeral, to riicoivo the remains
of the iliiuiurs left, not by tho upper Ion lliou
Hamt only, but likewise by tliuir servunts; nnil
mihl every morning by the oohs to tho emls
caries of a race of coxUmiioiijjom whoso fetalis nt
the (iru.it inarhuU aro furnixhod by tlicso stnlu
viol unit, which have tindu their dehiit on tho
table" of tho wealthy. These earts aro cloned
in, 1 tit recognizable by a 3'rt of chimiu'y in the
lop, which admits of free voiitillation. Tho
n-cnnd-hund vitudx are thrown pell moll Into
this cart, and aro paid for by the weight. Ini
nfinn tho appearand) of thin pnot-pourrio called
"arlwpiiin" when it readies the stalls of tho
market. The llrnt protein it tho triage, or
sortinc;, a work of no small dlllhiiilty when por
tions of lobster, hcsincarrd witlt soup, have to
Ik) extracted from tho romaiin of fruit tarts, in
which they aro luibcitdcil. Tho most presenta
ble morsels aro pared, cleaned and laid on a
dishs this process takes place in some remote
corner out of sitfht, hut the selection is noon
completed, and, strange to sty, by twelve
o'clock these scrap i from tho plates of tho rich
nro eagerly bought up by a certain clasi of the
poor who prefer their savory llavor to more
wholesome, simpler and cleaner food. What
ever cannot be siitlleiently pared and arranged
for human fool is disposed of for pet house
dns, Italian grey hounds, and such like aris
tocratic ipmdrupcils, The bones, however,
found in these deposits, are laid aside and sold
to tho maiiufactiir'TS of concentrated meat
locnges, and by them, after having been ladled
down, aru got rid of to tho ooUiMiuudehl of
uiiinial black, so mueh in demand by painters.
Hut to return to the nrltipiinv, this tradu of
liny in f the remains of dinners is by no means u
had onnj many of tho-e who purotiu it retire at
tho expiration of a few years on comfortable
little incomes of four or live hundred a year.
To witness the prepiratinn of food ilcsurihcd,
us well as similar manipulations no less curious,
it will ho necessary to go in tho great markets',
or I lalles Centrales, between tho houis of four
and llvo in tho iimriiiin,'. Tim great market
place is opiNisito the celebrated Church of St.
Mustache. Tho cellars are well worth Hcningi
they aro tho receptacles of Incalculable ipian
titles of fish, fowl, meat, game, cheese, butter,
to., and may easily Ih visited by application
to the overseer's lodge.
Tho next branch ol this trade Is tho bakers
en vieux. It is also quite remuuoiativc. To
collect the crusts thrown away by school Isiys,
or dropped by these earelu-nyoaiigstoM in their
pluy ground, trampled oil, ami, oftentimes,
bespattered with ink or ni'id, has proved to be
a lucrative occupation. Tho hast il'.thy of there

.Nearly all tho countries, colonies and islands
of tliu civilized world aro represented in the
I'ApnMtiou hy spedmens of tho diHcruit varie
ties of edible grains that arocultivated 'tctwecti
the degrees of .'IS" south ami 70' north latitude.
Foremost in tho edible grains, and most tint
ii nil to human sustenance, is wheat. Its his
tory runs tiarallcl with that of mankind, nud
its consumption in fotm of bread has over in
creased and gone hand in hand with civiliza
tion and refinement. Tho cereal products of
the world, though alwayj probably htillicient to
supply the hungry mouths of its inhabitants,
seem, like the population, unequally distributed;
hero a surplus, there a delicicncy, and again a
positive want of bread. In many of the densely
Nip'ilated jiartsof Kuritpo tlio product is barely
siillieient to supply the consumption; in others,
a large animal delicicncy must bo provided for.
A short crop is often attended with tho must
serious commercial ami political dillictilties;
hence tho question of bread becomes vitally
important. There is, h iwever, always a com
puisation in the stirp'iis of other count: i m, as
it is rarely or noior t!.o case that universal
scarcity or famine prevails in all thu food pro
ducing countries at thu same time.
Tho countries which may bo consider) d ll o
great producing sourccaof supply are thu United
States, Uuesia, Cermauy, Dciimaik, Tin key,
I'vO'l'tf I't'uucc, Austria, .v.paiu, Italy and Port
ugal. Theso countries ixport mow or less in
seasons of plentiful crops, to their neighboring
nalioiiA in Kuroe, but some of them aio fre
quently comjicllcd to import largely for their
nun use. Kugland, with her prolilh fields ami
splendid system of agriculture, has a positive,
eruianeiit and increasing delicicncy of supply.
In tho department of cereals tno United
States should have equalled, if not excelled, all
other nations, hut it 's to ho icgrettcd that
there nro hut comparatively h-woxhihiti'.which,
however, in qua'ily.dcinciMtrr.'e t!ie ipcriority

School For tho Dor.f rind SainS.
We have received from Kev. P. S. Knight,
principal of the State Institute for the instruc
tion of Deaf Mutes, the report of thi.s school
for two years past, and gather tho following
fatt.s from it: The teachers amlollicca ore Itcv.
and Mrs. Knight, Mr. ami Mrs, I.. C. Tuck
ami Mrs. Mary I. Cooper, matrop. Ihcro are
tlurty-ouo pupils, from eleven diflerout coun
ties of thu State, livo of them from Washington
Territory and one from lied Itlttlf, California.
Thu total amount of expenses for the two years
has been ?ll,M:i TV, and tho report shows that
while the number of scholars has lievn small
very small in comparison with tho niimhir in
similar institutions in other States, tho expense
to the State, per capita, has been very much
leas, ai will be seen by comparing with tho fol
lowing Statin; Now York $284 .S3 for
each scholar, per annum; Ohio $1112 t(i; Con-neeticiitS-MT
"l; Minnesota S'.OI .'It j Nebraska
.-.'iOII h.'i, while ill Oregon each scholar has cost
tho State but $IS." -- per annum, which is
satisfactory showing, more so aa thu older States
have tliuir Deaf and Dumb aiiylums elected at
the cost of the State, while in Oregon the Statu
has had to rent buildings for this purpose. Thu
r.'port also shows that in IK7-7 alargocxpcti.su
was incurred on account of sickness, owing to
1 10 pre.i3iiccof diphtheriai'i thcschool, of which
N0IN0 Davi. of Silverton, died. Tho repoit
speaks very favorably of the services rendered

After 11 o'clock last evening whilo Special
ofilccr Gwyno and another man wcro scouting
below this city in tho vicinity of thiwTerminua
saloon, they camo across two men and a bay
near the forks of the road. Tho partios an
sweriug tho description of the rohbera, tho two
men attempted to capture them. Tho two mm
aided by tho darkncs3 made their cacapo, hut
thu iKiy was captured. Tlio !xy tslU hrietljr
and substantially tho following story:
His ago ii lOyeara, and his (initio is C'hrrlo
Schwartz. Ho aamo to thia place on tho ship
(leo. F. Manson, from Philadelphia. Ho loft
tho ship doon after alio reached Astoria. Soon
after, ho became iicqlotnled with two men who'
were stopping at 0110 of the hotels in. tho lower
portion of tho city, Tho tucu aikod him what
hu proposed to do now, that he had left the
vessel. He said hu intendod to looLabout and
see if he could gvUany work to do. The names
of theso men, young Schwartz, aaya, aro John
r,on anil llrown. lloth men told him that ho
was too good to work and that ho had bettor
go with them atil'he could do bettor.- Schwartz
says that ho anilMohnson went up tn Oregon
City to look for work, hut failed tn. Unci any.
Theso men seemed to tako a great fancy to
him, ami paid hbdloard at tho hoUi for a time,
While they wuro stopping at thu- hotel, ho
heard Johnson nud Drown talking about the
pawnbroker shop. Theso men went out almost
every day to look for work as thoy said. They
often brought hack apples, but failed to got
work. I lu said they camo back cursing every
time. On Tuesday morning they told him to-
stand at th j curlier of Second street,, whilo they
went into the pawnbroker shop. Ho stood
there a few miautes, nndraw them enter. Then
ho came down and went in. He- left tho door
a littlo ajar as ho entered tho pawnbroker shop.
Olio of the men told him to shut tho door, but
ho said. "What is tho nro of. shutting tho
doort" Tho man camo, and shotting tho door,
tciid: "Wo do not want evcryhudy to sco no.
Soli wait, aaid then llrown and Johnson stiuck
Mr. O'Shca outlio head, and one went through
tho safe whilo the other took the jewelry.
When they wt-ru t'et.: ted and the alarm given,
tho men told SchwurU lie must run and make
his e-capo with thom. Ho told thcin that ho
had .nothing to do with tho crime, nud that he
did not intend to leave. They told him ho
must run away with thcin, lor ho was aa deep
in thu crimo as they. Hu then started and
mdu his cscnjH tlrough the. back of tlio shop
ami out through tho store. After yetting away
from tho city, tho throo took to thu timber and
thus effected their escape,
aynutig SchwarU wa evidently pretty badly
frightened. Ho hi not villainous leo'ung by
any moans, ami dozens ot 1m.11 and bo,, s who.u
we sue on the street daily, l.au much harder

Olhcers Hulson, ftrviie, and others, at once
started for the sccno of tho hoy's capturo, and
tho two men will bo followed up with all possi.
