PPoFEsssR GRIMES. --This gentleman held
forth last evening at Army and Navy Union
Hall to about one hundred and fifty people, and
it is but just to say that they paid good atten-
ton to what he said and laughed at his jokes,
grimaces and criticisms. While the professor
unquestonably conveys good deal of informa
ton on mental philosophy, the action of the
nerves, mesmerism and kindred subjects aris-
ing naturally out of the discussion of the gen
eral principles of human nature he can hardly
expect his audience to accept his simple asse1
tons unsustained by argument or experimental
proof. For instance, his explanation of the
method employed by spiritualists to produce
the raps and tablelifting were rather thin
to those who have witnessed the performance
elsewhere. In his rambling style of speaking
he betrays an extensive reading and famllIarl-
ty with his subject, and if his object is merely
to interest and amuse he succeeds well. One
good point he made when he asserted that be-
lief in the phenomena of spiritualism springs
either from ignorance or infideity, or both; and
Illustrated his point by reference to the habit
of the ancient Greek to attribute every uncom-
pretended phenomena to deity, and of the
french nluueis, ehouSh hiShiy CuiluIcu III
worldly knowledge who discarded Revelation"
and guphed down the teachings of modern
spiritualists
The professor is heavy built man with mo-
bile features, good voice, which he knows
how to handle. Taken altogether he is worth
going to see and hear, as one is sure to gather
enough from his lecture worth treasurng up
He proposes to lecture every evening during
this week, and on Thursday evening will allow
City Marshal Parker to handcuff him, when he
will perform the feats of the Davenport Broth

first is foreshadowiDg of Christ; the second
is his glorious appearance. The discourse was
one of deep thought and great fervor-a sermon
in a thousand and was warmly received by
the large and delighted audience.
Mr.. Boole is man of peculiar power and
personal appearance. He has saturDine COM
plexion and pronounced features, with strong
lines chiseled his face. Deep-set, earnest,
enthusiastic, blue eyes, beneath projecting
brow. from which his long hair is thrown
straight back, give him the look of man ter
ribly in earnest. His mouth is the wide mouth
of the orator. What adds greatly to the etfec-
tiveness of his speech is the full, round voice,
clear and distinct, in which he pours forth his
sentences He has wealth of language ana
illustration, and a decided tendency to use in
tense imagery, couched in the grand forms OF
mental hyperbole.
In the interval between the morning and
afternoon services a ehildren's prayer meeting

The opening day of the camp meeting may
