In my younger days, ghost stories' were the :most popular narratives extant, and the lady or genlleman who could recite the. most thrilling adventure, involving a genuine spiritual visitant, was sure to be the lion or-lioness of the ;evening party he en livened (?) with the dismal details. - The elder audit6rs -never seemed particularly horrified or. terror-sticken,. however imuch gratified they vyere, but the younger mem bers vould drink in e'ery wvord, " supping I full or horrors." After listenivg to orie-of tiese authentic narratives, -ve'used to be ver v reluetant to retire to our dormitories, an. nevr venitured "to.-et ito bed till ve 'had - exained supmeibus lookin clbsets, old winrdrobes, nd inded every no61iemi ebn tlitanightbe supposed to harbdi ghos -6rui'ghoul SFortudate ly. for :tbe. rising generation, tus:intes'rgo nqe-"of fashion, and thogh som ateans-tiraive. atasie have been nade-0 9.th&e Nijfit of Na. ture"-such effortt -have proved deplorable failure. The young people of to day make light of ghosts.. 'The spectres in the incan tation scene of " Der Freyschutz" are re ceived with roars of laughter, and even the statue in Don Giovanni seems "jolly," not withstanding the illusive music of:Mozart. We were about to remark that the age had outgrown superstition, but we remembered the Rochester -knodkings, and concluded to be modestly silent. One evening, many years since, it was a blustering December evening,' the wind howling as it dashed the old buttoniwood limbs in its fury .against the parlor windows of the country. house where a few of us wvere assembled to pass the' winter holidays; we gathered hefore a roaring fire of walnut and oak, which- made everything within doors as cheeryrand comfortable, as all with out. was desolate and dreary. - The window shutters were left unfastened, that the bright . JA, ' ...AA.,- fiah.._ight stream if counterfeits, .anu imtu -- tive where the ghost turned out.in: mne enu to be ro ghost after-. all, but a mere com pound of- flesh and llood like ourselves. Aunt Deborah smiled at our earnestness, and fantalized our inmpatience by some of those little arts,. ivith which the practised' story-teller enhances the value and interest of 'her narrative. She. tapped her silver snuffbox, opened -it deliberately, took a very delicate pinch of the Lundy Foot, shut the box, replaced -it in her pocket, folded her hand before her, looked 'round a minute on the expectant group and then began. I shall despair or imparting to this cold ven and ink record of her story the inimit ble conversational grace with which she embellished it. It made an indelible im pression on my memory, and if I have nev er before repeated it, it was from a lurking fear that-though the old lady assured us it was " not to he found in any book or news paer-it might have found its way into print. However, as twenty years have lasped, and I have never .vet country. Thiough not raining, the air was damp, and the heavy, surcharged -clouds threatened every moment to pour down their contents. But the- Major, thoughsa young man, wvas an old 'cainpaigner; 'and with a warm cloak wrapped about him; and a good horse .under him, would have cared very little for storm and: darkness, had he felt. sure of a good bed .for himself~, and'com fortable quarters for his horse wvhen he had. ridden far enough for the. strength 'of his faithful animal. A good horseman cares as much for the 'comifort of his steed as foi his own 'case. To add to the disegmfort- of the evening, there wvas some chance of. meeting highwaymen; but Major Stanley felt no un easiness on- that score, as, just before. leaving 'his friend's house, he :had examinied- his holster-pistols;" and freshly' primed them. A brush with a highwayman would enhnee the romance of a nig'ht journey. So be jogged along; but mile after mile was passed, and no twinkling light in the distance gave notice of the appearance of 'the. wished for-inn. The Major's horse be gan t6 give unmistakeable evidence of dis tresa-stmbling once or twice; and'recov erng himnself witb-difficulty. At last, a dim light isoddenly' aiit at sa turn of the road. The horse picked up his-edrs, - ad trotted forward with spirisoodi halting'be side a one-story cottage..: The major wvas disappointed, but he rode -up to the door and rapped loudly with the butt of his riding. whip. Trhe summons brought a' sleepy cotter tolthe door. " My good friend," said the Major, " car you tell me how far it is to the next inn I" " Eli! it be about zeven mile, zur," w-as the answer, in the broad Yorkshire dialeet of the district.. " Seven miles !" exclaimed the Major, in a tone of deep disappointment, "anid my horse is already blown ! My good fellow can't you put my horse somewhere, and giv me a bedi I will pay you liberally for your trouble." " Eh ! Goodness zakes !" said the rustic, uI be u -t but a diteher! There be noa plaze to put the nag in, and there - he onIS one room-and one bed'in' the coh" What shall I do?" cried ihe Major,-at his wit's-end, "'ll. tell 'ee, zur," saidthe rusti,. scratch ing his head violently, as if to: -extract his ideas by the .roots.- -" There be -a -voine large. house on the roiai about. a mile vurther on. - It's noa an inn,:but tie colo nel zees company voi theyvon o' tlithing cause he loiks to. zee.coMpan about 'un.

"Mine host" was an old campaigner, and had seen much service during the war of the American Revolutidn, and he was full of interesting anecdotes and. descriptions of adventures. But while Major Stanley was-apparently listening attentively to the narrative of his hospitable entertainer, throwing in the .appropriate ejaculations if surgrise and pleasure at the proper intervals, his. whole.attention was in reality absorbed by a charming girl of twenty, tie- (laughter of the colonel, who graced the. tabli with her presence. Never, lie thought, had he seen so beautiful, so modest and so lady-like a creature; and she, in turn, seemed very favorably impressed with the manly, beauty and frank .manners of their militai'y guest. At length she retired. .The colonel-, who wa a three bottle iman and hd found a litener to-his heai-t, was somewhat inclined to prolong iho session into the sinall'houts of the mom nins: hut findnlie that- his~guest --ree'n cha~iber." --A e'onforta ble-bea in vited to repiose; -a cheerful fire was blarzing on the hearth, - and everything. was cosey and quiet. . The Major looked -rpund hbim with a smile of satisfaction. - " I am deeply indebfed'to you,'Colonel," said he, " for affording mesuch comfortable: quart'ers. I shall sleep like a top.?' " I am-afraid not," answered the colomiel, shaking his head gravely. " I never -knew .a guest of ininen to passed a quiet night-in~ the -Green Chamber." -- " I shall prove an excej~tion,' sai d the Major, smiling. -"-But I mbake one remark;" headded seriousl y. -" It is ill sporting wvith: the feelings -Of-a soldier; and should any of iour servants -attempt to -play 'trielts upon ime they. will have occasion :to repent it." And he laid his heavy pistol on the light-. stand by his- bedside. - "My servants, Major StanleyP said the old gentleman, with:an air, -of offended dig. ity, "are too well drilled to dare attempt any tricks upon my guests. -" Good night, Major." "-Good.night, Colonel." - The door:closed. >Major-Stanley dJocked it.- Havings dohe so, he took a survey- of the apartment. Beside the door opening into the entry, there was knother loading to some other room. TIh'ere was no lock upon this second door, but . heavy table placed across, completely barricaded it. "I am safe," thought the Miajor, " unless there .is a storming party of 'ghosts to at. tack me in my -fastness. I think I- shall sleep .well." He threw hiaefito an arm-chair be fore the fire, aiid watchng the, glowing em bers, amused himselt wth ~uilding eastles in the air arnd musing on tie attraction of the fair Julia, - Iis host's .daughter. .He was far enough from thinking of spectral visitants, when a very - ih noise strapskQu his ear. .Glaneimg, im.te drection of k iniier door, ha thiougdt ho saw the he~avy, table glide b ai ds frm itsplfice.
