Crockery, Pottery, Glassware and Butcher Knives. Ears of Corn, Smoothing Irons and Books Jumping Around the Floor. The Old Family Clock and Red-Hot Brickbats. Five Hundred People on the Ground. Full and Complete Particulars. On Saturday afternoon It will be remembered we published a brief paragraph stating that strange and supernatural manifestations had taken place at a house at No. t>, Macon and Brunswick Railroad. Passengers coming up on the train were greatly excited about it and represented that great excitement prevailed in that immediate neighborhood as indeed as far distant as the reports had reached. Determined to find out the exact facts in regard to the matter, wc de tailed a special reporter to the scene of opera tions and will now lay before our readers the FULL PARTICULARS as detailed to us by him. Taking the Brunswick train Saturday night, in company with Mr. Mason and Mr. Camp bell of Macon, who were also going down for the same purpose, our reporter Mr. Peter Lin denstmth, arrived at the point of destination a little after 4 o’clock, Sunday morning. NO. 6—OR SURRENCY. Getting off the train they foand o cue in the little place as yet up, bht going to the house of Mr. A. P. Surrency, they were ad mitted to a vacant room the fire in which had uearly died out. We may as well remark here that the town, or Depot of Surrency consists only of a station house, one or two places of basinets and thu residence of the gentleman from which it takes its name. It is situated in Appling county, 126 miles from Macon and about 60 from Bruns wick. Mr. Surrency la a gentleman well-to-do in tho world and is universally regarded as one of the most honorable citizens of the county, and it would seem that his house would be the last one ghosts would select in which to play mischief. THE FIRST BRICK. Mr. Lindenstrutli finding the fire nearly out ■went to the wood pile to get something to make it up. While returning he heard a heavy thud upon the floor of another room, as if some thing heavy had fallen. Thinking some mem ber of the family had arisen, he paid no more attention to it. But subsequent events con vinced him that that was the first brick thrown by the ghosts or whatever agency is at work on the premises, as no member of the family had as yet got up. WHAT MR. SURRENCT SATS. Soon after daylight Mr. Surrency came into the room, and after giving his guests a hearty welcome, proceeded to tell from the beginning what had taken place up to that time. On Friday evening, a short while before dark, the family were greatly alarmed by sticka of wood flying into the house and falling about the floor from directions they could tell nothing about, and without any human agency they could see or find out. The wood would fall before being seen, and what made the mystery still more mysterious, the room into which the wood was falling had all its doors and windows closed. This was in the front room. Soon after dark they stopped falling and was succeded by brickbats which fell at short intervals thioughout the night in every room in the house. Mr. Surrency, his wifa, two grown daughters, Mr. Roberts a clerk, and a Baptist minister by the name of Blitch were present, and witli the exception of the minis ter who got upon his horse and left, they all remained awake the whole night. Notwith standing the windows and doors were tightly cloaed and n* opening left in any portion of the house, these brickbats continued to fall, butalthough sometimes just missing not one struck any person. BOTTLES AND GLASS TAKE A HAND. Soon after the bricks commenced fulling bot tles, vases, and glassware generally commenc ed jumping from their usual places, lulling and breaking. Mr. Surrency seeing the destruc tion going on directed a negro man to take four bottles containing kerosene oil out of the house and place them in the yard. No sooner had he set them down when one flew hack, fell in the middle of the room, scattering the oil in every direction. The whole family saw this. It seemed to come down from the ceil ing overhead, and indeed everything else fall ing did so perpendicularly—tliat is to say came straight down from above. These strange antics continued with acarcoly one minutes’ interruption until daylight Satur day morning, when they ceased, leaving the house nearly bankrupt in crockery and glass ware and a large quantity of brickbats and bil lets of wood around the floor. That afternoon, or on Saturday, 19th, they commenced again pretty much in the same manner and doing about what had taken place the night previously. The family, which hau now been joined by many neighbors, watched every nook and corner of the house, to detet and if possible, to unravel the mystery. But so quickly would pitchers, tumblers, books and other articles jump from their positiois and dash to the floor the eye could not follow, and broken fragments were the first things seen, except in one instance, and that was a pan of water and some books; they were seen to start. Chairs, shoes and clothing, were tumbled about the house, as if the hand of a veritable witch or unseen devil was present. But the greatest mystery and moat inexplicable inci dent of this day was the escape of a lot of ordi nary clo’hea hooka from a locked bureau draw er. They also fell ou the floor, tho drawer re maining tightly closed, as usuul. Nothing else of special note occurred to-day. All got quiet at B>j o’clock Saturday night. THB OMIUTIONS OF SUNDAY. Ae stated above our apecial reporter arrived before daybreak and heard the story of Mr. Surrency ae above related. So soon ae he got through with It he stepped up to the OLD FAMILY CLOCK, and was about relating bow rapidly the hands had traveled around the dial when the ghosta were about, on the previous day. All eyes were turned to It and much to their astonish rneut the hands commenced running around at the rate of about five hours a minute. It was a3O hour weight clock, and after seeing it run at this rate for a short while, our.reporter who is a watchmakor by profession employed at the store of Mr. J. H. Otto on Fourth si reet, deter mined to at least solve this mystery as it was directly in his liue. He stopped tlie cloek, carefully examined the machinery ai .1 found it not only in perfect order but nothing whatever unusual inside or out. He could not for the life of him see tho slightest thing wreng about it. THE MAGNET THBOHT. It has been suggested that there may be a lsrge magnet about or under the. bouse, but magnets do not attract wooden eubstancee and besides, while the cloek was running at its rapid rate Mr. L. had his watch in his pocket, which kept on in its usual way and was not in the least affected. He set the clock right, when it continued to keep correct time up to the time lie left. A XED HOT KBICKBAT. Nothing else unusual occurred until 17niiu utes before 12 o’clock, when the performances reopened by a pair of scissors Jumping from the table to the floor. At that time Mr. Liudcn struth was sitting in a chair when, with out the slightest premonition a large brick bat fell with great force right beside him breaking in iwo. He immediately picked up a piece of it nnd handed it to Mason and both found it hot. Then taking up the other riece he tried two or three times to break it by throwing it on the floor, but failed. lie then laid this second half on the sill of a window in tho room inlending to bring it home. Resum ing his seat near the front stoop, he was again startled by the piece he had placed on the window falling at his feet and once more break ing into two pieces. He did not pick it up again. At 13 o’clock, a smoothing iron jumped from the Are place about six feet into the room. It was replaced and again jumped out. He no ticed that the iron was also hot but this may have been heated at the fire. A SHOWIER OF CORN. At about this time dinner was announced, when the family and many guests walked out to the table. Soon after being seated an ear of corn, apparently from the ceiling overhead, fell between Mr. James Campbell, of Macon, and Mrs. Surrency; striking the floor with great force it broke in two, scattering the grains all around the room. Later in the day another ear of corn fell in another room, striking near Mrs. Bums, a northern lady, who at the time had an infant In her arms. Soon after this whilst Mr. D. M. McGaulloy, Allen Walls, Robsrt K. Prestall, C. C Eason, John M. Walls, J. W. Roberts and Daniel Carter of that neighborhood, and Campbell, Lindenstruth and Mason, were standing in the front room, a chamber glass was smashed into fifty pieces in the centre of the room. They were at the time intently watching everything visible in the room, but none saw this until after the vessel was broken. THB EXCITEMENT —EXTRA TRAIN. So rapidly had the news spread, and so great was the excitement, the Macon and Brunswick Railroad dispatched an extra train on Sunday. It arrived at Surrency about three o'clock in the afternoon, with seventy-five people on board. But the ghosts, spirits, or whatever else they might be called, did not choose to give them any manifestations, and the train left in about n hour, taking most of them back. A few re mained, however, determined to see iuto the matter. There were at least three or four hun dred persons on the ground during Sunday, and up to the time our reporter left fully live hun dred had visited the place. OTHER SIGNS AND WONDERS. While all these things were going on in the house, the kitchen department was by no means idle. Butcher knives, pots, skillets and crockery ware were falling around loosa to the terror and horror of the cook. Another mysterious thing occurred on the first or second day. Littlu piles of sugar to tally unlike anything of the kind then used by the family were found upon the floors of the residence. In one of these a few pins and a steel pen were found. There were various other incidents of this totally incomprehensi ble mystery related to and seen by our report er, but enough have already been given. WHAT IS it ’ No one who lias as yet visited the place can give any rational theory as to the agency which produces these strange sights. Mr. currency is a plain, old fashioned Georgia gentleman and is greatly annoyed and disgusted with the wliolo proceedings. lie peremptorily refused any compensation from any one of the two or three hundred persons who have eaten at his table. If they are produced by magnets, they must be of s different kind from any ever known. We must leave the question to someone else for solution. At the time our Macon parly left people were coming in from all directions, and we presume the excitement continued to day unabated. Cutting Afprat—A couple of young men— we mean boys—got into a little scrimmage Saturday night, and one of them not slightly cut. The case was brought up before a magistrate tills morning. Personal. —The following named gentle men hare been drawn aa jurors for the United States Court at Savannah. W. T. Morgan, Samuel H. Singleton and F. L. Groce. Took it Again. —Our old friend Judge Knott is in luck. He received the premium for the best bole of long staple upland cotton at the Atlanta Fair. He Hkar’n It.—'While waiting for the cars at Dawson, last night, several negroes were around the depot anxious for the steam “in gine” to come along. One of them yelled out, “Listen 1 I jes heur’n her whoop at Gray’s Station an’ date’ only five miles from hcah, an’ yon jest know don’t took dat steam hiler long to step fire miles.” Mack Brothers— These gentlemen and they are gentlemen in every sense of the word—have a few lines to which we call the special attention of all of our readers who are in the habit of purchas ing such articles as they keep on sale. We take great pleasure in recommending this house. We know it to be all that it claims. <♦♦ Declined. —W. C. Smith Esq., a colored Democrat made a speech at Clinton last Satur day to his people. A Radical negro named Joe Trippe was to have replied to it, but after hearing the logical and commonsenae jeech of Smith, got into his buggy *nd left. Smith was too much for him, and be is doing the Demo cracy a vast deal of good if be ia a colored man. See his appoint mmuts in another col umn. In Limbo.—' There appeared before his Honor, the Mayor, this morning, a suspicious negro, who gave his name as Henry Lewis. * He has a little game nhieli gull* the unsuspecting,and it is something like the following: He has a num ber of photographs, some of them with a prise written on the back, and others blank, lie offers a draw for a half dollar, and if the victim W lucky enough drew n marked photograph, he draw* a watch. The negro had In his pos session a number of silver and bras* watches which he valued at S3 apiece. It Is said he hus a partner In the business, nnd one of our most expert policemen lias an eye on him. It is strongly suspected that Henry belongs to the class of gentry who have been fingering the pockets of visitor* at the State Fair at Atlauta, and will bo kept In Umbo until he can proTe himself innocent. The police are on the scent, and they are not the boys to let game slip through tlielr hands. Young Drunkards. — Is thorea more deplo rable sight Ilian that of a boy—one that has been brought ‘‘in tho way |lie should go ” as far ns the exertions and influeneo of a kind mother father extend—on the streets of a city drunk 1 Is there any thing that will break a mothers heart quicker or lessen her steps to the grave?

The Great Dry Goods Uouse of 8. Waxelbaum and Brother.— This mammoth Dry Goods House is truly one of the greatest in’ all the Southern country. We doubt if there arc many which are more extensive on the North American continent outside of New York and Philadelphia, and even in those cities there are not many carrying heavier stocks or doing a larger trade. Occupying the centre of Triangular Block— running through from Second street to Cot ton Avenue, and from cellar to roof, there arc five grand divisions to the establishment. Tile cellars or ground rooms are used for packing and unpacking goods for all depart ments and for the storage of Domestics. The right hand floor above is the chief whole sale department, and here we find a ship load of Prints, Domestics, Alpaccas of all colors, Janes, Blcachings, Shirtings, Stripes, Checks, Ginghams, Fancy Dress Goods, Red and White Flannels, Opera Flannels, Tickings, Brown Coods, Corsets, Linscys, Poplins, and so on, running through the entire catalogue. On the left is the general Retail Room, and a busy scene it always presents, morning, noon and night. It would be much easier to tell what is not in there than what is. It contains among other tilings the largest stock of silks in Georgia—some of them running ns high as £ 100 per pattern. Oar ladies can find anything there from an inch of ribbon to a cashmere shawl. The two floors above are set apart fur ready made clothing, boots, shoes, hats, shawls, hosiery, gloves, linens, shirts, balmoral skirts, cloaks, blankets, quills and notions ad infini tum. But it is useless to call every article by name, it would take tip half the space in our paper. Dealers must go and seefor themselves. A su perficial glance makes one think there is enough on hand to supply the whole trade of Macon for months to come, and yet so great is the trade of the house, it is necessary to send off new orders for fresh supplies almost every day in the week. Scarcely a steamer leaves New York for Savannah without having con signments for “S. W. it 8., Macon.” The Senior requests us to make the positive statement as a fact that they #ll at New York price*. We found the house this morning full of country merchants and citizens, and every clerk jnst as busy us he could tie; and no wonder, for such a stock as that will attract people to it the dullest day in the week, and at this season no one wishing to purchase will go by it. A large capital, industry, the most scrupu lous honor, and a long scries of years devoted to the business, lias placed this house in the front rand of Dry Goods Dealers in Georgia. It is known far and wide as such and will continue to be for a long time to come. oct9-8w Carlos Inn Florida Oranges large and sweet. No more blowing about your Ferreotypes.
