GENUINE GHosT SToRY.-The Monongahela
pa Republican SAYS: Not very long ago
the young and beautiful wife of one Of our
citizens was called to her final account, leav
ing her husband disconsolate, sad, bereft-
Sic was buried in the adjacent cemetery, and
1he husband returned to his desOlate home
but not to forget the loved one. She was
present with him by day in spirit, and in his
dreams at night. One popularity Of his
dreams, aud one that haunted him, being
repeated night after night, was this, that the
spirit of his wife came to his bedside and told
him that the undertaken had not removed
from her face the square piece of muslin or
napkin which had been used to cover her face
after DEATH but had screwed down her coffin
lid with it upon her; that she could not
breathe in her grave, but was unrest on
account of the napkin. He tried to drive the
dpean away. bat it bided with him by night
and troubled him by day.
In despair he sought the undertaken, Mr.
Dickey, who told him that the napkin had
not been removed, but urged him to forget
the circumstance. as it could not be any pos
sble annoyance to inanmate clay. While
the gentleman frankly acknowledged this, he
could not avoid the appartion, and continual
stress upon his mind began to tell upon his
health. AT length he determined to have the
body disinterred, and visited the undertaken
for that purpose. Here he was met with the
same advice and persuasion, and convinced
once more of his folly, the haunted man
returned 20 his home That night. more
yigid than ever, mere terribly real than
before, she came to his bedside and upbraid
ed him for his want of affection, and would
not leave him untii he promised to remove
the cause OF all her suffering. The next night,
with friend. he repaired to the sexton. who
prevailed upon to accompany them, and
there, by the light of the moon, the body was
lifted from its narrow bed, the coffin lid
unserewed, aud the napkin removed from the
face of the corpse. That night she came to
his bedside once niore. bat for. the last time.
Thanking him for his kindness, she pressed
her cold lips to his cheek, and came again no

Fearful Death.

In the late fire which occurred at Oil
Springs, iresulting.in the loss Of the Hartford
Oil Refinery, man was literally baked to
death lie was, at the time of the fire, clean
ing out one Of the stills To effect this, he
had to descend into the still by small lad
der which has to be drawn up to enable a
man to 90 about his task. Whilst thus work
ing, by some means through the pipe becom-
ing2disconnected under the hands OF his fellow
workman on the refinery, the oil ran out, and
communicating with the fire, the whole mass
was, in moment, blazing. The man VINO
escaped, endeavored to extricate his fellow
workmen, and succeeded in grasplng. his
hand, but he was unable to retain his hold
through the fierce flame which was rapidly
surrounding him, and, to save himself. was
compelled to abandod his companion; IN the
meanwhile, being himself severely burnt IN
his effort TO rescue. Rushing through the
flames. he escapes, and standing IN the open
air. only TO hear. in common with the assem-
bled neighbors, the hopeless cry for help
which every now and then rang above the
roar of flaming oil from the still which was
TO prove the terrible tomb in which, unscath'
ed by flame. living man was TO grapple
with the death heat as hotter and hotter
grew the iron, closer and more stiff1lng the
atmosphere, and more intense, thouSn eacn
time feebler, the attempt to draw breath;
till at last the almost equally painful silence
told the horror stricken spectators, who stood
powerlessly, that all was over, and that soon
nothing but a blaokened mass would remain
of the man who not an hour before was in the
prime of life and health. To add to their
distress. the wife of the dying sufferer hur-
ried to the scene, but only to hear the last
cry that came from that terrible tomb, and
to be borne back again stunned with her
grief, to fold almost unconsciously within
her arms four little fatherless ones. The
poor man was subsequently found in an
upright posture, leaning against the corner
of the sill, and though not touched by the
fire. he was but a black, charred mass,
whose clothes crumbed away at the first
touch, only to reveal the bare, burnt skeleton
of the man Hutchneon.- Ostario)

BURIED IN A MINE.-Another cave occur
red in the Chollar Potosi mine on the 9th
inst, when Patrick Price vas killed and
buried beneath the caving mass. The
TresPass gives the following touching
scene:
His fellow workman, who was helping
him. put the set in place, made his, escape
from being carried down with the falling
mass by stepping to the south to firm ground.
Immediately his fellow-miners collected at
the edge Of the cave, and he spoke to them
from where he was buried, asking them to
get him out as soon as possible. They,
however, could not extend to him any aid i,
rs it was beyond the possibility Of human
strength to keep the earth above from falling ::
yet, in answer to their companions piteous
appeals for aid, they could but encourage
and bid him to be Of good cheer; that in
short time they would aid him to his liberty
How terrible the poor fellows situation.-
Buried in the mass of broken timbers and
quartz, he could still see the lights of his
companions cleaning on the edge of that
terrible abyss, which none dare TO enter, as
to do so would have been certain death from
the earth dropping from the cave overhead,
in detached masses; he could converse with
his old and tried friends, and perhaps receive
some ray of hope from their kindly meant
assurances of ultimate safety and yet, as
he felt the earth that pressed around him,
and the ecruel tim bers that bound him, slowly
sinking, how terrible must have been Ais
agony. His companions, too, although con-
stituting as brave band of hearts as ever
throbbed. were powerless, and could only
stand beside that awful gulf of yawning
death, and with streaming eyes, encourage
their friend with hope that they did not nor
could not feel. After the space of one hour
had passed, second fall of earth buried him
still deeper, when he called in heart rending
voice to his companions to be quick, as be
was smothering to death and then all was
silent except the falling earth aud timbers
which suddenly gave way, forty feet above
in one grand crash, and sunk, with the ether
ground, to the lower level of the mine, where
all that is mortal of Patrick Price now lies
buried beneath thousands of tuns of ore and
timbers, perhaps never to be exhumed.
