High up among the
mountains of ft most desolate portion of
Pennsylvania are the ruins of three
small villages, Now Bergen, Oleona and
New Norway. Thirty years ago these
were thriving settlements, founded and
governed by the famous violinist Ole
BulL Ole Bull purchased a tract of
land forty miles square, and brought
over 600 or 600 of his countrymen to
make a settlement in that region, which
is not unlike Norway, with its rocky
Bteeps, fertile valleys, and evergreen
foliage.
A short distance from New Bergen is
Oleona, which was to bo tlie capital of
the new territory that Ole Bull intended
to govern, and near which Iris residence,
known as the Castle, was built. The vil¬
lage was placed ou a small plateau. A
fair sized stream, fed by mountain
springs, always furnished an abundance
of pure water, and, although surrounded
by hills, the plateau on which the vil¬
lage stood is large enough for a good
sized town. But the town was never
could built, and hold even the little thrifty village
not its own after ite founder
and patron neglected it. Gradually it
was deserted, the tenants moving away
one after another, until now there is lit¬
tle left exoept three or four houses, the
hotel, and one store.
The hotel is kept by a pleasant, intel¬
ligent, and thrifty-looklng Norwegian,
who says it was built by Ole Bull, who
at one time had a music hull attached to
it, where he treated the settlers to such
musio as he never gave elsewhere. The
hall has lieen torn down for firewixxl,
«nd the admirers of the great musician,
whose strains of melody seem to have
been wasted in a spot like that, can only
see tbe foundations and wisli it had been
spare ed as a relic. The hotel is a rum
bling two-story frame building with
small rooms, It was either built one
room at a time, or else without any
definite plan, as it is remarkable for its
careless arrangement. The windows are
of all sizes, the doors of all widths, aud
the ceilings vary in height from seven to
ton feet; but there ia, after all, a touch
of originality about it that commands
respect.
Not far from the hotel, botween the
store and tlie stream, is the borne of a
wealthy Norwegian who came to this
country to stay. Ho settled among the
lumbermen, after the discontented
grumblers had gono away, and has suc¬
ceeded in making his fortune in a wilder¬
ness where many men could not live six
months. He is the owner of the village
store, which is filled with un attractive
stock of cheap goods such as lumber¬
men and sportsmen are likely to need.
His home is pleasant and tidy, and
everything about his p lace tells of thrift
mid enterprise. He <u 06 s not lielieve the
story which has been told by certain
patriotic Norsemen practiced to the effect that
fraud was upon Ole Bull when
he bought the lands in Potter county,

Bul! tendered in i payment for tlie prop
erty certain drafts upon bankers who
either failed in business or would not
honor the draffs, and for this reason the
owners of the laud took back their prop¬
erty. This is not the usual version of
the story of the failure of tho colony.
One thing is aertoin, as the records of
Potter county show, the sottlerfl did not
got good title to their property, and this
led eventually lo the disbandment of the
colonists, but whether it was the fault of
Ole Bull or of some other person re¬
mains an unsettled question.
Two miles below Oleona, after a drive
up over the cool, green mountains,
through wooded parks where the tjjteus

atis aud sumac, we reach New Norway,
the last of the three settlements. From
here Ole Bull’s Oustle can be seen on an
eminence midway between New Norway
»ud Oleona. From his castle windows
tho mild ruler of this little realm could
see his mou at work in the valley below.
If we except one small house, it is safe
to say that New Norway is entirely cloareii gone,

A Chllri Dispatched on u Errand with no

“Now be quick, Mary, and come
right back; you know what will come if
you don’t.”
These words, spoken in no very pleas¬
ant tone, feil upon my ear as I passed
through the hall to ray study. They
were addressed by Betsy, the maid, to a
sprightly Imt not very thoughful child
of seven summers, whom she was send¬
ing with a message to a farm-house some
quarter of a mile distant. Mary set out
it once, and taking a seat a moment
after near a window which overlooked
the road, my eye caught the form of. the
child bounding away on her the errand.
There is hardly anything in world
like the feeling with which a father re¬
gards a bright, affectionate daughter. 1

messenger, For the first few moments
the memory of the charge which she hail
received seemed to give energy to the
child's purpose, and she skipped along
as if determined to obey to the letter.
But in passing the door of a neighbor
something attracted her attention. 8he
paused, then ran into the yard, and it
was some minutes before she reap¬
peared. At all events it was soon pretty
clear that Mary had quite forgotten the
impressive injunction child!" thought of the I, house¬
keeper. “Ah, the “thou as I

into the room and went away.
This introduction to me, then, was one
of the afore-threatened consequences of
disobedience.
“Mary,” aaid I, “what does this
mean ?”
Mary raised her eyes timidly to mine,
but said nothing. Her countenance
wore an expression of mingled shame,
grief and perplexity.

Eea«rlinN» Oee«rrr»M« nee Believed
to llnTe Hastened the Death ot a well
fo-do Pariner—Stones Fulling la Church.
A letter from Jordan, N. T., to Rich¬ the
Sun says : For twenty-eight years
ard Stevens owned a large farm about
two miles from this village. He was
much respected by his neighbors, and
was a good example to the thrifty cen¬
tral New York farmer. He had a
family, consisting of his wife, Tuesday, three
daughters, and six sous. On
after an illness of about one week, he
died of pneumonia, and his death is be¬
lieved to have been hastened by exciting
and remarkable events in his house,
which have astounded the country peo¬
ple and puzzled many from neighboring
villages who have witnessed them.
A week ago last Friday, while the
household affairs were going on in the
usual way, the family were startled by
the clatter of several stones which fell
on the kitchen floor. The doors and
windows were closed, and there seemed
to lie no place where the stones could
have entered the room. On the follow¬
ing night, when the girls had pulled off
their shoes and were preparing to go to
bed, one of the shoes suddenly ascended
to the ceiling and fell to the floor. The
young women were frightened, and,
running ont of the room, called their
brothers, who searched the room, but
found nothing to explain had the singular bed
affair. After the girls gone to
the noise of the falling shoe was re¬
peated, and Mr. Stevens's sons being
again called, sat np all night to detect
the source of tbe manifestations.
The next night a stone fell, apparently
from the ceiling, when the girls were re¬
tiring. From that time ou the fall of
stoues in all parts of the house was fre¬
quent. Mr. Stevens was annoyed, bis
nerves were unstrung, and his disease
was complicated mysterious by the excitement. at
Stories of occurrences
the Stevens farm house spread through
the country, and people began to come
from all quarters to gratify their curi¬
osity. One day stones fell all the time,
and at night more than one hundred and
fifty were picked up. does believe in
A gentleman who not
spiritualism, or supernatural manifesta¬ hotel
tions, while staying at our village
one night expressed doubt about the
reality of such phenomena. He accepted
an invitation from one of Mr. Stevens’s
sons, who was present, to accompany him
home and see for himself. He tells of
what happened as follows:
“When I arrived they took me into
the kitchen, where I should think there
were about a dozen people, all waiting
for the falling of the stones, and all very
much excited.
‘‘Charles Stevens, a son of Richard
Stevens, and myself went into the par¬
lor, and one of Mr. Stevens’s daughters,
who is about 12 years old, went with us.
Wo were sitting around the stove, aud
Mr. Stevens's son was relating some of
the incidents of the affair. Miss Stevens
was near us, on the other side of the
stove. I could see her plainly. Sud¬
denly a stone fell within two feet of
where I was sitting. The girl jumped,
and I jumped. The stone seemed to fall
from the ceiling and came with force, as
if it had fallen from a great height. The
doors of the room were closed, and no
one was in ihe room excepting us three.
I watched both of my companions, aud
[ am sure that neither of them threw
the stone. I could have seen them
plainly if they had.
“This oocurred about 7 p. m. About
7:30 another stone fell, seemingly with¬
out any more cause than the first. No
more stones fell during the evening, and
about 10 o’clock I went to bed. Noth¬
ing occurred during the night. The
next morning, while I was standing near
the stove in the kitchen, about breakfast
time, two more stones fell.
"I cannot give family any explanation of the
matter. If the are playing any
■ tricks, they certainly go through their
parts well; but l am very certain that
they do not. know any more about this
affair than I do. The youngest daugh¬
ter, Celia, looks like a medium. The
day before I was there about forty stones
fell.”
On Sunday two of the Stevens girls
went to the Presbyterian church, nud
while they stood, fell joining in the singing,
three stones at their feet. The
preacher picked them np after the
-ermon. The family are very indiguaut
at the Rev. Mr. Benedict, pastor of the
Baptist Church, who, after visiting the
house, reported that the stones were cast
by Lucille, one of the daughters. He
inserted that he saw her throw one of
them in a forward direction, but the girl lias
denies that she did so, or that she

THE TALCE OP SLATES.
Claim that the Government Is Made Ida*
ble lor Klava Property in Texas.
The St. Louis Globe asserts that par¬
es in Texas will soon begin a suit in
the Court of Claims, at Washington, to
reoover the value of slaves emancipated
during the late war. The action will be
based chiefly on certain clauses of the
State Constitution which were approved
aud endorsed by Congress at the time of
the annexation of Texas, and which, it
is claimed, make the United States
Government liable for slave property.
Tlie plaintiff in the case was a pro¬
nounced Union man during the war, and
the proposed action is endorsed and will
be pushed by some of the best lawyers
of Texas.
It is alleged that Texas was admitted
into the Union under peculiar and dif
ferent circumstances from any other
State. Negotiations for the annexation
were begun during President Tyler's
administration, and joint resolutions
providing for annexation passed Con¬
gress and were approved by These the resolu¬ Presi¬
dent ou March 1, 1845.
tions contained conditions and guaran¬
tees, the most significant of which, in
regard to the present case, is as follows:
* ‘ ‘Beotiok 3. New States of conven¬
ient size, not exceeding four in number,
in addition to the said State of Texas,
and having sufficient population, may
hereafter, by the consent of said State,
be formed out of the territory thereof,
which shall be entitled to admission
under the provisions of the Federal
Constitution, and such States as may be
formed out of that portion of said terri¬
tory lying south of thirty-nine degrees
thirty minutes north of the latitude
commonly known as the Missouri Com¬
promise line shall be admitted into the
Union, with or without asking slavery, admission as the
people of each State
may desire.”
Texans took advantage of this, and, in
framing a State Constitution under which
they would be willing to come into the
Union, they stretched the slavery the guraa
tee to a limit which lawyers of pres¬
ent day think makes the United States
Government responsible for the loss of
slave pr< perty. At the next Congress
of the United States this Constitution
was submitted and provoked a long aud
bitter struggle, and it is noted that
the clauses in it upon which this litiga¬
tion will be based were then pointed out
as not only objectionable, but Congress danger¬
ous, and virtually making
guarantee slave property.
