My Experience in Spiritual Circles.
BA JOHN JENKINS.

Mrs. Jenkins CHATS my wife) is a Spirit
ualst. She believes in rappings, tippings,
magnetism, conditions, and impressions.
She dctes on the Spiritual papers, and gener-
ally holds one in her lap and reads about the
Summer-land and beautiful angels with
wings, while she darns my stockings and
sews on my shirt-buttons.
Mrs. Jenkins belongs to a Spiritual circle,
and visits it once week to get communica-
tions from Napoleon Bonaparte, Socrates,
John Brown, Lorenzo Dow, and several other
noted gentlemen. st. Paul used to drop in
occasionally and have a friendly chat with
the circle, but one of the members got into a
debate with the old fellow one night on the
woman question, and, after some pretty hard
talk, he left in high dudgeon, and has not
been heard from since.
All the mediums who came into the neigh
borhood used to come to our house to ' put
up" Mrs Jenkins was such " congenial
spirit" they said, and the magnetism of the
house was !" so soothing ~ | used to won.
der, sometimes, whether nv wife's extras in
the cooking line. which she used to get up
whenever these visitors were expected, hadn't
something to do with the magnetism of the
house; but | kept these thoughts to myself,
and never mentioned them to my wife, for
fear that should hurt her feelings.
There was one medium, named Blifkins,
a tall, lank fellow he was, with long hair,
sharp, wicked looking black eyes, and dis
NAL, melancholy countenance, that always
made me think of cloudy day in November.
There never was the faintest ghost of smile
on his long face, and he had dreary way of
signing that used to set me thinking of
church-yards, grave stones, and the Judg
ment day He told my wife that she was
medium, and that the spirits impressed him
to visit her, in order that she might be devel-
oped But an incident soon occurred which
put an end to his benevolent plans. This is
the way it happened:-
My wife had gone out one evening, and
took it into my head to stay at home and
read the news instead of going down town to
hear it. The bell rang, and a note was
handed in directed to Mrs jenkins. Now,
don't often read my wife's letters before
she does-doesn't look weil-but happened
to know the handwriting on the envelope of
the note, and had curiosity to know what
it contained. | opened it, and found that nv
suspicious were correct. 1t was from Mr..
Bhfkins, and ran as follows =
my DEAREST ANGEL IL am imprest
that Mr.. jenkins is not your sole's tru mate.
He is ereeter Of the earth, earthly. You
air above his plain, and must not be left to
grovel with him in his undeveloped stait.-
Fly, fly with me, and be mine. Ii you re-
ciprocate my proposle, wear rose in your
boosom to morrow mite to the circle, and re-
joice the hart of your devoted BLIFKINs."
After carefully reading this interesting
and remarkable communication put on
my hat and went directly to Mr.. Blifkin's
clearinghouse, found the gentleman in his
room, and showed him the letter. / then

pot, recently obtained divorce from his
wife Julia, and the fact was announced in the
Bridgeport Farmer. The next week Mrs.
Grant informed the public, through the COL
umns of the same paper. that the notice was
the first she had heard of the matter. Last
week Mrs. Grant received information from
England that deceased relative had left
her between $780, and 100000, and Mr..
Grant is said to be somewhat disgusted at
the turn which affairs have taken, and is
lruitiessly lamenting that he obtained that
divorce. Mrs. Grant will be recollected by
our citizens as resident of Hartford for a
considerable period, and as especially dis
tlhguished for her equestrianship, she hav-
ing been awarded premiums at several State
Fairs.-Hartford Post.

Miss Annie Werlich, who resides in the
Fourth Ward, has cat, and also a couple of
kittens, which she kept in barrel in the
house. The other morning she heard the old
cat growing and making quite noise, ard
went to see what was the matter. On raising
the cover and looking in, she discovered an
enormous rat extracting the lacteal fluid
from the maternal font, much to the indig-
nation of pussy and the exclusion from the
family circle of the little pusses. On kill
ing the rat they found out that he was one

depreciation on some of the rat family, and

kittens. Who knows?
