Singular circumstance.

--On Wednesday night last, a party of gentlemen, while returning to their homes in Sidney, about 4 o'clock in the morning discovered a dray loaded with what they had reason to judge from appearances, to be a coffin, coming from the direction of Hollywood Cemetery. The hour was too soon to leave the impression that the drayman was in the pursuit of his ordinary avocation, but unfortunately they did not stop the fellow and examine his cargo. Has any grave been violated in that direction lately?
