Considerable excitement has been
created within the past week on one of
our ferries, by report that the ghost
Of an individual, somewhat prominent
in our city politics, had been seen sew
eral times on board the boats while
crossing. The individual, whose ghost
was thus revisiting the glimpses Of the
moon, was recently sentenced to three
months imprisonment in the Tombs,
for the assault on Mr.. Schell, in the
somewhat notorious Tammany Hall
riot. Some persons, who have a NO.
toin that man is not entitled to sport
a ghost until after he is dead, made
some enquiries into the matter, since
when the apparatioo, or whatever else
it was. has disappeared from its usua
haupts. 1t is supposed that the prison
keeper has been admonished to keep
his inmates closer f.r the future.
