By education, the theory of life, and a hor ror of being deemed superstitious or ignorant, a majority of intelligent people are impressed with a total disbelief in ghosts and a species of lofty pity for those who are credulous enough to fear spiritual visitations. On the ether hand, there is a certain instinct, or germ of reason, in every human breast, which— supposing that education never warped it— makes us all acknowledge to our inner selves a feeling of nervous trepidation under circum stances favoring, in the remotest degree, the theory of spectral apparition. Select ten persons at random, and though nine may nev er have seen a ghost, nor even heard of one being seen by an acquaintance, the deliberate assertion of the tenth that he hat seen one, and his unadorned description of the terrifying encounter, will be, at least, partially credited by the nine, though they may endeavor to make it appear otherwise. This proves that there is something in human nature favoring the ghost system, conceal it as we may. Perhaps this little preface may add some what to the interest of an othodox ghost-story which comes to us from Kendal, Canada, and has a tenor quite as romantio and superlative ly horrible as the most supernatural production of Mrs. Radcliffe. It appears, there is looated, at the upper part of a sort of court, conven tionally known as “ Kitty Gibson’s Yard”— and noted for containing the “ Black Horse'’ tavern nearly a century ago—a venerable and shambling wooden house, occupied by a bob bin-turner, named Allinson, his wifo and Ma rian Allan, his sister-in law. The latter, though a young woman, has been bed ridden and almost totally blind for some years past, requiring as much attention as a sick child. On Monday evening of the week before lest ths bobbin-turner and his wife had a gather*- ing of some half-a-dozen friends, for social en joyment ; and the sick girl was left to herself, with a parting injuction to rap with a cane up on the floor if she needed anything. The Al- linsons and their friends were sitting by the fireside in the kitchen, when they were great ly startled by a series of raps, apparently in a room up stairs, each one louder and heavier than the last, and finally ending with a tre mendous shook that mads tbe whole house quiver! Ths terror-stricken listeners could only account for it in one way, though thftt way was anything but satisfactory, or eveu reasonable ; poor Marian must have fallen from her bed in some way, and was knocking for as sistance. As by one impulse the whole party arose, and ascended to the room of the invalid. As they opened the door, they discovered Maii~ an sitting up in bed ; and at their appearance, she uttered a strange cry, and fell baok upon her pillow senseless. The means of reeovery were promptly applied; and upon regaining her reason, the girl told a story substantially as follows: She was endeavoring to compose herself lo sleep when a vivid light flashed instantly through her dim eyes; and, upon turning to ascertain its cause, she was horror-strioken with tbe apparition of a rough-looking, rag ged man, standing so close to the bed that she could feel his chilling breath upon her. For the first time in years, she eould see with per fect clearness; and, although ths candle on the hearth was extinguished by some invisible hand, she beheld the strange man with all the vividness of broad day. Believing the visitor to be a ghost, she asked him three times, in the name of the Holy Trinity, why he fright ened her with his ghostly presence. At the third summons, the spectre answered, in se pulchral tones, that she must follow him to the cellar of the house, where, under a certain mouldy slab, would be found evidences of a crime he was commissioned to reveal. The woman screamed with terror on hearing this command, whereupon the supernatural visit ant faded from her sight! The Allinsons and their friends were greatly horrified by this strange story, and it was some time before they could gather courage enough to proceed to the cellar and satisfy themselves as to whether the ghost had spoken truly.— Finally, however, they went silently thither, pried up the designated slab—which had served in times past for a hearthstone—and beneath it found a quantity of bones. These bouts were immediately submitted to the in spection of a comp f JJ|ht surgeon, and were pronounced human ! Though in a fair state of preservation, they had evidently lain in thsir rude sepulchre for maoy years, and are conjectured to he the only remaining trsoe of n murder supposed to have been committed in the eld hosse nearly half a oeatury ago. They have been placed in a chest, and are daily visited by hundreds sf ths curiously lutlieed. THOMAS & ABBOTT, ATTORNEYS AT LAW, Atlanta. Georgia. Offic* in Smith’. BalMing, 77kitak.il itreat G. 8.
