REGULATION OF THE PRICE OF
BREAD IN PARIS.

In nothing is that spirit Of minute supervision
so characteristic Of the French government, more
remarkable thai, it's regulations with regard to
the price of bread in the metropolis. However
incompatible this may be with that freedom of
movement which is claimed for the trade of bread,
in common with all other departments of COM
merce, the French regulations must be admitted to
be effcctual for their purpose. We copy the fol-
lowing from one of our exchanges.
Every bag of wheat, -four, or meal that comes to
the city must be brought to the Halle Bile, or
Grain Hall This is an immense area, inclosed
with circular wall, and covered by huge dome,
so that it presents vast unbroken hall, Of grand
and beautiful proportions lighted from the top.
Various stalls, with desks for the Offices of the
clerks and employees On the floor of this hall
are piled up, dollhouse fashion, in huge piles, ten
to twenty five feet high the bags of grain, present
ing to the visitor striking panorama of solid
plenty.
The city of Paris is surrounded by wall, not
for Defence as it is comparatively slight but sim
ply for police revenue, and other municipal pur-
poses, one of which is the regulation of the bread
market. Barriers that is gates, with police at
tendants and revenue officers, form the only en-
frances to the city, except the River Seine, which
has also its guards. Every bushel of wheat or
other grain brought to the city for sale, must be
registered and stored at the grain hall, under
heavy penalties This regulation is rlSluly en-
forced which is easy to do at the barriers with so
bulky an article; especially as the bags must be of
uniform size.
From this register Of the daily supply, the gov
ernment of the city know at any hour just how
many pounds or pecks of grain of any kind there
are in Paris. From accurate statistics required
to be furnished, they know how much -four or
meal is baked daily at each bakery, and how much
bread of all kind is consumed They are there
fore able to fix the weight and prices of loaves,
each size and shape of which has its appropriate
name, according to the ratio between the supply
and demand, allowing fair and just profit to pro
ducers, traders, bakers; no more, no less. This
price, thus fairly graduated, at short intervals
is fully proclaimed to the public, the dealers, the
bakers, and the police
The police is authorized to drop in, at any time
into any bakery or brcadshop, wherever bread is
exposed for sale, and weigh the loaves. There is
also special inspecting officer appointed for this
express purpose. His visits are not stated, that
they may have things got ready for exhibition In
stead of inspection, according to the English and
American fashion Of doing such things 1t the
inspector finds weight deficient, or the price of :
peculiar kind of loaf too high for the grade, all tbt
bread in the shop is swept off at once, and dstrib
uted to the hospitals and eleemosynary establish
mcnts of the city. Thus the public protected
against private cupidity specializing in the means
Of existence.

LEGISLATION AND THE CURRENCY.

LEGISLATION AND THE CURRENCY.
The Journal of Commerce in reviewing the dis
cussions and proceedings of meeting OF the
friends of sound currency" in New York, re-
marks:
We have had far too much legislative tinkering
of the currency already, and we have little faith IN
the benefit of arbitrary enactments. The laws OF
trade will better regulate these matters IT we leave
the subject entirely to them, and not nterposc so
many legal Interruptions. five are to have special
legislative privileges on one side, we create ne
cessity for special restraints the other but free
trade like the truth. needs less careful watching.
If possible, therefore, let the reform take the di-
rection of enlarged freedom, instead of fresh re-
straints To remove the more common tempta-
tons to reckless banking and to provide more
substantial basis for the credit superstructure we
cannot yet afford to demolsh, why not take step
in the direction of freedom, and abolish the odlous
Usury Laws? 1t is the operation of these tyran-
nica regulations, left a legacy from the bar
berous ages, which render SO many other legisla-
tive restrictions necessary.
We forbid the legitimate loaning of money at
over seven per cent, and then create, by law
class of institutions which are enabled to declare
eight and ten per cent dividends by the very
practices we arc now exhausting wisdom to
prevent. We increase the competition in banking
without increasing capital, by refusing the same
profit to money employed in more natural chan
nels and after stimulating this strife by every con-
ceirable legislative artifce until the fever thus
created leads to all sorts of wild excesses, we set
to work, on the homeopathic principle, to cool off
the excitement and restrain the madness by fur
ther exhibition of the same process 1t would be
refreshing, at once, to step taken Ill the op-
pOste direction.

THE DANCING.

"Look lookp said a half dozen lady voices ono
pretty night, we sat leaning against the outside
of the ballroom. We did look-alas for our
poor modesty, we ought not to have done so. off
my children among them, I'd whip them
we'll for it. Yes if they were full grown, I'd give
them the hickory" So said the wife of one of
our princes, as she turned away in utter disgust.
Doctor, let me describe little-if the public
may look, certainly it may read, though it run.
A group of the splendid ones is on the floor, and
lovingly mated The gents cncrcle their part
ners' waists with one arm. The ladies and gen.
tlemen stand closely face to face. The gents are
very erect, and lean little back. The ladies'
lean a little forward (Music.) Now, all wheel
and whirlc, circle and curl Feet and heels of
gents go rip-rap, rip-rap-rp Ladies' feet go
tpity ytip, tipity-tp-tip. Then, all 60 rippity,
clippity, tippity, bippity, skppty hoppity jumpi-
ty bumpity, thump Ladies fly off by centrifugal
momentum. Gents pull ladies hard and close.
They reel, swing, slide, sling, look tender, look
silly, look dizzy. Feet fly, tresses fly, hoops fly,
dresses fly, all fly. 1t looks tuggity, huggity, pull
lity, squeezity, pressity, rubbity, rip The men
look like cross between steelyards and climber
Jacks" beetles and jointed Xes. The madens
tuck down their chins very low, or raise them ex-
ceedngly high. Some smile, some grin, some
giggc, some frown, some pout, some sncer, and all
sweat freely The ladies' faces brought against
those fthc men, into their bosoms; breast
against breast against nose, and toes against
toes. Now, they go again, making sound like
Georgey yporgey, dereypecry, ridley ypidey, coachey-
poachcy.
"This dance is not much, but the extras arc
glorious" Ifmen were women, there would be
no such dancing But they only men, and so
the thing goes on by aoonsam's lone Of it. When a
boy, we used to visit these Dutch dances, and
trip the whrling beer barrels, as they passed our
feet and then run for dear life. We still feel the
instinct of tripping in toes. A secular writer
says: "There is no established standard of pro-
prety about this matter. If | lady, |
might object to these dances but, being a man, /
do not. We certainly ought to be satisfied, if
they are"
The western Democrat. [volume] (Charlotte, N.C.) 1852-1870, 1858-12-07

In the latter case, the hcrse is led by groom on
each side and is never allowed to go out of walk.
While passing by these theatres, Mr. IL. expressed
a wish to attend performance but his princely
conductor was very much shocked, telling him
that none but the common people ever went to
such places. If the nobility wanted to see any
thing OF the sort, they made the actors come to
them
Speaking of the stores of Ycddo Mr. Fl = OBJ
served that we would be surprised at their slze
at their contents, and at their great number of
salcsmen, each of whom had his dozen or more
shop boys standing behind him to execute his Or
ders. "Uron entering the immense building, you
see no goods at all" hc said "They are i!stored
in fire proof buildings in the rear: When Gus
toner enters and asks for anything, the sales
man orders the shop boys. the shop boys arPly at

THE KANSAS EXCITEMENT OvER.-Wc see
by our exchanges that effort was recently made
by the free State party to form constitution, and
apply for admission Immediately under a Freesoil
Constitution For this purpose Convention was
called, at which not more than twenty delegates
were present Without any attempt at action,
they quickly adjourned. This, no doubt, ends the
whole Kansas struggle. When she has a suff-
ccnt population, she will then take position among
the sovereigns of the confederacy. In the mean
time, the people having had enough of political
excitement, will devote themselves to their own
affairs and to the development Of the resources OF
the Territory, preparatory to the assumption OF
State sovereignty.

MEDICAL ADvIcE.-Charlcs Lamb, though not
holding physicians credentials, has given bet
ter bit of medical advice the liver complaint
than is to be found in the whole range of profes-
sonal books on that subject. Hear him: .-
You are too apprebensiV of your complaint
The best way in these cases is to keep yourself
ignorant as the world was before Galen, Of the
tire construction of the animal man; not to be con-
scious of a madriif; to hold kidneys to be an agre
able felton, to account the circulation of the blood
an idle whm Of IIaryey's to acknowledge no inc
chansm not visible. For, fix the seat of
your disorder, aud your fancies fux into i6 like
bad humors. Above all, take exercise, and avoid
tampering with the hard terms Of art. Desks
not deadly 1t is the mind and not the limbs that
taints by long sitting Think Of the patience Of
the talors; think how long the Lord Chancellor
sits; think Of the brooding hen. r-

FASHIONABLE SocIETY.-Somebody truly says,
that "society' is a nuisance in Questionable"
sense. 1t is nothing more nor less than stiff
series Of absurd and cold formalites. 1t has no
heart, any more than the Rock Of Gibraltar has.
The password of it is ''Money"-if you've got it,
or make the world think you have, ego in."-
Brush up your beayer-never mind about your
character-and "go in"' Learn the set speeches
of polite gossip dress 'in good taste" pretend to
great respect for sectarian creed, and keep up
fashionable outside show, and you shall safely pass
with the genteel elect. Society is "feariully and
wonderfully made y -

LoTTERIEs.-Sergeant Bermey has just return

He has visited the governors and authorities in
states where the institutions exist, who without

putting an end to the system. There are now

which are in the State Of Maryland, and expire by
their charter in April next-N y Erening Post.

with he early as well as the revolutionary his
tory OF New Engl nd. 1t may lie truly said
that tbs Alayfl wer, which bore the Pilgrims TO
The shores OF New England, was freigLtc,l with
the liberties of tee world. On board that nI-
mortal vessel was framed the social compact
hasing all human government on the consent Of
the governed, and carrying it iHtn execution BY
the choice "f their rulers by their own VOTE
As your fathers lanled on your roekbound
shores, there dawnej the FIRST faint elnnlerng
of the great principle Of selt-goydrnmeni
which rose upon eufrancbisel humanity ia all
its meridian Spen:nr, on the 4ih Of July, 177G.
That greaf principle Of self goverRmeat is about
"et|tg SHJJrCte0 ~ " JiJ 0E ma. pPFfHtpS u pun
lest, IN an unhappy Western Tv1itory, Ii thi,
principle can be subverted there, and such an
aet ratified by Congress, the Pilgrim Fathers
will have llnded in vain on the shcres of New
England; in vain shall its great truths have
been promulg ited'in the Declaration Of Ameri
can Independence, and The blood Of the Revo-
iu.ion will have been wasted on a soil where
military and dcSp0tic power would soon re
sulne their sway, az unicr onr suicide the free
dom of our country and the world forever sank,
with It's last ''bn5bling cry" into that great
deep where it sIoul remain until .'the seas
give up their dead, ;" aud man shall answer for
his crimes the dresd Judgement seat of his
Creator.
As Pennsylvania, have no claims by
birth or ancestry on New England, and pre-
sumo that for this kind invitation to your ami
versary dinner aus indebted 10 my wife, who
Is descendant OK the llustrious Boston printer
boy, Brnjlmin Franklin, in whose principles
and virtues | have enieavered to rear my chill
dren.
In closing this letter, permit me to transmit
for the occasion the following sentiment:
SELF GOVERNMENT Whenever it shall be
endangered here, let every son OF New Eng
land, wherever residing, Use as one mao to the
rescue.
Most respectfully,
your ohedient servant
