Here, while engaged in conversation, ne was at

MN. WARREN AND THE SPIRITS.
Interesting Manifestations OF superhu-

Interesting Manifestations OF superhu-
man Power and Intelligence.
There was great deal Of fun In one OF the
upper rooms Of the Graphic building yesterday
afternoon. A sturdy-looklng medium from Bos-
ton-Mr. T. Warren by name, 30 far as human ap-
pellstion goes-presented himself, accompanied
by spirttualistic orator, and desired to prove
that his intercourse with the spirit world was OF
nature which could not fail to convince every
sceptic. The Messrs. Goodscn accordingly
placed room at the disposition OF Mr.. Warren,
wherein he could communicate with the spirits,
above and below, and at the same time convince
a number Of ladies and gen temeu that hls sources
OF information, to say nothing OF a lot OF super
natural ieats. could be attributable solely
to power which, II not appreciated IN physical
point OF view, must inevitably be traced TO the
revelations In tnat unknown world that lies be-
y0nd the grave. Warren, by the way, is smart
looking fellow, with humorous twinkle IN the
keenest OF black eyes, while MS external appear

Mr.. Warren displayed some astounding ieats,
or rather an extraordinary familiarity with q

facility Ia guitar playing was equalled only by the
abandon with which they overturned things gen.

securely bound to char In dark room. BY

Warren perspired great deal, and SO did Mr.. G.

the serious task OF remaining in the room with
the medium while the spirits were lowering
about and his explanation TO the almost petrlied
aSsemblage, when admitted to the mysterious
chamber, was not destitute OF those brilliant
nights OF fancy for which the once irrepressible
George was so renowned. One OF Mr.. Warren's
best feats, or rather one of the most marvellous
and generous acts OF the spirits, was to loosen
pair OF handouts or his wrists, which had been
securely locked; but judge OF the surprise Of the
bewldered spectators when, on rushing into the
dark chamber suddenly lighted up. the medium
appeared to mug invoiuntarily huge supporting

interesting character, and many left the building

Decided.
WASHINGTON, Oct. q, 1874
The Criminal Court this morning resumed the
consideration OF tae sale burglary conspiracy

first plea In abatement raised BY him yesterday to
the effect that the Grand Jury which found the
alleged true bill against his client, along with
others, was not legally constituted, the jurors
not having been selected In accordance with the

cause it did NOT present single question upon
which direct issue on the demurrer could be
had.
Other pleas were read questioning the mode OF
drawing Jurors and asserting that the law required
the summoning OF twenty-three grand jurors,

ment including the question that three OF the
grand Jurors were not legally qualified to serve,
not being taxpayers, ana that the names were
not drawn from the box IN pursuance OF law.
Assistant Attorney General Hill said he would
stake MS professional reputation on the assertion
that the law did not require Jurors TO be taxpay-
ers He expressed the anxiety OF the government

unnecessary delay.
