residence Of perhaps a score Of his relatives and
friends who had passed into the spirit world, on
small slips Of paper at the same time holding book
between bis hand and the medium, so that he could
not see what was written. Each of the slips thus
written on by him was rolled up in the form of a
J bullet While Mr.. 8. was writing DIR. X. said 10
me, "Why don't you write something2' answered
that during that citing wished my friend to have
the full attention of the spirits. He replied that it
would make no difference as to that, but that the
more papers there were written, the satisfac-
tory the tests would be. Accordingly | wrote on
nine slips OF paper, and rolled them up in bullet
FORM and put them with those written and rolled up
by Mr. s., who took them all in bis hands, and
mixed them together so that one could know
which paper either of us had written upon, nor what
was written upon it, and they were all together
placed on the table before us, numbering about
thirty.
Taking each Of the paper bullets, separately in his
hand, DIR. Redman requested that if the spirit bear
ing the name written on that paper was present. he
should signify the same by raps. Affirmative res
ponses to several Of these questions being received
DIR. X put the several papers thus designated, by
themselves upon the table. Mr. Sanderson being
about to open one Of the papers thus designated Dr.
X. requested him to wait a moment when instantly
his hand systematically seized pencil, wrote Oh u
sheet Of paper lying before Mr.. S., very rapidly,
upside down 10 that Mr.. s. could read it without
turning the paper, communication which seemed
to be the greeting Of an aiiectionae relative and
signed it Emily +. Sanderson.' Mr.. 5. tleu
unroed the paper bullet which he had been STOPPED
from unroling before, and found it to be one on
which he had written the name OF Emily +. San
ders0n." Other spirits whose names were written
on the paper bullets gave similar tests TO Mr. ST. and
in the communications which ensued upon the AN
nouncement of their names they gave many Incl
dental and unsought proofs of their identity.
During the time this conference between Dir. 8.
and his spirtfrends was going on, spirits were COM
municatng with me in like manner. Prominent
among these was one who purported to be my sister
Charlotte. As l WAS writing questions and receiv-
ing her answers, relating TO her spiritual state and
progress, my hand often thrus! aside by the me-
dunn before the question that was upon the mind
was halt written and pertinent and full replies were
written under the partialy-written questions. The
same thing occurred to Mr.. Sanderson.
While these questions and answers were going on,
one OF the spiritanswers was suddenly interrupted,
when but half written, and the words were abb
ruptly written, I" old Hickory $50 c0iied) SITS on
the sofa" Immediately the character aud tone Of
the manifestations changed, and in bold and Wig
orous hand written the following

1 The remarkable correspondence OF these prophe-
cics with the events of the rebellion thus far de-
veloped, may excite the suspicion among those who
are not personally acquainted with Inc that this
statement may have been recently got up 10 meet
the facts that have already transpired. To meet any
such possible suspicion, i have cited the circuni-
,tantial occurrences of the evening" and referred 10
q third party, Nr. Sanderfon. who was present on
the OCCASION and who, If appealed TO, viii doubt
less be willing give his cOrrobOratIve testimony ar
to the occurrences here related and the date Jan.
"a, 1861 on which they took place. have further
10 add, that soon after this conference with the
spirits, l submitted copy OF the communication
from Gen. jackson, with the questions and answers
included in the interview, to one Of the editors of
me Nep- York Herdid, requesting publication OF
the same ia that Journal, after bringing the nature
of the subject fully TO his attention, that he must
vet remember il; but slough somewhat en-
coursged by him to expect publication OF The arti.
Gle, it never, to my knowledge, appeared in that
paIer. Moreover, shortly after the interview re-
ierred TO-, l showed the original manuscript of the
communication from Gen. Jackson and related the
facts it contains, ~ many friends in private. and
also read the SAME 10 conference Of Spiiituhlists
held in Clinton Hall, Aston Place, this city, when it
was reported in the proceedings OF the meeting and
published in The Banner u Light (Bostonl under
date of Aug. 81 1861.
The announcements made by The spirit Of Gen.
jackson IN great degree Influenced me 10 confer
with many people TO what action should be taken
in case OF of rebeou and 10 Issue circu-
lars aud to mold meetings al my house, as early IN
the Dist OF March, 1861 and which were continued
aiterward, and resulted in the great Union meeting
held in Union square on the 18th OF April, lSbl.
! am aware that spirits have made many prophe-
oes aud communicated many in ortant facts ieli.l-
ing TO the war; and have otherwise exerted an I'M
portaIt influence upon the pending struggle. Oi
ihese spirit disclosures and interpretations, am de-
sirous 10 make collection, and those who know oil
