They hpfb the ciiaroctcf df rt plodding, taciturn, morosa mannered couple ; seldom leaving tho firm except In attend market,' and rarely seen at church Or cllrfpcf; they naturally enough become objet’U of suspicion and dislike to the pf|h»g, gossiping villagers, to whom mystery or reserve of any, kind was ofcoursacx* I fcccdingiy annoying and unpleasant. * - I after Armstrong was titled In .his ne\V phf-' blf'teofnriothcf slfnbgcr nrfl vcH f nfttf tfmk nobis abode in-lho best nparimcnlsof the house; The how comet; I a man about fifty years of age, and evidently, from his.drcss and gait,‘a seafaring person, was ns ruserv-.j cd ond unsocial,as his landlord, UU namc,of *it least 1 tljotiw.liicli liQ chose to,bo known byiwas Wilson.-r* Ho had ono child, a daughter, about thirteen years I or.age;*.tyli.h)n>h9,|ilsded. til,a hording school in the iiJjiiccnt town; He seldom saw her},tho inter cmirsq between tho .father and daughter being prln< narfictl dn through Mary Slrug'uell, a widow abouUhirly,yours of-ngc, and ft'ndtlvo of tile place.

Still ntf answer was obtained. Mrs. Slrngtiol), It was supposed, had not returned from town; but where was Mr. Wilson, who was almost always at home, both day and night 7 Presontly a lad culled out that n white sheet or cloth bf some sort was hanging out of ono of tho back Windows. This announcement, confirming the vague apprehensions which had begun to germinate in the wise heads of, the villagers, disposed them to adopt a_moro effectual mode of obtaining admission than knocking seemed likely lb prpfp. Johnson, tho con stable of tho pariah, a. man of grout shrewdness, at once proposed lb.break In the door. Armstrong, who ns well as his wife, was deadly pain, and trembling violently, either with cold or agitation, hesitatingly consented, and crowbars being speedily procured,on entrance was forced, and in rushed a score of cxei led men. .Armstrong’s wife, It was remembered, «nughl hold of her husband’s nrm In a hurried, frightened manner, whispered hastily in his oar, and then both followed into the house. . * % Now, farmer,” cried Johnson, ns soon.as lie had procured a light, 11 lead (ho wny up stairs. 0 Armstrong, who appeared to have somewhat reeov. crod from hit pnniu, darted at once up the staircase, followed by the whole body of rustics. On reaching the landing place, lid knocked at Mr. Wilson’s bed* room door. No answer was returned. Armstrong seemed to hesitate, but the constable; at once lifted tha latch; (hoy entered, and then a melancholy spec* Ucfo presented itself. Wilson, completely dressed, lay extended on the floor a lifeless corpse. He had been stabbed in two places in the breast with some sharp pointed instru* mcnl. Life was quite extinct. The window was open. On further inspection, several bundles con* (nining many of WilsnnVvaluablca in jewellery and plate, together .with cloths,shirts, silk handkerchiefs wore found.. The wardrobe nhd a secretary bureau had boon forced open. The assassins hod It seemed,, boon disturbed, and had hurried off by the window without their plunder. A hat was also picked up in (ho room, a shiny black hat, much too small for (ho deceased. The constable picked it od (o clap It, on Armstrong’s head, but it was nut near largo enough. This together with the bundles, dissipated' a suspicion which had been growing in Johnson’s mind, and he roughly exclaimed. ‘•You not look so scared, farmer; it’s not you; that’s quite clear.” To this remark neither Armstrong nor his wife lahsworbd-a syllabic,-'lmt Continued, to'guze at the j corpse, the bundles, and tho-Brbkbn locks, in bewil*, derod terror and astonishment... Presently some ono a&ked ir.'anybody had seen Mrs. Strughell 1 _i i : The question roused Armstrong, and he said, 1 •’ .•'She is noi como bblhc| her door is locked.’* 1 "How do you know (hat 7V-cried the constable, turning sharply around, and looking keenly in his /ucei, •“ How do you know that ; “ Because—becausoj” alamfhbrcd Armstrong, “80.

In an Instant the 'frail, door' was burst in, and Mrs, Slrugnell wfts so'ori polled out, apparently mure dead than alive, from underneath the bedstead, where shfcj in speechless consternation,.lay partially concealed. Placing her in a chair, they soon succeeded—much more ciisily, indeed, than they anticipated—in resto ring her to consciousness. ■ .Nervously sho glanced round the rude circle of eager faces that environed her, till her eyes fell upon Armstrong and his wife, when she gave a loud shriek, and muttering, “They, they are tlio murderers,” swooned, or appeared to do ro, again instantly. ' “ s Thc accused persons, in spile of : lhcir ; frenzied protestations ofjnnoccnco, wore instantly Seized and taken ofT lo a place of securlety; Mrs. Slrugnell was convoyed to a ..neighbor's close by; the’ house was carcfullysccurcd ; and the agitated and wondering villagers departed to their several homes, but not 1 fancy, to sleep any more that night. made by Mrs. Strugncll at the In* quest on the body, was in substance as, follows: ■ “pn the afternoon in question alio Had, in accor dance with the usual -custom, proccedcd- to town.— She called on her aunt, took tea with her, and after tVhrd went to the Independent Chapel. After ser vice, she culled on Miss Wilson, 1 but was informed that, in consequence of n severe cold,the young lady wag gone t° bed.

She could not catch what answer was made; but hy Armstrong's reply, she gathered that Mr. Wilson hud laid down, and did not wish to bo disturbed. He was often lh the habit of lying down with his clothes on. Armstrong said, ‘,*l will hot disturb yob| air; I'll only just.put this parcel on the tablo.” I here Is ho lode to, Mr. Wilson’s door.
