A WOman's Scheme.

On the morning of the 17th of Febru- ary considerable excitement was created by the discovery of the dead body of a man floating in the Seine. at no great distance from the Pont Neuf.
 On it's removal to the 5lorgue for iden- tification, it was concluded by the sur geons in charge tht it had been in the water for period of not less than four weeks. and that the perfect state in whiclii It was found was attributed 10 tbe coldness of the weather. =. / An examination revealed a single abrasion over the left temple, as though maG, by some heavy. blunt instrument. Otherwise, there were no marks of vio- lence discovered.
 The apparel of the dead man, which was of fine quality, indicated he was uot Parisian, from the cast of his hand some and refined countenance, and the cut of his beard it was inferred he was an Italian gentleman--possibly of noble blood.
 Beyond small sun of money, and a single letter found in his pockets, there was nothing which could lead to his identification.
 The letter was addressed to "Nanrico Zanone, Tavistock Hotel. London," and was written by banker in the city of Dnblin, stating that the exact amount of money to the credit of NJ. Zanone was the sum of el5,O0O los. Cd. It was dated on the 12,h of September, 1865, and signed 'P. Goeff & Sons"
 After exposing the body for the usual time for indentfication, aud no one claiming il. it was buried at public ex- pense, and in few days was forgotten.
 The Prefect of Police placed in my hands the letter found on his body, and desired me to investigate the matter.
 Aside from the letter, there was no clue that would enable me to unravel the mystery. His name, rank, station, and death were alike shrouded in profound obscurity. The letter, then, was my only chance of perpetrating it.
 wrote to F. Goeff & Sons In due season the answer came. It was brief. It merely stated that M Zanone, an Ital. ian gentleman, had been depositor in their bank, but on the 29th of January, 1866, according to their books, the bal. ance was withdrawn by N. Zanone, and at his written direction from Paris, a draft on M. Godeau, of No. 90 Rue Ri- yoli. was forwarded to his address in Paris, Rue Rampant, No. 100, and that the draft had subsequently been cashed by M. Godeau. They knew nothing of their depositor's subsequent history.
 l next called upon M Godeau. He produced his books. The draft had been paid on the Sd of February. 1866, and M. Zanone had been properly iden- tified
 Then I called on the landlord of M. Zanonc, in the Rue Rampant. Nj. Za- none had given up his apartments on the Sd of February, 1866, stating that he was summoned suddenly away on i'm poriant business.
