Thrilling Discovery.
The following wonderful story is told by the
London correspondent Of The Dublin Fleming
Mail;
This is the age Of discov cries, and one of such
a startling nature he's Just been made in an Eng
fish county, that il seems out of place in the
reign of sober fact, and to belong purely to the
atmosphere of the three-volume novel Here
are the circumstances the names for the mo-
ment we are not at liberty to indicate. The
earl of ---- married not long ago, and bro't
his bride home to one of the old family man
sions which members of the English aristocracy
regard with an affection that amounts TO vener-
alton. The lady, however, being more CONT
mental in her tastes, after short residence III
I the apartments appropriated to her use, express
ed wish TO have o bondoir in the vicinity OF
! her bedroom. The noble earl would gladly have
complied with the request, but, upon examina-
/ ton, it was found that rooms, as sometimes nap
pen in antique buildings, were 50 aWkwardly
distributed that by no conceivable plan OF re-
arrangement could the desired boudoir be fitted
/ in Thereupon it became necessary to invoke
professional assistance, and all eminent arcni-
/ tect was summoned from London. He exam
! ined the house narrowly, and said there seemed
! to be nothing for it but to build, though al the
same time he could not resist the Impression
that there must be another undiscovered room
somewhere in that wing of the mansion.
| The NOZZLE earl laughed at the idea the cid
est servants and retainers of the family were
questioned, and declared that they never heard
! Of its nYiSfnnP6. The ordinary
methods of tapping, &c, were resoited to-, but
without effect. Still, the architect retained his
conviction, and declared himself ready to stake
| his professional reputation on the result The
earl at last consented to let the walls be bored,
and, when the opening had been made, not en-
| ly was the room found, but sight presented
itself which almost defeats attempts at descrlp'
ton. The apartment was fitted up IN the rich
est and most luxurious styie of $50 years ago.
A quantity of lady's apparel lay about the room,
Jewels were scattered on the dressing tabe,and,
| but for the faded aspect which everything wore,
the chamber might have been tenanted haitian
hour previously; On approaching the bed, the
most curious sight of al was seen, and this is
what affords the only clue to the mystery
The couch held the skeleton of a female, and
On the floor, underneath the bed, half IN and
half out, lay another skeleton, that OF q man,

must have received some dreadful injury
The secret connected with this tale of blood
has been we'll kept, for not merely had all tra-
dition of the scene faded away, but even the
existence of the room itself was forgotten.-
| The survivors, probably, walled up the apart
ment at the time, and its contents remained
Theoretically sealed up till the present day,
when, according to tho best calculations, after
the lapse of century and halt, daylight has
accidentally penetrated into this chamber of
horrors, which TO the surprise of all concerned,
has been discovered in one of the noblest man
sons ill the county of ".
