THE OLD HOMESTEAD: OR
MIDNIGHT VISITOR.
BY ELLEN WAREHAM.
TConcEuded. I

Hastily packing the few articles neces-
sary for their journey, they departed unme-
Tested in carriage which had been pre-
viously secured by Francis, and bent their
rapid course for London. Two days after,
they were on board ship bound for Bos-
ton, where they landed in safety, after a
short passage. Learning that the estate in
Lexington was for sale, Morris purchased it
and Immediately took possession.
Time rolled on without any extraordinary
event transpiring until the last year of
their residence at the homestead Often
did Francis and his wife complain Of hear
ing strange noises, and that from the win
dow where they slept they had seen man
on horseback urging his steed at its utmost
speed towards the house, and that as soon
as he arrived at the door he would throw
the reins across his horses neck, dismount
and enter the house, ascend the stairs, and
after the lapse of half an hour he would re-
turn, mount his steed and ride away with
the speed of the wind. For time Mr..
Warner paid no heed to the story, until he
learned one day by accident that many of
the villagers had watched and seen the
same phenomenon. This troubled him
much, and he determined to watch for the
spectre.
'Did you recognize any person you had
ever seen before in this midnight visitor,
Francis ?" inquired Mr.. Warner.
eyes, sir, it resembled your brother who
died many years since,' was the reply.
s'Indeed! you excite my curiosity, Fran
cis how many times have you seen this
strange sight-more than once?:''
''Seven times have seen it as plain as
now see you," said Francis looking around
him.
Morris made no further inquiries, but
that night sat up and watched for the COM
ing of the troubled spirit, as he deemed it
must be.
The early hours of the evening passed
away and all save himself had retired and
were locked in the arms of sleep. Sitting
down before the fire, he mused on past
events, and vainly endeavored to peer into
the future. His mind wandered back over
the trackless ocean to the old manor house,
where the days of his infancy had been
passed. He saw his loved mother bend
over him with smile Of material affection,
and he wept-then he thought of his fathers
cruelty, and the fountains of his soul be-
came dry and he was cold and stern again.
He rose and looked at his watch 1t was
precisely twelve, yet nothing occurred to
disturb him save his own troubled thoughts
Rising from his seat, he approached the
window and. looked out upon the SCENE be-
fore him. 1t was cold December night;

There il little bonnet,
I see it about town,
With little feather on It
That tosses up and down.
Beneath this little bonnet
Are two such jet black eyes
Oh! that cosy little bonnet
L shall waste myself in sighs!
And what wonder f-see it moving
Adown the crowed street,
The little feather bowling DER it,
Nodding to the fairy feet.
Proudly goes the little bonnet,
Proudly trip the little feet,
And laughingly the eyes beam out,
On everything they meet.
Ho! clear the way, false curls.
With your faded beauty tricks!
Ha! clear the way, ye suckers,
Ofthe white nobs of your sticks,
Ho smokers of Havanas.
Stop your putting ere that eye
Puts stopper on your fire,
With its liquid brilliancy.
Proudly goes the little bonnet,
Proudly step the little feet,
And laughingly the eyes b~am out
On everything they meet!

DELAY should occur to prevent such discharge Of its
functions az the law and necessity designed in its

ARTISTS IN CoURT. Quite an array Of musi-
cal distingufs presented themselves, few days
since. at one OF the uptown district courts, in
terested in the issue of case in which Madame
Sontag and her husband, the Count de Rossi,
appeared as defendants. This is not the
first time that prin,a dome have had to sub
NIT, in this city and elsewhere. to the like dis
agreeable necessity. Jenny Lind had to appear
in court, under somewhat similar circum-
stances TO those which drew Madame Sontag
within place so unsuited to her tastes and
habits. However, there was no help for it.
The Queen Of Song was but simple private
person in the temple of Justice, and had even
to occupy the witness stand and reply to the
interrogatories of counsel. The action was
brought by one of the company of chorus sing
ers. for an alleged claim for wages which Ma
dame SIS agent refused to accede to-hence this
little disagreeable episode in her American
life. Madame S. must, however, be somewhat
consoled by the reflection that she is not the
only one of her class who has been thus COM
PEELED to pass through this unpleasant ordeal
and it mnst also be solace to her to reflect
that the Judgment of the court was in her ia
vor; protecting her from tie suspicion that she
could have countenanced any unfair dealings
towards her poorer assistants. A report of the
no doubt attract considerable attention.
