At least tlio belief In them still lingers In soino country districts: while- In Southeastern Europo ami Southwestern Asia the cretlenco prevails among whole tribes, and oven nations. Tho most dotailcd vampiro storios belong to tho Danubiau and Greek countries. Tournefort describes a sccno that catno under his personal notlco In Greece. A peasant of Mycono was mur dered lu tho field In tho year 1701. Ho una beena man of quarrelsome Ill-natur ed disposition : Just tho sort of man, ac cording to tho current belief of tho peasantry, to bo haunted by vampires after death. Two days after his burial. it was noised about that ho had been seen to walk in tho night with great haste, overturning people's goods, put ting out their lights, pinching them and playing them strango pranks. Tho rumor was so often repeated that at length Iho priests avowed their belief In Its truth. Masses wcro said in the chan- els, and ceremonies wcro performed, Having for tnelr obloct to drlvo out tho vampiro that Inhabited tho dead man. On tho tenth day after tlio burial, 11 mass was Bald, tho body was disinterred and the heart taken out. Frnnklncenso was.burned to ward oil' infection : but tuo uystantlcis insisted on the smoke of tlio franklncenso being a direct emana tion from tho dead body, a sure sign. according to popular belief, of vamplr- m. Tiioy burned tho heart on tho cea-shoro, tho conventional way of get ting rw or vampires. Posltlvo stato- inenls wont tho round of tho village that tho dead man was still up to all kinds of mischief, beating people In tho night, breaking down doors, unrooting houses, shaking windows. Tho matter became serious. Many of tlio lnhabl tants wero so thoroughly frightened and panic-stricken as to Ilea ; whllo thoso who remained nearly lost solf control. Thoy debated, thoy fasted, tney mado processions through tho vll luge, they sprlnked tho doors or, tho houses with holy tvator, thoy speculated as to whothcr mass had been proncrlv said, and tho heart proporly burned. At length thoy resolved to burn tho body itself; thoy collected pleuty of wood, pilch, ami tar, anil carried out their plan. Tournefort (who had found It necessary to bo cautious as to ex pressing his Incredulity) Btatoa that no moro was heard or tho supposed vara piro. In tho yeor 1725, on tho bordors of Hungary anil Transylvania, a vampiro story arose, which wa rcnowed after wards In a noteworthy way. A peas ivntofMadvclga, nnmed Arnold Paul was crushed lo death by tho fall of a 4, 1871. UOL. wagon load of hay. Thirty days after wards, four persons died, with all tho symptoms (according to popular belief) of their blood having boon sucked by vampires. Bomo of tho neighbors ro mcmbcrcd having heard Arnold soy that ho had often boon tormented by a vampiro; and thoy lumped to tho con clusion that tho passivo vampiro had now become active. This was In ac cordance with a kind of formula or the orem on tho subjoct ; that a man who, when alive, has had his blood sucked by a vampiro, will, after his death, deal with other persons In llko manner. Tho neighbors exhumed Arnold Paul, drovo a stako through tho heart, cut off tho head, and burned Iho body. Tho bodies of tho four persons who had ro- contly died wcro treated in a similar way, to mako surety doubly Buro. Nevertheless even this did not sufllco. In 17,13, sovon years oftcr theso events, toventcen persons died In tho village near about ono tlmo, Tho memory of tho unlucky Arnold recurred to tho villagers ; tho vampiro theory was again appealed to ; ho was believed to havo dealt with thosovontosn as ho had previously dealt with tho four; ond they wcro therefore dlsintered, tho heads cut off, tho hearts staked, tho bodies burned, nnd the ashes dispersed. Ono supposition was that Arnold had vamperlzed somo cattle, that tho sev enteen villagers had caton of tho beef, and had fallen victims in consequence. This nflalr attracted much attention at tho time- Louis tho Fifteenth di rected his ambassador at Vienna to make inquiries in tho matter. Many of tho witnesses attested an oath that tho disinterred bodies wero full of blood, and exhibited few of tho usual symptoins of death; Indications which tho believers In vampires stoutly main tained to bo always present In such cases. This has Induced many physi cians to think that rcnl cases jof catalep sy or trance wcro mlxod up with tho popular belief, and wero supplemented by a large allowance of epidemic fanat icism. Mr. Pashlcy, in his Travels la Crete, states that when ho was at tho town of Askylo, ho asked about tlio vampires or katakhanadhes, ns tho Cretans called them of whoso existence and doings bo had heard many recitals, stoutly corroborated by tho peasantry. Many of tho stories converged towards ono central fact, which Mr. Pashloy believ ed had given origin to them all. On one occasion a man of some note was burled at St. George's Church at Kali kratl, in tho island of Crete An arch or canopy was built over his grave But ho soon afterwards mado his ap- penranco ns a vampiro, haunting tho village, and destroying men and chil dren. A shepherd was ono day tend' lug his sheep and goats near tho church, and on being caught in a shower, went under thoarch and took shelter from tho rain. Ho determined to pass the night there, laid asido his arms, and stretch ed himself on a stono to sleep. In placing his firearms down (gentle shep- 10ms of pastoral poems do not want firearms ; but tho Cretans are not gen tlo shepherds), ho happened to cross them. Now this crossing was always believed to havo tho effect of provent- ng a vampiro from emerging from tho spot whero tho emblem was found. Thereupon occurred a singular debate Tho vampiro roso In tho night, and re quested tho shepherd to rcraovo tho ilrcarms In order that ho might pass, as ho had somo important business to transact. Tho shepherd, Inferring from this request that tho corpso was tho Identical vampiro which had been do- ng so much mUehlef, at first refused his assent ; but on obtaining from tho vampiro a promiso on oatlt that he would not hurt him, tho shepherd moved tho crossed arms, Tho vam piro, thus enabled to rise, went to a distanco of about two miles, and killed i two persons, a man and a woman. On Ids return, tho shepherd taw somo In dication of what had occurred, which caused tho vampiro to threaten him with 11 similar fate If divulged what hu had seen. He couri'geously told all. however. Tho price's and other per sons camo to tlio sput next morning, took up tho corpso (which in day tlmo was as lifeless as any other) and burnt It. Whllo burning, a littlo spot of blood spirted on tlio shepherd's foot, which instantly withered away; but othcrwlso no evil resulted, and tho vampiro was effectually destroyed. This was certainly a very peculiar vam piro story ; for tho coolness with which tho corpso and shepherd carrleelon their conversation under thoarch was unlquo enough. Nevertheless, tho persons who narrated tho affair to Mr. Pashley firm ly believed in Its truth, although slight ly differing In their versions of It. Modern vampires In Western Eu ropo seldom trotiblo socloly, so far as narratives tell ; but across tho Atlantic something of tho kind has occupied public intention within tho limits of tho present generation, in 1S5I The Times gave an extract from an Araerl can nowspaper, tho Xorwlch Courier, concerning nu ovent that had Just oc curred.

Wright In reply to a question said ho was a practicing lawyer and ono of tho editors or iho Chronicle and Senti nel at Augusta, Ga. Ho further testified that tho pcoplo of that Stato wero pcaco- ablo and law-abiding, and that tho laws aro as fully enforced as they wcro bo foro tho war. The witness said that his law practice extended to ten counties and rrom his personal observation and knowlcdgo or tho State, ho could say tho negroes enjoyed all tho privileges In tho Courts accorded to tho whites, In fact, tho Juries seemed to lean a littlo to ward thoncgrocs, from apprehension or fear that thoy mlghtbe suspected of do ing Injustlco to them, In reply to a question whether ho know of whlto men having committed offenses against negroes, horepllcd that ho prosecuted a whlto man for tho murder or a negro, who, however, was convicted of man slaughter, and sontonco I for tho full term allowed by tho law. In tho samo Court, In tho samo county, a whlto man charged witli tlio murder or a negro, was round guilty ond sentenced to bo hanged on tho first Friday or Septem ber. Whllo theso two trials wcro in progress, twelve whlto citizens or Wash ington county wcro arrested under tho Ku-Klux laws carried ono hundred and thirty miles, and tried by United States Commissioner for assault and battery on negroes. They wcro kept in Jail sev eral days, but on Investigation before a carpet-bagger, Lceand General Swayne, they wcro acquitted. Tho witness said ho had no reason to bcllcvo thcro was' any organized band of Ku-KIux in Georgia, for political purposes, nor ho had never hoard of any, lie, however, knew of a band or marauders llko Mor roll's gang, that extended through a portion of tho counties of tho district In which ho lived, and tho two whlto men convicted in Washington county, wcro suspected of belonging to tho band. A man by the namo of Reese, who killed a negro, was round guilty by a military Commission, but was pardoned by Pres ident Johnson. This samo man, not long ago, killed another person, and was tried, round guilty, and sentenced to bo executed on tho' 4th or August. Gov ernor Bullock reprieved him, and his friends said, In order to havo him par doncd it was necessary to mako somo arrangements. In answer to tho ques tion as to tho naturo or tho arrange ments, tho witness replied thoy involV' cd tho raising or a sufficient amount or money In furtherance or that design Tho witness was interrogated at somo length about tho Georgia Legislature. Tho Republicans naving In 1809 ob talned a majority through tho action or General Terry, acting, as he sold under tlio order or President Grant, nnd also through tho action or Harris, a master or transportation. Whllo Harris was engaged in organizing the House, a military commission with General Ru ger nt tho head, was examining tho qualification or tho members. General Itugcr and his board reported sixteen or twenty members to bo Ineligible un der tlio Constltutionablo amendments, and this secured a Republican majority. A Senator Irom tho Forty-fourth dis trict, who had served two terms In tho Legislature, died, when tho commission or Harris put In his place tho man whom tho deceased had defeated at tho election. Having been asked what ef fect disfranchisement under tho Four teen Ui Amendment had on tho public mind, tho witness replied that it was a cause of complaint anion.; tho people against tho government. They mur mured beeauso tlio men, heretofore ac customed to conduct public affairs, wero kept out of ofilco whllo their formor slaves wero now tho lawmakers. If the disabilities of tho pcoplo wero removed and thoy allowed to select Uio host men for tho public offices, there would bo no cause of complaint against tho govern ment. Tho relations or tho whlto and black races wero perrectly harmonious. Tho negroes had been neither cheated nor swindled, but fairly treated. Diffi culties frequently roso beeauso tho ne groes could not tell, In calculating tho shares of crops, whether one-tenth or ono-thlrd was. tho most. Frequently, arbitrators wero called in to determine tho question for them. Tho witness having been asked whither ho knew of any person having been whipped by disguised persons, replied that a whlto man named Ferguson was seized by a band or negroes, stripped and nearly wnippeu 10 ueatu by them. A negro man was prosecuted tor living In ndul tery with a whlto womau. He was tried and convicted but was pardoned by Governor Bullock. Tho frequent pardons produced much mlschler. A littlo whllo after tho abovo named con vlctlon a whlto man was convicted for living in adultery with a negro woman. but through tho efforts of Governor Bullock's prosecuting officer tho man was discharged ou a technical defect in tho proceedings. Tho citizens whipped a whlto man and a negro woman who had bocn living lu shamo. Thoro wore no politics lu theso occurrences. Tho pcoplo resorted to such punlshmont bo cnuso of tho mischief to society produc ed by tho indiscriminate pardons or Governor Bullock. Palpitation of the Heart.

Faih Play on the Turf How the Law may Interfere. On Iho 20lh or May last, at a trotting match at Breczo Park, near Philadelphia, a man named James, Fleet threw a coat at "American Girl'' as sho was coming down tho homo stretch, in tho lead. Fleot was arrested, and charged -with an assault and battery on Bon). Daniels, tho driver. Judgo Allison, or Phila delphia, In his chargo to tho Jury, Bald: " In this caso It Is not pretended that tho coat thrown did como In contact with tho driver, but that it did come in contact with tho horso. If thq Inten tion was to strlko tho horso tho act would amount to an assault and battery on the driver, If, this driver had been thrown out or Ms sulky nnd killed, tho defendant could havo been Indicted and convicted of murder, and It might prob ably bo murder In tho first degree. If the defendant went out rrom tho crowd or spectators on this occasion, and throw tho coat or other obstruction at tho horse, tho horso, buggy nnd man, being tho samo and Indivisible, an assault and battery on tho horso amounts to an as sault on tho, man driving it. It tho coat struck the horso, tho battery on tho horso Is a battery ou tho driver. If thq nourishing of thq coat affected tho progress of the horte, so as to causo tho lattor to swervo or Jerk tho sulky from IU rue, course, and to rudely Jostlo or disturb tho driver, then tho defendant was guilty of an assault and battery," Tho Jury, under this chargo and testl mony, rendered a verdict of guilty. Sontonco postponed, It will probably surprlso many pco plo to learn that tho territory called " British laics," or which Great Britain and Ireland aro tho chief", lying off tho European continent, aro fully COO In number, nnd that 175 aro inhabited.
