A YOU'VE GIRL IN Trance FoRrY- EiGH1
HoURs.-About 10 o'clock last Thursday night
yorng girl named Isabella Ellison, residing in
Washington street, Poughkeepsie, while 1t the
altar 1t . Methodist Church 10 that city, sudden.
y lifted up her hands and Tell backwards, ap.
parently dead. Several persoas Immediately
ran to her assistance, and raised her, when 10
their horror they discovered that her eyes were
glazed and set, her features pale as marble, her
lips colorless, and her feet and hands cold %
those Of q corpse. 1t was shortly discovered
that she yet breathed, when she was conveyed
to her residence, the preacher saying she Was
in trance, and when . member advised that
medical assistance should be procured, he OBJ
jected, saying, 1.-THE Lord has placed her in this
mysterious state, and he will, ut his own time,
raise her to his goodness"
She remained in this state until Saturday eve
ming, excepting . slight movement which oc.
cured on Friday afternoon, when she lifted up
her hand, and made three or four efforts TO
clutch something, when the arm fell back over
the headboard Of the bed. Two or three Of
the women who we're in the house At the time
attempted to replace the arm upon the bed, but
were unable to bend or move it. On Saturday
evening, q number of her friends we're in the
house singing her fAvorite hymn, when she sud
denly lifted up her hand, crying out glory!
hallel9jah!" She then turned to one Of her
friends, and calling her by name, said, "Repens,
repent Oh, if you had seen what have, you
would not live another moment in your sins,
but would pray to God to have mercy upon
you. Ihave been in Heaven; il is lit up with
the glory Of God, and around the throne we're
thousands Of angels, singing sweetly the praises
Of the King Of Heaven. BY and BY Jesus came
past, and spoke to me. also saw the great
gulf, but could scarcely see the bottom Of IT,"
On Friday night number Of persons visited
the house, aud remained singing and praying
until daylight. The young woman was very
weak when she awoke out Of the trance. but
was stronger yesterday morning, and attended
church. This case has caused considerable ex-
element in Poughkeepsie. Y. Commercial.

Mr.. Joseph E. Mcdonald, candidate for. At
torney General, having also repudiated Demo-
cratic principles in . public speech at Terre
Haute, we chop off bis head. Others who take
the same chute will be served the same way.
Candidates OF the Democratic party who re-
fuse to endorse the cardinal principles of the
party cannot receive our support at least. We
tell the candidates of the 9Th of January, that
if they repudiate the action of the 22d Mass
Meeting. and pin their creed to Buchanan,
Bright Fitch and the Lecompton swndlc, they
can't be elected, by long shot. The Demo-
cratic party has made the great principle Of
popular sovereignty test Of Democracy,
and whoever don't choose to subscribe to it,
must look to the President for favors and not
to the people.

Ways.
The Rockport Ind. Democrat takes down the
names Of Daniel Mcclure. Lscompton candidate
for Secretary Of State, and Joseph Mcdonald,
candidate for Attorney General, and for 80
doing gives the following reasons
Inasmuch a. the Administration has made the
Lecompton swindle a test OF Democracy, the
people have also concluded to make it test
The only difference between old Bnck and the
people is, that while his test works one way,
the peoples works another way. The people
propose TO withhold their support for soft head-
ed Democrats, who have violated their pledges,
for the promise Of promotion by the President
When Democrats disregard their pledges and
abandon the beaten track Of DemOcacy, the
people propose to "let 'em CO." In accordance
with this determination of the Democracy of
Indiana, as understood at the 22d of February
State Mass Convention, we haul dorn the
name Of Daniel Mcclure, candidate for Secre-
tary of State, he having repudiated the plat
form of the Democratic party, then and there
laid down.
