little withered, dried-up weasel, and
followed slowly, bringing basket of
eggs with him. They entered one OF our

"What are ye givin' for eggsg
Eight CENTS" was the reply of the
counter jumper.

lat party, "and III take it in calico"
'"But j want some yarn to mend my
socks" said the old man.
t"The weather is warm" replied the
fat party, land you can 80 without
socks"
"But my boots hurt my feet" in
sisted the old man.
$50 barefooted," said she, rather
sharply. Then turning to the clerk, she
changed her tune, and remarked:
{" Young man please count out the eggs
and give me four yards OF calico to
match this ere dress"
But" the old man was going to
continue when she raised her huge index
finger and said: Henry Winter Davis
Spriggins, them are eggs are mine; the
hens what laid 'em was mine; the corn
what fed 'em was mine, and Pse going

The old man shut and the clerk
yariked off the calico.

af1erward womsn, whom we at once
perceived was his wife, but evidently
disguised, entered, and, passing around
the dress circle, took vest directly
facing him. By strange coincidence
she was right by me. Sue locked at the
couple in the bsx long and earnestly; her
face, which we could sse from cur posi-
ton, gradually changed to an expression
of the most fearful and vindictive passion
I ever beheld. Accustomed as I was to
every phase of human emotion, it appalled,
me. At last she arose and left the theRter,

1t 10 easy to say that all the socialists
are not like Hsedel, but it is hard todeal
with philosophical enthusiasts, honest
fanatics and political peyolutionists whe
seek short cut to what they call the
regeneration of society. The London
Times recognizes this difficulty when .
says that crowds have become socialists
at the bidding of hunger, misery and
ignorance. For centuries, in fact, 90
cialistie or communistie ideas have al
intervals seemed to masses of people ID
many countries the secret of the means
by which poverty might be swept from
the earth aud crime oblitersted. Inc

"I'll tell you of an incident / never
reflect Oh without regret" said retired
old detective, theother day, while reciting
some of the stirring occurrences OF the
early days of San Francisco.
90 The life of detective is not one of
excitement merely. 1t lis sometimes
crossed with events as wild and startling
as ever gave eoioring to romancs. No
emotion, no passion or phase of character,
ia hid from us. We learn to play upon
the feelings, the hates and affections of
men and women as nnarringly as the
pianist on his instrument. While the
casuist would hesitate to take advantage
of this, the necessities we are under con-
pei US to omit no opportunity which may
lead us to success.

had robbed an Havana jeweler of almost
incalculable wealth. He had fed his
native island, and we were Informed by
the Cuban authorities that in all proba-
bility he had made his way to this coast
At that time this city was full of Cubans
and adventurers from all parts of the
world. One couple, peculiar from all
the rest, excited the attention of the
then limited fashionable world, and be-
came the pets of society. Their lavish
expenditure and almost eastern magnifi-
.cence of apparel and equipage excited
the admiration and envy, it may be, of
their fashionable acquaintance. They,
too, were Oubans. The man, inheriting
all the peculiaritieso the Spaniard, was,
in personal appearance, q type of his
race,
"But can not describe to you the
woman that passed as his wife. She was

he was here, and we searched for him
necessarily. But, asif to balk our ex-
ertions and put to shame our efforts, fhis
is all we could learn. The Spaniard was
thesonly person who answered the de-
scription of the criminal. But what
folly tosuspect him!--the petted courtiear
of sneiety--the millionaire--he would
only laugh our suspicions toscorn. But
still we hung around him. Bya strange
magical influence, it was impossible to
divorce ourselves from the belief that he
was the party we were in search OF. This

Mr.. Americas Symmee has recently
estated his fathers theory OF the north
ole, in which he also has faith. He
olds that the explorer will find, after

1eather miider; when he reaches the
ighty-6rst degree he will find some
pen water; when the eighty-second de-
ne will find much open
'ater and great quantities Of wild AMI .
ials, and some water fowls; when the .
ghty-thir6 degree lis reached he will
nd the open Polar sea, two thousand
lilies in diameter, and If he will go out
ITO that sea when the weather is warm
nd genial, he will find the country that
lie Symmes theory says can Ibe found, I
large forests of timber, large rivers
I'd rich land, and the home Of more
lid animals than can be discovered
,ywhere else in creation, and water !,
wis in abundance. Mr. Symmee ar
