Mysteries ef virsi.i. City.

We are told horrible story Of the dark and
bloody days Of Virginia by one of the oldest
policemen Of that city. 1t is almost too mon
strous for belief, yet our informant declares that
every word of what he tells us is true. and if any
person doubts what he has told us we are at
liberty to give his name and send the slsubfers fo
to him; further, that he will bring two other
men who will cnrr"l-'rafc all that he has said.
SHAFT FILL OF DEAD MEN.
The officer (now an ex-officer) states that ten
feet north of the fire-cistern at the corner of B
and Union streets, near the middle of B street. is
an old shaft about eighty feet in depth, in which
lie the bodies, or rather bones of thirty men that
were murdered in early days and tumbl,d into
the shaft for coneealment. He says they were
mostly strangers, who were stabbed or sluny
sIlotted for their money, though he says few
who died from the effects of drugs OF had whis-
Ky, were also dumped into the great charnel pitt
In going to Our lodgings last night our ipfnr-
mant accompanied MS, his r,ons being In the
same quarter of the city. Our r,,ad led past the
place where the old shaft is located. II was inst
the witching hour Of midnight when we came tn
the spot, the hour when Ih''sts are supp~,sr,l to
walk.
Here" said the officer. measuring the distance
from the cisfern with his rye Z" lust al,out
here marking out n circle in the street with his
cane, us the old shaft, and in it is what told
you. fmy word il doubted the shaft can br
opened and explorrt.- .Are yam then so sure
of what you say that you would be willing to
stake your reputation on the truth of what you
have told us in regard To this shaft - we asked
" Nest assuresily am. What have told you
know to be trne. In this shaft beneath our feet
lie the bones Of over thirty numbered men," He |
is not certain whether the shaft was filled up |
with waste dirt OF whether it was planke.l over.
but thinks it was covered with planks and after
wards with few feet of dirt
He informs ms that he has a recori of the dead |
not only Of those whose bodies lie rotting in the
shaft, hut also Of sll who have died from any |
cause, natural, accidental by violence in vir-
gInia since his arrival in the town in early tays;
also knows where every man was buried. and. II |
removed, where removed to. 1t seems strange |
that If there are such number of dead bodies In |
any shaft about Virginia that the story of the |
great charnel pit should not have been told be- |
lore The story of this shaft filed with dead
mems bones was told us in the presence Of CITY
Jailer Enders who will bear witness that we |
have told the story as 1t was told us-Gold Hin.

it, and discovered his mistake. The lady had
been csmmitfing the absured and unaccountabls
folly Of slarkenng the circle about her ewes with
black paint or pigment used fort the hideous pur-
pose, aud tho tears had streaked her face in n
most lndicrous style. BY some intuition she
seemed fo realize the effect. and left the table

Sugar for Salt. "A good joke was
unwitingly perpetrated by one of our
merchants, the other day, but who it
is on, is to be determined. Wiley, our
genial livery man sent to Spafford &
Compton's for dimes worth of salt
The boy returned with four pounds as
he supposed, and for several days fed
it to the horses. Either the horses
did, or did not eat it with a relish, which
caused an investigation when the sail
was found to be A Coffee Sugar. Har-
ry Compton is out just four pounds OF
sugar and the girls pronounce that new
buggy of Willey's just the sweetest
vehicle to ride in in our city.

was made the occasion for a picnic CIV
en- by Miss ?. to the little ones in a
fine grove just south of Mr.. Edward s
mill, where assembled pupils, and par
ents, and visitors from Grand Rapids
and Centralia to the number Of forty
or fifty. All were as happy as sun
shine tempered by the leafy awning OF
the trees, and cordial greetings could
make them. Miss Clara has peculiar

the first teachers in Wood County, if
she does not already occupy that posi-
