One dtiy, In tlie pi insr of 18G8. I w .is sit ting in my t.Jhrie in Broadway, 'etv Yolk, nieilita nig what to do. Business hid not Ix'cn In isk lattly with the firm of Peters fc Henry, private detectives. Cr.nie. was on ilio increase, s t he newspapers said ; but it waa the smt of crime that- did not come within our province. Il all, went lo the reyttlar detectives, none of whom, in tny humble opinion I say this without A mm sel of envy can come any where near either ilauy or myself in ''working up' a big case. lr want of something better to do, I took up Ihe moi'iiius; paper, and gttiticed at it. A line iu display - ii letter caught my ''yc . "A Human Fiend.'" 1 lead the ait idc beaded ilni's to di cover ttbo the "Human Fiend" was. I lound the ailicle to be an account of n se i les of really atrocious murders committed in a little town iu West Virginia, not a hundred miles from I'ai kersburg. Three men had been found dead, with alxmt an interval of it week between each death, iu either their shops or Louses. Ivicli man had nppaienily met bis death iu the same ( mo ever since I had been in the village of cards or bottle of ture whiskey. I wasn't sorry ; and out would come the tumbleiB every lawyer's office in West Vir ginia lias a full supply of tumblers and then the fun wolild begin and last till din ner time, the same thing repeated Hi the afternoon. In the evening we ''loafed" iu the bar-mom of the hotel, and talked over the newr. in the meantime, mind yon, I bad kept my eyes open, and bad not beeii idle. I had heard all the particulars of the mur ders (Yom the. people who were the first to discover the bodies. I learned one little circumstance connected with the first affair, that, bad 1 been on the spot at the time, would have given a sure clue to the villain ! The murderer bad slept iu the bbaal ot bib victim, and left a clear bhaaly footprint iHn the floor. The f'.ols allowed this to be trampled over by the Crowd rtl'Ji Itibbed out ; when, if they bail measured it and made instant search for the nhoe wi.li the marks of blood upon it, ten chances to one they'd have spotted the man. I spoke of this in the bar-room one night, when conversation turned utoii the subject. I confess T was rather heated with whisky, and detective though F am, tongue at such times wages a little Iihj freely. I said ihe police officers weie a rrere set of fools; that if I'd have been there, and had seen the footprint, I'd have spotted the man who made it wiihiti two bouts. This was it bold assertion, of cotnse; atrrt King Whis ky was at the bottom of it. Yet, though I was Hushed with liquor, my natural cun ning was in the sjieech. All the young fellows in the room would only legaut it as an idle boast ; but if the murderer beard it, or of it, be would naturally seek me, to find out why 1 made such a boast. Yult see, I reckon, a little on human uatnie. The conversation went on loud and boisterous around me, when I r-uddenly became aware tliat a pair rf eyes were looking at me, and yet not so that 1 Could see them, le.it I could tell them. I jumped at ihe conclusion at once that but one man bad ii-bshh to look at mo with ryes of aimer, and tbat man was the murderer, whose apprehensions would iiaturall. be excited by my boast. Now to catch ihe eye without a'tttniiiig the owner. Mr. lacksou was mi me te.u ot me the eyes were on the left of me.

The account of these iiiuideis was veiy well wiiiieii, and gave the full par- ild at ' liculars. 1 lie murdered men evideuily bad fallen by the same band and by the smie weapon. Robbery was apparently the moiive, as I he victims bad been telieved of tlu-ir watches and pocket books; and yet the amount of the booty obtiiincel by ihe monstrous dime was small iu the extreme. One man, a poor shoemaker, was said by his tile lo have bad but three dollars iu his pocket ; another, a tailor by ,.rde, bad but a lew pence ; but from the thiid vic .ini, the keeper of a gio.ery stoic, the mur derer was supposed tt have obtained about iwnny dollars, as the grocer was known to h ive that amount with him about an hour befoie the minder. The writttr summed up the article by declaring it to be the be lief of the inhabitants of the little town that il was not plunder alone, but love of IiIimh), that could induce a seiies of such hoi till crimes ; and Ibat a human fiend was iu their midst, whose appetite craved blood, and blood alone. I read the article over carefully, and pondered on it. l'ei baps you'll think I'm interesting mjself greatly about an affair that don' i concern me; but when I tell you thai at Ihe bottom of the newspaper article which contained the account of Ihe minder, i sta ed that Ihe Hovenior of West Virginia bad ollVred a reward of 100 for Hi-, arrest of Ihe miiif'.erei, as it was plain there was but one band concerned it, you w ill quickly see that it did interest me. in fact I had made up my mind to put my t'n me is on that $"'. K. 2S o soone r thought of than I'tesulved to set about it. My plan of ac.ion was ex tremelv simple. I must gotoC , not as a detective, but upon some business which mi me theie at least a month, old miiiolu with the inhabitants, and l u i. sue my invefc'-igalion without ex- ci ing any suspicion. I resolved to make my Hpearsnce in the town in the charac ter of a young lawyer studying for the bar, and coinitiK down there fot peace and quiet to pursue bis studies. I knew a Utile about the law. loo: so I could keep the character very well. As for a disguise, I slaved off my moustache, cut c.ti' my light locks, and sporleri my best brown wig. I've got a collection of wigs, by "be way, that would make au actor go wild with joy. I went to a legal friend of mine Miat I once pulled through a "lac-y" sciape. I thought bo might know some of the law yers in C , which proved to be the case. So, armed with a letter of introduction from him, ami a choice assortment of law books from bis library, I took the train for the scene .f my future operation. I found C a nice, pleasant little vil lage, situated on the Ohio river, and divid ed by a lil t ie stream which came down from the interior, and emptied into the Ohio here. I called on Mr. Jackson, the lawyer, to whom I bad letters of introduction, and found him a fine specimen of the Virginia gentleman, whose only fault seemed to consist of drinking enormous quantities of whisky, and bragging of their town and adjoining cttfriitry. After I bad taken a liilloollice in the main street, the lawyet insisted ujam my stopping with him ; and I began to get acquainted with the people. I must confess I never enjoyed myself bet ter in my life ; for a mote wbole-sotiled, generous lot of gentlemen, in spite of their bragging propensiMea, hai the ones who live on the West Virginian b;nk of the Ohio, don't exist in this w o; :i. .My daily life that for Ihe. iiist two weeks I passed io this little village, was nlaKt the same. After breakfast I weiv t my office lo "study" law ; but piecions little study I did 1 for some of the young fellow, or nne of the old tines I knew everybody within five miles in two days would drop dei. J lin whie-h are two story although I rarely came in contact with him a man who sat by the fire on the op posite side of the room, and w:-is looking at use with eyes that trembled and dilated like I host; of a cat- about to spring. The rest of Ihe face showed no sijti of emotion. Iu my own mind I said, ''There's the man I want. I" I fell so sure of this that I'd have staked ten years i f my life upon it. The thought Hashed into my mind th; t a man v. hobiid hitherto had avo.ded me (why, I knew not, no less he possessed the selfsame instinct that I hatii, would now seek me'. "To-morrow," I said to myself, "I'll find out about your shoemaker I" For the young fellow who Mist saw the bleaaly foot-prints had examined it carefully, and had given me a ptelty g xal description of i it; he of course not I hiuking '.hat I took j moielhau a common interest iu the sub- .: ject. 1 he foot pi bit was .1 81 1 ange oil--, too broad for its length, and in my mind's ee I could S':e the shoe that made it, for I was confident, from the description, that the mnidcrer wore a shoe. Casually I glance down at. the feet of the man who looked at me ami whom I had sKiited, He bad on bonis, long and tiar-r-w, but Ihe toes were curled tip asthouoh the boots weie much too la roe, and the extra length would of course make the bad look slimmer. The partv majn bioko up, and I went home to bed J but all night long, iu my (beams, I was having a teriible light wtill Ihe mini with the eyes. In the morning I took a boot and went to the shoemaker's, a tininian, to get it1 nibiided. While theie I enleied into fcon veisasion with him about the weather and things in geueiah He wna veiy fconimuni cativc, and I picked tip a gtHai bit of in formation. On one of the shelves of the shop I saw a shoe, neatly mended walling for the owner to come ami take it a shoe quite broad, and too short for the breadth. The other shoe, the companion to the one on Ihe shelf, made the bloody print tbat t have spoken of. As I came out of the pIioji, I became suddenly conscious Ibat I I.e. "eyes" were again ujmui it. I did not l.aik to see wheie I hey were. I was satis fied the tuuideter bad seen me leftte t ire shop. He would guess the ol.j.-ct tif my visit there, and he would come and see me soon, lo find out what be ban learned, and then I.d put the "bracelets" iihii him. They were jingling merrily together in my coat acket as I walked on. After dinner I walked down to my office. I bad made no preparation foi my expected visitor, except putting a "life-preserver," into niy coat pocket. In my office I wheeled my chair round with its back to the door, and my face to the ha. king-glass which bung tin the wall befoie me, that commanded a view of the room ; so, iu reality, I bad eyes befoi e and behind. Tr while away the time, till my bird should come for come I knew he would 4 took down my "I'liuiinal Crises." I open at tandom. The page at which I opened contained an account of the trial of n Frenchman, in one of the interior French provinces, for Hie murder of ten little children whom he bad decoyed simply inio a wood, and there killed, apparently for no other purpose, than to enjoy Ihe pleas ure of seeing them die" The proof against htm was positive, and be was executed; the account wound up by saying be was literally a "Human Fiend." I beard a sound upon the stairs. Ho was cominir. I sprang the handcuffs open in my pocket. The step was light anil soft. The door opened, and the (Jer man shoemaker appeared willi my Imot ! "Your boot, sir I" he said, in bis broken English, "A light; set it down," I said, without turning round. Then, by meatiji of the looking class, I saw the cat like ej'es gleaming over my shonlde.i ; a band, holding aloft, a small keen-edged hatchet, was raised to strike. I sprang forward. The hatchet descended grazed the side of my head, chopping off a little piece of Ihe skin, tbe closest shave I with him. wrested thb hatchet from his band, nnd sent it wbirlinsr across the toon. For a moment lie seemed powerless, par alyzed at bis failure then as bis strength catne back, I found tbat I would be but as a child iu the hands of the powerful German ; so I slipped out of his grasp,and as life rttxhed at me, I struclc him a power ful "left banded" on the uose. Tbe blow sent him spinning. oerss the room, ancl covered his face with blood. This was a style of fight ing that he was not used to. With a howl, be catlleled himself up and dashed t brought he door. I followed, shouting "Stop bim !" at the top of my lungs, and at Inst we ran bim to earth in bis lair, the shoerriakers shop. As t lie reader has probably guessed, the man with the cat's eyes, the murderer, and tbe Ger man shoemaker Were one. He was quickly secured. In the back room of bis shop we found tbe shoe with Ihe marks of blood Hried upon the sole be had liefer even taken tbe precsftition to remove the stain and the watches ami ixicket bexiks wi b the money ItltaCt, of his victims. He killed for tbe pleasure of killing. Afterwards, !ien I visited him in jail, he told me that, fitim the moment, be llrsi saw me, something told bim that I should bring bim to justice, and he bad deter mined to kill me with the same weapon, the sharp hatchet, with which he had dis patched bis otbei viclimsi Tbe man whose nature was so deeply impregnated with the btute's love for blood bad also the brutes' instinct of dan ger.

About the first of January, 187G, Prof. Hitchcock, of the Ge ological Survey, and his assistants beean Ihe construction of a raised map of New Hampshire, the design of which was to combine all the present knowledge of the geography of the State which had leen ob tained iu the geological survey made by Pi of. Hitchcock, Prof. Hunt iupdon, and othein. This map has Just been completed and placed in the State House. The map is fourteen feet ten inches long, representing 78 miles in length (being con structed oil a scale of one mile to the inch) and ninety llnee miles in width, from the mouth of the I'iscilnqna river to the north west corner af Hinsdale, showing the er. tire surface of the State, 9,386 square miles. It also shows all the rivers and brooks, oiids and lakes, hills and mountains, and Ike town lines, railroads, etc. The names of all he cili'"s and towns, livers and priii cipnl brooks, lakes and ponds, mountains and hih elevations, are given conspicuous ly, so ili.il anyone can find at a glance what they th sire to look up. The height of the hills and. mountains is given on a scale of one inch to one thousand feet, and actual measurements arc given where know ii. The map Is constructed of pino and bass; wood, and the process of work was this: A map was first drawn on paper of the same size as the raised map, wi b all tbe on lines of towns, streams, ponds, etc., and contour lines for each five hundred feel weredtawii. Tracings of I he contour lines were made on inch layers of pine and bass boards, main t nininiiiij ns accurately as possible the tela tive sine and shape. These weie fastened upon each other, and the valleys weie bev eled out with chisels. Concord Monitor. AX TLivETtLY A l'Pit f.n tick .
