SPIRlTuAIIsTs AND THEIR THEORIES. -
At recent meeting IN London under the
auspices of the Dalectcal society, which
is investigating the so-called phenomena
Of spirtualism, Mr. Home related a fact
which occurred some years ago in the
presence Of the Emperor Napoleon. "We
were" he said, sin a large room in the
Salon dc Louis Quatorzc The Empress
and Emperor were present ] am now
telling the story as heard the Emperor
tell it. A table was moyed-thcn hand
was seen to come. 1t was avery beauti-
fully formed hand There were pencils
on tic tabla 1t lifted not tie ono next
to it, but one on the far side, We heard
the sound of writing OH fine note paper.
The hand passed before me and went to
the Emperor, and he kissed the hand. 1t
went to the Empress she withdrew from
its touch, and the hand followed her.
The Emperor said, Do not be frighten
cd - and she kissed it too. 1t was dis
appealing. I,said would like to kiss it.
The hand seemed to be like person
thinking, and as il it were saying, why
should | 2" 1t came back to me. 1t had
written the word (" Napoleon and it re
mains written now. 1t was as much a
material hand seemingly as my hand is
now. Tne writing was an autograph OF
the Emperor Napoleon l., who had a
very beautiful hand" Mr.. Home said
that the Emperor of Russia as well as tho
Emperor Napoleon had seen hands, and
had taken hold of them, "when they
seemed to float away into thin air" In
reply to question whether he could give
any information rs to the state and con
dtion Of departed human spirits, Mr..
Home said that his Information led him
to the opinion that precisely as We 50 to
sleep here 50 we awake in the other
world --Wesleyans were Wcsloyans. Swe-
denborgians were Swcdcnborgians, Ma.
homedans were Mahomcdans. AS to f,i-
ture rewards and punishments, bad spir.
its see the continuous results Of the
wrong they have done, and in some in.
stances have endeavored to repair it by
declaring where concealed papers were.
Two or three other persons expressed
their opinions on this subject. One OF
them, a Mr.. Damrain, who said, that
though not himselfa a medium, he !" had
been in the presence Of q hundred medi'
ums at two hundred instances, and had in
his library 500 volumes on spiritualsm, y
gave It as his opinion that there are mar
riagcs in the spiritual world between the
opposite sexes, but no spiritual children
