Sir Silas hero paused to give full
elneet to his words. .
Then amidst breathleas elleetee he
continued:
"After these fe.eta hove been fully

• "It is not difficult to trace the far-
ther proceedings of thia precious
pair. Fortune,- or rather misfortune,
them. A very lax coutroi seems to
have been exercised over the new
cashier; one partner, now deceased,
was o dilettante and a virtuoso, who
had practically withdrawn from al -
fairs..., The -other, through sickness,
was unable to keep this Monett in
his place; arid it is impossible to
withhold some syrapathy from Mr.
Waldo, whose neglect and over -con-
fidence dated only from his own ina-
bility to attend closely to business.
Thus Meogitt soon got his hegd. One
of his first act e was to introduce to
the bank, as a most eligible and val-
uable client, this friend and coialeder-
ate; the Man who, clothed in the
garb of shame, stands there by kb
side, the man who, assuming a ficti-
tious title and all the airs of a'

and his junior began. to call the wit-

was upon her throughbut. ShO

Oho judge's stemiaing-up was ,clear

guilty came as a Matter of course..
In passing sentence he drew a dis-•
Unction between the crinies of the
two prisoners.
"You," he said, addressing' • Meg -
