AN INTERESTING TRIAL

Considerable interest is felt, says the Bos-
ton Herald, in the result of trial now in pro
gress at Rochester, N. r., in which Mr..
Charles j. Colchester, a so-called spiritual
medium, is the defendant. He is charged
with breach of the revenue laws In not tax
ing out license as a juggier, and his defense
isthat he is no jugsler tall, but performs his
ieats under spiritual or supernatural in
auences As this involves the decision of
very nice point by the jury, concerned, the
prosecution have summoned all the profession
al prestitigitators, necromancers, magicians,
fakirs, &c, for the purpose of proving that
Mr.. Colchesters phenomena can be produced
by simple earthly and material agencies. The
trial commenced on Saturday, and three or
four witnesses were examined. One of them,
James Rogers, an assistant magician Of Ander-
son, testified that he had seen Colchester pro-
duce raps by placing the outside of his foot
against the legs of the table, He was positive
Of this, and moreover Colchester had told him
that the raps were a humbug. Other witnesses
testified to visiting the defendant for the pur-
pose of obtaining answers to questions. Mr..
James Connolly detected Colchester in an ap-
parent effort to obtain possession of one of
the envelopes which contained the questions.
1t followed that he received no answers. DIR.
Heming had never been able to obtain answers
to questions that he had soldered up in tin
cans, although when he used envelopes he
received replies that were pertinent, but not
often true. Further than this little was
developed on the first day, but the prosecuting
Attorney intimates that the secret OF the
writing on the arm and all the other wonders
will be revealed in the course of the trial.
The public will be interested to see how it
comes out.
Adespatch from Buffalo says the case of
Colchester, the spiritual medium, was given to
the jury last night This morning they re-
turned verdict in accordance with the indict-
ment, viz, that he is a juggler. Judge Hall has
reserved sentence. A large number of spirit
ualists' male and female attended the trial.

DIED, at Post Hospital, Savannah, Ga, on
10th May last, GERsHoM S. only son of
Rufus Whitney, ESQ., of Gorham, aged 20
years and 1-2 months-a private in Co. i.
18th Maine Regiment. 1D9 ~ eap11
Very early in the war young Whitney, then
a mere lad, was impressed with the convic-
ton that he ought to enter the army of the
Union and do what he could in his country's
defence.
Restrained, however, by partial assurance
that he might enlist when of proper age, after
severe struggle between inclination and
sense of duty to his country, on one side and
the claims of ilial obedience on the other, b.
remained at home.
Soon after arriving at the age of twenty his
evident unhappiness at the idea of further de-
tention convinced his parents that it would be
positive wrong to dissuade him longer from
his cherished purpose. accordingly their con-
sent was given, and he enlistened with the
greatest satisfaction under the call for troops
issued December last
His career as a soldier was brief Going
with his Regiment to Savannah in the spring
of 1865, he remained there but short time
before he was stricken down by disease and
taken to the hospital. Under good treatment
he had apparently passed all danger, and
seemed convalescent, when he was suddenly
attacked with Typhoid Pneumonia, which in
few hours ended fatally. N
tbs asouree of real comfort to his friends
that he who had always been dutiful son, an
honest and pure minded boy at home, was
faithful soldier in service, and whether in
camp or hospital maintained his fidelity to
principle to the last. 81, s tsI.I 81
A fellow soldier writes: ssYou can scarcely
feel his loss more than do those who were his
comrades. The noble. Christian example
which he set was such as wouldinspire any one
to initiate it," Another who was with him
during his sickness says: "He told me that he
was a Christian and viewed his sickness as
sent by the hand Of God. That God was his
only trust, and he felt resigned to His will I
have not seen one in the hospital SO resigned
as he was.n
Tho dying in hospital it required no less
courage to meet death with resignation there
than upon the field IN the midst of the
tumult and excitement of battle; and he gave
his life sacrifice to his country just as much
as if he had been slain by shot or shell in
charging upon a battery of the enemy Peace
to his memory-and may his.quiet, selfsacri-
ficing devotion to duty-ato God and his
Countryside an example and stimulus to
Others, gratefully remembered by those Of US
who are permitted to enjoy the blessings Of
civil liberty secured by such costly sacrifices as
have been made for us during the past four

to theworld sovereign remedies that the pub
lie should understand the facts. Be it known then,
that while all the diffusye stimulants called liquors
are impure and all the Tonics containing alcohol are
manufactured with fiery article containing anyl or

these things, but are combination of pure essence
