Some one has got hold of the newspaper
bore and set him to music as follows:
He drops into my easy chair,
An asks about the news;
He peers into my manuscript,
And gives his candid views;
He tells me where he likes the line,
And where he's forced to grieve,
He takes the strangest liberties,
But never takes his leave!

is allowed in the hall during the day, unless
some of the family are with them. Per-
haps some of those who have written ac-
counts of their wonderful doings can ex-
plain all these things, so as to make them
plain. A person who is one of the strong
est believers in these manifestations, told
me that at least ninc-tenths of their visitors
were Spiritualists before they go there. and
that they expect to see these things. Many
of them remain for weeks, and in CONVEX
sation with them is 1t not easy for this me-
dium to find out all he wishes toknow, and
then how easy to personate their friends?
THEY GO THERE WITH FAITH
that they shall see these spirits firmly i'm
pressed on their minds. They talk of spir
It's they read of spirits, and in the dlmness
and obscurity of that hall they see spirits.
1t seems to this writer that any man en-
dowed with good common sense can per-
form the same manifestations, and as long
as he can get an audience. ninc-tenths Of
which are in hearty sympathy with him
and the other tenth are interested only in
seeing the show-just so long can he carry
them on successfully and with profit to
himself, as is being done by this Eddy fam
lily, as will be seen by the following state
ment; They average twenty boarders
most of the time, at eight dollars per week,
and they all say that they live poor. At
each seance are from four to eight persons
that go in out of curiosity, who are charged
fifty cents each, and
SO LONG AS MONEY COMES IN
as rapidly as it has during the past year,
will William and Horatio Eddy continue
their manifestations. 1t has also been my
good fortune to attend seance in the dark
an account of which l must reserve for
another letter, but as to the truth of the
statements contained in this communica-
ton, can bring reliable persons to vuuch
for them all.

"WHY EVERY THING WENT WRoNa. "A
poor lame boy in Springfield, who became con-
verted, whose home surroundings were very
unfriendly, said, when he was relating his ex-
perience:
Once every thing went wrong at our house
father was wrong, and mother was wrong, and
sister was wrong but now that Jesus Is mine
it Is all right, and l know why every thing
went wrong before; was all wrong myself:
Every thing will so wrong with US If we are
not right in Christ. Every heart has enough
v thin it to make disquiat and unrest and un-
happiness until the love Of Christ, entering
there, turns out all the enemies to happiness
and peace.

A CHrLD's QUESTION Father Saw
yer, of Maine, had reached his hundredth birth
day, the event was celebrated by q public SER
vice, which was attended by throngs Of all ages.
After his address and prayer many children
were taken up to shake hands with the patrl-
arch, aud receive his blessing. One very little
girl, who was much impressed by the occasion,
at length whispered to her mother: "I guess he
always minded his mamma"
"Yes, dear; what made you think of thatf"
"Why, mamma, doesn't God say, '1hy days
shall be long?'"
She probably comprehended nothing but the
great age of the speaker, ont that had been q
sermon 10 her. And is not tke mere fact of a
Christians long life testimony to Gods faith

they are honored with being "His witness?"
