SPIRITS, &c-We hear that some of the
friends of the woman, Brown, who is soft
soaping those who will listen to her on the
subject of spiritualism, say that she has a
right, under charter granted to some Chi
cage association, to perform the marriage
ceremony. 5.e- .g..rs.
By the way, we hear that, at her harangue,
last evening, she said that her namesake,
John Brown, was now an angel; that Lin
| coin always consulted the spirits, in regard
to the war, and John Browns spirit, especi-
ally; that John Browns spirit controlled the
war, &c, &c.-in other words, the John
| Brown angels and the negroes carried on the
war. Can fanaticism, folly and humbug
further go? An old horse thief and mHr.
derer transformed into an angel to control
and direct the affairs of this great nation =
We pity the dupes and despise the inventors
| of this shameful imposture..

FERRY PRoFITs-WRAT THE PEOPLE HAVE
LosT.-Party pressure, party screws, and the
party lash have deprived the people of this
city of source of revenue which might have
been made to pay the ordinary expenses of
the city government for all time togcome.-
The party lash, in the hands of some 10 or
30 of the radical leaders, has done it. The
men who have done this, are, to use the
words of one of their number, 'the men who
carry the republican party of this city in
their breaches pocket" and who have used
their overseer's whip to lash Senator Webster
into submission and compel him to do an
act against the interests of the people of this
city. These men who swing their overseer' s
whip over the backs of the people succeed
ed in compelling some 20 or 80 of their
subjects to sign away their rights, and IN
fooling some dozen or fifteen democrats
to sanction the outrage. And the con-
trolling men in this outrage, 1.-The men
who carry the radical partyof this city IN theli
breaches pocket are the very men who have

him deeently in regard to the rights granted
him for railroad purposes. The conclusion
is irresistible that, if Spencer, Robinson 4
Co. were democrats they could not have OBJ
tanned the charter.
Opposed to these ID or 20 men, who swlns
their whip over the heads of the republican
party, and to the less than one hundred they
we're able to command, were some 500 mel
of this city who signed remonstrance
against the renewal, and that remonstrance
was placed in Senator Webster's hands,
Five hundred more names could easily hav,
been obtained If the petition had been ongel
circulated. Nine tenths of all the pc oples Of
this city were and are opposed to the renew
al of that charter A large majority of the
capital of the city was opposed to it. 4
large majority of the tax payers were oppos
ed TO it and majority of the business mel
were opposed to it. But the party whip wa
