GgMr. LOOMS and daughter have

in Clairavoyance. So far as We have
heard, they have been very successful.
Some experiments that we have witness
ed were surprisingly 50. One occur
renee has excited considerable interest.
A gentleman had some twenty dollars
in a purse stolen from him. The lady,
with previous information, described the
purse, the place where it was kept, the
man who stole it, where he was, and
where he was going. The owner ofthe
money Immediately started in pursuit,
found the thief near Freeport, where he
was said to be, brought him back, OBJ
tanned most of the money, and the man,
on examination, " as, on Monday, bound

There is class in this great city,
Upon our word we truly pity;
For, with purse that's very bare,
They try to ape the millionaire.
And many say they are whole-souled,
They are so prodigal with gold.
He is a blood and cuts dash,
As long as he has any cash.
And then he tries the credit plan,
And gets in debt where'er he can.
His bills are daily handed in,
For oysters, livery, and for gin,
And then the first thing that we know
Of him, he's gone to Chicago.
The tailor and the halter say,
How very sly he went away.

And curse his pate he owes me stiA.
The washerwoman calls in vain,
And goes away to call again.
His board bill stares him in the face,
Where'er he goes. in every place.
The girls are very sad to hear,
That their old beaux so very dear,
Who used to treat them on the best
Ice cream and oysters and the rest,
Should be obliged to run away,
His many little debts to pay.
Oh! what noble hearted fellow.
They say, then burst out in a below.
How kind he always used to be,
And no one ever was so free,

When such men fail, O! what crash,
So many debts-So little cash.

The DEAD SgA.-The old story that

. -.
no creature can live on or near the Dead
Sea, is exploded. The lass traveller in
that region, French savant, writes as
follows" From thesumm:t ofthe noun
tain which we have just described, this
strange sea, which all writers describe
as presenting the most dismal aspect,
appeared to us ike splendid lake, gilt
tering in the sunshine, with its blue
waves gently breaking on the sands of
the softest beach. Through the trans
parent water appeared a white tint, which
enlivened the shore. We guessed at
once that this appearance was owing to
the salt crystalized under the water, and,
when near, we find that our conjecture
is right. Are we now to be convinced
that no living thing can exist on the
shores Of the Dead Sea, as has been so
oft repestedl We ascertain the contra
~ fact the very moment We touch the
shore.
s. A flock of wild ducks rises before us
and settles on the water out of gunshot,
where they begin sporting and diving
with perfect unconcern. Asweadvance,
beautiful insects show themselves on the
gravelly beach; rocks are flying and
screaming among the rent cliffs of the
steep hills which border the lake. Where,
nen, are all those poisonous vapors
which carry death to all who venture to
approach them ? Where' Inthe wri-
tings of the poets, who have emphatic
ly described what they have never seen.
We are not yet five minutes treading
the shores of the Dead Sea, and already
all that has been said of it appears as
mere creations of fancy. Let us then
proceed fearlessly forward, for, if any
thing is to be dreaded here, certainly it
is not the pestilential influence of the
finest and most imposing lake in the
world.

ed an exceedingly stern judgement upon
the past acts of his majesty. and predict
ed for him all sorts of troubles for the
future. This, the Empress thought, in
directly proved the genuineness of the
manifestation, as the natural desire of
the medium, if she could control the re-
plies. would be to render them pleasing
to Napoleon. Their Majesties indulge
quite often in this amusement

American Sunday School Union.

On behalf of the american Sunday
School Union, we ask from the friends
of religion in our State special consid-
Grafton of its work and its wants. Its
past labors and its mission in the future,
claim for it such consideration. AS a
National and catholic institution, com
posed of Christians of the various evan
gelical denominations, it is unrestricted
in its benefcence by the limits Of State
or sect. Gladly would it aid every COM
munity in our land that has children to
be taught or youth to be reclaimed.
The two grand objects of the Society
/. To establish a Sunday school in
every destitute neighborhood.
2. To supply these schools and the
youth of our country with Christian
literature suited to their age and circum-
stances.
If we would have the Bible believed
and its precepts obeyed in this land, We
must put forth more earnest efforts for
the religious trainingo of theYoUNG. That
economy is most short sighted that would
leave the young to grow up in sin to be
reclaimed when hardened in it by age
and habit. We therefore call upon all
the friends of religion to aid US in send
lug forth godly men to gather into Sun
day-schools the multitudes of children
and youta now wandering in paths of
ignorance, irreligion and vice.
During the last business year, the con
tributions to the Missionary fund Of the
Society amounted to $60,434, an ad
vance of $4,000 upon those of the pre-
ceding year.
We were thus enabled to employ 157
missionaries for periods varying from
two to twelve months. Through their
efforts, one thousand screen hundred and
four neC schools pere established, and
239S schools visited, revived and sup
piled with books. More than sixty
thousand children were thus gathered
into Sunday-schools, mostly from the
fields, the streets and the hunting grounds.
Some ten or twelve thousand persous
were induced to add themselves to the
number of the instructors of the young,
and more than 100000 instructive books
were put into aetive circulation by sale
and grant-by these missionaries alone.
These numbers, however, serve but
rs an index to the good accomplished.
The knowledge thus impaired, and in
the habit of reading thus formed, Great
a demand'for the Bible, and for books
of high moral tone. The influence of
infdel and licentious presses is neutral
lied. Sabbath dissertation is ar ested.
The word of God ishonored. Children
and teachers are converted. The fact
of assembling on the Sabbath, leads to
desire for the services of the ministry,
and thus the Sunday-school becomes
the forerunner of the Shurch. This We
state not as theory, but as fact.
There are at the present day, not
thouands merely, but millions of neg
lccted children in the United States. 1t
is for these-the untaught youth Of Tie
oountry,-beyondhcf2ldsof the church
es, that We make our appeal. Weearn-
estly call upon every Christian man and
woman TO aid us in our effort 10 plant
the Sunday school with its long train of
blessings in the waste places of our land

HIt is limited by the knowing ones,
that the liquor law is defeated beyond
reasonable doubt The Senate will
never recede from their present position,
because, as it is asserted, and as the peo-
pie were warned last fail, the Governor
is bound to veto the bill should it be-
come law, and the Senate prefer TO
to take the responsibility OF killing it up
on themselves, rather than throw it up
on him. The people will grow wise,
we trust, by and by, after the intlietioh
of a few such experiences.
