Low Life In Philadelphia.

The Philadelphia Gazette, in sketchine
the pcculiarities of a noted quarter of that
city, thus describes rag and bone gather
cr's "hotel:"
The house is hotel on a small scale 1t
contains ten rooms, cellar included, whose
average dimensions are eight by ten feet
The cellar is rented to an organ-grinder,
who with his family, cat, sleep, and live in
the subterranean apartment. The floor is
simply earth trodden in solidity, while the
furniture comprised thrce-legged stool
two chairs, and a bundle Of straw in one
corner, upon which the man, his wife, two
children and an old woman all slept. The
room above the cellar is restaurant. We
arrived Just in time to see the purveyors re-
turning from the market The purveyors
aforesaid were four little girls, who deposit
ed tolerably well filled baskets upon the
boards that constituted the counter. The
viands are begged from door to door, and
given by tender-hcarted servant girls, who
supposed them to be intended for the suf-
fering parents of the children.
Bless the innocence Of some good people F!
The contents of these baskets are devoted
to very different purpose. The bones
having meat upon them are assorted out,
pieces of bread ditto, upon the different
plates, which are sold to customers at from
three to six cents, while the bones and in
separable masses of"cold victuals" are jun
bled together in tin boiler, and converted
into soup, which is sold at three cents a
bowl. Rooms overhead are rented to fami-
lies and transient guests, eight cents night
being the price per room, or three cents for
single person. The sleeping accommo-
dations in the latter instance, consists Of a
piece of carpet laid over some straw: in the
former case, furnish for themselves
The passport to these accommodations is
the three or eight cents. No references
are required, nor candle held to the faces
of applicants to ascertain their color or ma
tionality. The swarming occupants of ths
house are about evenly divided into black
and white, and nearly all of them are il

QUALIFYING HMsELF- The London
Quarterly for July, has the following story:
A native Of one Of the South Sea Islands
went to Missionary, desiring baptism.
On his confcssing that he had two wives,
he was told that he could not receive the
sacrament until he should promise to be
content with only one. He retired without
taking further explanation. The next day
he presented himself again and reiterated
his desire for baptism, saying he had then
only one wife. Upon examination it was
discovered that he had qualified himself 70,
the ceremony by killing and eating one o.
his wives.

School Exhibition.
At the Academy building on Friday last,
Mr.. & Mrs. Wakeman treated the public to

Among the older ones who showed great
proficiency in composition, defamation &C.,

is well that they are qualifying themselves
for usefulness. ,. ...-... ...-...
The first prizes were awarded to Miss
Martha Scott and to Miss Anna Douglas.
The second prizes to Miss Fanny McCra-

| Compositions were read and Dialogues
participated in by Misses Irene Hibbard,

sw-A correspondent of the Rnicker-

TEA correspondent of the Knicker-
booker, from Toledo, Ohio, tells an amusing
story Of the acute sense of smell, of tobac-
conist. He and his clerk We're examining
some tobacco, submitted for his inspection
After carefully inhaling the flavor, by three
or four protracted shifts, he exclaimed to his
clerk John, can't you smell old leather
in that tobacco?' Clerk presented it to his
olfactorieS, and 8 thought he could" The
chief then smelled again, and declared
that he could detect very slight flavor Of
"maple sugar" This last aroma, John pro-
nounced beyond his powers. Samples OF
leaf tobacco you know, are taken from the
middle, where there was found an old boot
heel, jul Of maple pegs' Judgement on ''to-
hacker" from that quarter, is now regarded
as final.
