told him who had travelled here. "They
couldn't have left the train here, at any
rate," he said and knew that as we'll
as he did.
But you have guessed the end. During
those few minutes we stopped on the
line, the two thieves -darkening the
lamp even after / had left them, and
using their own key-had left the car
riage under cover of the darkness, man.
aging their escape In their black dress
out into the blackness of the night as
cleverly as they had managed their theft
and subsequent concealment. But how
could they have depended on this unus-
ual delay-this exquisite opportunity
given them in the utter darkness, close
to the city yet at no station When /
officially made my deposition, and exs
plained the cause of my stoppage, some
thing of the truth seemed to break upon
us all but ii wasn't for good while
that 1t settled into certainty. Then 1t
got clear to everybody that the old
scoundrel had duped us more ingenious
ly than the younger ones. AS the inca

blind that she had to peer through her
glittering glasses, with eyes always half
closed, and so hungry that 1 had to stop
the train for q luncheon basket he had
played upon us the neatest trick of all.
Where on earth were the thick iron
gray hair and whiskers by which we
were to have identified him? But by
the time the police saw the whole thing
clearly it was too late to follow up the
clue to him.
The cab which had taken the eccen-
trio old lady with her parcels and flow
ers from Euston was lost in the city,
and could not be tracked. A high
reward was offered for information, but
no one ever won it. My firm belief is
that it was no ligitimately licensed cab

NICELY SWINDLED.

EUGENE LAWRENCE, a young
IL American of enormous wealth, had
moderate passion for gambling, and an
immoderate passion for diamonds. Con-
seduently he lost considerable money at
play, and paid out great deal more in
buying up precious stones. But for
these two passions of his this story
would never have been written.
1t was at Paris that Lawrence first
met the Count de Rohan, and fell in
love with his diamond ring. 1t was at
Madame Duquesne's, and in this wise.
Madame was female gambler of wealth
and position. Her villa was just out of
Paris, on the Clichy road; and here
assembled every evening quite number
Of choice spirits, ladies and gentlemen,
drawn together by common love of
play. At Madame Duquesne's, indeed,
gaming might be said to be carried on
in its most moral and respectable, yet in
its most reckless, form. Thousands of
francs changed hands there every night.
Eugene had driven out to the villa
one afternoon with friend, and, just
pour pasSer le temps, game of ecarte
was proposed. A stranger sat down
opposite madame, and on Eugene's
right, and was introduced as Count de
Rohan. He was slender, well-dressed
man, polished and reserved, yet a gen.
tleman rather in the worldly than the
broad sense. There was something in
the dark face, the cleaning eyes, and
the sneer which, despite the heavy
,mustache, showed itself perpetually
upon the thin lips, that was fascinating
while it was repulsive-a something
which seemed to mark the man "dan-
gerous." AS the cards were dealt, and
the count reached forward to take his
hand, Eugene's attention was suddenly
drawn to the ring which he wore upon
the little finger of his left hand,-a
diamond of great size, and of wonderful
brilliancy and beauty. No man with
such ring could easily pass himself of
for poor man. To one at all versed in
the matter of diamonds, the stone was
unquestionably genuine, and worth, al
the very least, fifty thousand francs
The young American had, as has been
said, a passion for diamonds, and had
bought many. Here was stone finel
than any he had ever seen outside the
crown jewels. He could not keep hii
eyes offit. He played so stupidity tha
madame rallied him repeatedly, and his
partner grew at last positively angry
all the while the ring occupied his atten
ton to the exclusion of all else. 1
fascinated and bewitched him, just as q
beautiful woman might have done. 1
seemed to him that he would have solC
his very soul to possess it.
Other guests dropped in after while
and dinner was served. Eugene man

A man living at Montreal obtained
two young seals, and after feeding them
about year they became very tame, and
would 60 into the house and stay an
hour or two by the fire, and then go
out and take swim in the st. Lawrence
returning again to the house and strik-
ing their fiippers against it to gain en-

them off, and gave them to steambo
pilot to carry 40 or so miles down the
river, which was done, but the next
morning the seals made their appear

THE LEGAL TENDER QUESTION.
IN. Y. Sun.1

M 4 Souu'J
The following letter relates to SUBJ
ject which the people ought fully to
understand
Sir: Certain parties in this town deny
that the legal tender question was decided
In the United states
ing the opinion, and that afterward Justices
strong and Bradley were added to the SUI
versed in the same case between the same
issue, publish all the facts in answer to this
IUniow, VI, May II.
On the 9th of November, 1869, the Su-
preme Court Of the United States decid-
ed, in the case of Hepburn VS.. Grisworld,
that the Legal Tender act of 1862 was
imperative as to all contracts for the
payment of money made prior to its
date, and that such contracts could
only be discharged by payment in gold
or silver. Chief Justice Chase delivered
the opinion, which was concurred in
by Justices Nelson, Clifford, Grier, and
Field. A dissenting opinion was de-
llvered by Judge Miller, which was
concurred in by Justices Swayne and
Davis. These eight judges constituted
the full bench. Formerly the number
was nine. A law of Congress had been
paSSeO, winch pEOVAOeu IL any Oh the
nine left the bench for any cause, their
places should not be filed until the
number fell below seven. After the
decision was made, which we have re.
ferred to, the law of Congress was 80
changed that the former number of
nine Judges was restored.
Judge Grier left the bench, Presi-
dent Grant ON Feb. 10, 1870, appointed
Judge Strong Of Pennsylvania to his
place. Judge Wayne of Georgia,
member appointed Gen. Jackson, had
died, and on march Fl, 1870, Grant put
Judge Bradley of New Jersey in his
place. a.. ,a,
The newly constituted court was now
ready to grapple with the legal tender
decision of November, 1869, which,
by the by, was not delivered till
Jan. 20, 1870. On May !, 1871, in the
case of Kox vs. Lee, the Court decided
that the Legal Tender act was appli-
cable both to contracts made before
and after its passage. This opinion
was concurred in by Justices Miller,
Davis, Swayne, Strong and Bradley.
Those who dissenled from the opinion
were Chief Justice Chase and Justices
Nelson Clifford, and Field.
