SPIRITUAL RAPPINGs.- # |

I SPIRITUAL RAPPlNGS.- IL =
Spirits have made their appear
ance in this county, and Have pro-
duced no little excitemeht. The
medium is a little girl, 10 or IL
years old, living five or six miles
from this place. A humble b Of per-
sons have visited her, and have dis
tinctIy heard the "rappings," but
cannot detect any imposton--some
are firm believers in the ''spirits,
and we would not be surprised if
they should become fit subjects for
the lunatic asylum. 1t is reported
that there was a slight manifesto
! ton of the Spirits" in town few
evenings since, but suppose it is a
hoax. Z
The New York Tribune give
the follow ing, as the way in which
the spirits may be raised:
"Let party of six or eight per-
sons SIT around a common pine ia
| bic for twenty minutes TO half an
hour, with the palms Of their hands
held flat on the table; it is not nee
essary that their minds should pay
any attention to the process, or the
ordinary conversation be suspended;

charged with the mysterious fluid
that it begins to move; then rise
from it, push d way your chairs, still
holding your hands, though it is not
necessary to touch it, and il will
turn around from end to end, and
even proceed rapidly about the
room, without any visible agent, on
which excursions The persons must
bear it company, OF the current is
broken and the movement stops
Thissimple experiment may be ca
silly tried; it requires no faith and no
outlay of physical or moral strength;
and the result with a table that is
not too heavy, is pretty sure to fol-
low; at least we have known CT sew
eral instances in which ii has been
most astonisbingly produced. =
