MISCELLANEOUS,
A Ghost STORY.

One day lately an old lady, at

time. He, of course, was extremely
glad to sec her, and insisted on hor
stopping all night. The house con.

there was communication by = door.
The old lady having made up the fire,
and performed her devotions, laid
down to rest. Just ns she was about
to fall asleep, the fire then burning
very dull, she was startled by terri.
bic apparition, which e'alked across
the floor, worry slowly, towards the
fire. Not being able to see distinctly,
her agitation may be better imagined
than described. TetSor completely
paralyzcd her, and, as she described
afterwards, she had not power to
speak. The ghost, however, feeling
the fire very comfortable, lay down
before it: but in doing 80, hi. hnnd

old lady to find her tongue, when she
cried out, 80 Lord have mcrcy up.
OH me, have mercy upon mel" which
she continued to repeat so loud, that
her nephew heard her up stairs.
when he came down and discovered
that the terrible ghost was none o:hcr
than the poor old Dobbin, who bciu.
cold in his stable, had forced open
the door, and laid himself down near
the fire in the old lady's bedroom.

'On reviewing the criminal history
Of this city for ycsr or two past,
we are as;onished at the increase Of
crime and murder that has taken
place within that period. Notwith,
standing that five or six executions
have taken place within compare

abroad. The knife Of the assassin is
unshcath d, and plunged into the
vitals of his fellow man, to crafty
premcditated revenge, to wipe out an
imaginary offence, or for tho purpose
of gain. Four men arc nov under
sentence of death in this city, and
several here and in our nci yhbo,hood
are awaiting trial for that awful
cline. Rowdyism- the precursor
of crime and murlcr-is still rampant
