Fatal Fear of Ghosts.

A very sad and fatal accident occurred at
a Iad;eS school in Montreals ON Friday last.
During the lunch hour, several of the boar
ders and scholars were in the school room,
chatting and telling stories. The converse
ton fell upon ghosts. and one of the young
disS6taats-+aF fne girl, thirtesn years OF age
SAID warmly and loudly, that before ghost
should catch her, she would throw herself out
of the window, on the sill of which she was
sitting. The preceptress, Who was IN tne
room &C the time, tapped her, desk as warn
ing to make less noise, when this unfortunate
young lady, startled by the noise, or her ner-
vous eyste1a terribly worked upon, fell or
threw herself out of the window, and died the
next morning.

Dear Sir: / am happy to say that the gal
liant conduct of our little baad in their last
encounter with the rebels (of which you have
an account by this time reflects much credit
oo the Mifdin County Cavalry. One of the
rebels was known to have been killed by cor.
poral ROmich, aud captain of the 7th South
Carolina Volunteers taken prisoner by A. B.
Selhemer, of Lewistown The Mififn coun
ty boys acted nobly, and from present appear
ances you may expect to hear more favora
tle account before many days.
The death of DR.. Alexander, of Milroy.
iour assistant surgeon has cast gloom over
the whole regiment, as he was loved by all
morning in charge Of Lieut. Mann, G. Ii.
Moore, ESQ, Of Philadephia, and his order
~ Mr.. Wagner, to be inferred in Whining gtoa,
Delaware. His wife arrived in camp about t
two hours after he died, expecting to find him
slightly wounded She was almost frantic on
hearing of his death
DR.. Alexanders death was caused by a
wound in the abdomen, the surgeon having
been unable to extract the bali
Col Bayard's Nurse was pierced BY twelve
balls, and his clothes fairly riddIed, yet he
escaped with slight scratch. ~.
