MISOS XMXM JA^N^ST
A STRANGE_ADVENTUBE
HY WALiTBIt BYKNE.
Up to the 1st of April, 1865, I was
devoid of all superstition whatever.
Understand me-superstition, not
fear. There arc certain things from
which I have carefully abstained;
owing to a smart appreciation of the
consequences therefrom aceruing. As
a hoy, for instance, I divided my ?
schoolfellows into two classes: first,
those who could thrash me; second, |
those who couldn't. I never sauced |
the former. I never liked orchard
robbing; I preferred purchasing the I
fruit at a reduced rate from those who j
did. On breaking-up eve, when pil?
low-fights raged in the bed-rooms, I
placed my countenance likewise be?
neath the clothes. lu fact, I in?
stinctively avoided everything that
had the remotest chance of bringing
me blows. The consequence was I
passed through my curriculum with?
out any experience of the cane, and 1
each succeeding half obtained a prize,
whose glory amply compensated for
its being the only one I got-the re- j
ward of good conduct.
Without entering into any further
details-details which might possibly
be thought contemptible by those
who do not understand my peculiar !
constitution-I would only add that
this timidity, this fear of things
actual, has accompanied mo through
life. But as I before observed, with
regard to things imaginary I have
ever been bold as brass, and this by
reason of sheer infidelity. I perfectly
remember the day on which doubts
of "Aladdin and Iiis Lamp" entered
my yet unbreeched understanding. I
can trace minutely thc progress of
thought from this point to that on
which I shocked tho nursery by pro?
claiming my entire unbelief in its
classics, from "Jack the Giant Killer"
down to "Puss in Boots." Since
then tales of the wondrous and the
wild have been my favorite provoca?
tives of mirth. On a dull night, for
iustanceT sitting up by myself and
depressed in spirits, I wouldn't give
a downright real ghost story for the
best thing in "Joe Miller," or jhe
most side-spUtting facetiae of the
Ftimily Herald. I have strolled com?
fortably through church-yards at the
hour "when graves give up their !
dead," and never saw anything j
whiter than an owl. I have slept |
luxuriously in a chamber across !
whoso threshold not one of the family
would have stepped for love or money.
I don't believe in ghosts.
That is, I didn't-till the 1st of
April, 185S. On the 1st of April,
1858, I went down to Shingletown a
sceptic and a scoffer* on tho 2d of
April, 1858. I returned from Shingle?
town a sadder but a wiser man.
Shingletown is a falsehood; there is
nothing of a town about it. A cleaner,
snugger little hamlet, on a wilder,
rockier coast, cannot be found in our
sea-girt-isle. A pretty wide bay gives I
shelter from the storms of the Ger- j
man Ocean, and terminates in a steep |
valley running up into the liMls. A
single street of thatched cottages
stretches about half a mile up the
valley-and this is Shingletown.
I had never been in Shingletown
before, and need not now enlarge on
the business which took me there
then. Suffice it to say that the coach
running on the coast road deposited
me at the door of the Jolly Trawlers
at half-past nine a. m., and cove?
nanted to take me up again at six p.
in. I had thus determined to stay in
Shingletown nine and a half hours
but ?homme propote, ?fcc,, ?fcc.
Mr. Watts was not at home; Mr. j
Wutts had left word with Mrs. Wutts
that he would not bc at home till to-?i
morrow.
Now, I do not like the country-I i
rather hate it. One can knock about
for a week in a provincial town if the i
theatre is open, the cricket ground
good, and the society sufficiently I
snobbish to render it amusing to an j
on-looker.
But Shingletown! ugh! A whole
day to be passed in Shingletown-a j
whole night in the Jolly Trawlers! I
mentally wished sore ill to Mr. Wutts.
It was very clear, however, that all
the ill-wishing in the world wouldn't
bring Mr. Wutts back in timo for me
to catch the six coach. It was palpa?
ble, too, that the further and more j
unpleasant the locality to which my
angry feelings consigned him, the less 1
chance was there of Mr. Watts com?
ing back at all. I had two day i ?ind
a night before me in the wilderness of
Shingletown-how to spend them?

. JL against despotism for four years o

ti ty of the Constitution. ? patriotism
sufficiently broad to embrace both sections
has been its ouly guide, and it n fc-rs now
with honest pride to its n.rd to ?how i hat
! it na? not turned to the right or the left
! under all tho viole nee c i arl it i arv power.
I True to its principles as THE NEWS ha*
been through tho reign of terror, it ehal
I longea public coniideiice in its honest} a:..!
j independence for the future.
Thc; political transition cf the -presen;
I day opens to THE NEWS a u< w and wider
field of usefi?ness. Standing icu. ;>.. ?1
j always has, on the inviolability cif the Con
j stitution, according to tin interpretation of
. tin' strict constructionists, it presents a
rallying,ground for all, in both section?,
j who arc friends of a generous conservatism.
As a true and tried exponent of Sectional
, amity, it occupies a position which makes i:
the fitting mediator in holding up to the
party of order, in both sections, interests
I and principles that gave breadth ami vi?
tality to their alliance. As au interjec?
tional agent, devoted to freedom of elec?
tion, to trial by jury, to the sanctity "f thc
babeas corpus, ami opposed now, as n.r
four years of terror it has been, to tho cen?
tralization that dares to trample on the
rights of States. North or South, THE
NEWS places itself as a candidate fur sup?
port before tho great body of this once free
people.
Tlie circumstances of tlc- moment make
the dissemination of the principles of Tin:
NEWS a duty of individual patriotism.
Every man who concurs in its doctrine
must, if he entertain a true sense of free?
dom, do so in no spirit of indifference, but,
rather with the earnestness of a high trust.
Justified, nay bound, in his love of libertv,
todo so,the proprietor places the canvass Le
makes hero of the public generally in thc;
bands (j* those men who give him thc ap?
proval of their consciences as his individual
agents. Every reader of THE NEWS cannot -
avoid thc conviction of duty whjph is hero
pointed out as thc ground of the request,
that he urges its claims for a wider support
upon all ot his friends and neighbors who
give their earnest sympathies to thc cau.-e
of ''strict construction," intersectional con?
ciliation, and all thc rights of the citizens
under the system set up by our father^ of
liberty regulated by law. The proprietor
of TUE NEWS calls, therefore, upon good
and true Conservatives throughout thc?
country, to discharge, to their convictions
of political right at this great crisis in the
country's fortunes, thc duty of giving to
tho influence of his paper, daily, semi?
weekly or Weekly, the wider power for good
which it seeks herc through thc service of
its individual supporters.
