Spiritual Rappings.

How the Spiritual Rappings are made,
is the heading Of a communication in the
New York Tribune, from Miss Catharine E.
Beecher. She speaks of having taken ride
round the room, with no apparent motive
power, present but the delicate fingers Of a
young lady resting on the table, and was
thus led 10 examine into the matter still fur
thur. Accompanied by three young ladies',
mediums she commenced several expert
ments by requesting to ,CiH the table to move
in certain directions. She found it was un-
der the control of their volition, but only at
certain times. At other times il seemed to
move without being guided by them, and as
she coDjectured by currents Of electricity, that
interrupted their power for a time and then
ceased, and they recovered it again. She
then tried spelling with the alphabet, when
one Of the mediums, without mentioning
her design, willed that the word mother
should be spelled by the knocks. This was
done, and other words were spelled with uni
form success, the knockings being apparent
ly on the surface of the table. Miss Beecher
closes by saying, Either one of the mediums
would mentally lciH 10 have word spelled,
and then the other, without knowing what it
was, would call over the alphabet, and the
word selected was uniformly spelt. A gentle
man and several ladies were called in, and
the thing was repeated with the same sue
cess. My impression is that any person who
is medium in the room, and in some re-
'cular cases persons out of the room, even at
great distance, might regulate the spelling
by their will We give these experiments
for the benefit Of those, and there are few,
who are giving their attention to these mex
picable phenomena.

Escape from a Tiger.

An English paper describes The following
exciting incident:
On the evening Of Christmas day, as a
young woman was careless!y gazing at a
leopard in Baty's menageria, now exhibiting
at Hudders6eld, she sauntered within the
reach OF the tigers den, when one Of the fero-
cious animals thrust forth one Gifts paws
through the wires and siezed her by the coil
Of plated hair behind the crown Of her head.
Fortunatly woman, of slender frame, but
heroic forttude,Swas standing by, and saw
the tiger seize its intended prey. This wo.
man, with extraordinary presence of mind,
seized the girl by the waist, and, notwith-
standing the terrific growing Of the beast,
maintained her hold and pulled with mascu-
line vigor. The tiger still retained its grasp,
and roared and plunged terrifcally. AT
this moment the struggle was fearful one.
The people in the menagerie set up shouts
of alarm, which communicated with the
crowd outside, and produced scene which
may be better imagined than described. AT
length the comb dropped from her hair, the
coil unfurled, aud the young woman was
rescued. leaving the tigers paw full Of her
hair, and silk handkerchief which she had
thrown over her head when the tiger seized
her. The unfortunate girl tainted, bot soon
without having sustained any injury beyond
The fright and the loss Of about handful OF
hair

man, having 'imbibed' rather too freely,
became 'fatigued' in the course Of the
evening, and wisely concluded to retire
for short rest A door a>jar near the
dancing hall revealed, invitingly, a
glimpse of a comfortable bed, of which he
took possession with the prospect of an
undisturbed 'snooze.' 1t SO happened,
howbeit, that this was the ladies' wilh>
drawing room, and he no sooner had
closed Els eyes, than pair Of blooming
damsels came in from the hall, and began
adjusting their disordered ringlets, the
dim light Of the taIIow candle not disclos-
ing thetenant of the bed. The girls had

BARNUM ON RuM.-The New York
Fifth Ward Temperance Alliance, held
an enthusiastic if not a spirited meeting,
an Metropolitan Hall, on Wednesday
evening. Among the conspicuous ora
tors, was P. T. Barnum Esq, ofthe Mu-
scum, who stated that in that city, there
are more than 1000 grog shops, and
allowing that the expenditure in each
averaged $40 per day, the aggregate in
one years time would be $25, $50, 900,
besides the wholesale business. He of
fered, says the Sunday Atlas, if the city
would give him that sum and stop selling
liquor for one year, to pay all the city
taxes, amounting to four millions; send
every family a library of one hundred
good books. three barrels Of -four, and a
silk dress 10 every female, old or young,
asuls OF broadcloth to every male citizen,
ola or young, and ticket to the Museum
for the whole wear.

TheLoonD.

The loon is the largest diver that visits
the waters Of Canada, being as large as
goose, only of longer form. Il visits
US early in the spring and leaves late 10
autumn. Il rises with much difficulty
from the water, but no doubt flies well
when once on the wing When closely
pursued on the water it will not Hy, but
rather futte.s in sort of tumbling flight,
diving il approached too closely. II is shy,
and seated high in'the water with its long
neck, can see objects at great distance
1t often resembles floating log at dis
lance. The color is specked black and
white or whitish dun on the breast
whitish on the abdomen-dusky on the
back, neck, and the wing coverlets. The
hues of the male are brighter, with some
thing of shining green and purple on
the back.-Legs short, dusky, seated very
far back, near the tail-feet very much
webbed-wings very shor;-neck long
eyes large, black.
The cry Of this bird on the silent waters
of our lakes in the spring, on a still day,
is truly solemn and melancholy. We
have often sat and listened to it, when
IFS form could not be seen in the distance.
It's cry in the upper air when flying by
day or night is similar. They float to-
gerher in pairs on all of our inland and
northern lakes, and at times wild pier
cling cry, which like that Of the wild cur
lew OF the western prairies, saddens the
soul, and seems in unison with the wastes
of waters and wilderness around. These
sounds seem like the ancient voice of ma
ture, for here they have sounded for
thousands of years, when no human voice
but that Of the red man started the desert,
and when the mighty mastodons came
down to the waters to drink or feed on
the vast prairies. There is grandeur and
acknowledgements and purity in all
this.
The loon builds its nests amongst rush
es, and breeds in Canada, but we were
never fortunate enough to find its nest
Its food is fish, and it is diver of a
most expert nature. There is diver o.
a smaller species also very common in
Canada, the size of small duck.-Cana-
dian Son of TEN perance.

SPAsMs BEFORE BRANDY.-The follow
ing anecdote was told Of very clever fell
low, who had recently joined the Sons Of
Temperance. After becoming Son,
he went to Mobile on business, and was
taken sick there. The physician called
on him, and, after examining him, pro-
nounced him in a very dangerous position,
and prescribed brandy. The sick man
told him he could not take it. The doc
tor told him that it was proper remedy ;
but the patient told him he could not take
it. The doctor said he must, or he would
have spasms. WELL said the Son Of
Temperance, i will try couple of spasms
first He did not take the brandy, nor
did he have the spasm, but went on his
way rejoicing.

Spirit Rest.
NJ w. G. M'KINNoN.

Ny soul is sad and weary
My thoughts are wandering far
Ger prospect wild and dreary,
Where shines no single star.
There is no earthly pleasure,
No aim that mortals know,
Would yield moments pleasure.
Or bring one fittering glow
Ny very soul is weary
In this struggle with the clay
Zach thought-each scene is dreary,
And pant to be away
To some sphere soul-ennobling--
That land they call "the best
"Where the wicked cease from troubling,
And the weary are at rest"
Zach burning aspiration
Each summer day dream bright
Are quenched in desolation
That turns our souls to blight.
Each hope the young heart cherished
Each link of Friendships chain
Have, in their advent. persisted,
Nor re-unite again.
A weary spoil is round me
The Spirit dark of Cain
In whitening gloom has wound me,
And with clankless chain.
Yet one thing ever haunts
The memory of dream,
YOr which my soul still pants,
A. for morn's first red beam.
The memory Of that vision
OF spheres the stars above
Sill paint, with magic power,
Her form-my spirit-love.
But thought is life-timc's bane-
So saith the wizard song,
And still cry in vain
How long, my soul how longf
