POVERTY AND MISERY IN PHILADELPHIA
Local items in Philadelphia are becoming
scarce. In view Of this fact, reporter Of the
Press has lately been securing the dirty alleys
and bye-streets of the city in search Of matter
to fill up. The following is a description of
some of his perigrinations:
We enter another house, farther up the street,
owned by one James Duffy. The house was
empty when we entered, and was undergoing
a renovation. 1t is what is known as q lodg-
ing and assignation house. There were two
rooms the floors of which were covered with
straw, each room being about fourteen feet by
ten, and the capacity of the house being esti-
ing is as follows: night on bare floor, cen ts;
night on bare floor with pillow, 4 cents;
night on straw and pillow, 6 cents; night on
straw, pillow and covering, cents; in all
cases payable in advance.
We 60 a few doors farther up the street. and
enter what is called an eating house, or as the
sign has it, "Restorant." Here is long coun.
ter covered with cold yictuais Of all kinds
remnants ofturkey and chicken, rice pudding
pies, bread, soup, &C. These victuals are coll
iected by beggars, sold by Wholesale to the
keepers Of these eating houses, and by retail
to hungry deniZens of the neighborhood. As
an idea Of what q dinner costs in Baker street.
We print the following bill offare:
Rice, cents; rice and Molasses cents:
chicken, wing or leg, cents; turkey, wing or
lean, cents; bread and water, 2 cents; bread
and whiskey, 3 cents; mutton, 3 cents; mutton
bone, 2 cents; veal bone, 2 cents; beef bone, 2
cents beef, with gravy, 5 cents; mackerel, 3
cents; herring tail, 2 cents; herring head.
