that he could say on the subject. He could see
plainly from the start shat these men meant
more mischief to the Governor than they did

A Young Lady Dons her Shroud
and Dies Predicting her Return
to Life.

An experimental young lady Of Av-
on is undertaking to develop new and
startling beauties in the spiritualistic
line. For five weeks she has been ly
ing as one dead, without breathing,
eating, drinking or giving any signs OF
life watever. We take the facts which
appear below, from the Rochester
Democrats:
Several months ago an unmarried
woman by the name Of Elenora Bon
ney, announced to her friends that she.
at time not far distant, would go in
to a peculiar trance, the result Of
which would be the revelation Of some
startling facts.
She had been for some time past an
acknowledged medium and clairvoy-
ant, and had, as her friends allege.
through the instrumentality Of the
spirits, been enabled TO perform many
wonderful things.
Miss Bonncy gave notice to those
intimately associated with her that she
was to pass into this mysterious state
so frequently that they began to weary
Of it, doubling that the event would
ever come to pass. At a visit to Avon,
made some time during the summer,
Mrs. Dutton was informed Of what
she expected to take place, and from
her the promise was elected that in
case the event should occur, she wod
remain with the body, prevent any at
tempt at burial, and keep her free from
the gaze Of any intruder, save a few
whom she named. On the 10th day
Of November last, Miss Bonney in
formed her friends that her time had
come. Sending for her brother-in-
law, John Ryan, she informed him cl
what was coming, and TO him and Mir.
Preston announced the course Of con-
duct to be pursued by them, and Ger
tain conditions necessary to be carried
out in order 10 make tie experiment a
success. She stated that she was to
prove that person could die, the 2ouI

POETRY.
HEAVEN UNDER
DIFFICULTIES.

Once poor, repenting sinner,
Found pardon for his sin,
When he died and went to Heaven,
But they would not let him in.
When to him the Angel watchman
Was about to ope the gate,
The theologians present
Told him he had better wait.
"For," said they, "'ts quite important,
Before farther he proceeds,
That we ascertain correctly
> What he thinks about the creeds.
It would be a shame eternal,
If he, like some cunning fox,
Should slip in among the ransomed
Without being orthodox"
They commenced examination,
Butthey could not all agree
AS to what "points" constituted
Saving christianity.
And it soon became apparent
That squabble would ensuc,
Dy the very BdlSS VI o'oiy'
With the Throne of God in view.
Calvin thought he was predestined
To the inevitable ditch;
Then Cotton Mather scented him,
And declared he was Il witch:
He and Paris had burned many
Who were only fit for hell,
And he was not now mistaken,
For he knew him by the smell.
Roger Williams then advancing,
Said "he surely must be curst,
If, enjoying light from Scripture,
He has never been immersed"
The sturdy Winebrennarian,
Stepping from his lofty seat.
Wished to know if he had ever
Washed, religiously, his feet.
Then the stately, pompous churchman
Wished to know if he had come
In the line of the Apostles.
II the church lad been his home?
And the rugged circuit-rider
Could not see how he could pass,
"For," says he, she tells me plainly
That he never went to class"
Alex. Campbell thought his chances
For admission very slight,
Unless he came from Bethany
In the "new and glorious light"
Great Emmanuel Swedenbcrg
Thought it wonderously too thin,
That a-man should seek for Heaven
Without first consulting him.
Others came with varied doctrines;
Things were getting badly mixed.
And our friend, the pardoned sinner,
Wished he had not crossed the Styx.
lie turned away in sadness,
Mourning DER his gloomy fate,
When the Savior hushed the tumult,
And flung wide the pearly gate.
And his qucstio ners were specchlcss,
And the silence was profound
Until it, at length, was broken
BY 4 shrill, complaining sound;
1t was one Of many bigots,
Saying: "Plagued if l can see
How that fellow got to Heaven,
When he did not think like mel"

to rologate tho currency question to the Con-

evasion. Mr. Logan and Mr. 0glesby having
forced this currency Hsuo on the party, tho party
must moot tho question by indorxing either the
resumption policy Of tho President or tho in

THE INTERNATIONAL IN CHICAGO.


The efforts making to organize au Euglieh-
