A story of supernatural appearances to the Danish Royal Family at a certain c istle is told by a correspondent at Stockholm,. The original fabric was, it appears, demolished to get rid of the ghosts, but to no good p urpoee. It is stated that a month ago the Prince and Princess Royal of Denmark went to reside at the castle, and the very first night a chamber* lain was tossed out of his Led by the spirits. That evening a phantom appeared to the princess as she was writing in her boudoir,, where all the candles were lit. Prince Christian, the prince's eldest son, going to find something he wanted in a dark room, came back p lie and trembling, declaring that the room was full of men who barred his passage. The overling before they left the Royal Family weire playing at whist with the hereditary Prmce of Sweden, when he suddenly turned very pale and said that some unknown person had been beside him, who had suddenly disappeared. The Kumara Times says that sevoral people in Hokitika have been hard hit over tho New Zealand and River Plate Company. One gentleman is hit for L 150 0; another for LSOO, and a third for LSOO.
