THE ghost OF the late bandit and nnr

derer, Tiburc;o Vasquez, haunts the
prison at San Jose. Cal every night at
II O'Clock, sharp. The first sound is
ike the rafting OF a chain, as if
sheckled foot was being raised from the
ground The ghost goes up and down
the corridor, stopping at the cell where
he took his final chew of tobacco, and
rapping. Then is heard in the distance
a sound like the baying of hound.
Neuer, clearer, deadlier far than before,
1T Is now deafening wall ending in shrek
as OF damned spirit cast over the bat
Elements of heaven headlong into hell.
1t is in every respect first-class ghost.

4 Last Thursday night at about12 O'clock,
the house of F. A. Hackett, on east Main
street, just beyond G. B. Church's, was
discovered to be on fire, and in a very
short time was reduced to ashes. Nearly
everything in the house was destroyed,
the property saved will not amount to
$25. Those who were on the ground
first, say the flames were coming out OF
the woodshed, where no fire had been for
months, and. no doubt the building was
set by an incendiary. The same day a
tramp called at the house and was order
ed away by Mr.. Hackett, and we opine
chat the devlish tramp performed the ne
farious work, and thus for triaing spite,
destroyed the home of Mr., Hac6ett, who,
for years has>,worked to make it. pleasant
and comfortable. Oh! that the miserable,
sneaking rascal might6e caught and made

out from memory -.
Give honor TO the fearless band
Who pierced the realm Of night,
Bold forest tanners of the land
Who came and lot In light
TO the village greer, home, Old church bell,
New England,s hallowed ground
And misty hills they babe farewell,
With stout hearts westward bound.
On bold Chenango's banks the smoke
OF settlement uprose.
And axmen felled the pine and oak
Where swift Tioga flows.
The 9enesee with torrent dash
A roaring welcome gave,
And camp fires threw redding fash
On 6usqehanna's wave.
The red man with resentment Yain
Looked on . clearing wide,
For ended was his ancient reign,
His day of savage pride.
100 feeble Tor the sLI1Ie OF arms,
He yielded to HIS doom,
While lawns and cultivated farms
Replaced the w9edfand's gloom.
The wilderness receded fast,
And docks and herds were seen,
Where late the bngle of the blast
Rang, through leafy screen.
/ And at improvements thrilling cry,
Like sisters hand in hand,
Came Art and Fame, to rear on high
Tall spire and temple, grand
Look on these mellow, crumbiing bones,
Where plow upturns the sward,
"a mighty realm no longer OWNS
The red man forsflis lord.
Where lately rocked his long canoe,
| Is heard the clacking MILL
And where his feathered arrow flew,
i Steam wakes whistle shIill.
Then honor to the pioneers,
Though brown their hands with TOLL
Far nobler than the strife Of spears,
Their conflicts with the soil.
Forget not perils, woes and storms,
q Through which they, pressed their way,
As one by one their aged forms,

Lee, jackson and Stuart.

~. Estcn Cooke in Philadelphia Weekly Times.1
The death of the famous cavalryman pro-
duced n deep and painful sensation, in some
degree akin to that produced by the death of
jackson. The Southern people indeed had
become accustomed to couple together the
three great names, Lee, Jackson, and Stuart,
valuing each for his peculiar qualities. No
comparison is intended 10 be made between
these three distinguished soldiers, but il is
interesting to notice how sharply contrasted
they were in character, and how peculiarly
each was fitted for the sphere in which he
moved and his special functions. Lee, the
head and front of the struggle, was the born
commander-in>chief, fitted for the conception
Of great campaigns, ever wide awake, man
of august dignity by nature, calm, suaye,
grave, taking good aud evil fortune with tho
same mposing serenity; in person, ono Of tho
most noble and graceful men of his epoch,
and the finest rider in the Southern army in
character, simple, pure, patient, binding to
himself both the love and respect of men
Jackson was the infantry leader, the right
arm" TO execute what Lee conceived in per
son not graceful, in manner SILENT reserved,
and often abrupt; cautious IN council, but
rapid and terrible in execution. going to battle
with muttered prayers on his lips. leaving all
to Providence. but striking with all the power
of his arm to do his own part, and in many
ways resembling the Ironsides Of Cromwell.
Stuart, on the contrary, was the cavalier, ess
sentialIy belonging to tho class of men who
followed the fortunes OF Charles I.-ardent,
impetuous, brimming over with the wine of
life and youth, with tho headlong courage OF
a high spirited boy, foud of bright colOrs. of
ripping flags, of martial music, and the clash
of sabres-in all the warp aud wOof his char
acter an embodiment OF tho best traits Of the
English cavalers-not Of their bad traits.
Although his utter carelessncss as to the im>
preston he produced subjected him, to many
calumnies, it is here placed on record. by
one who knew his private life thoroughly
aud was with him day and night for ye,rs.
that he was in morals among Tho purest Of
men-a faithful husband, absolutel y, without
vices of any description, and if not demon
strative in his religious views, an earnest and
exemplary Christian. His love for his wife
was deep and devoted, and on the death Of
his little daughter, Flora, he said to me. with
tears in his eyes, Il shall never get over it."
