A Novel to be Read In Five Minutes.
VOL. L
Moonlight evening-shady grove
Two young people much m love,
Heroine with great wealth endowed,
Hero handsome, poor and proud ;
Truth eternal-hearts united
Vows of changeless passion plighted ;
Kisses-quarrels-sighs-caresses,
Maiden yi ids one ol her tresses. -
But the twain have never counted
Obstacles to be surmounted,
Ugly rival, old and stale,
Overhears the tender tale.
VOL n.
Morning in the east looks roddy ;
Scene-voung lady's father's stud ,
Hero, with his hat in hand.
Comes her ditto to demand ;
Angry parent storms, abuses,
And at once her hand refuses.
Maiden faints beneath the blow
Mother intercedes- no go ;
shrlefcs-hysterics-protestations.
Mixed with old man's execrations.
Exit lover midst the din
Ugly rival enters m.
VOL. m.
Time-a moonlight night once more,
Scene-outside the lady's door,
Lover, with hair-broken heart,
Swears he'd rather die than part.
Garden-flower, umbrageous shade
Many accents-serenade
Chamber window opens wide
Debut or expectant bride ;
Little dog most kindly mote
Tears-rope ladder-flight-pursuit
Gallant steeds-too late-night's screen
Triumph-marriage-Gretna Green,
Old man's rage-dlsown's forever
Ugly rival-scarlet fever.
VOL. rv.
Old man Blckly-sends for child ;
Ail forgiveness-reconciled ;
Young man making money last
Old man's blessing-dies at last.
Youthful couple prove probate
Get the money-live in state
Mother's wishes crowned with joy
Doctors-nurses-little boy.
Time proceeds-her ties endear
Olive branches year by year.
Blessings on the good attend
General gladness-moral end.
THE LOS DON POLICE.
Their Discipline and their Duties.
An interesting article on the London police
In the Quarterly Magazine says:
The whole force ls directed hy one chief
Commissioner and two assistant commission?
ers, under the control of the home secretary,
who is responsible to Parliament. The com?
missioner and his assistants are charged with
the execution of the acts of Parliament under
which the force ls constituted, including its or?
ganization, the framing of the orders and re?
gulations fpr the government ol its members
their selection and rejection, their distribu?
tion and inspection, their discipline and drill,
and, in short, all the arrangements in detail
which nre necessary to render the force as
efficient as possible in the discharge of its vari?
ous duties.
Every possible care is taken to 6elect the
best men to fill the ranks o? the police. If im
erfect men obtain admission, it is probably
ecause penect men are not to be liad, at the
wages. Nineteen shillings a week, with a
chance of rtelng by good conduct to 21s., 23s.
and 25s. weekly, ls not a very tempting salary;
jet there is no want of candidates to flu'va-1
candes in the force. lu 1869 the number of
j^Dlicants for admission to the metropolitan
police Was *&50, of whom 247Q w?re not exam?
ined aa coming within the'stipulated condi
'Jons of age, sf ature, health, education, Ac;
1750 were rejected as unqualified on account
.ff th? insufficiency of testimonials; 720 did not
proceed with their applications, and 2080 were
selected for examination, of whom 940 were
rejected, and 1140 passed; or only about 25
Ser cent, of the original number of applicants,
f the men who passed their final examina?
tions, 930 were eventually sworn In as police
constables.
Before the candidate is admitted to exami?
nation the foUowing preliminary conditions
are requisite : He must be under thirty years
of age, and, if married, not have more than
two children dependent upon him for support;
he must stand at least five feet seven inches
Ju height, be free from bodily complaint, and
of strong constitution; he must be Intelligent,
able to read and write, and, above ali, he must
be able to give proofs of an unimpeachable
Character for honesty, industry, sobriety and
food temper. And li, after being examined,
e shows the requisite amouui of intelligent
compiehension of the rules and regulations of
the service, and gives evidence of his ability
to act with discretion and judgment in a va?
riety o? problematical cases that are laid be?
fore bim, this first-class man-for such he must
<really be to fulfil these various, conditions-is
tak?? Q? ft( ?9s, a w?efc. havifig first undergone
instruction in the rudiments of company drill <
for a fortnight. There is one advantage he has. {
on entering the service: he knows that promo- ,
lion 58 entirely by merit, and that he is com?
manded by gentlemen who will be quick to (
recognize bis good qualities; so that he may '
.hopebjractivity, sobriety^and intelligence- [? j
t?lt j<?r?orm?n?;C Cl -!? ??ues, io rise to supe?
rior stations in tLe force. - i
Although, as might naturally be expected, ,
by far the largest proportion of the metr?poli- 1
tan police consists ot Englishmen, mostly be
{onglng to the home counties, lt contains 670
risnmen, ol whom 3 are superintendents, 22
inspectors, and 98 sergeants; and 152 Scotch?
men, ot whom 3 are superintendents, 13 in?
spectors, and 31 sergeants. The proportion ol"
the men who haveiserved in the army ls about
9 per cent; 73 men having served in the artil?
lery, 152 in the cavalry, 426 in the line, and 123
in the militia. Of the linesmen, 3 are super?
intendents, 5 inspectors and 46 sergeants.
There are also in the force ll foreigners, some
of whom are connected with the detective 1
force.
The total length of the streets and roads
regularly patrolled by the metropolitan police
ls not less than 6708 miles, or equal to the
distance, In a direct line from London across
the Atlantic and the Continent of North
America, to San Francisco. This length is
divided Into 921 day beats-the average length
of the day beats all over the metropolitan dis?
trict being about seven and a half miles, and
of the night beats a little over two miles
though they are, of course, much shorter
where the population is the most dense.
The beats are all numbered and entered in a
register, which can be referred to at any time.
This register shows the streets, roads, squares,
Ac, lu each boar, and the time required to
pass over it at the rate of two and a half miles
an hour. A sergeant has the charge of each
section, and of the men doing duty in it; he is
responsible for the proper conduct ot the men,
and. to satisfy himself that they are doing
their duty properly, he is constantly patrolling
the section. As a check upon the sergeant and
the ' men working under aim, the inspector
visits the sub-division at different points dur?
ing/day and night, the superintendent keeping
a vigilant ?ye upon the working of the entire
division; while, as a check upon the whole, the
commissioners and district superintendents
either make Inspection of the division in per?
son, or send out special officers from White?
hall to report as to the manner in which the
whole duty is done.
It will oe observed, from the much larger
number ot night beats than of : nose in the day,
that the patrol work of the police Is principally
done at night-night belog the time of danger,
and consequently of watching. In round num?
bers two-thirds of the whole force are employ?
ed by night and one-third by day, the men
taking their turns on both kinds of duty. The
night constables go on duty at 10 P. M., and
remain until 0 A. M.. when the day duty be?
gins. The whole service ia arranged by reliefs,
each man taking his turn of eight months'
night duty and tour months' day duty in the
year. It ls also arranged that the force patrol?
ling the principal thoroughfares shall be great?
er at certain hours than at others, the largest
number being on duty between 7 and 10 in the
evening; long experience having shown that
it is between these hours that the greatest
number of thefts and depredations are attempt?
ed, as well as because tho streets are then the
most disorderly by reason of the number of
drunken people abroad.
And now observe what are the routine du?
ties expected to be performed by the police
constable on parade. These are carefully laid
down for him in his book of "General Regula?
tions, Instructions and Orders" the details of
which he is required to master, to remember
and to carry out. He is informed at the out?
set that the principal object of the institution
of the force ls the prevention of crime.
To this end (says the order book) every ef?
fort ot the police ls to be directed. The secu?
rity of person and property, the preservation
of the public tranquillity, and ali the other ob?
jects of a police establishment will thus be
better effected than by the-detection and pun?
ishment of the offender after he has succeeded
ja committing the crime. This should be con?
stantly kept in mind by every member of the
?oillce force as the guide* for hlB own conduct,
he police should endeavor to distinguish
themselves by such vigilance and activity as
may render it extremely difficult for any one
to commit a crime within, that portion of ihe
t>wn under their coarse.
In earning out these general instructions,
the men era oatrol are directed to make them?
selves thoroughly acquainted with the geogra
ohv of their respective sections, and with the
names of the several streets, thoroughfares,
court? and houses. The police constable is
even "expected to possess such 'a knowledge
of the inhabitants of each house as to enable
him to recognize their persons, and thus pre?
vent mistakes and be enabled to render assist?
ance to the inhabitants when called upon to do
so."' He bas to see to the proper fastenings of
the doors and windows of the houses along his
beat, with a view to the better security ot the
inmates. He is to observe whether coal holes,
trap doors, or other places on or near the
lootway are securely covered over, and report
when they are not so. In order that this cause of
danger to the public may be removed. He is
to observe the conduct of any suspicious
person banging about a house, aid to tate
notice of any one carrying a*ay parcels or
bundles from it at unseasonable horns under
suspicious circn m stances. He ie to pay nar
ticular attention to public houses aud beer
shops, which, however, he is not to enter
except in tho immediate execution of his duty.
He is to re,x>rt all nuisances in the streets,
courts or thoroughfares, that uteps may be
taken for their removal. He is also, among
his otber various duties by day and ni*ht, to
look after beggars, trampe and street nuisan?
ces; to watch letter pillars and street lamps
(reporting whether they are properiy lightzd
or not;) to check the nuisance of smoky
chimneys and street noises.
