We wandered by the river side,
One sun-bright, breezy, summer day,
To watch the silent water glide
Far out Into the crystal bay.
I Well remember lay's attire,
her floating robe of 4 ttro blue,
The spray of blossoms front the brier
That bound her hair of golden lute.
The jaunty hat, the waymg plume,
The sweet, sad smite that hicath it played,
The zephyrs laden with perfume
Frotu llowery pqtlis, through which we
strayed.
\Ve stood beneath the,e same old trees—
Heaven bless thQin for the days gone by—
Her ringlets fluttered in the breeze,
. A. misty sadness filled her eye.
Shti breathed my name, her ear nest tone

"I love you Guy, and you alone ;
Remember this, where'er you go."
Ah who could doubt her pleading tears
It must be that her heart was true,
Though time has scattered weary year:,
Between me and the Joys 1 knew.
"Dear Guy, this day must be cur last;
For late has willed our paths apart;
Our tatme links not with the past,
For love can only bind the heart,"
I spoke no cruel word to mar
The transient glory of the day,
To cloud or dim the radiant star ;
So soon to pale, and fade away.
I stoppel ; she place:ll:er hand iii mine.
Her lips one Insolent touched my brow :
•'\Vhen time shall name thp, day, Lang Syne,

We paced at ttie elot,e of day,
A day to joy and sorrow it ea :
"God help you Guy ;" “God help you Hay ;
These Nrere the only word, we said.
And now, alone, beneath the vine

And live our . parting o'er again,
And constant to her last request,

DET.Eur VE'S EX rEr.TEN - c E-0031310 -
DORE VA;S:DERIALT - S UIIECK.
AbQut two yea=s ago, the authorities of
the City Ring. N, - ere thrown into great ex
citement by the discovery of a forgery of
which they Were the - victims, and - which
had been planned and executed with more
than usual skill and determination.
A check for ?75,e00, bearing the signa
ture of Commodore Vanderbilt, had been
presented and honored some two or three
months before, and no suspicion had tleen
awaked in tile minds of the cashiers. Sub
sequent inquiries prove beyond all doubt
that the check was forged, and it appear
ed certain that all clue to the perpetrators
of the crimes was hopelessly lost. The
matter was at once placed in the hands of
the Detective Police, and :dr. Elder, who
was at that time at Saratoga, was select
ed for time onerous duty.
It may not be uninteresting to recount
the methods selected with a view to the
detection of the offender, and to point
out how invariahly a criminal, however
skillful, leaves behind him sonic, slight
! trail, that can be followed up successfully
by a man of penetration and perseverance
Mr. Elder then, as soon as he received his
IsllllllllOllS, returned to New York, and
proceeded to the bank,where he had an in
terview with the managers, and inspected
the forged document. The signature was
imitated with a freedom and exactness
completely accounting, for the case with
which the check had been uttered, and
the general impression was, that it had
heen executed by some one thoroughly
conversant with the band writing of the
Commodore. In a ease of this descrip
tion the first suspected persons are usual
ly the clerks. But on this occasion the
greatest confidence was reposed in the
employees by the heads of the establish
ment. and they were unable to single out
any one whom they could for a moment
suspect of being guilty of such a transac
tion. Mr. Elder, however, for his own
satisfaction, examined all individually,
and the result of his examination was a
ennplete conviction of their entire lone
cnee. The next step was to discover if
possible, the personal appearance of the
man by whom the check had been present
ed. here again the difficulty seemed in
surmountable. Many weeks had elapsed.
many large cheeks had in the meantime
been presented in the same name, and the
memories of all were seemingly blank.
The question was, Had any check of the
Commodore's been presented by any one
not in the habit of presenting them? and
to this inquiry an answer was elicited.
One of the clerks recollected a man, short
stout, and elderly, whom he had never
seen before or since. whom had cashed a
check for a large amount some time be
fore, signed to the best of his belief by the
Commodore. This, undoubtedly impor
tant if true, was but a thread to rely on,
when it is considered that he who gave it
had been led up to the point by a series of
cross questions. It is by no means rare
fora man to assert his personal knowledge
of an event under these circumstances,
and to be convinced of the truth of his
statement, when in reality he is speaking
upon the authority of hearsay alone. This
fact was remembered, and there was
disposition to doubt the absolute accuracy
of the clerk's assertion. lle was, how
ever, very positive in adhering to it, and
added that his recollection of the man
was so vivid that he believed he could
produce a pen and ink sketch by which
he would be recognizable. He was as
good as his word. The sketch! was made
and handed over to Mr. Elder, in whose
possession it now remains. The original
of the portrait had driven to the bank in
a buggy drawn by a horse of great beauty
and an attempt was accordingly made to
discover by whom or to whom the horse
Lail been sold or hired. I t was almost
absurd to hope for any good result from
an inquiry based upon any such insufficient
data, and there appeared to be no other
way in which the mysterycould belucidaied
The horse and buggy were not traced, and
the question as to whether they were hired
or private property was unsolved: but the
man was identified by a livery-stable keep
er as one Livingstone, whom lie had pre
viously known, and who had disappeared
from the vicinity. lie was a married
man, and had a family. and his wife and
children had, at no distant date, been
subsisting on charity. It was plain that
he was not justified in driving a handsome
turnout when he was unable to support
his family; and the scent grew warmer.
The pen and ink sketch was also exhib
ited to Commodore Vanderbilt, but he
was not able to identify it although on
consideration lie said it reminded him
greatly of a man who had called upon
Lim a long while before, with a black
horse for sale, of ' , effect form, and pos
sessed of great speed. Ife had not bought
the animal, as lie did not at that time re
quire it, and he could not remember
whether or no the would be seller bad
given hint an address. if he did, he 'mist
assuredly had forgotten it; and made no
note of so trivia an occurrence, and had
never seen or heard of hint since. All this,
if not conclusive, tended to conform an
impression, which had been gradually
forming in the minds of the police, that
Livingstone was in some way or other in
terested in the horse-trade. lle enjoyed
the reputation of being an excellent judge
1 of horse-flesh; he had driven a inagnificent
horse in the city, and he had attempted
to sell one equally tine to Mr. Vanderbilt:
it was, therefore, in no wise improbable
that in horses he Would expend a consid
erable portion of his ill-gotten gains.
The next question was, ITad any sale of
horses taken place in New York, and if
so, by whom lad they been bought.? Tile
dealers were interrogated. and after some
delay, it was discovered that an elderly
gentleman, answering slightly to the de
scription of Liviustone, but giving the
name of Price, had bought several, and
had ordered them to be transmitted to
Buffalo. whither he was at once proceed
ing. Here, at last, was a positive clue.
and the detective did not hesitate an in
stant in taking his departure for the same
place. AS soon as he arrived he secured
the co-operation of the local police, and
instituted the most, searching . inquiries.
The chase was conducted with the utmost,
.caution in case any alarm should be given
'to the guilty party, and enable him to
make good his escape. But in spite of
every effort, the trail became fainter, and
the seekers began to think that their task
would have to be relinquished, at all
events for the present. At the moment
of the mystery seemed darker than ever,
it was ascertained that the horses par
' chased in New York had been forwarded
• from Bratio toChiGag,o, ht. companv with
a number of others purchased by a Mr.
Weech, who it, appeared, had also become
the owner of those bought by Mr. Price.
Mr. Weeeli, too, was a stout, elderly ma',
Thecoincidence was singular, and Mr:
Elder at once betook himself to Chicago.
Pere the old course was pursued, and
the horse-dealers were "interviewed" in
rotation, lint the fugitive was probably
contented with the purchases he had al
ready made, as no evidence was forthcom
ing of his having further increased his
stud. But saddles and bridles and other
furniture are wanted where horses are
numerous, and the police endeavored to
ascertain whether any large sale of these
articles had occurred lately. Yes an el
derly gentleman, who had purchased no
less them four farms about forty miles
from Chicago. had been buying a great
quantity of till kinds of horse-trappings,
to say nothing of ploughs and other agri
cultural implements. Ile was short, stout,
rather past middle age, and very much
like the sketch. Ile represented himself
as a man of independent property, who
was weary of a do-nothing state of exist
ence, mid had resolved to try his hand at
farming and the breeding of horses. Ile
very seldom came to town; but spent his
time in personally superintending the im
provements he was meditating. II is wire
and family were with him, and lived in
the house he had bought with the farms.
The description of the man and his
habits tallied so exactly with tin pre
conceived notions of the police, that they
felt as sure of their prey as if they had
Lim already in their clutches. It was re
solved to:pay a visit to this enterprising
gentleman-farmer, and mr. Elder pre
pared his papers, and put a warrant in
his pocket, for immediate execution.
should his surmise be correct. before
starting, for the farm, however, all doubt
was done away with. The g,entlemmis
whoever he was. had invariably paid
ready money. and Misname, if ever known.
had been forgotten by the majority of
those who dealt with him : but on the et e
of the departure from Chicago, the pen
and ink portrait was recognized as that
of "Mr. Livingstone" by a man who was
instructed to forward certain merehim
disc to him at his farm. So it was evi
dent that he had no suspicion of the
search after him, and had fearlessly re
sumed his real title.
Mr. Elder did not go alone, but pre
vailed on several of his acquaintances to
accompany him. They agreed to repre
sent themselves as a party of gentlemen
who had heard a great deal about tie im
provements introduced by :\lr. Living
stone, and were desirous of inspecting his
estate. (Personal disguise was unnecessa
ry. as Livingstone and Elder had never
met.) Arrived at their destination. tiny
went straight to the house, a large and
comfortable building, and asked for the
proprietor. Mr. Livingstone was not in
just then. but if the gentlemen would be
kind enough to walk down to the farm
yard he could be found somewhere about
the barns.
The figure which advanced to meet them
was instantly recognized by the detective.
so admirably had the memory of the clerk
served him in drawing t lie sketch.
.According to previous arrangemen t ,Mr.
Elder addressed him at. once by his real
name:
"110‘v do you do, I% r Livingstrole?

Although evidently startled, he did not
for a moment lose his presence of mind
but replied quickly:

"Then you will have tut excellent op
portunity of seeing it when you go there
with me. Yon are badly wanted, and I
have conic to fetch you."
"Wanted! what for?''
"Forgery; $73,000 on Commodore Van
derbilt."
And the detective, slipping his hand
into his pocket. produced a pair of hand
cuffs and advanced towards him.
The whole demeanor of the man altered.
"None of that George," ( he had caught
the 31:1111C from a whisper of one of the
others), `• hands off!" and he glanced
around for some means of escape.
Tie was quickly surrounded. however.
the handcuffs were adjusted on his wrists.

Then he again and more loudly protest
ed his entire innocence:
••What money 1 have is my own. You
will all suffer for this outrage oa a res
pectable man. I never was in New York
in my life. I inherited smile mono• not
long since, and bought this farm. that I
might have something to amuse me. I
tell yon, this all a mistake, and will he
sorry for it."
lie was taken to the house, accusing the
police of outrage violently all the tinss,
and promising to say nothing about the
insult if he were liberated at once. Of
course,not the slightest attention was paid
either to his prayers or threats, and when
at last lie became aware of the fact, lie
was silent. - When lin first caughit sight of
the handcuffs, a rapid movement of his
hand towards the breast of his coat indi
cated that lie carried some concealed wea
pons there. This suspicion u - us veil lied,
when lie was searched in his own house,
by the discovei y of a large slung-shift (a
lump of lead attached to a thick elastic
band), it fearful implement, that would
break whatever it struck. Ile made no
remark when the slang-shot was 11:11.11161
leant, but, on the search being resumed.
lie said that there was nothing else to be
found on him, and that nothing short of
foice could induce !dm to go to .'„%,""inv York.
Ile altered his opinion, however, t
lv, len asked to account for the finding
of ?10,000 itt bills, concealed on his per
and those bills this identieal bills paid
over the counter of the City Bank to -the
mall olio presented Comodore Vander
bilL's check. Denial after this was futile,
and he consented to accompany his captor
to this city. The process of identification
was easy, and the soi di..taet gentleman
of fortune stood revealed as the forger
Livingstone. Had it not been for the
money on him, it is quite possible, even
probable, that he would have escaped all
punishment; and had he not indulged his
well known taste for horse flesh, he might
have spent the remainder of his days in
quiet seclusion. At his trial it was stated
that no less than forty horses had been al
ready purchased by him, bysides all man
ner of suitable f urn i turelmplements,e tc.,
evidencing the depth of his knowledge on
the subject. His_ conviction was insured
from the moment of his capture, and he
is now undergoing a sentence of four
years and Mne months, imprisonment.
Whether his old tastes will reassert them
selves on Ids release, is a problem to be
solved; but it is scarcely creditable that
the short, elderly gentleman will have
another equally good opportunity of real ;
izing so large a sum. If. by chance. for
tune should so favor him, we can only
hope, for the sake of the public, that there
are many clerks in NeW York \VIIO are

that this was his first offence?"

PROBABLE FATE OF THE CITY OF BOSTON.
In Engineer writes to the _New York
Erening Post that the probable fate of the
City of Boston has been an encounter with
an iceberg. Ile assumes that tic captain,
being reasonably careful,would reduce the
speed of the ship upon noticing a depres
sion of the thermometer, indicating the
vicinity of icebergs, mut adds: Suppose.
then, that the speed hail been t educed to
ten knots an hour.and let us see with what
force the City of Boston would strike an
iceberg of sufficient magnitude to remain
practically immovable when tlie ship
struck it. The City of Boston probably
weighed 1,1190 taus: water in boilers say
tolls: passengers. baggage
tons. freight 9011 tons. making ill all . .!,ifou
tons. At a speed of ten knots an hour
she would move 17 feet iu ono second.
hich would give the vessel a immeentam
force with which she would strike, of 32-
Coo tolls, a force sufficient to crush in her
bows fur many feet. Besides this. let one
imagine for a momei it the effect upon pon
derable bodies partially secured tothe ves
sel. The vessel suddenly stiipped, boats,
masts. furniture, passengers, everything
about the vessel, would virtually be driven
ahead at a speed of seventeen feet a sec
:ma: the boilers would probably be liiosen
cd from their fastenings. the masts would
be broken Off, the boats would be c:uried
away, terror would prevail, which the
sl irieks of a !Trig]] ted ;Old wounded passen

sink immediately, no boats could be low
ered, no provision could he made to Save
a single person. Should she have taken
fire, there would at least have been short
time to lower boats and prepare rafts, on
which some would have remained proba
bly long enough to have been Picked up

the same route. The picture thus drawn
is a frightful one, but there is so much
ground to believe substantially correct.

P. RIDE WITH HER 8E.4.7j
Emmallalman had been sent by
her parents to a boarding school, quite a
distance from home, with instructions to
Miss Waldorn, the teacher, to keep a
strict watch over her. Emma had a beau,
however, whom she managed to keep up
it correspndence with, and it was at last
arranged that he should come and pass
off for her cousin, and take her out car
riage riding, under pretence that he was
taking her out to his father's a few miles
out in the country. Well. he came ac
cording to appointment, and, introducing
himself as Emnia's cousin, asked to take
her home to spend the afternoon. Miss
Waldron said she had not the slightest
objection; asked how far it was, and in
what direction: and told Emma to go and
get ready to ;4; - o. But when Emma WaS
dressed and ready to start, Miss 'Waldron
also came down, ready and dressed, and
said that. as their carriage was large
enough for three, she would go along part
of the way with them, and stop at a
friend's, who lived a short distance front
the uncle that Emma was going to see,
and they might stop for her• when they
came back at night. Of course they
could do no better than tell her they were
glad to have her go with them, although
they would be dull with her as a compan
ion. But they thought to make up for it
by having a nice sociable ride after Miss
Waldorn stopped at her friend's. So off
they started in line spirits; and when they
got two or three miles, they began to ex
pect that every house they came to would
be the one that Miss Wahlorn would stop
at. Est she did not stop at any. Finally
when they hind gone some live or six miles,
iss Waldorn sail she must have passed
the house by some mistake, for they had
certainly traveled twice as far as her
ft feud's house W;is from town. But, since
they had passed it. site would not trouble
them to turn back with her, but would go
ou with Emma to her uncle's, and just
stop one minute at her friend's as they
rune back. There was what you might
call a fix! And Emma and her beau could
do nothing but drive on, So on they
drove: but driving on didn't drive the•
trouble away. ..1t last when they had
gone eight or ten miles, EMIIIICS beau
said that the toad must have been changed
in some way, for he had undoubtedly
gone astray, and, as they had so far and
it was drawing late, they would not have
time to find the right way. So they went
back to town; and when Miss Waldorn
got out of the carriage, she told Emma's
beau that when he ascertained how the road
had been changed, she would be very hap
py to go along with Emma any Saturday
to spend an afternoon at her uncle's!

The Montgomery, Missouri, Standura
says: One of the most exciting scenes and
terrific encounters that it has ever been
our privilege to record, occurred at the
ford afar L'Outre Lick last week. The
facts, as we received them from an eye•
witness, are these: On last Saturday
even ing„Mr. Thos. Moore and a gentleman
by the name of Thompson, residing in
lower L'Outre township, were returning
home from Danville. and stopping at tilt
ford of L,Outre, proposed to take a bate
and water their horses. Mr. Moore was
riding a very fractious mustang Pony.
He started into the water witli her, and
when lie had ridden in to where the water
was deep enough to swim her, the pony
commenced rearing and plunging, and
finally succeeded in throwing Mr. Moore.
it the fall, Mr. Moore received an ugly
wound on his right ankle and foot from a
stroke of the forefoot of the pony, which
somewhat disabled him for a while. The
pony neared up with her forefeet entirely
out of Avater.made a dart at Moore, which
would have ended the light then and there.
had not Moore. quick as thought. darted
under her body. came out in her rear, and
made for the shore as fast as his arms and
legs would carry hint.
The pony sate him. and with the blood
running from her nostrils in her fury and
excitement, and the devil in her eye, she
wheeled and made another plunge at hint,
which was avoided by Moore diving under
the water and swimming some distance,
under the water. This time Moore reach
ed the bank in safety, but had no time to
allow the grass to grow antler his feet.
The pony teas after him inunediately,
and the exciting race took place on the
bank for the distance of about fifty yards.
when Moore was compelled to take to the
water again to save his bacon. lie seized
a stout club and jumped off the bank into
the deep water, the pony following. Ile
swam rapidly to :1 log lying apont midway
in the creek, and mounting it he gave the
pony a severe blow as she came up in her
pin suit.
This seemed to cool her c;:eited feelings,

DICMITS'S WILL
The subjoined extract from the Will of
Cluirles Dickens will be read with interest:
"1 desire that my name be inscribed in
plain English letters on my tomb. I con
jure my friends on no account to make
me a subject of any monument memorial.
or testimonial whatever. 1 rest my claim
to the remembrance of niy friends in their
experience of me in addition thereto. I
commit Joy sold to the mercy of God.
through Our Lord and :•-avior Jesus
Christ : and I exhort my dear children
humbly to try to guide themselves by the
teachings of the New Testament, in its
broad spirit. and to put no faith in any
man's narrow construction of its letter,
here or there."
That beautiful poem which is now tak
ing the rounds of the Press, entitled.
-Where is your boy at night?" it is sug
gested should be followed by - Where is
the old man at night ?" Not a bad idea.
THE -11 - incrs'Journal,of Pottsville, Pa..
having stated that there was a man in the
place who had been drunk for thirty-five
years, its editor says he has been called to
account by at least twenty different per
sons, who insist that the item was a per
sonal attack upon them. The man he
really referred to, the editor remarks. is
sharp enough to keep his month shut
about it, but keeps ou drinking just as if
not a word had been said."
