spiritual vibrations in different parts of the city in the
opinion OF many has become fixed fact That certain
weakminded persons children and antedeuyau grannys
should believe in such matters is not matter of surprise
but when sincere men who occupy high social positions
and noted for extensive information intel
lecs take the cause Of the spirits and openly proclaim
their belief in them. the subject demands investigation
More than eminent divine in midst has admitted
The existence Of the manifestations without pretending
to give solution Of their That the tlumpnga
occur there can be no possible doubt for in favor the
fact we have the strongest human testimony The how
| and the wherefore is matter for investigation
Several spirit circles have lately been formed in the
green and rural portions of the city At Temperance Hall
supdry meetings have taken place. but as the convoc
lions have been private, nothing than vague and
detached rumors Of the dongs therein have become
known to the unuitiated II is stated us fact that
at one of these meetings where table had cut up
sundry evolutions, and danced around variously a

round sum that said locomotive table would not move
in the direction where he sitting No sooner
was the rreVerent banter made than the table imme-
dately became active and slid up against him. distance

the 1nanate of course astonshed the ncreduous ind

diSmay Without protesting to be acquainted with the
cause OF these vibrations of those who have been
present at the meetings pretend to doubt the their
existence Some of the mediums pretend to converse
WIN the spirits OF their deceased relatives and to be in
formed by them of the state of matters both here and
hereafter Those subned assert that the spirits
have become visible to their corporeai vision distinct in
form and feature in life. They say that they have
conTersed with them face to face and that from inforna
ton received that bright mlcnal age is at hand when
all shall have their eyes opened to the secrets OF the inner
world all shall be subject to the instruction OF these
IS just men made perfect and all shall believe in the
same spiritual religion.
Certain worldly minded individual having speculation
in eyes, ave thought TO make their intimacy with
the spirits instrument for the service of mammon One
man wants know t'e price of cotton in Liverpool

II is to be hoped that the spirits havngs regard for equal
