1 I CONTINUED. J At first, sho could extort no ex , pianation, but by und by, the giri de ' olnrod she saw an old gout loman sit? ting in an arm, chair in tho corner, who beckoned to her, and she fancied in a hurry, for his tea, ?.What did be look like?" asked Hrs*. Cul vcr ton. '.Ho was thin and tall," said the firl-fhis hair was white and Very ong, and I noticed that ono of his knees-looked stiff, and n thick gold headed cane besido him." "Uncle Hiram 1" cried Mrs. Cul verton: "''nrinrj my word, you've de? scribed my great grand uncle, who has been dead for twenty years." Jessie began to cry. "I shall never koep a place," she said. "You will turn rae away now." "See as many ghosts as you please," she said, "as long as you don't bring them before my eyes," and went back to her tea without say? ing a word to any of the family on the Bil bj cot, although she was ex? tremely mystified. Surely, if the girl had never seen her uncle Hiram-which was not Ukely, considering time-she must have seen something in the ghost line, and if, indeed, it were uncle Hiram's spirit, why should he not come to aid them in their trouble? Mrs. dulverton had always had a little superstition .hidden in her soul, and sh? soon began to believe this version of the case. The next morning she went into the kitchen, and shutting the door, said to Jessie: "My good girl, I do not intend to dismiss yon, so be quite frank with me. I do not believe that these forms are optical illusions. I feel sure that they are actual spirits. What do you think?" "I think as you do, ma'am," said the girl. "Our folks have always seen ghosts, and grand-father had the second eight for ten years before he died." "If you should see the old gentle? man you told me of, again," said Mrs. dulverton, "be sure and tell me. I'll keep the story from the young folks, and Mr. Gulverton would only laugh at it; but you described my dear old grand-uncle, and my belief is, you saw him." The girl promised to mention any? thing that might happen, to her mis? tress; and from that day an inter? change of glances between them, and a subsequent conference in the kit? chen, was of regular occurrence. The girl saw ber apparition seated on the sofa in the parlor, seated at the dinner table, walking in the gar? den, and so life-like was it, that she found it impossible to refrain from passing plates and cups and saucers to it, to the infinite amazement of people who saw only empty air in the same spot. By and by she invariably spoke of her ghost as the old gentleman, and -was no moro affected by his presence than by that of a living being. If it were an optical illusion, it was the most singular on record LOONCliUDgD Di OUn NEXT. ] Charleston Advertisements. .500 CASES TUST RECEIVED, in addition to our ! ?J former stock, FIVE HUNDRED CASES ot BOOTS and H H (JES, direct from the manufactories, which we offer lor sale at tho lawest market prices.
