We whispered our wondcr over what we had heard, and listened at intervals. but there was no sound in the silent house. and with the light and our former wea- pons down we went once more. ‘The spot at which we had heard the voices was marked in our mem- ory in spite of the darkness. and on the right hand, thickly covered with cobwebs, and almost invisible from the closeness of its construction. we found a low deor fastened at the top an bolt of great strength, which had now grown so firm with rust that it defied our ut- most efforts. God knows who had last withdrawn it ! but Henry tried and struggled in vain, and even as he paused to listen, I could hear the boy’s teeth grind in silence, as‘he muttered to himself, ‘ Rent, rent Iâ€" there was something aboutt‘he Ram- scys in that l’ with iron ‘ This idea had indeed taken pos- session ofliis mind, and came strange- ly on my own; butthe bolt could not be moved, there was neither voicc nor light to be seen, and it seemed as if in the great Old house there was not one awake but ourselves. ‘W'ith the determination ofpro- curing a file on the following day, Henry was at last persuaded to give up the attempt, and we proceeded down the stair, in our discovering no less than five doors of a similar description, one on every flat, but no loss firmly barred, not one Of them could we open, but Our great- est efforts and aspirations were, to say the truth, expended on the first. ‘ With double caution for our light, \Vilh a spirit brave and strong, Battle for the right.

Thc sounds which we had heard in our own apartment had long since died away, but in turning a sharp angle, as we afterwards ascertained on the fourth flat, :1 thread-like ray glimmercd across the gloom ; it was but for an instant and all was dark again, but I instinctly laid my hand on the wall through which it seemed to have shone ; it was wood under the dust and cobwcbs ; and‘ judge of our amazement, when distinctly from within came the voice of our pro- fessor, Dr. R ,â€"I should have known it amonga thousandâ€"saying in his usual slow and qutet fashion. ‘Thc head Ofthe Old one would be worth dissection, I should like to see ifhersensorium exhibits any appear- ances to account for such singular‘ illusions.’ ‘ Then spoke a lusky voice, what it said we could not bear. but the concluding word was ‘ rent.’ “Aye,’ said the doctor, ‘that’s. true, the. young girl would answer your interests better; then tO-mor- row night you can use the nitrogen, in the mean time letusscc the article you have got, for the night is wear- ing fast.’ ‘There was a sound of retiring steps, then all was silent, and we clasped each other’s hands, and felt _ ystock and Prices Purchasing elsewhere. Thornhill. Nov. 19, i357 C' LUDFOizgi-ir the walls on either side all the way we at length squeezed through into the large cellar; it was, as l at first observed, half filled with empty casks and barrels, and heaps of value- less lumber, but it was of great exâ€" tent, and at the farther end we per- ceived the cause of our former mis- fortunes in a wide grate, through which the night. wind blew keenly from a narrow close leading through the dense buildings in that part of High Street to the cemetery of the Cannongate. ‘ Up to this grate rose a strait stone stair, and-to our surprise. though cvi- dently long unused, the iron door was movcable as that Of any ordin- ary coal-cellar, which we proved in less than a minute, and both stood looking up at the tall dark houses and the narrow strip Of moonlit sky that appeared between them. ‘ Thus far we were satisfied. Here was a mode Of egress for us ; but our further exploring the cellar revealed nothing. ll'known to anyI of the present inhabitants of the house, it was evidently unemployedi by them. except one corner, the most L‘ remote from the grate, where a step-f ladder led up to an ordinary trap-l door which was fastened outside, l and defied our efforts. The floor‘ around, though clear of lumber, was damp and slippery, from the vicinity‘ of a large old well, which lay close beside the wall. almost covered with ' an enormous flag ; but it sent up :11 heavy odour, asI thought, oflong? stagnant water. ‘ Once again we returned to thc‘ door on the fourth storey, and tug- ged and strained till some ofour skin remained with that rusty bolt. 13an we could not force it, but it movedl nevertheless; and with many a fix- cd resolve to spend the following day in filling, we returned to our room to witness the breaking of the winter day. ‘ This was to be a great day in the anatomy class. The porter in- formed us that a new subject had been obtained, which in those days was an occurrence more welcome than frequent. The students were all assembled when I arrived. The for! about to be made, when we, the night before, but as the body' was uncovered, both started back in- voluntarily on beholding the face of the poor Ncwhavcn fisliwomau. I do not believe that any lesson of all Ireccived in that abandoned pro- fession, remains so indelibly fixed on my recollection, as the cool, criti- cal remarks and scientific demoti- strations of our learned professor. ‘Vth the lecture was over, Henry walked straight from the class-room toa hardware shop,wliere he accommodated himselfwith a file and chisel, and then requested me to accompany him to the lodgings of Carrol and Gorman, in order to re- quest their cto-operation in clearing up the mystery. ‘Carrol and German were, like ourselves, two Irish students; but not brothers. They were natives of Connaught ; tall, handsome, fearless fellows, who would go any length to serve a friend or follow a whim. We had studied Latin under the some teacher, namely, the priest of our parish, of whom the one was a sister’s, and the other a brother’s son. .So the good priest sent his nephews to college, and they were students of the second year; but, neverthe- less, the only persons on whom we could depend. ‘Both were at home, and after in- forming thcm of all we knew of the business, the young men at once agreed to proceed under our direc- tion to the cellar and up the narrow stair, whilst we entered the house in the usual manner and joined them from our bed-room; each of them profi'cring to bring a pair of pistols, a dark lantern, and an iron bar to force the door if it should be neces- sary. ‘ Wiser heads might have thought of applying to the city authorities, but Henry and I had been brought up in a country where the law was but little relied on,and our old school- fellows seemed -to us far less trouble- some assistants. ‘ The night had already fallen, and our friends having discussed a supper of oysters and a bottle of strong waters from Ireland, by way Ofpi'e- pai'ation for the business, set out with us to the Old close about half- past eight, as Henry was impatient, and they were no less so, to begin the work. We conducted them to the hidden door. All was darkness and silence within and without ; and leaving German vigorously filing at the bolt, while Carrol held the dark lantern, we returned to the legiti- mate mode of entrance and were soon in our own quarters. ' ‘ Things seemed as usual with theI family. Mrs. Duncan attended us' with her wonted civility. We 01*; dered tea, talked of drowsiness, and promulgated our resolution of retir- ing early ; and early enough we did retire into the bed-room, as soon as matters were quiet, having taken the precaution to pile against the outer door every article of furniture we found moveable, and then descend- ed to join our colleagues. ‘Henry had been up and down a dozen times already. Neither the file nor the chisel were spared on the iron. and yet the rusty bolt was fast. We stood in a close row, work- ing and listening by turns. for more than an hour. The staples were nearly filed through and the last ef- lieard the sound of a door opened: within, and alight streamed through. ‘ Henry and I were the nearest. Poor boy, he had worked hard! And, bending to a crevice from which he had cleared the dust, we saw beyond a large room strangely furnished. in the midst of which stood old Ross, with a still immovcable countenance, quietly holding a canâ€"5 die, in order to lightin the youngestl of the Dnncans, who came in cariv-l ing in his arms. as gently as a moth-l or might do her sleeping child, a, woman apparently dead or over-1 powered by some sudden fit, whom he proceeded to place on a bench at professor was there in his Operating up to the low arch in our own small bed-room. Our first effort was to costume, knife in hand. ‘chry and Iwere thinking of the further end of the room, beside husband with a large laucet in his, hand, the point of which he was de- liberately trying. I saw him step to-j wards the woman, and the light fclll full upon her face. when Henry bounded from beside me, seized Car- rol’s iron bar, which he had kept in readiness, and thrusting it under the old door with all his strength, Iic prized it Olfits hinges in a moment. ' In we rushed, German and Carâ€" rOl with pistols in hand. I with my still trusted poker, and Henry wield- ingr the bar. Isaw him make one lunge with it at the gentleman with the lancet, but the same instant the lights were atoncc extinguished, old Ross having blown out his candle,‘ and Carrol. who attempted to pre- vent his cscape, dropped his lantern, which was broken and trampled out in the scuflle. The trio took the Opportunity to make their escape. We heard them bang to and bar the door by which they had entered, and stood for a moment in the darkness, uncertain how to proceed ; but the voice of the woman, whom the noise seemed to have recalled to consious- ness, exclaiming, ‘ Let me out, I won't die here!’ armed poor Henry with sudden resolution. ‘ Follow me, friends.’ said he, ‘ and take care Ofyour feet on the stairsâ€"you may slip. but you can’t sti'ay.’ ‘And we did follow the sound of his voice and deep inspirations as he bore the half consoious woman all the way down that narrow stair. 'By the way, Gorman assisted, he happening to be nearest, at least the fellow used to boast that Henry owed more than his life to him. But we reached the cellar, and after- wards the close. thanks to a stray glimmer of gas light which guided us to the grate ; yet Iconld not con. isider the party safe till we reached the nearest tavern, where I discov- ed the lady to be Miss Ramsay. She was evidently labouring under the effects ofsome narcotic, which, how- ever, the night air and the shock of the strange occurrence, had in a great measure dissipated ; her words were still incoherent; but she en- trcated as earnestly to go and liber- ate her mother, who, she said, was still in the house. ‘ It was by this time twelve O‘clock, but We hastenel to give immediate information to the watch. The night guardians of Edinburgh were at this period by no means energetic; and it was not without great difficul- .ty that we could persuade half a dozen of them tO accompany us to the house, as they sodately remark- ed, to take an observation of the premises. As for the cellar and the staircase, not a man among them could be induced to take astcp in that direction; and Henry, who, after leaving Miss Ramsay safe, was more than Ordinarily valorous, call- ed them all Scotch cowards on the spot. ‘ They threatened to take him to the watch-house. Carrol knocked the first mcnaccr down, and a regu- lar battle com~uenced in the close, in which German and I took a toler- ably active part, and both powers were soon augmented by some Ofthe emigrant Irish residing in that quart- er whom the noise chanced to reach. The end of the matter was, that our party being victorious, the watch- men werc driven from the ground ; and as we heard them summoning their distant brethren, and the mob began to thicken, I persuaded Henry (for no persuasions would induce the other two) to leave the scene of ac- tion. ‘ After various applications, we at length collected a police force sulfi- cicnt to make good our entrance, and proceeded about daybreak to the Duncans‘ house. We found the out- er door a few inches Open. the whole flat much in the condition we had! left it, the smallest articles of furni- ture being still in their places, but the inhabitants. man, woman, and. child. were gone. ‘ In our own apartments nothing, had been touched ; but the secret passage which led from them to thc' which stood ’a large bason, and close behind him came Mrs. Duncan's cellar was not the only one in that oil house. Ina large back room. which seemed to have been unfurâ€" nished, though communicating with the apartments always occupied by the family, we found a small door and a narrow wooden staircase evi- dently ofmodei'n erection, which led down to a large room hung with old tapestry in the walled up flat. ‘ This storey. according to the fashion Ofa former age, contained the best rooms, bud after breaking a door which we found double lock- ed, a whole suite oftlicm, complete- ly furnished in the manner of the fifteenth century, was opened to our view ; the pictures. the mirrors, and the drapery, remained as they had been at the time the place was de- sorted ; but the windows were gra- ted outsidc, and their bars had grown rusty with time. Yet judge of our astonishmentwlicn we behold in the largest of these gloomy chambers, clothed in the identical black in which I had seen her last, and bending with a look 'Of solemn enthusiasm over a large bible. the pious Mrs. Ramsay. ‘ She raised her eyes as we enter- ed. and said with a most compluisant expression, ‘Ahl have you passed the Jordan too ’! Welcome to ctcrn al rcstl’ ' In short, readers, she was hope- lessly insane, and the singularity Of her delusion was, that the good lady firmly believed herself in the better part of the world to come. Certain- ly considering the locality ofher ac- tual habitation, the idea was suffi- ciently preposterous; but there she had been for the last six months. ‘ When Miss Ramsay was com- pletely recovered from the effects of that fearful night, she stated that at that period they had been induced to visit the Duncan's on the "pre- tence of settling some business re- garding her mother’s property, which the family had been in the habit Ofmannging, being distant rcâ€" lativ_cs to her deceased father ; and that while there they had been de- coycd into the walled up flat, where they had been ever since imprisoned, as she believed, for the purpose of securingithcir property ; her moth- er’s insanity, which every day in- creased, and at length took that peculiar form, being a considerable bar to her endeavours‘for their liber- ation- “ Regarding any other trahsac- tions of the family she knew noth- ing, and was wholly unconscious Of all that occurred till she felt her- self raised by Henry in the dark room. I have Observed that the girl though sensible, was naturally sim- ple, and only seventeen ; she is now the wife of my brother, who pcrse vered and acquired some distinction in the profession, which I abandon- ed for ever. “ Though all necessary steps were taken by the authorities, none Of the family were ever traced or apprehended ; and years after, when the terrible discoveries of Burke’s trial created so many rumours and suspicions against Professor R , I could not help remembering, thO’ Storey.” F. 13., Edinburgh.

A writer iii the London Times from St. Petersbnrg, says: > “ Such persons as wore on deck at the time, were of couise at once washed away, but the divers found no less than 1,100 corpses in the cabins ’twecn decks. and in the hold of the vessel, all clinging; to some portion of the timbers ofthe ship. or to each other. The horror of this fearful sight appears to have been aggra- vated by the circumstance that the bodies were already far gone in decomposition, and, with few exceptions, the eyes wet-«- wide open and glaring.
