Hastings, their father, is an infjel:
The child's disease was scarlet fever, Ten
days and nights of ever deepening gloom
had passed, and in the silent night, having
insisted that Evilyn, who had, herself shown
symptoms Of illness through the day, should
retire to bed, Euston Hastings sat alone,
watching with tightening heart. the dis
turbed sleep of the little Eve. 1t was near
midnight when that troubled sleep was
broken. The child turned from side to side
uneasily, and looked somewhat wildly around
her.
"What is the matter with my darling Z"
asked Euston Hastings, in tones Of melting
tenderness.

Euston Hastings had often contemplated
the beautiful picture Of bis child kneeling,
with clasped hands, beside her mother, to
lisp her evening prayer, or since her illness
forbade her rising from her bed, of Evelyn
knesling beside it. taking those elasped
hands in hers, and listening to Ewes softly

A RAT Srosy.-Not long since, in
an intelligent family residing in
Hampshire county, a singular circum,
stance occurred. About ten O'Clock
every evening, just before the family
retired, \ strange and unaccountable
sound would be heard. At first, it
was not thought much of, it being At
tributed to the snoring of some mem
Der Of the family, who had retired
earlier than those who heard thenoise.
But on Investigation this did not &C
count for the disturbance. Conjec-
lures oiIspirit rappings and other un-
earthly causes were rife, and the great
est alarm and fear was produced on
the younger and female members OF
the family, as night after mig ht they
heard the buzzing roaring sound. The
father and eldest son determined that
they would know the cause OF this
strange noise.
Accordingly on the next night they
awaited the repetition of the phenom
enon; when near the vitching time
Of night, the ominous sound was again
heard. With great care and caution
they ascended the stair case, the sound
growing louder as they advanced.
