After considerable scrutiny, I decided
"No. * Was ho a professional of any

cision availed little. Meanwhile the
man's presence had a fascination for
me. Ae I occasionally met his small
blue-pray eye. suspicions of his being a
detective were indulged in; bnt he
lacked the hard expression and the se
cretive air acquired by that odious yet
necessary member of society.

satisfied himself apparently, be replied,
"Very." The answer certainly was not
provocative of further conversation;
still it was not spoken in a sharp, cut
off tone, but dropped from his Tips in
~ an acquiwooing, amiable way, as if here
was a congenial subject on which we
could exchange confidences.
"Do you know," I said, "thatj of all

I signified my wish for him to proceed.
" Yes, you may call me a collector.

! Imagine me with hundreds of these
i bills iu hand, ranging from ten dollars i
to a thousand dollars. I don't refuse
t the Tery amallest. These bills art
j against persous of all grades of respee
-1 tabilitv. Often, when pnt in my baud,
1 they are accompanied bv a suggestion
' which the principal thinks he ought to
make, but which he does not expect
will influence me much—nor does it.
For example, he will say, ' I want von
t to collect one hundred and three dollars
from Jones. You must be sure to treat
' him with courtesy and not wound his
feelings—he is a gentleman.' Now, if I
find Jones to be reallv a gentleman, as
is often tlie case, I ha.e no difficulty.
Perhaps he will tell ma he can't pav at
present, and will explain why. the
explain part may all be manufactured
j ont of whole cloth to save his pride ;
[ bnt I accept his statement of inability,
and I sympathise with all my magnetism
with his excuse, and ask him to fix his
own time, when t shall call for the
money. He dislikes to fix too distant a
day, but he postpones, say, for three
i weeks. I accept toe date with alacrity.
■ I produce my memorandum-book. ' Let
i tae see—that will bnng it to Thursday,
J une 4th. Am very much obliged to
you, Mr. Jones. I will call OH that day;'
< ami I look st him courteously, but with
a full current, by which I am
brought too a peculiar relation with
that man, and he ieels I mean busi

" Does he pay on the day ?"
" Not always. Perhaps he will give
j me a rart, and manufactures another
J excuse —poor fellows ! why will thev lie
so?—or, he may really be obliged to
put nre off again for thewimle—recol
lect, I nth talking of a gentleman, and
no mistake ; then I bring a stronger
current to bear, but always as the same
1 polite ' your humhle servant,' and the
next fetches it. Why, such a man feels
as much relieved when be pays one of
my bills as a criminal does at a verdict
of not gnilty. Can't explain it myself
—magnetism—all magnetism !"
" Yon have given me, I should judge,

" I look serious, very serious indeed,

was handed me to collect, and if he will

jbe ou hand. If I can get his sober

ces are he will chaff uie two or three
times, and, as he is a good fellow, my

affird to pity the man. I pity all who
prevaricate and lie, ami he did both.
The collector drew a long - breath, and
continued:
"Next come the unfortunates who are
so hard-preaaed they really can't pay,
but they are ashamed to owu it. Why,

Now, I ciiu-ctye JtAp an appointment,
and if you could hear how, time after

years, new excuses are fabricated for
each ocession, you wouldn't wonder at
my pitv for these poor, wretched, de

" But I should think, understanding
their situation, you would let them

"That is not mv occupation. My oc
cupation is to eoilrct the money, and 1
expect to run after it. Yes, nobody
runs like ma ; morning, arnm, and into
tlie night. M I don't iriiiid It."
"You have said nothing of those who
impose on yon."
" .Ah, it is only when my people un
dertake to impose ouine that niv genius
rises to the occasion. 1 once had a lull
against a club-man—onlv fifteen dol
lars. Yon would know fiirn if I men
tioned his name. He never pays any
thing—belongs to two first-class clulw.
I followed him from one to the other ;
he would make appointments as often
as I liked, but never kept tliem—waß of
the pompous sort. One day he would
be going to receive a cheek J another
day he would show it to fuo : it was to
tie cashed in the morning, and I should
be paid. Then lie would go to Wash
ington, and no one knows where. 1
lost his track onre for three months.
At last I caught him at the Club.
He looked very loftv. 'Thomas,' said
he to the waiter, ' change this bill for
me.' The waiter took it, and presently
returned. It was too large. ' You see
how it is,' mini the magnate; 'if the
boy could change the note, I would give
vou your money. You will have to call
igain.' 'How large is it?' I asked.
'A hundred dollars,' said he. 'I can
change it for you,' (you see, the big bill
dodge is not uncommon, and I go pro
vided) ; so I took the hundred dollars,
counted him nut eighty-fivo. handed
him his receipt, and came away—a
great triumph, a very great triumph.
Poor man, I pity him very much ; think
how hard he must try to be a rogue
jujot follow!"
"You fail sometimes, I suppose?"
" I can't sav I fail. I^never under
take a ' dead beat '—that is, if >1 know
it—never. I don't claim to be able to
magnetize a corpse. Sometimes I en
counter one withont knowing it. It
don't take mo long to And it o*t. Then
I punish him, always with a view to his
good."
"Sometimes in one way, sometime*
in another. A poor man gave me an
account f.ir twenty dollars to Collect
against a yonng fellow in a first-class
jobbing house. I found he was a * dead
beat f ho would make appointments for
every day in the year, and when you
came, coolly tell yon bo hod no money.
It was in July ; the weather awful hot.
One day the fellow said, * Call Friday,
and I will mnke a payment." On Fri
day I called ; he was in the lower base
ment, packing goods. 'No money to
day ;' that was all he said. Two or
three of his fellow-clerks were helping
him. I took off my coat and began to
preach to him. I can preach when I
try. I weut into the detail of ray
client's situation, the nature of the
debt, the conduct of the debtor, his
manner of life, his probable end. I
soon discovered I had the attention of
ray audience—the chap himself began
to slacken in his work. At last he said:
' Mister, if yon will stop where you are
I will pay you five dollars down and
give yon mv word of honor I will pay
you five dollars a week till the whole is
paid.' 'Done,' 1 said. He handed
over the V, and I came away."
" Did lie pay the rest ?"
" Not he. The next week the bird
had flown, and I never saw him again.
But I administered punishment righte
ously. Poor wretch, mv heart bleeds
for him. What a life to lead !"
"And do von never resort to harali
measures ?" 1 asked.
" Such as what?" demanded my com

" Legal prosecution, for instance," I

lie langbed at what he seemed to
think was a very verdant suggestion.
" You do not suppose," he continued,
complacently, " that where my mag
netism fails there is any chaaoe for
law?"
I did not know. " There are other
means," I remarked, " which I hare
heard of. There are collectors, I am
told, who make themselves personally
offensive in dress and appearance, so gs
to be as annoying as possible."
" You arc "right; but that sort ef
thing is pretty much played out. These
are low fellows, a disgrace to an artistic
profession. Why, I knew one of these
vagabonds, who had an old .covered

Th st..rv of the killing of Mr*.

Eureka, who dovvU'd tt lurgy shatv of

which aha was it fttouiber. One dsy, a
I few wiwk* ago. her deadbodv fws found

ned k l r under lathing, which be
troyed tin intyrbper, though perhaps not
orimfoal, iutinuirTl>ct*ceii the deceased
ami a clergyman of the town, * tmut
i nunied Workman. This gave the tlrt
ollte to tlto coamiiasuui of tho crime.
W of Julian wa pruduotal, but ho denied
' any criiuiual intimacy with the woman,
uud al denied any knowledge of tlm
enitse or uiannef of Iter death. Sus
picion at once attached to Workman'*
wif*, who had the reputation of txuiig a
high-truip*rrd woman, and alio wait
*r*aU)d. Hiibweourut investigation
showed that Mr*. Workman had made
aft appointment to meet Mra. Hedges ;
that st*nlfling and ontcriea had been
heard itj the quarter where the meeting
oecurred • that Mr*. Workman had af
terward declared tlmt *he waa rtuned
to r life, nod requested prayar* fyr her
i*oul, though ahe had never before been
religiously inclined ; that there were
' bruise* on lier body, which allowed that
he had been in a tight; and that the
dre* she wore on the evening of the
munlcr had lieen hidden, and wheu
found waa o. iveeed with mnd, blissl, and
hair, the hair being the amine aa that of
tho murdered woman. In oue word,
the cirvumataaco# were a* ooucluaive as
circumstance* can be that Mr*. Hedgea
had been murdered by Mr*. Workman
in a fit of joalonsr.
The letter* which passed between the
Her. Mr. Workman and the muiden-d ,
nogiau, and which have since U-eu
anuie public, give evidence tiiat Mr*. |
Workman"* jealousy waa pretty well
foimdett. Mrs. Hedge* seems to have
been under stronger restraining infln
<ncea than her reverend lover, though {
her letter* dlaeloae that she waa tuore
strongly attached to hnuthauaht* should
have i*wu. Both parties concluded
Uieir lotthr* with prayer*. Unalloyed
'love and piety are strangely mixed up
in the freouent exchange of letter*, the
inference from which i* thaJL Workman
used Jit* lH>*itu>u Insecure the here of a
woman wim had no right to love him, |
and waa bevoud the age when such a
passion might be considered difficult to i
i cpresa. The oaae apiwar* to have been
oue ot a dangerous class, in which re- 1
ligioua intercourse ou the one aide and
hypocrisy >n the other either load to a 1
violation of moral rectitude or bring the
parties tipen very slippery ground.
The most daugerou* phase of the case, |
however, has bueii developed in lla- ac
tum of the Grain! Jury of Woodford
Goautv, in which the murder was com
mitted. In spite of the proof* that Mr*.
Workman w* the murderess *f Mrs
Hedges, the Grand Jury refused to dud
a bill of'indictment, and the guilty
woman ha* been released. This decis
ion was evidently a* much a surprise to
the people of Eureka, where tho murder
occurred, sa it will be wbcrwwr the his

The Rev. rharlea Veysey, sn eminent

in s letter to the London Index in favor

I There would necessarily Iws some dc
|M>ait, which one might call 'ashes' of
the dead; and these might be reverent
ly gathered and placed in s lawuitiful
urn or rase, to he disposed of according
I to the wishes of the survivor*. They
might easily be deposited in consecrated
places, in niches in the walls of churches,
or in mortuary chapels designvl for
their reception. This, too, be
accompauied by a religious scrviro ; so '
that the religious element is left tin- ;
tvuiehed by my revolutionary proposal.
The advantage* of all this to people uf j
highly wronght feeling* would be im- j

Jour feet of the turf, anil that ia not
guough to prevent the escape of the
moßt foul and pestilential gases. 1
know of ono old cemetery which is now
occupied by a cooperage, and which is
constantly "wet with stagnant water. AH
around it typhus fever is perpetually
raging. The danger would not be no
great if the bodies were buried with

of a loch fell out, carrying the tools ml

found that there was a yawning cavern
of unknown dimenaion*. whose bottom
no man had the cotfTage to find out.

paid for their work, and a number of
them were compelled to cease their la

ing thia requisite number of votes for
any una candidate, the next procedure
ia termed election by acceaa, which iaao

given to any cardinal to accede to the
vote of another by altering hit ticket

thia ia continued until one of the candi
