A St. Louis Sensation?Excitement in
East St. Eonls Over aHftantcd 1Kotia?
A Child's Spirit and its Wonderful
Performances. ...
From the St. Loots Republican, January to.
r East St. Louis has a veritable sensation.
Not a criminal incident, nor an outre acci
dent. but a haunted house. It is not ex
actly in East. St. Louis, but near enough to
be easily accessible, and sufficiently pecu
liar in the character of its haunfcings to ex
cite a vast amount of comment, and even
no small amount of excitement.
The spirit-possessed mansion is situated
on the Belleville road, a little over two,
miles from East St. Louis. It is a small
frame house, on what is known as the Rob
bineaux farm, and is occupied by Mr. V.
Bennett and family, and is a little with
drawn from the rood. It is now some time
ago since the first alleged spiritual mani
festations occurred, hut more recently the
noises and voices have grown louder and
more frequent, until the fame thereof has
run throughout St. Clair county and fur
ther.
The producing cause of all the commo
tion is said to be the spirit of a little girl in
blue who, or which, is frequently visible to
a little girl of* Mr. Bennett's family. A
curious feature of the affair is that the ope
rations of the spirit or spirits are not con
fined to the night, but occur in open day.
Coats and.other garments hung on hooks in
the wall are seen suddenly to drop to the
ground ; then again they will move slowly
up again and regain their position on the
hook. Noises are heard, scratching noises,
as if a child's finger tips were being drawn
over the dry plaster of the coiling and
walls. Disturbances will be heard in the
garret, but on running up there it is found
empty and silent. A child's voice is re
ported to be often heard?a merry voice,
suggestive of mischievous pranks. Nay,
more, it is firmly alleged that the voice an
swers questions?not difficult queries, but
such na could be answered by any ordinary
young gill.
Sometimes the voice is a faint elfin
whisper, then again more clearly a genuine
?roce
human v^ce. It will keep up a dialogue
sometimes, and at others will only speak in
sentences and be audible to particular per
sons. This saucy spirit,however, goes fur
ther and pulls the children's dresses and
disturbs furniture. On Friday, as is re
ported, one of the little girls was coming
in from the well, and could hardly get
along, owing to " the way the thing was
pulling me."
As above indicated, one of the family, a
little girl, averB that she sees the spirit. It
is tliat of a little girl about twelve years of
age, dressed in a blue merino frock, with
furs, and wearing a bonnet and cloak.
Numbers of people from East St. Louis
and vicinity have visited the house, aild all
come away amazed with the wonder. Among
others it is said Father Zafccl, of the Catho
lic Institute, was called to the house on
Thursday, and expressed the opinion that
it was .an evil spirit. A special reporter
dispatched to the 6cenc became unnerved,
and could only furnish disjointed memo
randa of his visit. ? Yesterday Colonel Jar
volt, Mayor of East St. Louis, proceeded to
the house with several other gentlemen.
They returned home convinced there was
something in it. Here are some notes of
one of the party :
Leaving the city of Illinoistown in our
rear wc took an easterly course from the
turnpike, and soon discovered the house
occupied by a Mr. Vital Bennett. The house
is one of those rural edifices which may be
seen in ail farming communities throughout
the State of Illinois. We passed through a
narrow gate, and were soon greeted by the
fierce bark of the faithful watch Jog, who
seemed disposed to dispute our passage.
The house is a small frame building,
composed of two rooms and a garret over
head. We were greeted at the door by a
sweet little girl of twelve summers, who
said, " Come in, gentlemen, and see the
spirit." Taking a seat in the neatly fur
nished parlor, and feeling ourselves at
home, we laid our things outside and hung
our outer garments on a nail. Engaged for
a moment, we turned around, and our gar
ments had disappeared.
What has become of them ? No one
could tell; only they are gone. Entering
into a conversation "with the spirit," we
were told who we were, where we came
from, and what our business was. Little
Hattie, the child of Mr. Bennett, is the
only person who can see the wonderful
spectre, whom she defines as being a child
of, apparently, about twelve years of age,
dressed in a blue merino frock, with furs,
bonnet, and cloak. .Clothes, articles of fur
niture, barrels of flour, and, in fact, every
movable object within the house, has been
removed from its position. Doors are opened,
unhung, and removed; lights blown out are
relighted, garments on the family are re
peatedly pulled and handled, and some
thing is awaiting a demonstration; and
Here our communication breaks oft.
Such being the position of matters, no
doubt the house will he haunted by hosts
of visitors. The family is described as a
simple, rural household, and totally una
ble to understand the so-called manifesta
tions themselves. 1 During to-day it-is said
quite a large party will visit Mr. Bennett's
from EuBt St. Louis.
. An explanation of a haunted house can
generally be found other than that furnish
ed by the lovers of the marvellous and su
pernatural ; but in the mean time the house
on the Belleville road promises to become
as famous as the house at Waterdown. A
child's spirit in blue; laughing, talking,
pulling one's clothes, rattling furniture,
blowing out lights and relighting them
again with its pretty little fiery, electric
lips. Here's a sensation that should awake
all the curiosity of St. Louis spiritualists,
and which beats Harper's Magazine story
all to nothing.
We await further developments.
The Migration of Fish.?-Attention has
recently been directed to the appearance of
a new and strange fish in the waters of
Lake Ontario, Seneca Lake, and other lakes
in the interior of New York State. Speci
mens were sent to Professor Agoaeiz, who
pronounced the fish to be a "fresh water
alewife," but did not attempt to account for
its presence in the lakes, fit, however, was
supposed that the fiBh had come into the
lakes from the Atlantic, by way of the St.
Lawrence, and this theory has been con
firmed from the fact that Professor Seth
Greene baB just discovered the same fish in
Chesapeake Bay, where it is known under
different names; at Baltimore, as bryn
shad or mud shad, and at Norfolk a?j
the gizzard .shad, from its having a
musonlar stomach like the gizzard of a
bird. Professor Greene is satisfied that
the fish in the New York lakes are of pre
cisely the Bame species as those in the Ches
apeake Bay, and have made their way'up
the St. Lawrence, and then by the oanals
and rivers into the interior lakes. Seneca
Lake abounds with large shoals- of these
fish, weighing noarly two pounds. On

Meeting of Mechanics.?A meeting of
the mechanics of the city was held yester
day evening at the Mechanics Exchange to
deliberate upon measures necessary to in

Mr. W. A. Forbes was called to the chair,
and Mr. Leroy A. Crenshaw made secretary.
Mr. Asa Snyder thought that the recnact
ment of the old lien law, which had expired
by limitation, would accomplish the object
desired. It had worked satisfactorily to all
parties concerned while in operation, and
the Legislature would doubtless renew it if
memorialized on the subject.
Mr. Robert Crump had heard it said that
that law was defective in qwne respects. It
would be bettor to examine those in opera
tion in northern cities, and get the best one
enacted that could bo had. He would
move the appointment of a committee to
examine the subject thoroughly and io pre
pare a memorial containing the necessary
recommendations. They could report to a
subsequent meeting, and have everything
ready before the Legislature assembled.
Mr. John Gifcon said that the old law
had been drawn up by Judge Ould, and
had been tested in several instances before
the courts. If not perfect, it was certainly
a very good one. Still, if a better one
could be framed he should be glad.
Mr. Crump's motion was put, and
adopted.
The Chairman appointed Messrs. Asa
Snyder, John Gilson, Nathan D. Hardgrove,
Robert Crump, and Leroy A. Crenshaw, a
committee; and they were instructed to re
port at a meeting wbi$li is to be held on
Monday night next.
The meeting then adjourned.

^ A Judge or Northern- Birth Compli
ments Virginia Juries.?In discharging
the petit jurors of the Hustings Court yes
terday, Judge Brainhall took occasion to
eulogize them for fairness and impartiality
in the discharge of their duties. lie said
that he was convinced after an experience
of months that that unfortunate class of
persons?the f reedmen in our midst?risked
nothing in throwing themselves for justice
upon their white fellow-citizens. Now that
he was probably on the eve of severing his
connection with the judiciary, he felt it his
duty to place on record this tribute to the
people or his adopted State, and wherever
he might go he would carry with him a
lively recollection of the disposition shown
by those Virginians with whom he came
officially in contact, to act without preju
dice against race or color.
Judge Bramhall is, we believe, a native
of New York, a judge by military appoint
ment, and is Radical in politics. We have
not a full report of the remarks, but they
were to this effect.

THE ASSIGNEE'S DEFENCE.
\ * t ' -r - : *
JU|>G|! UNDERWOOD URGES PEACE.
i)
INVESTIGATION POSTPONED.
Judge Underwood sat in chambers yes
terday to investigate the charges made by
Hlrajn G. Bond against Andrew Ruther
glen. assignee. Mr. Bond was represented
by General fl. H. Wells, and Mr. Ruther
glen by Judge W. W. Crump and Colonel
JohriH. Guy.
Colonel Guy, on bebalf of the defendant,
submitted to the court the following de
tailed reply to the charges of the register:
In the District Court of the United States
for the District of Virginia, in the matter
of Hiram G. Bond against Andrew Ru
therglen :
To the Hon. John. C. Underwood,
?Judge of said District Court:
Answer of Andrew Rutherglen to the Spe
cifications of Hiram G. Bond, Register
in Bankruptcy. *
First charge: That Mr. Rutherglen has
not furnished bonds as assignee, as required
by law.
Answer: Respondent has filed a bond as
security, satisfactory to his Honor Judge
Undferwood, who# under section 13 of the
Bankrupt Act, is alone authorized to require
a bond as security from an assignee. (In
re Dean, 1 B. R. 26.)
Second charge; That he had not made
reports as assignee, according to law.|
Answer: The Register in Bankruptcy is
ordered-by section 14, "That so soon as
Baid assignee is appointed and qualified,"
that he shall, " by an instrument under his
hand, assign and convey to the assignee all
the estate, real and personal, of the bank
rupt# &c.; that in so far as respondent is
concerned he has only received from Regis
ter Bond eighty-five assignments in respect1
of upwards of five hundred bankruptcies in
which he has been appointed assignee by
thiB Court; that the Register is further re
quired by section 4 of the act "to furnish
the asssignee with a certified copy of such
orders, and of the schedules of creditors,
and assets, filed in each case"; that the
said Register has not so furnished respon
dent-with such copies, although a reference
to his docket will show that he has never in
any case failed to charge for them, as if
they had been furnished, and hence re
spondent has been unable to discharge his
duties in terms of law.
Third charge: That he had not deposited
the money received as assiguee in the First
National Bauk, as required by the rales of
of the Court.
Answer: Denied; but explained that re
spondent has sold under the orders of the
Judge of this Court of dates 17th and 31st
August, 1869, various of the properties
therein designuted?reports of the sale of
all which will be presented, along with evi
dence of the disposal of the proceeds of the
sales to your Honor on Saturday, the 5th
day of -February current.
Fourth charge : That he had paid away
the money received for the sale of encum
bered estates without making a report to
the Court or Register.
Answer: Denied.
Fifth charge : That he had not complied
with the 28th rule of the Court, requiring
assignees to transmit to the Clerk of the
Court a memorandum showing the names
of the creditors, their places of residence,
etc.
Answer: Denied: but explained that in
reBpect of the Register's dereliction of duty
in not transmitting the respondent the
proofs ol debt filed in his othce in terms
of section 22, it was impossible for respon
dent to make returns to the Clerk of Court,
which said rule requires to be done in " all
cnscs in which proofs of debt have been
previously furnished the assignee."
After the reading of this document, Judge
Underwood said he had not time at present
to investigate these charges. He thought
the assignee had misapprehended his duty
to the creditors. He should make his re
turns to the Register. The court thought,
too, that Mr. Rutherglen had assumed
power not belonging to him in settling him
self the priority of claims. This was not
hiB province, although he doubtless thought
this was the proper construction of law.
The Register should decide such matters,
and if there was dissatisfaction witlx his
decision, the creditors might appeal to the
Court.
* Judge Crump (interrupting) said Mr.
Rutherglen had not undertaken to settle
any legal questions.
The Court: Ho has made payments, and
hereafter these irregularities must be cor
rected, and the forms of law strictly com
plied with. As to the bond of the assignee,
he has filed a good one with ample security
for $5,000, but Mr. Rutherglen is mis
taken in saying that the court pro
nounced it sufficient. We said it was a good
bond. Hereafter let it be understood that
if the assignee pays out money, it must be
under the direction of the Register or the
Court. ?ot having time to go into the case
now, I shall not proceed with it until my
return, three weeks hence; by which time
I shall expect from the assignee a full re
port of his transactions; and that every
thing will be straightened, I have no doubt.
In conclusion, Judge Underwood sail
there must not exist such a deplorable state
of feeling between the officers of the court
its that they cannot report to each other.
?They should let "by-gones be by-gones.;'
Mr. Bond here said that if Mr. Ruther
glen was willing to report to him as re
quired by law, lie waa perfectly willing to
withdraw the charges and allow him to act
as assignee; '
Mr. Rutherglen was# about* to explain
what moneys he had paid out, when Judge
Underwood interrupted him, saying!
"Well, I think we understand each other
now. You have as a general thing done
right." 6
Judge Crump said his Honor did not
seem to be informed of the facts in the case.
The Register has certainly often failed to
discharge his duties.
Judge Underwood: Perhaps not, in eome
instances.
Judge Crump: In many instances; in
hundreds of cases.
Mr. Wells rejoined that he thought the
Register had discharged his duty faith
fully, and had shown praiseworthy forbear,
ance in regard to the assignees.
Judge Underwood said that several as
signees had been delinquent, and seemed
very ignorant of their duties, but he did
riot* think there had been any loss there
from.
Mr. Bond said there was not a single in
stance in which the assignments have not
been made out and delivered to the as
signee. He may, however, have mislaid
them.
Mr. Wells suggested that the law re
quired not a bond in gross from the as
signee, but in every case a eeparnte bond,
and that the Register had a nght to with
hold the assignment if the bond was not
given..
Mr. Rutherglen desired to say, before tbo
case vrts adjourned,?in reply to the charge
made by Mr. Bond yesterday that he
(Rutherglen) had " received, in the case of
one Turnbull, of Brunswick county, $3,000,
and had made no return nor had he de
ported the funds in bank," according to
lawi?that the charge was an " unmitigated
falsehood"; that he held in his bands
[and ^ here exhibited {hern to ib? court} the
dishonored notes of the purchaser.; that
he had paid out more than he had received
from, the estate; that he had paid Bond
akiiQ sixty-odd dollars. *
xSr. Hutberglen'further said that he hod
paid the State. Journal alone, out; of hie
own pocket, over $2*000 for advening
sales under orders of the Court; for winch
he had not been reimbursed. '
This called up Mr. lkmd; who declared
he knew nothing personally of the charge,
and had only alluded to It as a' rumor, .t -
Judge Crump remarked that it would be
found, upon examination,.. that al? the
charges would be as easily digprdren.
Mr. Rutherglen suggested that his chartrea
against Mr. Bond be how taken up.
The Court : We will adjourn all these
matters until my return.
So nothing further .was done. ...
