Bill Wilson and the Ghost.
BY MAI. JOSEPH JONES.

About two years ago, the people in
Pineville was almost Harmed out Of their
senses by ghost what made its appear
ance evry night in the grave yard. The
niggers seed it fust, and they told SIGH
terrible tales about it that the wimmin
and children was fraid to go to bed in the
dark for month, and you couldn't git
niger to go outside of the dore after dark
not for all Georgy. 1t made monstrous
talk for more'n ten miles round the set
Element, and every body was anxious to
find out whose ghost it was and what it
wanted. Old Mr. Walker what had been
cheated out of all his property by the
lawyers, hadn't been ded a great while,
and as he was monstrous curious old
chap any how, the general opinion was
that the old man had cum back for some
thing.
Sammy Stonestreet seed it, and Bob
Moreland seed it, and old Miss Curloo
seed it when she was cumin to town to
see her daughter Nancy, the night she had
her baby, and they all gave the same &C
count the niggers did, about its bein dress
ed in white and talking to its self, and
cryin and walking about among the toom
stones. Bob Moreland sed he heard it
sneeze two or three times jest as natural
as any human, and cry ever so pitiiul.
A good many of the boys sed they was
gwine to watch for it sum night and speak
to it; but sumhow ther hearts always
failed 'em bout dark, and nobody didn't
go.
One day Bill Wilson cum to town, and
was all but half corned down to Mr. Har-
ly's store, when they got to banterin him
bout the ghost.
"Ding'd if don't see who it is" ses
Bill; 81 amt fraid of no ghost that ever
walked O nights.
With that some of EN- offered to bet him
five dollars that he darsent 60 inside of the
grave yard alone after dark.
'Dun,' ses Bill, plank up yer mon
ey. But I'm to go jest as I've mind tol"
Eyes" ses the boys.
"-And shoot the ghost if see it ?" ses
''To be sure"
"-And I'm to have bottle of old
Jimmaky to keep me company.
eyes" SEES all of 'em.
agreed" ses Bill "Putu the stakes
in Mr. Harly's hand"
The money was staked and the bisness
was fixed in no time.
"Now," ses bill, "give me par of pis-
tolls and let me load EN- myself, and I'll
show you whether I'm fraid of ghosts"
Captain SINNERS big horse pistols was
sent for, and Bill loaded one of 'em up to
the muzzle, and after Citing bottle of
Ticker in his pocket, and takin two Or three
more horns to rise his courage, he wait
ed till it was dark. Every body in town
was wide awake to see how the thing
would turn out, and some of the wimmin
was monstrous consumed for Bill, for fear
he'd git carried off by the ghost shore
enuff.
Jest about dark Bill set out for the grave
yard, with a whole heap of fellers, who
went to see him to the gate.
"Look out now, Bill-you know ghosts
ismonstrous dangerous things, sed the
boys as they was bout leavin him.
"Never you mind" ses Bill. '"But re-
member, I'm to shoot"

Sonnet.

Grief dieslike joy the tears upon my cheek
Will disappear like dew. Dear God know
Thy kindly Providence hath made it so,
And thank thee for the law. l am too weak
To make friend of Sorrow; or to wear,
With that dark angel ever by my side
Though to thy Heaven there be no better
guide
A front of manly calm. Yet, for hear
How Wo hath cleansed, how Grief can defy,
So weak thing it seems that Grief should
die,
And Love and Friendship with it, could
pray
That, if it might not gloom upon my brow,
Or weigh upon my arm as it doth now,
No Grief of mine should ever pass away.

Somebody, in describing beautiful lady,
says she had 'face that a printer might
dwell upon" Rather broad face, that.
Ladies generally shop in couples
When lady has any money to spend,
she dearly loves taking friend along to
see her spend it.
1t is a difficult thing for woman, four
feet three, to marry "beneath herself" let
her try ever so hard.
Step mothers are so called, because the
day after they are married they take steps
for kicking the other woman's children
into the street.
The young lady who was 'lost in
thought" has been found. She was "hug-
ging an idea;" it looked like man.
The strongest kind of hint--a lady
asking gentleman to see if one OF her
rings will go on his little finger.
New refrigerator--to cool the atmosp-
here, brag of another woman's good looks
in the presence of your wife.
One of the toasts drunk at recent cele-
bration was
"Womanl She requires no eulogy-
she speaks for herself"

TO THE PUBLIC.
Hail F! honored ages of grand progression,
While each one clings to his profession,
And science moves with onward motion,
To suit each hayward thought and notion,
Bringing to light, some new invention,
More strange than modern wit can mention,
Or genius paint with true endeavor,
Though making graphic strides forever,
While reason urges proud ambition,
To strive for wondrous competition;
Yet in this age of glorious Art,
We can the need of praise impart,
When meritorious efforts claim
A modest puff to gild the name,
And thus we call with honest pride,
Attention to the Painters Side,
Two men who bravely know their calling,
Whose works are worthy of extolling,
Two model artists of the day,
And most obliging in their way,
Moreland u Jakeman-mark the name,
In Roanoke street you'll find the same,
Call at their shop number one,
You'll get the best of Painting done,
And whether Foe, Friend, or neighbor,
They'll charge but moderate for their labor,
So now invite each one and all,
So walk around, and give them call.

| hear below on the pavement
The falling of passing feet,
And ray from a strangers lantern
Comes up from the lonely street,
And moves, like ghost, through my
chamber
So silently and so feet.
1t is gone and l am sitting
Alone in my darkened room,
And a CLEAN fits through my spirit
Then, leaves it in grief and GLOOM
For think of my boyhoods darling,
And then of her marble tomb.

On Picture of Hero and Leander

Why, Lover, why
Such water-rover
Would she love thee more
For coming half seas oUer
Why, Lady, why
SO in love with dipping?
Vast lad of Greece
Came all over drippings
Why, Cupid, why
Make the passage brighter?
Were not any boat
Better than lighter 2
Why, Madam, why
So intrusive standing2
Must thou be on the stair
When he's on the landingf
Hood.
