A CONVERTED BURGLAR.

[By ONffi of tos Crowd]

In these piping times of burglary, iv may perhaps be some comfort for the nervous householder r.aident in tUe suburbi to be informed that at all events as far as personal appearance is concerned the burglar is not 80 blaoK as it is the common habit to paint him. In the not impossible event of piter familias being suddenly startled to wake fulness to fiud " a man in the room " it by no means follows that the nocturnal intruder -will prove a burly ruffian of tho Bill Sykes pattern, beetle-browed, and ferocious-look ing almost as an enraged gorilla Illustrated newspapers delight in so portraying him ; but sncri an individual does not fairly re present the fraternity—always assuming that by "burglar" ia meant a person pos sessed of a thorough knowlekge of the business, neat-handed, cool-headed-io short, such, a one as would be spoken of by his friends and intimates as " a good work man " The ponderous ruffian doe 3 not, as a rule, take kindly to cnose branaees of the criminal profession the pursuit of which is attended with attended with a considerable amount of personal risk. Aa one of a gang he la never backward in proving his prowess by assisting iv an attack on a solitary pedestrian in simo lo^e3ome thoroughfare, Indeed, provided he is enabled to come up •with his prey irom behind, and.it is a very dam night, his worst enemy cannot say of him but that, single-handed, he has pluck enough to deal a downright murderous blow preparatory to overhauling the pocket 9 of his insensible victim is he lies pror.o on the pavemane. But the professional bur glar generally speaking, is a man of a different stamp. There U usually nothing ia his pppearaace to indicate him a danger ous character, and he would easly pass for an honest mechanic earning a livelihood in 0 creditable manner. On more than one occasion 1 have seen notorious bn.jjlori who, arrested a few hours before in the midst of their depredations, were being brought be fore the magistrate for a first hearing; and in every instance they appeared far more clean and respectable looking than the mildest " drunk and disorderly " his wor ship had to deal with. Such was Mr Peaoe, of musical memory. Such is the ruffian who recently was taken literally "rod handed" at Stanford-hill, Sucn, too, was the individnal with whom I made acquain taneo a few days since, and who, although —if his word might be taken fer it—at the preßenttime aretormed character, fully and firmly resolved to avoid in futare the ways of crime, has in his timo, and burglariously speaking, bean as great a rascal as ever stood in the docs at the Old Bailey. I have no hesitation in speaking of him thus unrervedly, because in so doing I am treating him more leniently than, when making known to me who and what he was, he treated himself. His most inveterate enemy could not have estimated him more disparagingly. It was hard to believe that his sell-candemnatioß wa3 not somewhat eaasgaiated, his "get up" being so highly Jrespectable. He was attired com pletely In black, except for a narrow white throat-band and a small patch of snowy shirt-front thnt enlivened the bosom part of his buttoned-up su-tout. He wa3 a man of medium height and of middle-age, and except that his face had that indescribable "care hardened" look peculiar to those whom the mention of such place 3as Port land, Chatham, and Dartmoor, serves as something more than geographical remin ders, he mis?ht, judged by his appearance, have been ,a missionary of the locality. I intimated as much to him, and he straieht way proceeded to inform mo, with an affec totion of fa'ictimoniousness that was trans parent as glass, that ha should feal deeply grateful to be permitted to make him?e'f generally useful even in that subordinate capacity, if nothing better offered; but he ■was ambitious to bs engaged in more useful work. "lam desirous, sir," said said he, coming to the point without pre face, "to be taken up by some roligious body, and put forward in my true charac ter of a converted burg'ar. I don't pretend to say that the ideajis original, or that there is any metit iniit. lam aware that there are converted clown',,colliers, cadgers, aad pickpockets in any number at the present time preaching from the public platform and relating their experiences, so that those •who listen, may take warning by the same, 'but what do I say, sir—and could easily prove if they would give me an opportu nity—is that there is not one of 'em that could tell such a thrilling stpry as I could. They make a wonderment of their conver sions, and the crowds that listen turn np 'their eyes in amazement that a man ho , steepad in guiltiness could manage to raise himself and take to the paths of 'truth and virtue, but I should like to get a chance of telling 'em the sort of character 1 have bean. I could startle 'em, I reckon. I don't say it baastingly, there is nothing farther from my thoughts than that, sic; but I will make bold to say it must have been nothing short of a miracle that turned my heart, and snatched as a brand from the burning heat such an out-and-eut scoundrel as I have been. It a'most makes my hair stand upright when I look bacK on tha awful hardened villian I used to be. It fills me with remorse, sir, and over whelms me with shame, when it all comes rushing back to :my memory, and, in a manner of epeaking, it is like bruising the old wounds whenever I speak about" it. But I glory in it all, and sometimes I wisih I had been a great deal worse than I was, so that my conversion might appear more astonishing." And now, as already related, he proceeded to favour me with a brief sketch of his crimeful career, in a tone and with a glibness that left no doubt in my ttihd but that it was his projected platform performance, conned over and embellished nil he had it all by heart and complete. I felt equally sure that though he might be well able to make good his assertion as to having been an out and ont scoundrel, that be"was likewise a most unacrupnlous liar, and that much of the infamy he had con fessed to had no other foundation than his imagination, He commenced by telling me that at the early" age of nine years, being left an orphan, he wan adopted by his grandparetts, and that shortly afterwards, his grandfather dyine, he stole the two half-crowns with which the old gentleman's • eyes were kept closed, and went to the play with the jlnioney. And_ that, faithful to this beginning, he from that time gave his whole attention 'to dishonest practices, and before he had completed his twelfth he had beed sent to prison eleven separate .times - and birched three times, all the convictions being, of course, for short periods, but tbatwaen had just turned Ifourtaen he earned for himsell the distinction [of a twelvemonth's conviction fof causing 'the death of a mast valuable horse by (inserting pounded glass'into its fodder, |the animal being the property of a person who hid taken him out of cha rity and faund him emplaymont as a siable lad, He had evidently studied this episcode of his iniquitous career with .1 view to stage effect, and was able in touch ing terms to describe the look of reproach with which the poor dumb ere iture regar ded bim while it was struggling in its flying agonies. He had the story pat, and readily reeled off the brief particulars of his varions eanvictions until he grew to manhoad, and becoming a villian or .deeper dye, tried hif hand at burglary; for the last mentioned crime he had been three times convicted, for periods varying from three to seven year?. Within the past twelve months he had been committed for trial for the came offence, but bad ex perienced a lucky escape. Owing to some blonder in the indictment the graver charge was abandoned, and he was sen tenced to only six month's imprisonment. He wished me to believe that it was his gratitude to Providence for countenancing this fortunate let off that had led Mai to reflect whether it was not possible for him to turn over a new leaf, and " do some thing to better himself." He was endea vouring to do so now, he seriously infor med me. He din not seek ex'ravagant remuneration, but the labourer was worthy his hire, and he would be satisfied w,ith a modest salary and his board and lodging guaranteed, a s yet, however, although he had tried in every quarter that seemdd at all likely, he could find no cine who would take him by the hand. He appeared to ba quite downhearted and de jected at the discovery, and confidentii!!y Informed me that he made sure that either one of halt a dozen religion!! bodies he could mention would have "jumped at him;" I was by no means sorry to hear that they had not done so, nor surprised either for that matter, for a more bare faced impostor or one through whose sham it was easier to penetrate, I hadnever met with. I had, however, been informed ' beforehand that it was quite true that he had for many years been in the burglary way of business, and it occurred to me that if I could induce him to converse on the subject, he might reyeal certain.things .that at the present time might be tunned to useful account.

Ho was shy at first of talking freely on tho subiec-, but professional pride pre sently prevailed, and he epoko without reserve—ahv.iyp, of cours?, Riving me to understand tuat his whole and solo reason for doing so was that he might convince me how siucera bis conversion was. Having in mind recent events bearing on the subject I ostcd him to what he at tributed the modem praotlce among bur glars of arming themselves with, firearms whenever they sot out intent on business. To which he mada auawer that it was quite a mistake ; that it was because new men who no* adopted tho profession were more ferociously disposed than the men of tho old school, or that the former had less respect than the lotter for human life. As far as he was able to speak, it was the " now hands " who went ia for revolvers, and not the old ones, who worked in " c 0,," and on the sound, old-fashioned principle of "shar ing the dauger and whacking tho swag." My converted burglar informed me that the new hands differed from the old in the important particular thud they worked "single;" that is to say, they planned their worked and executed it without any assistance; not because they declined to assochte with tho old ones—as the candidate tor platform employment hastened to add, with undifguisei contempt for the whole race of paltry pretenders—but because they were umcquaiuto.i with any of the "scbool," being themselves green hands and novices, who were ambitious "to be top-sawyers when as yet they were fit for nothing but to pick up chips." It would be fouud.be said, on reference to the trials of those who had been captured for burglary during the past tea or twelve yeaw, that it, was the " sinole-handed " men'who were most addicted to oarrying firearms. So provided, they had snore courage, and felt more " masterful" than they would if armed with a life-preaerver, or even a blade of any kind, as the latter could be used only at close quarters. It should be said that a " single hand " had more need to take care of himself thnn if he was one of a"co." When ihrre were three in a job there would alsvays be ono outside to look out, not only for any person curaing along, but for lights in the windows showing that somebody hsd been disturbed, in which case it was easy for him to whistle a warn ing to bis pats To clear out. But tho single handed man lacked ihese various advan tages. H was neck or nothing with him wnen he was once boxed in (when he entered a house), and a revolver was his best safe guard. Not that his prime purpose in carrying it was to maim or murder people; only to frighten 'em and to make them keep their distance and get out of the way in case of a rumpus and they stood between him and a means of oscape. The sight of a pistol would generally do it, but if it wasn't enough a couple of bangs aimed at the wall or ceiling was pretty sure to bring 'ora to their senses, and tha man got away. That was all he wanted. Did he think that if it became the practice for householders to take loaded firearms to their bedrooms burglary would be of rarer occurrence ? Not a bit, It warn't one householder in half a dozen who would have pluck enough to shoot a man, and it would be much worse for the householder than at present, because if a burglar had a pistol pointed at him he would be tempted to take quick aim with his own handy weapon and make sura of first pop. Wee burglars sometimes need lessly alarmed 1 Rather, and au unclerical grin stole over the rascal's face as he re called the incident. It had happened so lo himself. It was at a crib at Kilburn, and he had pulled the affair off all right. Had got the "fke stuff" all ready on the table for tying up in his handkerchief, when, as he thousht, he heard the handle of the room door turn, -and bolted out of the window and down the ladder, and made off. And the next day he read in the evening newspaper of an attempted burglary, it being supposed that the burglar was alarmed by a cat whose youtig kittens had been accidentally shut in tho rc^m,

I put it to him as an old practitioner, and as a man who before his conversion must have had frequent opportunities for discuss ing such matters with his companions, what was the punishment most dreaded by them, and he unhesitatingly replied " Flog ging." "You would recommend it as a means for putting a stop to the many des perate burglaries that have taken place lately ?" " i didn't say I'd recommend it," he replied, with an earnest shake of his head and a twitching of the muscles about his mouth, as though the subject involved certain experiences he could not recall with out wincing. "If anything would put a stop to it it is flogging, but no man with feelings for his fellow-creatures, no matter how bad they might be, could recommend flogging. Leastways, not if he knew any thing about it himself." I hardly Jiked to put lo him the delicate question, had he ever had his back scored with the knotted thongs ?—nor was it needful ihat I should do so. He screwed his moath again, and shrugged his shoulders shiveringly, and presently continued, "No one, except he has been through it, can have any idea what the sufferings are. I have been through it, and I've got the score to prove, and I 'tell you this, sir, if I was so unfortunate as to slide back again to my wicked old waye, and the judge was to put it to me— 'Will you have three years penal and twenty-five lashes, or five years without 'em V I'd take the fwe year* and think it a light lat off." It was evident to me from his manner ot speaking that he quite meant what he saidj and that the opinion he had expressed was not hastily arrived at, It was not the Jes3 incredible, how ever. " How long at a time does it take to give a roan twenty-five lashes ?" I asked Mm, "Well, they don't hurry over it," he replied, with another wince ap the rueful reminiscence. "They lay it on pretty well as regular as clockwork, and you can tell to a tick when, the next stinger is coining, I should think twenty-five might take as many 'art minits." "And rather than hear twelve minutes •and a half of sharp pain you would serve two yea rs' imprisonment ?" " You don't know what you're talking about," he replied, and with an offended impatience that 'contrasted strongly with his hitherto meek and mild demeanour; "you speak as if a fellow as soon as he's got his sentence waa taken out of the dock straight and got his dose of the cat, and there waa an end of it." "It can't much matter as to that," said I. "He has twenty-five lashes to receive, and they will cause him no more pain to-morrow or next week than if be was punished immediately," "Hah? that's where you'ie ■wroug," returned the converted burglar, with an energetic shake of his head; "that's where everybody is wrong wbo argues a thing without knowing, ft is bad enough when it comes; there's no mi-take about that. But waiting for it is rbe worst part. Vo day or hour is mentioned for it as the time at which a man receives his sentence when he is to have ' claws for breakfast' as it is called. It may bs to-morrow, or it may bo a fort night or three weeks hence. It didn't so much matter when eld Calcraft had the handling of the cut, he hadn't got strength enough to lay it on so as to hurt very much j but it's another matter when'one of those blessed six-foot Mill bink warders sits about you. They cut bits out, that's what they do, as Wfll I know and could prove to this very day if it was nece;sary, It must be'a horrible sort of punishment, or they wouldn't think it necessary tophysica man aud get his body in order before they give it to him. You know vrhat, certain as death, is coming one day or other, and you go to bed every night and. lay in a sweat for f°-ar when the warder conies round at six next morning he'll say, "You needn't put your shirt on this morning." And if over night the doctor should order you a couple ot pills or a draught, you can't get [a wink of sleep for thinking about it, and very likely nothing comes of it that time, and you're kept three or four weeks at the same Jiind of torture. ; And at last you get it ?" He closed the subject abruptly with these last words, but the shiver aad the sudden close setting of his teeth that {accompanied tho utterance of them told plainer than speech of the tena city with which "claws for breakfast" sticks in a man's memory, and suggested the expediency of treating our modern blood!hir.4y burglars with the same matu tinal meal.
