THE VALUE or BEAUTY. Mamma,

. No, ny dear; but beauty is Of 10 con-
sequence"
Now. what an unnitigated flo, ana
every day Of the child's life she will be
finding It out. Why not tell the truth =
that beauty IS Of consequence, as is every
thing that God has made 3 Why no, tell
her Il a the eye IS irresis,ably fascinated
by il! That handsome child Is always
more noticed By stranger thtn plain
one Just a when one walks in u gar

il aside, Or passes It for one less p)ren-
tious, whose sweetness will endure long
after its pale hues shall have fad a away.
l. l. right for people TO be pleasing, and
i. is not only right, but duty, for every
body to look as beautiful as they can
Tell your child all this; but tell h.r that
for the higher order Of beauy, something
besides the body must be decorated. Tell
her thai the soul must he washed of ba
passions-the dust o. Sc fshness wiped of
and its chambers aired o. the foul atm0s-
phere Of uncharitableness. Tel her how
resplendent the soul can make the BODY
low, like light within crystal vase.
Ii makes fair what else were dark and

fore it, men bow down, husiing the hot
breath Of worldllness, as before Col own

We are good to make men of.

are all cod to make men and women of.
We do not mean. nor did that liltle boy,
that we are merely to grow up to the size
of men and women. No, we mean a
great deal more than this. You are TO
make persons who will help 10 do good in
the world No one wko is not useful,
aud who does not seek to make the world
better, deserves the name of man or wo-
man.
You sh5uIl not forget that, if tn re are

| Eight years ago, when the phenomena known
as spiritual manifestations first created any con,
siderable sensation in this country the cry O.
"humbug" resounded on all sides, coming from
all classes in the community. Today, that cry is
superseded by the more honorable ones of "fa-
natcism,' - ''delusion," &C., &c.
Few doubt the honesty and sincerity OF the dis
ciples of the modern school, and they are number
ed by thousands. And there are many among
the intelligent portion of every community who
tacitly believe or openly countenance the teach
ings of this new religion. Skeptics, who inves-
tigater cease the cry of 'humbug, and are either
silent respecting the character OF these manlies-
tations, else they acknowledge their utter ma
blllty to ascribe any other authorship 10 them
than that claimed by the Spirltuaists' when is
virtually acceding TO the tTuthiuIneSs OF tnsir
claims, No one who has given the matter far
and impartial Investigation, can say tney are not
OF spiritual origin, without mourning the respon-
si6ility, on their part of being oohgea TO prove
tohGt they are
Natural or mental philosophy signally fail to
throw any light upon those phenomena. Certain
men of great scientific attainments have been
rash enough to enter the lists as ehahFlohS OF
material philosophy. and have been selenuncaiiy
endorsed by these unpretendlng alsciples OF the
new faith their confidence, and arrogant as
sumption, with all the learning of the schools to
back them, have afforded them no service, and
they are contented now to retire from the lists,
leaving the honoIs of the conflict to be worn BY
their victorious competitors.
On Sunday evening, Mrs. Cora l.. V. hatch
lectured while in a trance state. to an intelligent
audience of some one hundred and twenty peo-
pie, assembled in Washburn Hall
Those who heard her that egenlng will readily
listen to her this evening, at the same place and
we sincerely hope that many others will avail
themselves of this opportunity to test her pow
ers as a speaking medium. A committee will be
chosen by the audience whose dHty it shall be to
fix upon some question of philosophical, reli-
gious moral characer, as a subject for
the evenings discourse. The beauty of ex.
preston, the depth of reasoning, and the com.
prehensive knowledge evinced by Miss Hatch,
while in a trance state, are a sufficient induce
ment for all persons. of whatever religion, sect,
or party, to hear her this evening To those
who have never witnessed anything of this char
acter, our advice is, neglect not this excellent
opportunity; and if they can tell by what other
means than that claimed for the medium, she is
enabled, at the age Of eighteen, to illustrate in
the most beautiful language clearly, forcibly, and
most eloquenuy expressed, questions that have
puzzled the greatest geniuses of every age, we
will accord to them powers of discernment far
superior to that of ordinary mertals We wOuds
most respectfully commend to them, however,
prudent husbandry of all their caution, lest they
too rashly enter the lists in defence of their cher
ished faith in materialism. G.

MoDEsTY IN PRIVATE LIFE NOT INcoNsIsT-
EMIT WITH GREAT BoLDNEsss AS AN AUTaoR.-
1t is strange some men who are shy in private,
run into bold egotism in public. they who
are much in the habit OF addressing the pub.
lie, acquire confidence of success and fall
into degfee Of familiarity with their thou.
sands of unseen and unknown readers, that
rs quite unaccountable to those who have
confined themselves to the intercourse of
private lie, and would .shudder t. see their
own names in print. 1t is like uttering i'm
prudent and foolish things in room. No
rebuking eye kindles blush upon the speak
er's cheek. The author and the public do
not meet face to face. The former sends out
his oracles or his egotisms from the cunceal-
ment Of his quiet study. William Hazltt,
the famous essayist, was a striking ilustra-
ton of the strange contrast which person
may,present between his public and his priv
ate manners. He was bold and egotistical
author, but he was singularly shy man. In
addressing the whole world, he was daring
and dogmatical but y small private COM
pany, If any strangers were prosentshe could
scarcely muster up sufficient courage to go
through the ordinary ceremonies of SOCIAL in
tereourse. -Literary Recreations.
