 Reviews from the Neue Rheinische Zeitung Politisch-oekonomische Revue by Marx and Engels
M. Girardin does not rest content with this general suggestion but at the same time gives us a form for an insurance policy or registration such as will be issued to every citizen by the state.
Girardin himself is at once obliged to abandon the apparent independence from insurance which he for a moment allows individuals to enjoy.
It is true that Girardin only envisages the issue of 5 thousand million mortgage notes, but the augmentation of paper money by such a sum would have the effect, not of making capital cheaper, but of devaluing paper money entirely.

 The Project Gutenberg eBook of The Cross Of Berny, by Madame Emile De Girardin.
Until that deed I had only been the son of my father, the heir of my ancestors; now I was to become the child of my own deeds.
For one instant I forgot my despair in the happy thought that I had just done the noblest deed of my life; I had danced with a wall-flower, whose only crime was her ugliness, and had changed her misery into bliss by rendering her all the intoxicating ovations due only to beauty.
I promised you a paragraph upon her eyes and hair; her eyes were a changeable gray, sometimes blue, sometimes green, according to the expression and the light; her chestnut locks were separated in two glossy braids, half satin, half velvet—many a great lady would have paid high for such hair.

Emile de Girardin, deputy and editor of the daily paper La Presse, supporting in both characters the new party of Progressive Conservatives, and for a considerable time past one of the most violent opponents of the Ministry, whom until lately he had supported, is a man of great talent and activity, but without any principles.
This demand occasioned a discussion in the Deputies, in the course of which M. de Girardin fully maintained his assertion, declaring he was in possession of the proofs, but refusing to give any names, as he would not play the part of a delator.
Duchâtel denied; M. de Girardin re-asserted; M. Duchâtel re-denied: M. de Girardin re-reasserted, and so on, the whole accompanied by the shouts and counter-shouts of the “choruses” of the Chamber.

 Schulers Books (The Paris Sketch Book - 37/64)
We know nothing of M. Girardin's private character: but, as far as we can judge from the French public prints, he seems to be the most speculative of speculators, and, of course, a fair butt for the malice of the caricaturists.
His one great crime, in the eyes of the French Republicans and Republican newspaper proprietors, was, that Girardin set up a journal, as he called it, "franchement monarchique,"--a journal in the pay of the monarchy, that is,--and a journal that cost only forty francs by the year.
He invented, we believe, the "Institution Agronome de Coetbo,"* the "Physionotype," the "Journal des Connoissances Utiles," the "Pantheon Littéraire," and the system of "Primes"--premiums, that is--to be given, by lottery, to certain subscribers in these institutions.

 Childs Gallery: Gavarni, Paul: Biography
However, Gavarni was first apprenticed to an architect and an optical instruments firm because of his demonstrated talent in mathematics, and later went on to enter the Conservatoire des Arts et Métiers to study mechanical drawing in 1818.
Upon his return to Paris, Gavarni practiced the same method of intense study and observation that just learned in the country, becoming an urban spectator: an artist reveling in the sensory delights of a city while maintaining anonymity in the streets as he gazed and sketched.
However, Gavarni was staunchly supported by his critics (including Balzac and Gautier, Sainte-Beuve and Jules Janin and particularly Edmond and Jules de Goncourt after his death), and stands as one of the most important lithographers, both as an illustrator of modern nineteenth-century life and as an artistic innovator.
