'SpR1TuA1lsFs" ExposED-FuN FOR

at Fraternity Hall, last evening, during
g spiritual seance, so-called, where an in.
dividual oslling himself medium"
proposed to do all manner Of impossible
things through supern5suia. aid. Eo
had allowed persons in the audience
(perhRps confederates) ito tie him in all
sorts OF ways, but always he would re-
lease himself in very short time. Hav-

grew bold, and stepping TO the front Of
the platform, boldly challenged any per-
aon in the audience to fasten him in suoh
manner that would restrain him but q
moment. Unfortunately for the "me-
dium," Officer Lord, OF the Fourth Po-
lice Precinct, was present, and had in his
pocket new pair OF raohet handouts.
which he was anxious to try on some
one. So. accepting the defiance, he
skipped on to the platform, and in q
moment the ''invisible's intimate was
as securely ironed as ever an impostor
could be. Nearly. il not more than, an
hour, he danced around the stage, trying
to relieve himself of the bracelets, but
ell to no purpose, and finally, amid jeera
of the unoonverted and sorrow Of the
faithful few, he was forced to ask Mr..
Lord to use his key and relieve him
from his uncomfortable position-in
fact, to ask policeman to render him O

AVERT THE DANGER. Tho "ethereal
mildness" with which poets credit the
vernal season is more an illusion of the
fancy than meteorological fact. Early
spring in temperate climates is fearful
time, and the tears are usually too cool
for health or comfort. To avert the
complaints to which the fogs and winds
OF the season are apt to give rise, pru-
dent people who believe in the proYerb
that prevention is better than cure, 81
fortify their stomachs and brace up their
nerves and muscles with Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. Those who do this
are wise, and are rewarded for their
wisdom by escaping the visitations of
chills and fever, rheumatism, bilious
ness, tlatulency, constipation, stomach
complaints, &C., so common in damp,
inhospitable weather. To the less pru.
dent, who neglect this precaution, and
suffer for it, We would say, that the dis.
orders which this potent vegetable tonic
prevents it also cures Mlt3tl

New York city is at present enoircled

dated docks, but an effort is being made

a succession Of handsome, substantial

facilities for loading and unloading car

DISAGREEMENT OF CHARLES I-STnANGE
AND TRUTHFUL SKETCH In some re-
markable instances, where the location
Of the burial places Of celebrated por-
sonages has been in dispute, the work of
Identification las been accomplished by
the discovery Of what were plainly CON
ceived to be the remains of the indivi-
dual in question. In other instances
the body has been completely identified
by the CLOSE resemblance of the face of
the corpse to extant pictures, busts or
| coins. The Identification of the re-
mains Of Henry Nv, il Canterbury Ca.
thedral, after the lapse of nearly four
centuries and half, is an example of
the first GLASS OF clees. The identifica-
ton of the remains of Charles I, after
l65 years, of the second class. The re-
mains OF Charles I were completely
identified by the striking resem blance of
the countennncs, Notwithstanding ite
Disagreement, to it's portrait, aud By the
fact that the neck was found smoothly
divided across. We have the following
particulars of the excellent condition,
after l65 years, of body suddenly de-
prived Of life and ombalmed and in.
tered in lead:
On removing part OF the lead coffin,
an inner coffin of wood, much decayed,
WAS exposed, and within this the body,
wrapped in cereoloth, into the folds of
which an unctious matter mixed With
rosin had been poured to exclude the
air. The coffin was quite full, and on
removing the covering from'the face the
sHin was found dark and discolored, the
forehead and temples we'll preserved,
the cartilage of the nose gone. the cha
racteristic pointed beard perfect. the left
ear entire, and the left eye open and
full, though it vanished on exposure.
The head was found loose and WIS easily
taken out and exposed to view. It was
heavy, We. with liquid which gave to
whiting paper and linen agreeaish red
tinge; the textures Of the neck were
solid, aud the back part of the scalp was
perfect aud OF q remarkably fresh ap-
pearance. The hair of the head was q
beautiful dark brown, that of the beard
OF redder tint. The divided muscles
OF the neck had retracted considerably,
and the smooth surface Of the divided
verteb1R was visible.
In the same vault in which Charles I
was Inferred, Henry VIII was deposited.
Tho leaden coffin, which had been en-
closed IN o thick elm case, appeared to
have been beaten in. go as to leave an
opening large enough to expose skele.
ton Of the King, with some beard upon
the chin. The body of the King had
been inferred 206 years. To the preser-
vation Of bones it is impossible to set
any limit of time. The bones of King
Dagobort, disinterred from the church
of st. Dennis after 1900 years, others
from Pompeii after 1,80O years, nnd
others-as parts OF Egyptian mummies-
full 1000 years old, attest their perma-
nence.
