A Haunted woman.

t1tlH y correspondence
It was in Goldsboro in 1856 during the early
part Of the war there lived the wife--a handsomt
and worthy lady--of Mr.-who was then trusty
engineer on the North Carolina railroad. They
were northern people but full IN the confidence d
lcurown section Mrs.--lived In The suburbs d
the town--and her;husband being Off on the road
she was by herself great. part Of the time. II
soon began to be talked about the town that Mrs
was subjected to q very singular and alarming am
noyancc that afflicted her house every night.
WHAT DID 1T MxAM
Nobody could tell, but certain It Is that at nigh
as Sfrs.--would be sitting III her room big rock
then another, and another, would be dashed in al
her window and would fall with a crash upon III,
floor. The mystery Is, where did the rocks come
from For rocks are mighty scarce in that see
ton. One morning golddollr was found under
the window--thst was all that was ever seen. Blu
80 alarming did this abuse become that confeder
ate soldiers were stationed as guard around til,
house. Solong as they We're there all was quiet
But the very moment they were taken ava,
"crash r would come d rock.
~ THE MYSTERY SOLVED.
One day as Mrs.--was walking on the street shs
saw fine looking gentleman approaching her wis
seemed ready to speak to her. Sure enough he d,
speak 70 her and scizing her hand shook ii warm
" rejoicing In an exsrayasant measure over III,
privilege Of meeting with her. The man was
stranger to her, and he called her by another nam,
than her own and she told him sc--but he ychc
mently protested that he was right and that HI
could not be mistaken.

weak under the defeat OF the postal

were heavy in consequence OF the anticipated en-
forcement OF the collection of the five per cent inter-
nal revenue tax on the scrip dividends, and Reading
was firm on renewed impetus given 1t by the Phila-

Navy who were greatly disconcerted when the "Prln-

REMARKABLE SCENE At A MURDER TRIAL.
Conviction for Murder in the First Degree
Touching Prayer by the Prisoner.

Conviction for Murder In the First Degree
Touching Prayer by tho Prisoner.
From the Janevllle twisconsin) Gazette, May 27.l
After listening to the charge OF the Judge this
morning the Jury upon the Barrett murder trial re-
tired. Their verdict, after an absence OF two
hours and half, was. "G1aty OF murder In the
the Indictment" The defendant was charged with
killing brother Oliver in the town OF Magnolia In
this county, on Sunday, the 10Th day OF March, 1858,
by plunging butcher knife into his heart. The
grief OF the prisoner and his friends upon the rem
dering OF this verdict was uncontroable bursting
forth IN wall OF agony, and the eyes OF many
spectators In the court room were filled with tears
When the emotion had somewhat subsidized the pris
oner knet and offered the following really touching
and impressive prayer.
