tents of letter from q friend in
whom we have the utmost confidence,
and we know that she writes no nu-
certain report, There are points in
this communication worthy Of careful
attention.
i. This kind Of haunted house phe-

common throughout the the country.
The fact can no longer be ignored
"The NeWbnrypoft School house"
g The Dunn County (Wis) House."
q The Virgil House" and many others
are proof positive that these things
are. The testimony is before US. The
Judgment rendered is, that this phe-
nomenon is the result of spirit or ul
tramundane life What we now. wish
10 Hnderetand is the law through
which this phenomenon takes place.
Is it the work of the DiakkaS
2. The lesson taught-there is no
forgiveness in this life or the sitter
life. Every penalty must be paid.
There is no escape. "a baV9v
3. Life in the Spirit world is iden-
tical with life in1this mundane world,
fear, sorrow, joy, hate, spleens and all
kindred elements OF passion are parts
of this great Spirit World thar we
are unfolding for humanity, and above
all, that the star of Prog gression hovers
over that world as well as thiss
4. Net only are media helpers to us
IN the present life, but they are bene-
factors to those unfortunate souls who
aee-in prison iu the Spirit W. orld, and
through the law of iaterblendingl of
our natures, both spheres are benefited

5. Certain parties or persons who
dying in the act OF crime, or the cause
of crime, or IN plotting for crime, do
leave force or influence In o house,
Or on a spot of ground, or on any arti-
Gle that may be IN contact with them .
at the thine of the act. that vii. repeat
in testimony the act in evil they COM
NIT whenever corresponding force
or law in another comes in contact
with what they have left behind them.
Hence the pheHomena of the haunted
house, pond, or field.
6. Sometimes these criminals, In the
very act, are bound in chains, and re-
main bound until relieved by the law
OF development, progression, or the
charity of some ministering element.
Z. Can spirits remove obnoxious
men and women from their patha and
if so, are we not sojourners here, on
very ticklish ground indeed and that
our continuance here depends on our
good behavior here as well as here
after.
Finally, is this not an age of Won-
der and wisdom? "Let us prove all
things and hold fast to that which is
good" Let as do right and exercise
charity, and all will be well. so
