PARKER'S' PRI FA TE ,ECTET Alt
Tho story I and about to tell relates to
an incident in the history of, England
which is but little known, and which
you will not find in books, butone which
nevertheless had a great effect on her
destinies. - '
About the beginning of this century,
while the Revolutionary Wars were rag
ing, communication in cipher was nat.
urally very prevalent ; and ingenuity
I'2,li...taxed to the utmost on one hand to
invent, and on the other to detect the
medium used in secret correspondence.
As a rule, the decipherer had beaten the
- ciphMer, and no known method was sC
,cure of detection. If conventional signs
were merely used, the recurrence of the
different symbols gave a key easily fol
lowed out. Some ingenious spirits cor
respondlq reference to' the pages and
lines of partibular cditiods of books=
methods, although they might' preserve
the secret,••diseovered what was often
quite - as dangerous, there. was a secret.
lam about to tell you of a plan which
for a long time Was not only undetected,
but unsuspected.
It was at that time when the First Na
poleon had assembled his fleet and trans
ports at Brest, with the ostensible and
as is generally-believed-the real - view,-of
making_
,a descent on England. The
greatest precautions were observed by .
the English government in regird to
correspondence from France, and an
amount Of espionage was practiced at
,the-post-offico - which left - Siflinneijiliii:
ham's subsequent performance ii-that
line Tar behind. The national excitement
was intense, and the political depart
ments of the government were nth-Innis
tereil with aniren sway.
My uncle, Sir George Trevor, was, as
all the world then knew, high iu the
Admiralty—and as it was from him that
I heard this anecdote„ its veracity may
be depended on:
Tho.dospatolies to and-from the Admi
ralty were the subject of the gravest vigi
lane() and the most stringent regula
tions. The clerks warp not permitted to
send or reeeive letters .which were not
first submitted to the chierclorli ; and it
was behoved that letters addressed I.lliOrt
to private residences were frequently
opened at' the,post office.
,
At, the time .I. Speak of, .the, Chief Clerk
was . an Olden ly man of the name of Par
ker-7-a • Nvizoned; wiry, daks3r
so .imbued the'eflicial.' tincture of

thOught's.nd slept:solely for the Ailud,
ralty, and know no other .ploasuro or

soul, keen. and energetic ,in the . affairs
of his office, and in , all others a mere
child. , ,
Ito lia‘d assumed as , his private sacra

moat, who was one of.tho
,most
subordinates of 'ills Ssiablislmeut
He was modest and unassuming, very
good looking, with a countenance and
an air suggestive ocdepressidn and mel
ancholy. Ho was evidently of good edu
cation, and probably well, born also,
for his manners wore easy and indicated
good breeding. Ho was a native of Jer
sey, and had been introduced to the, no
tice of the Admiralty authorities by some.
influential membOr of tlie jParliament.
Ho Was much liked in tlie office and dis
charged his duties to perfection.
Ono morning Parker presented himself
to my uncle with a visage pale with woo
and trembling with7excitement.
"Why, what is the matter, Parker?
Has Bonaparte Om?" '
"Ho may have,-for aught I know,"
said POker. " Things are allzwreng,- Sir
George:"
-" What is wrong I"
"The letters are wrong. There is a
spy among us. I have known it for a
long time, now I •am quite sure . ; but I
cannot find him ord.',
, Parker went on to explain that ho , hacl
for some time suspected that some one in
the .office communicated. their priyate
information and despatches outside. 110
had redoubled his prdertutiomi; but,
more than ever confmnied in his silspic-
ions, was entirely bafflatin his endeav
, rs to detect the culprit. ;
"Eut, Pii,rVe - r," raid 'nude, "how
do you•come to be so sure that your so
rrels have transpired ?"
".Py the fund. 4, Sir George. They an
swer to the news as surely' as the bell
down stairs answers to the hell rope. I
find them going up.and clown as if they
were sitting in the office," said Parker,
personifying. the stock exchange for a
moment.
"Have all the letters to the elerlis been
examined strictly?"
"Yes ; I read them all myself."
" Find nothing in them ?"
" Mighty little. Some are from home
'and some from friends, but most of them
from sweethearts," said Parker, twisting
his face into h grim 'smile, , " and - ruin
things they say in them."
" And the young men's letters ; are
‘ll,
they rum, tee"
" They -emote careful like, as they
know lam t sec them ; but Lord,,save
you, sir, the, are lastuff ; not a ha'porth
. intin ini-a-!=-.- .
"This matter must be seen to," said
my uncle. "I have had my °lin misgiv-,
ings on the same subject: Bring me all
the - letters-which come to and are sent by
the-clerks:fortko-next .week. There is:
no reascif - CWhy you should have all, the
rum things to y_oui•self.'.' . _
So my uncle had the letters foiawOek,
and found them very mucli . siich at Par
ker had described them, 'The suspicious
symptoms increased ; . therpticlCUAchangb
responded more sensitively than ever;
but not the slightest ground for suspect
ing any one transpired. My uncle was
bewildered, and Parker was rapidly ver
ging on insanity."
"It is certainly not the clerks," said
"_There is no :reason there,"
said he, pushing back the letters of the
day. "By , the "way, how does young
Bennett get on ? She seems a nice crea
ture, that sister of his, to judge by her
letters."
"He is•the best hand in the office, a
long sight, and his-sister is a very lady
like creature. They arc orphans, poor
things, and he supports her out of his
salary. She called at the office two
months ago, and I gave him leave tosee"
her for a few moments in my room. But
he knew it was against the rules, and has
not seen her here again."
"But what are we toedo '?" said my
uncle. "I think I will speak to the
First Lord." .
So ho spoke :to the Yirst Lurd,...who
thought the affair serious enough.
" It must be in the letters," said he. ,
"It cannot be in the lettms," said lily
uncle.
`I As yoliplease," said the chief ; "but
although you cannot find it there, per
haps another can.- I would try an ex
pert."
3ly uncle had no faith in experts or
Bow Street runners, and mistrusted therm
But he could not refuse to try the experi
ment. Sn...qo most experienced, .deci
phcror in - Lobdon tras summoned into
council, and to him the letters of the day
were secretly submitted.

" Who is the lady 'Who writes this

Parker, smartly. " Sister of my private

"Does she write often ?"
"Yes; she in T his only correspondent,
and writes about twice a Week."
• "Where does she live?",
----"She lives in Jersey . . Beaumont , - Old

"Alid (lees she always write about tho

Hum l" . said the export. ,
"Well, , sir," said My Uncle, wIM with
rather impatient of the man of shill's
pomposity, " and what may `hum' Mean ?
Have' the young women and their aunt's
rheumatism done the mischief?"
"Hum ! She dates from Fleet street.
"And why should slm not date from

said tho unmoved philosopher. "Has

"Oh, Yee,--a conplo of yearn or so, but

: "Y:Or how. long . regularly?"
' "About two months."
That is,' abotit the limo when you

Taiie my wcirdliir it, the Beau-

"Hum I" And with that the man of

ho would return in two days. The two
days, limireyor, were AO before ho can

and Parker,T•with whom ho - had fallen in

'".Wants to mak° a job," said the lat
tOr-:—" a 'reguiir hutbbilg."
"Sir goorge,"
_said the rewilar.huin
bug, "has Beaumont a looked desk in
his room 2" ' •
n Yes, sir," said Parker, "he has."
" Have you a key which will open it !"
" I have—and what of that?"
"I •wish to ha!,m; that desk opened
without his knowledge, and the contents
brought to me."
-
• ^ " And on what pretence," said my un
cle, "do you propose to put -this insult
on a man againg"Whom there,is no rea,47'
Boilable ground of suspicion, and Who.
has not• been allowed to speak for hint
self?"
"There need be no insult for lie will
know nothing of it ; neither will any
one else."
"I will not permit it, sir."
• "Hum I Then-I-can-do no more in the
business."
"But,"' said Parker, whos6 official no
tion made him unwilling to _break Mr the
negotiations in this'manner,, "what pre
tence have you for doing this to.Bcau r
mont, and not to the other clerks?"
"Shall I tell you"? There is Tio- 'such
person as Ulnae, BeOumont, and the ad
dress in Fleet Street is,a notorious haunt
of suspected foreigners."
"'Good gracious I" said my uncle,
changing color, you don't say:that ?"
". it is the fact ; but ,yeu will see the
necessity of being cautions and silent in
the matter. Detection hangs on a thread
as it stands, and a whisper will break
it."
"What do you mean,'' snid Parker,
'about Elinor Beaumont ? I liMie seen
" There Ts no Elinor Beaumont in Jer
sey. I'have sent and ascertained the
fact."
" I am sure there is some mistake about
all this, Which Beaumont can clear up.
Let us send for him."
"If you do the game is up. I trust, in
fact he does not know of my visits. We
cannot be too cautious in this matter I"
" Pedantic ass," muttered my uncle ;
'but I suppose we had better give him
his own way.• If yon meet Parker and
me here at seven to-night, we shall have
this wonderful desk opened, and your
great discoveries shall be made."
They
.4 met again that evening. The
desk Iyas opened by Parker, and a bun
dle of letters, carefully packed up, all
L,oni—Eli-nor-Beamnontand-a-quantity
of circulars, playbills, and show receipts
were handed to the export. .
That gentleman read titre igh the let,
tors and seemed much stri'cic by .the
last.
"Read that," said he, handiii, r x,,it, to my
uncle. .A.§_ the, letter, is important, I
give. it entire.
120 FLEET STREET, SCiA. 24, 1803
DEmi Cirnumm ; .Although we
had an .adVerse wind 'all the' way, we
without difficulty the port we were
bound for. My aunt, in spite of the
weight of her Ilfty' years, enjoyed ;the
trip much and is ready to sail again.; I
hope you will think of sending the line
you promised on the twenty-fifth, and
cores yourself, as. your party Is: noW
ambit smaller, 'and we should enjoy the
visit.
'When I was in London last weak I
saw your cousin' Harry, fresh from
Windsor. There is but little change to
be observed in him—not as much as you
would expect.
Yours, very aflbctionately,
My uncle read this out loud, from be
ginnlng to end, i'ind then ho said, "Do
you seo anything suspicious in that? It
seems to nuf very innocent."
Humph !It may be. Was there
anything else in the desk l"' said he, ad
dressing Parker.
" You mamo and look,'' growled that
potentate ; and he led the way, the ex
pert following. . .
The desk was quite empty, with the.
exception of two or three scraps of pa
per. ',Qn oiie f thesb the expert pouncqd
and returned with an air of elation to
the other room. He then unfolded this
scrap of paper, disclosing half sheet
exactly the sizeeof paper on which Elinor
Beaumont's letters were written, in
which oblong holes at intervals had been
cut.
Ho then placed this half sheet over
the letter, and handed both, thus placed
to my uncle, whose astonished eyes read
the following words, which the holes left
visible :
"Fleet wind-bound. Fifty sail of the
lino. Twonty.tiyo smaller. Should the
wind change, expect us en Friday."
" The devil !" 'said my uncle ; and
NolseM adored' effle the West Indies."
Then VS : 4s there, as yo may supposo,
hurrying and seurrying„ and running
and chasing, and despatching of Gov
ernment couriers, .and semaphore tele
graphs, and carrier-pigeons, and all the
known means of emmettnibation' thou iii
fashion. The key thus obtained disclosed
the whole.conispondence, which turned
out to 'be a connected series of letters
from - the - French - Government; - smuggled
into Je'rsey: The rest history knows—
the intended invasion was abandoned
and Napoleon went else Where.
"But. what put you on the scent ?"
asked—Mi—uncloLafterwarchfrWitli—nia-ny
,
apologies to the expert.
"I suspected the trick -from the first,
although it was a very' good specimen of
it, the letters were too innocent and had
too little point in,them. But they were
done with admirable' skill. The gram.
'mar was complete,`and the little dots or
marki which bunglers use to guide them,
in writing the Words which aro to be
read were entirely aliSent. The way in
which the 4i:caption is effected: is MS':
Tho correspondents, before commencing,
'take a sheet of paper and cut holes in it;
which, of course, in the two, half
.sheets,
exactly correspond. They each take
ono half sheet,- and,when the letter is to
be. written, the writer so arrangei the
'Words' that - those ,intended to - be read
shall appear in the holes when the -half
sheet is placed over the paper, whiCh is
of the same size.. When his correspond
ent receives ,his lettisr ho places his half
sheet over it and roads the words as you
did. The difficulty, which 'was well con-
Tuned in, this * case, is to make the sense
run AlnentlY and to prevent any visibl§
break in the Writing. Without the half
sheet with
- the holes 'in it, no ono can
have the slighteSt (drib bo,the real mean
.,
"My suspicions, .once 'aroused, were
- donflrmed by `the inquiries whiehl made:
The whole- atory, about the sister was a
fabricatlon.' The letters did come from' ,
Jersey, rho answers went to Fleet
to Clio churgo very notorious foreign
agent. But if our friend had net beau
fool enough to leave his half sheet in his
desk wo might have groped in vain for
the mystery."
'Beaumont disappeared that night, and

WHY HARRISBURG IS A GROW
The report of the census, as -given by
tl;o - United ~ States Marshal, shows 'the,.
, populaMon of lltuTisburg to be 23,63,
This is an increase. in the last 10 years,
of 10,000. Upon e'xaniinatiOn, it is foluid
that the increase in the manufactuing
operstiOns in this; city, just about to lies
iyith the_grollo_pnlation._ltitatt
been a matte' , of surprise to many of our
own citizens, and to all residing outside,
and ignorant of the progress we have
made in productive industry, that the
Capital city of the State should have
grown so much more rapidly than-any ,
other. A thorough canvass or it, shows
that during the last 10 years, over $5,-
000,000 have - been In - vested here iii Man
ufacturing operations. Over $2,000,000
are paid out annually in wages, to about
3,000 workingmen. It is a fair estimate
to' calculate five persons to every laborer.
Upon this basis, these manufacturing
establishments give support to a popu
lation of about 15,000 seals. The $2,-
000,000 that are paid out in wages, are
distributed throughodt the city to shoe
makers, tailors, grocers, butchers, dry
goods. merchants, and other dealers, and
to professional men, such as lawyers,
doctors, teachers,'and • ministers of the,
Gospel, and to farmers- who sell their
produce in our markets at fair prices. '
This fact alone explains the whole se
cret of the prosperity and rapid growth,
