A HAUNTED HOUSE.

Story of a Highwayman who was Hanged.

Wigan is hardly the place with which one would associato a spook. Desolato mounds of clinker, colliery waste heaps, smoking chimneys, grime and soot, yes; | ghosts, no.

But for all that, the spectro' does exist, Fearful stories of his nocturnal misdeoda have been leaking out for a fortnight, He bas set a whole village agog, and as often as possible he disturbs the slumbers of a household with which he has chosen to associate himself.

The following narrative has no preten. tions to a ghost story. It is simply the re- cord of the observations of a sceptical inves tigator who spent his nights in the haunted chamber, and therefore had excellent opportunities of inquiry into phenomena which are certainly extraordinary, and in ono sense wholly inexplicable.

"The 'haunted house,' he says, 'is one of many old dwellings in Upholland, a mining village two or three miles on the Liverpool and South port side of Wigan, sud under- neath Billize Lump,' the only hill of any consequence in South-West Lancashire. It is tenanted by a widow named Winstanley, along with her little daughter and four sons. 'Of four bedrooms three are in uso. Que is occupied by the mother and daughter, And the other two by the Rons, three of. whom sleep in that which overlooks the main street. Opposite is the parish church, a substantial building of ancient date, once connected with the neighbouring abbey that gives a name to the local lake and pleasure gardens. It stands in the corner of a large and terraced graveyard said to contain the remains of a famous highwayman named Lyons, who died on the gallows about the end of the eighteenth century. Thero are also rumours of a. subterranean passage, which

a for the house itself, it is undoubtedly of great age. It is built entirely of stone, plastered and papered on the inside. Ex- ternally. there is nothing to notice excopt a blind window which was bricked up many

years ago, and now forms part of a wall in the 'ghost's' bed-chamber. For the rest, the boys and girls of Upholland whisper in 1376 the ingle nooks of an old man who disp

peared from the houso about a dozen yesra ago. It is also said that 100 years ago the mansion was used as a gambling den, in spite of mysterious protests from the spirit world. There are tales of pennies, that, thrown in the air, adhered to the ceiling or came down black hot. Lyons himself is said to have once lived in the place. In fact, there is no end to its history.' -

The present disturbances are' said to have begun on the night of the first solely bu tus autnority of the son, William Sunday of the month, and are described Winstanley. He says that various occasions in the past noises have been heard in the house, but it was not until two weeks ago that they were sufficiently. obtrusive to call for observation. On this particular night his three brothers had gone to bed, and slept on undisturbed

till about one o'clock in the morning, when they were roused by a furious knocking in

the neighbourhood of the blind window. Next came a sound as of paper being torn violently from the wall Pieces of plaster then came away. some being thrown on to the bed, other about the room, and 1628 finally stones, great and small, were flang violently about the room, crashing on the floor like hundred weights,' but falling on to the bed so lightly as to injuro in no way its startled occupants...

CLARKE,

As for the knocking, it travelled around the chamber, always stopping in the centre, nearer to the door than any- 1630 | thing. These phenomena are said to have occurred almost nightly with slight varia- tions, as, for instance, when the window- curtain was removed from its place and atretched over the longth of the bed. A bandbox, and some books that, rested on the old window-sill, were also turned into missiles by the"ghostly' visitor, and a stone on which a piece of paper had been placed as a test was discovered resting snugly underneath the sheets between two of the boys

It was eight o'clock, and the family was gathered in the kitchen around a blazing fire, all ex- cept the widow, who. I learned, was upstairs.

In order to make assurance doubly sure, they had removed, a day or two before, all the stones from the corner in which the spook operates, and satisfied themselves that there was nothing behind it in the way of a trap-door.

As for explanations, they are without end, but the most popular is that which attributes the demonstrations to the con- iderate genero ty of some poor ghost dssirous of revealing the whereabouts of some buried treasure.

A WONDERFUL DISCOVERY. This is thenge of research and experiment, when all unture, so to speak, is ransacked by the scientific for the comfort and happiness of man. Science has indeed made giant strides during the past century, and among the by no means least important- henes in medicine comes that of Therapion. of which will be found is another This preparation is unquestionably one of the most genuine and reliable l'atent Medicines everintroduced, and has, we understand, been used to the Continental Hospitals hy Ricord, Rostan, Jobert Velpeau, Maisonneuse, the well-known Chassaignac, and indeed by all those who are regarded as authorities in such matters, including the celebrated Lallemand, and Roux, by whom fi was some time since uniformly adopted, and that it is worthy the attention of those whorequire such remedy we think there is no doubt. From the time of Aristotle downwards, a potent agent in the removal of these diseases has like the fained phi- losopher's stone) been the object of search of hopeful, generous minds; and far beyond the mere If such could ever have been discovered-af transmuting the baser metals into gold is surely the discovery of a remedy so potent as to replenish the failing energies of the comfirmed read in the without the one case, and in the other sq effectually, speedily ad or even the knowledge, of a

of acquired or inherited disease in all their poisons protean forms as to leave nolaint or trace behind. Such is The New French Remedy Therapion, which mas certainly rank with, if not take precedence of many of the discoveries of our day, about which wo little ostentation and noise have been made. anitheextensive and ever-increasing demand that has been created for this medicine wherever intro- dived appears to prove that it is destined to cast into oblivion all those questionable remedies that were formerly the sole reliance of medicamen Therapion may be obtained in England directs from the proprietor, and of the principal Chemist and Merchauts throughout the Colouies, India China, Japan, &c., not even excluding such remote districts as Central Africa, the Piji Islands, St Helena,&c.-DiamondFields Advertier KIMBERLEY Doid by All Uhemists,
