CHAPTER II.
TIE LAW BEGINs TO WORK.

| The police appearing upon the sceno OF
ths tragedy, at once certain preliminary
Investigations were made. Amongst other
proceedings the unhappy lady whose hus-
band the hapless man was SO soon to have
been, put the terrible investigation into
the hands of lawyer recommended to her
| by the police-inspector, and immediate
means were taken to bring the perpetrator
to Justice.
The criminal lawyer and the police were
not long in piecing together the following
particulars of the murdered mans life:-
Graham Forbes was born at Newark, and
was at the time Of his death thirty-two
years of age. He had lived in London
eince his twentieth year. Between that
time and his death, owing to ability, in
telligence, and exceedingly hard work. he
had not only made good income, but had
amassed d very considerable sum of money.
He was upon the Stock Exchange.
Arriving in London as clerk upon trial
in tho office of broker, it took him very
little time to obtain an insight into the
mysteries of broking, and before he came
of age he had completed several TRANSACT
tions on his own account. By the time he
was thirty, he had mastered his future,
and was quite easy upon that score; but
this end had been achioy d as the result of
unceasing industry and activity, conioined
to businesslike caDability not to be met
with at every street-turning in the City of
London.
Graham Forbes had even found enough
tact and strength to remain man of the
world, and, to some extent, man about
town, even while working as hard as any
man in the City at building up fortune.
His strength and health were enormous.
He appeared to be a man incapable OF
fatigue-a long-headed man, who knew the
world in which he lived.
Now it so happened at the time of bis
death that he was about to marry very
lovely woman. whose unly dowry was
little more than composed of her beauty,
added to q character quite beyond re-
proach.
Tho engagement to Margaret MayteI
was of very peculiar character. She and
her cousin had come up to London, with
their small means, in order to establish
themselves there in some way. They oc.
.upied apartments near that strange Old

Graham Forbes met her in the streets
and followed her home on several occa
sions; but all his attempts to ingratiatt
himself into her favor failed, until he founC
himself really in love with her sufficiently
to desire to make her his wife.
He proposed in letter, having ascer
tained her name from the n-porter. This
led to cautious acquaintance, which only
allowed of her hearing him faVorably al
the end of six months.
Like the perfectly cool, calm, and self
contained man as he was, be then proposed
that another six months should pass, that
both might be sure that they suited eact
other.
1t was towards the end of this seconesi1
months that he was murdered.

her upon the return of herself and cousin 4;
and we know the result.
1t appeared that the one old servant kept
by Graham Forbes had left about two days
previously to Margaret's start; and the
cousins quitting London together, it
resulted that Graham Forbes was alone in
his chambers.
It was as though destiny had been at
work; for be had refused to have the
servant replaced until Margaret's return.
lie said he should prefer lauudress, who
would see to his rooms daily; and that no
would breakfast and dine out.
THISTLE he had led for two months, to the
morning of the 27th of October, when Mar
Garet, returning to town, found him dead.
The police came to the conclusion almost
Immediately that the crime was the result
of vengeance, and not of theft.
What enemies had he, and why were
these his enemiesf These were the ques-
tions which the police were asked.
He had, as far as was known, injured no
man, damaged no ones interests. His
frank, candid, open manners invited SYM
pathy and friendliness. 1t was impossible
to recall the name of any one with whom
| he had distinctly quarrelled, or with whom
| it was known, apart from Quarrelling. that
| he was in state of enmity.
Could his approaching marriage have
created envy OF jealousy
The police made especial inquiry upon
these poin rs, but it was found impossible

CAUSES OF INSANITY.

One of the Commissioners of Public
Health in Prussia, Professor Finkelburg,
has recently been lecturing upon the
causes of insanity. Professor Finkel-
burg holds distinguished position as
doctor of medicine, which gives much
weight to his opinion on this important
subject. The alarming prevalence of the
disease in Prussia has recently turned
the attention of the authorities to an
Investigation of the causes. 1t is found
that one person in every four hundred
and fifty is affected with insanity.
Professor F. finds that amongst the
working classes the evil originates from
lack of physical and mental education,
insufficient food and unhealthy dwell
ings. The excessive use of alcoholic
liquors figures conspicuously in filling
the lunatic asylums.
Amongst the educated classes the
causes of insanity are more varied and
quite different, and often date from in
fancy. To the forcing process in educa-
ton much evil is attributed. Too much
is demanded in study and too little time
given to sleep--in fact, overwork ard
long continued mental application de-
stroy the capacity of children for re-
freshing sleep altogether, and this re-
suits in weakness of the mind and the
body, the former often preceding the
latter calamity. A purely negative edu-
cation is recommended until the child
reaches the age of twelve. AT this age
it is better prepared for rapid progress in
its studies than another who has been
put to too premature work.
Amongst grown people Prof. Finkel-
burg makes broad distinction between
men of work and men of pleasure. Ac-
tivity and suitable exercise of all the
faculties conduce to the preservation of
mental as well as of intellectual health.
The class of idlers furnish the greatest
number of hypocondriacs. The most
serious and so far the most incurable dis
eases of the brain are those that affect the
ablest and most active business men.
Softening of the brain or chronic in
fammation of that organ seems to be fear
fully in the increase amongst class
who overfatigue the mind in the pur-
suit of business and allow them
selves but little sleep or varied
emotions. 1t is therefore recon-
mended to all to try as much as possible to
vary occupations, to distract the mind as
much as possible from too absorbing
thoughts, to give the faculties agreeable
recreation, and to take free exercise in the
open air. After all the wisest know but
little about the mysterious functions of
the brain, and still less about the terrible
diseases to which it is subject. In this
country but few men have attained any
eminence in a successful diagnosis or treat
ment of this class of diseases, and with
them failure is rule rather than an ex-
ception.

Greek Wisdom.

The world has altered little these %
centuries. The same answer as Cheilon'4
might yet be made to the question,
"What is difficult? To keep silence upon
secrets, and to dispose well of leisure,
and to be able to bear un Just treatment"
When Cheilon saw the corpse of a
miser being carried forth, he said, "This
fellow lived a lifeless life, and has left
behind his life for Others" How easy it
seems, how difficult it is, to conform in
spirit and in truth to the following max
i'm of CheiIon; "To the banquets of
friends come slowly, but to the misfor-
tune with speed" Cheilon was evidently
a man of foresight, consideration, and
patience. His ideal was of virtue, and
was sound one; many a lofty profession
of religion, if barred to its real basis,
would show less worthy range of motives.
Cheilon taught "To prefer punishment
to disgraceful gain; for the one is pain
full but once, but the other for ones
whole life" "Not to laugh at a person
in misfortune" "If one is strong, to be
also merciful, so that ones neighbors
may respect one rather than fear one"
"Not to dislike divination." "To obey
the laws" "Io love quiet"
