"A STRANGE GHOST STORY,

We find in the Commercial Journal of
Pittsburg the following interesting ghost
story told by Il correspondent in London:
''Among the oldest things of this kind
that have ever come under my own obser-
vatiop, is tissue of prosecutions inflicted
upon some persons of my acquaintance,
during their late residence in one of the
beautiful suburbs of this town The father
of the family is professional man, and
well known in the literary and scientific
world; a large, noblelooking. thoroughly
Saxon frame, in which the ample Develop
ment of flesh and blood would seem to be
sufficient guarantee against any undue
activity of the Imagination. The wife, on
the contrary, is of highly sensitive, nerv-
Gus temperament, though possessed OF clear,
sound mind, and great calmness Of Judgment
About two years ago, the grandmother Of
my friend (wbcm, for convenience, l will
call Smith, was taken i'll of malady that
terminated, after few months, in her death
The old lady was of very affectionate,
hospitable nature, excessively fond of Mr.
Smith and his family, and had a way of
getting wine and cake for any one of them,
whenever they came to see her.
During the whole period of illness, Mr..
Smiths household was kept in constant tor
ment through the unaccountable noises and
other manifestations that went on. Raps
were heard in all the rooms, doors would
open without any visible agency, and this
during the day; while, at night, steps
would be heard going up and down stairs,
though no one could be seen. On one coca
sion, one of the children saw hand COM
ing out of the wall of the room, and beckon-
ing her; and again at night, felt hand
stroke her face as she lay in bed all Of
which frightened the poor little soul to such
degree that she had severe illness in
consequence. But though these things were
going on through the house, frightening the
children aud servants out of their wits, and
puzziDg and distressing the parents, it
was in their bed room that the slrangest
noises were heard. Night alter night my
friends were awakened by the peculiar foot
all of the old grandmother, stepping to-
ward their led the jingling of glasses on q
tray being heard with the utmost distinct
ness at the same time, and forcibty suggest
ing the idea that the aged dame, with her
usual hospitality, was bringing them the
accustomed offering Of cake and wine.
Il bave heard my Old grandmother's sim
eular step, and The clear jingle and RUG Of
her vine glasses" said Mr.. Smith, when
recountng these odd things to me, Gas dis
tinc,ly in tie dead Of night, as ever heard
i, when it when at her house. And my
wife heard it too, though our door was
locked, and every one in the house abed and
asleep" And this, it must be remembered,
for months before the old lady's death 1t.
