Sco,t-sfter bis death. We 6nd the fol
lowing report of her remarks in the Her
aid:
In brief. Miss Bullene declared thai
a bout ten hours "of your time" before
Gen. Scott's decease. a circss OF spirit,
was formed, BY direction Of the Head
Centre of the spirit land. to assist the old
hero in dying. This circle was compos'
ed of seven persons. Ave Of whom wer'
members of the Generals family. and
consisted of two middle-aged ladies. one
young lady. one middls.a aged gentleman
and q lad. The other two spirits in. ths
circle were Washington and Lincoln
These circles were always formed ovel
dying psrsops. she, ,sx plsined. in order to
facilitate their death and to instruct the
spirits themselves. In the case Of Gen
Scott. it required about four bonrs "o
your time" to perfect the communication.
aud then the General felt better than be
had for fifteen years "of your time" be.
fore. About six hours "of your time
prior to the Generals DEATH, the spirit,
began to manufactsre for, him spiritual
body BY drawing, The. spiritual essence

completed. the General had a delightful
dream. in which be reviewed the msmo'
ries Of the past and saw the glories Of th.
future. His son then severed the few
electric cords that bound the Generals
spirit to his body. and the General died
1t pains MS to record such details ss these
but what else can faithful reporter do:

After the Generals death he was IN.

His mortal body lay on earth before him,
and he was attired in 9 spiritual body

an hour "of your time" 10. enjoying the
exhilarations of his new life. in convers.

ed this country at his loss was contrasted
BY the joy which greeted his entrance in.
to the spirit land; and as there was every
manifestation of grief here, so there was
every form of rejoicing in that sphere
Then the General relapsed into nncon.

THE SPIRITUAL ocsTUME.
First of stl, Mics BnIlene asserted that
the dress which spirits wesr is com posed
of exhalations ftom their thoughts and
spiritual bodies. ard coIored by their id =.
insyncrssies and desires. These exhals.
lions begin at the base of the brain. and
form positive electric cnrrent. which
leaves the face clear, and clothes all the
rest of the body in a semi-transpsrent
1rspery. The spirits can ornament this
1ress in any way they choose. by simply
wishing for the ornaments; bat bad spir-
ts wesr dark eolors, and the purer Q
'pirit is the whittier and brighter is its
costume. Gen. Scott on the occasion of
his reception was arrsyed in a sui. Of
,early white or silver gray, Indicative Of
he fact that although 8 very good man
le had bis failings. which prevented his
iress from being perfectly pure. On his
BOSOM there wen two or three purple
spots. emblematicsl Of duties which he
lad left unperformed. On bis left shoul-
Ter were three glittering stars, the insig
lis OF his rank. Across bis heart was an
ye. glowing. flashing and CLEANING
With joy unspeakabfs." On his left sids
vas a scabbard of purest gold. In his
light hand he held q two edged sword Of
rucst steel. its, hilt adorned with dia-
noni'. prrala. emaralds and topsx. "the
Of the fonr nations whose future
ow appears to be prophetic"-whatever
hat may mean. This sword, said Miss
'ul!ene. significantly. was pointed toward
be crown of England. a 80 which Won
ray interpret as you will. As there
'ers no Fenians. present. this hit of the
.cturess fell dead.
