Spiritualism.
LEBANON, O., Feb. IA, 1870.

LEBANON, o., Feb. IA, 1870.
Our village has been visited by some
of the inhabitants of s'That undiscovered
country, from whose bourne no traveller
returns"
Mr. McCord has taken it upon himself
to enlighten this benighted community
On the subject of spiritualism. His zeal
and disinterestedness are highly COM
mendable. 1t is true he usually charges
each an admission fee of fifty cents but,
of course, he must have some compensa-
tion for his valuable time, and incidental
expenses must be paid.
He appeared here before small audi
ence last Wednesday evening; and to
convince them that he is ia .orite of the
spirits, and that they came to his assist
ance at his bidding, he solicited some one
to tie him, which being done, he was
ia ken into dark, very dark room, and in
about twenty minutes he came out with
that enough to convince the most skepti-
cal that there is reality in spiritualism?
For, remember, he was bound hand and
foot, and cast into that dreadfully dark
room Certainly none but spirit could
| see how to unite those hard knots
Is not this ga most wholesome doctrine
and very full of comfort p For, if by
any means, its disciples should incur the
displeasure of the civil law, and the au-
/ thorities should bind them with chains
and cast them into prison, the first dark
night the spirits would come to their re-
| lief, remove the chains, turn the bolts
and let their wards go free. We sup
/ power over chains and bolts as they have
over ropes and cords.
! Then, again, as it not source of COM
| fort to the friends of the deceased to
know that their departed sisters, friends
aud children are permitted to attend De
Wolfe, Todd, McCord and others for the
purpose Of tipping tables, rapping to
! questions, untyiDg knots, &c. This is
cnnobling employment for the great and
good who once inhabited earth How
much more ennobling than that in
which we have been accustomed to sup
pose them engaged
A tree is known by its fruits. Hence
it is just that spiritualism should be
judged by its fruits-that is, by the in
| huence that it has on the characters of
it's followers. Not by isolated cases, but
by the characters of its leading advocates
and the masses of its followers. Could
you find more noble example of true
man than is exhibited in the lives of its
leading advocates Are they not noble
examples for the youth 1t is true that
De Wolfe got into trouble at Olympia by
ignoring the law regulating marriage;
| and Mrs. De Wolfe was arrested in San
Francisco by the police for appearing on
the streets in attire which they thought
was not becoming her sex but might
not the fault be in the laws?
Spirittalists 90 not visit saloons, the
race-course, or gaming table; neither do
they violate the Sabbath, or take the
| name of God in vain. Do not their lives
recommend their doctrine? CREDo
