JUDGE EDMONDs ON SPIRITUAL1sM.--Judge
Edmonds is preparing series Of papers on
the subject of Spiritualsm. The first num-
Der, now published, shows how many sacri-
fees the Judge is ready to make on account
of this new deluson. The folio wing is an
extract:
Since then have been a firm and unwav-
erng believer in the idea that the spirits of
the dead do and can hold communication
with us. l have been sorely tried, tempor-
ally and mentally. | have been excluded
from the associations which once made life
pleasant to me. have felt, in society
which once hoped to adorn, that l was an
object marked for avoidence if not for alb
horence. Courted once, and honOred among
men, have been doomed to see the nearest
and dearest turn from me with pity, if not
disgust. Tolerated rather than welcomed
among my fellows; at an advanced age, and
with infirm health, compelled to begin the
world again, and oh amid what dis
couragements With the subject so dear to
me tainted with mans folly and fraud !;
destined to see fools run mad with it, and
rogues peryerting it to nefarious purposes; !;
meeting in it's daily walks-owing to the
sad instrumentalities used much that was
calculated to discourage and dishearten,
and behoding how the world, for whom this
glorious truth comes, turns from it and re.
viles it; have never, for one moment, fall
tered from that hour in my belief. 1t is not
nv fault that have not. 1t is no merit in
me that have persisted.

INTOLERANCE AT TIE SoUTH.-TeXas papers
give particulars Of the proceedings Of several
meetings recently held in Fannin county, for
the purpose of taking measures to expel the
members of the Methodist Church North,
who are accused of being abolitionists. At
one meeting, a committee Of so was appointed
to wait upon Bishop Jayne with a warning.
They performed their duty on a Sunday
while the Bishop was engaged in morning
services in the church. 1t was also resolved
that the Methodist Church North could not
be tolerated in Texas and that it must be put
down by force, if necessary. A COMMITTEES
was appointed to draft other resolutions, to
be acted upon at an adjourned meeting.
With all our boasted freedom Of opinion in
this country, it appears that there is one
section of it where it will not be tolerated.
Nothing more plainly exhibits the rottenness
and injustice of the ''institution" of slavery
than the desperate means resorted to in order
to support it.
