was but o poor clue upon which to hang
hope Of pursuing the search to successful
issue, and the result only proves what may be
accomplished by resolute and expert detec-
tives, when added to the esprit 1u corps, which
exists among them is the grand incentive
of large reward. These two men immedi-
ately became lost tc, almost everything
save contemplation Of mems feet. They
walked steaithily behind all the tall men they
met, endeayoring to catch a glimpse OF the
soles Of their boots, hoping to see some pro-
truding tack which might lead to o discovery.
Days Of weary and fuitless search passed.
They had inspected the soles of almost every
individual who walks our streets without avail,
when the merest chance revealed what they
had sought so long and valnly. Having
sauntered together into the City Hotel,
about two o'clock, while most of the guests
were seated around the long tables in the
readingroom, or gathered in COSY knots con-
versing on the topics of the day, they sat
down to observe and compare notes. Pres
entity officer Farrell observed large man,
sitting on the opposite side Of the table,
with one foot resting on his knee. he imme-
who seemed to be endeavoring to bend
down tack in his boot with the end
of his penknife. The intense satisfaction and
surprise of the two detectives may be readily
imagined. Here was q man who answered
their idea of the robber exactly. he was tall,
long-Gmbed, and there from the centre OF his
boot, protruded steel tack. To quietly walk
round to where the man sat, to touch him On
the shoulder and whisper in his ear that he
was a prisoner, was the work OF moment.
The manner in which the man started, trem-
bled and turned pale, would have convinced
them of his guilt had they seen no tale-telEng
tack. Without useless words they caused the
man to walk with them to the chief OF polices
Office; after few attempts at prevarication, ne
made full confession. It seems that going to
the bank to inquire the rate Of exchange, he saw
thehlerk leave his desk, and through the wire
gauze detected the money envelope lying on the
ledger. a wild impulse seized him to possess
it, and quick as thought he reached over, dis
placed the gas bracket, grasped the envelope,
replaced the bracke., a1d noiselessly left the
bank. He stated further, that he had been
greatly surprised at the large amount contain
ed in the envelope, and seeing that the notes
we're all numbered, had cut open the mattress
in his room at the City Hotel, and thrust them
in, hoping to leave the city in a few days un-
observed with his prize, to wait until the affair
had blown over, and he might offer the notes
with impunity. On repairing to the City Hotel,
the officers, after private conversation with
Mr.. Morse, the proprietor, obtained the proper
key to the room, and were soon in possession
Of the prize which they had 80 industriously
sought, and the loss OF which had been 80 ab-
sorbing topic of conversation. On examin-
ing the envelope it was found that al the notes
we're safe, there being fifty $1,000 bills IN the
package.

COUNT BISMARCK AND THE IsRAEI1TEs.-Count
de Bismarck, who had been requested by the
Alliance Israelite, Ct Paris, to interpose with
the government of Prince Charles in behalf Of
the Jews perHecuted in Roumania by the agents

Gentlemen The Prussian Government has
given fresh instructions to its representative
at Bucharest to use his utmost influence to
ton which they enjoy in countries that are
under legislation founded on principles Of
humanity. am, besides, firmly convinced
that the intentions Of Prince Charles entirely
concord with our views, and that his highness
will, by his firm determination, promote the
development of the constitution of his coun-
try, which will render easy to the government
the exercise of benevolent protection over all
classes Of the population. BISMARCK.

be required to tell the story OF his own shame.

Mr.. Curtis, in his speech in defence Of Presi-
