"spiritualism" is copied from the
Montgomery (Ala.) Journal. We give
it for the edi6cation Of the mediums
hereabout:
Several circles have been formed in
this place and some interesting exper.
iments are. it is said, nightly per.
formed. On a few evenings since the
spirit Of Andrew jackson was called
up from the T" vastly deep" (why net
let him rest {? and divers questions
were put to him. which it is asserted
were promptly answered. Among the
questions we're the following:
Question.-Where did Capt. Kidd
hide his treasures when his vessel
was driven up North river by the
English frigate !
Answer.-On the north side of
Manhattan lsland-ten feet deep
large amount in chest-marked BY a
large stone seven and a half feet east

Q.-When will Mexico be annexed :?
An three years. Santa Anna
will make war on the United States.
Q.-Are these things true, Gen.
jackson =?
A.-Yes sir, by the eterual..!.
These answers. all but the last,
(which we put in by way of making
the conversation characteristic.) were
received, or believed to have been re.
ceived, from the spirit of Gen. Jack.
