It is as old, at list, as ths tiros of eIIAUCLR, who makes his Hat of the Tabard twit the Cook of London with theeffects his dishes produced upon the stomachs of pilgrims. The first sanitary in spector on record is Sir Joke Pastel: " There is lime in this sack." Nevertheless, we cannot bring our selves to participate to the full extent in the Waite ration panic that has been raging for the last year or two. Were one-half of what we are told true, the Mortality Bills would weer a very different aspect from what they do. Still, thereon be no doubt that sad tricks are played, and that too by some whose position in life would entitle to to expose better things of them. But what is to be done? Of the multitudes who eagerly read the evi dence of adulteration scarcely one has an answer to give when asked what is to be done. It is a matter of course that inspection and inspeotorship should be proposed. As commissions, with barristers of six or ten years' standing, were the prescribed remedy for all grievances under Whig Governments twenty years ago, so now are inspectors the one idea of professing Reformers, in Parliament and Government ceoes. But inspectors sppointed to pry into grievances sad watch over the administration of laws are becoming more un popular every day, after having always been made to feel that their function was not an accepta ble one to anybody. We happen to have bad a good deal of evidence passing under our eyes of late of the views of the working clause on this matter; and we find them asking a question which seems to as very reasonable : Why, if the object is to get abuses pried into and brought to light, are gentlemen salaried to do a sort of work which seems to belong naturally to the police?—the polio. having a keener ssent for tricks than any other order of social protectors an be ex- peeted to have : and, if the function of inspectors is to see that certain special laws are duly observed, the existence of such a function speaks ill for the laws in question. Every good law, sound and natural in its origin, works of itself; that is to say, society is in its favour, and it is is fact an utterance of the general will. In Use cue of such a law, the Mos of inspector would be • sinecure; and where the oEse of is• specter is not a sinecure, the public may be pretty sure that there is something 'lastly in the constitu tion of the creator. which Deeds such protection ; and the official is thoroughly aware that throughout his beat nobody is glad to me him, and most people regard him as an intruder when he cannot be charged with befog a spy. The fact is, the working classes of this country are becoming more and more dimon tented with the interference threat upon them under the names and with the incase wpm of prates tio. I and it is within oar own knowledge that many of. them say that in a little while the working Eiglish: man, who used to be considered a man moss men, will be unable to do a single thing without somebody to help him, es if he wen a child among nursemaids. Between one sort of supervision and another, be finds hireseU never left in pews He sun take eon, be thinks, of his life and limbs, of his health, of his wars, of his basin's' and his defile on week-days, and of his soul and his holidays. Sundays. While he wants to pt rid of some of the azisUng impede. and protection, it is not likely that be will went to the establishmest of mate in a new direction. The name sad the idea are unwelcome to him, however true it may be that the inspector of dregs or food will not isterfau with him dinetly, and however decidedly he may be of *pinion that something Rust be done to pat an and to the prevalent adulteration of food sad drugs. The constant reply of the sturdy 11 wetly a is that In old times men could take we of themselves and that they could do so still, if Governsest had sot its Sager in every pis If farther asked how he would deal with the difleulty of the day, sad get pure breed and bra, sad salt and mustard, and pore ensdieine foe a ehild whops very life may depend co the goadamsof the drug prescribed, he might possibly be at a less ter an answer. Bet it appears, by evidence of great interest and importance oared to the Parliamentary Committee on As Adulteration of Food, that the working dames have taken their case into their owe head' to an sweat which will surprise, and mast reface, many who are anxiously turning over the uses flow Vs their minds. It appears, in het, that the "woekies,• to the number of teas of thousands, have been mewing themselves against the evils of adults reties of food for somas years—from the time whoa the misehief began to make a noise. To go back a little farther than the dates given to the Committee, it appears that parchseen snag the poorer clams have been esersieng the arardaem moat likely to be Lead moss buyers who lay oat their cm nosey—that nosey being baldly earned. They found that then were two methods snag others by whist they were anted. One was by the byline' of "Wolin articles; and the other by adelteration of the goods. The system of "Lading articles" (whisk w brg to say has so somezios with joarealissa) is this :—That some comma sort of goods that everybody uses sad know, the value of, is sold very cheap, in order to give f charmer of diapason to the shop, while the value is taken at is the &tr ine/ of articles less familiar to customers. Thus saga: sold at a loos will carry off with it dear tea sad ease sad spites; sad calico mold at a lam will tarry off deer shawls sad staffs. Under the other method of cheating, the buyers bead their bread small fa properties to the weight s their pepper and mustard did not glow end sang t the Ns me net fragrant, and the sugar was not duly sweet.

The Oonaitns ea the Adulteration of Food were told by the meager of the Pe opWs Flour-mill at Leas, that the society was established in 1847, for the porpoise of °Noising pure leer. The quantity of wheat 'resod is 400 quarters per week, sad 20,000 perms are supplied with it. And on what term? At • rate so advantageous that the mat sada. aim adulterator cannot aster into the sompstities. Each proprietor holds • genes share or less; and es this 6 per cent. interest is paid. The prat assesing, aotwithstandiag the cheap prise of the Boar, has given the members a bonne imemiderably exceeding is its man total the amount of their amiss. There are several other associations of the earns kind at Leeds and in the other manufaisturing towns of Yorkshire and other counties, and the members sew gratulate themselves on having the pure produce of the wheat when samples of breed taken from the counters of Leeds bakers show a very high rate of adulteration. Another witness, the bookkeeper of a cora-mill moiety at Rochdale, gave much the ease account of the mill scheme, and added tome informa tion about the stores established by the working men at Rochdale, for the purpose of supplying the mem bers with all common articles of food at coat rises, with the mere addition of the expenses of manage meat. The number of these stores is now very con siderable in the manufacturing districts of England and Scotland. They may be numbered by sexes, and who can wonder when food and medicines can be had pare, and clothing genuine, and all cheap In one place such a society has distributed several thousand pounds of surplus, and elsewhere the meta bore save, in the pan:these of food which will nourish and clothing which will wear, the wherewithal to pay their rent. There will always be lazy housekeepers in all classes who will desire sod expect to get everything of the beat for the asking ; to have immaculate bread from every baker's counter, sad the purest groceries in fall meaner* without troubling themselves to smell, taste, or weigh. These will expect Govern meat to take oars of their interests for them, and "see that it is all right." But we would not have Hammes come down to lift our wheels out of every rut ; and the " waifs* of the flour-mill and store enterprises have shown us that sensible people can protect themselves better than any Government can protest them. If tradesmen do not wish to see their business trans ferred to the heads of agents of societies, and their shops shut op by so-operative stores, they must look to the quality of their goods, and fiod some escape foe themselves from the difficulties they complain of in dealing honestly. If "the people" who set up stores and open mills can get pare groceries and boy and sell sound wheat without admixture, so may others. The stir and alarm must bring about a re form. The roamed will always find a way. Mean time, it is &remarkable and cheering fact that in many quarters, and among a great multitude of the people most nearly interested, there has bees an organised and successful resistance to the adulteratiss of food for many years past. The people will do their temple d= for themselves. Their neighbours are potently able to me that the adulteration is not done by retail badman ; and the wholesale dealers must give the retailers saleable goods. In tie long run, the best articles command the market, and the cheat goes to the wall. If oar " worlds." have found the means of driving the cheat to the wall. honesty in we to prevail. Our working men have discussed and demonstrated how adulteration of food is to be °hooked: it le by helping yourself, without the intervention of lawyers or paid investors. At mix o'clock on the morning of the 20th of March, 1811, Paris was awakened by the cannon of the Ineslidos arinouncing the birth of the first-born of the Great Mcrorsox. It had been arranged that twenty gone should proclaim the birth of a prisons— & hundred and one gang the birth of a print's. After the echo of the twentieth had ceased there was, we are told, a pause. Mete expectation waited. Bet when the twentyfint pronounced the birth of a Bing of Rome—an heir to the Throne—the wok nation of the thronging citizens overwhelmed the thunders of the artillery.

There is a strong impression that the Emperor will make some announcement relative to peace to the &Kate and Corps Lees Wit to-morrow. The Paris, however, admits the propriety of a prolong ation of the armistice till April 80, which would not be neameary if the settlement were close at hand. There will be a grand review in the Champs de Mars on Thursday. I believe I may state with certainty that it has been decided to send the Count de Morny on a spe cial mission to St. Petenbarg almost immediately. Wooers' this news assumes that pesos will speedily be made. Baron de Mantsuffel, whose arrival in Paris to take part in the conferences u the plenipotentiary of Prairie I announced yesterday, is aocompanied by Baron de Rechenberg, first secretary of legation. The following bulletin was issued to-day at the Tuileries: March 17, Noes. The health of the Empress is ezessedlogly satisractny. The state of the Primes-Imperial is excellent. Di. H.

Although the public, without distinction, were admitted, the number dulls was comparatively small—the reason being that humble individuals could not readily believe that they were at liberty to pass unchallenged through those well-guarded portals, which are habitually only traversed by the great and privileged. There was, therefore, no crowding. The visitor whose solicitude or curiosity prompted him to take this unusual opportunity of going to court, was conducted throogh ales of imperial footmen in splendid liveries, passed along corridors where Cent Garde', armed to the teeth, were standing sentry, and after mounting a staircase of three or four steps, found himself in • salon, where there were a secretary in black and a chamberlain in a red tonic, much like thatof a oolonelof the English guards. Both these functionaries rose politely to receive the inquirer, showed him the bulletin, and pointed to the book where he was expected to subscribe his name.

Not only were all the public offices, theatre., ministries, &0., brilliantly lit up, but private bows almost every where hung out many coloured lanterns. Long before the hour appointed for the opening of the theatres for the public gratuitous performances at two o'clock to-day an immense number of people had rumbled outside the different homes. The scat of thus entertainments we. at the expense of the civil list, and at all the theatres the first arbiter per formed. The following theatres, in addition to their ordinary performances, gave something appropriate to the occasion At the Grand Opera • mutat& was executed ; at the Tbeitre Francais, an ode on the birth of the Prince-Imperial; Optra Comique, a can tata; Odeon, " Le 18 Mare;" Metre Lyrique, a can tata; Vaudeville, " L'Espoir de in Francs;" Varif :es, "Ina Berman Imperial; " Palais-Royal, " 101 Coups de Osseo l• Porte-Saint-Martin, divertissement allegorique ; Gaith " L'llatent de la Francs;" Asap Cookies, "Ala Vote do Canon" and at the Cirque Imperial, a cantata.

Before the private baptism of the prince, the members of the imperial family and the court attended mom in the chapel of the Tuileries. The court preacher took a text appropriate to Palm Sunday— " Henan:otos qui unit in noosing Domini." " Binned I. be who °meth in the name of the Lord." After making an ordinary applisadoe of these words, the preacher exclaimed, " But your ideas auticipate mine: public gratitude mingles with the new besedietices at the triumphal pomp of the Saviour of the world." Then. with an apostrophe, he pro eseded—"Lord Jesus, supreme Master of hiage and people, Thou bast beard our prayers, and hest granted the wishes of the sovereign and of the country. We return thanks to Thee before our altars for having given to an august union that fruit fulness which forms the loyal this great day.

The Minister at War ham ordered the 140,000 remit% &lsd oat by the demo el Marsh 6, to join , - their regiments between the 31et of March and the ith et April next. Thie peremptory order disposes very effectually al the suggestion, that because the deans left the Minister at War a discretion as to ' the time when the men were to take up arms, they might perhaps not all be wanted immediately. The Bourn does not show itself sensitive to re mote dyeasties! questions. The birth of the Impe rial Prince produoed no effect whatever there. The market is over-bought by weak buyers, and great capitalists and the Credit Mobilier principally take advantage of the sitastion to sell for account, and to obtain enormous interest for carrying over. The Rents fell 40c. for cash, and 30e, for account, closing at 72k. 60c., and 73k. 160. Credit Mobilier fell 17fr. 300. Railways were from 2k. 600. to 6fr. lower. Gt. Rambert and Grenoble fell 12fr. Mc. A letter from Marseilles states that the corn market there has a decided downward tendency. Large sales have been made at 271 r. per hectolitre, African corn also falling.

The four marks, which h►d been ten days ago at 89fr., and 88fr. the sack of 169 kilogramme•, went up to 94fr., and afterwards fell to 92fr. Very little bui nese, however, has been done during the week. M. Horses Vernet has just finished a grand pic ture of the battle of the Alma, painted to order for Prince Jerome.

It alas states that the Em peror has granted out of the funds of the Civil List the following donations:-10,000fr. to the So ciety of Authors and Dramatic Composers ; 10,000 fr. to the Society of Men of Letters ; 10,000 fr. to the Association of Dramatic Artistes; 10,000 fr. to the Society of Musicians; 10,000 fr. to the Society of Painters, Sculptors, Engravers, and Designers; and 10,000 fr. to the Society of Inventors and Industrial Artistes. The Moniteur also pub- lishes a poem of twenty-four verses by M. Theophile Gautier, entitled, "Nativite." The adulation and daring extravagance of these lines have seldom been equalled.

The aspect of Malta is anything but pacific just now : munitions of war and troops are forwarded with unabated activity to the East. 4,590 men were sent from here lut week ; and from persons who sp. pear capable of judging, I hear the very highest accounts of their training and high state of disci pline. Very great praise is due to Sir John Pen nefather and his staff for their attention, not only to the drill of these men, but to their comfort ; for they looked not only smart soldiers, but contented, happy men, proud of themselves, and delighted at leaving for the Crimea. The departure of the various steamers was a most exhilarating sight— such playing of bands, cheering, harming, more like starting to a wedding than to a fight. Beside the 4,600 men which have been sent to the Crimea, other 3,000 are ready to embark. Various changes have been made among the depots, so as to make room for the Italian Legion, which are to disembark at Fort Manoel. Peace appears to be very unpopular both among officers and soldiers; they look upon it as a personal injury. They all appear to be in fighting humour, and will be sadly diem). pointed if they do not have another campaign. Mr. Muir (a Freemason) has proposed to erect a solid block of marble to the " Memory of the brethren who have lost their lives in the Eastern expedition in 1854 and following years," to be raised by Freemason' of Malta and the united services. The proposition has been at once responded to with that liberality which always distinguishes the brethren, more especially those of Malta. The cenotaph is to be placed in the Crimea, and will consist of one solid block of marble 7 feet long by 3 high and 3! wide, weighing over 41 tons. Mr. Muir is appointed treasurer, as he formerly was to procure the handKime present made by the brigade of Guards to the Union No. 588, on their musing through Malta in 1854. Orders have been received from England to collect in the Crimea all the bodies that can be found of the °Moen of the Guards, and have them interred at Cathcart's Hill. The Hon. Sir Montagne Stopford, Port Admiral, lies been very ill with the gout, and confined to his room; but the duties have been most efficiently carried out by the ever active and energetic Sir Houston Stewart, who proved himself so eminently calculated for the post in 1854. He now, in the ab. sauce of Sir Edmund Lyons, commands the fleet, and never was a fleet happier or in a more efficient state. The Great Britain brought about 1,100 of the Its lies Legion, and they . are now displaying their peruse and uniforms in our streets. She brought also some 30 bullocks, the contractors having ob. tained from the admiral several steamers to Procure cattle on their paying the cost of the vessel. They have been successful in procuring cattle from Italy. The King of Naples has again permitted, for a limited time, the exportation of biscuit and maccaroni, on the payment of a trifle export duty. The rebellion in Tripoli being ar. turd, we shall have greater facilities for procuring cattle from that country. Mr. Hamilton, who it was said had been seat to Constantinople in chains, is still be that country. CapL Goldsmith, C.B.,camea passenger in the Fire brand, to proceed to England to take charge of Chatham Dockyard. Capt. Pym, of the Firebrand, took charge of the Sidon, vice Goldsmith. Captain Oiffard. of the Leopard, has been invalided, sad proceeded to England. Her first lieutenant takes her to the Black Sea; so there are two vacancies for captains, one in the Leopard and one in the Firebrand. The Beagle, Lieut. Hewitt, had to put back, from some alight damage to her machinery. Mr. Odger, boatswain of the St. Jean d'Acre, was tried for drunkenness, and reduced one grade; but no court-martial could have been more flattering, for both his captain and commander spoke in the highest terms of him, and he is stated to be the beet boat swain in the service. The St. Jean d'Acre has gone to the Black Bea, calling en route at Athens. The Highflyer has also gone, taking with her the Hon. Mrs. Choy, wife of the admiral at Constar. tinople. The French fleet, en route to the eastward, passed our island a few days since. We have also numbers of small screw steamers calling here en route to the Crimes, with all sorts of ventures. Some I fear will be failures, from the market being overstocked. However, should they tail at Constantinople, there is plenty of work for screw steamers in the Mediterranean, and if only common prudence is adopted they must realise large profits.
