A, Adventure i'm n Graveyard.

As the person who has charge OF the
Methodist Cemetery, near this city, was
passing through the grounds early one
morning this week, he was suddenly con-
fronted by the apparition of a man. per
fectly naked, standing on grave. Ter
ror seized the poor sextou, his trembling
limbs refused to bear him, and he was
compelled to grasp friendly railing for
support. Thoughts of ghosts, spirits an9
hobgoblins passed through his troubled
brain, and he imagined that it must be
the spirit of some wicked mortal, whose
many sins would not permit him to rest
in peace and quiet in his narrow bed
and, like the ghost in Hamlet" was
doomed to walk the earth for a certain
period. But his cogitations were sudden
iy interrupted by o voice proceeding
from said apparitiou, wEech invited him
to closer acquaintanceship, OF IN other
words, told him to come here. SUM,
moning up all his resolution, the "Old
Sexton" made his way to the figure, when
lie discovered that the supposed 'Jost.,
was small!pox patient, who had escaped
from the hospital in fit Of delirium,
and whose lights lodging in the grave
yard had brought to his senses. DE pro,
cured the man some wearing apparel, and
had hin conducted back to the place
from whence he came.-Erehdnge

Important Communication from u Ma
val Characterization Of Southern
Society Agricultural Interests.
Press Dispatch.

New YORK, June 28.-Au intelligent
officer of the navy, says the Commercial
Advertiser, who has been for two years
with the South Atlantic squadron, and
who has enjoyed unusual opportunities
for looking at the South and the cOndi-
ton of society there, has communicated
some important facts to the United
States. The quantity of cotton from
Georgia and South Carolina Will be less
than has been expected. On wide lot
of territory between Savannah and
Greensville all the cotton was destroyed
Outside of this and toward the coast the
cotton is unginned and unbaled is hidden
away and will not be brought out for
fear of confscation. The owners are
very generally coming within the $50
900 range of The Presidents amnesty to
secure such cotton as there Is. Light
draught steamers are needed to navigate
the rivers.
These States are drained of goods of all
sorts, and although many goods have
been taken there, many have been re-
shipped, owingto the difficulty OF selling
them. Our informant thinks they should
be left there, as trade is sure to revive as
rapidly as the veXed questions OF Titles
are settled The pine lands OF the South
offer great advantages to labor and capt
tai. and will be great source OF wealth.
Mills are needed and men to direct them.
The draft animals are gone, and labor Is
pretty thoroughly demoraized.
The rice districts are partially planted
on shares and cultivated by free labor,
bpt the cultivation is inadequate and the
crop promises TO be small. The freed
men do not work we'll yet. They are in
efficiently treated and there is too much
humaDitarianism in their management.
Provost Marshal law is the law of the
country and is oppressive, audaclous and
| i'll hammered On the sea islands are
| l2O. 900 negroes, who work little and are
fed in part by the Government These
islands are partly owned at the North
and it is thought that Gen: Sherman
assignment g.them to col6red occupation
will not hold good, as they will he re-
claimed by the real prOprietors.
The region on the ST. Johns rlvel offers
great advantages to emigrants and TO the
! investment of capital.
The Southern railroads must be man
aged and owned by Northern men ihey
are in a very distressed state, rolling
stock aud tracks being gone.

course of very few years, say three ol

HE TORNADO IN MINNEsoTA.-An IN
stance of the fury of the tornado near
Red Wing, Minnesota, on the l7tIi inst,
is given in the St Paul Press of the 10th;
The escape of Sheriff Chandler was re-
markable He was riding through Vasa
township, when suddenly the air grew
sitting. He instinctively sprang from
his buggy, and, seizing young sapling,
Law fat upon the ground. Nosooner had
he done so than his horse and buggy
were literally carried away. The buggy
was torn into splinters. and the horse was
carried forty rods by actual measure
ment, lodged in the tops OF some small
trees, and so entaRgled in the brush and
harness as to be unable TO extricate him
self. He vas found, trembling with fear
in this condition. Mr.. Chandler only
saved himselfby clinging to the sapling
and. as il was, he was blown straight
into the air, and for a moment hung by
his hands.
Numerous stories are aflOat as to the
freaks of the storm, such as the blowing
of cattle across the river, tearing the
feathers from chickens, infiicting sudden
death upon numerous cats, dogs, &c, II
a singular manner, all of which though
they may not be impossible, we cannot
vouch for.
