Medical View of spiritualism.

tualism. | have watched many cases Of
genuine spiriiualism, bu. do not remember
to have seen a chrolie case permanently
cured. | have seen typioal cases passrc-
gularly through their successive STAGES aud
terminate in open insanity, and have never
been able 10 mitigate the symptoms nor a

uupromisiUg complainant with which the
psychologist is CALEB 10 meet. NJ cpi-

1t is dcluicn which has exi-teG twenty
fse years, and attacked ia Tire United States
alone nearly three million people. The last
census Informs us that there are In the
Republic ,wenty-four thousand insane, set

meeting to be held at Moorefield, in Hardy
county, on the 2nd of September, 1878,
WILLIAM J. BABB, Esq was appointed

n. .. NoRMENr, Esq, in an eloquent
speech explained to the meeting the ueces
sity aud great advantages of a railroad tbro'
the beautiful valley Of the South Branch,
aud showed the Aourishing condition Of o.
ther States, aud even of new territories ow-
irg to the construction Of railroads.
lie was followed by JOSEPH SPRIG0, Esq

that narrow gusge railroad is the only
railroad that is likely to be constructed in

and Ohio Railroad, for which he obtained
very liberal charter, will not be built ex.
cept by foreign capital

upon, and heartily endorsed the views of
the previous speakers, aud hoped soon to
see the iron horse speeding through this
fourishing valley.

marks, in which be stated that Railroads,
in considerable degree, contribute to the
material prosperity and intellectual progress
of the people Of the country through which
they pass.
ii. s. CARR, Esq, followed in q very
neat speech, showing that northern, as well
as English capital seeks investment in West
Virginia on account Of its wealth in coal &

soon as her vast natural resourcea are de-
veloped. His remarks elected frequent
and hearty applause.

DUPLEX SUBMARINE TRLEGRAPHY.-
What has so far been accomplished in tee-
graphy, great as it undoubtedly has been,
Is thought to be but the foundation of still
larger results. Thus, the new system of
"dupIex" working, by means of a new con-
denser, which splits the current of electric
ity and enables the operator to send mes
sages through the cables in contrary direc
tons OF the same moment, has. now, i. is
stated, been successfully organized by the
Eastern Telegraph Company. A London
circular states that the able and accomp-
lished electricians of that company have
surmounted all difficulties, and have prov
cd the perfect applicability of the system
to submarine tolegraphy by practically a.
dapting it to the section of the ca e. be-
tween Lisbon and Gibraltar 1880 mies)
and Malta and Alexandra $3.50 mies) As
soon as tue necessary instruments can be
obtained the electricians, probing by the
experience they have acquired on The shor-
ter cables, fully expect to be able to apply
The system also successfully to the lonper
sections between Malta and Gibralta H..
l2O miles), between Suez and Alden n.
40 miles,, aDd between Alden and Bonn
bay G $50 miles,. 1t is impossible to O =
verra;e the impo rtance of these improve
ments, for, when perfected, they practically
at once double the carrying capacity Of ali
existing submarine cables.-BGH. SIM.
