l think it was hot Scotch that the test
was made with and it acted like an exor-
clsm. To see whether l was awake or
dreaming l applied the test to myself too.
We repeated the test. In less than an
hour l was entirely satisfied, not only that
l was awake, but that the apparition was
one OF flesh and blood, and the one hun
dred and sixty pounds remnant of nv poor
Tom S. whom l left mortally wounded and
dying in the cabin of the steamer on the
night of the battle of Chickasaw Bayou.
1 was duly informed, while we were en-
ploying the hot Scotch test, that Tom did
not die on that night, or any other that
he recovered in time, was discharged, went
home, and married the young woman who
struck with remorse by the letter and
Toms tragic end-had Tilted her last fan
Gee, and had resolved to die an old maid as
an expiation of her sins.
And this is the only veritaUle ghost ever
met in my life; and, moreover, this is the
only true, genuine, real ghost story that
ever was written and published.

CHRESTITL4S GEMS.

The first song ever composed in England
was Christmas carol in Anglo Norman
French.
The first tragedy in the language. and
the oldest of the comedies, were brought
out as part of the Christmas festivities of
the period.
The Saviour had not where to lay His
head, but His scriptures are translated into
thousand languages, and the grandest
structures of the modern world are the
home of His church, and the temple of His
worship,
Christmas is each year more generally
observed in New England, where it was
once prescribed by law, and before another
generation it is probable that most of the
religious denominations here will observe
the anniversary by public religious exer-
cises
a very remarkable frost was one that
began on Christmas day, 1865, and lasted
till the 18th of January, when there Was
one days thaw, followed by another week
OF excessively sharp frost. The continu-
ance of intense cold for nearly a month
ton and vegetation.
The beautiful spirit of beuifcence has
endeared Christmas day to the poor and
the young. What joyous time it brings
to the heart of childhood And how pleas
ant it must be to truly generous nature
to participate in ths usual felicities of the
holiday season, and to observe the exulta-
ton of the young at the tokens of affection
they receive
There is very curious custom Observed
by the Greek church throughout Russia.
1t is the baptism at Christmas of the pa
tron saint Each village and each city has
its particular patron. In the larger towns
the ceremony is performed by bishop.
a cross is cut in the ice, and the patron
saint, represented by a carved wooden ef-
hgy, is baptised.
The coldest day ever known in London
was a Christmas day. just seventy-four
years ago. The occurrence is not fresh in
the memory of many of us. The register
then was sixteen degrees below zero, and
though that was beaten only ten years ago
in many parts of England, it has not been
equalled in the metropolis, which is in by
no means the coolest latitude of the Island
The Christian nations of the world honor
the anniversary of the Saviour's birth with
solemn worship and with social joy; with
the impressive pomp of religious ceremo-
mails; with poetry, music, eloquenee, and
spiritual communion. In this beautiful
festiyal-the grandest and the gladdest of
sons of men, they celebrate the spiritual
of mankind.
Even in rude times, Christmas has had
the power to mitigate the ferocities of war.
The siege of Orleans, in 1923, the English
historian says the solemnIties and festivi-
ties of Christmas gave a short interval Of
repose. The English lords requested of the
French commanders that they might have
a night of minstrelsy with tTEmpets and
clsrions. This was granted, and the lsor-

CHRISTlT4S MORNING.
BY CHARLES DICKENS.

Twas the morning of Christmas
And Benny and Ned
Had captured their stockings,
And gone back to bed
And there in their night-gowns,
As soon as twas light,
They emptied their treasures
And O, what a sight.
Such stockings long stockings!
(Mamma's, 1 suppose,)
Filled full to the openings,
And crammed to the toes.
''Isn't Santa Tlaus dood, Ned 2"
Cried Benny, "Dus' look
And see what he's div me;
y drate picture book"
"And me :" exclaimed Neddy;
Mines dif7rent from yourn
'Tis chuck full of stories,
And long words to learn
But then you know, Benny,
I'm older than you,
And need older presents,
AS Sanity Claus knew"
"O-o-or' - shouted Benny,
"a big Noah's Ark
An lots of wild animals
And here is tart
Wiv little horse in it;
He looks like our Ace,
For he's tinder spotted,
And dot white face"
''I never :" said Neddy,
whats this, do you think?
a bag full of marbles,
l guess, by the chink.
Besides a great buzz top,
All red, white and blue.
And a two-bladed jack-knife.
Have you got one, too?"
"Dess not, answered Benny,
but I've dot a cat;
And sheep vat says bahia!
Few pinch him like that.
And then there is somefin
Tied up with q strin'-
o, Neddy, tits tandy!
Dus put oore hand in.
Dye feel what lot It's? d?
L fought I'd have some
For ma said should have,
When Santa Tlaus tum."
MERRY Christmas, my darliugs.
Why not up before ?''
And mamma with baby,
Appeared at the door.

CHRISTINAS GHOST.
= RemInIseencc of the Siege of Vicks
burg.

On Christmas eve, in 1862, was borne
on the Mississippi steamer, Continental,
bound down the river for Vicksburg, then,
as is well known, in possession of the con-
federates. The Continental formed por-
tion of the fleet which carried Gen. Sher-
mans army, and which was destined to
attack Vicksburg from the direction of the
GazOO river, while, as was intended, Gen.
Grant was to march down overland, and
cooperate by an attack from the land side
to the north of the confederates. strong
hold.
We were nearing Vicksburg on Christ
mas eve, and all knew that fight, and
desperate one, was imminent. In view of
this approaching danger, it was resolved
to make the most of the opportunity, and
so a lively season was inaugurated The
boat carried General Frederick Steel and
staff and anybody who knew Steel, Pad
dock, poor Sokalski, Charley Scammon,
and the other members of that crowd, in
Guiding the humble writer hereof, will un-

to result.
Jollity reigned. Steele's pale face light
ed up with a roseate glow, and he was the
gayest of the gay among the jolly crowd
that warmed under the genial influence of
steamipg 'commissary,' until the sur
rounding darkness rang with volleys of
laughter and their chorus of roaring voices
Toasts were drunk to the girls we left be-
hind us ; ''the first who dies in view of
the coming battle, had many steaming
bumper in advance of his heroic sacrifice,
and each contributed his share of anecdote
with his favorite song.
While the revelry was at its height,
which was towards morning, an orderly
touched me on the shoulder and said that
a soldier wished to speak to me in the for
ward cabin. l accompanied him, and found
myself moment after standing over a
cavalryman, who was lying on the floor on
a bed of blankets, with his head pillowed
on saddle.
''That is the man., said my guide
'sDid you wish to speak with me-"
asked.
Yes he said, feebly, as he, with some
difficulty, rose mp so as to rest on his ell
bows. ''You do not remember me ~ he
continued.
"No, don't" I replied, as Igazcd into
his bearded face.

A GOOD thing is told of a preacher who

As the forms of the paper were being put
