PARTISAN ECONOMY.


No doubt there have been of late some very
strange things utilized in Paris. The news
papers have given hints enough of the expert
mental diet of those from whom emanated
the saying, IL .tdut naGngeT; but a short time
since very singular trade had sprung up,
for there the lower classes have not the same
objection to use refuse food that our own
have. Some years ago an old soldier named
Pere Chapellier, who for some time followed
the profession of a rG0Ggeltr, one of those
odd beings who still in that city rake about
the central gutter of its back streets with a
hooked stick and lantern, perceived in the
course of his business that when the Chiffon
nseTS came in with what they
had collected, they always had a
great quantity of pieces of stale bread which
they could not dispose of. Perceiving this,
and knowing that vast quantity of bread
crumbs are used by the cooks aud the Paris
ians generally, he determined to establish
himself as a regular preparer of bread
crumbs. He could not depend upon the
chtD0nnferS, however, for a supply, so he
made an arrangement with the cooks and
scullions of the schools and colleges and con-
vents; and one morning he posted himself in
the centre of the Halles (great market), sur
rounded with baskets full of bread-crumbs,
and round his hat he placed in large letters
the following announcement: - Bread
his trade increased, and presently, growing
ambitions, and ascertainiDg the wants of
the cooks, he determined to turn bread
crumb manufacturer, and sold them two
sous cheaper than any one else. We
quote from Mr.. Simmonds' work the
sequel of this singular ibdustry:-'H saw
that in the bread he received there were two
sorts, the good and the bad. He had thought
of separating them, but then he found the
profit would not compensate for the trouble.
He determined to invent a new industry he
made crOutes az pot. Stranger, if you ever
60 to Paris, never order SOlLpe GU paiR du
cTOutOH, except at the Trois Freres, Cafe de
Paris, or VefOurs. All comes from the
fdbrfQue of Chapellier, from the chi60nnier's
basket, the college scrap basket, the convent
slop-tub. He has established near the
Barrier Saint jacques, ovens which never
cool, and from whence thousands of pounds
of bread are daily poured forth TO be sold as
crumbs or crusts large number of men,
women, and children are busy piiing and
grating the merchandise as it comes out of
the oven. The carbOnized pieces and scrap
ings are pounded, sifted through silk sieyes,
and sold to the perfumers to make tooth
powder Nothing is more curious than the
warehouses of lie Pere Chspellier. They
are immense buildings, where mountains of
bread are received every minute. Workmen
separate these pieces; on the right are those
redestined for man, on the left those
destined for rabbits. Wonderful order and
cleanliness are everywhere visible. Young
girls make up packages of crOates du pot,
after weighing them, children fill large boxes
with the black powder"

The United Canal and Railroad Compa-
nies of New Jersey-Meeting of Stock
holders and Election of Officers.
TRENTON, N. j., May 1O.-The largest,
most exciting, and, in many respects the
most important meeting of the stockholders
of the United Canal and Railroad Companies
of New Jersey that ever took place occurred
yesterday afternoon at the new, commodi-
Gus, and very handsome building erected by
the joint companies on Clinton street, near
the depot, at Trenton New Jersey.
The meeting was organized at II o'clock by
General Robert f. Stockton, who first pro-
posed MIR. Bingham, of Camden, as President
of the meeting That gentleman declining
to act, General John S. Trick, of Vincentown,
Burlington county, N. j., was proposed, and
he was accordingly elected President. Lewis
Elkin, Esq, of Philadelphia, was elected as
Secretary; Josiah Wallace, Esq, as Judge of
Election; and Henry L. Cav and Henry d.
johnson were selected as tellers.
The absve organization was effected to
conduct the election of directors of the Della
ware and Raritan Canal Company, and they
met in the front second story room of the
building. In the rear and adjoining room
the Camden and Amboy Railroad election
took place, and the following organization was
effected:-President, G. w. Stout; Secretary,
S. j. Bayard; Judge of Election, Charles
Tomlinson; Tellers, VIM. Vandergrift and
Samuel Lilly.
Considerable confusion took place at the start
to get in votes when, on motion of Mr. w.
jackson, lines were formed, and the stock
holders deposited their votes by turn. A
large number of proxy votes were taken and
some of the stockholders in voting repre-
sented 2000 shares and over The voting
took about three hours, and at the conclusion
the tellers and judges of election retired to
count the votes, and in due course of time
they reported the successful candidates as

THIS machine Is entirely different from the old
style Beer Pump. It performs its own work, and
requires no labor. The liquors are forced up from
the cellar TO the barroom by means OF pressure OF
air made by force OF water, and can be drawn just
as clear as directly from the barrel.
Among the many advantages claimed for this
machine are, that the beer or ale never becomes
small expense OF ice.
