fHE STORY OF A DETECTIVE OFFICER.
CHAPTER LV.—ContinveEn.
‘Send one of your own men will you ?’ auswered the boatman. ‘ I’ve got some.| thing to tell the governor’ (that was me,) ‘ne | think he ought to know.”
~ Cut away then, Bill,’ says the ser- gesnt to the constables; “these fellows are ironed, aud we cau manage all that are aboard this crait.’’
So the man went off ia my wherry ; and the Thames men tried to make poor Burney a little more confortable, while I uudid his waistcoat, hoping to stop the : bleeding.
“Tt ain’t no use,’ he said; but in that short time his voice was almost gone, aod
we could tell that he was dying. “ L’m A done for, Mr. Nickham. If there’s a
iH reward, you'll act fair aud square, | know;
‘ you always was a geotlemaa—let my Sister

j gasp and was dead.
| rose up, dreadfully vexed for the
poor chap. ‘The sergeant and one of his}
men were looking after the skipper, when | felt myself touched on the arm.
“T say, sir,’’ said the boatman, “ when a l’m ia for a thing, I go through with it i honorable. Did you know as you was
. followed ?”
| “ Followed ? no!’’ I said.
} ‘J thought we was!” said Peter Tilley. { “We was followed, sir, by a light : wherry with two people in it,’’ continues the boatman; “and when they saw our
: boats, they beld hard; and as you al] boarded the ship and the noise began, they rowed away as hard as they could go.” ; ‘Which way did they go?’ I said.
\ «Down river,’’ says the man. * But
it’s of no use thinking after them now. They are ashore long afore this.”
| This was likely enough; and it was quite certain that Edmund Byrle was one of the two in the boat, and I had lost him for the present. Well, it couldn't be helped ; so we set to work to question the men and search the ship, till the doctor came. The men knew nothing more about the business than that they were going to have two pussengers, a lady and a gentleman, this voyage. One ot the Thames men understood Dutch, or we should not have heard even this scrap ot information. The sulky boatman never uttered a word, except that once he said { as I passed him, and he said it with a q bitter curse: ‘ [ always had my doubts of you.”’
‘The doctor came off; bat poor Barney was stone-~dead, while the skipper’s skuil was badly fractured. However, the paper was all there; so L supposed, and so it proved ; and I shouldu’t have cared if the ! skipper’s head had been broken fifty ; times over. | We got our prisoners to the shore, leaving the craft in charge of a Thames police galley that came in answer to our signals ; and late as it was, 1 drove with Peter Tilley in a cab to the City,
Our people there were immensely glad, I can tell you; and when I wert over to the Bank (for there was no need for se- crecy or dodging now, )I thought the gen- tlemen never would have left off paying me compliments. Poor Barney Wilkins that was dead deserved most credit, but it could not do him any good to say so ‘ now, so I Jet them go on,
: The paper was examined, and found to be exactly the quantity required, enough, Bi I believe, to have made about twenty thousand bank-notes. Alb, if they had ' got into circulation ! . P| I hope you will uaderstand, however, B that 1 did act fair and square, and when the reward was paid (and the Bank peo-

The Greatest Medical Discovery since | the Creation of Man, or since the Commencement of the Christian Era.
There never has been a time when the heal- ing of so many different diseases has been caused by outward application as the present. It is an undisputed fact that over half of the entire population of the globe resort to the use of ordinary plasters.
DR. MELVIN’S CAPsicumM Porous PLASTERS are acknowledged by all who have used them, to act quicker than any other plastertheyever | before tried, and that one of these plasters will |
do more real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind. All other plasiers are slow of action, and require to be worn continually to | effect a cure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the instant one is applied the patient will feel its effect.
Physicians in all ages have thoroughly tested and well know the effect of Capsicum; and it has always been more or less used as a medical agent for an outward application; but it is only of very recent date that its advan- tages in a porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, convineed of the wonderful eures effected by Dr. MELVIN’s CAPSICUM Porous PLAsSTEeRS, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually preseribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, pain in the side and back, and all such cases as have required the use of plasters orliniment. After you have tried other plas-
‘ ters and liniments, and they have failed, and you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for Dr. MELVrN’s CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTER. You can hardly believe your own convictions of its wonderful effects. Although powerful and quick in its action, you can rely on its safety for the most delicate person to wear, as it is free from lead and other poisonous material commonly used in the manufacture ef*ordin- ary plastérs. One trial is a sufficient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will seli hundreds to yoar friends.
Ask your druggist for Dr. MELvrin’s CAPST- CUM PoroUsS PLASTER, and take no other; or, on receipt of 25 cents for one, $1 for five, or | $2 for a dozen, they will be mailed, post paid, to any address in the Uuited States or Canadas.
