PINE GROVE, Pa, April 17.-An aged man

little hotel in valley near this place. Al
the foot OF the mountain live many collierE
with their wives and children. Almost
every evening 1t has been the custom oi
these people to assemble in the little tav-
ern and pass the time in imbibing copious
idraughts Of whisky and brandy. Here,
with their wives and daughters, it has been
the habit Of the grimy miners to meet on
Saturday nights and indulge in weird and
fantastic dances, iniuriated in their motions
by the influence Of the fiery liquids. These
debauches it was the usual custom 10 con.
tinue far into Sunday morning. AL
Not far from the tavern there is small
church in which, during last winter, re-
vival meetings were held, and many in
habitants OF the valley turned from their
worldly pursuits and devoted their atten.
ton to their spiritual welfare. Impressed
by the earnest exhortations OF devout
clergymen, the worldlings joined the mem.
bersbip OF the church, and forsook the
tavern and Its hilarious methods. Many
Of these people were customers OF the land.

HoRRIRLE pLAspIIHNY.

HORRIBLE BLAsPIiRNY.
Last night large assembly Of men and
women gathered there to hold a mock re.
vival. With the rude sound Of clinkine
glasses and deep blasphemy the meeting was
organized. Clarence Tellming, a young
man with sharp features and deep bass
voice, volunteered to act as parson. He
led his unruly congregation in q hymn,
howl he ordered that bench should be
placed in front OF the table behind which
he stood and in grandiloquent terms ex-
horted all who felt moved by restless
spirit to step forward. Five or six men and
women knelt down at the bench, and, with
loud groans and impious phrases, initiated
the mourners at the little church's revival.
Then, one by one, they arose and besought
the leader Of the sacrilegious performance
to accept them as focks'oi his fold. At this
stage Of the cruel work, the sged taven-
keeper, shaking with the weight Of his
many years, held upa demijohn OF brandy,
calling Out: "Here Is the holy wine; par
take Of the sacrament"
- sAhk bAflLt NJ bVubT.
A cold rush Of air surged through the
hot room as the door Of the den was
opened. With noiseless footsteps stranger
entered. With one laccord the bias
phemous merry.makers fell astonished
back. The figure that stepped across the
clouded room was fable black. His breast,
arms and legs were covered with long,
coarse hair. His eyes, set in deep sockets,
flashed forth red, luminous lustre, and
his lips, parted in Bneer, displayed long
glittering white tusks. Too frightened at
first 10 move, the assembly gszed with
awed eyes upon the spectral figure.
In his hands he held small book,
and in a gentle, insinuating voice,
he made them write therein their
names. In moment wild break was
made and the motley Grove. fell from the
spot. One OF the men who was present
but who did not take any part in the per-
iormance, and who is your correspondents
informant, remained after the others had
fled. He states that the unnatural figure
paced backwards and forwards in the mar.
row confines Of the room, and then, empty.
ing the contents OF the brandy demijohn
down bis throat, stepped to the middle Of
the room, and with demonical laugh, de-
materialzed and vanished away.
So unlikely seems the truth Of thisstate-
ment and the appearance Of the apparition,
that some OF the other persons who were
present when the spectral figure appeared
have been interviewed tonight, and, al
though the statements are contradictory in
some minor details, all those who have
been seen agree in the most important
particnlars. .t#4

Years ran on after the explosion of
the internal machine and the strange
accompanying circumstances which
tended to make tho occurrence more
remarkable in the eyes of Bonaparte.
To the Consulate succeeded the En-
pfc. and victory after victory marked
the career Of the great Corsican. At
length the hour Of change came. Allied
Europe poured its troops into France,
and comp llad the Emperor to lay down
the scepter which had been SO long
shaken in terror Sscr half of the civil
lied world The Isle Of Elim became
for few DAYS the most remarkable
spot on the globe. and finally the re-
snscitated empire fell to pieces anew on
the field of Waterloo.
Bonamrte was about to quit France.
The moment had come for him to set
foot in the bark which was to convey
him to the English vessel. Friends who
had followed the fallen chief to the very
last were standing 10y to give him final
adieu. He waived his hand to those
around, and = smile was on the lip which
had given the farewell kiss to the inn
perial eagle. At this instant woman
broke through the band that stood he
fore Napoleon. She was in the prime
of woman's life; not girl, yet young
enough to return unimpaired that beau
ty for which she had been remarkable
among a crowd of beauties. Her fea-
lures were full of anxiety and sadness,
adding interest to her appearance even
at such moment.
"Sire! Sire!" said she, presenting !
paper hurriedly; read read!"
Tho Emperor took the paper present.
ed to him. He shook his head and
held up the paper to his eyes. After
pernsing its contents he took ii between
his hands and tore it to pieces, scatter
ing the fragments in the air.
"Stop, sire!" cried the woman. Fol
low the advice! BE warnedit is Yet
time!"
No." replied Napoleon. And, taking
from his finger a beautiful Oriental ru-
by, valuable souvenir Of his Egyptian
campaigns. lie held it out to the woman
She took it, kneeling, and kissed the
hand which presented it. Turning his
head, Napoleon then stepped into the
| boat which awaited to take him to the
vessel. The vessel took him to the bar

And there he died.
Thus, of the three warnings, two were
useless, because neglected until the dan
ger had occurred, and the third, which,
