A loading artiole in tbe 'Vnlo Literary Magazine has created a stir amou"; the t-ludents. In the nrtiole one of tho editors nttaelis tho Yal.i society sys- tim, and saya that it has developed hypocrisy and wire ))ulling ; that quiet echorlarshi|) al Yule is under a shadow, liLd thut the old "iSrick Itow" de¬ mocracy has becomo greatly impaired.

The New York Tribune says: Soms little time ago a famous llrm of Lon¬ don solicitors found it necessary, in a caso involving large iulereiti., to hav.- some .letective n.irk ul a .lillU'ult and delicate nature done in tbis city, and instead of employiug tbe regular agen¬ cies |iut it in the hands of an American women of g.i» I social standing in pri¬ vate life. Sbe uu.lertook tbe task, and has bnen ao eoiupletely suc'-eaaful in tho perforiuanca of it tifaat the firm employing ber has not ouly thaukeJ her, but sent her a check for a hand¬ some sum. The employment of w.imen of edncation and poaition for delicate work hm become i-uiumou in Euglaud, but thus for few womeu have been so employed in this country. If thoy go into tbc business, however, it ia | r.ttv safe to say that they will succee.l in it.

EHY well, you fellows can believe it or nut na vou like," snid Mackay, -'hut J tell yon that for u day nud 1. night, I h.ivo known what it isto bo dead." "Oh, eomc, Mac, that's too ranch. Tho JIajor has giveu us some prelly tall ouc.fl, bnt we cau't quite swallow that."
"PerhaiiK," siigijestcd tho Major, "Mackay riifera to u stato of alcholio satpratiou.    I hnve heard—"
"Oh. all right," tald Maokny. "Only you sai.l it ivni my turn for u yarn ; but of conrso if—"
"I'lre assay, Mao; never miud the Major ; ho's au uubelieving chap when bis own talcs nre luateil. We'll believe you. Ob.-^crve the cliildliko innocence of our couutenauct."
"Very well Iheu, yon shall havo the yarn.
"It happened out in British Ciiiiuua. Phil Egertou and I bad boon knocking about that ili.'-trict in n yiiclit. Phil was a bit of u seieutist; "had dabbled in tho olo;;iea when be was nt Oxford, niul ho fiiuu'l Eoinothiug to interest him in the shallow waters round th..- ooast. Tho liuckt'l.sof mud au.l slimy thingnbc tishe.l up weren't very ei- citiug for me, so I put in u good dual of timo hansius round tho billiard rooms of (leorgito.vu.
"I tlou't think I I'ould mention tho place that I've spent more thau, a month iu without contriving to make H fool of inyfielf over lioino yirl. She vins n viniiresH this time, and, by .''ove I she was pretty. We cnlle.l her Th'j l^uoeu,' ami I n.'vor knew her by uuy other iiiiiui'. What uationility Hhe beiougoil to I eau't tell you. I think shu hal u .Insh .>f most ot them iu hor, but Kuglish, Spanish nnd In¬ dian were p. rhaps the most prominent —English iu Ihibiui'hs, Spanish iu love, but pure umlihitod Indinn iu bate. It WHS a dnnfjcroiia mi.vture, but you've uo uotiou how faseinatiug. 1 wusu't by any meana the only fellow tiho snccumlieil ti> lior charms, but I believe I wa-i Iho only oun shi> care.l ft tig about.

If 1 stayed another week I should marry her, uud theu thcro'd be tbo deuce to pay.
" 'Look hero, Egerton,' I snid one night; 'you've jjot to take luu uivay from bore. Leavo thoso coufonuiic.l weeds of yours uud lot's weigh anchor and bo off.'

"Woll, Pliil, luy boy, if you wou't lo.ivi>, you'll huvo to be my best man, that's all.'

1 can't say I have, and I dou't think I want to, either. It isn't a very safe plaything.'
" '.Safe eniinijh,'said Phil, Vo long aa TOU havpu't aay cuts or scratches on your hands.'
" 'For heaven'f sake, shut up that scientific shop!' I exclaimed. 'We've Cumo out hero to oiijoy ourselves, not fo talk like a confounded liritish .\s- sociation meeting.'
"'Poor old Mac!' sai.l Phil.''what shall we talk about? Willbilliar.ls do —or waitresses?'
"'Drop it, Phil,' I snid; 'I don't want to bo a bear, bnt your jargon isn't very iutercstiug to u cba|i who hardly knows hu ologv from au ism. Let's have soiuothiug t.^ eat.'
"We found a shady spot under some bushes to have out meal in. Wu wore ju't liuhtiug up uftoriviir.l.'-', au 1 I was liol.liug tho match to my juiio whou somethiug tbtshcl out of the luishos and knocked th.- p.ipe out of my luouth. "'What's that?'said Phil, starting up.

" '.Macktty, you're crying,'ciclaiinod Wileou, 'uud the sweat is simply pour¬ ing down your fuce. i'ou'ro protty bally hurt'.'
"'Crying!' shoute.l Phil. 'Wilson, that dagger is poi.soned !'
"'Poisoned? You duu't mean—' " 'Yes, I do. It's "ivouraliu;" copi¬ ous secretion of sweat nnd tears, heud- iicbe, feeling of extreme lassitiule — thoso ure tho exact symptoms. Oil with that bandage, Mnc'
"'(iiio.l heavens! ho's douo for,' sai.l Wilson.
" 'Done for? Not a bit nf it. Off with that buudugc ; I'm going to suck tho wound !'
"I hud jnat got energy enough left to protest against his doing this, but he insiste.l, and I iriis too feeblo to prevent him.
" 'Xonsense, man,'ho snid ; 'I'm s^fe enough. The stu8 isn't a poison taken internally, even if I do mnuago to swallow some.'
"Ho pnf bis lips to tho wouud, nnd then I closed my eyes aud evorything booamu blank.
'"It must hnve been hour.^ aftarivard thnt I begnn to ro;,'uin, I can't say cuusciousuess, but an indefinito sen- siition of existence and horrible weariness. It seemed to me thut I was swiuimiug ou und on somewhoro in a vague, purposeless way, and I was very, very tired. I callo.l It swiiu- uiiug, but that isn't au exact descrfp- tioii.
