Boston has genuine haunted-house sem
sation. The story is that the house, gen
teel one, On Springfield street, was fitted up
and occupied between April and the 18th Of
June last, for q frst-class boarding house,
and was well-flled Immediately with pay
ing boarders. On the 18th of June, sud
denly all the bells in the house began to
ring, and from that day to this have con-
tinued to ring frequently every day, gene
rally beginning at an early hour in the
morning, and ringing at intervals all day,
but never in the night. And this has con-
tinued even since the wires of the bells have
been cut. These bell-ringing operations
have been followed by heavy poundings on
the floors Of the house ut different hours,
and by the sound of the deep, gruff voice of
man; and some profess to have seen spi-
rits fitting around.
Multitudes have been attracted to the
house, and among others the chief and
deputy chief of police but none can ia
Thorn the mystery. All the boarders have
been frightened away, and the woman who
now occupies the house is anxious to get
rid of her lease, and leave the haunted
house.
The Boston Traveller does not believe in
ghosts and hobgoblius, and is disposed tc
believe that there is roguery somewhere to
depreciate the value of the property.

The other evening two 1rishmen, new to
the country and belonging to the better
class Of euigrants, arrived in Toledo late in
the evening and stopped ut the Island House.
They were shown to room far up in the
building, the gas lighted, and they were
left alone. The weather was hot, the win
dows open, and the two gentlemen sat down
to enjoy chat. Soon, attracted by the
light and the prospect of a square meal, a
troop of the hungriest of the hungry Toledo
mosquitoes bore down on the Inflated Hi
bernians. They fought and bled, but the
enemy constantly received relnforcements,
and the travellers were in despair. The
clerk was summoned and asked agonizingly,
ais there no defence against these blood
thirsty craturs? ?" He told the travellers
that if they put out their gas and closed
their windows they would experience relief.
They acted on the suggestion and placed
themselves between the sheets. Just as
they began to doze lightning bug, which
had strayed into the room, caught the eye
of one of the travellers. He reused his com
panion with a punch "Jamie, jamie, it
is no use. Here's one of the craturs sarchin'
for us wild a lantern.''
