THE HAUNTED HOUSE,•
OR, TILE SECRET PANEL.
I had just returned from hoarding-iselionl
my native village of S-, in England, con
gratulating myself on the prospects of roaming
once more beneath its shady trees; and resting
under the time-worn roof of thoold family man
sion. My mother had died in my childhood, and
I was left to the care of my father, who paid ve
ry little attention to ine, until my thirteenth year,
.whenl was rent off 'to Mme. Lemond's school,
some three handfed : miles from home. It was
very seldom_that I hoard from our village; in
deed a, letter was a strange thing to mo, and if
by.che nee I received Cho from. my father, and
opened it, expecting to realize a rich feaeqout of
its contents, I found it filled up with such sen
tences as these: "Be a good girl and learn your
lessons;" and "Bo carhful end not make -a fool
of yourself among the We 11-educated girls who at
tend with you." Not one word of kindness or
love.
I never returned home duriug the holidays ; so
when I arst caught sight of my birth-place, after
learineschool, I was seventeen 'years of ago;
fearless girl, possessing but little beauty, but, I
must say, a good educatitiii:!
0! how everything was changed at home!—
The old house had been partly torn donut and re
built, and the old tree that used to stand by the
side of the house, and shelter my little room from
the glare of the sun, had been cut down, and
either conveyed away or burnt fur7fire-wood,—
The grounds had bean renovated, nude lawn laid
out before the house; and what was the cause of
ail this change? I soon found out: my father
bed married during my absence.
Ilia second partner was a widow of some per
sonal beauty, net quite past the meridian of life,
possossing no property whatever. She had come
to the village some two years after I had left,
bearing hpon her person her credentials of wid
owhood in the shape of a black dross and shawl;
also a bonnet and a very lung veil of the same
sombre hue. I know nothing of the eeurtship
or ettuse of my father an itiogithstslf to a str.ange
woman ; but I do know that I found her install
ed within my father's house, and that I had .a
step-mother. She welcomed me very coldly, and
I was not backward in following suit.
My father greeted me more cordially than I
had expected. lie looked haggard anti care-worn.
"What was the matter? Had he failed in heal
ness ?" I asked, with solicitude, (though I knew
that the latter was almost impossible, as he was
possessed or some means, and never speculated.)
Before he had time to answer,
,my step-mother
Fpore : "0 ! he has h....at .very isoltell,.tfonsome
days, with a severe cold." After talking awhile
1 ong,er I arose and wont out upon the lawn. I
then walked a few stopsdown upon the shrubber
ies, when I observed an old man ht riorli, whom
I thought I recognized as a man of all work, who
used to be shout the place when I left home. I
had nut forgotten his name, so I called to him :
"Peter! Peter !" The old man turned slowly
around. "Don't you know ode? lau lirdlo Al
'too," said I.
lie vital upon me for a few moments, and
then ho stretched out his brown and withered
hands, and grasping mine, he said :
"Yo, indeed, thou art little Alice,iwho used to
play around the grounds some four years ago, if
I mistake me not. Thou art like thy mother."
Hear It tear-drop fell' from the old man's eyes up
on the grrss.
"Did you ever see my mother ?" I naked.
"Yes, yes ; she was too good for this world ;
but yet her spirit does not rest."
"What do you mean 2" questioned I.
The old man said not a. word, but taking me
by the hand, be led me around the sid e of the
mansion which had been ihhabitej by my mother
when alive; but wlfich was now and had beau
shut up for some time; and pointing up to the
windows, which were closed, he said, in a trem
bling voice:
"At those windows, every t;:igiit; at eleveti o'-
clock, a glimmering light appears at the middle
window. Do ;Volt see it there ?"
Great heavens, it was the very LOOM in which
my mother breathed bar last; Iliad often thought
of its gloomy hangings:and the large panels set
within the walld, for our house was of ancient
build. Evening was drawing to a close; so I
bade the old man goad night, with my mind made
up but to one purpose, which was to spend the
night in the room were my mother died.
I was a hAI girl, unlike many °thus of my
sex ; I had never known fear, at least the fear of
ghosts, spectre lights, Jo., bn. In fact, I coned
ered these things an egregious humbug.
I crossed the lnwn and entered the hoUsu; and
was soon seated at the tea table, where I Lroach
ad the subject, mid asked them to' prepare the
room ; my step-mother demurred a little, but at
last seeing that I was bout upon haTing, my own
wily, she ceneonted. My father said nothing,
which did riot surprise me, as he Was al ways tac
iturn. lied time came, I took in my hand a cau
die and proceeded slowly up stairs end entered
the "room ;" a bright fire was burning in the
grate, and as it cast its bright rays upon the black
hangings of the tied and furniture, it would seem
to a disordered imagination, ns if a thousand de
moos were dancing within the chamber.
I laid down upon the bed without disrobing,
and before know it, I was looked in a slumber;
I was awakened by the noise of footsteps in
the room ; I lay us still as death ; could it be
possible, I thought to myself can Übe true? does
the spirit of- my dear mother visit the earth ? A.
faintness came over me, but with an effort I con
quered it, and looked out upon the room. There!
yes, there before an open space, which had been
once covered by a panel, stood a figure clothed
"unlike modern ghosts, in a heavy black dress."
I was horror-struek. All at once the figure turn
ed its head. Great heavens! it was my step
mother! There she stood, staring me full in the
face, her eyes wide open. She was a somnam
bulist; but what could have brought her here.—
Again she turned her head, but it was to gaze
upon the recess. Angels defend me, itwas pack
ed- for a space of FIX inches from the bottom with
gold coin, which glistened in the lust rays of my
fast expiring candle.
It was a moment of excitement for me, I know
ell. I arose softly from the bed, and went out of
the chamber, the door of which I looked; laav
tug the key within. I then found my way to my
father's chamber and aroused him, and hastily
explained whet was going on within my mother's
chamber. lie was all exei tauten t; be led the way
up to the ohamber and unlocked'slie door, wee's-

sewed. She still stood by the open Panel, gazing
upon the treasure. My father sad I adsmnettd,
and before I could stay his arm, he had grasped
her by the shoulder ; the awoke, gave one look

BORDER AbVENTURE.
Extraordinary strength and activity, with the
most daring courage, and a thorough knowledge
of life in the woods, won for Joshua Flechart
high reputation among the first settlers of West
ern Virginia and Ohio. When the Ohio Com
pany founded its: settleniont at Marriotte, ;n April
1778, Fleohart was employed as scout and hunter.
In this service he had no superior north of the
Ohio. At periods of the greatest danger, when
the Indians were known to be much incensed
against the whites, be would start from the set
tlement with no companion Lot his dog, and rang
ing within about twenty miles of an Indian town,
would build his cabin and trap and hunt during
nearly the whole season. On one occasion this
reckless contempt of danger almost cost the hunt
er his life. Having beeome tired of tae same
ness of garrison life, and panting fur that freed am
among the woods and hills to which he had al
ways been accustomed, late in the fall of 1795, ho
took his canoe, rifle, traps and blanket, with no
one to accompany him, leaving even his faithful
dog in the garrison with his family—for he was
going into a dangerous neighborhood, and he
was fearful least his bark might betray him.—
With Caring and intrepidity, he pushed his canoe
up the Sciota river, a distance of fifteen or twen
ty miles, into the Indian country, amidst their
best hunting grounds for the bear and the beav
er. x':^; no no white dared to venture.
ThiettWO wore 'the, main objects of his pur
sait, as the hills of Brush creek were said to
abound in beer, and the small screams that fell
into the Sciota were well suited to the haunts of
the beaver. The spot chosen fur his winter's res
idence was within twenty•five or thirty miles of
the Indian town of Chilieothe, but as they seldom
go far to hunt in the winter, he had little to fear
front their interruption. Fur tea or twelve weeks
he trapped and hunted in this solitary region
unmolested. Hie, success had equalled his most
sanguine elpeetations, and the winter passed
away so quietly and so pleasantly, that he was
hardly aware of his progress.
About the middle of February, be began to
make np the paltry he had captured into pack
ages, and to load his canoe with the proceeds of
his winter's hunt, which for safety had been se
creted in the willosv4; a few miles below the
bark but in which be had lived. The day be
fore that which he had fixed on fur his departure,
as lie was returning to his camp just at evening ,
Fleebart's acute ear caught the report of a rifle in
thedireetion of the Indian towns, but at do remote
a distance, that none but a Itel:woodsman could
have distinguished the sound. This hastened
his preparations for decamping,. Nevertheless
he slept quietly, Luc ruse the following morning
before the dawn ; cooked and ate his last meal
in the little hut to which he hail become quite
attached. The sun had just risen, and he was
sitting en the trunk of a fallen tree, ex
acting the printing and luck of his gnn, casually
casting a look up the river bank, he saw an In
dian slowly approaching with his eyes intently
fixed on the ground, carefully inspecting the
truck his moceasine left in the soft earth as. he
taunted to his but the evening before. He in.
stantly cocked ldsgun, stepped hehind a tree, end
waited till the Indian came within the sure range
of his shot. Ile then fired and the Indian fell.
Rushing from the cover on his presume foe, he
was about to apply the scalping knife; but see
ing the shining silver broaettee, and broad bands
on his arms, ho fell to cutting them hromianal
tuek:ng them into the bosom of his hunting shirt.
While busily occupied in securing the spoils, the
sharp crack of n rifle, and the passage of a ball
through the bullet pouch at his side, caused h itu
to look up, when he saw three Indiana within a
hundred yards of him. They being too natuer
ous fur bim to encounter, he seized his rifle and
took to flight. The oilier two, as he ran, - fired at
bite without effect. The chase was continued for
several miles by two of the indinne, who were
the swiftest runners. Ile often stopped and
"tree - d," hoping to get :t shut and kill or d isable
one of them, tied then overcome the ether at his
leisure. Ills pursuers . also "treed," and by flank•
ing to the right and left, forced him to uncover or
stand the entente of a shot.
concluded to leave the level grounds
on which the contest had thus far been held, and
take to the high hills which lie back of the bot
tame. Ills strong muscular limbs here gave him
the nava - etageres he could ascend the steep hill
sides more rapidly titan his pursuers. The Indi
ans, seeing that they could nut overtake him, as
a last effort, stopped and fired. One of the balls
cut away the handle of his hunting knife, jerk
ing it so violently against his side, that for it mo,
ment he thought he was wounded. Ho immedi
ately returned the fire, and with a yell of vexa
tion they gave up the chase. Fleehart made a
circuit among the bills, and just at dark came on
to the river, near where the canoe l a y hid,—
Springing on board he paddled down the stre.am.
'Being greatly fatigued with the effort of the day,
be lay down in the °mime, and when ho awoke
in tire morning the boat was just entering the
Ohio river. Crossing dyer the4' !malaria shore,
he, in a few days, passed his ‘nertee up to the
Farmer's mei le, Without further adventure, where,
he showed the rich packages of paltry, as the pro.
seeds of his winter's hunts, and displayed the
brilliant glint' ornaments as the trophies of - his
victory, to the envy and admiration of hi; lees

Ind° 1 was at hie house, I inquired of him
abut remarkable noise whith I had, When a
boy. heard that he and Eis family had been an
noyed by when they lived in Virginia. He gave
this aneount of it:
His family, at'lhe time, consisted of himself,
wife, and Cour ela Thins:l. One evening, all the fam
ily being I,.guther, their attention wee attr a ct e d
by a noise, which very muidi resembled the fain t .
groans of a person in pain. Tt was diatinet,and
repeated at /inert-09.f a few secostle. It seemed
to be under the till of the window, and between
the clap boards and the ceiling. They paid very
little attention to it, anal in a very short tine it
ceased. But, afterwards, it ratan:ma in Old as;ir.o
way—sometittlet every gunman - Jos not
so fiequei,t!y—niid abrays in thi fianiq place, and
of the same character. It eautirmed for some
months. Du said it excited their so , :lasity and
annoyed theta, but‘ they were net alarmed by it:
During ha continuance they had Om siding and
casing removed from the plate whirs it appeared,
to be, but found nothing to:aces:ant for it, and
the sound continued the same.
Elltn.k BARTLETT
lie consulted his friends, espeeially sodicof life
Ministerial brethren, %bout it. I think he said it
was never hoard y any:except himself and his
family ; but it was heard by them when he was
absent from home. Mrs. Leland said that ttfifti
while She was alone with the chile-rem, and while
they were playing about the r. out, and nothing
being said, it would come, and ey would leave
their ploy and gather about her 7,..srzon. They
had a place City or sixty rods fram the house, by
the side of a brook, where the fatally did their
washing. One day. while elle was at that place,
it met her there precisely as it had elohe de the
house.
After the noise had been limit at brief intervals
j for, I think, six or eight months, they ismeyed,
their lodgings to quite an oppoz , ito and dist;iii
Part of the house; but it continual =usual, for
( sometime, in its old locality. One night, after
theyhad retired, they observed by the szmad thatit.
had left the spot from which it had previously
proceeded, and seemed to be advancing in a direct
I line towards their bed, and was becoming etre!-
, stoutly louder and more dirt incE:
At each interval it advanced towards them, and
gathered strength and fullness, until it entered
the room where they were, and approached the
bed, when the groan became deep and appalling,
"Then," said be. "for the first time since it be
gan, I felt the emotion of fear? I turned upon my
face, and if even prayed in lily life Iprayed then.
I asked the Lord to deliver me and my faiiiirY
from that annoyance, and that, if it Wen* mes
senger from heaven it might be naplained to tie;
and depart; that if it were ;n spirit, per
mitted to dhsturh end di vrvt!c!.... r - ..c::nd my family,
it might be rebuked and sent away ; or if there
was anything for mo to du to make it depart, I
might be instructed what it was, so that I could
do it." This exercise restored bie tranquility
of mind, and he resumed his usual position
in the bed. Then, ho said, it uttered a groa'n
too loud and startling to be imitated by the het 7
loan voice. The next groau was not as laud, and .
it receded. a step or two from the front of the
bed, neat his face- It continued to recede in the
direction from which it came, and grew lees and
less, until it reached its old station, when it died
away to the faintest sound, and entirely and for
ever ceased.
No explanation was ever found. "..t have gw--
en you," he said, "a simple and true history of
the facts, and you tan form your own
I give none." Ifls wife confirmed all he said. I
think I can say that T invoi. knew a person less
given to the marvelous than Bider Leland.
Bills have been leveled, rallies filled up, and
cities built, by the might of mom and his works
have been justly considered as great and reiglif

of the sea, resembling the produations of,93,aget

Was the work of little jelly-like animals, by the
naturalist; Peysonnel, in 1751, scientific men
pronounced the idea absurd. It is well known
that coral islite stout' frames Isehm7;ing to et:tr

composed of millions of their skelsteat. We
have received a largo specimen of this marine
marble aura, sent to as by George B. liarkuese,
engineer of Fort jefrafsbn, Fla. It is of the kind
found at the T:titugas islands, and is very beau
tiful, brunching out into bread leaves, rivalling
in their thin tracery trosh.i of the most skilful
scolptors. Coral is prinelp,,lly composcd of lime;
the insects secrets it from the waters of the sea,
and as each generatien eipirtie, its successors

ocean as coral ruck, and islands. The operations
of these marine insects are principally confined
to the warmer waters of the ocean, such Ws kliO
Oar of lorlda, and the ludian and Pacific Oceans,
It is remarkable that, at fifty miles back from the
sea coast, in the Carolinas, as perfect specimens
of coral ore frequently dug from the marl .nits;
as those obtained fresh from the sea. The lime
stone of Row Jersey, and of Missouri, give evi
dence of their s coralino origin, thus eforditag'
proof that many extensive tracts of this country
wore once under the waters of the great deep;
and that these little creatures wore the builders
of many hi' the reeks and mttefi of 'the dry lend.
But the coral insects perform another great office,
besides increasing the boundaries of the land.—
It. is well knOwn that silica, lime, magnesia, al
umni, okyde of iron, and other soluble impuri
