The following explanation of the method of maanfacturing ghosts is taken from the North British Daily Mail : When any one looks into a glass or metallic mirror be sees an image or ghost of himself. If his neigubour looks over his shoulder he, too, sees the same ghost. What gives this business of ghost-making its chief mystery is the plan of concealing adroitly the person or object who or which is to be ghostitierl, and showing only the image or ghost, and thus mapping the otherwise palpable connexion between the true object, animate or inanimate, and its picture or repre sentation. If a plane metallic or silvered glass mirror only were employed in producing the ghost a child would not be startled at the effect* produced, however com pletely the original object might be concealed from view ; but it is otherwise, and all are surprised, when an image or ghost is called up before the observer without any apparent connection with mirror action at all. Now, without going job the questions in optical science re specting the reflection of light from plane surfaces, the formation of images by plane mirrors, or of multiple images formed by glass mirrors, we may remark that me tallic mirrors have but one reflecting surface, giving only one image of an object. With glass mirrors this is differ ent. They give rise to several images which are readily ob served when the image of • candle is looked at obliquely in a mamma looking-ems. A very feeble image of the candle is seen, and then a very dis- Meet one. Behind this there are several others, whose intensity or dearness gradually decreases until it disappears. This phenomena. or appearance arises from the looking-glass having two reflecting surfaces—that of the face of the plate, and that of the laver of metal which covers the hinder surface of the glue. The greater feebleness of the image reflected from the glass than from the metal surface arises from the circumstance that the metal reflects better than the glass. It completely intercepts the light reflected from the original object, and throws it back to the eye, Now, in ghost-making a plate of clear glass is placed between the oteervers mad where the ghost is made to ap pear ; and what is seen as the ghost is nothing more than the feeble image of • true object, produced by reflection from the surface of the plate. But the gbret, when well shown, is an intensely vivid image, the very reverse of feeble ; and the question is, How is the intensification of au originally feeble image effected? It is effected by greatly reducing or extinguishing all other lights, and by concen trating en intense light on the original object., and thus mealy increasing the retlectieg power of the clear glass plate, and by at the same time forming a dark background behind the plate, which further lariats in throwing out the image or ghost to the eye of the spectator. All this is quite a common occurrence in the shop windows along the streets, and perhaps still better shown iu • lighted railway carriage at night. The ghosts of the pan angers in the carriage are shown through the carriage windows upon the apparent ground of the dark sky, and the carriage lamp, front its being the most luminous object, presents the mast vivid ghost of ell. As ordinarily repre sented on the stage, the arrangements for the production of • ghost are esmetially as follows:—The front of the stage is made to rise five feet or so from• the floor. Within this terrier, and deeding down out of sight, and facing the stage, the true 'object is placed. A Urge plate of glass is made to rest on the stage, and to lean slightly forward towards the person or object that is to be glstified. The image of the object is reflected from the glees plate to the audience, and this image is seen by them to be as far behind the plate as the true object is placed in advance of it. Tire electric light, or usually what is called the "lime" or " Drummoud light," sent through the condenser of • lamp or magic lateen, is at the same time projected on the original object. The ghost is seen to be illuminated from below up, and this comes of placing the lamp low, and throwing the light on the true object up wards. A white lustrous dress given to a female personating the ghost exalts the effect. The lave ghosts shown have the habit of laming forward so as to catch as much of ibis illumi nation as possible. AU the room lights are in the meantime re duced, other wise the audience also, as in the case of the passen gers in the railway carriage, would be converted into ghosts. As much light, sod no more, is loft on the stage as admits of the actors oar it being seen. These performers see no ghost ; all their movements are calculated as to place sod time. The ghost placed on the stage so far as the adapta tions of this illusion have yet gone, is fixed ; a hand or part of the body may be moved, hut not the whole, beyond a very small distance. if any one wishes to assure himself about the use of the glean, a pea or pellet of paper flung against it will assure him. "The ghost" will afford abun dant fun for the Christmas pantomimes, and tradition will be ransacked for all ghost stories to utilise this curious and amusing triple. "Tam o' Shooter," and "Death and Dr. Horn - book,"arecepitsl themes ; aod besides the beets •af tradition and of literature, the ghat suggestion is likely to be abundantly fertile in all aorta of new dramatic iuventiona, wherein sprites may be introduced. Chest-making will become also a fatally amusement, we hays uo doubt, and the simplicity of the apparatus employed for the production of the many Mashies of which this matter is capable, will set the youth of both sexes to work amusement during the approaching winter months. A parlour table, a large sheet of glass, a toy magic lantern, arid • few yards of black linen, will do for apparatus, and all the babies in the household can be made ghosts together or in turn. Of course we are quite aware that it is the common practice of interested parties to surround this novelty in optical illusion with mystery, and to deny that any one knows aught about the matter but the especially initiated. LONDON SOCIETY FOR THE PROTECTION OF YOI'NO FEMALE-M.—The annual meeting of the friends and sot, porters of this institution was held yesterday at the asylum, Tottenham, Dr. Specks in the chair. Mr. T. It. Talbot, the secretary, read the report of the con.mittee, which gave an interesting detail of the operations of the society during the past year. During that period numerous applications had bees made to the committee by the friends and parents of children varying from 11 to 15 yens of age, many of the cases being of a distressing character, and fully proving the necessity pad usefulness of the society. Daring the year 24 young female' have been received into the asylum or have been placed out to service, eight have been restored to their friends, leaving 54 in the asylum on the 30th of June last. The average number to the house last year wee 59. n• financial statement showed the total income for the year b a d been 1,9871.15 a. 4el. and the expenditure 1,941/. >k 3d., leaving a balsam of 6/. Se. 2d. The funded property now amounts to 1,9501. The lease of the premises now occupied by the society expiring at Christmas, 1863, the committee were under the necessity of looking out for another and they bare effected the purchase of • mansion at VZ B. O. stead for the sum of 2,5001., to which the asylum will be removed in September next, and to meet this outlay the support of the him& of the society la earnestly solicited. The Mod was adopted.

The Emperor leaves here to-morrow for Frank fort, and will visit on his way the courts of Munich and Stuttgart. His Majesty will stay at Frankfort at least a week. The only refusal as yet received to the Emperor's invitation to the German princes has been sent by the King of Holland, who would represent the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and the Duchy of Limburg. The Kings of Prussia and Denmark have not yet come to a decision on the subject. The Archduke Maximilian has arrived here to be present at a family council. THE POLISH INSURRECTION.

Telegraphic communication with Warsaw is again interrupted in all directions. ITALY. (now ova owx CORIZSPONDIVT.) TURIN, At:cow 9. The Italian government redoubles its ac tivity against the brigands who are still in the field. It need not be supposed that it has done nothing this year because it has only just obtained exceptional authority from parliament. From the let of January, 1863, to the Ist of August, 1,180 brigands have been taken. Of these some were killed fighting, others were shot, and others were arrested and handed over to the legal authorities. The rest voluntarily surrendered. The number of the last named will be greatly increased doubtless during the next fortnight. In a few days Colonel Fumel will again set out for Calabria, the people having sent petitions, letters, deputations, and municipal resolutions, urging his return. I mentioned some little time since that the departure of Sir James Hudson would cause much regret. He will leave in a day or two to visit some valleys under Monte Rosa, and be will then make his way into the Tyrol and Venetia. Meanwhile lie is looking out for a villa on the lovely Lake of Como. Sir James Hudson has many friends throughout all Italy, but principally in the north. If his successor follows in his foot steps he will be very useful to England. Mr. Elliot must have seen, during his residence iu Naples, how impossible it would be to restore not merely the Italy of 1815 but that of the com mencement of 1859. Sir James Hudson has done his utmost to main tain Euglish influence in Idly, but it must be admitted that he has frequently had to struggle with the prejudices of Lis own government even more than with the cleverness of French diploma tists. If he had been listened to by the English ministry Italy would perhaps have been more solidly constituted, and France would not have possessed Nice. Sir James Hudson, in 1859, was compelled against his convictions to oppose the war with Austria ; yet war took place. If England, niaki og a virtue of necessity, bad merely lent the aid of her fleet in that war, France would nut have reaped all the merit and the advantage of the enterprise, and British diplomacy would have been spared a defeat. Even diplomacy ought to go with the times and accept the consequences, unless it wishes to be in opposition to events. Louis Napoleon and Count Cavour understood this, and turned the errors and uncertainty of others to account. THE OUTWARD MEDITERRANEAN AND BOMBAY Man.—The Peninsular and Oriental Compeny's steam ship Ellora, Captain Kellock. sailed from Southampton at 3 p.m., yesterday with the mails for Gibraltar, the Mediterranean, Egypt, Aden, Bombay. and l'pper Bengal, together with 43 passengers.

The inquest on the holy of the man Thomas Jefferson, a caster, who resided lo Tref&lganplaos, Bissell street, Birmingham, and who met his death at the bands of a neighbour named George Higoett, a tobacco maker, wee held at the Calthorpe Arms, Bath sow, on Tuesday. Mr. Edward Powell attended to watch the ease on behalf of Illgoett. The hest witness called was Mrs. Jefferson, the wife of the deceased, who after speaking to the identity of the body of the deemed, said — My husband came home from work at about seven o'clock on Saturday evening. Having stayed in-doors about an hour, he went into the Pilgrim's Progress public-house. in Bissell-street, to get some ale. He afterwards returned to the house, and I, at his request, fetched a pint of sle which was thank between myself, deceased, and one of hi; shopmates. I then went out to market, and my husband returned to the public-house. I came back at about eleven o'clock, and found him iu the house playingwith thectuldree. Shortly after I entered the house deceased left home again for the purpose of going to the Pilgrim's Progress. He was then quite sober. As he did not return, I went infer him shortly after eleven o'clock. He was these drinking. He left the public-house before me, and I met him in the street at about a quarter to twelve o'clock. Although not exactly sober then, he was not intoxicated. We went indoors to gether,3oot and prepared for bed. I had only unlaced one of my when we beard the screams of children in the yanl. My husband said That man is on *gain. He's always ill. Go opt to him." He knew that it wsa Higuett, the father of the children, by his voice. Hignett lives next door to as, and he frequently disputes and quarrels with hie wife. The door having been unfastened, my husband went out. I stood at the threshold of my own house. About three minutes after my husband went out I beard two blows, the sound of which appeared to proceed from Hignett's garden. It was so dark I could not sae what was taking place. The Coroner—Before the blows did you hear any words spoken between the patties? The Witness—Hignett said, "I'll make it warm foryon." The Coroner—Was there any condition stated, do you re member? The Witness—No. The Coroner—Are you mire of that? The Witness—Yu. I don't remember. The Coroner—l do not like hushing ; but did he not say, "If you come in hen, ll make it warm for von ?" The Withal—Yee, that must be it. He did, I think. The Coroner—But why must it be it ? . . The Witneris—l don't know, 1 don't remember whether there U.S any condition or not. I won't undertake to say. The next thing I heard was some one to say, "Oh, yon coward. Why, it'. poor Jefferson." I then rushed out, and found my husband lying down at the gate of H4oett's house. He was bleeding from the back of his he'd. He also complained of • pain in the shoulder. He said be had been hurt, and I understood him to say by Hignett. I then west for • policeman, while a neighbour bathed the wound. The police officer came, and took Hignett to the Alcester.etreet police station. The deceased also went to the police station to prefer a charge against the prisoner. It was then about three o'clock. The neighbours shortly after wards said that the deceased was sinking fast, and he was thereupon placed in • cab, and taken to the Queen's Hospital. Although my husband end the deceased have at different times bad one or two little differences, Ido not think there was any malice on the part of Higuett towards the deceased. Jo orces•examinatinn by Mr. Powell the witness added—l know Mignon said " I'll make it warm for you," because I am socustomed to his voice. I did not bear klignett tuie any other words except those I have mentioned. I was very much agitated at the tune. . . . . Jobiiifates, Trafalgar-place, Bissell-street, branfonnder, stated—At about twelve o'clock on Saturday night I was going up our yard when I heard Hignett sod hie wife differing. Shortly afterwards I saw Higoett come out into the garden, and there struck his wife. There ware about a dozen persons standing round, sod some of them said that he ought to be ashamed of himself. Jefferson, who bad heard the disturbance, then came out of hie house and challenged Hignett to fight, saying, "If you want to fight, I'll fight you." He then went to Hignett's gate, and tried to get in to hit him. He put up has fiats before he got to the gate. Hignett then said to deceased, "If you come in here I'll wake it warm foe you." I then took Hignett's wife, who was standing by the brewhonae door, into the house. About two minutes afterwards I saw His nett standing at the door with something in his hand. I "What's that"' If it's the poker, don't use it. If he armee in use your fista." I did not name any person. I then left the house, and came out at Hignett's garden gate. Jefferson, who was standing just outside the then rushed by me into the garden, saying, " I will go in whether or no." Hignett then stepped about two yards from the door at which he was standing, and struck Jefferson upon the shoulder with the poker ; be followed up that blow with another upon the back of de ceased's head, which felled ..iefferson to the ground. The deceased tried to get up, but failed. I then got pushed into Hignett's house, and the door was locked after me. I don't know who pushed me in. Hignett was there with me. When I C141:00 not deceased was gone away. Half so hour afterwards Jefferson came out again, and said to Hignett, "Come out you —, and fight ; I'll fight you now." No person struck Jefferson but Hignett. By • Juror—l considered Higoett sober. Ten minutes elapsed from the time the deceased put his fiat np to Rig nett till the time he rushed into the garden. By the Coroner—During those minutes deceased was swearing, and challenging llignett to fight. By the Juror— When Jefferson rushed into the garden be ran towards Hignett. I was about two yards distant from the parties when the blows were struck. . . By Mr. 'Powell—Deceased, I have no doubt, was about to strike Higoett when the latter struck hint with the poker. John Guest, Bissell-street, bedstead maker, dated— Shortly after twelve o'clock on Saturday night I beard the screaming of children in the next court to the one in which I live. I got upon some woodwork and looked over a wall dividing Trafalgar. place from my premises. Seeing • crowd I got over the wall. There I saw Higoett beatiog his wife. Jefferson was standing amongst the persona assembled, and I heard bim say "Come out like a MAO, nod I'll fight you." After alluding to some old grievance which had taken place • week previously, Jefferson ran into Hignett's garden. I fetched him out, but he went in again. 1 then carried him out; but being determined to go in, be got over the paling. He then squared his fists at Ilignett, who told him that if be did not go away be would make it warm for him. He did not go away. Higoett then went into the house, and bringing out • poker, struck deceased three times upon the head and shoulders. He fell to the ground the last time that he hit him. I saw no one strike deceased except Hignett. klignett stood at the door with the poker, but I don't think he would have done any harm with it had not the deceased come to him. Higoett was • bigger men than the deceased. Police-constable Myatt ('-'6:1) produced a poker, sod stated— I found this poker in Hignett's house. I was told that it was the one used to strike the deceased. (The wit ness Guest was here recalled, and stated that the poker pro. duced woo like the one with which be saw Hignett Anne the demised.] I asked prisoner's wife for the poker the assault was committed with, and she pointed to the one produced, which was standing against the fire grate. I then went up stairs end found prisoner to bed, appareutly ssleep. Mr. Welders, the house-surgeon at the Queeus Hos pital, stated—The deceased was admitted into the institu tion at about four o'clock on the morning of the Pith August. There was • couttued wound about an inch long, midway between the occiput and left ear. It went down to the bone. pou • probe being introduced into the wound an extensive fracture was discovered. The deceased we. iu a semi-conscious condition. He vomited a great deal. The wound was dressed with lint and bandaged. About half-past eleven o'clock the IMMO morning, the deceased being perfectly uuconacious, his bead was shaven. He, however. gradually sank, and died at two o'clock the same day. I have since made • post nuirtem examination of the body, and found a fracture of the skull. The left hemisphere of the brain was in dented ►ud compressed. I saw no marks of blows upon any other part of the body. I am of opinion that the deceased bee died from compression of the 'onto, which was caused by the fracture of the skull. A blow with • poker would Cause KWh no injury as described. By Mr. Powell—A very severe fall upon tome hard sub stance might have caused such an injury. Hignett, the accused. who was present at the inquiry, in the custody of luspector Percy, was recalled, and sf tot having been cautioned in the usual way I.y the coroner. stated that he did not wish to say anything in his defence at present. The Coroner then summed up the evidence, and the jury, after a short deliberation, returned • verdict of manslaughter against Hignett. The prisoner win then formally committed for trial under the coroner's warrant.

The condemned murderer, Joseph Kelly, was hanged on Tuesday morning in frost of the county gaol at Wicklow. A small crowd of penioes, some of whom had come from the surrounding districts, witnessed the dreadful seem. Kelly was convicted at the recent assizes for the county of Wexford of the murder of Michael Fitzbenry, a national schoolmaster, residing near Ballywilliam. The motive which the crown sought to establish for the perpe tration of the crime was revenge, entertained by Kelly against the murdered man, lathing from dissatisfaction at the refusal of the latter to exteud the terms of the purchase of the farm belonging to Kelly's father, so as to enable him to go to America with his Goo, the wretched man who was executed on Tuesday morning. It appeared on the trial that the farm in question was held by old Kelly from Lord Cethrew, and that he allowed the rent to fall considerably into sneer. An arrangement wee made, with the sanction of Lord Cathrew's agent, by whieb the farm was to be aseignal by the Kellys to Fitz henry, the latter undertaking to pay all the screen of rent and bear the cod of seeding the convict and his wife to America, besides maintainiog at home old Kelly, or paying him 61. per annum. After the arrangement was come to Mary Fitzhenry, the wife of the deceased, sent over her children and servant to the farm, which is situated at • place called Poolpasty. The prisoner soon after this im portuned Fitzbenry to give Lim money enough to take out his father with him to America, stating that he IVY anxious not to leave the old mar, who was more than seventy years of age, behind him in Ireland. The deceased refused to advance the money. contending that under the agreement, unless Kelly's father was dissatisfied with the treatment he received at harm, he was not to be seat to America. It was in proof that the prisoner was excited and angry at the non-com *rues of Flashes/sty with his moss; bat there was so Yam precise evidecioe that the primmer uttered any threata against the deceased. Late on the night of the Pith May Firshenr, was barbarously murdered beyond• placeknownseßitheen • Croes. The body was found the following morning is a ditch by the rawhide. and presented a horrible spectacle. The skull was fractured from the effecter of a tremendous blow on the temple, inflicted apparently by an iron bar or other heavy weapon ; the back of the head was beaten in, and there was likewise a wound over the thigh which seemed to have been occasioned by forcing some blunt instrument into the body, probably after death. In the forenoon of that 16th May, which was Saturday, the prisoner and the deceased were at the office of • shipping agent in New Roes ; later in the day they were both in the shop of Mr. Cullen, where the prisoner purchased two bars of iron, which he took away with him. At this time th e deceased was observed to be partially drank ; the prisoner was sober. Still later in the day the two men were seen io various public houses in Ross, but it was distioctly proved that while the deceased became more and more intoxicated towards nightfall, the prisoner, who was bringing him from place to place, re tracted perfectly sober. Toe last was seen of them about 12 o'clock that orght, when the prisoner was leading de ceased along the road ; the latter was, in the language of one of the witnesses, "staggering drunk" at the time, end fad ing occasionally to the ground. Next morning the dead and disfigured body of deceased was discovered in the ditch. The medical teatimoty went to show that the injuries inflicted on the deceased were such as would have been indicted with an iron bar which the police found concealed in a field of the prisoner. This iron bar was stated by wit muses to be to shape and size like one of the two bars which the prisoner had bought, but they did not positively iden tify it. A handkerchief belonging to deceased was got in the prisoner's bodes, but no clothes or other articles stained with blood. Immediately after the body of the deceased was found, suscipion fell on the prisoner, and he was arrested the same day in his own residence. His counsel contended that the case was shrouded in mystery, sod the circumstances consistent with the innocence of the prisoner. The deceased and the prisoner had always been frisods, the arrangement for the transfer of the farm was amic able, there were no threats used by the prisoner, and no motive existed for the crime. Plunder, and not revenge, was the cause of the murder, for the watch of the deceased was taken end never found. It was also urged that the deceased and his wife had been appro lieneive of the vengence of others, and that it was those, aod not the prisoner, who committed the foul deed. No evidence was adduced fur the prisoner, and the counsel for the crown in reply contended that it was clear the prisoner dragged the deceased all day with drink to make him set easy victim, amid that no doubt could be entertained that the very weapon with which the deed was done wee that found had in the prisoner's field. The jury appeared to think the ease conclusive against the prisoner, for, after e ' brief deliberation, they found a verdict of guilty ; and Baron ' Hughes, before passing sentence of death, expressed her con currence in the verdict, and declaredthat the jury would have violated their oaths if they had come teeny of her conclusion. • Some deys before hie execution Kelly stated to the prison officers that he was quite resigned to die in stone mast for his sire. He had not said much previously about the greet crime for which he was about to suffer, and the statement that he wee not unwilling to die was looked upon by the officers as an indirect admissioo of ' guilt. Ou Monday evening he heeded to the Rev. Mr. Roioe the subjoiowl declarati..n that be slew Michael Fitzbenry. The document was read in the presence of two of the prison officers end the convict, and was signed by each : " As • caution to those who are fond of drinking heavily I think it right to make this declaration known to the public. On the 17th of May last, when 1 left New Ross in the com pany of poor Michael Fitzheory, I lied not, according to the beet of my belief, the intention of killing Lim, but I intended to give • great heating to him, because he had not given a suit of clothes to my deer father actordiog to contract, awl also for several other tridiug causes. After I rive him a few blows I left him I) Mg alive on the road. I went on my way home for about a quarter of a mile, and then be came afraid when he would recover that be would prosecute me, and 1 would be punished severely. In order to prevent such punishment, end having drank heavily—although I was nut drunk—and being tempted by the devil, 1 went to the piece where pour Michael Fitzbenry rue lying and com mitted the dreadful crime for which I am uow about to suffer death. I aro heartily sorry for this horrible crime, and all the scandal I have given. I die iu peace and char ity with all men. I humbly ask the prayers of the faithful for the happy repose of my soul. I beg of the mother of my God, the blessed V:rgie Mary, 111341. St. Joseph to intercede for me now, and at the moment of my death.

DIII,OVERT OF NORSE ItEMAINS IN ORE N ET. —A most iuteresting discovery has been made in Weetray, Mr. Ferrer, M.P.. who is indefatigable in his researches, baying fortunately fallen upon what appears to he the unmistakeable remains of a mailed Nome warrior end hie horse. On Tuesday morning the labourers engaged in removing wind from the lower parte( the Links, east of Pierowall, in Westray. with a view to ascertain whether •ay gravel yet remained =- disturbed, discovered portions of the skeleton of • melt horse, a fragment of the lower jaw of a human being, iu which were three teeth in good preserve . tion, together with piecesof iron very much curreded, two iron buckle►, several largo uatl heads, and the half of what appeared to have been a. hone b u tton. The oak wood to which the iron hod been attached is in most instauree as bard as the iron itself. From the pmaion in which the human jaw was found, it seem. probable that the horse and rider had fallen at the some moment. There was oii ap peareuee of any grave. The skeletons had obyh ugly been left to decay where they fell, sod the discovery of some pieces of iton • few yards further oil magnesia the °relia bility of the bodies hoeing been pulled to pieces by dogs or birds of prey. A piece of bone, possibly the wrist hoax, adhered to the larger of the two buckles, but it crumbled away on being touched.
