Soul ¿ttrjine.

. Th* Popular S e lm a Monthly presents ■on» ourlons incident* lui connection with "Son! B arring." Whenever an Ahètmaîan Is drowned bis friends search carefully for- f t* body, bu t If this la no t found, they pro­ceed to oaptura tha soul of the deceased, a measure which then fas* become a m atter of importance. A goatskin bag Is sprinkled w lt t water and pjaced with its mouth, which is stretched open over a hoop, look­ing towards the river, near the pla ce w he re the man Is supposed to have been dro wned. Two cords are stretched from the spot across the river as a bridge on which the ■oui ceil come over. Vessels containing food and di Ink are set around the akin, and the friends o f the deceased come and eat quietly, while a song Is sur g w ith Instru­mental accompaniments.

The soul. It is believed, Is attracted by the cetemoniee, comes over on the bridge th a t Is laid for It, and goes Into the'trap. As soon as It la en te red -thu t Is, .when the bag la Inflated by the breeze—the opening is quietly closed, and th ebag Is taken up to the burial place, where a gravtf has already boon prepared. The bag Is held w ith the the opening to the grave, the strings are untied, and th e b a g - ie squeezed Into the grave, and the burial is afterwards complet­ed. ■ This rite Is considered of equivalent value w ith the burial of the body, aud the grave Is treated with the eame honor no ir the body were really within it.--

Trinity Church, h. J , Furnish*» Another Defaulter.

Frederick A. Palmer, City Auditor of Newark, N. J , hits confessed that he em­bezzled ÔI2S 000 ot the oily funds. H is con­fession is decidedly cool. Hesaye;

“ I bave embezzled large amounts of the oily funds. I have surrendered myself trto the hands of the iflicera of the law, and am now lodged lu the county Jail. These frauds were committed mainly in the years 1678, 1630, and 1681. nnd amount to a sont prob­ably of SIM ooo. T hat the ends of justice may be speedily reaohtd, I hope for the im­mediate examination of there years, that with the old of my olHce assistant, enough Items may be found to seoure my sentence.I deBfre to say very emphatically that these frauds have been committed without the aid, knowledge, connivnooe, or assistance of any person whatever. I t Is useless for me to speak of my ruined life; of the stain on all who knqw or care for me. lexpectonly exact jostles, but ask th a t It mav soon be reached."

Palmer and Baldwin (also a defaulter to the extent ot *2,000.000) were botb members of Trinity Church.

“ I ’ve lived and loved,’’ said an nnhsppy old maid. "When I was young, Dr. Eensoa’s Skin Cure, fur teller, eczema, sod pimples < the face, was not lo be bought. As I had rough skin, 1 kept out of company and s: now on old maid.

The IbIesI Instance of this purported correction of my errors Is contain­ed in a card of S. D. Wilton to the Jo ra n s i of Sec 3rd, In which he attempts to pointor Alee ore, 111 waiwi rn micinpua iu point uuivurioni-miiatalemenU ol mine concerning Jesus—every one of his statements thereon being erroneous.

In determining the true character of Je­sus, his real words and deeds, great care has to bo Isken in separating the legendary and mythical Imm the actual and historical Tak­ing tto New Testament u ItstandsuaU aiika reliable and tree, a very fa’eeesiicnstc la made of the man of Nazareth. The Idealized Christ, the fictitious bailor, largely obscures the man Jesus. There are many things attributed to Jesus in the book, which he never said or did; and In judging who and what Joins was, and what the gist of his teachings all theea have to be rigorously «eluded. During the last fifty yens the Bible baa been scFentiacally anal}led. andlla several pans rationally dis­criminated, by lbs best scholarship ol the world, and as regards the principal facta In tha life of Jeans, and In early Christianity, the “cottaetiBBa o! the competent" (the general oonsent ol the "experts'' in rational biblical Criticism] has virtually decided as to what- is certainly true, what fa certatnly false, and what is doubtful. For nine years past I have been a careful aludeat of the scholarship of the world on all points hearing on the evolu­tion of primitive Christianity, and it is amus­ing to have a person like Bro. Wilson (who no doubt means well enough end probably la a moat worthy man), who to In the densestigno- rance as regards toeresults of this scholarship, and probably knows nothing even of the ex­istence of sold scholarship—to have our brother ••coneol’'m y "errors" and ignorance

'In tho matter of New Testament his'cry, etc Why. bless your soul good brother Wilson, I am laminar with every line ol the four gospels, and the rad lts ol Impartial rational criticism as to Its folstiy or truth. In speaking of the , real- not the Ideal- Jeans, 1 omit everything., -j based on that part of tbe Testament demnit- , tin ted to be unreliable, and make llule usc.of that known to be doubtful There is much that la true and reliable tn the Bible, a- d in speak­ing of matters of tact I always confine myself to these, aa illustrated end Interpreted hytbo facts of enlightened biblical science. Bibit cal acleoce.jj as mneb a Iron science as any other department of knowledge, and no one can form n lest estimate ot the contents of tbe book without on acquaintance with the results of its scientific examination., Tbe b u t pop. utar presentation of Urn subject, I think, is Oort and Hooykaas'a • Bible for learn Era," 3 volumes; Boston: Roberta Brothers. T hills the best book on the Bible ever published for the general reader,sad glvte cce a . clearer knowledge of the Bible in all 11b parte than any other one hook All.too so-called "orrera" ot mine relcrred to by Mr Wilson arc In strict accordance with anlento biblical exegesis, and

held aa demonstrated facts by the ablestbibliciele of tbe world.

One of tbe demonstrated facia In New Tes­tament literature la that tbe gospel of John (sfepalled) Is wholly unreliable—ie a fiction throughout, a romance written probably over n htttfdred yea» after the death of Christ, somewhere between A. D. 150 and A. D. 180. and falsely attributed lo tho apostle John to give it enrrency .with the masses, which It soon obtained. Its history is almost wholly false, and the speeches of Jesus pore fabrica­tions of tbe writer, buth history and speeches being written to embody the author'a Ideal of wbat Jet ns ought to have said and donp.se cording to hie conception of him as'the Di. vine Logos, the incarnate Word. Except perhaps the story or the woman lakes in adul­tery which is en interpolation wriilen by another hand than the pseudo John, and may voice as authentic Incident In Jesus’s life—ex­cept this, no reliance can he placed on any­thing in the Gospel or John. Jeans never talked in the manner ‘'John" makes him apeak nil through his gospel. In tho tint' three gospels-the synoptics—we-have many authentic teachings of Jesus, and it la a pay. ehciogical impossibility for a man speaking as Jem* does In the Bynoptlca to have spoken at the same time the balderdash in John. In the Synoptics Jesns uses uarables constantly; in John not t single parable la lousd; In the lint, Jeaua coals out devils frequently; In the

sense, his discourses being almost wholly de­voted to self glorification of a most offensive character, bis fow allusions to moral duties being of a far lower type then those lo tho Synoptics. T hen Is no metaphysics or spec dative philosophy bt the Bynoptlca; In John tbewholnbook Is nmetaphysical disquisition on the Logs» or Woid.the office and nottue of Christ, the Son of God. Id the Bynoptlca Jeans never nssn the term “Son or God" In speaking of himself; hot ulwttye the "Ben cf Mani" & John be speak» Incessantly or him-' self os the Son of God, Its the SynopUe* Jesus labored mostly In Galilee and never stame to Judes till just before Us oroclfixlon; In John, the greater parrot Jesus's labors are In Jndea, with occasional Intermissions In Gal Resi I& the Bynoptlca Jesus's ministry was oonflned.to one yew: in John, It lo certainly

Mr Wilson denies my statement that Jesus did not propose to be the founder of a new religion, his teachlne* being based on the Judaism of the day. and bays that Jesus

Ereached over Palestine a new religion, ueenr- ig m»oy followers Wbat did Jcsos preach t

Not a new.religion, bat, the speedy advent of the coming Messiah, who would establish hi* kingdom on earth in that generation and as a preparative for thi* Messianic kingdom he urged repentance *cd the practice of moral virtue- J«bu the Bapilst, taught the same, and Jeaua look up John's work, though in a different spirit, after John was imprisoned. Neither John nor J esus taught anew religion, their ibfolo.y being all contained in tho cur-, cent Judstom. Jesus selected certain portions and emphasised them more than others, but there was umbing absoluiely new in any of his teachings, except perhaps in some of his more extravagant and hyperbolical injunc­tions. Jeans went over Galileo as a prophet of Judaism like Klijal,elc.no) as tbe rounder of a new niietcu and after be proclaimed himself the Messiah. li tm u eucb be had follower*, not sssteacher of anew religion. A puriBed Judaism was wbat ho sought to es­tablish tn anticipation of the speed) setting up of tie Messiah's kfflWotn at Jerusalem.

Mr Wilson denies mat Jesus derived any of his teachings from the Talmudic writings, end even rashly asserts tbit be never read those writings, so for ss toy evidence of that fact Is concerned, Mr. Wilson here simply talks nonsense. He writes on a subject of which he is in complete ignorance. Uo ovl. deotly knows nothing of the Talmud—it is doubtful if he even knows wbat the Tslmud to or ever ssw a sentence from R And yet he presumes to spenk dogmatically on the con­nection of Jesus with the Tainted. What does he know shoot whether Jesus over read the Talmud or sol? Has he examined the evidence» In fact he does cot koow that there it any evidence, denying as he docs, the

'existence of .neb evidence. To him I would say ss Prof. Denton said to Mr 0 . A. Phelps, the materialist who denied at Bismtrk. Kan­sas. the existence of spiritual phenomena witnessed by Mr. Denton; “Tour ignorance is not the gauge of my knowledge." Because you are ignorant you must not imagine every­body else Is also Ignorant, brother Wilson, To him I commend the following extracts from n lecture hy Rev. Johu W. Chadwick, the author of an excellent work no "The Mon Jesus" just published; “The Jewish Talmud

. .. is the laboratory in which wo see that process going on or mixture, alteration, com­bination which rendted In the Now Testa- meat teachings and in the earliest triumphs or 'he Christian fsllh . . .o f all ihe rabbis, Hlllei was perbxp», tbe greatest teacher. Ee was president of the greet synagogue at Jeru­salem, and did not die till Jesus was already, ten yea» of age. The Sermon on the Mount might all, wlib hut very slight exceptions, have fallen from his Ups The Golden Ruin, en oftrn spoken of as original with Christian.ity, was one of his maxims---- Schools flour.toned throeehout the length and breadth of the laud- Education had been made compul­sory. [Atthat time public schools died diedwith hardly anything else but religloo.)----Jesus, then, must have been Instructed in tho learning of the rabbis'. Tbe great name of -Hlllei most have been familiar to him; his wise end tender sayings must have been daily Bounded tn his ears. We never get so near to Jesus os la the discourses in Matthew, and these discourses ore remarkably similar to the rabbinic teachings of the time, as we discover them in the Talmnd: tho Ideas ere ihe seme, the words era the same. ¡"Nature! Origin ofChristianity." pp. 24th. 87th. S8tb, S8th and SOthp See also Deutech’a essays on the Tal­mud in his “Literary Remains;“ Liehtfoot’s “Horm Talmudicte," passim; HcnneH’s ' Ori­gin of Christianity, chapter xvii, elc. 1 would advise Mr. Wilson lo drop writing about the Talmud till he learns a little more about It thin he now docs.

Mr. Wilson says Jesus's teachings were not based on current Judaism, else he would not have told Hleedemus he must be born again, etc. This to another sample of our brolber's ignorance. The docirine of being boro again was well know in rabbinical Judaism at that time, and John only puts in Jesus's month an expression in current use with tho Jews of hie time,and John's gospel says ss much; for when Nieodemus said he did not understand Jesns. then Jesus gnswered him, "Art then the teacher of Israel, and undcratandeth not these things!' (Reviled version)—that [a, “ere you a rabbi and yet do not understand one or your own common precepts »"'Besides this In­terview of Nioodemus with Jesus is no doubt imaginary, being found only in Jehu's ro­mance. Nicodemus is entirely unknown to the other gospels, and John makes him a com-, panion o f Joseph ot Arimsthos in burying'

;Je*n«, whereas Joseph alone to named byjba blbe» The Talmud frequently mentions a Nicodemus [Kqdimus] accounted one of the three richest, tneu among the Jewswhen Tiles beaelged Jerusalem; and this is supposed to have bcCn the man mentioned in John’s gos­pel (TasnUh.rcl.SOff; Sanhedrin, fill. 48ff)

Mr. Wilson quotes from John's gospel lo ■how that Jesus claimed to be equal with.God and taught hto own pre-existence. The whole of what he quotes to fiction; Jesus never ut­tered a word of I t Jesus denied being God, and never hinted such n thing as his absolute divinity, according to the Synoptics, and In John be is inferior and subordinate to the Father, deriving nil his power from the Father. Nat a word coo be found In tbe Bynoptlca about Jesus’* preuxiilencn end no authentic record exists of hto ever broaching such no unleash!« claim. Even if he hod so asserted. It would hate been simply a foolish fancy de­void of substantial truth. Fie existence bo- rore conception os aa individuality is one of the most absurd vagaries of uobotanced inlet, lecto, sod U a million Jeanses had taught It it would he none the leas absurd. But there to not the least probability that Jesus ever bad such so idea.

Mr. Wilson says; “Jesns laid Ihsl ho came to bring life and ImmoriaHty to light through the gospel’1 Jesus never said anything of tic k iu t No such passage can be found iu Jesus's teachings. I t to found in I I Timothy i:10, ss the Idea or the writer or the Eptotle. This epistle to a spurious production, written •bout A. D. 113 or 120, in Paul’s name, fifty yes» after Paul's death; and It dost not con­tain J esus's words bat the ideas of the un­known writer.

Mr. Wilson also tails iu Jesns taught hit Jewish brethren that Urn blood of bubs end gestoebuld never take aw n aim." Another blunder of our brolher’a. Nolblng of tho jrind appears anywhere in Jesus's teachings. This passage to found In Hebrews, x ;f, pn uuony-

mous epistle by an unknown author, contain­ing not lie words of Jesus, bnt the speculn- tlous of tia writer. There is not a word is Jesos’s teachings against Ihnsacrlflcial system of the Jews Iu vqgue doring bis life time. Ho went to Jerusalem7to attend tho pnasover feast, and ate tho pasaover supper with his disciples like all ether pious Jew* The temple la Jerusalem was tbe great seat o f sacrifice, where animals were constantly slaughtered for the remission of ale* Jesus had tha same superstition! rtNcrooce for this holv nlsughter-

Ho eald nothing, though against the system of sacrificing animals In its holy precincts, tho principal service to which it was devoted. Jesus’s zealous devotion to the temple purifi­cation proves bis endorsement of the temple service, the sacrificial system. Again Jesus in tha oldest and most reliable gospol.Matthow, says he came not to destroy the law and the prophets, ior till heaven and e« lb pass away, not one jot or not one tittle of the law should pass away till all be accomplished. More­over. he told his disciples to do end observe whatever the 8cribea and Pbarteees bade thorn, because they sit on Moses's seal, that la, yield Implicit obedience to tbe Mosaic law, of nhioh law sacrifices were tbe Inndnmenial base. After Ihe death of Jeaua the twelvo apoeilca were sirlct observers of tha law. acd reqnired all believers to Jesus to conform to ita re­quirements, including circumcision. Paul, however, struck out in a new field repudi­ated the whole law, and declared Christiana were absolved from its requirements, Paul,

far as known, cover saw Jesus iu tbe fiesh

anosilesheaded by James, tho brother ol .leeas. the head or thei JewlaU Christian Oburoh at Jerusalem, whom tradition telle us wa» one of tbe strictest observe» of the Moeaic law. If Jesus taught tbe abrogation of tbe Mosaic law, bow was it that his immediate disciples and followers required it* observance In too ism s of Jesus, and refused tq admit 'Gentile con­verts unlesB they became strict Jews in all respeclaT /From this It Is certain that Peter. James, John, and the twelve had never heard Jesns say aoght against the aacrlflol»l system of Judea, clrcnmelslon, etc. i t la to Psn l'not J esui, we owe the abrogation of the law; and in this respect Paul was far superior to hla master Jesus. It was to Paul's Influence that the writer of Hebrews opposed sacrificing ••bulls and goats." Jesus had nothing lo do with i l

Mr. Wilson says that thOBC who sen the most faults in Jeaua and hla teachings generally know tho least in regard to him. There la

Spiritualism is the only remedy against Materialism In all its forms t and medlumshlp is the only means through which it can he demonstrated and a ilvlug revelation main­tained. While there le moch to criticise and outgrow, our atm should bo to make the best use or these pssaivo agents, and not to abuse them because they aro human and therefore weak and liable to err.

To thu Editor of tha Hr ;!o*c[ib!cal Jooras! ;Bpirltualtem bea but one important adver­

sary, Materialism le Ite'only coomstent oppo­nent. The groat battle ol the century is be­tween these two. All the force of theology W froth, except Ihe materialism which ltendorses and carries into Ihe co olile). Us affirmations of diabolism, divine wrath, biblical authority, eternal woe and other dogmas b ave little weight bt the balance against our facte and tbe Btero ingle of nature. But when Ite votsriea drop these mythological assumptions and chins at tts with the texts of icience and tho authority of modern school men, in which matter to de­ified and eternal silence broods over the hopes of post mortem life, affirming the “Ufo that now It," and denying ail other which Is not subject lo Its laws and discoveries, they, loo, become somewhat formidable. But it la only in the proportion that they become Matèrial­iste that they are alroDg against us. Accord­ingly they have for tbe post thirty four years courted mateil olismastheironly armor against our iiicl/. Affirming Immortality, they rest all on faith end tho authority of tho contra­dictory revelations of post egea ; and to recaps the application of thetr faith to present revel­ation, they assume that the ancient record wan miraculously given, end eli the experiences that coDfirm them were especial manifestations or divine power and InierpoeHlcn, limited to a particular people end nge, and thafslnee then the hooka ere closed end sealed, and wo are reqnired to •’believe or be damned " With this acolcut osato of Spiritualism in the deserl ot Materialism Urey Uy lo soothe Ihe mourner 'end brace against doubt in the face of modern science end a rapidly growing ekeptlotom. I am aware that they are now in a transition and already eregrarolng etthespiritual ''btraws’’ to cave them from drowning in the ocean of scientific Material Ism. Bnt all the available weapons they have riga last the facte end brood ■ phlloeophy-of Bplrlluellsm, they must borrow from materialism.

.While we view tbe recent discussions lu tbe English Church Congress as a hopeful sign of the times, and index of the power of Spirit­ualism In tho world, we need not credit much to (he liberal iotenliocs of the clergy. They hate us and our phlloeophy. because they know it aubverte their creeds, and must destroy their pet theories and expose their Idolatry. Bnt they want to evali themselves of tha tuo of our foots as tho only moons with which to meet the scientific objections to their faith in immor­tality. I f Ibey are driven to the well on title one point, all tho rest of their theology falle at enee; forwbsl would be tbavnlne of vicarious atonement, a pcrioonl devil, heaven i and hall, the final Judgment, etc., i f "death ends .all?’1 Bnt oar facte arc free,, and wo may rejoice that tha choroh-to beginning to’feol that they are worthy of eceleerMtiosr recognition.

Theology in the Pabilo Schools.

Bishop Coxe In an article on the above subject In the North American Rtrelea, ve­hemently deprecates the Introduction of theology Into the public schools, but urges the maintaliance of the Bible therein. He thinks each religionist should teach his own children such tenets as he believes, but all children ehould be educated in the knowledge of the Bible "apart from dog­ma, aa the surest foundation, not only of a good moral character, hu t also of a fam iliar acquaintance w ith the English language. Tbe Bible, a s a classic and aa the base of all onr social and moral ideas, and not In any sense os the text-book of a formal creed, Is thus honored and accepted among ua. No­body who clalma an English education can bo Ignorant of this book; It Is tbe corner atone o f our. language and literature; pad as I have said, tbe question la no t about bringing It as a novel and untried experi­m en t,ba t about thrusting I t out in disgrace after centuries of happy experience of Us Importance."

There la an amazing insolence in tbe pre­sumption of tb ls paragraph. I t la fa r from admitted th a t the Bible Is the "corner stone" of our language, or that literature has been greatly benefited thereby. There are enbllme passages la tbe Bible; there are tru tb s beautifully expressed, b u t where In all Its pages does I t present any tru th not well known before to mankind f These Bible maniacs talk as I t tro th was locked np In tbe lids of the book, and if It was thrown aside, tro th would perish from the souls of men. Let ua go back of the mere words of those who so earnest-

v ly demand tbe reading of the. Bible in the schools, and we shall Bud th a t i t Is ncib, fo r the benefit of their own chil­dren, b u t or somebodya else. This wbole scheme Is exposed by Bishop Coxe, Inad­vertently In tbe quoted passage, where he says tha t he does not w antdegm ssor creeds taught. Why? Because tha t would not serve t i e purpose. The Frotestant church Is not a un it like the Catholic. - Iff It was, and held to a firm and compact system of faith , It would as strenuously.nrgevtba t it be taught In the public schools as It now does th a t the Bible shall be. In New E n­gland when there was b u t one ruling church, tbe shorter catechism was method­ically th rust Into the mind of every child, w ith all the blighting influenoa of Us nar­row and grotesque conception of man, nature and God. ' B u t now, teaching Pres-, bytBrian dogmas means teu b ln g Methodist dogmas, and Baptist and U nitarian—of the’ UnlveisallBt, Episcopalian,and a ll other lteo and Isms, and so the dog in the manger pol- IcrTSVif mine cannot be taught, none shall be.’’ To the Bible there can he no aneh ob­jection ; i t la a sacred book and their true guide. I f this be enffloleutly Instilled Into tb s mind of tbe child, tbe dogma will come as a later,but dependent growth.

Now It may be asked, i f each sect Is ad­vised to take the dogmatiq training of Its children into Its own bs^ds, or If th is to relegated to the parents,why not allow each to give e t tb a t tim e so much of Bible read­ing as is deemed useful and necessary ? Tbe answer Is fam ished In the -quoted trans­pa ren t paragraph. The Bible Is planed in th e schools for t i e benefit.mot o f the chil­dren of church members, b a t for the chit- d ril l o f unbelievers and infidels who do not w ish the ir children to have the foundation o f belief In dogates laid by reading the Bi­ble. On those It m ust be forced, willing or .ansriilipg., because I t furnishes the Oppor-tan lty to lay th e foundation of Oburebten-

The bigotry and intense hatred of Bishop Coxe appears In tbe fallowing paragraph:

••Against tbe Infidel, no need of more words. Until be has bla way and pulls down the whole fabno ut oor civilization, he m ost be content to 1st other* protect his life and property, and even his right, with­in decent limits, to u tter and publish bis cammnnisttc absurdities, sod bis fanatical batted of alt Christian society. To the disciple of Plus tbe N inth we oppose a like consideration, based upon tbe free civ- Uizalloe of American Christianity. Tbe law secures us In tbe right and duty of teaching the children of tbe republic the f ondaoiental morality of the Bible, as a rule of conduct." \,

Here tbe tiger sbows his fangs. He could tear and rend w ith tbs thumbscrew ,nd rack, If he had the power. The “infi­

del" has no rights the churchman la bound to respect Tbe Christian Bishop descends to misrepresentation of the most false and vindictive character. The infidel vjinild ‘poll.down the whole fabric of our civiliza­

tion!" Are not Infidels Interested in good government? Have they not the s share in maintaining the government as church membersV Finally, was not tbe free broad governmentof tbe United States designed and framed by infidels like Benj. Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and tbe church terror. Thomna Paine 1 W erajt not for Lnfl dots, nell her Bishop Coxe nor any.other UlBh- op wonld have the freedom to abase t*i e free­dom he enjoys. Again this Bishop Implies that all infidels are communists and Inde­cent. They are held In check by the Bible In the schools. I t la Ibe corner stone of our civilization and government.

Tbe English language Is certainly not based on tbe Bible, nor is tbe best port! on of Us literature copied after i t So fur as communism or decency is concerned, tbe Bible teaches communism In the most ab­solute sense. I t was a community. In which all things were held In common.trom which Annan|M and Bapphlara withheld a part of tbelr goods and were killed Instantly. Christ taught tbe most absolute communism, when be extolled the poor and tbelr poverty and told the rich to sell all they had and give to the poor, saying th a t the rich could not enter heaven. I t was tbe lilies which toiled not th a t were blessed beyond Solomon and all hts glory. Decency I There are passages In the Bible which ooghtto close the mouths of all who talk aboat decency. I f It is to be read a t all, let It be read contlnuonaly. I f th a t plan were made compulsory, there would soon be an end of tbls agitation. Place the decency • along side of the morality as taught by ex. ample, la there a single character In the Old Testament any one wonld desire tbelr children to Imitate? Would they desire them to im itate Solomon, with bis harem of a thousand wives and mistresses? In U tah we have a whole nation of. Solomons, and It Is tbe question of the day, what shall be done with them. Would they have them im itate David and betray on honest man because they loved bis wife? There are eeveral Davids In every penitentiary of this country serving out sentences for some form of this kind of depravity. Woold they have them Imitate Jacob and gain wealth by fraud » T bat is not eo repre­hensible a t present, but is anything b a t no­ble. Where Is there a character in the Old Bible we would desire our children to ac- cept aa a model? Where In tbe New? There are few. chapters whloh can be read In public without omissions of parts which cause the blush to mantle tbe cheeks of ’modesty. There are chapters so gross that there la nothing In the world to compare w ith them ; chapters which Bishop Coxe canid not be Induced, even by the fear of death to read from his pulpit. The He­brews of the time of such writings bad a different standard of taste from the pres­e n t W hatis now shockingly gross and li­bidinous, they ' then accepted as a mat­te r of course.

..ras rapidly usurping the place of the pul­pit. and thatr"the reason why the people fall«! to attend the churches, la because they are better Informed than the preachers who set themselves np to teach. The meth­od of Instruction has completely changed since the use of tbe printing press, and-lf people attend church It la not from expecta­tion of being Instructed; I t Is rather from habit, for social gain or sometimes amuse­ment, as In the case, of Talmadge's flock, who are drawn by the uncertainty of bis next acrobatic performance. We are no lODger alone In oar Interpretation of tbe fa c t A correspondent of tbe Christian Register reports the following conversation overheard on the ears.

"One passenger said: "Tbe m inister has no magnetism In him. He can’t make any sort of connection with the people. Borne of the people stick to the church, because they are U nitarians; bn t I don't go any longer. I won’t go; for there la no use In It, and It,vexes me.’ : Tbe other passenger said: ‘Tell yon w hat alls the preachers. They don't realize tb a t tbe people are miles and miles ahead of them. People have- got outside of the old no tions They read books, and learn something; and, when they hear thepreachlng, they find It isn 't jto tmtA rr tho rfladtnir.n 'so good as the reading.'

I t would be easy to answer the question, “W hat ails the preaohera?" The church au­thorities will no t allow vigorous thought, as Swing. Thomas and others testify; and when a preacher Insists on being something more than a theological mummy, gibber­ing the set forms of antiquity, he Is a t once

So long as poverty and crime exist or the imperfections of human nature mani­fest themselves in such avaB ety of ways, there rcu it necessarily be counteracting In­fluences instituted and controlled by those who have so far advanced in the scale of human progress tha t tbBy can withstand temptation successfully; whose natures are full—so to speak—of the "m ilt of human kindness." and whose only aspiration Is to benefit humanity. Take, for example, FJor- ence Nightengale, nhosesoulla Illuminated with tbe grandeur of sympathies that n o t urally entwine around the sick and poor— she Is now sixty years of ago, and notwith­standing her long confinement to an In. valid's chair, it Is said tbat she still looks young and handsome, her fair face Is un- wrlnkted, her large brown eyes are fall of kindness, and she is still actually Interested In various practical works for tbe relief of the unfortunate and poverty stricken.

Florence Nightengale does not stand alone —thowands like her, with aspirations as God like and divine, are vigorously striving to ameliorate tbe condition of the slok and the poor, and place them In a position where they can enjoy an abundance of the sunshine and good cheer of this Ufa The M argaret Fuller Society of tbls city, haa many worthy members, who are winning golden opinions by their unselfish exertion to relievo the unfortunate condition of common working girls. A t one of the reg­u lar meetings of this society held at the Grand Pacific Hotel, Mrs. L. 11. Chandler fam ished some Interesting statistics with reference to them. She said that there were fifty thousand girls employed a t var­ious trades here a t the average wages of *3 per week, and that tbe average spm paid, tbe women for making shirts was ten cents. She related the instance of a young girl sleeping for six montbB In a grocer’s cart and piano box, as the sum earned -2 0 cent« a day—was lnsoEclent to pay for board and lodging. Bbe gave examples of the terrible sufferings endured by the working poor of Chicago. She pointed out the ne­cessity of a home for tbe worklng-girls, where they coaid twiiaardod a t reasonable rates. Sbe said that tbe'feqtabltsbed insti­tutions In thlB city charged too much, and tbe Woman’s Christian association and such organizations were piled with thousands of applications from people whom they were nnable to accommodate. The erring women and tbe pauper were provided for, b a t n place was needed for girls who were endeav­oring to earn an honest living. I t no such place existed, It was a question whether society had done Its duty. Mrs. Semple re ­marked tb a t a certain alderman bad given oat on Christmas day three hundred tickets for free meals to homeless msn, bu t nonB were given to homeless women. Other members of tbe society spoke feelingly In the Bame strain. Mrs Chandler then also referred to the "mashers," showing the InBUlta which working-gills weresutojeoted to upon the streets. She said that It was Chicago's ahamB that its men and women had to sink to the lowest depths before Its civilization reached out its hand to tboir aid. The drunkard was helped on to f the gu tte r and surrounded yrttb luxuries, but decent, hard-working girls were left home­less and unprotected. Half the money tb a t Is squandered on expensive club-bosses would more than servo to provide a perma­nent and magnificent home for them.

Those who are now familiar w ith the suffering and hardships of a certain class of working girls, will a t once recognize the lecessity or a systematic effort In their

behalf. They are absolutely deprived of every enjoyment th a t tends to lighten the burdens of life, and In eonseqnecce many of them, with tbe vain hope of bettering their condition, become the easy victims ot designing men. “A n ounce of prevention Is better than a pound of cure," and partlo- nlarly does this apply to homeless young girls who are struggling with the vicissi­tudes of life; who, with proper encobrage- m entand assistance, wonld become orna­ments of soolety, instead of victims to depraved passions and tastes. In th is world of plenty, not one of God's children ehould be deprived of an opportunity to gain an honest livelihood. Buoh would not be tbe case were it not for tbe Inordinate selfish­ness of those endowed with wealth and the rapacity of business men, who wish to ac­cumulate money a t the expense of the very life blood of those whom they employ. The unfortunate working glrlsl require, os The Shaker well says, "a kind word, a help­ing-hand, the warm sympathy th a t rejoices w ith those th a t rejoloe, and weepa-wlth those who weep."

Psychology.

The subject o f . Psychology has long claimed public attention, and resting as it- does on the great laws which govern spirit Intercourse, It has a deep Interest to the thinking Spiritualist. That one person can control another by the power of will, when the subject of control 1b a 'lsonsltlvo" has long been known,bub the laws and conditions governing snch control have been illy un­derstood. Heally this controlling Influence of tbe will excita a great inftuence In the affairs of life, and men having this strong will power gain tbelr selfish ends through Its Influence over three so unfortunate as to fall under their control. Hence I t Is well th a t the public becomB thorobghly ac­quainted with this most Important subject An opportunity Is now afforded by Dr. Townsend, who adds to the attraction of

I t haa been a subject for rem ark (bat Chicago, a city of six hundred thousand people, w ith a large transient population, maintained only one Spiritualist society. This anomalous condition of affairs has been deeply regretted by leading Spiritual­ists. and effortB made toward Inaugurating an ew movement; yet w ith the exception of the commendable effirts ot Me-ars. Brooke and Carleton.on Milwaukee Aveune, to accommodate a local want in that vicin­ity, noil! the present tim e nothing bus been practically accomplished. There should be for the accommodation of tbe l«rge and rapidly Increasing element, not only one but&everal societies with regular meetings, end if proper measures were used in sup­plying able speakers, sneb meetings wonld be without doubt well attend«! and sustain-ed.

liecontly a number of prominent Bplrit- nallBts have taken tDis m atter In band, and set earnestly about the organization of a new eociety. They have engaged Union Park Hall, centrally located in the m oit populous division of tbe city, and re fitly accessible by cars from all point-, and in­tend to furnish a series of lectures by the best speakers tb a t can be secured. The Brat meetings were held last Sunday, morn­ing and evening. Although tbe announce­ment was not made until tbe day before, there was encouraging response and larger audiences than the management expected. Hudson Tuttle had been engaged bv the management to give the Initial address, and met the high expectation raised by the announcement.

The evening discourse on tbe "Flood-tides of Spiritualism In tbe History of tbe World," will be published In fall in our col­umns. Tbe movement thus happily began promises to become a marked success. The management assure tbe public th a t the meetings will be sustained a t tbe highest standard of excellence, and every way con­ducted In a manner which shall tend to elevate and bring honor to the cause o t Spiritualism aud liberal thought.• Mr, Tuttle will lecture next Bnndsy morn-

tog, his BUbject being “The Essence o f spir- ituallsm." Our readers will see bow vast a subject tbls is and how interesting It may be made. I t Is hoped tbe audience will be prompt In arriving, so that the lecture may not be Interrupted by late camera. All should be In tbe lr seats If possible a t a quarter before eleven o’clock.

We pnbl eh In this number the abstract of an address delivered by A. B. French In Philadelphia. In an accompanying note Mr. French eaysi “ This discourse was

Our Exchanges.

The Bulletin, a paper published at Sydney, Now South Wales, comes taband this week with an excellent likeness and biographical sketch of that eloquent and Indefatigable worker in the field« of reform and philoso­phy—Prof. Wm Denton. The Professor is dulng a grand good work in that distant re­gion; hie lectures have been enthusiastic­ally received. The Bulletin says or him:

“There can be nodoubt that the two moat notable visitors to the colonies during the the past year a te Mr. Proctor and Professor Denton. What we owe to the one la the m ailer ot Aitrnnmnlcal science, we are In. debted to ihe other In reapeot of Geological science. T,ie two men have, by their nap- able a id lucul treatm ent of hard facta, given an incentive to study In the direction Indicated that was certainly never previous­ly experienced here, and never exppc’ed. The ji'-pular style In which I'rofesanr Den­ton gives. In his “Story of the E irth ," the revelations of geological research, has had tbe effect ot awakening Inquiry as to the natural history of our own continent. In Victoria ai d in this colony hts lectures have been largely et'Ciided. and It is satisfactory to find that fiord a financial, ns well as a scientific point nf view, the professor'evlslt to Auilralia hue not been withoutgood re-, reruns. - He Is now studying the glacial' phenomena Df the Southern Hemisphere, and contemplates writing a work on 1.1 and Life, combating on some 1 moo rian t points the views of Darwin and Wallace.- The Professor, on leaving Sydney, proceeds to Tasmania and New Zealand, ea routs to America.1’

The Christmas number of TheNew North- tea t ie must excellent, consisting of 16 pages, rendering Ibe paper double its nsua] size. The Northwest la edited and publish­ed by Mrs. Abigail ScOtVDanlway. and i t Is a standing monument of her ability, per­severance and zeal In the oaose of woman and reform. Tne contents of this number are varied and interesting, and the citizens of Portland should be proud of the woman who wields a pen so vigorously In their be­half. Under the head o t “Harcblng On’’ Bbe speaks of the press as follows:

“The press, the reflector of human pro­gress, bus caught' tbe rays of liberty's re­splendence and thrown them into the dark pages of bttberto covered history, bringing to the light many a long-forgotten, because never Before disseminated fact, proving th a t women In ail the bygone ages perform, td valorous deeds quite equal to those of contemnoraneous men.

N ot only are a goodly number of papers pub- Hahed exclusively In Us Interest, but the general tone of the eecular press has changed, until a flrsbetasa paper Is seldom seen in which tbe enfranchisement o t wom­an does net recetve respectful mention.”

The Medium and Daybreak of London, England, occasionally departs from tbe dls- cusaton of spiritualistic subjects and care­fully considera the subject of diet.. In view of tbe fact th a t each article of diet la con- slderéd highly deleterious to the human system by some distinguished wiseacre, It would Indeed be refreshing If some one— spirit or m ortsl—could definitely settle the vexed question, and leave humanity in doubt no longer in regard to tbe kind of food his system requires. The Medium and Daybreak sayai

"Comparative Anatomy and Physiology demonstrate incontestably tbe fact th a t man Is naturally not carnivorous or herb­ivorous, nor even omnlverous, bnt frnglv- eroua, His teeth and bla intestinal canal are those of the anthropoid quadrant ana, not those of the tiger.tbe wolf, tne sheep oythe swine. Blood is, or should be, on-«very plane, an abomination to him. N or ia Chemistry silent on this question. The comparative tmalyalB of foods, vegetable end animal, demonstrates the fact tb a t not only are tbe fibrin, albumen and casein of vegetable producto Identical In character with those of animal products, but th a t Borne of tbe former In nutritiva value sur- pass by a great deal the richest of animal flesh. F o r Instance; broad beans, baricot beans, peas, lentils and wheat, average from 22 to SO per cent, of nitrogenous o r tissue- forming substance, while beef, mutton, pork, and veal average from S to 10 per cent of tbe same substance. Fats, too. which are so necessary to os aa heat aud force producers, are liberally supplied us by the vegetable kingdom, rloh In seed and n u t oils; and If to these we add Buoh animal products, obtainable w ithout slaughter,

_ id fatty substances In the arcana of Na­ture. Besides these considerations, we get In Uie vegetable kingdom a whole group ofsubstances which have no existence in ani­mal Products; I mean the carbo-hydrates: etaroh, sugar, and thelr-oognates, which are so necessary to man tb a t Dr. Lyon Play, fa ir In the composition of hU tables of diet, prescribes a proportion ot 18 in carbo-hy­drates to 4 of nitrogenous matter, and 1 of fatty substance."

The London Spiritualist has a r able ar­ticle In relation to "Tbe Guardianship of » o u g h t,” I t Is well known th a t Helm­holtz demonstrated th a t a wave of'thought' would require about a m inute to traverse a mile of nerve, and Hirsch found that a tonoh on the face was recognized by the brain and responded to a manual signal In the seventh of a second. ’ There may be a “ guardianship of tbe thoughts," In the some sense that a person may take care of, or protect himself, or lif t himself Up by pulling on hlB boot straps. Other guardian­ships a t the same rime; we think, a te desir­able. The Spiritualist says:

UI am thy Father's Spirit,Boomed for ac*rt*1n lima.To walk the earth."—R u n le t

The first thoughts of Spiritualism which over materials i-d in CrawfanlavStle waa In 1&I3, when Fishtr Doherty sent to R'lchuetor, N. Y., and pro­cured a copy of Prof. Andrew Jackson Davis’ work entitled ‘‘Nature’s Divine Revelation.” Da­vis wo* only nineteen ye*» of ago when She book was published, and for a boy the work contained vast research and deep thought. When Doherty got the book Dr. Morgan was appointed reader, and the rest eat around the Ore In tho drug store at night, attentive listeners. Oo page 075 oc­curred thU passage: " It Isa tru th that spirits from beyond the tomb come back to earth and communicate with spirits still in tbs body, and this troth shall ero long be made manliest to dwellers on earth," Oo this page Doherty wrote, "Jive and hope that It may be."

Immediately following the perusal of the book. Senator Jim Wilson came to Doherty’s shop one day, having la bis hand a copy of the New York Tribum, containing an account of the rapping* a t Hydesvlif«. New York, where a mprder had been committed seme years before and communicated by the spirit of the murdered m*n through the medium of ' a little girl. Numerous noises end and raps had been heard by the family occupying the house and one UtUefelrl bolder then the rest, snapped her flogere, remarking,"do os I do," and the «newer came back. This girl afterward be- emne one of the famouB Fox slaters, mediums and clairvoyant*. This spirit declared that its owner was formerly a peddiar by tho namo of Jobs B. Eaueman, and tha t he baa been murdered In that house, oad afterwords the boaejrof a man were found Io the cellar, thus giving the Impress of truth totboatory, FUhcr became m uchlm . pressed and prepared a tetter which was sent to David Willis, at Rochester. N. chairman of the committee of spiritual Investigators, pro­pounding several questions, first sealing up three articles lu common use and lock In e them in Dr. Morgan’s safe, asking the spirits to tell him the name of the art!do* saying that If there waa any. thing in these manifestations he saw so good rea­son why they could not appear to Sooalors as well as Mohawk Dutch. After the letter had beta sent Dr. Morgan concluded he woiud "catch" the spirits, so with Fishnr’a consent he wrote » le tter to Willis, saying tha t Doherty was a mao of great wealth and a mighty worker In anything he un. dertoofc, and that ftuch a champion of the cause would be Invaluable, and to help him out bo would reveal the name of each article la the safe In order that the answer might bo correctly given, of course naming different articles from those pu t In. The letter was signed “G. Noble." When WilUs received tho letter he repaired to the ofDce of Isaac Post, ao old Quaker magistrate, and had a true copy of Morgan's letter made and certified to, and wrote to Doherty asking if ouch a man lived In thU city or U the name was as­sumed, and farther tha t such » moo aa Noble would have a tough time with nplrits ae the bad spirits would gather around him. Fisher never answered the letter, and thus the matter dropped, For a long time no spiritual manifestations were wen or heard by Doherty, until one day he was spreading some dirt lo the yard whan ajl a t once a tune came out of a etorc box standing a few feet away. Fisher suppoted it to be a rat, and pick­ing* d ub , he made ready for battle with the ro. dent, bnt nothing could be found lu the box o r In the cheese box inside. I t was not till then that Fisher thought of spirits and of bis brother who hod been a drummer. He called and called again, bu t could gat no answer. ThU thing con­tinued for about one month and Fisher waa In- formed of the deaihof three brothers of cholera lu Ohi0,00 tho very day he hod heard the noise In the box The noises were kept up « lithe time and io *11 parte of the house. Df. Brown and Fisher were talking over the subject cue day and this isle was unfolded. Brows wished to come and aee and hear for himself, and the next Mon­day night woe fixed upon ae the time. Became to Dohsriy’a house at the appointed time, accom­panied by Andrew Mitchell. No sooner hod they entered than a series of knocks were heard is the room, on the windows and doors. Mitchell re. crixed a communication from a brother who waa dtawned yean before In Wm. Galey’s wcIL Dr.

The General Association of German, Women has »coolly held it* Annual Congress atLubeck, and one of Its members writes me in these word* concerning It: ." I am very much satisfied with our congreas lo some respects,- less lu others. I am satisfied because tho meeUntr was much more progreaslvQ—radical, you Americans would say— than any previous one: I am also satisfied be. caaro the press has taken so much notlco of It, even tho M^utbero papers, like the Autjtbur^er Algemnne Zeitunff, having bncn represented by correspoademsat Us seasloas; sathded that from beginning to end there wo* a thronging public so that hundreds were obliged lo go away. Bat I am disappointed tha t for the first tlmo lu the history of onr organlssUotr there was no positive outcome of the congress, no local association formed which might put our Ideas Into action. Promises were mods that such an association would be established In the ends; some nay leg that Northern people were not bo quick to a d as those of more southern climes. Bat I »now too well that what is not done Immediately, befipre the eu- t hue loam dice out, I* not likely to bo done at all. Besides, It Is only natural that our speeches which treated not simply of general education and pro­fessional schools, but hinted a t woman's right« la the American seose of the word, should meet with disapprobation from many who havo never thought on these subjects, and who now hear them for the firet time. New ideas—and they were Indeed new for tbo Lubeckera—aru always slow In gaiaing ground.

“The nature of the congress and the scope of the woman movement In Germany may be beat understood by giving the aubjoctsof the addresses pronounced daring tbo three days' sessions.

•’Mlsa Auguste Schmidt, of Lelpslc, spoke on the character ot the woman movement In Gcr. many; Mrs. Louies Otto Pater», also of Lstpslc, the founder of the General Society of German Women, dwelt on The pact and future of the - - ctety; Mlaa Marie Calm, of CasasL delivered _ extemporaneous speech, on tho history of tho woman movement lu America, England, Franco and Germany, finding tho recently published 'History of Woman Suffrage’ moat valua' *she Informs die. in her study of the quesi--------the first-named country; Miss Jenny H ind i, secretary of the admirable Lett« Society of Berlin, gave an account of the work occompU&ncd by her Bocicty to ameliorate the educational and Indus­trial condition of women; Mist Julie Will born Jof Schwerin, read an eesay on the scientific educa- lion of women teachers; Miss Menszcr. of Dres­den, spoke upon the Important tonic of woman’s work and wages; Miss Asa man, of Uanovsr, dto- eussed woman's position aa a d tlzan t Mrs. Lina Morgens tern, of Berlin, described the Votkaktteh- ea of tha t city, and Mrs. FtHJgraff, of Hamburg,fold a high tribute to woman7» condition In the

nited States."A few words about some of the German wc

rights advocates may not be uninteresting. _ _ only one whom I know personally U Miss Marie Calm, of Oaeacl, and 11 she may bn taken nsa fair specimen of the others, Germany may be

-proudof these refertoere. Misa Calm talks and writes French and English almost perfectly, la Intelligent, vivacious, full of enthusiasm, speaks clearly and forcibly w ithout nptee^ir manuscript, and withal le a refined and cm turedfkdy. Bbo la In advance ,of moat of her co-workers, but, on ac­count of the conservative spirit of Germany, she fecla bound to conceal her radical views when speaking In public, lest their open expression might damage the cause which abe has a t heart. Brierring to her address a t the congress on the history of the woman question In Europe and America, already mentioned, aha says: 'My sym­pathy with the suffrage movement cropped out bo much that the papen colled attention to it-*

trouble and distress a t Aeldla ------------ —signs which are to precede the comtog of that hour many have already been accomplished. There have been tumults and seditions Innumer­able, earthquakes sad eclipses. Faith has decay­ed among men. The Russian war brought forth the fulfillment of the prophecy tha t Gog and Magog, the falr-halrod tribes of the N orth, should once more break forth across the barriers which Dhn’l. Karoshi built up against them In the mountains of Armenia. That the AnU-chrlst has appeared In the shape of Eosland's Prime Minis­ter Is a secret to no devout Moslem, and if the letters K. F. B, (Kafir or Infidel) have not yet been read on Hr, Gladstone’s brow, it U that the un- bcllevere are blind to the sign with which he bos verily been branded. But two more signs are yet wanting—the descent of Jesus on earth and the apparition of the Mahdy, or Director, T hat the time Is fulfilled for the former event I t is general­ly believed, nod I recollect that a few years ago, when 1 was at Damascus, the eastern minaret of the great mosque, upon which he Is to descend, and which Is called la coarequooco thereof the Minaret of Joans» waa being cleaned and * *f& expectation of his coming.

But tbs greatest of all the signs, though not clearly specified lu the Koran, has always been hold to be the apparition of tho Mahdy, concern­ing whom, according to Bale, Mohammed proph­esied that the world should not havo an end tUI ono of hla own family should again rule over the egg of Islam, whoso name and whoso father’s came should be the same with his own and his fsthci’sow ti (Abdullah). Tradition* on this point are. however, numerous and conflicting. Many believe tha t the Mahdy will be an incarnation of God upon earth, and that only bJs Vekyl, or vicegerent, will belong to the noble tribe of the Korelsh, while eome go even further end odd that this Yekyl's owno will ho Abdul Matalllo, and tha t the Mahdy will make his appearance daring hie third Oborlffate. Others ogam hold th a t the Mahdv'a own name will be Abdullah, but that after bis appearance bo will In due time die and be succeeded by his father, Mohammed, who will bo raised from death for that purpose, and, to ­gether with Jeans, the eon of Mary, will fill the whole world with the knowledge of God and El Islam, whatever these minor discrepancies u»*y be there la, however, a general conssnsua among Mussulmans tha t toward tho begtnslng of the fourteenth century of the Hegira a descendant of the Prophet, of the tribe o fthe Korelsh, will role over the Arabs, and tha t a t tha t tim e the Mahdy will reveal himself at Mecca, mud the era of the Caliphate bo brought to au end.

Two years only separate ue atUl from tho b». ginning of the fourteenth century; Abdul MuUL llo, for the third time Cheriffof Mecca, la report­ed to havo railed the standard of rebellion andEreclaimed himself ruler over tho Arabs; and lo i

Spirituality of the kind that la enlightenment to the Intellect, creating susceptibility to mental sttmnlatlon, so opening the avenues of thought tha t reach Into the causes of thlngB, has been lacking In the formation of many of the systems of thought o t the past and present.

den from the common understanding. The error above noticed lies In a misapprehen­sion of the t rue scope of mental medium- ship, the re'atlve nature and powers o t an inspired as compared to an uninspired in- tolled.

The principle that Inspiration la u stim ­ulation o t w hat there is in a subject—that mediumahip Is the quickening of the sens ibilitles or the faculties of an Individual, not in any seme supplying faculties not possessed before, ie becoming well under­stood among Inquirers Into this philosophy. Those naturally olairvoyant, for Instance, are the best subjects for development as seers, healers, etc., thus Illustrating the re­lated fact, tha t those naturally highly in­telligent and the cultured are the best sub­jects for mental medlumshlp. The best previous preparation for development as n medium tor the revelatldn or-dleousalon of great troths, philosophic principles, or sci­entific facts, is the Inherent capacity of mind to comprehend principles, and the culture th a t makes a mind susceptible to the Impress of great tro ths In a way to give them Jnst expression, combined with a proper degree of sensitiveness. The fact that illiterate youth of both sexes and older persons of moderate culture have been chosen by spirits and developed as expositors of principles, does not alter this law; and the fact remains, which Is its verification, th a t these same developed philosophera have made many mistakes, especially In their Inclplaney during the period when they were under epeolal tra in ­ing for their mnturo stage o f medtnmstilp. The Inexperience or ignorante of mankind in thle thing of medlumistio training and .teaching, 'has caused^ttem 'generally to otaaa a ll the teachlcta of mediums together es equally reliable—their earlier with their later, without considering what ia a signi­ficant t ru th , th a t the earlier are ap t to bo like the efforts of a student jo s t entering upon hlB studies, While the later are ap t to ho (but unfortunately are not always) like those of the student well learned.

To snppoae th a t philosophy or science, the facto of nature or history, a re to find correct exposition through a medium all uncultivated' In Intellect, non conversant w ith the term s and methods of science and .philosophy, w ith mind unexpanded by a knowledge of men and things,and w ith a development as superficial as the mind It­self when, seised upon fo r control, to to sup­pose what Is an utterly ou t of the question as th a t on infant can by being prompted by a philosopher philosophically expound his" vlewe. The child able to articulate words m ight repeat verbatim w hat was p a t into his month, b u t a medium m ost do more than th is; he o r she m ust bavé a brain sufficiently comprehensive to catoh the Impress of a thought before I t can give i t expression, to o th e r words, the medi­um ’s brain m ust be able to give an answer­ing impulse to a thought th a t Is sought to be Impressed upon I t o r i t cannot oatoh Its Impression. There m ust be like magnetlo ethers of thought, then, o r the affinity to lacking which to the .condition ot trans­mission of Impressions of any character upon a human subject.

Development of mental medlnmahlp is to the mind w hat te a t of physical medlnm­ahlp to to the body. I t to the creation o t susceptibility to thought magnetism of the quality desired, which requires a long pro­cess of education and spiritualization of the Intellect, to make It readily receptive to tru th by the unfoldment of Its own pow­ers of perception. The cultivated and spiritualized Intellect meets the thought of the cnltnred sp irit prompter, os the pre­pared sell meets the seed cast into It, or as the physical medium, well developed and magnetically strong, meets the Bplrit force poured upon him. A Newton or a Houck moat be magnetically qualified In them­selves to reoetve their development and the Impetus to healing which makes them giants In their jm rUcnlar field of labor. This conetltotha their development-mak­ing theliiost of their own Inborn magnetic force.

Impossible things are no t to be expected of medlumshlp. “Tecannot gather grapes of thorns or figs of thistles.” So many at- tempta to do thto have been made and with pretended success/ th a t Spiritualism has been m ads,in the estimation of many, a Jumble of contradictions and absurd tile than which, the “Arabipn Nlghte" Is w

Reject the crude, the uncultivat­ed, th a t which Is false to humau.experl- enee and ascertained truth, attributing Its failures to inefficiency of the subject under contro l- wbloh presupposes both subject and prompter—not to medlumshlp Itself properly brought Into requisition.

Here the question suggests itself—jg a mediumahip be so perfected In any indi­vidual ns to be an Infallible expositor of* the thought of a spirit V This admits the same answer aa the following; Can one human Intellect be eu perfectly adapted to soother by the developing process th a t the thonght of tha t other can pass through It unalloyed, os if east in the same mold» The answer is evident. One individuality oannot no tree Itself In another as to think tha t other's exact thoughts, use hlsterm a or speech or reach always exactly the same conclusions from like premises. Herb again we see that e medium^ mentality, m ust he an element la th e iommunlchtions given through him.

Spiritual Communications,

NO. AIn the month of Sept, 1SS0, Dr, Joseph

Edson, of Geneva, was sitting in hto own honae, and a t hts own table in company with a medium, when the following com-' munleation waa given ;

"Give I£r. Ward cinnamon tea, and when you have another case, give i t to begin w ith and yon will Bavo the patient. Dr. Ack­ley.”

Dr, Ackley was possessed of a physical body la Cleveland a few years since, A t the tim e the above message was given Dr, Edson (brother of M IssE Edson who served In the Garfield family! was treating Almon W ard of Geneva, for ’’ righ ts disease.’ The doctor, the family friends mid neigh­bors, and Mr, W ard himself, had given up all ho p » of hto recovery. B e had made his will, which document >waa drawn on Sun­day by a Congregationallst Jus tire of the pease, be going five miles for the purpose. I t was deemed unsafe to wait until another day a»' the patient was very near ’’death’s blessed door.” Dr. Edson procured the best cinnamon he could find, and forthw ith to the p a tien t Mr. Ward com­menced taking a strong tea, and soon the symptoms were favorable. People about town wondered why “ Ward did not die." JL received a request from the family to oome and help nurse him. He being a brother of my wife (deceased}, I very n a t­urally compiled with the request I arrived In the evening, and found» the family con­versing In undertones, and all treading lightly, and a fanerai solemnity pervading all—the very atmosphere even. W hat could I t mean? Why. this. Mr. W. had com­plained th a t the cinnamon made «la stom­ach hum . and had refused to take it, and he had suffered a relapse. The friends thought be would not live until next morn­ing. He called me to his bedside to witness a feature th a t he bed overlooked in his will.

1 The dootor come the next day, and learn- tog th a t he had refused the tea. Insisted on his resuming It, and advlaed him to tabs s drink of milk, either before or a fte r taking the otonsmon. Ho took the tea,'and again the favorable symptoms appeared. B e per: severed In Its use, and five o r six weeks a fte r be rode five miles to thé Town hall, and voted for Garfield.

T o go back to th e room of the Invalid, is a m atter

of Interest to me, and also to all who are privileged to realize some o f the “good that Spiritualism does.'*

Wednesday morning I heard Mr. Ward relating to his present wife the following experience of the night before; “Melissa came to see me last night, and she stood by me and put herbands on my face, and said, 'Dou’t-be afraid, we will take oare of you.'I was not asleep. I knew 1 was not dream- lug.” Melissa was his a rs t wife, Mrs. Ward Bald to me, at- her flret opportunity, “H< was dreaming, of course he dfdfiht see what .he thinks he saw.11 Twojjays after, Thursday evening, about snnse't?Mrs. Ward said, " I will lay down and rest a little while.’* Bbe went to a bedroom joining the slttingroom, and laid down. la a f e w mo­menta Bhe saio, "Joseph, oome herel" I went to the door; said she, "Hark. ” I list- ened and said, “I don't bear anything." She requested mo to take a ehair and s it down by the door. I did eo, and In a moment I heard a shower of raps on the headboard of the bed on which ebe lay. She raised' her hands in view and eald," Yon spa I do not do I t and what Is It? There Is not a mouse about the bouse.” “Whet Is It?" 1 replied, " f know what It is, I have heard hundreds of them ; It Is sp irit power." As. If in re­sponse to w hat 1 said, tjle rapg were repeat­ed with redoubled energyi Bbe inquired, "Can’t wo eohversa with them f" Mr.- Ward hearing our conversation became exolted, and for reasons better understood by the invisibles the manifestations ceased, dhe knew she was not dreaming, and there was not a mouse about the house.

Sometimes when I have related th is case o f “Bright's disease," I have beeu m et by

JheakepUo, W itirih ls Inquiry,"Do you knew th a t the man bad 'Bright'« disease?"' I answer* Dr. Edson is an old man. his batr is as white ns snow, and his whole life has been spent In medlcalandsurglcal practice. He has ever been and Is, a student. I saw him lest the water ot the patient, and I think It safe to affirm that It was, a t least, one-fifth albumen. I make this statem ent In all sincerity, and I request the Spiritual­ist and seoular papers ot the United States to give tbts statem ent apace, as being very Important In the treatm ent of Bright’s dis­ease; yet I am aware that different persons require different treatment. I am nnt able to aay th a t cinnamon tea will save any other patient. I have only told my etory, which la worthy of space in any newspa­p er. J o s s e s B r e t t .

Palsied and trembling now Is the hand th a t In the years long gonentruek strong blows for love and home. They may have felled the tree« in this, a t that time, almost unbroken wilderness. Perhaps they fongbt the wtidbeasta'who disputed their right of settlement; or they may have, kindled the first fire In the log cabin, and cooked Bt the blazing hearth the first meal for the bold pioneer, the echo or whose stroke has startled the world with the m uste of western progress.

Dim now are the eyes w ith years of anx­ious watching. They have watched many a long night over the elck bed of their children, or traced the needle through the tom garment, while they slept or toiled by the light of. the dying embers a t the hearth, when no eyes saw them, save the' sleepless eyes of the watching stare, and the dear angels w ho, always guard over the faithful.

l i ehonld be understood In the first place, (bet while the reform movement lo which you reier. le In its resnlta still In many way a a manliest force in Utah no organization strictly representatives or It exists today; nor ha* there been any acch for some years past. Rad­ical politica] anti Mormon aasoclatioes, which sprang into exiaieeco oot of the condì Hoc* created by that revolution, do exist, hot they aro totally different In tbelnplril to the lofin- enee* and pol icy of the movement in question. Ali to how far the original movement te tesole.

S successfully In staying the progresa of illy domination in Blah, will be beat seen 1 a brief sketch of tie history.

In the first place It ehonld be understood that the movement wat purely of spiritosi origin, and was a remit of e determined effort on ibe part of the Spirit world to «m at the progresa of Ute terrible menial deapoliim then existing in these Isolated valleys 11 cerne to c i. ■* some one hai asid, ’'like a flash or light eel of a olear sky."

It Is difficult al this tale period to convey •ay adequate Idee of the influence of this spiritual movement, and el the sympathy which It arorued for itself IU the minds of the Mormon people. I t carnato the people of Utah after a long period of print!? repression and despotism moré excessive In ils demands for blind obedience, than anything cverknowa in the moat exacting perioda ol papal rule.

This you perceive, gave us a very largo audience, predisposed to. the consideration of the questioni, raised an au­dience,. too, never repelled by the assn ropUca that they must he either hnavec or fools.

was (Imply transferred bom an outward ag­gressive Institution, to au Internal agitation within the heart of the Mormon community Itself, where it baa been doing Its work with greater or leas force from that day to this. A few facts Will illustrate this point.

Previous to the date of the spiritual revolu­tion la question, the condition of the Mormon masses was one of slavish, not to any abject, submission to the priesthood The authori­ties oi the church olalmed the riget to dictate the personal affairs of every faithful believiog member within It quite as much as the finan­cial affairs of the church itself. I t wsa assumed, that acting as the “agenla of the Almighty.' body, brain and spirit were of right subject to their control, end few Indeed were ever known toyebel. The very location which men ehonld occupy In life, and the ohareoter of their business pursuits were sub Ject lo tide dictation, an long aa they claimed to be faithful members of the church. Men were broken up' in their huetneso oecopeliona, and sent to new locations to commence Ufa afresh, without a murmur or an outward kind at any event. Every (gw months scores were called to leave their families, lor periods vary­ing from three to five years for missionary projects, leaving their wives and children to get along Be best they could without their aid.So strong was the influence of public opinion, which the leading priesthood bad created on the subject and eo great was tbo odium which followed alsohedleoce to these priestly in qulreenento. that s case of the kind was scarce­ly ever heard of,

Ooe of Ibe very earliest resnlta or the move­ment Was 10 change this state of things, even with those who still remained in the church.It had scarcely been in existence ilk months before the btsboos began to complain loudly of the insubordination of the people, and their lack of respect for the teachings of the priesthood; and that complaint baa been urged, only with increased vehemence, to the preaent day.

bald Edwin D. Woolley, one of the most prominent and energetic of the Mormon bleb opt. within a few months of the expulsion of the revolutionists from the church; "Things are gelling to now, that ■ bishop is thought no mors of than any other men.'1 . This mourn fol plaint, which, lu any other comm1 oily, would have been simp' v amusing, had _ very different meaning In Utah, where Brig­ham w it publicly spoken or as -God to the people,1' and where every blsbon had been in h it turn a petty Brigham.

A t a priesthood meeting, held only eix months later for the selection of mission erica to the Eastern Buie* and ferelgu tends, out of one hundred and Iffy called to go al least h at f either refuted or sought to be excused on various pretenses—n thing before that date totally unheard of In the annals of Utah Mor-

Year by year these patent indications that she Mormon people are commencing to think fur themselves, have been ou tho Increase.Two or three year* before Brigham Young died, a Mormon school trustee s libera] think­er but st good standing in the church, made a point of bringing up in mv presence the ques­tion of the results to the church of the expul­sion of the originators of the movemeet; In connection with : which he remarked that 'Brigham would never have consented to thst -■xcommuolcattoa bad he foreseen the results which were to fellow.'1 Bold he, "You, the members o r the reform party, a n In Ute habit or estimating the resells of that movement by the numbers that have left tha church, but I can tell you that Ute effects von discover out­side Aa church are uot a tithing In tiro portion to what has been accomplished Inside of It.Brigham scolds and scolds, but nobody pays any attention to him how.”

The last two sessions of the Mormon Terri­torial legislature bare largely llloaffaled Ac I act of A u ehtnged attitude ol Ae Mormon people A Aelr leaden Thle body, ae you are doubtless aware. Is composed of Ae very elect of Ah Mormon kingdom. Indeed It (■ made op, almost wlihuut exooplton. of men In official positions In Ae priesthood. Aa n Mor­mon institution, it has been noted In past times for being more perlectly manipulated by Ae beads ot the church than any other in exist­ence. From the earliest organization Of the Territory Ah Mormon legislature has been known for Ao mschlue-llke precision with which It has passed without a word of discus­sion all the laws prepared tor It by Ae heads of Ae church.

Tho eesslous referred to showed that Ae new spirit is finding Its way even Ato A ls priesthood body. At A c last session but one a free discussion of the merits of Ae Mile sub­mitted was made for A e Brat time In Mormon history.

Au esteemed subscriber, living In Wash- ingtm , visited the court where Qatteau was on trial, and while sitting lo a repor­ter’s sear, received tbe roil owing communi­cation from a lady medium sitting near him:

THE HBPIim'u STATEMENT.“Let me aey Brat, that Oulteau A nos

Bach an 'hard n o t to crark.’ R ia menial operations are very simple compared with thousands of other*. BO has never been a student of himself, bu t to a limited way has given his thought to o ther 1 b logs.. In kill- lug the provident, there wus much less com. plication In the motive power than people imagine, Qul'eau is of such a tempera­ment and organization, and had worked himself up to such a print, that he thought the 'President's removal,’ as he called It, was the best thing he could do. That was the work of his own reasoning, deduced from the facto and situation a t A e time as he saw them, HI* disappointment as to office, rebuff from Blaine and denial a t tho

I W hite House, were minor motive powers ! In the Incipient stages of A e case, hu t not

controlling elements afterwards. Toe act ot M ooting was purely his own act. He A no more insane than others of like temper­am ent w boaot oat their first thought or Impulse. In this way, Gmtoau reasons out »good deal. Every act of his Hie A meas­ured, but tn every mstouce his first thought to carried out, if carried out a t all. His reasoning la limited by fa Is education and resources. His reasoning Is not logical, but simply deductions from his first thought.

•'As to bis insane appearance, Guitexu is tinder intense excitement a t times, «rawing oa t of the scenes and surroundings In court, Viewed in th s t light, people who have not known him before are deceived by his physical appearance, whloh A the result of thia mental condition. I t A only by being w ith him a considerable time A a t these first Impressions os to his insanity can he overcome,

“Experte say he l a ‘playing a part* in court. Gulteau don't consider I t ao. He believes the government lawyers are mak­ing much ado about BOthAg. He becomes Impatient Bt their methods, and seeing oth­ers don't correct them, he picks bis oupnr. tunity and 'b lurts' o a t w hat he thinks. He la not satisfied either w lA the con duet of counsel on hla side; he feels th a t they don’t see tbe points as he roes them, and conse­quently he feels obliged to make the speeobM to teem ha does. He does some things for sensation, bu t be has g test power of selr-oontreL

“Oulteau will falsify If he deem glt ne­cessary, though i t hardly seems falsa to him a t the time, for two reasons: First, because be A lnks these points upon wbtob he falsifies A lngaof A e past,of no account, and should not come into A e ossa (Second, by so doAg he may make a point,la his own favor, which la a right thing of Itself. He has a righ t to falsify or tell 'w hite lies,' under the law of self defense. ■

“His 'Divinity’ or 'D ivine Inspiration' business covers broad grounds, and dates hack to his earliest religious discipline. His belief as to tbe A terventlon o f tbe Deity A his case is the natural outgrowth or these teachings. He believe* the Lord dlreote men's actions, if AeV are like him- self, o f A e'chosen few.’ He believes Ao Lord will make men protect him fordoing Hie work. He believes this A the same wpy th a t ordinary : church people believe things will happen A acoordanoe with A elr

“He thought little of the ccnsequenees to A e President H e J Idn’c d ream o f hla 11v- lng, or suffering any length of time. He gave tw o ehota to make It euro.

“Aa to consequences incident A himself, be thought he could he held 'legally Insane’ hy A e courts, placed A an asylum, where he would remain quietly till humanity bad calmed down, and could see things aa be BBW them. Following A le he would be able to Bhow the great good resulting from bA aot, when he would be released, goforth gior IBed and held up as a great person.

“There was nothing peculiar about A la aot happening a t Ala time. The elements were there, and circumstances brought It to A e e o rfa c e Qutteau knew it was un­lawful, b u t he couldn’t see I t In A e light of a great crime, because it was overshadowed by supposed greater good. I t was the same as In A e divorce case.

“As to treatm ent. Gulteau would prob­ably be harmless utter Als, If let looee, but I t would he better to eiinane h im fo r life. There are ao right places to Bend auch per- sons as be, bu t tbe Workhouse or prison -would be better A an an Insane asylum.

“In general. GoUeaa was ra th er a low type of a criminal, b u t there were many worse ty PM. Ha. was not blood-thirsty. H e would n o t commit any violent outrage for money. He would borrow money, with a dim idea of repaying it, if be ever got any, I t he didn’t, so matter. Jn any event, a living was due him, as A case of the apostles»

“There is no doubt, Mr. Bcovllla ia con­vinced A a t Gulteau Is Insnne, os he under­stands insanity. He Is working for pure Justice, endeavoring to keep emotion and feelings out of the case.

S pirit Possession.

Tbe Chicago Wfinarth&s awakened to the alarming aspect of the great spiritual move- m ent^nd In a doable leaded editorial launch- H i t s warning against: tbe terrible foe. I t honestly meets tbe matter, w ithout seeking to disparage it. I t Is thaveritablsGolinh e f modem times. For th re e ' months tbla w riter was tbe “vleltaT of sp irit Inter­course, and saved himself by prayer, from teotefloenH of te a evU SRlrlta, With him It Is no subject for idle talk. He says:

“B at many good people, Christian minis, b e m u d teacheii.in thefacaof God's truth, declare Ihat Spiritualism is merely a silly aberration of tbe mind and Imagination

. caused by other Influences than that, of sp irit intercourse—that I t la a humbug—a nervous Infirmity or a abase of bumsn rat- eallty. 0 o not, dear friends, be deceived by such a declaration. Spiritualism in a fact—sweeter than honey In Its ruinous fas­cination and delusion, but b itter as gall Us religious, moral and social rasulta."

I t la remark able th a t tbla ones wroae editor could team In three months so much more than those who have made Spiritual. Ism a life study, fo r th irty years, u d men, too, who undertook tbe Investigation well prepared fo r the task. The W itnusm an beam false witness in the following reck, lesaatyle:

"Has ever any good been done, In real! by spirit influence! Do jpon say th a t me;

etere them to health! Tbe fact has been demonstrated. Do yon say th a t men’«

Wo have only the wordgrof delu­ded Spiritualista to support it, and those outside Of their charmed -cholea'1 will be t a b to receive such testimony. The Whole machinery, wonderful phenomena m û teaïblnga of SplritiiSittm, are unworthy of confidence, and non# b u t its deluded vic­tims can conscientiously advocate its boast­ed merits.

The records of the divorce and other courts, and the columns of the dally press, contain all necessary evidence oa three subjects to condemn the whole system of moderntaplr- lt-tbfiueucea. But we would warn the un. wary, before I t la too late, to pntteemMlvBi in the strongest opposiuon to these baleful Influences, lest they be overcome by their fascinations and reap lasting sorrow for their weakness and credulity. We would warn them earnestly and prayerfully againet the spirit-stance and circle, as we would against the liquor saloon and the

The great question whtch concerns us Is, not the m o lt , h u t whether our sp irit friendB return and communicate with us. Tha editor of the WUnest admits that ophite do return, bu t they are evil spirits. I f eyll splritecsn jretnrn , why so t the good! Ia God so unjust aa to allow toe evil to coma and forhld the loving and true friends to approach ns! The Witness holds tha t the Bi­ble forbids the intercourse w ith spirits, W h«e,oh , Witnett, in Hie How Testament, is th is forbidden! Bather la It not explicit, ly said t "These signs shall follow those who believe."

Psychology—The P ast and Present.

D r .J .B . Dodawasone of the finest lec­turers and psychologists te a t ever stood before an American audience. He was received with honors wherever he appear­ed for the purpose of UlostraUng tee grand tro th s of psychological phenomena. He was so highly esteemed th a t Daniel Web­ster and other distinguished Senators, nearly thirty-two years ago, extended to him a cordial Invitation to lecture in tbe Hall of Representatives a t Washington, on Ms favorite subject—an invitation te a t be gladly accepted. In bin Initial address he said: " Ih a v e received an invitation from several eminent members of toe Doited States Senate, to deliver a leoture on the Science of Psychology—tbe philosophy of disease—the connecting link between mind and m atter—their rseiprocalao tioa upon each other, end the grand operations of nature te a t this science may involve," Id all he delivered twelve lectures, which were subsequently published, and which lo r beauty of thought and clearness In de­tailing tee leading fea tu te i of paf( ' ‘ have never been excelled and probably no t equalled. Since U s day b u t little advance­m ent has been msde la rendering the sub­ject d earer to tee comprehension of the messes. He performed remarkable cures— restored bearing to te e deaf, - sight to tee blind, and made the lame walk.

Nearly tee same line o f experiments adopted by Dr. Dads la brought In requial- tlon by psychologists a t the present day. The fact, however, th a t bu t comparatively little advancement has been made daring tee past th irty years, in shedding addition­al lig h ten psychological phenomena,does no t detract from the m erits of leoturera on tha t subject a t the present time, or dimin­ish tha interest th a t always attaches to their experiments. Among tossa who have become deservedly popular as an expound, e ro f psychology, and whose experiments always have a paoulter fascination, la Dr, Townsend, who has been lecturing forsome tim e a t the W est End Opera House, H is lectures are clear pnd forcible; and tee ease w ith which he gains control o f his subject, Is truly remarkable.

While almost fabulous amount h of money are expended In church edifices, and the maintenance of te e 65,000 ministers who officiate therein, and externally all Is flour­ishing as a green bay trw , yet the contrary Is tee actual state of affairs. The demand for money to carry o u t missionary and other church schemes is Insatiate, and stilt tee peoplears misapplied w ith proper spir­itual food. The Christian Union presents te e aspect of the ease as fell owe i

John Wetherbee Falls into Line, aad takesbis Place in the Ranks of Thole who Op­pose Fraud!

A. F . Ackeriy uaea Mr. Weatherbeo's sam e on bis circulars, as endorsing his me- dinmsblp in the following strong language;

“John Wetherbeeand the late Epee Bar- rent, said the sp irit phenomena through Mr. Ackeriy are the most startling and re­liable ever given In a bright light, either In Europe or A-merioa," ,<-y

To this, Mr, Wetherbeo replies In the Bar.ntr o f Light, of Jan .7 th , as follows:

• I hope Mr. Ackeriy Is a medium, as he claims to bo,and I do not like to say anything to injore the class who have so much to «onload with, b a t I m ust say theatatem ent t h a t ! have quoted from his pahlisbed c ir­cular is wholly false, and the man who would print such an untru th certainly on general principles needs watching,"

How the Individual opinion of Mr. John Wetherbeo Is of little account of Itself, b u t as a straw Indicating the set of the tide o f public opinion, it has great value. N o ’man 1» the ranks' of Spiritualism is more sensitive to this Influence, or more ready to trim sail and toe carried forward w ith lh H e is, I t la true, guarded In his expression, and speaks of mediums as be- Ing, a “class who have so much to contend with," while he really means th a t the fraud» are thla class, for the true rnsdlnm, who remains constant aad pora soon gains the honor and reaped, not only of Spiritu­alists,hut of liOB-Splrltnallata also. However softly Mr. Wetherhoo states the case against Ackeriy, who Is guilty o t a gross deception, he iqasrely plants himself against fraud, and as an ■■exposer'' we welcome him to the tanka of a clean BplrltnaHsm. H e certain­ly how affords a line opportunity for a Bari- n e r q f l tg h t investigation committee. If one la appointed with the camel swallower at Its head, Ackeriy has a splendid opportunity, by hbj bungling Jugglery to besoms a fa­mous m edium,and1 Mr. Watberbeo to come to grief; bu t w efeal sore th a t la tbls case none such will be appointed, for he la the straw floating IP the atmospheric eddy, having Its center in the sanctum o f the Journal for which ha chleflyoontribatas.

Fully satisfied of the tru th and force of the Dootor’a wolds, the reporter bade him good day and called on Mr. Warner a t hla establishment Oh Exchange s tre e t A t first Hr, W arner waslnclined to berettcen t b u t learning th a t the 1 nformetlou desired was about the alarming Increase of Bright's finesse, his manner changed instantly and he spoke very earnestly :

“I t is tree that Brigh t's disease has In­creased wonderfully, nod wo find, by reli­able statistics, tha t in the past ten years its growth baa bean 260 per cent. Look a t the prominent men It has carried off: Everett, Sumner, Chase, WlUon, Carpenter. Bishop Haven and others. This is terrible and shows a greater growth than th a t of any other known complaint, I t m ust he plain to everyone th a t something m ust be done to check this Increase o r there 10 no know­ing where i t may end."

“Do you th ink many people are afflicted .with ft today who do not realize it, Mr. W arner!"

The reporter left Mr. Warner, much Im­pressed with the earnistniHB and sincerity of his statem ents and next paid a visit to B r. 8. A. Lattlmore a t his residence on Prince Street. Dr. Lattlmore, althoogh busily engaged npan some m atters connect­ed with tbcStato Board of Health.of whlch he is one of the analysts, oonrteoosly an­swered the questions th a t were propound­ed him:

A Hilo letter to the Ban Fracojeoo Ohran. feld, gives a graphic account of throwing anlmala Into a crater In order to prevent eruptions. I t appears tb a t the bom t of the missionaries a rd the ir filends ns to the work accomplished by them In Christian­izing the Kanakas received n rude rebuff about tbo end of October lost. Ancient Hawaiian history attribute» the periodical outbursts of the volcano Kilanea to tbe power exercised by a mythical fe rna le - the god dees Fain From the time im mem­orial i t has been the custom whenever a volcanic eruption took place for eume notable chief or chleftalness to proceed to the mouth of tbe crater and to throw vart. ons articles of food or drink Into the burn, log mass as a species of offering. The eruption of 1858 passed over w ithout any each offering being made, bu t tbe avalanche of lava which threatened to destroy the Town of Hilo daring las t fall having as- sumed gigantic proportions, the natives clamored for a repetition of the old ons- tom. N otwithstanding tbe remonstrances of the missionaries and the religions ad­visers of the present royal family, the Princess R u th -a d e te r of tbe Knmehame- ha-accom panied by a number of Kauaka chiefs, came from Honolulu and ascended to the crater. In to tbe burning, seething mass of lava two'or three dozen fowls were thrown, a couple of goats and pigs im­molated. some garlands of Bowers, and a . dozen bottles of whisky, rum and Holland gin served to wash the solid m atter down the insatiable maw of Pole. Strange to say, the day .after this performance, which w oondupw ilh a hulahnla, the lava stop­ped short a thousand yards from the town. The natives attributed this occurrence to the sacrifice made by tbe Princess, much to the disgust of the Gospel-spreaders, who had vainly interposed their objections-
