MR,-JOHN STOTT'S birriouLT
Less than .forty- years ago, in a cer
tain west country towirof England,
lived Mr. John Stott, head of the con
stabulary, so astute a thief catcher
that his friends thought it a pity he
should throw his wits away upon pro
vincialvagabonds,- not giv,o them
broad and noble scope as a Bow Street
runner. His enemies, the local scoun
drels, thought the same but contented
themselveS with, observing. darkly,
that 'he was - so sharp that he would
one day probably,,eut himself,' or that
in , as too clever to live.' In spite of
these intellectual advantages, or in
consequence of them, Mr. Stott was
as . vain as a peacock, and made the
not uncommon mistake of imagining
hitnseltiNeti a Cleverer fellow than he
really was. He kept the little town
(for it was a little one then) so clear
of evil-doers, and got so complimented
thereupon by the bench of magistrates
.4el not conceive that any
misdemeanor crild
his sagacity should be Unable to . fer
ret out, or should fail to bring it home
to the true culprit. don't pretend
for to say,' was one of his favorite re
marks, 'as I was never puzzled in my
professioni but this I will say as no'
man ever took me in twice;'' and then
he would resume hpipe with the air
of,a man who has modestly confessed
to a weakness which no other person
would have dreamed of attributing to
him. Even his wife believed in Mr.
John Stott, and so doubtless would his
valet de chambre, if he had - nappencil
to have kept one.
'Burglary
_at Sir Robert Air's last
night,' said he, sententiously, as he
sat smoking after supper in his
sang little parlor, one summenevening
.while his wife. mixed. his gin-punch
after his own particular receipt.
'You have got the wretches, of
course" observed Mrs. Stott, paring
the lemon-peel so that you could see
through it, 'or elec.' it would not be my
John.' .
'Well, no,' returned the great man,
rightly appropriating the last observa
tion as a compliment rather than an
expression of doubt as to hie personal
identity. The fact is,"it's very queer ;
but I have not got the wretches. I
shall have them - 40-morrow, but at
present they are absolutely at large,'
'Lor, John ! I can scarcely believe
you when you tell me. Why, how on
earth could they have got away from
you 7 They could not have been ordin.
ary burglars.'
'You are right ma'am,' returned the
chief-constable, with,a gratified look;
'you have bit the nail exactly:on the
head. They were not ordinary men ;
they were acrobats.' . .
'Acrobats!' answered Mrs. Stott,
softly ; 'dear me l'
She had no very accurate idea what
'acrobats' wore; they might be are-
ligious sect,
,or they might be a savage
tribe, or possibly, oven both. But she
had long passed for a womaqi of sense
and sagacity, through maintaining a
discreet silence except When her hus
band's talents 'seemed to demand her
eulogies, and she was not going to:
risk that reputation now. She had a
full share of the curiosity of her sex,
but she had more than their ordinary
patience. She waited to be informed

seldom omitted, notwithstanding :the

About twoA. At., from long habit,
the wife of the chief-constable' was ac

for him. Notwithstanding, his preca

mnctuality, and as time (which in her
Opinion was almost the only thing that
could do it) went on without him, she
began to be seriously alarmed lest this
admirable man, whom human ingenui
ty had never yet baffled, had been
overwhelmed by envious fate. There
had keen thunder in the air that night
and a bolt may have struck him. But
at daylight she heard the front-door
open, and a slow tread came up the
stairs. • The wife of a chidf-cdrii3table
should be above the suspicion of trep
idation, but it was so unlike his ordin
ary step, -that it made her heart go pit
apat. However 'it was her hin:mid,
whose noble spirit something had evi
dently cast down. Instead of kicking
his boots across the room ; as msual, he
drew them off, and then sat in his
stockings, thinking.
'John ; said she, in much confusion
and alarm. 'what is the matter, my
dear? Have you not caught them alba
trosses I—l mean albinos.'
'Yes, ma'am they're safe enough.,
But the deuce of it. is that—in their
absence—there has been another bur
glary. Mrs. Colonel I'eewit's house
has been broken into just in the same
way,—through the second-floor back
window. It's ribthing less than magic
for that had a mignonette-box; and
there is no mark of a ladder to be found
there neither. I've had my bull's-eye
over every square inch of it.
'Lor, John l'
'There was nobody in the room,'
went on the chief constable, musing;
'and the window was open, so that the
thing might have been done easy
eneugh, when he bad once got there.
But how he ever did-get there = that's
the • question unless. the devil had
wings.'
. 'But the Devil has wings !' was
Mrs. Stott's involuntary exclamation ;
the pied lady was eb flustered by her
Hate anxiety, that for once she spoke
in a hurry.

was also no trace of the foot of it in the
Boil below,:or 'sign of an attempt to re
move such . trace, although in the Case
of Sir Robert's house. there was a
flower-bed immediately beneath the
window.' Mr. Stott, in short, brought
all his intelligence to bear upon this
problem in vain, and nothing came of
it but headache, • '
Next day, the whole town was in a
state of intense alarm. The previous
robbery had created much excitement
among the inhabitants, but not so
'sagacious manner in which their chief
constable had discovered the mode of
depredation ; but now, not only had a
r -
second outrage been committed, but the
facts of its occurrence while the acre
bats_.were:Way.itad..pte.Y.P.d.their.W.ll9-
cencd of this particular offence (though
the magistrates not knowing how 'else'
to account for their seizure committed
them for a month, as rogues and yoga•
bonds), and negatived Mr. John Stotts
chairman of the Bench, who had Veen
accustomed to suck that official's
brains before addressing his audience
-in, the Town-hall, bad nothing to say
upon the subject except to recommend
people to shut their second-floor win
dows, which, since it was very warm
weather, and most of them- cultivated
flower-boxes, did not give general sat
isfaction.
The next night, the mayor's own
house was robbed in a precisely 'And-
lar manner
It was on a - Friday, and the local
papers, which came out the next day,
published second and third editions, to
describe the details. Besides the bur
glary, a sort of sacrilege had been com
mitted. The thief had, actually posses •
serf himself of the Municipal
_Mace.
This beautiful object, although not in-.
trinsically 'valuable, had apparently
excited his greed, for he had dragged
it out oNts case as far
.as the window,
and thence let it fall with a report that
• . hahouse,avv___lterte.d.4o.-
ground below. When the door was
opened, however, (which the Servants
declined to do, until the " Proper au- .
thorities" 'arrived), the marauder had
vanished, and with him this Emblem'
of Authority, as well as a pair his_
Lordship's boot-hooks. There happen
ed to be nothing kept in that room but
the mayor's boots and the town mace.
But the incident was, of course, as dis
tressing to Mr. John Stott as though
the. regalia had been • plundered. He
felt that his great reputation was giving
way under.these repeated shocks; the
rest of the constabulary were of course
'overwhelmed with disgrace ; and - the
Tory newspaper -- bliefily advocated
" stringent measures," and the calling
out of'the Yeomanry.

this Saturday afternoon, there-is no

were the chief attraction.; their inno
cent gambols, and the remarkable pea
chant they
,exhibited Joy biting, each
other's tails, were the adiniration of
the beholders. Mrs., Stott,, while re
garding these parodies upon mankind
with a- contemplative air,. was very.
.nearly—indeed, literally within half an
inch or so—payinga great penalty, for.
her philosophic abstraction: A ribbed-
face baboon of 'gigantic size, looking
not unlike one of Mr: Cooper's Indian
heroes in his war paint,-made a snatch
at her fingers, which, loaded , with rings,
happened to be-ungloved, for she had
just been taking: refreshments.

the clerk to the magistrates, gallantly;

sex, for what is in it,' replied Mrs.
- Jones, who had been - an - heiress in u
small way, till her husband removed
from her that invidious distinction by
spending 116 7 MOriey. -.-
The - ribbed-face baboon screamed
with disappointment, and swung-by his
rope headforemost, and with his eyes
shut, for the test of the evening.
It was 1 A. M., and the chief-con
stable's wife had-been in bed since mid
night, but shehad not yet fallen asleep.
She was awaiting the arrival of Mr.
Stott, in hopes that he might have
some good news to tell her, or to com

She had left the window open, through
which the soft fresh air came gratefully
enough after the atmosphere of the
menagerie. She would be able to catch
the majestic footfall - of her lord while
it was a great way off, and she was
listening fel. it. Presently through the
deep summer stillness, sounded h a -hu
man step, which, albeit not, that she.
was expecting, Seemed familiar to here
It was a step which, although ii'moved
with quickness, had a slight limp, such
as she had noticed in the gait of Mr.

beneath the window, and there was a
sliding, scrambling noise, as though
something ,were struggling*up the wa
ter-pipe that ran down the side of the
house, and she felt at once that the
mystery of these nightly thefts was
about to be solved!
She wile frightened, of .course ; but
she did not shut her eyes and put. her
head under the bedclothes, as most la

space had become obscured by the
presence of the marauder ? Yen,.that
was it ; and what a marauder !
The face of the intruder she could
.not catch ; but she saw that he 'was

Singular Beene at a Wedding
The New Orleana p icayune says:
1 Wednesday night quite a fashionable
wedding was celebrated in the Fourth
District. • The bride Was pretty, as all
newly •married ladies are, and the
'mom was the glass of fashion ; and the
mould' of form; 'A number of invited
guests leist grace and bearity to the:oc
casion, and hearty congratulations lea
7tified the7goo47ishes - of many - fricifdi
fui the,happiness.of the newly-married
pair. Brit_ the , hours waned
and time for retiring'came . at last.,
bride Was led by laughing brides
,maids up to ler chamber door. But
imagine their' surprise
_when it was
opened by a lady, richly and elegantly
'clad in a traveling suit, and -evidently
waiting for_ an interview.
" I beg pardon, madam; but you ap
pear astonished,' said the strange lady.
" I must confess, I did not expect to
see any one here," replied the bride.
" No, madam; I came in very pri
vately, `and wished an interview, sub
ject to no interruption."
It did net occur to the bride to in,
quire by whom she had been introduc•
ed, or by *hat means she had gained
access to her apartment.
" It is very strange, ma'am, and
- aff 3 titialigiiiirinrytitrigiartiriftitvak
to me r
"The reason is simple. The.inan
you have just married has imposed
upon you. lam big wife !" ,
"Oh I impossible—you rave !" and
-.the ladyiTankinto ra.chair almost faint
ing. Of course the bridesmaids-scream
ed. Such a succession of shrieks one
has rarely heard. It, speedily brought
the family to the door with terror
stricken .faces, and with them the gay
bridegroom, all asking with trembling
lips
"What in the world is the matter 7"
"0 ! Edward." cried the bride,
"this person says she is your. wife."
"My wife!" shouted_ the astonished
husband; " why she's insane."
The strange lady stood up calm and
unruffled.
" Is it possible, sir, that having per
petrated this great wickedness, you
will have the hardihood to deny that
lam your - lawfully wedded wife ?"
she asked, looking the. sorely'troublecl
Edward full in the eye. _ •
"Why, confound you, woman !
never saw you before in my life I" ex
claimed the astonished man.
The lady regarded him very much
as a minister would ti person - given
over to total depravity.
- ".011 ! Edward , I'm afraid its true!
and I loved you so !"'sobbed the ymillg
wife, " how could you have treated me
do 7"
7 T r id you 'I ir`itrai't got any wife
but you; this woman is an impostor."
The strange lady uttered - - a low,
mocking laugh. The scene was getting
interesting to the last degree. The
lrdies were all crying, and the father
of the bride looking stern and indig
nant. He had been for some time in
tently regarding the strange lady, when
suddenly his eye lighted tip, and an
amusing smile played on his lips. He
took a step forward, and laying his
hand on the shoulder of the stranger,
said :
" Come, John, this is very cleverly
played, but it's time it was over," and
following the impulse of_his arm .the
stranger was pushed . into the hall.
" John h hat ?" all exclaim
ed at once.
It was the bride's younger brother ;
a wicked boy, who had played a
naughty prank,' with the aid of his
sister's traveling suii'and her cast off
chignon and curls.
It is scarcely necessary to remark
that harmony was very speedily re
stored. •
Cory O'Lanus on Banks
This astute philosopher enlightens

AN ENTEIIPIIISINe AOWNT.—An enter
priiing travelling agent fora well-known _
Cleveland tombstone manufactory, re
cently made a visit to a small town in a
neigbboripg county.. •Hearing in the vil
lage that a man in a remote part of the
township had lost his wife, he thought he
would go add see him, and offer hips con
solation ;and a grave-stone, on his usual
reasonable . terms.—lle started; the road
was a horribly frightful ono, but the a-.
gent . persevered,,and arrived at. the be
reaved man's house. Bereaved man's hired .
girl told the agent that the bereaved man'
was splitting fence rails, "over in the pas-
tur." After falling into all manner of

and tumbling over decayed low the-agent__

man that "what was his loss was her gain,"

yes! I have," sold the man, -but no grave

An Exacting Husband
.Wycherly, the comedian, married a
girl of eighteen when he was verging on
eighty. Shortly afterwards Providence
was pleased in His mercy to the young
woman to call the old man to another - and
better viotld. But ore he took his final
departure from this, ho summoned his
young wife to his . bedside, and announced
to her be was dying, whereupon 'she wept
bitterly. Wycherly lifted himself up in
the bed and ga4ing with tender emotion
'on his weeping Ville, said:
"My dearest' love, I have a solemn prom
ise .to exact. from you before I quit your
side forever here below. Will you assure
Me my wishes - will be attended to - by you,
however great the sacrifice • you will bo
called upon to make?"
Horrid ideas of suttees, of poor • Indian
widows being called upon to expire on fu
neral Pyres, with the bodies of 'their
,de-,
ceased_ lords and \ masters, flashed across
the brain of the poor woman. with a con
vulsive effort and a desperate resolution,
she gasped out an assurance that his com
mans, however dreadful they might.be,
should be obeyed. .
Then Wycherly, with a ghastly smile,
said in a low and solemn voice:
"My beloved wife, the parting request
I have to make to you is—that when I 4
am gono(hdre the poor woman sobbed and
cried most vehemently), when I am in my
grave—(Mr's. Wycherly tore Mil. hair)—
when I am laid low—the disconsplate wifo
roared with grief,)—when I am no longer
p. heavy burden and a tie on you ("Oh for
heaven's sake," howled Mrs. W.,) "what
am I to do?") —I command you my dear
young wife—(yes, y-o-s, love, sobbed Mrs.
W., )—on the pain of incurring my mal
ediction—(y-o-s dear -groaned the_ horror
stricken wifo)=npver"to - marry an old
man again?',
Mrs.
most
dried her tears, and in
the most fervent manner, processed that
she never would—and that faithful wo
man kept her word for life..
