A GHOSTLY VISITOR.-About ten days ago a gentleman residing on Rutledge avenue, in the neighborhood of Radcliffe street, was awakened by a ringing at his street bell at the dead hour o? midnight. It was no sneaking, healtating pull, but a good, strong jerk, which made the bell Jingle in a manner to reuse the whole household. This postive ringing de? manded aa answer; but lo! when the shiver? ing representative of the household looked out no visitor could be found, and nothing could be heard but the chattering of teeth as the cold, ghostly, morning air rushed In through the half opened door. A malediction upon the heads ol ail mischievous, bell-pulling urchins, followed by an energetic slamming ol the door, concluded the perlormance for the first night. The second night it waa repeated with asimilar result; and the third and fourth nights brought the same discord? ant ringing, and the same result upon going to the street door. The thing continued reg? ularly, and each night, almost without a Bingle Intermission, between the hours of twelve and one o'clock;, the bell was violently ruog and no one could be found at the gate, when it was answered. The mystery began to weigh upon the minds ol the occupants of the house, and the gentleman tried to get the services of a policeman to watch the hou;e fdr the noctur? nal bell-puller. Failing in this, he determined to solve the mystery himself, and armed to the teeth with thot guns, revolvers, swords, &c, and, with a fearful Intent, he took his stand upon his lonely vigil, near an open win? dow, commanding (he bell knob, at point | blank range. Eleven - half-past eleven twelve-a quarter-past twelve came, when the nodding sentinel came to bis feet with a I jump, as the bell Jangled and clattered as if | it were tied to the tall of a mad dog. At the first sound of the bell the watcher presented his double-barrel at the bell-knob, and each particular hair began to stand on end as the ringing progressed violently without anybody being at the bell-knob. The puzzled sentinel was no believer in ghosts, however, and was about to withdraw quietly when a scratching Bouod was heard, and looklog to the right on the fence, he saw a venerable Thomas cat scrambling over the bell wire on his way out of the yard. For a moment our sentinel eyed the animal with vicious thoughts as lt looked back with an innocent expression in the moon? light, but the mystery had been solved, and Thomas was allowed to pursue the even tenor of his way without molestation, to ring the bell again in the samo manner. The regular habits of cats are well known, and about mid? night this wandering animal usually pursued this course to get into the street. He had each night encountered the bell-wire, and either made it a round in his ladder of ascent or scrambled against it, not being able to dis? tinguish the wire in tie dark.

IMPORTANT TO COTTON PLANTERS! -o THE MARY?ND FERTILIZING IND MliWAHG CO. HAVE PREPARED A SPECIAL FERTILIZER ADAPTED TO THE COTTON PLANT, UNDER THE NAME OF O O T T O IV F O O I> ! Which they claim to be of the Highest Grade of Fertilizer sold In the South, and guarantee to equal la results Peruvian Guano, pound for pound, and of more permanent benefit t) the soil. It has been nsed by several hundred Planters in North and Sooth Carolina aid Georgia, for two seasons, with the following results : It increases the crop from 103 to 200 per cent. It resists drought In all cases. The crop ls not affected by rust. It matures the crop thtee to fonr weeks in advance, thus iosnrlng the crop against early frosts, or in the event of a backward season for planting enables the planter to put in lils crop three or four weeks later, even as late as the 1st of Jane, with a certainty of success. It produces a better quality of Cotton. Looking at the low price of Cotton, the Intelligent planter will readily comprehend the.nect salty nf using not hine bat the highest grade of Fertilizers, and of Br.ricily avoiding those whose value has been reduced by adult?rai lon or the use of cheap materials under the pretence of meeting the low price of Cotton.
