X-UTIIKIt ArCD THE BIRD.
Tlicsun was setting after a day
Gloomy, and wet, and chill,
Aud Mm tin Luther hurried away
From tlic garden-spot where UiewliadowJ lay
And tho lurid sunset under :!ie gray.
For hid heart was darker still.
But on a brands a bird began
To carol a little song;
Itistruclr the car of the moody man,
Sorrowing under an awful ban.
And through his heart Its music ran,
Atid It made him glad and strong.
Then It nestled Its head beneath Its wing,
And ija letly wen t to rest ;
And the time was passing afar from spring.
And the world had many a venom thing,
And none knew what the night would bring,
"With the sun gone out in the wet.
But Martin Luther bent his head,
And in his own sweet words
He blessed the giver of dally bread,
.Who conquers the dark of doom and dread ;
And he suffered himself to be gently led
By the God of thellttle birds.

The Bahhit Defalca

Correspondence Nebraska Advertiser.
New York, Jan. 24, 1S7G.
WOltUYIXG THE XOTTERY-DEALKIiS.
Tho authorities are making raid on
the lottery-dealers, and ore worrying
that honorable fraternity fearfully.
Tho Kentucky and Missouri shops
havo been shut up, and the managers
arrested ; five of the Havana dealers
have been placed in quod, and the
others are being pulled as fast as pos
sible. The method is, for an officer in
plain clothes to go in and purchase a
ticket, and then go and make his com
plaint. But very few have an idea as
to the extent of the business, or the
amount of money expended in this
kind of chance. The famous Ken
tucky Library scheme was sold five
times iu this city alone, to the extent
of over $275,000 each time, and that
was the oulyT one of a core of schemes
that were before the public, and by
no means the most rapid selling. It
is curious how the people part with
their money. For instance, there is
the Havana Lottery Ring, who take
thousands of dollars a day, from peo
ple who have no knowledge as to tl)e
responsibility of the managers, or, for
that matter, whether there is any lot
tery at all. They pay their money on
the simple say-so of men of whom
they have no knowledge, and who are
following an illegal business, at best.
One old reprobate, who lived iu Cin
cinnati, but who had an ,ofiice" here,
advertised drawings ten years one
each month of watches, horses, hous
es and money, taking thousands of
dollars a month from his victims; but
he never had drawing at all. Each
month he would go over his letters,
and select points where business was
dull, and send to some well-known
man who had bought tickets a prize.
These men would talk about it, and be
come walking advertisements for tho
old swindler. Tho law finally stop
ped him, and it is trying to stop the
regular business, hut it all amounts to
nothing. There is no way of making
a fool keep his money. The lottery
men wiil got out of jail, lay low a few
weeks and go at It again as bold aB ev
er. TILTON
was at homo New Years, looking
fresher and better than I havo known
him for three years. He has made a
great success in tho lecture field this
season, aud has materially strength
ened hi3 position. His daughters side
with him in tho difference between
Qiim and their mother, which is one
of Theodore's griefs. He insisted that
they should call upon their mother
New Year's, and take gifts to her ;
but suspecting that they came at his
instance, she refused to see them. Mrs.
'Tilton Is very hitter, and I can't blame
-her. She is tho chief sufferer in this
miserable affair. Tho Church that
liolds Beecher to be innocent treats
her as though she were guilty, aud
while it has oceans of sympathy with
Beeoher It has none whatever for her.
She la wretchedly poor, aud has had a
hard time to live.
FAILURES.
During the week there were forty
- one failures, many of them very large,
One firm that had eighteen tea stores,
in various parts of the city, went un
der, owing $000,000 more than It could
pay, the cause being shrinkage in the
value of goods and the terrible falling
off in trade. It was shown that some
of the stores, which formerly did a
profitable business, had not for a year
sold enough goods to pay running ex
penses, and that none of them had
made a cent. This failure took down
three other houses, and each of them
will carry down some smaller ones.
Tho owners of business buildings are
shaking in their shoes, for thoy don't
know from one day to another but that
their tenants may fail, and they know
very well that when a store gets emp
ty it is going to stay empty for a time.
Malf the business houses in the city
are either empty or being occupied at
half the old rates. The effect of this
is visible in everything. There has
been but very few big balls this win
ter, and the few have been thinly at
tended. Then thoso who do attend
are content to go vory modestly at
tired, and without a special display.
At the big Charity Ball, tho other
night, tho absence of diamonds was
tho most conspicuous feature. The
fact is the jewels of a great many
fashionable dames are lyiDg very safe
iu'bankers' safes, as security for mon
ey that was absolutely necessary for
the head of tho house to have to save
himself from going under and the
iron that enters Madam's soul Is the
" horrible uncertainty as to whether
the sacrifice will save him after all.
If it does not, sho has lost her dia
monds without saving her husband.
How she would like to have thoso
diamonds, it they do fail, and how
fervently will she mourn them ! Pity
the rich they are the ones who need
It. The poor are use to thin living
like tho eels that were skinned alive
they are used to it.
NIGHT WORK IX THE CITY.
Few persons over think of tho labor
BUSINESS
Continues worse than ever, if possi
ble. Why don't the people come and
buy? Don't they wear any more
clothes? Don't they eat or drink?
Why is it? Thereare a few merchants
in the hotels, and a few buyers seen
about tho wholesale houses, but the
few that come only buy just what they
have to have, to say they have a stock
and they want that little on such
terms as no merchant can live at.
The change in the rates of freight,
west, will make some difference, but
I fancy tho trouble lies deeper than
freights. It costs too much to do bus
iness here, and New York will never
get her business back till everything
comes down to hard-pan. The hotels
must drop their rates, tho theatres
must come down to ante-war prices,
and all the expenses of comiug to the
city, staying here, and getting out
again must be lowered to something
like the old times. Then people will
come hero again, and business will
revive. New York has been too
greedy, and has killed the goose that
laid Its golden egg. There is such a
thing as presuming too much on nat
ural advantages. It is to be hoped
that the the spring will bring n revi
val, but it is a dreary wait. Pietro.
It wa9 Ben. Franklin who intro
duced broom corn culture into this
country, but thousands of suffering
husbands would prefer to see the man
who introduced broom handles.
it takes to meet the convenience of a
large city. With dusk tlse laborers of
the day wend their way home, but
another army is ready to take its place.
A host of sweepers and cleauers take
possession of tue streets at dark, com
panies with broom and shovel work
on the crossings, while tho street
sweeping machines hurry and clatter
past like light artillery, the great cyl
inder brushes sweeping a swath half
the width of the street, just as a mow
ing machine rakes up grass. Then
the scavengers with their sealed wagon-tanks
ply their unsavory tasks
without, as of old, making the night
hiriious with their passage. The hun
dreds of private watchmen take up
their patrol, and the battalions of
night police file to their posts, drop
ping a man at each station as they
pas3. rScores of night reporters are
on the move, silent, unnoticed and
alert, till two in the morning gettiug
up the latest news of fire and arrest for
readers at breakfast. The work of
loading and unloading vessels goes on
by night and day all the same. The
printing offices of the morning papers
begin their work about nine in the
evening, not to close till the last cus
tomer is served across thecounter with
his batch of dailies to be left at up
town doors.
THE BECKWITH DEFALCATION.
The exposure of Mr. B. T. Babbitt's
managing clerk is a fit climax to the
cases of default during the year.
Month after month some new fraud
shocks the public, which businessmen
take with as much cooluess as the
failure of a county- customer.
In the case of Babbitt's, as every
body calls it if the criminal had no
concern in it, the matter is not to pass
off with a little hard swearing in the
private office. The defaulter has been
living for two months past in lodgings
on Tenth street, going out only in the
evenings for air.
How did the detective find out Mr.
Beckwith's whereabouts? Easily
enough. It is simply a knowledge of
feminine human nature that is the
6tock in trade of all detectives. They
don't ask "where is the man ?" the'
simpty find out where the woman is,
who is a part of the man, aud they
are morally certain to find the man as
soon as they want him. Tho detect
ive who had this matter in charge, got
an acurate description of Mrs. Beck
with, knowing that while Beckwith
himself would keep very close, Mrs.
Beckwith would be out, not only to
lake the air, but to bo his means of
communication with the outside
world, without which no man can
live. How did he find Mrs. Beck
with? Quite as easy. An old thief
would know better than to let his
wife show herself any more than he
would show himself. But your de
faulter is only an amateur. He may
be exceedingly ingenious in stealing,
but, he has never learned that more
important art of hiding. As his wife
has never been charged of any crime,
he fancies that it i3 perfectly safe for
her to go as she chooses, forgetting
the ministers of the law watch the
flight of the Eparrows as carefully as
they do that of the vultures.
Our detectivegota very accurate de
scription of Mrs. Beckwith, (he ask
ed no questions about Mr. B.) and
then went to a friend he had in Stew
art's. Had he stolen only $10,000 ho
would have gono to the cheap dry
goods stores on Sixth avenue, but, a
$300,000 defaulter's wife would be sat
isfied with nothingshort of Stewart's.
He had a friend there, a salesman,
(tho detectives have them every
where,) and giving him a desciiption
of the woman, asked him if sho camo
there?
"Every day," was the auswer.
"Let me stand here, by you, and
when she comes in, nod."
"All right."
And there that detective Btood all
the day, as patient as a statue. Fin-
allv. about four o'clock one day, a
woman camo in, and the salesman
nodded. She made some purchases,
and went out, not knowing that the
gentlemanly person just behind her
was following her and would follow
her should sho go to Chicago. She
did not go to Chicago, but she did go
homo to her husband ; and the detec
tive took a room in tho house oppo
site, and ho waited and waited, till
ono night, at nine, Mr. Beckwith
went out for his airing, and the de
tective had no more trouble in taking
him than he would havo in picking
up a pin.
You see, the catching of a crimnal
is a purely philosophical matter. The
detective knows that every man has a
woman about him, and that the wo
man is certain to go to the man. He
catches the woman first.
A Desperado Killed by a Boy.
Says the Independence (Kansas)
Courier, of December 31 : From S. S.
Peterson we learn thatCal.Coker, the
half-breed Cherokee who killed Isaac
Journeycake, a prominent citizen of
the nation, some time last June, met
a similar fato the day before yester
day at the hands of a Delaware boy.
Coker's trial wqb to have taken place
yesterday, but on Wednesday he es
caped from his guards and started to
Lightning Creek to see hi9 wife. On
the way he met a young Delaware
named Love, who was the principal
witness against him riding along the
road with a sack of flour on the horse
before him. Coker at once attacked
him with a revolver. Love drew a
pocket kuifo and began carving the
desperado in return for tho pistol
shots. Every time Coker shot, the
boy would ward off the weapon and
at the same time strike his assailant
with the knife. When Coker had
emptied his pistol, both now on the
ground he drew a large knife, and
tho fight became more desperate. Fi
nally the bov with his little knife
struck the fatal spot, and Coker, the
desperado who has been for years a
terror to the people of that section,
fell a corpse at his feet. The boy,
however, was cut and stabbed almost
beyond recognition, and simultaneous
with the dying groan of the despera
do, tho brave youth fell to the ground
nearly exhausted from the loss of
blood and severe pain from his
wounds. He started on his hands
and knees for his home, a half mile
distant, but luckily had not proceed
ed far until he met an acquaintance.
After his first expression of horror
and surprise at the appearonce of the
intrepid young fellow, the stranger
asked if ho had met Coker. "Yes,"
replied the boy, "he is down the road
there watching my sack of flour."
The boy was taken home and medical
aid summoned, and it is now probable
he will recover. Every peaceable cit
izen of the Nation will rejoice over
the death of Coker, for his deeds aro
many and of the most desperate char
acter. If the Delaware Council don't
present Love with a handsome medal
for his bravery, they will neglect an
important duty.

"No, sir," said a weary looking man

Detroit policemen don't seem to be

Smith pretended not to know him,

At Hawkinsville, Ga., recently, ono
