Resolutions Of the National Spiritual
Convention, at Chicago.

Resoiued, That the authority of each in.
dividual soul Is absolute and final, in decid-
ing for himself or herself what is true or
false in principle, and right or wrong in
practice; Therefore, the individual, the state,
or tho church, that attempts to control tho
opinions or the practice of any man or wo-
man, by an authority outside of bis or her
own soul, is guilty OF q fsgrant wrong.
Rssotred, That the hour 10 come to recog-
nize the eternal unity of science, philoso.
ply and religion; that science delivered
from religion is atheistic; that religion, d-
vorcsd from science and philosophy, leads
to fauaticism, superstition and bigotry, and
can end only 10 error, darkness aud crime.
RSsoired. That the earth, like the air aud
light, belongs in common to the children of
men, aud on it each human being is alike
Its child BY virtue of its exist
ence. has an equal aud inalienable right to
80 much Of the eartbs surface as is neces-
sary, by proper culture, to support it and
perfect it's development, and none has
right to any more then all laws authorizing
and sustaining private property in land for
the purpose of speculation, and which pre-
vent man or woman from possessing land
without paying for it. are as unjust as would
be laws compelling him to pay for air and
light, aud ought 10 be at once and forever
repealed.
RESOLVED, That any people or class of
people who demand the attention of man
kind, and challenge the faith and philoso-
ply of the ages, ought not only to be able
to present valid reasons therefor, but also
to present clear and defpite statement of
their own System.

From the summit Of the mound, far away
over the plain we could see glistening,

bright rays of the morning sun. This

The Outside Passanqer.

some years ago. young lady who
was going into northern county in Eng
land, took a seat in a stage coach. For
many miles she rode alone, bnt there was
enough to amuse her in toe scenery
through which she passed, and in the
pleasing anticipations that occupied her
mind. She had been engaged as gov
erness for the children of an earl and
was now travelling TO his seat. AT mid
day the coach stopped at an inn, at which
dinner was provided, and she alighted
and ga, down at the table. An elderly
ran followed and sat down also. The
young lady arose, rang the bell, and ad .
dressing the waiter, said: "There is an
outside passenger! canrot dine with an
outside passenger" The stranger bowed,
saying: 81 beg your pardon madam! 1
can go into another room," and immedi-
ately retired. The coach soon afterwards
resumed its course, and the passengers
their places. Atlepgth the coach stopped
at the gate leading TO the castle 10 Which
tie young lady was going; but there was
not such prompt attention as she expect
ed. All eyes seemed directed TO the out
side passenger, who was preparing 10 dis
mount. She beckoned and was answered:
GAS soon as we have attended to bis lord
ship we will! come to you.''
A few words Of explanation eusued,
and to her dismay she found that the out
side passenger, with whom she had
thought it beneath her TO dine, was not
only a nobleman, but that very nobleman
Of whose family she hoped to be an in
mate. What could she do? How could
she bear the interview? She felt very i'll,
and the apology sent for her not appear

gushed forth from his patriotic soul incohe-

through the weary march. and braced him
up when entering the field of blood. in de-
fense Of his country. Finally he sank away
