THAT GHOST AGAIN.-Some years
ago it was asserted that real ghost
frequented the square on Pitt, between
Duke and Prince streets, and upon sew
eral occasions accosted lonely and be-
lated individuals at the weird hour OF
midnight. 1t is now said that the ghost
has changed its locality and its shadowy
form is seen to fit about near the monu-
ment at the intersection of Washington
and Prince streets. On Saturday night
at the same mystic, ghostly hour it
reared its aerial form on the gate-post in
the moonlight and then disappeared in
the trees in the distance.

A SAD AccIDEsT.-Forrest, the
eleven-year-old son of Mr. George Har-
rison, was the victim of a terrible acct
dent this afternoon, the effects OF
which, it is feared, will prove fatal.
The little fellow had climbed almost to
the top Of one of the tall trees in
front of the old Court House,
on Columbus street, when by
some mishap he fell to the pavement
below, striking his head against the
bricks. When picked up he was found
to be Unconscious with his skull frac-
tured. Drs. Purvis and VIM. and Thos.
Gibson attended the injured boy, whose
condition is critical.
