The perverse habits OF the police officers in Paris
have got one of these keepers OF public morals in
trouble. At Il certain hour OF the night between
twelve aud one when the opera closes, certain
number OF ladies who have no home are regularly
escorted 10 the watch house. A few were last week
arrested for an unusual gathering, and among them
TWO young ladies who were immaculate who had
proper homes and were in every way patterns of
propriety. The fuss made can be fancied. Mothers
took alarm, ffgdYo was delighted, Mr.. Communicate
came down on Figaro, proestations from parents

society avenged, ara lit serves him right is the
unanimous opinion-unanimous but in the mind OF
your correspondent not universal: FOR inquire what
were the immaculate ladies doing ont AT night in the
crowd OF 'rreguarsY' Fathers and mothers are
going about the sanctty Of the hearth and the
wide contrast between that anu the watch house.
Well, certainly. Bnt, again, that gathering on
