Bank r Not long ago the directors of the Bank of England were much per plexed and not a little amused when the secretary read to them, at their usual sitting, the following ill-spelt and somewhat carious letter: Two Grentlemin off Bank England: .Too think yow is all safe hand your . Bank is seafe, butt i knows buttur. I bin inside the Bank thee last 2 nite "And you nose nuffin abowt it. B i nm nott a theaf, so hif yeo will mett mee in the gret squar rom, werh arl the mcneiys, at twelf 2 nite He ix plain orl yo yeow, let only 1, or 2 cum ilown, and say nuffin 2 nobody Jon Smiff. Thejjetter having been duly read, was, as'might lie expected, the topic of conversation and suggestion for some little time. Others thought that under the apparently ignorantly written letter a deep mystery washicU den; but all agreed that the safest way" was to put the letter with proper instructions into the "hands of the "detectives.' The detectives looked grave. There was a plot at work, they saw; and with their usual pen etration they at once penetrated the deepest depths of the iniquity. There is a very large room under ground, where the. huge wealth of the bank is deposited millions and millions of English sovereigns bars of gold, and hundred-weights of sil yer, with-myriads of notes. The de tectives, of course, knew that this room must be tbe place which the writer of the letter had designated as the "gret squar rom." It is full of treasure. Tbe floor is of solid stone Savement, and its walls, roof and oors are of wrought-iron and steel. All the -night Jong detectives were ecreted in the room, but thev saw .nothing and heard nothing, with the exception that some one said they heard, about one or two o'clock, a Strange noise they could not account tor. The next night was the same, and the next, and the next; and when the board day of the bank came around the .whole of the bank direc tors would have treated tlie affair as -an idle attempt to frighten them had not thiir attentionibeen more strong ly called to the subject by the follow ing incident: A heavy chest had been forwarded addressed to the "Directors of the Bank of England." The chest was of course, opened before them at once such a thing being very unus ual and found to contain a large packet of most valuable papers and securities which had been safely do posited in the vault With them the following letter: T the Directors of the Bank of Eng land: - Gentlemen My husband, who is an honest man, wrote to you last week and told you that he had found a way which he believes is only known to himself of getting into your strong-room, and offered, if you would meet him there at night to ex plain the whole matter. He had never taken anything from that room except the inclosed box. You set detectives upon him and he took the box to show that he could go there, whoever might watch, if he chose. He gives you another chance. Let a few gentlemen be in the room alone, guard the door and make everything eoure and my husband will meet you thare at midnight Yours respectfully, EiiiiEX Smith. This letter was more mysterious than the last The only thing that was evident was that the writer, "Ellen Smith," was a better writer than her husband, who styled himself "Jon Smiff." The detectives were shown the letter and acted accord ingly. Of course, they were poitei in "thexoom. In the morning they told atrange story. They said that they saw a fight at about twelve o'clock. It teemed to come, from a dark lan tera, but directly they" ran to the spot from whence the light proceeded, it want out and the striotest search had discovered nothing. The bank ohl eials became alarmed. They, how ever, agreed to do what, perhaps. would have been wiser if done at first riz., to depute a few of their number to visit the vault alone. So it was arranged that three gentlemen snould remain in the strong room ail nignt, and that-no one else should be with them. Every suitable precaution was -taken when night came. The senti nel -paced up and down outside; tne detectives were not far off; and, after tke most rigorous search had been in stituted, the gentlemen were locked 'in. At last one of them, who paced the floor rather impatiently, begin ning. to think that perhaps, after all, it was only a clever trick, cried eut: XoKghost, you secret visitor, you sidaight -thief, coma out! There is Mo- one here but two gentlemen and jmyself. If youre afraid, I give you Snfc jfljei&Qf honor as a gentleman that HhitpoiioVare not here. Gome out, 1 . It was more in' jest than in earnest yjhan Major G., for he was a military CnasfcouCed out the absurd speech, for, as we have said, he begun to sus pect that, after all, some practical joke was "being adroitly carried on, as -jaad more than once before bean per pa&rated, and he did not much like Ming victimized himself. His as ton-'iiiafot,-however, was great when, in repjy, ue uetuu a trnuugo vuico aay- 4mg: H jott.hava kept your word, I Jjrill keep minef "Put out your light, oFre one and -I'll come." U3fo6 major and his fellow directors &id.npt. much like putting out the ''light,' but they were not cowards, and .jaftersomedenror it was done. Where 4tx$?oioe came from was, however, a iiystery, for- their were no hiding Jplacea in the room, every side being $fthiok, -many-plated iron and steel; the ceiling was also of the same ma tari&L toWM il?8 Kskt was out they waited "in silence, when the mayor grasped 'jrmly in one hand a revolver and in .thotheflield the lantern and & few jutchM- For it little while a low, -r0$Ndj Httfid WMhtard, an thea .a voice, evidently that of some one in the room, said: "Are you there alone, suref The major, who cared nothing for bodily form, struch a match, and in stantly a crash was heard, and a low, smothered laugh. When the match was lighted nothing could be detected no one was there. Again the major called upon the mysterious somebody to come forth, and again a voice was heard saying, "How can I trust you now?" The Major was angry and his com panions alarmed, and after trying in vain to trace the point whence the voice proceeded, exclaimed: uWell, we'll put out the light again; only come quickly and put an end to this bother." So saying he put out the light again. A moment or two after the same grating sound was heard, then the falling of some heavy body, and the next instant a man was vjsible stand ing in the middle of the vault with a dark lantern in his hand. Of course he came from somewhere, but the nuzzle was how? A chost could .not have entered more mysteriously. The man soon spoke for himself; and the directors, who were still at a loss to explain his presence Ihere, listened in astonishment It appeared that he was a poor man and obtained a precarious living in a strange way. When the tide was low it is the cus tom of a certain class of men, un known to refined society, to enter sewers to search for any articles of value which may have been washed down into them. It is a very danger ous task, and, of course, revolting in the extreme, but tbey not infrequent ly find very precious things hidden in tbe filth. This man was one of those strange adventurers. One night he had discovered an opening leading to some place above. There was a laroe square stone, which he found could be easily raised. TT Kot I ened for some time, and finding all was silent, lifted up the stone with out much difficulty, and found, after some little investigation by the light of his lantern, that he was in the strong room of a bank. These men, . like miners, can readily determine the exact spot of ground under which j they are, and he soon had a clew to , the whole mystery. He told his wife, I who was a woman of superior educa- j tion to his own, of the whole affair, and he then wrote as we have seen to tbe directors. Down in the sewer, j he was able to hear all their move- j ments as well as if above ground, and thus was not only able to know their plans, but to frustrate them, and of course could watch his time to remove the small but valuable box, to leave the letters on the table and ' to appear so mysteriously. No one ' had thought of looking to the stone j pavement, which was supposed to I have been solid and immovable, as it , was known that there were no vaults below, although the iron walls and doors had been carefully tested. The mystery was now cleared up and the man well rewarded. Volcanic State of Society in Mexico. They tell us that the days of the ' revolution are over in Mexico, and tne blessed time has arrived when the ; swords are beaten into plowshares. J Yet the very air is quivering with suppressed excitement and everybody is alert with uneasiness. That you j may understand what they call "a; time of peace," let me cite a few cir- j cumstances: There has not been an actual revolt in this state for several months, but at the least symptom of disturbance such as a runaway norse, or the pursuit of a burglar might cause people are in a panic, business places are closed in atwink- ling of an eye, doors are double to windows with an alacritv which' could only have been acquired from frequent practice. When a riot actu ally does occur, woe to the luckless pedestrian who happens to be caught upon the streets. In an instant, Utuuro lie utu tuun tu icaiuu what it is all about, every house ew Qtore, new oiuu is securely barricaded and on no ao-' Toys, Fancy Good, count will be opened till the brief 'm j n storm blows over. So he has no re- lODaCCO and. 1lgaiS. oourse but to take to his heels, and) fokeion and DOMESTIC dodge from corner to corner, amid a s r nhnwflr of stones or bullets or both. I JL? " JFL. J JL "J-- with as much to fear from the sold iers on one hand as from the insur gents on the other. A few days ago, when the ''nickel riot,' which has been breaking out in spots all over the bodv nolitic. like a badly treated case of measleri, reached Zacatecas, everybody not among the rioters was in door and every business house se curely locked before one could say Jack Robinson. The multitude of small dealers on the market plaza, who have no doors lo lock, ran away in affright, leaving their wares en tirely unprotected. The result was that the malcontents fell to stealing with such vigor that they forgot to 'revolute," and the trouble subsided without a shot being fired. Zacate cas Cen: Springjield Republican. A Familiar Face. "Your face is very familiar," said a Colorado man to athoughtful person he chanced to sit beside in a railroad train "It strikes me that we were colleagues in the Ohio legislature in 1855." 'You are mistaken" replied the thoughtful person; "at was in the penitentiary we met. You had a cell just acros3 the corridor from mine.? "Oh, yea. I rememb9r now," said the other. "My memory is a little fickle at times, but I felt sure that we had served our state together in some caDacitv. I had cot it into my head that it was in the legislature. My mind is much relieved to know I was not there. Let us congratulate each other."
