Nr yacini Telegrupl -nicker’s jjliost is the talk of the town. Crowds go do\yn every night ■uni on Saturday and Sunday nights tliero were at least one or two hun dred people, who did not seem to care for the rain or cold, and kept on the grounds until morning. Some were rewarded With one or more sights of the apparition, and many were not. Since the appearance of the spectre, ghost, or whatever it may be, many exaggerated stories have lie,.a put in circulation, and ghost stories innumerable have arisen to the surface. We hear them on every hand, and while some savor of the impossibilities, some have a margin of reason. The negro ele ment is especially exercised over the ghostly discovery, and there have been hut very few who have ventured on the ghost grounds at night, and you may depend upon it, their lingers were on the triggers of their pistols. Among the stories that have cropped out of the recent ghost is one to the effect that on Thursday night an engineer on the Macon A ISrnnswick railroad placed his hand on the railing of his engine, which was standing near the compress, when.his hand was touched by a ghostly hand as if to make him re lease his hold. lie says the touch was like that of a hand encased in a kid glove. Another is that one of the factory operatives, while passing through the city bridge last Friday night was lightly touched on the shoulder. On looking around she saw some thing like a veiled woman dart across the bridge. Almost frozen with fear she watched—though she couldn’t speak—the figure as it glided out of the bridge and went in the direction of Ellis’ factory. On Saturday night the rain w.as falling and the ground was very wet and sloppy, but in spite of this crowds went down to the factory at all hours of the iffght, and some remained until 4 o’clock Sunday morning. The apparition was plainly seen on that night by Messrs.lt. II. Burden, Itohind B. Hall, Will and John Dunwody, Frank Henson and many others. It seems to take varied shapes and rarely appears exactly the same to any two pel sons. To Air. Frank llrantly, who saw it several times on Friday night, it had the appear ance first of a Sister of Mercy, and afterward of a child. To Lieuten ant Wylie it seemed a bride. To Mr. Burden it was square in shape at first and was afterward round. Mr. Tucker, the watchman, sees it in one form only that of a child. It seems to have no particular locality, and is seen all over the ground, from the park fence to the ('entral railroad embankment and from the river to the Dempsey lot. It glides across the road, moves along the park fence, springs up from behind lumber piles and is seen around the office and shops. It appears first one place and than another. The most singular part of the mysterious visitor is that it is hot seen by every person. For instance • out of a group of say twenty, per haps ten of them will see it distinct ly ami endeavor to point it out to the others who will fall to see even the semblance of a ghost. This dis pels any idea uf magic lantern busi ness, because if one can see it why not the others? The theories as to '"'hat it is are numerous. Some say k is gases or vapors arising from the ground, which is swampy; some s «y h is a kind of fox-fire upon whichtlio light shines; some say it ls a reflection from either the moon, electric light or the lamp on the bridge watchman’s house; and some s# y that it is a white piece of cloth manipulated by mischievious per- s,, ns. But if it were all or any of these why cannot all see it? Two men can stand together, with their (i yes in exactly the same direction nnd one may see it and the other cannot. 1 he spectre has no special hours °f appearing. It can he seen any time after dark, at intervals vary- '"8 from five minutes to half an ^ ,UI '. Is seen when the electric lights are out, on dark or bright "'glits, and Mr. Tucker says it is mure distinct on the brightest moonlight night. L'e watchman at the factory "hom Mr. Tucker succeeded re- 'itfiied Ids place because the ghost troubled him so, and Simon, an old "egro man who lives in one of Clay’s 'oases adjoining the factory, says ' Wlls s emi at tlds place over a year •dm. He also says that a light used "be seen In the high railroad cm- '“"knieiit that could never ho '"''minted for, The embankment, s “.vs, Imd the appearance of huv . Jk a hole in it and the light seen Our reporter saw Mr. ltoland B. Ilall yesterday and asked him if lie had seen the ghost. “Yes, I saw what is said to be Tucker’s ghost.” “Did any one else see it at the same time that you did ?” “Yes; at least a dozen reliable young men.” “Will you describe wliat you saw ?” “Yes, with pleasure, as it appear ed to me. Some ten or fifteen gen tlemen were sitting together lioping to lie rewarded for our tramp with a sight of the apparition. Suddenly one exclaimed, ‘there it is!” Look ing in the direction indicated I saw at a distance of about forty feet, near a pile of lumber, a subdued light (yet brighter than a reflection from a lamp) spherical in shape and about a foot and a half in diam eter. It rose gradually to the height of about four feet, when its form changed. It gradually rose and lengthened until it was.about three or four feet high. Rising slightly above the lumber it glided slowly along in our direction. As it neared us it narrowed, and when in about ten feet vanished. When it first started to move toward us it had the appearance of the shadowy form of a child of ten or twelve years of age, of a spare build. At first it appeared like fire light, hut upon assuming the upright shape, the ap pearance closely resembled rising steam, yet there was sufficient lum inosity for it to be .clearly distin guished on this dark and rainy night. The time it was visible was about ten seconds.” “What is your theory of its ap pearance?” “I have several, yet upon investi gation none seem tenable. First, reflection it cannot be; as the rail road embankment is so higlffas to shut off all light from the city, and it appeared behind a pile of lumber twelve feet high, where no reflection could reach. Second, the idea of its being a magic lantern manipulated by some fun-loving individual ex plodes when we remember that none have ever come nearer to it than ten feet. Were this the ease it would he impossible for the party to always close his lantern just at this same point and avoid throwing the figure unawares into a crowd.— Third, the most plausible theory is that it is a vapor rising from the earth of the nature of the will-o’-the- wisp, or in common parlance jack- o’-lantern. IIow to explain it I do not know, yet, to contradict this, is the fact that this light approaches the beholder, while the will-o’-the- wisp always recedes as you advance and advances as you retire. And furthermore is always visible to all who may he observing it, while this is frequently seen by quite a num ber and at the same time an equal number at their side fail to see it.— The latter is, after all, the most rational explanation to my mind and I am not prepared to accept any other theory. Still, I shall look anxiously for a practical solu tion of it by some of the distinguish ed scientists of our city. Until then it will remain as now, a mysterious object and known as ‘Tucker’s glios(t.’ ” Ltwt night a number of citizens went down to the factory, among them some scientific gentlemen.— When the nights become fair and pleasant, we Warn of several ladies who will go dowii to see the ghostly visitor. There is no likelihood of its going away, though the sensa tion may die in a few days. But at present it Is the topic of flip break fast, dinner and supper table and the street. The school teachers are talking to their pupils about it, and it is talked of everywhese. Tucker’s ghost has taken rank among the few big sensations that has stirred Macon from centre to circumference. For The Citizen. SKCKXTHK. Look, love of mini’, across tlie son, The waves do kiss the sunlit lea- nut fickle grow, and soon are free From all terrene embraces. From star-decked skies tlic shadows steal, And human hearts the touch doth feel, For human loves do oil anneal Kiss'd too rude by twilight dews. In dreams of rest the heart oft lies, In sweet, perfume the flower dies, And nothing’s true beneath the skies— For even love Is wayward. Hut, love of mine, can time erase The darling image of thy face? Can worlds e’er snatch from my cnihrnco Sweet power to dream of thee? The sands may melt upon the shore, The ocean loose Its mighty roar, And planets sink to rise no more, llut, love, I can't forget thee! I to the grave erstwhile shall go, And flowers 'round my tomb will grow, Hut by their bloom ye then shall know, That I do still recall thee. The world will don the sober gray, The sun will shine with softer ray, And bleak, Indeed, will be the day When moni'ry loses thee. Then strike the word from out the tongue!

The following extract which we clip from the Savannah News may he of interest to our business men. The law is the same in reference to cigar boxes, and all packages or casks which have revenue stamps upon them: Several persons in this city in the past few days, have got themselves into trouble by handling empty beer kegs on which were unean- celed revenue stamps. They ship ped these kegs to Northern brewe ries. It is said the practice is quite general here to ship empty whisky barrels, on which the stamps have not been destroyed to the turpen tine distileries. The law against Such practice, and against any transportation of empty barrels and kegs on which there are uncanceled stamps, is so old that it is astonish ing that there is any body of intel ligence who is unfamiliar with it. The law requires the stamp to he destroyed on a cask or package at the time the spirits are drawn off, and all casks and packages on which the stamps are not oblitera ted are liable to seizure. Every railroad company or person who transports or receives for transpor tation an empty cask or package, which is marked with uncanceled stamps, is liable to a penalty of Won, for each package or cask transport ed or received for transportation, and every boat, railroad car, dray, wagon, or other vehicle, and all horses or other animals used in transporting such casks or packa ges, are liable to forfeiture to the United States. Every person who fails to destroy the stamps at the time of emptying the cask or pack age, or knowingly transports such cask or package, on which there are uncanceled stamps, or assists in such transportation, is guilty of a felony, and is liable to a fine of not less than $500 nor more than .$10,000, and to imprisonment from one to live years. The law is very severe, persons who have anything to do with empty beer and whisky casks who do not know the law, will do well to make themselves acquaint ed with it. A ltlnHjtliPviier Puraljzoil. Erik, Pa., Nov. 18.—The people of McKean township, a few miles from this city, are in a commotion over the case of James Thompson, who was instantly deprived of all sensation, and taken to the county almshouse. Thompson’s has been a strange career, and though little is known concerning his life, it is currently believed that a record of what he has passed through would constitute a volume of thrill ing interest. Of American parentage, he was horn near Naples, Italy, the son of a sailor distinguished for gallant deeds in the second war with Great Britain. When eleven years old, he ran away from home, determin ed to adopt a sailor’s life, concealed himself in the hold of a ship about to weigh anchor, and was carried out to sea. Since then he lias been on every ocean, end experienced scores of hairbreadths escapes, on two occa sions being wounded in engage ments with pirates in Chinese wa ters. Twelve years ago, Thompson came to Erie county, married and settled in a lonely place in the woods of McKean, living so peculiar a life that the simple country peo ple regarded him with awe, his ejac ulations, the cullings of many lan guages, and stern demeanor impel ling them to believe him to he a foreigner seeking seclusion from the world—a man having urgent reasons for wishing liis identity to remain unknown. When excited, his wrath was terrible, and few dared to remain in earshot while curses and implications that made even the most hardened McKean man shudder when being pronounc ed. Yesterday morning a trivial in cident threw him into a passion, and words more blasphemous than ever heard before, rolled from his fluent tongue, as he strode about fairly dancing in his excess of pas sion. Suddenly the impious phra ses ceased, and Thompson fell as though stricken by a thunderbolt, lying unable to move a muscle.— Sight was also destroyed. Super stitious and devout people look up on the calamity as a heavenly pun ishment, a fearful warning for oth ers to avoid sinning as Thompson had done. Physicians, however, regard it as an unusual case of pa ralysis, brought on by a life time of exposure and reckless living, accel erated by the intense excitement he was laboring under. A Tree Within a Tree. A Itclir «f the l.eiHt Cause. Tramps. Explain.•<! at East. Knoxville, (Tenn.,) Tribune Convicts in excavating a tunnel in the Western Mountains, on the Duck town branch of the Western Jlortli Carolina railroad, 22 miles west of Webster, broke through a shell rock, and found themselves In un immense cavern. It is asserted that the cave luis the beauty of the famous Luray caverns, with much greater size. Not a great distance from the cave is Bald Mountain, from whence strange noises and rumblings proceed at times, whose origin has been so much discussed. The cause of these noises is simply the falling of enormous masses of limestone rock from the roof of the mighty cavern. We hope this set tles the question, and we’ll never hear the Bald Mountain mentioned again. The newly discovered euve is about 40 miles from Knoxville, and only tv tow miles from the pro posed Rabun Gap Hailioad. Oranges urd selling for 30 cents per 100 at Tampa, Florida. Last Wednesday evening two tramps stopped at the residence of Mr. B. B. Saunders, section master of the S. F. & W. railroad, near Kate, and asked for something to oat. At the time Air. Saunders was from home, and no one was at the house except his wife and daughter. Airs. Saunders told the tramps that there was nothing cooked. One of them gave her the lie, and even went so far as to curse and abuse her, having evidently seen that she was unprotected.— They then came on to Blackshear, and as soon as Air. Saunders was informed of their conduct lie fol lowed them here. Air. Browning, our city marshal, found them asleep in an old out house in Mr. Strick land’s field, on Session’s hill, and lodged them in jail. Thursday they were brought before Justice Riggins, and one of them, the one who did the cursing and abusing, was hound over in a bond of $200 for his appearance at the next term of the Superior Court. It is unnec essary for us to express the indig nation and contempt which all good people feel for such wretches as this one, and we sincerely hope he may be made to suffer the severest pen alty of the law for Ills Ironic uu rime There are large numbers of these vagabonds now travelling up and down th(‘ railroads, and no man knows when his home Is safe from their defiling presence. The shot gun argument is u very good one in such eases, and we hope to hear of some one who has the pluck to use it and successfully.— Newn. Lincoln, N. C., Press. We have in this office a blood stained piece of silk, faded and full of bullet holes, which once formed a part of the cross upon the fiag of Company E, which was taken from the county by Captain John F, Hill. The fiag was presented to the com pany by the ladies of Richmond, Va., in. 1861. It was first carried in to the seven days fight below Rich mond, by Carpenter, of this county, who was killed under it.— It was immediately taken up by J. D. Ornnvnd, of Rowan county, who carried it until next day, when lie, too, was killed. Henry Eaton, of tins county, seized it as Ormand fell, and carried it through two battles. Seme man, whoso name we have failed to learn, hut who was from Montgomery county, car ried it for nearly a year, until lie was killed at the battle of Chancel lors ville. As lie fell D. llovis, of this county, caught the flag, and in fifteen minutes ho was killed. It was then taken from Ids Impels by the gallant hoy soldier, K it tier, of Rowan, who carried it several months, when he fell dead upon his dear colors at Spotsylvania C. If., and the dark spots on the remnant we have are blood stains from the heart of this lion-hearted hoy. llis boyish corpse was tenderly lifted from the fiag by Corporal Wood, who scarcely raised it, when he, too, fell dead. Captain Ilalsey, of Ru therford, then seized the colors, and ill five minutes was a corpse. Air. A. C. Hartzoge, of this county, pick ed up the fiag, and bore it until the surrender at Appomattox. As his company was drawn up to surren der, Air. Hartzoge reached up and tore otf this tattered, blood-stained, bullet-scarred remnant of the flag, which on the day it was surrender ed had 181 bullet holes In It. Of tin* 275 men who composed Com pany E, Mr. Hartzoge was tin* only man who was never wounded, and was In every fight save one. IIonoHilulo Letter. The Rev. W. W. Williams,of Ber lin township, Wayne county, has in his possession a number of stones bearing inscriptions and dates which indicate that they were used in some mysterious transaction nearly 200 years ago. Air. Williams says he found them in Michigan. He lived in Petoskey, Emmett county, in that State, in 1870, and in November of that year, as lie was felling a hemlock tree on his farm, on cutting into the trunk about a foot lie was surprised to see hark reappear among the chips. After cutting down the tree, lie split it open and found the perfect trunk of a smaller tree embedded in its centre. In the hark of this impris oned tree were cut the figure of a triangle and the date 1084. Mr. Williams cut out a section of the tree containing the mysterious design. In the fall of 1877 lie was digging potatoes in the field where the tree had been felled. Eight inches below the surface his hoe came in contact with a stone. He took out the stone, which was ir regular and peculiar in shape.— Brushing the dirt from it, he was surprised to see the figures 1084 cut deep on one side of it. Immediate ly beneath where the stone had lain Mr. Williams found two others, one fiat and the other resembling a sheep’s head in size and form. On the flat stone were carved 1084 and the representation of a triangle similar to the one cut in the hem lock tree. A mortise had been cut through the other stone and fitted into it, and cemented fast was still another stone. This was removed by Atr. Williams, who found upon it the figures 1081 in three different places, and the same mysterious triangle. The finder of these stones, believ ing that they were connected in some way with a treasure hidden on the premises, made further in vestigations. He removed the stump of the tree he had cut down the year * before, and, digging a short distance in the earth beneath it, came upon a very large stone, in shape resembling a ham. The in evitable triangle and 1084 and the following inscription were carved on one side of it: “195 feet north to small trees on other side of tri angle, 150 feet to three stones east.” On the opposite side of this large stone were a number of hierogly phics, the meaning of which lias not been deciphered, and this de claration: “West is dead. He died Nov. 18, 1004. This box be longs to Penn.” Air. Williams lost no time in look ing for the trees mentioned on the stone ham. As 200 years had pass ed away since the rather ambiguous direction was given, the trees had naturally ceased to he small, and he therefore went in search of large trees. He found the decayed stump of one, and promptly proceeded to dig it up. Embedded in one of its roots he found what had evidently been originally a perfectly round stone, hilt half of it had been split off, leaving a ragged surface. On the spherical side of this stone, standing out in hold relief, were the figures 1084 and the triangle. A long search failed to reveal any thing further. The mystery was greatly deepened by the finding, a year later, of the missing half of the round stone on the shore of Lake Michigan, 200 miles from Air. Wil liams’ residence. Air. Williams has all of the stones to show, lie himself tells the story of their dis covery. - John D. Ashton, Attorn e y -at- L a w WAYNKSBOHO, GA. Jun28'^by E. F.
