The Last Ghost story

The Corinth, Miss, Caucasian of re
cont date says: A strange and surpris-
ing incident occurred last week, i'm the
country, some miles north of COrinth
A Me-. Mangrum killed young man
during tho war, and few days since
: Mr.. Mangrum was on deer drive, and
while ut one Of the stands he saw an
object approaching him, which so
alarmed him that he raised his gun and
fired at it. Tho object, which RESENT
bied man covered with a sheet, con-
tinued to advance upon NJ. Man
grum, when he drew his pistol and
emptied all the barrels at the
ghost. None of the shots seeming to
take effect, no climbed a tree to make
his escape. BY the time he was q short
distance up the tree, the white object
was sta nding under him, with its eyes
fixed upon him, and he declared that it
was the spirit of the young man whom
he had killed. Mangrum was 80 star
tied at the steady gaze of the eye that
he had been the cause of laying cold in
death, that he faiuted and fell from the
tree. His friend carried him home, the
ghost following and standing before
him constantly, the sight of which
brought up the recollection of his guilt
with such d force to his mind that he
died in great agony, after two or three
days suffering.

The Legal Tender Act

Ike Republicans passed this law,
which repudiates all contracts made
before it in gold, and authorized their
payment in deprecated paper money,
worth only thirty, or forty, or fifty
cents on the dollar. The people &C
quiesced and submitted to this virtual
reputation and cOnfiscation, and they
adapted their business to that basis
Now, when a continuance of this legal,
tender system will benefit the people,
by paying off the bondholders in the
same currency in which the debt was
created, they are opposed toit. Having
passed the act when it was seriously
detrimental to the interests of the coun-
try, they are now for repeating 1t, when
its repeal would work much injury to
the laboIing class. Their policy is to
contract to pay, and expand to borrow;
They favored legal-tenders to pay gold
debts in ls62-34-5; but now paid i'll
gold. The people will hardly accom-
modate them.-AltOORa Vmdicator.
