Goldfish Have Fun with the Turtle.

GAMBLING IN PARIS.

Nothing in connection with private gam
bling can possibly have been more lament;
able than the scandals that have occurred
of late years in Paris. The scanua! OF VIZ y,
Cercle De la Rue Eoyale must be iresn IN
the memory of most readers. The hue
Royale. as it was briefly called, was one OF
the most exclusive clubs in Paris: IJS
members were all rich men, and OF hlgh
social standing. The Ccrc'e IN question
stood second in importance only, TO Tue
Jockey Club. The gambling at the hue
ROyale was very high about ten year
ago and consisted for the mos.
part of the game OF Vuinze, ~
which large sums of money changcd
hands. One Of the players, who, although
| a rich man. had nearly Deen ruined ~ tnie
game, began 20 suspect that somethlhs
was wrong. and upon closely examining
the cards he discovered that some OF tho
most important ones had been undouoted-
ly tempered with. The game was at once
stopped, and the servant who supplied inc
cards was summoned. The answers thls
servant gave were considered 10 De so VI
satisfactory that descent was maIe on ni'
house, whore quantities OF cards, oil InhrA-
ed the same way, ready TO De de i5Jor
ed at the club, were found hluueh
about in different parts OF his room.
OF course the servant was only

must have bribed him largely to WORK ior
hiu,. The fellow absolutely refused 70
diyulge the name Of his employer, ana ms M,
wife, who was also implicated, was equally
silent. The upshot OF the affair was thas
the servant was sentenced to three
months Imprisonment aud the oluo was
