SEEING GHosTs.-There is a curious
case related of man who was a well
known character and man of sense,
where it was said he used to see a
number Of people in the room with
him Now he himself has described
the whole Of the phenomenon, and all
the adiuncts to it. He said that after
taking cup of tea or coffee, or SO on,
they came into his room in great num-
bers, and as he got better and less
nervous, he has only seen the arms or
legs of the persons, without seeing
any other part of them. Now this is
an irregular action of the retina of the
eye. A gentleman, sitting in his Ii
brary one day, reading or writing, on
turning round his head, saw sitting in
chair woman in a red cloak. And
he said, GLOW came you in here, good
woman?" The woman said nothing
"What is the meaning of your being
here, woman?" No answer was made.
"You have no right to be here; go
out of the room" She took no notice
of him. He got up and rang the bell
for the servant The servant came
in. Turn this woman out" "What
woman, sir?' "Why, the woman in
the red cloak" "There's no woman,
nor any red cloak, sir" "Well, go
and fetch the doctor for me. Tell him
l am i'll, and wish to speak with him."
The man, however, was not to be
frightened by this, because he knew
it was delusion of his sight.

LANGUAGE OF FINGER RINGs.-1n case
of gentleman wishing to marry
literally in the market with his heart
he wears a plain or chased gold
ring upon the first finger of the left
or hearty hand.
When success attends his suit, and
he is actually engaged, the ring passes
to the second finger. After marriage
it passes to the third finger.
If, however, the gent desires to tell
the fair ones that he not only is not
"in the market" but he does not de-
sign to marry at all, he wears the
signet upon his little finger, and all
ladies may understand that he is out
of their reach.
With the fair sex the claws of the
rings are:
A plain or chased ring on the little
finger of the right hand implies mot
engaged" or in palmer words, ready
for proposals, sealed or otherwise"
When engaged, the ring passes to
the "first finger of the left hand"
When married the third finger re-
ceives it.
If the fair one proposes to defy all
siege to her heart, she places the
rings ON her first and fourth finger
one on each, like two charms to keep
away the tempter. 1t is somewhat
singular that this disposition of rings
is rare.-P Passaic { n. j. Item.

A Word or So.

Mr.. EDITOR.-The result of the election
held on Saturday last, for Delegates to the
State Convention, to be convened at Dover,
on the 18th inst, appears to have been an
unsatisfactoryo one, to a few persons at least,
who claim to be Democrats, and especially
so, to one solitary correspondent of the
Gazette, In its issue of Tuesday last, who
writes over the signature of "a Life Long
Democrat" Now, sir, the italicized words
midway in this would be considered Life
Long Democrats production, shows, as we
verify believe, the true spirit of the objec-
tion to John O'Byrne, or any other John or
George, who may have had the misfortune
to have the prefix o or Nc to his name. 1t
is fact that is as plain as the nose on your
face that such fellows would make use of
the adopted citizen, much as the Rcpubli-
cans do the negroes, he would bestow on
them some petty office, now and then, but
never allow them to think of attaining to
any real post of honor. I'll venture to say
right here, that If this "Life Long Demo-
crat," was a voter twenty or twenty-five
years ago, that he was a Grandady, Or past
Grand Warden in some KnowDothing club,
in this or some other city. 1t cannot be
denied that there is too much of this feeling
ia the Democratic party, and it's outcropping
has been very plainly seen on more than
one occasion In the past twelve months. 1t
Is disgusting to hear men, protesting to be
Democrats, proclaim during the progress of
the primary elections ifso and so should be
nominated that they would not vote the
ticket. Out upon such Democracy.
Yours, &C., s.

PROFESSOR WYMAN.
Tho Offers He Makes,

We desire to call the especial attention Of
our patrons to the fact that Pref. Wyman is
nightly donating at the Opera House, Build
ing Lots, located adjoining the very beau
,ful town of Hammonton, New Jersey.
The land is on the line Of the Camden and
Atlantic Railroad, only fifty minutes ride
from Philadelphia. Wherever the Prof has
appeared, large and enthusiastic audiences
have universally greeted him, and we say to
our readers this transaction is endorsed by
many OF the leading citizens of our city of
Brotherly Love. An excursion Of some ffty
lot holders visited Hammonton . few weeks
since, and upon their return (without q sin-
gle exeeptien) doubled their original pur-
chases, and one gentleman secured an entire
section of 56 lots.
Many persons cannot understand the
workings of this proposition. 1t must be
borne in mind that corner lots are not given
but only alternate ones, except when i've or
more are purchased, in which eases they arc
donated adjoining
The scheme is not new, the large major
ity of farms in the New England States are
being built Just in this manner. Prof. Wy
man is we'll known to the citizens of VIII
mington, and his name alone is sufficient
guarantee for the correctness of the trans
action. Remember for every ticket pur-
chased deed for building lot 20 by loo
feet is donated. See advertisement.

The Berlin Conference.


BERLIN, June THE ProvinctN Cerrss.
pondex, a semi-official, to-day in reviewing
the recent event at Constantinople says !:
" The Government which In pursuance Of
the Berline conferences, had agreed to Cd
dress suggestions to the Porte, have been
led by the accession of the new Sovereign,
to postpone them, but the ojects of the pow
ers remain the same and under the now
aspect of affairs further understanding
will be had as to their attainment. .The
argument between the power which formed
the basis of the former decisions and tho
present situation In Europe generally, justi-
fy us in our unwavering belief that their
common ends will be attained with the
preservation Of the peace of Europe" Al
luding to the postponement OF the Emperor
Williams visit to Ems, 1t says the Car will
defer his departure about week. 1t "
certain the monarchs will be together at
Ems several days next week.
