In the provision and grocery houses and
the large import warehouses there is
something like activity. People must be
supplied with food. A curious develop
ment Is the growth in the handling of old
furniture and second hand household
goods. The columns of the newspapers
are filed with advertisements Offering
''gangac," or bargains, in this line. These
advertisements tell a two-foid story. In
many cases the sale means existence for
families who have survived thus far, and
who hope to tide over the last and final
stage of distress by parting with the bulk
Of their household effects. And the sign
of hope Is that they find purchasers
among the refugees who are returning to
the city and setting up housekeeping
again. There are also many purchases
by small spectators, who buy with the
expectation of selling at a later period for
a better price

these sales, for many of them include the
horses of the cavalry regiments. During
the blockade the high prices of fodder
caused the loss of many animals, partic-
ularly of the cab horses. These are now
few, and a line of cabs looks like a ske.e-
ton caravan. The cavalry animals have
suffered comparatively little and many Of
them will soon be drawing cabs through
the streets of Havana If the Spanish
battalions had oxen to auction off as well
as horses, it would be an immense aid to
agricultural production. Unhappily they
helped to consume the oxen, ana few are

FAMOUS PRISONS.
Disappearing From the Capitals of
Europe by Removal.
From the New York journal.

hNuEOA2C Nv hSukONIAs
From the New York journal.
Following the example of London and
of other great European capitals, Paris is
now removing all her great prisons from
the center of the city to mere remote met
ropoliian districts far beyond the ram
paris. Tho reason is partly due to sanitary
grounds, partly to the necessity of addi-
tional accommodation for the prisoners,
and last, but not least, to causes Of econ
omy. The old prisons, comprising Mazas,
the Grande, the Petite Roquette, Sainte
Pelagie, Sainte Lazare and the Conc.er-
gere are ali located in the most densely
populated quarter Of the town, where every
square yard Of ground is valued almost
as a small fortune.
BY dismantling these prisons and selling
the sites for commercial purposes the gov
ernmeat has been able to secure funds for
the construction of new prisons in The dis
tant suburbs on a modern ana far more
extensive plan. Thus Mazas where dur
ing the past half century so many famous
French and foreign hnanciers have been
confined, both prior and subsequent to
their trial, has just been purchased by the
Paris and Lyons Railroad Company for
the sum of 100000 francs while the site
OF Sainte Pelage has already been pur-
erect thereon number of apartment
houses.
With regard 10 Sante Pelagie, there are
few literary men Of any cminence in Paris
who have not at one time or another done
time within its walls Likewise many of
the statesmen of the present day have I'M
dergone detention there, especially during
the latter portion OF the reign of Napo-
leon III, for il is the prison which from
time rnmemorial has been specially APP
propriated to political offenders and to
Journalists and to authors guilty Of Of
lenses against the press laws of France.
One of the most recent prisoners Of note
Of Sante Pelagie was Henri Rochefort,
the editor and owner Of the Intransgeant,
and among those whose names may still
be found on the former registers Of this
house Of detention are the late Gamaelta.
Senator Rane, Ninemassant, the founder
Of the Figaro; Emile dc Girardin jules
Fdvre, Lockroy, the present minister of
marine; Alexander Dumas. the elder nd
younger and in fact, almost every star
that has appeared on the literary rma-
ment Of France during the past century.
With regard 70 Mazes probably the most
famous prisoner who spent any time with
IN its walls was the celebrated banker,
Mires. who practically ruled the money
market in the French capital during The
greater portion of the reign of Napoleon
III. His mere touch seemed 60 convert
everything into gold, and he dispensed
the later with as much recSlesspess IS
&c his treasure had been as iacXhausu-
