Some years ago it was my fortune to become acquainted with a profes sional detective. He was not of the elegant sort, whose labors are confined only to the exposure and punishment of crimes of the higher grades, hut he was a man who, to use his own language to me one day, was “ ready for anything.” He told me several stories of his experience. He did not present documentary evidence of their authenticity, arid some of them were too much for my belief. Others were plausible enough to be true, and as the man always appeared to have plenty of money, I concluded that he must be an expert at the business. One evening he told me bis expe rience in working up a case of rob bery, which I will endeavor to give, as nearly as possible, in bis own words: A dry-goods merchant on Broad way had lost a considerable amount of property at various times, but on no one occasion was there a large quantity taken. Of course the clerks in the establishment were suspected, but there was no way of discovering whether they were guilty or not. A close watch had been set on them, but nothing could be discovered. I was engaged to work up the case; and to enable me to do so, I was em ployed in the store as an extra clerk and salesman? It was thought that the foreman and the floor-walkers might be guilty of the robbery, and, therefore, they were not taken into the secret. The head of the house explained, however, that I was a rel ative of his wife, and had been thrown upon him to provide for. It was therefore understood that I was not to be required to work very hard, and was to be allowed to go out whenever I asked permission. With this understanding, I went to woik at my new business. I did not know anything about dry goods, nor about selling them, and consequently they put me upon the commonest ar ticles, which were not in very great demand. This gave me plenty of time for looking around and observ ing the habits of the clerks. I became acquainted with one after another, hut had no headway for sev eral weeks in discovering the secret. I accompanied the clerks to their rooms occasionally, and sometimes we were at the theatre together. I knew the salaries that were paid in the establishment, and I knew just how much money each man could afford to spend, and my object was to find out what man among them was living beyond his income. All of them appeared to be quiet, well behaved young men. Some of them were members of the Young Men’s -Christian Association, and others pa tronized the Mercantile Library, and spent most of their evenings'there. Three or four were a little inclined to fast lives, but evidently did not have money enough to carry out their wishes. After a time I found out that one, who was the most quiet and unobtru sive of the whole lot, seemed to be living a little beyond his means, On him I fixed my suspicion, and watched him closely, both in the store and out of it. He and I became fast friends. We went about the city together—visited the theatres and beer gardens, and on Sundays took a trip to Coney Isl and, where we occasionally spent sev eral dollars in entertaining ourselves and chance acquaintances; but the young man, whom I will call Jobn sod, was constantly on his guard, and whenever I proposed any new amuse ment, or any additional expense, he always opposed it, and said that he could not afibrd it; though somehow he did generally afibrd it before we got through. I found he had a sister living in Harlem. Occasionally, but not often, she called at the store. She rarely bought anything, and never remained longer than a few minutes. He vis ited her every day, though sometimes a week or two might intervene be tween his journeys to the place where she lived. Several times, when he was absent, and I knew he was to be away for the evening, I visited his room and searched it carefully; but never a thing could I find to impli cate him in the robbery. Not a scrap of silk or lace, or anything of the sort, could ever be discovered in the room. I next managed to be introduced to his sister, and of course I pretended a great liking for her. She was liv ing in a very quiet way, in a board ing-house, and was a teacher, on a small -salary, in one of the public schools. Having ascertained her sal ary, and calculating her expeuses, making an estimate of the value of her clothing as nearly as I could, I was satisfied that. she was living somewhat above her salary. One day Johnson told me he was going with bis sister to a school pic nic. He had obtained leave of ab sence from and, I thought it an excellent wlTtr to make investi gations. So I went to his sister’s boarding-house, enquired for the young lady, and, of course, M as told that she was away. I explained to the landlady that I had received a message saying that she would be at home several hours earlier than she had expected, and that I was to meet her that afternoon to go on another excursion. I said it was about time for her to reach home, and, if the landlady had no objection, I would w ait iu the parlor. As I had been there frequently, and the landlady knew me, she made no objection. Luckily, she went out a few minutes after, and this gave me more freedom to operate than I bad expected. I immediately went to the young lady’s room—of course it was very im polite for me to do so—and searched it thoroughly. It is of no us telling you all I found there, unless you have never been in a lady’s room, and do not know what it contains. She had a very good wardrobe—better than most young women in her position. It struck me as very odd that she had four dresses of rich black silk, which did not appear to have been made a very great while. Four dresses of black silk are a pretty good supply for a school-teacher on a small salary, and I made up my mind that the silk came from the dry-goods store where Johnson was engaged. There is a great; difference between believing n thing qrid proving it. You may be certain of it from the circum stances, hut it may not be very easy for you to go into court and show its reality. Now, here was my predica ment. I thought four silk dresses were too many for one young lady, just as I once thought, when I searched a man’s trunk, and found fourteen coats of different sizes, and no trousers or vests, that it was a re markable wardrobe for a man bo have. But how was Ito get at the fact, and show the connection be tween the wearing apparel of Miss Johnson and the Broadway dry-goods store ? To help matters along, I made love to Mias Johnson in the regular way, referred to my relations with the dry goods house, and obtained an en dorsement from the head of the firm, as a relative of his wife. I was get ting along well, only 1 didn’t want to propose and get an engagement, be cause that might make the situation a little awkward. I deferred the day of proposal, on the ground that my uncle in the country, from whom I had expectations, was opposed to my marriage, except to a lady of his choosing; and that I should be ob liged to wait until he had handed in his cheeks, which would be before a great while, as he bad a4ovely cough, and the rheumatism, supplemented with the dyspepsia and gout, so that the situation was perfectly charming. Johnson approved of my attentions to his sister, and of coarse we became warmer friends than ever. All this time I was stndying to en trap the two,.so as to fasten the rob bery of the dry-goods bouse upon them. One day I pretended a great admi ration for a certain kind of silk I had seen at the store. I told Laura that it suited her complexion exactly, and was just the dress she ought to wear. It was a light-colored silk, of a pecu liar shade, which had been made ex pressly to order for the dry-goods house, and I knew that they had the monopoly of it, I spoke about it several times, and said I hoped, one of these days, to be able to present her with a dress of this sort, but did not know when it would be, as my income, just at that time, was too small for any lavish expense. Love for me made the girl incau tious. Four or five days later, twen ty to thirty yards of this silk were missing from the store, and in a week or more, when I made a call, Laura surprised me with a dress of the ma terial I had so much admired. 1 praised it, and I praised her, and she was happy. I invited her to accompany ine tho following evening to a theatre, and told her she must wear that dress— that I wanted her to be tho prettiest and best dressed woman there; and, dressed in that, I know she would be. We went to the theatre, and after wards to Delmonico’s, where 1 had arranged to be shown to a private room for supper. I had invited her brother to join us, and to prevent his suspecting anything, I told him that the day before I had received fifty dollars from my unde, and was goingW Have a pleasant time with) out regard to the expense. But her brother was not the only person to be there that evening. The head of tho firm was-waiting where he could see us enter, and with him was a policeman. Our supper was brought, and was progressing finely; we had each taken a glass of champagne, and pos sibly two glasses, and as the servant came into the room bringing some thing I had ordered, he was fol lowed by the head of the firm and the man in blue. Johnson was ar rested for theft, and his sister for be ing an accessory to the theft. Both turned pale; the young lady fuinted, so that we had to dash water iu her face—seriously injuring the elegant dress she wore. Johnson stoutly denied his guilt. He was taken from the room before bis sister recovered. When she came to her senses, we told her a pardonable falsehood, and said that he had confessed everything. She supposed our statement true, and then acknowledged that she had first urged her brother to the com mission of the theft, in order to grat ify her love of fiuery. h an eye to economy, sho had induced him, when stealing on her account, to take enough to pay for making up the material, so that she would not be subject to any expense at the dress maker’s. Johnson maintained his innocenoo until his sister'told him that she had made a confession. Then he ac knowledged liis guilt, and explained how the robheiies had been carried oh. He had managed to ingratiate himself with the porter who swept out the place after the day’s work was over. During the day hie would fold the silk he intended to steal in to a bundle that might resemble a lot of waste paper, watch his chance, and throw it into a place just large enough to receive it, under a shelf a few inches above the floor. When the porter swept the store he brought out the package with his broom, taking care to have a sufficient quan tity of waste paper and rubbish lying near to prevent attracting attention to the package. In this way he would get it outside and take it to his home; where Johnson would call for it. The porter received some thing for his efforts in the cause of dishonesty, and the stolen property would be taken to Laura’s house, whence it would go either to a dress maker or a receiver of stolen goods. The porter was arrested an hour later, and both he and Johnson re ceived the .punishment due to them for their crime. As for the girl who was the cause of the theft, she was allowed to escape, on condition of leaving the city immediately. The firm would have proseented her, bad it not been for my intercession. I liked the girl, and was ashamed of the trick I had played upon her; but then, you know, it was in the interest of justice, and a man ought to do anything for the sake of honesty. It is a Vttle off color to make love to a girl, and pretend you want to marry her, just for the sake of en trapping her into the disclosure of a crime; but this is the way of the world, and anybody who thinks dif ferently does not know the whole duty of a detective. Why, I have been to a fellow whom I suspected, and told him that his wife and chil. dren had boen killed by a railroad accident, and got him worked up to a terrible condition of anguish. I did it just to throw him off bis guard, make him a little crazy, perhaps, and then, while ho did not know what he was about, 1 would accuse him of a crime, and get him to own up.

Crowding Matters too Closet “ Did I ever tell you how I eame to stop selling rum and became a temperance man?’’ “No.” “Well, if you won’t tell the story after raa, giving names and locality, I will give you the facts.” “In company with Mr. 8., I was engaged in trade in D., a few miles from the city of Boston* some twenty five years ago. We had a general assortment of goods, ofsuoh as are generally kept in a oountry store. Liquors donbtidlted a part of our stock in ti ade, and were kept in standing casks in a separate room. Among our Hquors we had one cask of cheap and miserable stuff which we usually drew for loafers who had bnt little character and less money. Across the street, in a handsome and well furnished mansion, lived a gentleman of education and fair standing in so> ciety, although a very hard drinker. He was a good, custamerof ours. “ When he ctlled for a drink we always drew from the best we had. “ One day he oame in, and we were quite busy at the moment. He slip ped into tbe liquor department and helped himself, and most unfortunate ly, as it turned out, he drew from the adulterated cheap liquor. It suited him better than any ho had drank before. The nerves of the stomach, almost paralyzed by the constant contact of alcohol, needed some ad ditional poison to wake them up and bring them to a stat e of comfortable exoitement. The vile mixture he had for tbe first time and by accident got hold of suited him exactly, and short' ly after he got home he sent a sorvant over with a demijohn for a supply of the particular article he had drank. “ For a time I was perplexed,” said the narrator, "and hardly knew what to do. I disliked to send such vile liquor to a tnnu of character; but after debating the matter for a while, I concluded that a man ought to be the best judge of what he needed or wanted, and so I filled the order. — Some four or five days after, he came into the store and asked if I had any good cordage, suitable for a clothes line, as his wife, he said, wished one. I furnished him one he said would do, and he left for home. I thought no more of the matter, as there was nothing unusual in his appearance. In an hour or two afterwards his daughter rushed into tne store with the cry, ‘Oh, do run over to our bouse, for father has hanged himself 1’ I was across the street in an instant, and rushing to the front door, found the unfortunate man hanging to the stair rail, to the top of which be had at tached the rope. He was qilitc dead. Of the grief of the bereaved family I need not speak. Of my own feel ings you may judge. I had furnished the liquor that had maddened him, the rope that hanged him, and was called upon to cut down the dead victim of my own infernal traffic, and it all hap pened within the space of one week. I never sold liquor since,” said the gentlemen, “except to part with my share of stock on band to my partner in trade, on any terms he might name. It was crowding things together rath er too dose for me. The above is a simple statement as rolated by the person thus led to aban don the sale of liquors. I have given the foots as nearly in the gentleman’s own words as a pretty good memory will unable me to do.— Ripley Ncuns. JeF-fubsom’s Tun Rules.—Jeffer son’s ten rnles are good yet, especially so for those who have the training of the pupils in our public schools. They are so short and concise, and embody so much of value that it would be well if they were clipped out and put where we could see them often. They read as follows: Never put off till to-morrow what you can do to-day. Never trouble another for what you can do yonrself. Never spend your money before you have it. Never buy what you do not want because it is cheap. Pride costs raoro than hunger, thirst and cold. We seldoqt repent of having eaten too little. Nothing is troublesome that we do willingly. How much pain the evils have cost us that have never happened. Take things always by the imooth handle.
