We bad been married just three days and the glamour of the honeymoon was upon everything--the atmosphere Tarified beyond that breathed by every day mor- tals-- the earth glorified with a new light. -We ate not bread and beefsteak, but some ambrosial dish untasted before, and drank golden nectar, etherealized from hotel coffee pots. I watched Fred from the car window until he disappeared in the refreshment room. What a splendid fellow he was! Such eyes --sueh a mind--such teeth-- such a heart--such a general combination of perfections! How charming--how delightful --how altogether inexpressible it was to belong to him forever, never separ. ated more |--when, whiz! clang! Hor rors!

Three ladies turned to stare at me, and there was an unmistakable titter beneath the heavy moustache of a gentleman op~ posite, ¢ Sarry, mum, but it can't be helped. -- If gents will stop at bar-rooms to wet their whistles, we can't wait for 'em.' A barrodm! Fred in a bar-room wet. ting his whistle! What did tke odious man mean? I tried to crush him with a look, but I waso't equal to it. Fred-- my Fred--in a bar-room.! ¢ You needn't be alarmed,' said an old gentleman kindly ; ¢ there will be anotber accommodation at eight.' ¢ At eight!' and it was now just half. past four. I sank back upon the cuskion in quiet desperation. What was to be- come of me ? With the entire abnegation peculiar to the early phases of honey-moon, [ had put my little velset portinonnaie, band: kerchief and viniaigrette in Fred's vest pocket ; not that 1 hadn't aby pocket of my own, but there was such a. delightful novelty in feeling that now I had a right to his.

A sudden thought flashed inte my mind ~Aunt Tabby lived in Philadelphia! I[ bad directed a letter to her only a few weeks before announcing my approaching marriage. True, the reply was rather discouraging--being dismally prophetic of all sorts of evils that awaited me, and darkly suggestive of the snares and pitfalls in that Broad road that leads to matrimony an | destruation. But Aunt Tabby took a vinegzary view of everything. She never had fe!t the mellowing influence of a honeymoon. We arrived at the depot ; my moustach- ed friend had left the car some time before so I was unprotected again. An army of hackmen beseiged the door of the depot, and I immediately became the subject of a stroggle. Oaths and whips resounded about my ears, until I was fioally seized upon and carried off by the most energetic of the party. Having secured me jn a very dirty vehicle, he regarded me with a triumphant grin. "If you will I suggested. * Four trunk is it?

I had forgotten 1hat Fred had the checks also. Alas for the power. lessness of woman!" I saw my new Sara-- toga, filled with the daintiest of trousseaus bundled off with a lot of hotel baggage, and couldn't raise a fioger to claim it. It was the last straw on the camel's back, and I drove in tears to Aunt Tabby's using my tissue veil as a pocketbandker- chief, and thereby unconsciously tattooing my face with streaks of blue. Even Aunt Tabby's monumental rigid- ity was overcome by my appearance, when she met me at her immaculate door-- step. ¢ Left you! and only married three days! Pay that backman, Mary Jane, and send him off before be sees any more of this family disgrace! Only three days! The Lord have mercy on us! That I should have lived to see brother Henry's child rought to this. 'I'aken all your money and clothes, too! Well! well! it's nothing more nor less than I expected. Only an accident! Don't talk to me of accidents. If you ever lay your eye on that man again, my name is not Tabitha Tinstich! The mean spirited scoundrel! to leave you without a rag to your back! You poor deluded innocent! Dut on the kee, Mary Jane, and hurry up the tea; this poor child is rembling like a leaf, and well she may I" I was too dispirited and miserable to attempt to stem the torrent of Aunt Tab's indignation... I let her talk on, ¢0, and ain't it dreadful, mum? I beard the sympathetic Mary Jane murmur aside, to ber mistress; 'such a sweet young creetar as she be! And only look at her face ; I expect he's been banging of her." Aunt Tabby pursed up ber mouth, and shook her head expressively. ¢ Let this be a warning to you, Mary Jane! © ¢ Oh, I'm sure it will, mum," was the feeling reply. «She'll never lay eyes on him, again,' retorted Aunt Tabby, solemnly, *never.' # Lord bless my soul |. Who's that 2' There was a knock at the door that fairly shook the house. ' 1s my wife here !' asked a quick, anx- ious voice, and the next moment Fred's wife was there, clasped in the strong, brave arms, crying and laughicg together ou the broad loving breast.

The sldigentientan: read-- to the main office where several spruce looking young men were scratching away as unconcernedly as if they had not been engaged in an animated discussion of the robbery only a minute before. I glanced at them sharply, but saw nothing -suspici - ous in their Jooks, and concluded it would be a waste of time to question them. 1 examined the lock of the door open- ing upon the street, and found it had not oeen tampered with, although the first arrival had found the door ajar. 1 next turned my attention to a door opening up- on the rear, and found it securely locked, in which condition it bad been, so the president assured me, since the night be- fore. ¢ Who has charge of the key of the door ?' | inquired. ¢ Mr. N. » the cashier, has one, and our janitor the other.' ¢ Can either of these gentlemen be sum. moned 7' ¢ Yes, both if needs be. Here, War- ren, run arounnd to Mr. N 's and tell him that I wish to see him immedi- ately.' The clerk addressed was about to obey, when a sudden thought struck me and [ called him back. ¢ You need not trouble Mr, N--r ; but if the janitor can be found ask him to step down for a minute or two,' In less than two minutes the clerk re- turned accompanied by the janitor--a broad shouldered Irishman, whose answers to my questions were in such a straight. forward manner, that I at once exonerated him from all blame. ¢ Your lock up after the clerks have gone home, do you not ?' I inquired, look- ing the man in the eyes. ¢ Yis, sometimes I does, an' sometimes I doesn't," was the laconic answer. ¢ When do you not ?' * When Mr. N---- worruks late o' nights as has been the case putty much o' late.' Did you lock up last night ?' Yes, sir, an' whats more, tried every dure afterwards.' ¢ At what time did you lock that door?' and [ pointed toward the front entrance. ¢ Well, as near as 1 can recollect, balf. past siven.' 'Are you sure you shot the bolt into its Socket 7' " Aye! I could swear I locked that dure an' left it locked.' ¢ How about the windows? Did you fasten them as well ? ¢ Yis, ivery won ov thim.' 'Very good, sir. You may go new it you like, and I will investigate matters below stairs. . ¢ Certainly, sir ; but first let me get my coat and hat. I am troubled with the rheuthatism, you observe, and have to ex- ercise more 'thin usual care when de- secending to the vaults. I will be with you in a mintite or two,' and the old gen- tleman disappeared within his private of- fice. : ¢ Therold hunks ©" [ heard some one one exclaim. | ¢ Devilish careful of him- self, ain't he?" "And then a snicker ran around the room. I judged from this that the "old bunks' io question was something of a bug-bear to the gentleman who had just delivered bimself ; but I' had no time for reflection, 'for the old gentleman made his 'appear- ance at this instant and conducted me to the vault below. The heavy iron door of the large vault in which the banks funds were stored stood wide open affording 'a view of the interior, which presented a scene of confusion not unfamiliar to my eyes. 'Books end papers lay upon the | floor in every direction; where they bad been thrown after having gratified cutiesity of the burglars, : + I stooped to pick up a crumpled docu- ment that Jay at my feet, and as 1 did: so the sparkle of a gem, heretofore conceal ed by the paper; caught my eye.

Be calm, my friend ; the parties who robbed the Clifton Bank will be likely to pay you a visit,' ¢ Ah! I hope your surmises are correct; but pray tell me your reasons for thinking as you do.' ¢ Certainly. In the first place the bank robbery is the work of one man, and he is not a professional burglar, in the"second place the man cares more for grern-backs than he does for ornaments, and would not plunder your place for all there is in it ; in fact the very same party owned a diamond, but threw it away rather than carry it around with bim. It is very pretty, is it not ?' And [ held the stone up to bim. The jeweler took it, examined it cluse- ly, and returned it to me with the remark: ¢Itis, as you remark, a very pretty stone, and I might add, very valuable for a gem of its size. That is your clue, [ presume 7° 'Yes; the only clue I happen to pos~ sess. Now then, I am anxious to find the ring to which this stone belongs and you will please allow me to see the rings that have been left here for resetting since the robbery.' 'With pleasure. Excuse me one mo~ ment." ia And my friend disappeared, returning a minute later, with a number of rings on a tray, which be placed on a table, and began to examine the labels attacked. ¢ Some of these rings have been in our possession a number of days. Ah! bere's, one received this morning, Jan 11--dia- mond setting--E. Baker.' And he read the inseription. Itook the ring from his hand and ex- amined it. It was a finely chased ring of virgin gold, with the stone missing. "I fit= ted the diamond in the setting, and passed it to my friend. * By Jove, Tracy, that is the very ri you are in search of! Now, let me see, And be went nearer the light. ¢ Yes, there can be no doubt abont it.
