THE WOlSRpP HUB.
Oa tie 22d of Mr, 185, 1 etccd
ia oar office, behind our desk, when
our chief entered the room withe
letter ia his band, and addressed me
with an invitation to undertake the
unraveling of a mystery which had
baffled the local police of T. I
consented, and departed for the scene
of the crime which had been commit
ted, much limited, however, as to the
time I wa atlowd lor Fpcnd:ng a
the case
Two hundred and fifij thousand
m.rtt v. ri htn stolen from tie wid
ow of a well connected man named
Friedow. Her villa stood outside
the gateB of a email town, and the
lost property consisted chiefly in cou
pons and such valuables.togethcr with
a little coin. Her habit was to keep
all papers of importance, as well as
money, ia a cheat of drawers beside
Ler bed. Her sleeping room was
situated on the first floor, and had
but one window, which looked ont
upon the vard. Her confidential
friends had otten advised Frau Frie
dow to keep Ler gold at least in some
earer place, but fcbe bad always re
sisted such counsel, and put no faith
in banks and bankers. As to the safe,
she had averred that if robbers did
ever molest ber, unkfs her trusty
dog and her faithful Frederick, who
was ber factotum and the only male
person upon her little property, could
not protect ber, an iron box would
avail little beyond delaying thieves
in laying hold of what ever they
wanted.
On the night of the 7th of May the
poor lady was suddenly awakened
about 12 o'clock. Her room was il
luminated. Before ber bed stood a
small, thin man. with a lantern in
fcia 1p(Y kind and a hatchet in bis
richt.
In a rough, disguised voice be
threatened to knock out her brains if
she so much as ventured to utter a
8 3un& Tte unfortunate Frau was
already voiceless from alarm. This
speech could scarcely make ber more
quiet, but ebe could use her eyes, and
she did so lor the next few secoad3
while her visitors remained with her.
She saw that the speaker wore Hack
hose, a blue blouse and a m&tk: :J
that two more men were busy io the
background, breaking open her chest
of drawers. In the farthest back di
vision, covered over by stockings,
yarn and flax, lay a round tin case,
ia which she kept ler movable treas
ure. She was just recovering ber
Bslf sufficiently to begin thinking
about risking her life by calling for
help, when the smothered yelling cf
a dog was heard without. The rob
bers had found what they wanted,
and sprang with it to the window,
one Bash of which was open. They
threw themselves on a ladder with
out and descended to the ground,
while the third man stiU kept guard
deside the bed. Frau cried "he!p,
belp !" with all her might.
" You may scream as long as you
like, now," he muttered, then turn
ing away aud following the others
from the room.
Frederick appeared at this instant,
having been awakened by the noise.
He found the ladder still in its place,
and below, was just in time to save
the life of the house-dog, which had
been almost choked by a cord twisted
round his neck fastening bim in his
kennel. The man-servant roused up
the neighbors, but all pursuit,' then or
later, by friends privately or by the
police publicly bad been ia vaia.
Not the least clue had hitherto been
obtained as to the identity of the
house breakers.
This vai bow ; the matter stood
when I arrived at T When
I bad privately communicated with
the magistrates, my Becond visit was
naturally paid to Frau Friedow. I
sought everywhere for any special
indications which might put me on
the right track, but what I found
wfcB desperately little. Like those
who bad gone before me, I concluded
that the robbery had, at any rate,
been accomplished by persons well
acquainted with the locality, as en
trance to the premises bad been made
by a small door in the yard, oi toe
very existence of which many of the
neighbors were unaware. A pane of
glass lad been smashed in the win
dow of the bedroom to enable one cf
the assailants to slip back the bolt.
A few footprints bad been traced, but
there was nothing remarkable about
their appearances, and they had been
lost at once npon the high road or
street upon which the little court
yard opened.
One thing seemed alone certain
amid the amaze of perplexity ; the
house-breakers must be Bought frem
among neighbors, servants, friends or
relatietB. Now the neighbor theory,
BDon investigation, seemed utterly
futile, and one glance at old Freder
ick was enough to make one dismiss
11 thooehts connected with the sec
ond term in the list.
There remained the friends and re
lations in the habit of visiting at the
villa. The widow had not the faint
est suspicion of foul play in any of
these ; nevertheless, I made her de
scribe and closely particularize them
to me. I took cp half a dozen imag
inery scents ; I ran hither and thith
er ; I telegraphed in various direc
tions. I worked, in fact, in the sweat
of my brow ; but, alas ! the result was
eimply nothing, nothing, nothing,
nothing. I never before had been
b utterly puzzled and hopelessly at
fault
On the fourth day of my residence
at T I went again to the villa,
where the widow greeted me with
eyes full of expectation. "Fran Frie
dow," I said, "It seems to me hardly
possible that yon are utterly without
suspicion in any quarter. There must
surely be some one or other on whom
our mind has fixed, if it were but
for a second. Confess it is so, and
confide in me."
"I assure you I have not a shad
owy thought Euch as you describe,"
she replied, in a much disappointed
tone.
"And has nothing more struck you
about these men you saw in your
room than yon have already men
tioned ! One remembers things on
due consideration which have been
often ovetloeked before. Did yon
notice no peculiarity about any of the
scoundrels, in the voice, for instance,
the war of standing, the bands of
bim who held the axe? Had be on
a ring? Vii be look rough, like the
others?"
"There was one little thing I may
sot have told before," she replied,
slowly "I w" scarce worth tel-
linir. When the two fellows ran off
down the ladder with my little case,
the window slipped down as they
disappeared. The third man pushed
it up again to go after them, bat in
so doing I think be must have put
bis hand through the broken pane,
and have hurt it in his baste. I cer
tainly beard bim mutter to bimself.aa
if be were in distress."
"Was there no trace of blood left?"
1 asked, anxiously.
"Son whatever."
I began my investigation anew,
and this time with the doctor of the
district. "'

degrees I acquired the, to me, very
intcrcstiug fact that some three wetks
since, when the medico was riding
home to breakfast after an early call,
a strange man had suddenly appear

He complaiced ol having fallen
opoa a heap ol broken glass, and
held out Lis right band to exhibit its
condition. The doctor t ok out his

traded nvc piece irom too iuuiucu

whimpered like a woman.
"How was the fellow dressed ?" I
cried.
"A blue blouse and black under
clothes, a? far as I can recall." '
"Could you identify him again ?"
"Perhaps. His face made an im
pression on me rather ; beeanse It
did not seem to match the clothing,
and yet, now I think of it,I seem to
see only an ordinary brow, nose and
mouth. I fancy it was the set of the
head upon the shoulders which lock

folks usuallv look otherwise. That
is all I can "say. Bat what makes
the matter interesting to you?"
"I believe your complaining pa

have come down here," I replied ia

"Can you give me any idea us to
what bscaine of the maa after you
were done with bim ?"
The doctor looked at me in amazs
meat. "I think he went toward Ems," he
replied.
I lost no time in going the same
direction. An old tree, which fork
ed at the top, and carried a bell in
that division, stood on a height near
the shore. Here those who wanted
to be ferried over the river must stop
and ring for the boatman, whose cab
in stood in a sheltered nook at hand.
I shirked preliminanV, and made at
once for the dwelling.
H re I found a eieantic person,
who declared herself the daughter of
the ferryman, and the customary
rower when, as now, her father was
absent. I thought to gain the confi
dence of this damsel.
"A friend of mine went over here,
I think, not long since," I said. He
was in great haste, being on his way
to London, in order to escape serv.
ing here in the army."
The noDUlar antipatcy to ice en

It
to

where to be followed. I labored

I made friends with all sorts of peo
pleletter carriers, porters, waiters,
aud walked many a weary mile in
the hot sun, but all to no purpose.
I was baffled and wholly at fault as
much as though I never had had a
hint at all to follow.
Nine days had gone by since I bad
come to T
I turned into a beer garden in the
neighborhood of the town one even
ing, and eat down near a well light
ed bowling alley, ia which about ten
gentlemen were busy at a game.
My seat was rather in the shade. I
paid little attention to the players

which I should be held for sake of it,

feelinc altogether extremely out f
humor. Suddenly an ill-thrown ball
rolled almost to my feet.
"A miss, a miss !" shouted several
voices together, while one cried.
"Why, Botcher, is your band not
even yet recovered ? You are not
complaining of it still ?"
I felt like a huntsman in the forest
who Bees the game at bis gun's end.
I was on the alert that second. I
lost no time in finding out all Herr
Botcher's antecedents. He was a
merchant, one of I- ran t nedow's
connections, and an occasional visit
or at her bouse.
He was a continual guest at this
place of entertainment I brought
the doctor here next evening, and set
bim to work stealthily considering
my game. ,
My discomfiture was great when
be flatly refused to Identify Herr
Botcher and his patient as one and
the 6a me person. They might be
one, be confessed ; but then they
might not
If the midico turned rusty, like
this, it seemed to me utterly useless
to bring bither the ferry woman on a
like errand. I must trust to myself
alone. : We officials have two meth
ods of doing business of this sort
We use the long cr short line, ac
cording as either seem most like to
suit I determined to try one after
the other.
In order to put Botcher ; entirely
off the scent, I went now to the boat
of this bouse of entertainment and in
troduced myself as a Hambirg agent I
for the forbidden lotteries. I begged
t - 1 . L : 1 . I.... T r l,v
Lim to keep this close ; but I saw by
bis face that be intended t) do noth
inc of tho sort. Next morning to
my great contentment, I found my
self outwardly under the supervision
of the town police and generally re
garded by the public as a shabby in
dividual. I meantime was as busy as ever,
but it was little I discovered. Herr
Botcher was certainly not in good
renute among his fellows, never
theless, I coma near oi no particular; ,
difficulty in which he bad fallen of i
late, although I did hear that three
weeks 6ince be made a hasty journey.
One little fact, however, seemed to
me of great worth ; Herr Botcher,
these times, slept badly, and was
wont to rise cr.ea by night and pace
up and down tSe garden.
I lay lurkioj. for two entire nights
nnflr'hnahea iii this same plot: but
during all these weary hours whoev
er did come to this place, Herr Botch
er did not. and ia the garden I found
no trace of any bidden treasures or
likelihood of such.
; I fell into greater despair than be
fore. What could I do? Upon one
tide my absolute certainty of having
tracked my man ; on the other, no
earthly means of bringing borne his
guilt. If I only had sufficient ground
io demand a search of tbe rascal's
bouse ! but I have not. One afte'
noon I was walking up and down my
room considering, when the post
brought me a brief bat concise and
decisive dispatch from my chief:

"Bv Bieht. only."
"He will help me to indeutify the

acain into my companion's face
which took a horrible tint and expro
sion now.
"Can he do so?"
"Certainly. He saw the man,
dresed like a day laborer, tbe morning
after the robbery was effected."
"Who was the ruffian ?" Botcher
asked, breathlessly.
"His name is Ebbing I think,"
I answered at haphazard.
"I don't know him, was the reply
to this.
"I daresay," I said; "he only
comes here at times."
I rose now broke of my conversa
tion and departed, having shaken
Botcher by the hand. 1 wentstealthi
ly to the bouse and waited. I bad been
there but a quarter of an hour wbea
a trap dashed up to tbe door. Botcher
sprang out of it, went inside lot a lew

ing something under his left arm.
As he got upon one side of tbe ve

seized bold of my game. He made
not the slightest resistance, but eat
like one enchanted.

bachelor to assume." .
"I suppose so," was the reply, "but
I could not refuse tbe djing ' request
of a friend." - '
"At first I entertained hopes that
she would improve by remaining
with us," Baid Mrs Delmayne, plain
tively, "but she is wilder than ever.

vous excitement, lor 1 never snow
what madcap prauks she will play
next. I thought it disgraceful enough
when she dooned a suit of Dick's
clothes and went out on the oigbt tt
tbe skating-party, but this last is still
worse, if possible."
Mrs. Delruavne folded ber plump
white hands and settled herself com
fortably in a luxurious easy chair,
and prepared to enjoy her favorite
pastime, which consisted of retailing
Dorothea's misdemeanors.
"You know Squire Ponsonby has
been looking for a wife for a year or
two now he ia quite wealthy, is
respectably connected, and would be
very suitable match lor Dora.
"Squire Ponsonby!" gasped Rich
ard, ia amazement, "he is old enough
to be her grandfather, and has a mar
ried daughter who must be consider
ably older than Dot"
Well, Dora needs a husband wno
is steady and sober-minded, she is so
flighty herself. Besides, he looks
fully ten years younger than Lis real
age. In my opinion it woold oe a
very suitable match. Bat it is all
over now," she added, with a tigb,
"he will never enter into this house
again." .
In answer to llicbard'a look of in
quiry Mrs. Delmayne continued
"1 invited Mr. 1'onsonoy to tea
las', evening I had my household
duties to attend to after tea was over,
so 1 left Dorothea to entertain him.
She must have neglected bim shame
fully, for the poor man fell asleep,

jokes. She actually bad tbe audacity

ought to be told about it."
' Ila, ba, ha!" laughed Kicaard.
'I can imagine bow ridiculous he
must have looked, strutting along in
bis pompous manner."
1 am certamlv astonished at you,
Richard," said Mrs. Delmayne, se
verely. "I hope you don't uphold
the girl in her disgraceful deport
ment?" I shall of course reprove ber." be
replied. "Dot will improve as the
grows older, I have no doubt ; she is
merry and thoughtless now, but l
think she will develop into a splendid
woman "
Mrs. Delmayne cast an uneasy look
at her brother-in-law's face, a3 she
left the room. She bad a reason for
wishing Dot disposed of; ebe feared
that Richard might fall in love with
bis fascinating ward, and that would
never do, for if he were to marry it
wcnld daeh Mrs. Delmayne's hopes
to the ground. She had determined
that ber eon Dick, his uncle 8 name
sake, should be bis heir. Besides,
her brother-in-law's elegant residence
made a very comfortable home for
herself and fatherless boy, and mad
ame bad no intention of lobing it,
bence she made tbe most of Dou's
mischievous escapades.
Just as madame's silken skirts rus
tled up stairs, the hall door flew
open and light footsteps danced along
tbe passage. .
"Dot! Dot !" called Mr. Del
mayne.
The appellation exactly sailed tbe
young girl who entered. A dainty
form, a dark, piquant face lighted op
with a pair of black eyes, sparkling
with mischief.
"Well, Mr. Delmayne!" she said,
with a saucy smile, which revealed a
dimple in each soft pink cheek, "what
is it a lecture
"Yes, Dot, I really must lecture
you. Your conduct to Mr. Ponsonby
was unlady like."
"1 can't help it, sir; I bale old
Ponsonby ! and 1 am confident that
Mrs. Delmayne invited him here to
make love to me, bo I resolved to
frustrate her kind intentions. She
left me to entertain him when I was
suffering to finish a book. I gave
him the late magazines and hopsd he
woold amuse himself; but no, he
wanted to play cribbage. I bate tbe
game, and told him I never played
except for money."
"Why, Dot !"
"Well, I wanted to shock him, and
I bad tbe satisfaction of seeing bim
look horrified. He asked for some
music aa soon as be recovered bis

began to make some confused sounds,

hanging over the chair, bis wig awry,
and his mouth wide open. Now, you
must admit that tbe. temptation was
strong, and yon know I am no

"No," be assented.
"Well," continued Dora, a "happy
tnoagnt came to me, and t raa up
stairs and got an . old red wig that
Dick used to wear when be belonged
to the dramatic club, and having re
moved tbe squire's nicely dressed

one, I bad to stuff my handkerchief

to finish bis nap until I was tired,

he said. He looked at the clock, say

but must tear himself away. If you
could hare only eeeo those fierce red
locks around that sanctimonious face,
yoa would have enjoyed the joke as
well as I did."
"Dot," said Mr. Delmayne, looking
grarely at bis mischievous ward, "1

from the room.
"Nobody It ft but me,' he mused.
"I wonder I never though of that
I believe I am rather fond of tbe lit

Dot stood by the window in deep

THE COMINtJ EXHIBITION.
Energetic measures continue 10
preparation for tbe coming exhibition.
After aa extensive canvassing aid
several partial settlements upon a
lime, the date has been Gxed posi
tively tor 1333. This is, nexi to lS'fi.
the memorable year of our early hi--tory,
and nothing could be more Ci
ting than its selection for a great na
tional jubilee of a practical kind. On
the l'Jtb of April, 1783, tbe close of
hostilities was officially proclaimed to
Washington's army, then at New
burg. May 13th, the Society of the
Cincinnati was formed . with Wash
ington as President, aad General
Knox as Secretary. Oa June 8tb,
Washington issued that famous letter
to tbe Governors of States, in which
he pleaded so eloquently for "An in
dissoluble Union of tbe States under
one Federal head ; a sacred regard to
public justice ; the adoption of a prop
er peace establishment; aad the for
getting of local prejudices and poli
tics," adding, "these are the pillars
on which the glorious fabric of our
independence and national character
must be supported." "Who cm tead
these lines without astiog; "Was
Washington also a" prophet that be
should look dd wo the vista of a cen
tury to come and tea "to clearly the
precise dangers that should menace
big beloved country "at its close?"
There is more truth and statesman

Can yoa stand another war inci
dent? It is not as grand a scene as
Gettysburg, nor perhaps as big wtih
results; but tha many ringing rt-
spouses t my lust (which I coniij-s
was offered In your e lorK cotrc-
sponoence wno many misgivings;
cave Bcmebow stirred tbe gbo$! ct
many thrilhog memories -a hi eh have
chased each other through my mind
till silence is impossible. Few Amer
icans ever dreamed that amon tbe
dark and gloomy pines of Chance
lorsville was cnucted a trosredv wo
thier to live in epic verse than the fa
mous charge of the Light Bngada at
Balaklava. Oaly ence ia all the his
tories of the war bave I seen it men
tioned, and to-night my ihougLts
brood over tbe nameless graves of
those onsung heroes till my soul cries
out ia protest against tbe favcritisras
of historic fame, and tor these bum-
bio bcrces I tin crave tbe meagre
justice of a passing mention iu tbe
ears of their countrymen.
It was tbe night Stonewall Jack
son received his death-wouud. He
bad completely surprised Howard's
Eleventh Corps and was driving them
in the wildest confosion along towards
the centre of our line. Ia tbtir flight
tbey passed through a woods, just
beyond which, in a clearing. lay four
of Sickles' batteries, and a llyiu; ar
tillery battery aad the Eighth Penn
sylvania cavalry of Gen. lieas-iaton a.
Tbe batteries were no; ia ix-sitiou
but were "parked," waiting urders.
Through tbeir lines putted the panic
stricken fugitives, hotly pursued by
Jackson's immense corp cf over
tweuty th&usaud men.. The field be
came a sight tor a painter. Infantry,
artillery, ambulances, pack mules,
negroes, and straetrlers, the worst
scared men I evtr looked upon, came
tearing like mad ptst us. The bat
teries bad no common commander,
but each captaia excitedly acted tor
himself. "BaV&tv left, wheel. Fire
to the rear, .iu Uattery : Caissons
pass your pieces, trot march !'' and
a frightened Lugier caught only tbe
woid "trot," aa J sounded is and no
more. It rauj? out clear ab)ve the
worse than Bibel ; raaoy touk it for
a general ttampede tigual, andactoss
the field, and dowa the Lili, aad
across a tttoce wall near its foot, in
that famous ravine dashed several
caissons and a few guns. "Fix pro
longe to fire retiring." "Wi.b can
ister load." Oa came tbe fugitives,
nearer and nearer through the sound
ing words came the Confederate yell,
and tbe rush of Stonewall Jacksoo'w
victorious legions. Sickles was al
most a mile away, pushing through
tbe woods with his splendid corps.
Not a Federal musket was in eight
except what the Eleventh corps men
were bearing 10 tbe rear as rapMIy
as legs could carry them. We must
make our fibt against those tremen
dous odds alone five batteries of us
and three hundred cavalrymen not
over faix hundred men, all told. Oa
swept twenty thou-aud Confederates,
and we were not yet ready to fight.
Our line was confusion wor?e con
founded ; guos stood pointing whith
ersoever the excited cauuoneera lif
ted, and at the first lire one half of
us would blow the other half into
eternity, and Stonewall would bare
looker's headquarters, aad double
up our whole army a cheering pros
pect that! Tbe sun bad set behind
the woods, and through tbem, yet
faster, in tbe thickening gloom, rush
ed Jackson's troops. Suddenly out
in front of our guns rode the familiar
form of Gsneral rieasauton. Abive
tbe din rang his shrill voice: "Align
those pieces!" It was a work of
many mioutes, and Stonewall was
now just upau us. Time! Ob, for
ten minutes time ! How to get it ?
There sat Major Keenan with his
tnree bnnured horsemen. . Mere was
the sacrifice, which, if every man
was a patriot like Arnold Wickelried,
would give m those precious min
utes. General l'leattanton said quick
ly 'to Keenan, "Major, you must
charge in those woods with yoor
regiment, aud hold tbe enemy till I
can get those guos io position. Yt u
man do it at all cost"' IMeasaoton
says : "It was just tbe same a say
ing 'you must be killed.' but with t
smile be replied, 'General, I will do
it." Oh, what a bight d that!
Woold to Gud some American Ten
nyson might see that sight, and lift
those bumble names into immortali
ty ! Three hundred troops, with
deep set spurs aod flashing pabres,
at tbe throats of twenty thousand
armed men. Nobjdy had blundered,
but somebody must die to save tbe
Army that was all! So mad a
blow did they strike to Jackson's
very teeth ibat be stopped bis on
ward rush to reform bis lines sore
ly there mnst ba more coming no
single regiment juld be charging
bis army tingle-bauded and when
no more DJia riders came, men 11 was
that brave Keenan died, at tbe bead
of bis regimeut, aod whole platoons
perished with their feet in the stir
rups! Rut tbey did not die in vain
Ten minutes purchased at that fear,
ful'price to us were costlier still to
Jackson When be came on again,
flesh aod blood could not fcUnd up
before our terrific canister Gre. His
veterans quailed before tha. tirocco
of death. lie rode op to rectify his
lines, was mistaken in the gathering
darkaess for oae of our cavalrymen,
and shot by his own men. "Our
three time three" had hardly ceased
to ring when Sickles, who bad dash
ed ahead of his veterans hurrying to
our support, rode op among our guns
and called out : "You've done no
bly, hoys! Stand firm, and in ten
minutes I'll bave fifteen thousand
men here who don't kuow anything
but fight." He was as good as bis
wcrJ, aad quickly the old Third
Corps filed in behind the gucs and
Jackson's famous corpj had received
its first defeat. - Three hundred men
made Thermopylie live through the
centuries; six hundred at Balaklava
rode to fame in sight of the whole
world; but the cynicism of America
bad It ft to slumber in unknown
graves beneath the pine cones of
Chancellorsville, a little baud of men
whose deed was as great and worthy
of renown as those whose fane pcets
have snog through all the ages.
