Hunting for "a Ghost.
A MYSTERIOUS SHOWER OF STONEs-A WHITE
OBJECT IN 4 GRAVEYARD.


OBJECT IN 4 GRAVEYARD.
NEW YORK. December 1S.-Alleged
ghosts are again exciting the people Of
RoSsyile, ;. |. For several nights a white
object is said TO have been seen gliding
about the place, and showers of stones fall
on Detective Charles +. Rcllings's house
almost nightly Mr.. Relings has made
every effort to solve the mystery, hut with
out success. He at first supposed that the
stones were thrown by some malicious
persons, and night after night, with some
OF his neighbors, all armed with pistols,
he watched, but could not discover any one
in the neighborhood, although a shower OF
stones came at regular intervals. Mr..
FEELINGS says that if it is merely practical
Joke ii is being carried too far, as il is in
Turing his interests in Il pecuniary way.
Constable Hannah, who with his family
occupied the upper part OF Mr.. RellingS'S
house, has moved out. Hannah and his
family were so much annoyed by the stones
falling on the roof that they could not
sleep. On one occasion footsteps were
heard a. OF q person ascending the stairs,
followed bv heavy knocks on the door.
Mr.. Hannah, with pistol in hand, went
nOiSelcssly TO the door and opened il sud-
denly. but no one was there. Since Mr..
Hannah vacated them the rooms have
remained moccupied. Mr.. FEELINGS has
offered liberal reward 10 any per-
son solving the mystery. This las in
duccd many young men in the village to
take an interest in the matter, and, armed
with pistol. and >hot-guns, they scour the
neighborho0d nightly in search OF the
stone-tbrowcrs. The white object gliding
about is said TO have been seen in Il. Luke's
graveyard. in sand lane, near krcischer-
Vile, and in the woods near the basket fac
tory OF John ID. Winant. Twenty-Five
years ago this same object, it is said, was
seen in different parts OF the town, and
caused similar excitement. The women Of
RoSsyille have become terrified, and cannot
be induced to go out alone at night. Pill

ALcSson for virginia.

The State OF Pennsylvania has issued pro-
posals for the purpose Of funding several
million dollars OF its five and six per cent.
loan, issued in 1861, at the rate Of three,
three and half, and four per cent. interest,
to be decided by the Commissioners OF the
Sinking Fund az the the time the proposals
are opened. " II will be remarkable" saysa
Philadelphia journal, ''if the bids for the
new loan donot exceed its amonnttenfold,"
Here is an instance OF the value Of financial
integrity which should not be lost upon our
friends in Virginia. The rulers OF Nir-
GINA politics-especially those known rs
Readju>ters should take this lesson 10
heart. There is no reason why the credit
OF Virginia should not stand as high rs
that OF Pennsylvania. Virginia is rich
state. capable Of limitlcSs progress, with
unusual resources, people intelligent, ac-
tive. and far-secing. The contrast between
Virginia before the money markets OF the
world and Pennsylvania is lesson that
should be studied in every southern state,
and also in our wayward, forlorn, repu-
dating, misguided northwestern Common
wealth OF NlinnesOta.-Ne IOrk HeTdtd.
