JOB PRESS FOR, SALE.

Having two new Job Presses, one half-medi-

work. Having two new presses, one larger and
the other smaller, we can dispense with the one
of intermediate size and will sell it for half what
a new press of the same size would cost. No
country newspaper Office should be without Job
Press. and the one we have for sale can be bought

our Presses-having five. Those in want of such
a Press should address us Immediately.

The kIbem arIe Ghost.

The Scottsville Register of November Both
says:
1.-The mysterious gentleman with the excep-
ton of ore night has given positive evidence
that he s'was thar. He continues to throw
his lights, and recently has thrown number OF
stones, &c, on and about the house.
As prudent and brave men as ever shouldered
a musket have guarded the house every night
but with all their bravery, skill and strategy,
they are unable to kill or arrest the mysterious
parsonage He has been shot at frequently,
since our last report; and on one occasion, was,
when shot at, known to run, and laugh aloud.
We believe, however, that he will soon be
tracked to his den.
