Mrs. Judson's Ghost.

DR.. Wayland, In hi- Life of Jud-
son. has but feebly portrayed the
scene of Mrs. Judson's funeral. Our
decks were crowded by sailors Of all
nations, and every flag was at half
mast, while a long line of boats took
u r in tow. and on arrival at the
wharf the clergy Of every denomina
nation formed the head of the proce-
sion, which moved through the main
streets, while all the shops were closed.
My recollection- of DR.. Jud,on are of
the most agreeable kind. Deeply affiict-
cd rs Ire Was by his loss, he still main
tanned a cheerful denIeanor, impress
ing ali Of Us with love and veneration
for his character. His life was q con
slant II
But scenes like that of the dcatl and
funeral they had lately witnessed pre-
pared the minds Of the crew for the
access Of superstition. soon after
leaving st. Helena the second mate
called me suddenly in the night. The
Door fellows tom cvinccd that he Was
a- much frightened a. were the sailors,
who, he said had seen "a ghost.
"A ghost, Mr.. Bronson ~ a~kcd.
!" What kind Of u ghost :"
Mrs. Judson'-, sir; We IAN AL see
it In the foretop.'
"Pshaw.'
Captain, do come on deck, do, and
you will see it for yourself,' replied
Mr.. Bronson.
Well, as had never seen ii ghost, |
complied with his request, and walking
int the waist, where the watch were
gathered in stupefied a~nlaZcnIent,
they pointed their trembling fingers to
the foretop, whispering in hushtd
voices: There she i, -ir-look at
her.
Yes, there she W;tS-a perfect figure
of Il woman in Il white dress, with
outstretched arms and u CHASTITY face.
! will confess that no little astnni-h-
mcnt was combined with my incre-
dulity. | had been awaked from II
sound sleep to behold this visitation
with half-opened eyes. But in a mo
ment | saw the cause of the singular
deception.
" Boys | said, who will go with
me into the foretop and speak to herr"
There were brave men among the
crew who would have gone aloft Oh my
order to send down IA royal yard, wen
if they thought the mast might go
over the side, but now none Of them
would stir. At last ! said DO you
think it is my place to go up there and
stow the topgallant studding-sail:' =
Then they understood the meaning
Of the apparition. This sail, which,
when not in use, was dashed against
the f~oretopnlast rigging, had got adritt,
and spreading itself across the foremost
head, had assumed the weird and un-
earthly appearance of Il ghost. 50 this
puzzle for NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. was solved.
Had sent the men below and gone
up and slowed the sail myself, as | was
tempted to do, no ar rulnent could have
convinced them tnat they had not
seen the ghost of Mrs. Jui-on.

And lingen lie out Il nyghtes.

Another old poem has

The hayward bIoweth merry his horne:
IN every fielde ripe is corne.
The custodian of the mill has become
our Milman, Milward and Willard
familiar to u, all rs the given name of
President Fillmore. The old word for
mill was milne" whence We have
Milnes and Miner, which are almost
as familiar to us a. Mills and Miller.
The ancestry of all of them is proved
by such registered forms as John IL
MelIere,' William G.. Melner,"
Robert lie Milleward,' John del
MILF and '"Tholnas attic Milne.' We
eve find u William Wyndmilward'
in an old charter. The Mel
ion, which We meet with occasionally,
is more apt to be a variation of Milne
than to have anything to do with the
fruit which the word suggests. Take
up the old Hundred Rolls and you will
find such entries as John Above

"Adalina Abov e-town," John Be

Lane assume in these ancient records
all OF the following collocations: Gee
ella in the Lane, Emma a la Lane,

Versal custom to insert the enclities

KICKED TO DsATH BY HoRss. On Sun
day last man named Powell, residing eight
miles north of Pendleton, met with his death
in very singular manner. 1t appears
that he was leading three horses to water
and had one fastened to his wrist with a
slip knot; this animal became frightened
and ran away dragging the man fully a
quarter of milo, kicking him so badly that
he was dead when the neighbors who wit
messed the accident went to his assistance.

abled us to keep at least, close to the

have forgotten or thrown aside as STU

down to Spirit-ualism. And sir, there
is not white male inhabitant of Sho

discretion, but whose depth of knowl-
edge of the manly arts and sciences,
would enable him to box or wrestle

afilict the territory bienially at Boise
City. just one whole note in each

glorious to contemplate that, just at
this time, in the dawn Of our future

demi-semi-quiver in the councils of the
territory. We have never heard OF
