When I was &mere boy ',made no more scruple of wandering among the tombstones of Schnaupflyncb.urch yard at dead ofnight than I would of going to the well for a pail of water in broad day. I used to think I should like very much to have a•ghost, : ten yards high, all in white, • come and sit down by me upon.old Herr Schnauf's• tomb some cheerful evening in November, and hold a corn fcirtable chat with me on the subject of demonology ; but I had no hope that it ever would do so, because I utterly dis believed in the existence of any thing of the sort. The haunted belfry stood upon the roof of a atone building in my native Schnaupflyn, known as the Gross Haus, which, on its part, stood at the head of the broad street in our village known as Makeben avenue—after old' Makeben Schnaupf, from Todstadt, am Rhein, who came to America many, many years ago, and settling here, gave name to the village also. He made cigars for a living in the old country, and having got together a fortune of some five hun dred dollars in that fragrant business by the time he was forty years old, Herr Schnaupf married him a wife, came to this country, bought him some wild land in the woods, built him a log cabin, and established the basis of an aristoc racy which exists at the present day io the shape of the Schnaupfs - of Schnaup flyn aforesaid. These descendants, how ever, owing to that disagreeable legend of the haunted belfry, (or to some other thing which might not tell so well in behalf of my story, and may therefore be passed by as a profound mystery,) had not for a great number of years chosen to occupy the old stone building, although Herr Makeben had erected it fort!, family mansion, and had occupied it as such for a number of years. Nor had these descendants even taken pains to keep the Gross Haus in repair. At the earliest time of which_ I have any recollection .of it (which was when I was a very small boy) its windows were all blown mit, its chimneys clogged with rubbish, its winding staircases and the boards of its floors half rotted away, the great wooden steps that once led up to the lofty front door also decayed and quite gone; but its sturdy stone walls stood unshaken, and the old oaken beams of the floor were yet staunch and true. The steps being rotted away, and the threshold of the principal entrances at both front and rear standing high up from the ground, there was butone way of entrance to the Haus, to wit, through the dark and mouldy basement. The legend ran in this wise, as our Rebecca used to tell itme in those nights by the kitchen fire. Herr Schnaupf had a daughter, Margherita, who lived in the old Haus with him. He had also, in very truth, a half-score or so of other children, either at that time or later, but the legend does not say any thing at all about them. When Marg herita was a blooming lass of sixteen she had the misfortune to fall, as bloom ing lasses of sixteen will, in love with a thriftless young scapegrace named Da rius Debtin, son of a shoemaker in the village. After having treated his daugh ter to severe parental admonition on the subject, without the desired effect, old Schnaupf one day, in a high rage, locked Margherita up in the belfry and gave her a loaf of his ancestral black bread for company. Young Debtin, wandering disconsolate in the woods back of the Haus, on the following Sun day, was amazed at seeing a chunk of bread fall at his feet, in which was stuck a note from Margherita in the belfry, praying him to rescue her at any hazard. Young Debtin tore his hair out in hand fuls, and stamped the ground in a rage, then went,down to the village tavern and got drunk out of hand. Thus forti fied, he proceeded to the Haus, boldly mounted the tall steps, rapped at the door with a ponderous stick with which he had provided himself, and demanded to see Herr Schnaupf. He was shown into the old gentleman's office, and that was the last that was ever heard of him. That night the bell up in the belfry began to toll dismally, and Herr Schnaupf went up in a terrible passion to trounce Margherita for disturbing his slumbers. There he found the pow girl dead, with the loaf of Schwartzbrod ,untouched by her side—save where she had broken off the piece which she had thrown down to Darius her lover. She had starved to death. After that, on each Sunday night the old bell set up its solemn tolling, much to Herr Schnaupf's distress; and at last unable to endure it longer, he strode up to the belfry, and assisted by one of his men, took the bell down and threw it to the ground, where it lay half buried but unbroken, and where I often saw it when I was a boy. You may ask why Herr Schnaupf put a belfry on the build ing he used as a residence; I answer that I do not know why he did it, but that he did do it is very certain, for there it stands to this day, as you may see whenever you come to Schnaupflyn. As for the legend itself, of course I never believed a word of it. Still less did I believe the nonsensical stories about the ghosts of the lovers wander ing over the old Haus at night, or way ing their arms from the empty belfry I determined to erect a chapel and gather a flock around me. While look ing about for a site, I came upon the old Gross Haus—still unoccupid and in a wretched condition. I resolved to buy it and convert it to my uses, and:did. I doubted if there were a dozen people in Sehnaupflyn then who would recall the old bugaboo story that Rebecca told me by the kitchen fire except to laugh at it. For severalweeks thereafter carpenters, masons, and painters were at work on the old Haus ; partitions were taken down, floors were relaid, the walls were replastered, inside and outside nicely painted, and a lightning -rod put up, whose fork pointed heavenward from the peak of the old belfry. The bell was unearthed and hung in its old place, high up in the belfry—so high that it could not be reached without the aid of a ladder. I had a full house at the opening of my chapel, and the people looked about the spacious lecture-room with great curiosity and interest. In the evening the congregation was still larger. The spiritualist fever had at this time begun to spread, and in Schnaupflyn it was at its height. I observed large numbers of the spiritualistsin my audience; I have always noticed that these people are very, ready to hear the views of their opponents, without being in the least affected by them. On this occasion I attacked their ideas sharply. It is not necessary to give any outline of my argument, for this sketch is not written to make proselytes to a faith which I have since in great part rejected. I instanced, near the close of my sermon, the kinship these modern spiritual ist notions bore to the old ghost-sto ries that frightened out grandmothers, and by way of illustration rehearsed the legend of the haunted belfrey. had barely concluded it when boom ! boom! boom I the old bell overhead began to ring. :great consternation owned among my hcti*eak. :TWO'S* EtAccilind rush for the:door, amidst wldch-one-or - two =women fainted ' and a mank'of them shrieked withaffright. closed the Bible before me and proceeded up the side stairway to the little gallery, where the bell-rope hung. A dozen men followed me. The rope dropped motionless, and still the bell tolled steadily and solemnly. Taking a lamp from its bracket I led the way to the belfry. The bell hung undisturbed high up in the gloom overhead. It struck its last note as the light shone into the belfry, and then all was still. But no sooner had we left the belfry than the solemn tolling recommenced. My companions at that descended the stairway in a body, some with scatter ing haste, and others with what dignity they could conveniently bring to bear on the effort. I returned to the belfry, and found that my presence was again the signal fora suspension of operations. A gust of wind extinguished the lamp, and then the bell began to toll again with redoubled energy. Shall I con fess that for once my nerves were a little shaken? Ido confess. I also descend ed the stairway. " I wonder if he will dare to preach in the place again," I heard one say, as I passed by on my homeward way, af ter having instructed Thomas to put out the lights and lock the chapel door. Next day, provided with a light lad der, I entered the belfry'to institute a careful examination for the cause or causes which could have produce the phenomenon of the previous night. And having found it I laughed heartily over it. After which I destroyed it, and, to remove all possibility of its further operation. I descended and nailed the scuttle firmly in its place. Then I locked the attic door and put the key in my pocket. The boy who swept out the chapel was below engaged in the discharge of his duties. I sternly called him tome. He dropped the broom and approached with terror in his countenance. "So it was you, Thomas ?" I said. " Me, sir ? No, sir, it wasn't me. What was ?" " Very well," said I ; "it doesn't matter. I have nailed down the scuttle. Hold ;our tongue about it that's all. " Yes, sir," said Tom, with such an expression of utter bewilderment in his countenance that I was bewildered my self. It was clear enough that he knew nothing at all about the business. I caused a notice to be inserted in the Schnauptlyn Advocate, which appeared on Wednesday, to the effect that the Rev. Henry Smith would again preach in the New Chapel on the following Sun day, and that at the evening meeting he would explain to his congregation the causes which had led to the mysterious disturbance of the previous Sabbath eve ning, and at once dispose of the foolish theories which were being set forth by the so-called spiritualists concerning said disturbance. You should have seen the crowd that thronged my little chapel when Sunday evening came The aisles were literally packed with persons standing, and even the steps leading to the low platform that served me as a pulpit were occupi ed as seats. The very chair behind me I permitted to be taken by a feeble look ing widow woman of the name of Snuffle, who had known me when I was a boy, and who had lately become a trance-medium, as I had been inform ed, who removed the chair to a point as remote from where I stood as she could possibly get it—which was not off,the platform, however. " For all the manifestations of the so called spirits," I remarked, " there is a simple explanation. I may not know in every instance precisely what that explanation is, but I know that it ex ists, and that it is in no way within the realm of the supernatural . . In every case these phenomena are either pro duced by certain forces of nature with which we are not yet sufficiently fa miliarized, but which the onward march of intellectual discovery will ultimately unfold to us, as it has unfolded the mys teries which now .serve us through the telegraph and the steam-engine ; or they are nothing more than a trick; conceived of roguery, for purposes of gain or amusement. The mysterious ringing of the bell over this chapel on last Sunday night has been seized upon with peculiar avidity by these spiritual ists, and a hob-goblin legend of the early settlement days of this county has been revived to give color to these whimsical and preposterous imaginings of a diseased fancy. But I have exam ined into the causes of the interruption of last Sunday evening, and have taken measures which will prevent a repeti. lion of the occurrence. I have laid the ghost—l have exorcised the spirit—and I have done it with such simple means as a hammer and nails. If these sounds again disturb you I give my spiritualist friends permission to build up their be liefs to the highest alitude. But in the meantime —" Boom! boom! boom! The bell was tolling again. What could this mean ! I paused in momen tary consternation. Possibly my face paled. "Glory to God!" cried Mrs. Snuffle, the trance-medium, rising and stretch ing her hands over the agitated congre grtion, with her eyes upturned in an ecstasy. "I see, I see! The spirit ofa beautiful woman is in the belfry ! She floats in the air ! Her hand rests on the iron tongue of the old bell, and its reverberations answer her touch Hark! I see another ! It is the shadowy from of—" I heard no more ; for slipping out of the church by the private door at the back of the pulpit, I ran to the foot of the old sycamore, and quietly took off my, coat and boots. Then I went up into the tree, climbing in silence to ward the swaying top. "Oh! oh ! oh !" qied in accents of terror a juvenile voice above among the leaves; " man a-comin' !" At the same moment the bell ceased "Don't be afraid of me, little boys," I said, as I came up to them, for there were three, and they were beginning to crawl out upon the branches, so that I feared they might fall and get hurt; " nobody shall treat you ill. Come down and do as I bid you, and I will give each of you a silver dollar." When they got to the foot of the tree, and found that I wanted them to go in to the chapel with me, they held back. "Afore all them forks !" cried Jo. Snuffle; "jings!" Big the money was a tremendous temptation whose force there was no resisting. The trio followed me into the church, where Mrs. Snuffle (the mother of Jo.) had just finished her harangue, and Mr. M'Moll, a prominent spiritualist of the village, was about to follow her in a few remarks. " The monstrous audacity of the reverend • Henry Smith," he com menced, " who growed up in this village as I may say—" Here I tapped him on the shoulder and he retired in good order. Then I produce 1 my boys. " I make no apology my friends," said " for introducing in this manner the boys you see at my side. The degree of importances that has been attached to the performances for which they are re sponsible, justifies me in producing them. Joseph, you may tell the ladies and gentlemen what made the bell ring." "Pull'n th' string," said To., with a broad grin. "Ek!orMatichl I flsteltnEfillfilbout it" ! "Mother, she—said Jo; twisting-his ;cap in his hand, and addressingliiintalf to me in preference to "all ihem : folks" —" mother, -she took on so about it when they said you's agoin' tapreach yere, an' said how't she b'leved th' spurrits 'd ring th' ol' bell, me an' them two," pointing with his cap, to. his juvenile companions, " laid out for some fun. I got inter the belfry an' tied my kite string onter th' clapper, an' throw'd the ball down t' Ike, an' he went up th' tree with it an' tied it outer a lim, an' when night come we went up ail' pulled it— didn't we, Ikeyr Ikey nodded vehemently. "How did you get into the belfry, Joseph?" I asked. "Shinned it up th'lightnin' -rod," grinned Jo. Then I permitted the boys to depart the way they came, after receiving their promise to meddle with the bell nomore, and continued my sermon. Fortified by the case in hand, I proceeded with a line of convincing argument, which, however eloquent, I will refrain from putting into the story. And although it is to be confessed that I did not ex tinguish and destroy the spiritalists of Schnauflyn, who still flourish as of yore, I did completely and satisfactorily lay the ghost of the haunted belfry.
