SPIRITUALIsM AS A ScIENcE.-At the SEES
sion of the association of learned gentlemen
at Springfield on Monday, Mr.. Prince of Long
Island endeavored to introduce the subject Of
spiritualism without effect. The following

debate
Resolved, that a committee of six mem.
bers be now appointed TO take into considera-
ton the claims of spiritual connection to be
ranked among the sciences, and that the COM
mittee report at the next annual session OF
this assocition."

INTERESTING LETTER OF HORACE MANN
The following private letter was written to a
young man who was scholar in one of the
district schools which awakened the interest of
MIR. Mann in his early life. The letter was

into two bodies, each claiming to be the New

developed between them, both indulging in
bitter determinations, charging each other with
manifesting spirit of recrimination and mis-
rule, with encouraging a forward and un-
sanctifed ministry" or with assuming the
whole control of the church," and making
it an instrument of oppression" &C., &C. The
Friends Review of Philadelphia, notices this
" discrganizing spirit with SORROW. and con-

| THE REVISION Communicative are not
surprised to hear some expression of dissatis-
faction at the course that has been taken by
| the Committee on the Revision of the Statutes
They were appointed to examine the work of
the Commissioners and prepare it for the action
of the Legislature; and not to propose new
laws, nor to embody in the work important
amendments to those already existing. They
have not taken this view of their duties.
From day to day they have proposed and
discussed important amendments to the
statutes, proceeding as if they were en-
dowed with the prerogatives of a legisla-
tive body, or, at least, a body specially
charged with the business of framing and pro-
posing new laws. Such course seems I'M
warranted, and the more it is considered. the
more it will provoke criticism. The Daily
Advertiser finds it necessary to defend the
course taken by the Committee; but its de-
tense is not at all effective. 1t is in substance.
that the Committee have not "made MANY and
important changes in existing laws :" only two
hundred and thirty three amendments in the
- SA-AeNNH P"5SS' ADub lIOh uOGS lllS
meet the charge that they went beyond the
sphere of their duty when they undertook to
make one such change
A previous legislature carefully selected
men of eminent ability to codify and arrange
the statutes These men have done the work ::
and the Revision Committee was not appoint
ed to do it over again, nor to do anything
more than ex anime it carefully, correct pal
pable mistakes if any should be found, and
put themselves in condition to report it to
the legislature. We trust that all they do
more than this, will be summarily rejected,
for it is out of place and can not fail to
disfgure the work of the Commissioners.
If new laws are to be enacted. or old
ones amended, we shall, at the proper
time, hear all about it from the Legislature.
1t is a matter which the Revision Committee
is not authorised to determine 1t is stated
that Hon. Joel Parker, chairman of the Com.
missioners, has become 30 much disguised with
the course the committee have taken, that he
has ceased to attend their sessions. We do

The apology which Gov. Wise's letter need
ed very much is partially afforded by the
statement that it was confdentially written to
politician in New York, who lent it confden-
TALLY to Mr.. Cassidy, of the Albany Argus,
who showed it in confidence to several politi-
cal friends, and that somewhere in this series
of condolences copy of the document got in
to the hands of newspaper reporter, and so
into print. Its disclosure is charged upon the
Albany regency, with the view to defeat
Wise.
1t is stated that Mr.. Douglas has written
another letter, on the African Slave Trade,
and the Naturalization question. He main
tains that the Constitution recognizes no diff
ference in the degrees of protection accorded
by the Government to native and naturahzed
citizens Touching the slave trade, he says
that in the Convention which framed the Con-
stitution, South Carolina and Georgia wished
to continue the slave trade; Virginia, Pennsyl-
vania, New Jersey and New York wished 1t
terminated New England was passive in the
matter South Carolina and Georgia finally
:
1903, with the understanding that it should
then end 1t therefore became the vital COM
promise of the instrument, and mnst be held
as sacred as the instrument itself. In this
view, Douglas declars himself to be irrevoca-
bly, opposed to the re-opening of the African
slave trade.
The Detroit Tribune, referring to the next
Presidential election, speaks of VIM. II. Sew
ard of New York, as "the first choice of the
people of Michigan in the last two Presidential
contests, and NOW !" The Milwaukee Ssnti-
mel SAYS that the State of Wisconsin shares in
this sentiment, and will gladly give her electo-
raj vote in 1860 to Senator Seward, "as the
ablest statesman of the day"
In Wisconsin an interesting controversy is in
progress relative to the nomination for Govern
or The Milwaukee Democrat says, carl
! Shurz is among the most prominent candidate
for nomination. He may be nominated-in-
deed his nomination is probable" But the only
doubt raised is caused by the fact that his NOM
nation might be considered as cowardly con-
session to the German element-so sensitive
are the people of the Northwest against any
recognition of nationalities.
