SELECTED STORY.
TIE THLL-TALE DIAMOND.
A LEAF roM A DETECTIVES LIFE.

On the night Of January 10, ls-,
the Clifton bank was entered by bur
glars, who made good their escape with
$4,000 in their possession. AS soen
as the robbery became knewn, l re
paired to the bank and sought the
President, to whom I presented my
credentials and made known my inten
ton Of commencing work at once. The
old gentleman readily acquiesced, and
together we passed into the main Office,
where several spruce-looking men were
scratching away as unconcernedly as il
they had not been engaged in any
animated discussion of the robbery only
a minute before. glanced at them
sharply, but saw nothing suspicious il
their looks, end concluded it would be
a waste of time to question them.
I examined tho lock of the door
opening upon the street; and found il
had not been tempered with, although
the first arrival had found the door ajar
l next turned my attention to q door
opening upon the rear and found il
securely locked, in which condition ii
had been, SO the President assured mo-
since the night before:
"Who has charge of the key Of this
door?" I enquired.
"Mf. N, the Cashier, has one
and our Janitor the other"

The clerk addressed was about to
obey, when sudden thought struck me
and called him back.
'You need not trouble Mr.. NJ
but if the janitor can be found ask
him to step down for minute or two.
In less than two minutes the clerk
returned with the janitor-a broad
shsuldered Irishman, whose answers te
my Questions were given in such a
straight forward MANNER that l at once
exonerated him ffurti all blame.
sYou lock UP after the clerks have
gone home, do you not :" I inquired
looking the man in the eyes:
Yes, sometimes I does, an some
times doesn't" was the laconid aits*er

The new liquor law has operated like
an Alternative medicine in our county,
So far we have heard efno application
fer license-tho reason we are net aware
of-probably for inability to procure
the bend required; although it has been
limited and what's hint worth y that the
trodbls lies not only in that but the
difficulty in leasing property In which
to carly dn the traffic, as well as lack
of confidence oh tie part Of dealers that
they might be able to eehdact the
business without 'knowingly" violating
the provisions of the law.-Moryas,

Peace.

The dispatches of Saturday announcing
that Spain has fully yielded to the just claims
made by our Government in the Virginius
case, are fully confirmed by later and fuller
intelligence. The terms of the adjustment
are fully set forth in our telegraphic columns
The probability that the serious complica-
tions which threatened, a few days since, to
involve the two nations in an expensive war,
have been satisfactorily adjusted by negotia-
ton, is matter for sincere congratulation.
Had President Grant and Secretary Fish
yielded to the storm of Indignation that first
swept over the country, or been led to pursue
another course, by the malicious assaults of a
certain class of newspapers, we should not
only have had war upon our hands with its
long train of disasters, but we should have
caused the overthrow of the struggling Re-
publican government in Spain and restored
the Bourbons.
The comment of the New York Tribune
on the announcement OF the success of the
negotiations that ''We must not delay
our congratulations to the Administration,
which has deserved welbof the country" is
the hearty response of every citizen who is
not SO violent a partizan that he cannot APP
preciate the ability and tact exercised by Mr.
Fish or the dangers through which he has led
the country.
