The Figures of Thievcry.

Receivers of stolen goods of all classes
do a large business in New York but
it is impossible to say what is the value
of the property which annually passes
through their hands. In the last report
of the Police Commissioners it is stated
that during the year Of 1870 the amount
Of property lost was 81, l51 1926 so, of
which 1919, 004 90 was recovered, leaving
a total loss of 5000, 800 So | have had
occasion to show in prior articles that
the statistical system OF the Commits
sioners is extremely faulty, and especially
that it does not present true exhibit Of
the amount of property annually passing
into the hands of thieves but these fig
ures are of moro value in estimating the
business OF fences. Although compila-
ton is made together of property both
lost and stolen, the figures represent the
latter chiefly, and it is certain that of
this nearly all, both of that recovered
and that which is represented as total
loss, passed through the hands OF the
fences. 1t is equally certain that it is
only small part of the plumber which
was deyourcd by those beasts Of prey I
very much doubt the accuracy of the
Police figures for 1870, as in 1865 the
amount of property lost by the same
showing was 81, 755, or SO, and the de-
crease to less than one-quarter that
amount last year is unnatural, even ad-
hitting that crime is decreasing in the
city when the reverse is the truth. L
claim that the reports of the Commits
sioncrs for a number of years, with other
facts in the exhibit for 1870, show that
the property stolen in that year was at
least thrice that reported as lost, and
that from all sources the fences of New
York do business Of five million dol
lars per annum in the real value of the
goods handled. Of course the amount
Of money changing hands is much less
than this, for no fence was ever induced
to pay more than half price for stolen
property and every one who buys from
him insists on having at least third of
the market rate as a margin for the extra
risks incurred. -Ercta0ge.

VINO has not heard of MooRE's RURAL
NEW YORKER, whose twenty years OF
success and of usefulness have taught
our people the important facts of Agri-
culture and their kindred sciences, and
created departments for the naturalist
the herdsmen, the gardener, the dairy
man and others. But this is not all. The
farmer has found it paper for his family,
full of instruction and interest, and civ.
ing varied information in literature and
the arts. It's moral tone is of the high
est, and its domestic department such as
the farmers wife finds most useful. The
issue for 1872 will appear in more con-
venient form, both for reading and bind
ing, though it will still be larger than
Hnpcrs' Weekly. The price, however,
las will be seen by the advertisement in
another column, is reduced to 50. 50 per
year, and only $40 to clubs. This must
still more largely increase the popularity
of journal already in advance of all
others in its sphere.

GAN is forgiven and forgotten" said the
Colonel cheerfully. "Ignatia and tho child

scOundre has the shadow Of claim upon her.
The evening was passed pleasantly and with
out restraint, No further allusion was made
to Captain Holm, and Colonel Rodruth told
stories OF his Indian life, charming his hearers
into forgetTulness OF IgnNtia's proHigato hus-
band.
At about o'clock the next day Colonel Red
ruth, Ignatia and the little Georgia took their
leave Of Miss Redruth, and drove away from

for the mail down train.
The gray dusk was falling when they
steamed into the station at Huntingdon. A
porter entered and lighted the ceiling lamp
and went out again.
Suddenly two young men came sauntcring
along the platform.
One approached the door of tho coach occu-
pied by Colonel Redruth's family and looked
in, A guard came forward and addressed the
young men, and ushcred them into the very
carriage occupied by the returned soldier.
Ignatia hurriedly drew her veil over her
and panic-strickcn. Colonel Redluth noticed
that she seemed to cover in the shadows Of
her corner.
The next instant the train was once more on
its swift way to the southwark.
Colonel Rodruth looked at the intruders
closely. One of them was an ordinary looking
young man in military uniform, with n loud
laugh and pompous manners. The Colonel
did not bestow upon him second glance.

afford striking instances of the degrad-

in America is Niagara. At its base
there is an argillaceous bed of rock
which is constantly being worn away by

In sea-sholl cradle by the Dough
