And we venture the prediction that it never will be excelled, for it proves to be exactly what all conditions and qualities of Feath ers, from entirely new to old and much worn 'need , eed to render them as perfect aaage, quality and condition will admit of their being made. The Cleansing is Done Entirely by Steam. No fire coming near the Feathers, consequently no pouibllity of burning, scorching, or otherwise luring them. By this process all moths are de stroyed and removed, the Feathers cleansed, the fibres relieved from their matted position, giving a bed an astonishing mrcease In bulk, often more than one-hall: also removing all disagreeable scent which Is so common to new. as well as old Feathers. In fact giving the appearance and es sential qualities of New Postilion', and reliev ing them from all liability to moths by the remov al of all gummy or glutinous matter from the quill. Our facilities are such, that by short no. tlix, we can take and return beds the same day, well dressed and ready for immediate use. We warrant entire satisfaction or make no charge. All persons, especially ladies, are invited to 81.11 and see the machine in operation, at Pax ton's store room, on Baltimore street, and Judge for themselves. airreathers called for and returned in town without extra chare.

I had not much capital, and so resolved to economize at first. In course of time I imagined the tidy brougham and the country house across the Mersey would certainly come; and one serene September evening, many years ago, I was walking up and down St., George's landing -stage building castles in the air, wopdering whether rents were high at New Brighton, and whether Kate would prefer a pony photon to a brougham. I am not sorry to add I still reside in a modest house up Edge Hill way, and that I come to business as Cresar went to Rome, according to Joe Miller, "summa diligentia," on the top of an omnibus. I was waiting for Mr. Moss Noses to return to his office in a street hard by.—call it Mersey street, and for the reason that Mr. Moss Moses had a furnished place to let which his advertisement called "two spa cious coutning-rooms, "—goodness knows I never counted much there in the shape .of coin; and I did not like the situation; nor the narrow, dark staircase; nor the look of the boy of Hebrew extraction who 'bawled "Cnbid," whest I knocked, and told me "Mr. Boses would be in at eight o'clock;" but twenty-five pounds a year was very cheap, so I told my young friend I would call at that time, and look at the Atountlng-rooms." How well I remember that night! The ferry-boats from the Cheshire shore glid ing along with their lights twinkling like glow-worms, the vast hull of the Great eastern just vunmer in she eitoyue, ww squared yards, and all ataut look of a seventy-four of the old school, showing black and distinct against the daffodil sky, and the lap of the swell against the under timbers of the stage—l was inclined to be sentimental; but Mr. Moss Moses claimed my attention, and once more I entered his office and found him awaiting me. He was a - little, fat, good-tempered Jew, who spoke decent English; and who, I afterwards found out, was constantly affirming in season, and out of season, that he was no descendant of Abraham. "Hullo, Brunton!" he cried, jumping from his chair. "My lad told me you'd been; where have you been these two months and more? Look here, old fellow, I've advertised your place; but you can have it on the old terms." "Some mistake, sir, I believe;" and I handed him a card bearing the inscription, "Charles Harker." He took it and held it to the gaslight, looked at the back, considered it endways, and then pondered over it upside down,— Then taking the candle his clerk had brought, held it close to my face. "If you are not disposed to proceed to ',business, I will bid you good night," said I, greatly annoyed at his manner. "It's him, and- it ain't him," he said aloud; "Carl never could look a man in the face as this one does. And yet I don't see my way through the features." "There is no necessity for you to trouble yourself about my features!" I exclaim ed, opening the dooi-,—‘ - good nigh " "Step, stop, my good sir , and n't be offen,d. It was a mistake. Isaac's mise, upon my honor." "All a bistake," echoed young Isaac. My Curiosity was excited, and, betides, I realli wanted the offices; and I there fore allowed myself to - be persuaded into mounting the narrow staircase, until we faoed a door bearing the name of Branton on it in white letters' and having the two upper panels glazed more, I should imag ine, to supply light to the staircase than for - admission of light to the office; Mr. Moss prOginced a key, and tuning td me with a good-natured smile, said, "I'd hive sworn you were Branton five minutes ago, ba ram sure now that I-was . wrong. Carl always swore as he came up stairs, and you haven't. It's Brunton's face all but the eyes, and I'd swear to the eyes anywhere.: That is, to the twinkle, of 'ens, you know." And he tudooked the door and invited me within. Walkingto a table on which he had placed the light , I took a chair, and pro duced my ,pocket-book. "Before we go further, Mr. Moss, let us quite understand each other. I have no wish to derive any benefit fromany *tw o m i .. B run t on may possess, and I am going to convince , youthat I am what I remnant myself to be. Be good enough to read that letter," It was c one from a merchant in the north, only received timt morning, and zo oo tk ok . ed circumstances which were sufticieut to settle any doubts as to my indentity. : ,hir. Moss read it, folded it up briskly, and presented it to me with a bow. "Bir, I apologize.

'Thu. are very much like ray last tenant, sir, that is all." "Very well; wow that matter is settled, let us look at the rooms." The lighted gas ahowed'me a large lite and very barely furnished. 'Theta wa s a large leather-covered table with a `Theirs, on it, four elmirs, an inkstand, and putt. idly Mari waste-paper basket, and that - ..

Would you like a safe? got one to spare down stairs and you shall have it, and a new mat for your feet,— there now,.—l hate haggling." "Let me see the other room, please." It was one which a person sitting at the table would have right opposite to him, and it had no door. "It was a clerk's of fice," Mr. Moss said, "and yen wanted your eye on suck chaps." I suggested that the principal might sometimes want privacy, whereupon he said "he had the door down stairs and it should be hung -at once if I wished it." But having no in tention of engaging a clerk at present I told him it was of no consequence. The room was about half the size of the outer one, and containela desk and stool. There was a large clot for coals and such like matters, and good allowance of dust and cobwebs all over. "I'll have it cleaned up to-morrow," said Mr. Moss. "It looks beautiful when clean, and you'll find the desk to be really Spanish mahogany." They would suit me well enough, and I told Mr, Moss so; paid him a quarter's rent in advance, and rose to depart. • "0, by the way, Mr. Moss," I exclaimed, a sudden thought striking me; "I will send a man to paint my name!in the door, and on the wall down stairs." "Very good, sir; I would do it at once if I were you. Carl was a loose flab, and if you delayed it until you got here you might Ile annoyed," • "How sot What was he?" "Take a cigar first, Mr. Harker, you'll find no better in Liverpool. Lord! how like him you do look when I don't see your eyes!" "And yet I have not been thought to re semble a loose fish before, Mr. Moss." "I didn't mean that. Have you never seen an ugly person resemble a very hand some. one ? I have many a time. Well, about Carl: he was here about two years, and call me a Jew if I could reckon him up. He used to come here about noon, and work up to eight or nine o'clock at night; but what business he worked it I could never find out. I know he had a big ledger, and two or three such books; but a big ledger won't maces business any more than a big carpet-bag will, and he always carried one. He would come and smoke a cigar with me now and then; but I never came up here during all that time, and he kept this door locked. He always seemed to be expecting a blow did poor Carl, more like a rat in a corner than anything else, poor beggar! Well, sir, one morning I found the key on my mat, and found the place just as you see it, and have never seen Carl since. One or two queer-looking men have inquired about him, and asked if be was coming back, and. I said most likely he would, and likely enough he will " UOUSZ. "Not at all an interesting story," I thought, and I felt inclined to yawn in Mr. Moss' face; but I thanked him for his inforniaticm, and promised to take posses sion in three days, which I spent in pre senting my letters of introduction, and making other arrangements for the prose cution of my plans. At length the eventful day arrived, and I stood in my own once, with my name ...blazoned on the door and postage wall. I was waiting for a friend to cal on me (who, by the way, had promised to put me in the way of doing vile badness that very day,) and felt impatient for his arrival in consequence. The office was clean and tidy, and the floors had been well scrubbed. Why hadn't they emptied the waste piper basket of all that lumber? The office keeper had lighted a fire, and I took up the basket to perform the opera tion myself; but from some cause or other I placed it on the table and began idly to burn the scraps one by one. I had nearly disposed of them all' when a scrap attracted my attention and I read it. It was torn so as to leave a few words intact, and it ran thus: Louise has given your description, and you may rely on our finding you. For ward the plates at once, or—" Then another piece of mysterious paper, aPPerently a plan of some place or other. - What did this mean? But I had no time to consider, for my friend entered, and putting the two pieces of paper in my drawer, I emptied the basket in the fire, and went out with him to do a good day's work. Returning late in the evening, I relit the fire, and addressed myself to the writing of two important letters to be pouted by 11.80 that night, in order to be in time for the Cunard liner, which sailed early in the morning; and then it was the black dark, nem of the doorlees room opposite to me began to trouble me most, It had troubled me before, but on this night it trembled me tenfold. From child hood I have been imaginative, and .know ing this, I stirred the fire, called myself an ass, and went on with .my letter. But not for long. My eyes wandered to the black darkness of the doorway, and I be gan to ransack my memory for Statistics of men who could tell by some occult pow- er if any one were hidden in the room they ' entered; and I huighed aloud when I re membered that I had read of one sensitive gentleman, who by this same occult sense had found that a surgism's skeleton was in a closet beldind him. I own I dislike being in the dark,' but I will do myself the justice to say that I have resolution enough to overcome the dislike. Therefore I proposed to myself to very quietly walk into the dark room 'which troubled me (and without a light,) look ' out of the windows, and slowly return. I went—the very first step beyond the threshold dispelled my fears. I could see the glimmer of theaters through the glass, hear the rattle of the cabs ontaldir. Why, it was -quite a -cheerful pima, after all! Hal them was a ahldithufnoise there by the closet, and then my feat returned and overpowered me. I Meows 'to Walk out like a tingedybern; lmt my paee tinickstied /4,1 neared the door, and heard the shuf fling ache close to noe,and the next moment ,a powerful band 'pax it my 'throat, and kuilpleas an the or wtth . the eobi muzzle of a -pistol .`p to my head, X• Alas bound and dragged into the outer ciMoe, thrust into my chair and confronted by two quiet-looking men, one of whom laid Idavevolver on the table, in leag et the MUD Wide with an ugly meet, "Bo Brun ton, we have caught you at last.'!

"We have fousskrts: I am thankful to say thit I sin hot vows when I ue a danger, and I boldly re plied. "My name is Harker and not Brunton; Mr. Moss, 'the landlord of these premises, has noticed my resemblance to his late tenant, and is satisfied that I am not the same. Depend upon it that I shall make you repent this outrage." I tried to rise to call for help from the street, but the pistol was cocked and point ed at me, and there was that in the man's face which cautioned me against rashness in my helpless position. "I will sit down," I replied, "and hear what you have to say; but if 1 choose to do It I shall do my best to raise an alarm in spite of your revolver." "Vell spoke, Carl." said, the foreigner; "Louise always say he a pluciy one." "Now, then, Brunton," whispered the other, ."let us have no nonsense. We have not met before, it is true, but Louise has so well described you, that putting an other name on your door was simply idiotic. Besides one of ours has watched for your return, and we communicated with hinvdirectly after we landed. Go free if you like, but we roill lune the plates." "Hat's the matter vid us," echoed the German; "ve vill have the plates." "I know nothing of any plates," I cried, "nor of Louise, nor of you. All I know is, that you will see the inside of a prison very shortly." "And you think you can throw us, throw ya over in this wayl Do you think you deal with children?" "I think I deal with a burglar. Most certainly .with a rascal of some sort or other." Here my two friends held a whispered conference. Then he of the revolver turn ed sharply towards me. "Will you marry Louise? Will you give up the plates, and marry my sister ?" "She lofe you like old boots," added the German; and from which I opine that 'he prided himself on a knowledge of English idiom. In spite of my serious position I was getting thoroughly amused. The dark doorway held unknown terrors to my ex cited imagination; but two common-place fellows who had made a mistake only caused a feeling of merriment, even in spite of the revolver. "I am sorry I cannot oblige you," I replied. "I am flattered by the lady's preference; but having one wife already, I fear I must decline taking a second; and as for the plates, please explain what you mean." The answer to this flippant spewoh was a blow on the face, which sent the blood streaming on the floor. "You'll remember insulting the sister of Louis Orlon? Jlere, Baron, let us gag him, and search; he will be rabring an I al arm presently." They thrust a piece of rope between my teeth, compressing my windpipe to make me open my mouth; and there I nit help less whilst they turned out the contents of my desk and drawers, not forgetting my cash-box, which was opened with a key taken from my waist-coat pocket, and the contents appropriated. Knowing that the two scraps of paper I had found in the waste-paper basket, placed in my drawer,- must refer to their visit. I watched very am:lonely when they opened it. But they escaped notice, and I felt that I had got some clew to the mystery, even if these men escaped; and I had quite determined that they should not escape, for I was in securely hound, and had been working hard to get My right hand free, and, thanks to having a very narrow one, I now found myself able to slip it through the loop which encircled the wrist; but I "bided my time," for I saw that a false move might bring a bullet through my head. "De- plates is in ze oder room, Carl Brunton, mon ami," said the Baron, smil ing, and patting my shoulder. "Vy not say? Vy shoal-we you? You do dem so well, ve no get any like dem. And you use dem yourself, and den, AchGott; you upset de cart of de apple," \ "Yes," I thought; "and it's odd to me if I don't upset your cart of de apple be fore long." "In dare; in back room?" asked the Baron, with another amiable smile. I said, "Yes," with my eyes. "Elee now, my Louis, you were too rough. You into him pitch like dam, So see him amiable." Then to me,— "And you will marry Louise, who lofe you like old boots I" My other hand was free now. I tried to speak, and implored with my eyes for the gag to be removed. The Baron removed it, and while doing so I resolved on a plan of operations. "You will marry Louise and give us the plates ?" "I will give you every satisfaction." "That is business," said Louis Orloff, coming forward.- "Ph* the plates.— Then you return with us to New York, and keep your proinisiS to Louise. Why give us this trouble? I tell you frankly that the expense will be deducted from your share, and that you wM 'bp strictly watched in future. I should haye cut your throat but for my promise to Louise.— Now,:where are the plates?" "Look in the closet in the next room; rake ont the coals, and take what yon find." "Good. Come, Baron." And they left me to operate on the coals. Springing up, I seized the revolver, darted to the door, and in a moment had locked them in. But my triumph was of abort duration; for Orloff was on the other side like lightning, the rotten woodwork tore out under his vigorous wrench, and his hand was on my throat before I could grope my way to the stairs, ' • Then I knew that life depended' on the struggle, and I fought like one poasessed for the revolver. The Baron came to bii •friend's help; but I found time and op porinwity to send him reeling to the groind. torkeff was the weaker man, but he outdid me in MB; and $ dexterous feint threw me ofrmy guard, leaving the rervolver in his hands. Purple with passion, he fired instantly, and I felt a sharp sting in my left shoal. der; and then all earthly things seemed to be fading away, and a world beyond open ing to view. linen I recovered, I found myself laid on a matron on the office table, and my wife teariWly lamdbrg over me. There was a calm-faced surgeon, too, who show ed me the ball be had extracted, - and told me to cheer up, thr I should be better in a few days, for no damage was done.

"Will you kindly show me those Owes of paps,"?" he said, aivancing. "I have the men in Mr. Moss's office; but beyond the assault on you I have no evidence against them; but I know them well." "I produced them, and the inspector fastened on the one which seemed to be a plan, then looking around said,— "This is a plan of your office." "Call me a Jew if it ain't!" exclaimed Mr. Moss, taking it. "Yes, it is certainly a plan of your of fice. See, here is the doorway, and there comes the other room. Then there is a cross against the fireplace in this room, on what I judge from the lines to mean the fourth board from the hearthstone, and another cross against the sixth form the hearthstone in the other room. Get a crowbar, Mr. Moss." "There's one down stairs." I do believe that if you'd asked for a crocodile he would have got one • "down stairs." Crowbar and a policeman to wield it were soon produced, and then the mys tery was unravelled. Close to where I sat were unearthed several copper plates for the forging of Russian rouble notes of various amounts; and in the back room, under the flooring, were found several hundreds of well-ex ecuted forgeries carefully soldered up in a tin case, together with correspondence im plicating Orlorff and tlie Baron. It ap peared that Brunton was engaged by a New, York-gang to engrave the plates, and that be had never seen his employers, the agent between them being the Louise before mentioned, whose fair.-hand I bad been compelled to decline. Brunton had evidently become frightened, and had fled. He was no traitor, or he would have de camped with the plates. Perhaps the dread of having to espouse Louise may :have had to do with his flight. She was a very handsome woman, if I may judge from a photograph of her found in the tin case, but looked like one accustomed to rule, and who would not hesitate to ad minister wholesome correction to her spouse, Assisted into a carriage which was wait ing, I had the satisfaction of seeing the Baron and Orlorff brought down in hand cuffs, the Baron regarding me with a sweet smile, and Orloff scowling on me like a fiend. I did not prosecute, for they were so well known to the police as forgers that there was evidence enough for the Russian Embassy to procure a conviction and a sentence of ten years' penal servitude; and in due time I recovered, and dismissed the matter from my mind. But I had not heard the last of it.— About twelve months after the trial and condemnation of the Baron and his friend there came one night a timid knock at my office door, and my clerk (for I had such a luxury then) nahered in what, at first sight, seemed to be a moviag bundle of raga.— Strictly speaking, the bundle of rags in, sisted on seeing me, and ushered itself in, spite of all re It came and stood befisre me, and resolv- F ed itself into the reoembrance of a' man, —a man lean, haggard, sunken-eyed, rag ged, and dirty, but with a face something like my own; and without putting a ques tion, I knew that I stood face to face with Carl Brunton, and I addressed the rags by that name. "1.,t00k that name," the poor, shivering things replied, "but n3y name is—but. no matter. May I speak to you?" "Yes, go on." "Will you give me some drink first? I have had none to-day, and I feel delirium tremens coming on. 0, howfoold it is, and how I shiver!" I sent the clerk for some brandy, which he took raw, and with shaking hand held out the glass for more. "I imagine it is Mr. Moss you want to see, is it not? If so, you will find him to morrow,. at ten o'clock." "No, no, you, you I want—l—l am very poor. Will you give me a six-pence?" I gave hint half a crown, "Now what can I do for you?" "I—l left some property here when I went away. You won't refuse to give it I up? I seem poor, but I am rich—ah! so rich!—and I will pay you well,", t "You mean the forged rouble-notes and the plate you engraved them from?" "Ahl Who told you that?'. Then you have found them, and used them? I ran away from them, and wished to lead a better life, but they drew me back; and now you have robbed me, and I shall starve." I explained to the poor wretch what had become of his possessions, and how they were 'found, and inquired if he had not heard of the fate of his accomplices. "No; I have been wandering about the country, living in hospitals and work houses, because they hunt me down from place to place. They will kill itta as they killed the Posen Jew and the engraver at Stockholm, all because they demanded a fair share. They are dogging me to-night - 7 -one of them is outside now. Let me see, what did I come here for? 0, six pence. Lend me sixpence; I'll give you a liandred pounds for it to-morrow." I made a further donation, and, as the Man was evidently in a state of delirium, I told my clerk to fetch a medical man. r But before he could execute the order, the bun dle of rags crept down the narrow stairs, sitting on each step, and wriggling by aid of his hands to the next below, whilst we, unable to pass him, looked on, wondering how it would all end The street iptined, he stood upright, and casting a terrified glance around, fled away into the darkness, and ire, following In the direction he had taken learned shortly af tervranu that a beggar had thrown himself into the Mersey from St. George's land ing-stage, and had sunk to rise no more. His body was never found,"and, I, hay. lag had enough of Mersey street, moved Toy quarters, much to the regret of Mr, i Moss, for, quoth he, 'Two of 'em axe at Portland, and another at the bottom of the river; so you may call me a Jew if any one troubles you again." But I went; and the office is still without a tenant, and I shudder when I pass through the street at night, and looking up, see the two black shining windows, like two great eyes watohingme, and fancy I Can see a shadowy form in rags, pressing its face to the glass, and gibbering and mOwiniat the busy stream of human life which antes to and fro forever.

"And," continued he, "the funniest part of the whole thing was, that while. the plow was on the top of one hill, theoke of oxen was on the top of another and the forty-nine between the plow and the leaders were suspended between the two hills! And there was another matter connected with it rather strange. In the course of the day the plowmen, becoming rather careless about driving the team, ran into and split a big oak stump!
