Foolish Work.

When the bill for the repeal of the Fugitive
Slave aw was taken up by the Senate. on
Tuesday, John Sherman, of Ohio. moved to
amend by e-enacting the act Of February 18th,
1898, and this was adopted by vote OF 2i to
II, but we have news yet of the passage Of
the bill as amended. We hope it won't pass in
that shape. Have the freernen Of this country
poured ont their anathemas upon the od;ous
Fugitive Slave Law these many years, apd At
last abrogased It by military necessity in a civil
war, for mere sham? No. We tell Mr.. Sher.
man tba, the people want no half way action
in this matter bat demand the total abolition of
all laws " hich would ma ze them slave ca.chers
At this time how fnopportune such measure

A Spiritual Sensation in New York.
A letter writer saws:

A letter writer says:
In the spiritual circles OF New York
there is getting to be quite an excitement
over new Medium of somewhat ex-
traordinary character. No one knows
where the modern enchantress comes
from or how she acquired her art. But
ali devout believers say you may take ones
hair and lay it on her magic table, and
forthwith the diviner Of future events
proceeds to give detailed history of the
life of the person from whose head the
hair in question was Topped, and to mark
out their future career. She had almost
reached the zenith of her mysterious
fame when young lady. who was about
to be married, took lock of siiken hair
and laid it on the enchanted slab of
marble
Instantly the prophecies commenced
to give details Of the life of some Young
girl who she said had long since passed
away. The young lady protested that it
was the hair of her intended husband;
but the seer persisted in her story. and
intimated that the young man wore a wig.
The fair inquirer departed in high
dudgeon. but resolved to put the matter
to the test the same evening. SO when her
admirer arrived she aceidently gave his
hair a delicate little pull. .whereupon all the
silken curls came off bodily, leaving the
young mans head perfectly bare. Dis
agreeable as the discovery may have
been. il served to establish the fame Of
the wonderful Medium, who reigns sn-
preme over whole roomfui of clocks"
and is the great sensation of the day
among all the lovers Of spiritual marvels.

Curious Mental PhGnomenon.--Ihe
celebrated DIR. Abercrombie, in one
of his works on the intellectual! fac
ul;ies, tells an anecdote of an Intimate
legal friend of his which is rather
curious than instructive. lie. 1t APP
pears, had it Immediately from the
family of the person to whom the cir
cumstance occurred, and who was 4
distinguished Scotch barrister OF the
last century. In a case OF much dit
ficulty, and involvinga large amount
Of property, this gentleman had been
applied to and it had cost him intense
anxiety and attention. After several
DAYS had been occupied in this man
ner, lie was observed by his wife to
rise from his bed in the night, and
20 to a writing desk which stood in
the bed room he there sat down and
wrote a long paper, which he put
carefully by the desk, and returned
to bed. The following morning he
told his wife that he had had a most
interesting dream-that he had dreamt
of delivering a clear and luminous
opinion respecting case which had
exceedingly perplexed him, and that
he would give anything to recover
the train Of thought which had pass
before him in his dream. She then
directed him to the writing desk
where lie found the opinion clearly
and fully written out, and which was
afterwards found to be perfectly cor
lrect
