Many persons complain of a dull pain in the side, constipation coated tongue, pain in the shoulder blade, feelings of drowsiness and restlessness, the food 'ying heavily on the stomach,. accompanied with acidity and belching up of wind. = =

Or not speak about them at all. - MRS. PLUMSTEAD’S DREAM. Mrs. Plumstead was a nervous, fidgety little body, always berrowing trouble about something she was sure was going to happen, or else elated over the prospect of some good luck that she.was equally as certain was about to visit her. - : :

Although Mrg. Plumstead lived in this nineteenth ecentury, amd though her lot had been cast among people of intelligence, 8, great deal of supersti‘tion of past ages had found firm lodgment in her mind. ] 4 It she broke a‘mirror, the accident was considered’a sure harbinger of coming ' evil: If she saw the new moon first over her left shoulder, nothing but disappointment and petty annoyances was looked for for that month. If a bird fiéw into the house and out again sbefore it could be - caught, death was coming to the house within the year; but if on the contrary the bitd could be seeured, her heart was to be gladdened bﬁr the speedy arrival of some relative or friend frém ' a distance. If Mrs, Plumstead diopped a fork or a pair of seissors, and’ they stuck upward in the floor, or if the rooster came before the door to crow, or two chairs were accidentally placed so that their backs carge in contact, or if. the good dame chanced .to drop her dish-cloth, company was expected and prepared for, and Mrs. Plumstead averred that no matter how great a quantity of cakes and tarts she baked after one of these “sure signs,” she never had them spoil for want of help to eat thenmd. -~ ;|

Then Mrs, Plumstead would never put a comb or & brush to her heafl after dark, no-matter what the occasion, for fear “combing sorrow into her heart.” 1f she inadvertently put a garment on wrong-side out, she would on no account change it till night, for fear of some catastrophe which would assuredly follow. I she experienced a roaring sensation in one of her ears a funeral was looked for, and the particular auricular in which the sound was - heard indicated the sex of 'the deceased individual. A loaf of bread. coming from the oven with, a crack reaching clear across It, denoted a deatlr in the family or neighborhood and was always beheld by the little woman with awe. :

Then, too, Mrs. Plumstead was a firm “believer in dreams.” She would always say (after the event) “I knew it would be so. I foresaw it all as plain as day in. my dreams.” She never arose from the breakfast-table without having recounted the many dreams with which: she had been favored or frightened—according -as they were good or evil presages—during the night. DButon Sunday morning only the more pleasant .of her dreams were related, as Mrs. Plumstead firmly believed.that By

“Suturday dream and Sunday told ' Will come to pass ere it’s nine days old,e and wisely withheld all she did not wish realized. . :

As a general thing Mrs. Plumstead’s dreams were of a happiness-presagin character. She was seldom trotibleg‘ in wleep by anything more formidable than snakes, but as they answered to so many enemies, she nearly always contrived not to awake until she had killed the last one, and that thouglit always afforded her a deal of satisfaction.in her wakeful hours. et

But one’ night Mrs. Plumstead awoke in a cold sweat. “Sueh a horrid, horrid dream,” murmured she, As she turned from side to side, and covered her face with the counterpane to keep out the alarming visions.

“Oh, if I onlv dare wake John and tell him. But I mustn’t. It would be all the more. certain to come true, told before the sun rises.” Oh, my poor children. Oh, my defgh‘ husband, what will become of vou when I am taken from you.” t :

The lark was no sooner astir than Mrs. Plumstead was up and dressed. | Never before had she risen with so doleful a ‘countenance. - She went about her morning duties with a quiet, subdued mien entirely new to her. “What on earth ails you, mother? You look as though you had lost yvour best friend,”inquired her husband, as he came in for his breakfast. Mrs. Plumstead turned: her heavy eyes to wliere her children were seated. ' “The poor dears, must. they loose their.best friend, their mother? Oh, John,” and the little woman sat down | and burstlinto tears. ' = ¢ 3 “You have ‘had a dream?”? said John, who out of respect for his wife, had eome to regard her whims with toleration, if nothing more. : ““Yes, John.” - - “Well, let’s hear it. Was it the Sev-en-headed dragon again 2” g . “You know I killed the dragon, John. I never worried about that.— But this was different—a very pecu-’ liar dream.” My days are surely numbered,” = - i : “And what is "“the number?” inquired John dryly, for though his wife’s distress troubled him, he thought best inm order to quiet her feelings to show as little concern as possible. . : : 7 : “Just three months from to-day, on the tenth of June, my poor children will be"— L | Here Mrs. Plumstead broke down and gave way to another violent fit of weeping, occasionally —eclasping her children in her arms, and again embracing her husband as if for the last time on earth.: At length she recovered suflicient composure to relate the dream, which was the source of her prief.. . o : I thought I was walking by a great, ‘dark river, John. - Oh, how dark and cold it seemed. While I walked. along I saw ‘many oﬁ our friends and acquaintances approach and pass through the gurgling water to the ' shore beyond. As Istood there gazing “after them there arose out of the river a monstrous creature. Oh, John, it was too horrible to be described.— It had eyes like fire, and the hoirns on its head were like great swords. «As 1 gazed at it, 1t came slowly toward me, and as it did so, it changed into a great white horse—the type of death, you know John—and on the horesg ‘was a skeleton rider; which beckoned to me with its bony hands, and: someTow I could notTesist its call.

Quite a terrible dream, truly, but. if Mrs. Plnmstead thad reflected on the quantity of appl“f.f'dgm’pl'ing and mincepié which had disappeared’ from her plate the previoas night, she might have found & different interpretation to her drean. , :

Days and weeks went by, and Mrs. Plumstead’s plump form dwindled almost to a shadow. She tried to seem cheerful: and -resigned, was over-in-dulgent to her children, and anticipated her husband’s slightest wish, that her dear ones might remember her with the more love when she was gone. Mrs.laines, a widowed sister, came to live with her to ¢heer her up, and, if : possible, make her forget her dream‘and its terrible i;ﬁpor‘t.“ i

‘+ F'riends and neighhors were with the unhappy woman f(most constantly. Some did their 15!: to reason her out of the belief wlich possessed her. Others were sp® that the dream mer;m‘ sometning; and were profusein their words of sympathy, .pro‘misihg to have a care for the little ones so soon to be leff motherless. Among this latter classwas Jemima Jenkins, an old maid, and tlfe firstlove of John Plumstead. Not a day passed bub Jemima was with Mrs. Plumstead, urging her to bé reconciled to her fate, and offering little attentions to John, “because,” as she said, “poor dear Mrs. Plumstead wain such a sad way as to be unfitted for the care of her husband and childten”? 1 L

“Jemima’s kindness soon became a new source oftrouble to Mrs: Plumstead.: . e : :

“I see through . it all,” she would say to her sister. “She. means to marry John, aid, no doubt, before I am .cold in my grave she will be installed in my place.” ik < April has -passed, and May was almost gone, when one day Mrs. Plumstead sat in the midst of half a score of sympathizing neighbors including Jemimga Jenkins, who was holding the youngest c¢hild on her lap, calling him endearing names and telling him he was a “handsome fellow, the very image of his pa, who, poor fellow, would soon have .the sole care of . his helpless little enes.” ) :

Mrs. Plumstead had hecome too used to such remarks as jthese, and hermind was too much engrossed with less wordly thoughts to pay much heed to them; but her husband set his lips togethér in a very decided manner, and Miss Jemima, mistaking the‘reason and supposing he. was not yet wholly resigned to what was soon to be, read him a homily on “the folly. of the will of man rebelling against the deciees of Heaven.” .

“The tenth.of June comes on Wednesday, I think you said?” and Mrs. Plumstead turned her white face toward her husband’s chair. ‘) “Yes, the tenth of June will come on-that day—next year.” , This last was added in an undertone. el 1 ‘ !

', “Just a week from the day after tomorrow; then,” said Jemima, quickly; “but I thought it came -sooner, though our almanac has been missing for some tiame, 50 as I could not be positive. But where is yours? I will get 1t and maxe sure.” g . :

Mr. Plumstead seemed not to ‘hear Jemima's question. = Perhaps he did not wish to say that for a certain reason he had hidden the book, ~ - Jemima searched for, the almanac; but-fatling to {ind it, she took a seat beside: Mrs. Plamstead and put her Nandkerchief to her washed-out eyes, saying, almost incoherently: P “Only a week.from Wednesday.— Must we indeed be deprived of your sweet society so soon?” G | The day preceding the dreaded Wednesday arrived, and -Mrs. Plumstead, féeling that it was to be her last. day in the body, did her best to seem cheerful and resigned. = She gave directions concerning the conduet of her funeral, and expressed several wishes concerning her children with calmness. i G ler husband remained with her throughout the day and watched her with palpable anxiety. _ ¥ The next morning Mrs. Plumstead, pale as the dead even ‘then, declared that she could not rise from her bed, that she should never leave it alive, and requested John tg) send at onceé for her pastor. = =

- “No, no, my little wife. The minister mayrcall on us as soon as he pleases, and be welcome; but we won’t send for him this morning. Get up; I have a hoirse and carriage waiting for you. lam going to drive you over to mother’s. It will do you a world of g%o’d.” Ca 2.1 “Oh, John, John, can you trifle with me thus in my last moments?” . “I'think you .said those moments were to come on the tenth,” said John, smilingly. o ~ | “Ot course, you know that, John, and yet you mock me. DBut it is all Jemima’s' doings, ' She has turned your heartfrom your dying wife.”— And Mrs. Plumstead began to sob; and gasp.convulsively. | : “See here, Mary, yesterday was the tenth, and as you are alive and well as usual to-day, which is certainly the eleventh of June, 1 conclude you will be spared to us a little longer.” : Mrs. Plumstead hardly dared eredit her husband’s: words, for fear he was wilfully deceiving her, so he produced the almanac and pointed to the day.— Then, woman fashion, she began to upbraid him for telling her a falsehood. i o

“My purpose must make palliation for my sin, Ilere you were unable to sit up this morning, and, had I not told you what I have, I verily believe your imagination would have helped you out of the world before night.— Besides, 1 said that the 10th of June would come on Wednesday next year. Perbaps you did not hear me, but 1 certainly said it, and I hope my little wife will live to see it, with. many returns of the day. Vi

- PROBABLY MURDERED. The Dead Body of Joseph Berg- - er Found in -the Canal. The Verdict 61’ ﬁne Coﬁmer’s kJury'.\ [From the Goshen Times, Oct. 26.] L On the 7th ot October, Joseph Berger, a German, making his home at Milford,Kosciusko county,came to Goshen to attend the democratic rally held here that day. TFalling in with some companions here, they igot to drinking and . carousing, Berger fighting with two or three individuals during the day. Not returning ;to Milford the same day of the rally, inquiries were naturally made as to his whereabouts, some supposing that he had left this section, while those who had known of his fighting in Goshen during the day of the rally, claimed that

HE HAD BEEN MURDERED. and his body thrown in the Hydraulic Canal. This last supposition was greatly strengthened by the finding of a cap in the canal the next mornmng after the rally, which was recognized by the family as having been worn by the deceased. Also, tracks of a_wheelbarrow leading up to the water at the place where the cap was found. These and other : :

EVIDENCES OF FOUL PLAY were brought to light, but for some reason the water was notlet out of the canal for .the purpose of finding the body. ‘Some of the friends of Berger dragged the canal, but without avail. But on“ Sunday morning last, the water was lowered and the search was renewed. At.-a point a little below the first bridge, and jukt above the second reservoir, the- v BODY OF JOSEPI BERGER WAS FOUND by IHomer Winters, the corpse having been lodged, head foremost, against a stump. . A'Coroner’s Jury was immediately convened, which was held over from day te day, and anumber of witnesses examined, among others Joseph Gudnack and Jacob Radsz. Circumstances at.first led so strongly toward them that the officers felt constrained to imprison them, as e e

TIIEY WERE SEEN FIGHTING ' with the deceased during the day. The Jury, however, failed to. establish any evidence of guilt against -them, and they were released from custody. The body was rigidly examined by Dr. Latta, but ‘he was unable to discover the least evidence of murder, there being mo bruises ‘or bones broKen. . On the other hand, when: the body was taken from the water, the eyes and mouth were closed and he -was not bloated in the least, which would seem to indicate that he had been killed and then put into the. water. 'lt is.certainly a very mysterious case. ~ After summing.up all the evidence taken, the Jury yesterday returned 2 Ly . i ‘THE FOLLOWING VERDICT: .

“We, the Jury, find that the deceased came to his death, from’ causes to us unknown.” . o : Joseph Berger was a native of Switzerland, and aged about 38 years.. Ie was a.soldier 1n the service of

About 9 o’elock on the morning of the 29th, a line of four or five thousand armed men drew around the market 'to prevent Christians from escaping. They manufactured-alarge wooden cross, and tied on it suceessfully all the Christians they .could catch, and then cut them to piece;’st Among. the victims were two lea thens, of whom one was the father o -a convert and the other a' girl of fifteen, whoge brother was a Christian..

Remarkable Case of Trance. ‘[New York Letter.]

A very extraordinary case of suspended animation was revealed at No. 137 Delancey-st., in this city, a few days ago. The victim of itis a Sweedish'girl, aged 22, named Anna Froben. She was taken suddenly while at work with a stroke of what was called paralysis, and fell dead to the floor. The alarmed family ¢alled in a physician, Dr. Lindenborn, who examined the body, and pronounced the girl dead.— Her relatives were sent for, and a ‘brother soon arrived. By this time the girl’s face had turned blue, and there was every evidence that she was a corpse. DBut, to everybqdy’s astonishinent, the brother declingd to believe it, and declared that she was only in a trance, and had been subject to such fits for many years. The friends of the girl were indignan€ at this statement, and sent forthwith for an undertaker to prepare the body for. interment. The man of ‘coffins and shrouds arrived and joined with the physician in pronouncing the girl to bedead beyond possibility of doubt. He proved- it by dropping hot sealingswax upon the breast, and as the body gave no sign of life it was concluded that the undertaker was right. = The body was placed on ice for'the night. Inthe ‘ orning the undertaker returned to omplete his preparations, when to. his horror the girl suddenly starfed up and exclaimed, “I am s 0 cold”—a natnral result of being on ice: all night. She was taken to a fire, and in a short time was able to converse. She said her brother was right, and once before “she had been laid out for burial. . The. _physician was recalled and pronounced the case a very remarkableone,

' A MAIDEN’S REMORSE,

A Young Girl Hiunted by the Ghost of H;em;p'cad Rival—-& Mysho e : . terious <Case. .

~ A correspondent writes from Foster’s Crossing, Ohio, to the Cincinnati Gazette, the following strange narrative: e

A young lady who ‘resides-at the Crossing went to service as a domestie, some time ago, with a family that resides near Monroe, Butler county. She was a pretty, attractive girl, and. soon became a favorite with the young folks in the neighborhood. A young man named. Charles Edgar. became greatly enamored of Minnie and desired to propose marriage to her, but he had already made a mariage engagement with a reputable young woman in that vicinify named -Rosa Smead, and he was in great trouble about it. Not longafter Minnie’s advent in the neighborhood Rosa Smead was suddenly taken ill, and-died within a few hours after she went to bed. The physician said she died from poison. S A e S e S

The event created a good deal’ of excitement in.the fsett}ement for a time, but it soon died ‘out. Minnie. became an object, of unpleasant ‘re-marks‘:-in,\popnectijon with the death’ of Rosa, and'she suddenly returned to her home in the vicinity of the Crossing. Edgai, whose conduct in regard to the poisoning case elicited unfavorable comment, also disappeared from the peigh’borhood of Monroe; and Minnie, although she had reason to believe he'would come ‘to see¢ her at her home, has never seen-him since he disappeared from Monroe. . Recently, Minnie has been “out of her head” at times, and she has’then deported herself very strangely. TFor instance, at times she acts like a lunatic, and when in those “spells” she asserts that Edgar lgoved her madly, but declared hei ecould not ived her unless Rosa Smead was dead. ~Then ‘gl\li-innie's«qggested; that he poigon her! ‘e said he would be suspected if.le procured tlie poison; if Minnie would get the fatal drug he would administer it.. She got a_small package of ratsbane while (ifl_u visit home, and giving it to Edgar when she returned to Mouroe, he gave it to Miss Smead with the result we have staltf.d. - Minnie asserts thatßosa sent forher when on her deathbed, and charged her -with being thﬁ cause of her taking off; and while she! would not expose hex to the authorities, she declared her purpose of pursuing her through life, and torment her so that she would never have peace or happiness in this workdi “At times Minnie will break out in a series of shrieks, ‘and pointing oufi toward the hills,she exelaims: “There! do you see her? There she goes! She’s shaking her {inger at me! Do n’t you see her?” Sometimes she is taken with a sudden shuddering, and appears to be stricken dumb with fright. i : e

° When she recovers she will recite the terrible vision she has just had, and declare her purpose to take her own life, rather than'have a recurrence of such horrible apparitions. When Minnje'is in her usual frame of mind she does not make the slight-' est reference to this tragic affair; she avoids all reference to the subject, and persons who have given the matter some study are of the opinion that. the sensational points of her poisoning story are evolved from a diseased mind. The facts, however, remain that Minnie was in -domestic servicein a family in the vicinity of Monroe;: that she was waited upon by CharleyEdgar; that Edgar was engaged to be married to ‘a maiden named Rosa Smead; that he fell in love with Minnie and broke his engagement with Rosa; that Rosa was taken suddenly ill,’and died within a few hours, and ‘that the'doctor asserted her death was ‘causéd by poison—it was then believed—from eating food that was cooked in a copper vessel; that-Edgar suddenly disappeared from that region, and that Minnie returned home: about the same time. The criminal features are, it is generally: believed, put in' by Minnie when she is- flighty, and they are not credited by those who know her; yet there are persons who shake their heads; and say, “Idon’t know abbut 'that!” The girl has made sevel’al ineffectual attempts to commit suicide by drowning, ahd g’alth:o_ugh she is/ithe major portion of \the time enga‘%ed as a domestic in a family 1n the vieinity of the Crossing, she is closely watched, and the female portion of ‘the household .are . especially' nervous-about her. . :

Since' the election, a searching review of* the returns indicates: pretty ‘c_lvearl,-y to our “friends at: the Capital that there were about three Democrats to’ fi;&vc?r Republicans who voted the greenback ticket.
