It was rtQl rainiag aa latood at the oomor of a great London tbrnongl^e on thatimtek' ed November nicbt. Ibe gntter babbled,- the pavement i^oatened, hnmanity va* ob- literated by aOk and alpaca bat the night* wind waa oool and freah to me, aftn a day spent in a hot poUoe oonrt, heavy vitii the steam of indigo^ed eonatabliw, of damp criminals, and thctr froway friends and ftoes. I waa later than oaoal. Ihat was why I stood hesitating, and tomintc over and over the fewshilngs in my pooket, painfu ly gathered by a long day's labor as a yooog and stroggling legal praotictioner. 1 thought ofmy pow^little sick wife, waiting so loagingly for me in the dull lodgings miles away. I also considered the difficulty of earning two shilllnga, and the speed with which that sum diaappeared when invested in cals. I thooght of the slowness and un- certainty of the 'bns, crowded inside and out again of the anzioos eyes watching the clock and my mind waa made np. I call- ed a hansom from the rank just opposite to me, and jumped fn, after giving my di- rections to BO much ot the driver as I could make oat between his hat and his collar. I felt tired, hongry, and depressed, so that I was glad to drop off to sleep, and for- get weariness and worry for a little while and I remained aEconsciona of tad pave- ment and rattling rain, blurred ^Itss and misty lights, nntil the st ppage oi the cab roused me. Think iog that I had arrived at my journey's end, and wondering why the glass was not raised, I smote lustily on the rocf with my umbrella. Bat the voice of the driver came down to me through the~ tiap in a confidential wheeze and at the same time I saw that therie was a great crowd ahead, and heard that there were shouts and confusion, and that my cab wa^ one of a mass of vehicles all wedged to- gether by some impaaaable obstacle. "F'liceman says, sir," explained calby, "as there's bin a gas main hezploded and blowed np the street, and nothio' can't get this way. There's bin a many pussons bin- ]ured, sir. I'll have to go round the back fltl'AAt'fl "All right," I replied. "Go ahead, then." Do\(n slammed the trap the cab was turned end manoeuvred out of the press and I soon found myself traversing a maze of those unknown |by-way8, lined with frowsy lodging-houses and the dead walls cf factor- ies and warehouses, which hem in our main thoroughfares. I was broad awaks now, excited by tt:e news of the accident, specn latiog en its causes, and thinking of the scenes of agcny and EOirow to which it had gven rise, and of my own fortunate escape. The bantom I was in was an tmusuaJly woU- appomted one for those days. It was clean and well cushioned it had a mat on the floor mate, d of mouldy straw. Against one side was a metal match holder, with a roughened surface; bearing, as the occasion- al Htreet lamps showed me, the words "Please sirikea light. Do not injure the cab." On t ach side of the door was a small mirrcr^ placed so as to face the driver so that I coula (ce reflected therein, through the winoo ws, those parts of the street which the cib had just passed. We careered up one dreary lane and down a*. other, until, having just turned to the left into a rather wider thoroughfare, we were once more brought up. This time it was a heavy dray dischargmg goods at the back entrance of a warehouse. It was drawn up carelessly, occupying, in fact, more room than it should in that ill-lighted place, We were almost into it before we could pull up. To avoid accident, the cab- man threw his horse half way across the road and in this position pre ceeded gently but firmly to expostulate with the drayman after the manner of cabmen on such occas- ions. The surly fellow would tae no no- tice, and made co attempt for seme min- utes to give U3 room. I was too listless to interfere, and lay back in the cab, leaving the driver to get over the difficulty as he might. In the right-hand itlass, owing to our slanting positioa acrcss the road, I could «ee reflected, a few yards off, the comer of the street out cf which we bad just turned with the lamp which stood there, and above the lamp the name of the street, which, though reveisewise on the mirror, I made out u) be "Hatiraki Street." The queer name attracted me and I was won- aering wba^ colonial experience could h^ve led the builder to select it, when f saw the reflected figure of a man ccme into the light of the lamp along the road in which we stood. He was young, but dishevelled and dirty, and evidently wet through. His clothes, bad as their C3ndition was, looked somehow as if their wearer had been, or ought to be, ina better condition of body than his present one. He ataied desc lately about him for a while, as if to see whether there could be any other creature so miserable as to be lounging purposeleesly about, without an un^brtlla, in sucn a place on such a night. A neighboring clock struck eight, and he seemeid to turn his head and l^ten till the rlingour ceased. Then he inspected the sle;ves of his coat, as people aliwaya do when unduly damp, and drew one of them across his forehead, taking off his hat for the purpose, as though hot from exercise. Then he carefully produced from inside the sodden and melancholy hat a folded piece of paper and a clay pipe. He filled the pipe from the paper, restored the latter to tne hat, and put the hat on his head. Then he looked helplessly at the pipe. 1 guessed that the poor wretch had neither a match nor a penny to boy one. A thought seemed to strike him. He looked up anddehly at the lamp, and I saw his face for the firat time. I am an observer of faces. This one waa peculiarly abort and broad, with a pro- jecting, ahatp-pointed ohin, a long alit of a month, tamed down at te comera aa it was now half open in perplexity, it disclosed a conspicnoaa blank,- canaed by the loaa of one or more front teeth. The eyes were amall and dark, and half abut with a cari- ous prying air. This waa all I noticsd for now the mui began awkwardly and laJixnri- onaly to "s «aim" the lamp«poat evidentiy with a view ot getting a light for his pipe. Having got about half-way np to the top, ne inoantionsly stopped to rest, and. instantly alid to the bottbm. Patiently he bcaan all over again; and I now saw that if,he VM not iJtogether tipsy, he waa aomething very like ic.

In thia I tad fairly won myself a name both aa an advocate and a lawyer â€" often very different things â€" « hich tended to make me a richer man every day. And I am glad to be able to Bay tba*: I had added to thia reputation another yet more valuable â€" that of being an honourable and honest man. Late one afternoon, as 1 sat in my office after a long day at the Central Criminal Court, making preparations for my home- wairdtflight, a stranger was shown in to me. He sat down and began his story, to which I at first listened witb professional attention and indifference. Bat I soon became a trifle more interested for this, as it seemed, was a tale of long-deferred vengeance falling af- ter the lapae of years upon the right head such as we lawyers meet with more often in sencational novelsâ€" of which we are par- ticularly fond â€" than in the course of prac- tice. Some dozen years ago, he aaid, there had lived in a remote auburb of London an elder- ly maiden lady, named Misa Harden, the only daughter of a retired merchant akipper, who had got together a rery tolerable aum of money for a man of hia olaaa. Dying, he had left it all to hia only living relative and fnend, his daughter and on the interest thereof she managed to live comfortably, and even to save quite a third of her income. These moneys she â€" being, like many maiden ladies, of a suspicions nature â€" alwys de- clined to invest in any way, bat kept them in an oaken cupboard in her sitting-room, which cupboard ahe was accustomed to glorify for ite impregnable nature, when the danger she ran by keeping so much money about the house was represented to her. Perhaps she was fortified in her obsti- nacy by the consideration that she was not entirely alone and unprotected, though most people thought that such protection as ahe had was worae than none. It conaiated in the presence of an orphaned nephew, to whose mother, on her deathbed, Miaa Har- den had solemnly promiaed that ahe would never forsake the child. She had been aa good aa her word, and bettor â€" or wcrse for she had treated the boy with such foolish indulgence that he had grown np as pretty a specimen of the blackguard aa could be found in the neighborhood. After being expelled from school, he had never attempt- ed to improve himself or earn hia own living in any way, except' by betting (and loaing), and by mining free with certain caah of his first and only employer wbich questionable attempt at providing for himself would cer- tainly have led to his being some time pro- vided for by hia country, bat for the tears aud prayers of his aunt, and the sacrifice of around sum of her hoarditgs. if'romthat time he lived with her, and she cherished and endured him as only women can. S3old:hg him when he came home tipsy at night, puttinc him carefully to bed and for- giving nim the next morning, only to scold acd put him to bed ag«in the same evening; so with little difference, went on their lives for years. But at last this loving patience began to Vear out, and aa the aunt got older and more irritable, the nephew's little ways caused louder and more frequent disagree- mente. One morning thinga.came to a cli- max. She caught him actually trying to aet fiee the imprisoned secrete of tiie impreg- nable cupboard with a pocket-knife. Being interrupted and violently abused â€" the old lady was very ready with her tongueâ€" he turned round and atrack her. She did then and there what ahe had threatened often Of late ordered him ont of the house, and what was more, saw him out. There waa rather a scene at .the street-dcor, and the lookers-on heard him say, in anawer to j|pr vows that she would never see him agam, "When you do see me again, you'll be s:rry enough " or words to that effec!:. The last time he was known to be in the neighborhood waa about three, o'clock that afternoon, in a public-honae oloae by, which he used to bannt. He waa then in a maud- lin atate, and was deacanting to a mixed audience on his wronga and on the meanness of his relative. He farther produced the knife with which he had attempted the cupboard, and waa foolish enough to aay that "he wiahed he had tried it on the old woman heraelf, and he would too, before the day waa oat." All thia greatly amuaed hia rpugh hearers, who anppUed him well with liquor, and generally kept the game alive, until the landlord, bcKsoming jealous of the repute- tion of hia hou e, turned him out of doora. From that moment he d's appeared but the same night a horrible marder waa oommit- ted. The aunt had aent her one aervant out fcr half an hour. The girl left at a quarter to eight, and returned at a quarter paat, to find the poor old maid lying dead on the floor, while the oak cupboard was opsn and empty. SoreamiDg with horror, tne girl called in h«Jp and me among the crowd that filled the house before the police came picked up en the floor a knife, whioh he identified as the very one which the nephew, whan be knew well, had exhibited that afternoon at the publio-hpuae. He re- peated thiaevidcnoe at the aubaequoit in- qaeat, audit waa coofirmed bjr many others who knew botli the knife and ite owner. A verdict .of wilful murder waa returned against the nephew, whom- we will c»Il John Harden, but who had diaappeared completely and entirely.

I said something to this effect, and myremarka were received with a proper pride, tempered by modeaty. "He hoped he knowed hia dooty aa a man, and tried to do it." It 80 happened that I waa obliged to leave town next day, to attend to certain mattera connected withaneatatefor whichlwastrua- tee, in another part of the country. I told him thia, adding that the magiatrate would certainly aend ths case for trial, and that I should be back in town in time for the next Old Bailey sessions, and I would be respon- sible that the case should receive proper at- tention in the meantime. He merely said that he left the matter in my hands, and that if I said it would be all right, he was content, and so departed, engaging to at- tend to have hia evidence taken down the next morning. I went to the office of a brotiier practitioner on whom I knew I could rely; .handed him my written in- structions, requested him to ti^e up the caae and work it until my return, and then did what every buaineaa man ahould be able to doâ€" wiped the aubjeot altogether ont of my m'nd for the preaent. (TO BB OONTINUBD.) HOBBIBLE MUBBER WHBWYOBK. ABm THE LIBGEST CFTT. of tiM Bomethlns of the Oo^emmena World's Blggeat City. A new acheme for what we ahould call a revised city charter fi^r Lmdon is before Parliament and under public discussion. Tae preaent " city " corporation of Londcn only covers the central part, a very limited area, and outoide of that the cir.y is governed by twenty three vestries, fifteen district boards and other commissions, mak- ing fcrty local administrative bodies to govern one city. It adopte the nni-cameral system of legislation that is, it will have but one legislative body â€" a common council of 240, elected for three year4 by all voters throughout ^he city who would be entitled to vote imder the general laws of municipal elections. Voters otherwise entitled, but non-resident, may pieserve their right if they live within twenty-five miles. In this common council are charged all the authority p»scss:!d by the above-named forty boards, Eich district will elect ite own conncilmen. Members are apportioned to districto on a double basis of p3pulation andvalaationand the fiiBt election is to be held January 29, 1885. The lord mayor is to be chosen by the common council for a term of one year. Bit the aldermen of London, â€" ^time-honored office of vast dignity,â€" muat go. The board will expire May 1, 1885, except that the pre- sent members will retom their functions as justices of th^ peace during life. The sheriff of London who is liow elected by the city guilds will be elected armually by the com- mon coimoil, who will aim elect a deputy mayor. The lord mayor muat be approved by the Queen before taking office. There seems to be no provision whatever for the subject whioh troubles great American cities, namely, the executive appointmenta, and it ia not very clear what the proviaiona are â- for filling the executive agenoiea of the city. Taere ia, however, a aingnlar device for a local board in each diatriot ci^ed a district council, oonaiating of the oounciltora from that district ex officio and a body of diatrict couneillors, also ofaooa n for ttiree years. Thesa sub-divided bodies will have no power to tax or appropriate, but they may apend money ' aUooated " or allotted to tbem by tte central board. Tae Common CjunoO. is to ohooee coronera, wbo will liave salariea. The aohoola remain under the control of the existing Sshool Board. The troublewme qneation of lioenaea ia all plaoed in the handa of the jnatioea of the oity until otherwiae ordered by Parliament, and the pohoe re main aa now under the immediate control of the home secretaryâ€" that is, of the imperial government.

Thegr aad heard the soream. in the atree^ and as the woman atsggered in, McDonougfa ran to the front door to see if any ono waa puraning her. Aa he reach- ed the door he saw the wild-lo3kin|[ man with a knife in hia hand about coming m. MoDonough alammed the door and turned the key in the look. The man was not to be kept out, however. He ran around to the Twenty-aixth street entrance. The figured plate glasa door there was closed. The man struck it and shoved it with hia shoulder. He atood in the doorway for a moment, glaring aroand, and then aaw the woman cowering on the barrel. He ruahed at her, aeized her by the shoulder, and threw her ^olently to the floor. She did not cry out, and he did not aay a word. Kneelini; on one knee, he ateb- bed her three time., atriking hard each time. Then he atraightoned up, glared me- nancingly at Sweeney, who aUll atood be- hind the bar, and then deliberately plunged the knife thiee timea into hia own abdomen, lUd without a oiy fell aorosa the woman's body, dropping the knife by her aide. Miaa Ambroae had looked into the aaloon and run ont again joat after the inan had rushed in. She now came in with Police- man Murray. Mrs. Wolfe was dead. Her light-colored hair and her close-fitting black suit were wet with blood, as was the parcel she still held. "Tbat man," said Miss Ambrose, "is my sister's hosl^d. Hia name ia John Carpen- ter. He baa juat cony from priaon, where he waa sent in 1878 for stabbing a woman whom he miatook for my aiater in St. Fran- cia Xavier'a Church." Two ambulancea and the dead waggon were called. The body of Mra. Wolfe was taken to the Morgue. Carpenter and Misa Am- brose were taken to Bellevue Hoapita). Mra. Wolfe waa a handaome woman. She waa 33 yeara of age. There was a deep wound on her right temple, the right ear was severed, the aubolavian artery in the right aide waa out, and a wound on the left aide of the neck,whih canaed inatant death, cut throngh the jugular vein. The cute were made with a crescent-ahapsd ahoe knife. Carpenter is 50 years old, about 5 feet 8 inches tall, with oloae-cut gray and blask mixed hair, and dean ahaven face. He baa dull blue eyes, heavy square featurea, and the general build and expreeaion of a bruiB- er. "Yea," he said 'in a aurly tone as he lay on a streteher in Surgeon Moan's ward' "the woman I lulled was my wife. I intended to kill her. I wanted her out of the way. I wanted to die myself, because I'm tired of living." His wounds are serioaa. Miss Ambrose's cuts are painful, but not of a dangerous nat- ure. FACTS AND FIGURES. London has 3,000,000 working people.
