A MUTUAL SURPRIsE.-A young married
man of this city, married long enough to be
able proudly to say to his friends and credi-
tors, u am father!' came to the conclusion a
week ago, aided and assisted by his better
half. that their Joint happiness would not be
complete until they had visited the young
n ans parents, and gratified grandpapa and
trandmama with the evidence that there was
lie in the old land yet. The young mans
parents reside in one of the lower coast
parishes. The visit to them was designed
as SUI prise, and the journey was so arranged.
When the city trio arrived at their deStina.
tiOn, and their advent beneath the paternal
porch was announced. a. surprise was the
result, but it as not as designed origlna lly
The old mar, afraiu of the fever peremptorily
refused TO receive his son and heir or the son
and heirs wife, or the wife'S heir. Further
more, he peremptOrily ordered them Off his
premises, and, despite all remOnstrances, they
were compelled to obey his orders. They
passed several hours on the levee, without
shelter, very intentionally, as may be imag-
ined, and returned to the city by the first boat,
deeply chagrined. The infant son and heir,
however, cares nothing for this strange cpl
sOde he takes his rations regularly and sleeps
as soundly as if his grandpa had presented
him with silver pap bowl Young America

Pleasant Ghost Story.
SUPPOSED VISIT OF A DEAD MOTHER TO


CHILD.
A rather queer story is told and can be
youched for by over dozen persons in Spring
neld. Ii appears about three years ago
young man living in Summit got married, and
In Que time his wife gave birth to a child,
which was girl. When the child was about
one year old its mother died. About five
months later the Young wdower became
lonely and took unto himself another wife.
But before doing so he took all of his first
wife clothing, packed it In trunk, locked it
up, and allowed no one to have charge OF the
key but hims, IL. Among the clothing put
away was her wedding shawl and pillow his
wife had made for her first born, and also
SINE toys she had bought just before she
died. Then he brought home wife No 2 who.
IL Is said. made as good mother as the
average step mo- hers DO. Things went on
party at the next neighbors house. So after
alter putting the babe in its little bed, the
father and mother No. went over TO spend
the evening al the party. Shortly after they
t, the party al O. They saw wonderful
ght in tie house as though il might
be n lire. They also heard the cries of the
pare as though in great pain. They went to
the house, and as soon as they reached the
door the light went out and all was as silent
as the grave within. They fastened on to the
what they had seen and heard i'm his house As
they came by. Five or six men, including the
owner OF the house, started TO inves. igate the
report. When they arrived they found every
door and window fast, as they were when the
owner left On going inside everything was
found to be in its place, except the child
which, alter long search, was found up
stairs under the bed on which its mother died
covered up in its mothers wedding shawl a I'd
It's little head resting on the pillow its mother
MADE Tor it, fast asleep. Alongside of 1t lay
us IltIie playthings. On examining the trunk
il was lund to be locked and nothing missing
except the above mentioned articles. Now,
how the things got out of the trunk and the

the case can be aud are vouched for by over
