A CHANGE IN TRADE.-Undcr the ope-
rations of the Atlantic cable and the West
India telegraph, the trade between Europe
and the United States is undergoing a
change in its management which is vastly
to the interest OF ship-owners. For in
stance, merchant in this or other At
lantic cities dispatches telegram by At
lantic cable to the master Of his ship at
Liverpool ordering him to Key West,
Florida, for orders. The captain, on reach
ing that port, notifies his owners Of his ar
rival, and they at once direct him to clear
for Charleston, Savannah, Mobile, New
Orleans, Galveston, or wherever else
freight offers at the best rates. These adj
vantages are fully appreciated by the mer-
camille community, and the central posi-
ton and convenience of Key West as a
port Of call arc making themselves felt by
adding greatly to the trade of that place.

TIE STEAMER MAGNOLIA DIsAsTER.-lt
is supposed that upwards of eighty lives
were lost by the Magnolia steamboat disas-
ter, near California, Ohio, last week, though
a full list of the uniortuuates has not been
given. Among the injured persons saved
was n. D. or A. D. Ridenour, OF Strasburg,
Va, who was badly bruised and cut about
the eyes. At the time of the accident he
was standing in the forward part of the
boat, and was blown into the river, where
he sank several times, but finally, grasping
portion of the wreck floating by, worked
his way to the shore.

FLUvANNA GHOST DEMONSTRATIONS
similar to those made at the residence Of
Mr.. Moon have, during the present week,
been made at the house Of prominent
gentleman in Fluvanna two or three miles
from Scottsville. We will not give par
ticulars until We get the consent of those
directly interested. We can, however,
state that nothing has occurred at the res
idence of Mr.. Moon to excel in daring and
impudence the course pursued by the
"ghost" and his dog in "Old Flu" on
Wednesday night last. The house Of the
gentleman was entered with false keys, and
the chamber in which he and his sick wife
had retired for the night was entered by
some unknown person accompanied by a
dog. AS soon as the light was struck the
ghostly gentleman left the premises, having
made no response to questions asked, and
taking nothing with him as far as known.
