\ bad law should he altered or repealed
But that must be done in a lawful way. Too
often it appears that Just when a community
most needs to have their passions kept under
control Of their reason, they are infamcd by
the violent language and acts Of few, to
whose words an occasion gives a weight which
they are not at all entitled to on their merits
The proceedings at Boston, during the few
days past give an illustration Of this. Taken
in conneXion with the passage of the Nehras-
ka bill, the odious character Of the Fugitive
Slave law was enough Of itself to stir a deep
feeling, when an application Of it was made
in the heart of New England at such CON
iuncture. One would suppose that every
man of sense would say let the entire people
curb in every angry passion. Let all be done
that can be done firlyto protect the captive
from injustice. Let it be done steadily. re-
-olutcly. but coolly and lawfully. If the law
works in his case great wrong, the more
powerfully will good influence be put forth
for its repeal at an early day Violence can
not help anything. 1t may niure the man
for whom 1t processes tn work, 1t will GER
tainly harm some others and iniurc society at
large.
Vet as the report, show. individuals there
were to stir up others to tramllc ON the laws
Of the hnd-to resort to violence of the cX-
trcmc~t kind. The result wa, furious mob.

The drift of the book j. to show that the
whole larago of phenomena and doctrines
which in our day are attracting hcatt"ntion
of many, under the designation Of >lirti>m
spirit rarpings-rommunIon with the dead
-clairvoyancc, Nc.. is but Il representation
of what was done and taught in old pagan
times Us in fact r"-hash of some of the
groS~cst b'otb,u,>m which was ever lracti,cd
The author bring, forward from eminent
writers ample proof of this position He
shows that tn" modern operators hardly
come up yet, in the way of performances, to
the Old ncCromaucnlr.. though they are get
ting ON pretty well in setting forth their most
absurd, corruptinG, and dangerous doctrines
He has evidently Witnessed and read a good
deal Of what the adopts set forth, and what
their followers put faith in and finds moth
M worthy of regard, but much to br shun-
red. Whatever spirits may be concerned in
the acts or the revolutions, he finds abundant
reason to consider dcu>yc and living spirits
working evil and not good among men and
that 1t is not at all necessary to be able to
explain to the understanding OF ON, exactly
how every. or any phenomenon is produced
before one decides that the doctrines of the
spirit writer's are as contemplate as they are
mischie,ous.
From the numerous Greek and Latin quo
tations furnished By the Author, and the
general unfamiiarity of most persons with
ancient and strange speculatiuns, the book is
hot exactly an easy one for all To read II
