THE THIEVES OF PARIs.-A writer in the
Pal Nal Gazette describing a visit to the
neighborhoods occupied by the thieves of
Paris, says; A few years ago there was a
band of the cafe of the nineteenth century,
from the name of cafe on the Boulevard
de Sebastopol which they were in the habit
of frequeniing. The members of this gang,
nineteen in number, were anything but
desperadoes. Their mode of business WAS
TO sneak into apartments by means of false
keys during the absence of the lawful ten
ants, and walk away with any portable ar
tlele Of value that came to hand. They
were all young men of from twenty to
twenty-five years of age, and at the time of
their conviction no less than ninety rObber-
les were proven against them. The police
captured the whole gang at one swoop. A
remarkable gang OF thieves whose names
were always on the books of the prefecture,
observed the Oldest police agent, was com.
posed OF family of Jews, and went by the
name of Nathan's band. Nathan had been
imprisoned for theft when child, before
the time OF Napoleon T., and it was in the
reign Of the present Emperor that he un-
derwent his last punishment when he was
seventy years old. He and his wife with
six daughters aud their husbands Oor they
were all married), had suffered 200 years Of
imprisonment among them at the time old
Nathan was last sentenced. They were all
thieves, and Nathan carried on the trade Of
receiver as well.
