When Mr. n, first heard of the circumstance

When Mr.. Fl. first heard of the circumstance
he very naturally was led to suspect that it pro.
ceeded from some one in the neighborhood, or
family, who possessed the art of ventriloqulsm
But against that opinion lie the following obJec'
rons, viz lst. 1t is certain that it is no one, not
of the family, rs no such person has been seen
thereabouts at the times when it was heard and
no person could be there always without being
seen especially in the day time. I'd. Mr.. Bur;
nett and wife, whose word will be taken ny all
who know them, state that no one individual OF
the family, who could possibly be suspected OF
sach thing, is always present at such times.
They State positively, it has been heard when
the negro woman (the only servant about the
housed was in the field at work. 1t has been
heard when the two older sons, who are nearly
grown were absent, rs was the fact when MIR.
H. heard it. 1t has been heard when al the
other children were at school, except the two
Youngest, one of which is about three years OLD,
the other an infant. The idiot girl has not the
otelliocnce which this invisible being manitests,
according to the testimony OF oil VINO nave
heard it.
Furthermore, even supposing any of the chill
dren possessed this faculty, and had the DISPOSE
lion to carry on the deception, for so long time,
t, the evident disquietuda and distress of the
family, is it rational suppositon that this could
be;done without being suspected by the parents ?
Or would not the individual be disposed to try
its pranks at school, or among other children to
frighten them, as we'll as at home2 There is
another circumstance which contradicts this sup
position. About two months ago, Mr.. Burnett
at the suggestion of some one, put Testament
in the place, whence the voice appeared to. pro-
ceed. 1t instantly left the place, came down
into the house, and said it was going away. They
asked why it was going away. 1t treplied, it was
obliged to 60, it could stay there no longer, and
bade them farewell It was then absent about
two weeks, during which time it was heard al
Mr.. Rogers, Mr.. Dicks, and Nickolrs, in the
same neighborhood, as they believe. They had
heard it at Burnett's and believed it to be the
same, but did not converse with it. When it re
turned, it was asked and said it had been to
those places. None of Mr.. Burnett's family were
at those places, when it was heard. Since its
return it has occupied no particular part OF the
house, but is heard in various parts 1t IS now
sci lom heard, as Mr.. B. does not allow the chill
dren to talk to it-they do not pay much atten
ton to it.
These are the most material circumstances
connected with this strange affair, for the con
firmation of which, and for further information
the public is referred to Mr.. j. Shepherd, DR.. E
Andrews, and Mr.. G. Slappy, who live in the
neighborhood, and who have all heard it.--Mr
Burnett lives about II miles below Cambridge
and about 3 miles west of the road leading tc
Hamburg, near Mr. Wiley Berry's. z.

CONGRESSIONAL.

WASHINGTON, February 70.
The Senate, to-day, passed the bill raising the
postage to five cents for all.wcights over half an
ounce, and abolishiag the franking privilege.
The Cuban question was resumed, with the un.
derstanding that they would not adjourn until
the matter had been voted on.
The House reconsidered the vote rejecting the
Post Office bill. The Naval Appropriation bill
was up for discussion.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2G.-In the Senate, to-day,
Mr.. Slidell said, as the defective rules Of the
Senate permitted the minority to prevent vote,
he would, rather than sacrifice the appropriation
bill, and thereby render it necessary for call Of
an extra session of Congress, and particularly
as the Senate has already expressed an opinion
in favor of the acquisition Of Cuba by test
vote of twelve majority last night-he said he
would withdraw the bill, and bring it forward
the next session Of Congress.
The army appropriation bill was passed, with
an amendment of nearly one million dollars for
Notifications:
The House passed the post Office sppropris.
ton bill in the same form as reported on yester.
day.
The President sent in his veto Of the Agricul.
tural College bill.
Various amendments to the appropriation bill
were acted on and the naval appropriation bill
was debated.

The first three four days of FUR farming weather
occurred to the planters of this district during the
past week. But the showers caule again, and du-
ring Saturday night fell heavily ;-Ground too wet to
plow consequence. On every side We still hear
that farming was never more backward among our
people. The best plan, maybe, is to take it very
patiently. Wait for good weather and do your plow-
ing WE'LL if your planting is thereby thrown late into
the Spring 1t may all bo for the best in the end.
We have heard shrcwd suspicious from several watch

late and killing frost this spring.
