TnE Lokpon Dust Bins. -The contents of every dustbin in this vast London are carried away periodically. The dustman receives a small gratuity from each householder, and when he has collected a cartload he demands another shilling at the gate of the Paddington Wharfs, as he deposits it within their precmcts. A dust heap is very valuable to the contractor, and a large one is said to be worth £4000 or £5000. It has to be sifted, sorted, and disposed of. We can give but a slight idea of its miscellaneous contents. Its chief constituent element is cinders mixed with bits of coal, from the carelessness or waste of thousands ot servants, which the searchers nick out of the heap to be sold forthwith. The largest and best of the cinders also are selected for the use of laundresses and braziers, whose purpose they answer better than coke. The far greater remainder is called breeze, because it is the portion left after the wind has blown the cinder dust from it, through large up--nght iron sieves, held and shaken elbow high by the women who stand in the heap, whilst men throw up the stuff into the sieves. The breeze and ashes also are sold to brickmakers, The ashes are mixed with the clay of the bricks, and the breeze is used as fuel to burn between their layers. But the heap likewise includes software and hardware. The former includes all vegetable and animal matter—all that will decompose. All these are carried off to .be employed as manure. .... Stale fish and dead cats come into this list—the skins of the latter being stripped off by the sifters, who can sell them at 4d. or6i according to their colour, white being most in requestThe "hardware" does not merely mean broken pottery, though of this there is ereat abundance. Part of the pottery is matched and mended by the women who find it, and becomes their perquisite. The rest with the oyster shells, is sold to make new roads' But hardware m the dustheaps means rags, which co to the papermakers; bones, which goto the boneboilers; old iron brass, and lead, to salesmen of those metals; broken glass, to old glass shops; old carpets, old mattresses, old boxes, old pails, old bas. k.?J\ b^ ken. tea-boards, candlesticks, fenders, old S- faand Mer^ hie^ {P^ -and not forfSs£& v*?** w& ch u S°k baskets to the "trans■i?;t^?»;i;'who,t«»»oMßhoe3 J into new: everything in short that the householder has thought "notwor h mending," besides many a wasteful addition which the masters never knew, from mansions where recklessness and extravagance bear rule.
