The Invalid Wife.

Not the least painful of the various duties
connected with the detection of crime, is
the sometimes necessary one of revealing a
husbands guilt to his wife
anticipated a severe trial of nv feelings
in making such disclosure during the pro
gress OF recent important case where the
mail-robber was in possession Of mail l-kcy,
by means of which he had committed extern
sive dcpredatons lie was at length detected,
and has lately entered upon ten wears
term in the State prison
On his arrest he manifested much solici-
tude for his wife, fearing that the nteli-
gence Of his situation would oyerpower her.
" She is in feeble health at best" said he.
and am afraid this will kill her
1t was necessary, however, that should
see her in order to get possession of some
funds, part OF the proceeds of the robbercs
which her husband had committed to her
keeping. Furnished with written order
from the prisoner, and leaving him in the
Marshal's custody, proceeded to call ON the
invalid, racking my brains while ON my way
to her residence for some mode of commu-
nicating the unpleasant truth which should
disclose it gradually and spare her feelings
as much rs possible
On my arrival at the boarding house the
note was sent to the lady's room thread as
follows
My dear Susan; Will You hand to the bearer a
roll of bank notes which | left with you.
EDWIN.
The lady soon made her appearance She
was young, rather prepOssessing, and evident
ly in delicate health. Finding that | was
the bearer OF the note she addressed me pres
sing great surprise that her husband had sent
II request so unusual and with an air of in
dependence observed that she did not " know
about paying over money under such crcum-
stances To "A mere stranger.
Desiring not to moruiy her unnecessarily
by making explanations in the presence of
others, requested her to step into IA vacant
room near at hand, aud, after closing the
door, sand in low tone.
1t is an extremely painful thing for me
Mrs. NJ, but as you do not seem Inclined
to comply with your husbands order, |
must tell you plainly that the money was
taken from the mails by him. There is no
mistake about it. lie has had mail key
which have lust recovered, and has made
full acknowledgment OF his numerous de
predatlons beg you to bear this dreadful
news with iortitude. No one will think less
of YOU ON account of his dishonest conduct "
expected to see the poor woman faint i'm
IucpidatrlN, and had mentally prepared my
self for cSry emergency; but, a moment
after, should have been more likel, T. have
lollcn into that condition, if astpni,hmrnt
could ever produce such an eject, Tor aa
soon as had finished what was Slyin.. she
stood, II possible. more erect than before, aud
With some fire in her eye, and one arm
akimho, she replied, in a spirited manner
" W oil II he has done that. he'~ = dnrued

IA" gave up tho money, however, ,puu
after, aud although the rockle-sucss display
ell in the speech above quoted seemed to
make 1t probable that she was implicated in
her husbands guilt, it afterwards appeared

TnE Two HEIRS" remember" SAYS
late postmaster general of the United States.
" the first time | visited Burlington, Vt, as
judge of the supreme court. At the time
left, there were two families of special noto
for their standing and wealth. Each of
them had a son about my own age. was
very poor and these two boys were very rich.
During the long years of hard toll which
passed before my return, | had almost for
gotten them. They had long ago forgotten
me- Approaching the court house, for the
time, in company with several gentlemen
of the bench and the bar, | noticed, in the
court house yard large pile of old furniture
about to be sold at auction The scenes of
early boyhood, with which was surrounded,
prompted me to ask whose it wasl [ was
told it belonged to Mr., j. Mr.. j rem
enber a family of that name, very wealthy;
there was n son, too can it be he = | was
told that it was even so. lie was the son Of
one of the families already alluded to. He
had inherited more than | had earned, and
spent it all and now his own family was re-
dnced TO roal want and his very furniture
that day to be sold for debt. | went
into the court house suddenly, yet almost
glad that was born poor. was soon absorb
ed in the business before me. One of the
