been recommended for the MayOralty in Ha-

CHARGED WITH MURDER By A GHOST.

Laban Mercer was pat on trial in Wetze!I
county; or Wednesday last, charged with the
murder of John Gamble. The murder was
committed in 1850, and subsequently the body
of the deceased was founH floating down the
Ohio, and no clue was had to the author OF
the deed until last Fall, when respectable cit
izen of the county went before magistrate
and made affidavit that ghost had confronted
him after night, in the woods, and told him
that Mercer was the murderer of Gamble
This with other suspicious circumstances, led to
the arrest of the accused, who is Fow on trial.
Whether, what the ghost" IS alleged to have
stated will be considered legal evidence has
not been decided. Other witnesses, having no
connection with the ghost story, have so far,
occupied the time Of the court in giving IN
their evidence:
p. S.-The Court ruled out the testimony Of
the "ghost," and the prisoner was discharged.

TRAGICAL AND MOST SINGULAR o


A correspondent of the Cleveland Plain
dealer, writing from WanPocca county, Wis
consin, says: ......-
A farmer sold yoke of oxen TO an indigid-
ual in the reighborho0d, and received his
pay in paper money. The man who purchas-
ed the oxen, being in hurry to start off, re-
quested the farmer to assist him in yoking
them up. He accordingly went to the yard
with the man for that purpose leaving the
money lying on the table; On fis return to
the house he found his little child had taken
the money fsctn the table and was III the act
of kindling the fire in the stove with it
From The impulse of the moment, lie hit the
child slap on the side Of the head, as to
knock it over; and, in the fall, it struck its
head against the stove With srch force rs to
break its skull. The mother, who was in the
act Of washing a small child in tub of water,
in the adjoining room, hearing the fracas
dropped the child and ran to the room
whence the. noise proceedcd-ahd was so
much terrified at wha: sire there beheld she
forgot the little child in the tub for time; and
upon her return to the room found the little
one drowned The husband after fec mo-
roents te7ie@ing The scene before him, seeing
two of his own children dead, without further
reflection, took his gun down and blew MS own
hrains I2dikkerShin.

TIE Eclipse

An annular eclipse of the sun, as we have
before observed, win occur or the goth of the
present month. The Boston journal thus
speaks of the matter:
at viii commence at thirty-three minutes
past o'clock in the morning, and continue
two hours and four minutes, or until about
twenty-three minutes before o'clock. So
our readers will have to rise betimes to sec 1t.
In this eclipse the apparent diameter of the
moon compared with that of the sun viii be
about rs Is to 10, and consequently some
nine-tenths of the sin will be covered. The
path of the eclipse will cross the western part
of the Atlantic ocean, Massachusetts,, Maine,
New Hampshire, Vermont, New York, Upper
Canada, Lake Superior, Northwest and Wash
ington Territories, and thence through the
southern edge of British America to the Pa
cific ocean. The central line Of the eclipse
will enter New England near Portsmouth,
and its path will extend sixty-two miles on
either side. Boston will fall within its path.
To those on the central line the sun will APP
pear, during the middle of the eclipse, like
huge circle of light; the moon covering every
part except d very narrow rim on the outside.
In Boston the appearance will be much the
same, only the ring of light viii be wider on
one side than on the other, The central path
of the eclipse will be from Kittery, opposite
Portsmouth, in Il northwesterly direction,
through the towns of Dover, Darlington,
Pittsfeld, Canterbury, Franklin, Hill, Grafton,
and Lebanon. The eclipse will, however, be
visible, to greater or less extent, in all parts
of North America excepting Guatemala and
the southwest part of Mexico. 1t will also be
visible in Ireland, Greenland, Northern Russia,
parts of Sweden and Norway, the eastern part
of Asia, the West Indies, aud in the northern
countries of South America.

ING.
Success in farming depends very much
upon the proper preparation of the soil
for the reception, and ready termination
of the seed.
There has been loo great a rage FORE ca
81 running plows," losing sight oflthesre-
quisites for due pulverization of the soil.
That is the best pillow, which shall most
perfectly prepare the ground for the PEN
etration of the roots and their minute f.
bers, to the greatest required depth.
A mould board considerably concave. if
OF due form otherwise. will pass through
theground easier to the team, than one diff
fcrently formed. But in the great majority
ofcases, what you gain by this popularity
OF construction, in ease of draft. you
more than lose by want of proper adepta-
zion Of tie soil to your crops. In sandy,
and in certain states of some other kinds
of soils, it is not easy to pass any kind of
aplow through the surface, without the
soil being tolerably we'll pulverized
With the generally fiat, and tenacious soil
of Ohio, it seldom happens that the far
mer can avail himself of both favorable
weather, and proper condition of the
soil at the same time. ... .....
When the seed terminates, and sends
out its fbrous roots in search of aliment,
it is highly essential that they find a IA
vorable condition Of the soil for their pro,
gross. 1.-THE young tender plant requires
this favorable state, how much more es'
sential is it, that the vigorous, tall corn,
with its numerous root fibres. should have
deep, mellow bed, in which to reach
ard extend themselves, unobstructed by
furrow slices ofimpacted and impenetra-
BILE clay.
The farmer would laugh immoderately
at the Psychologist who would tell him to
swallow his corn, or his potatoes aOhole
Yet the farmer, while he complains that
his miller don't sharpen his burr-stones
sufficiently, and scolds the cook for SEN
ding lumPy potatoes to the table, is more
inconsistent than those at whom he laughs,
for while can eat the bread from coarse
meal, the plant can neither eat its clods
and Jumps, nor penetrate to their center
IN search OF their alkaline salts, and other
constituents of which the plant is made
up; and free access to which, will alone
ensure liberal harvest of the much de-
sired grain.

SHOCKING TRAGEDY IN V1RG1N1A.-The
Petersburg (Va.) Express has letter
from Accomac Courthouse. giving an &C.
count of the horrible murder of a man
named George East, by his step son, who
is yet minor. The letter says:
" Overtaking East he stabbed him re-
peatedly behind, till he fell, when the
assassin got upon him and literally cut
him to pieces-riping out the bowels from
the breast down-cutling him in the breast
laying open his heart an inch or two, and
stabblng and gashing him in a number of
places. And to cap the climax, after the
blood thirsty monster had left him, fear
ing, as he says, that he was not dead, he
returned, propped up the body against the
fence, and cut the throat from ear to ear,
the wound extending entirely through the
windPipe, and disjointing the neck. He
then returned to town and delivered him
self up, saying he had been intending to
do it for long time"
He alleged, in his defense, that his
mother had been ill-treated by the de-
ceased, but it is thought they had fallen
out about the property of Mrs. East
The parties were heretofore respectable.
and in good circumstances. 1t is also
stated that it will be difficult to prevent
the populace from lynchng the prisoner
SO great is the excitement.
