TuE mysterious gilt Of 0mind reading

The mysterious gift OF "mind reading"
ia no longer confined to Brown, the origi-
nal party in the business. Not to speak
Of other persons throughout the country,
there is said to be young lady in Wheel.
ing who can astonish her friends occa.
sionally in that way. We notice that a
Mrs. Peters, Of Davenport, Iowa, COM
peted with Brown in u performance in
her parlors the other day,
Browns method, it is we'll known, is to
place the hand OF the mind he means to
read on his forehead, and go like streak
of lightning to any hidden article. Mrs,
Peters needs to have the ends OF the lin.
gers placed on the region Of the lunar
plexus, Immediately between the eyes, in
order to do the same thing, The sepa-
rate experiments, which were successful
in each case, were not so interesting as
the joint test. Both the lady and the
young man left the room, while piece Of
lagroot was put under champagne glass
reversed on plate and covered with Il
napkin. 1t was resolved that Brown
should remove the napkin. Mrs. Peters
lift the glass, Brown take the hagroOt and
Mrs. Peters the plate, Recalled to the
room, they joined hands, the operator took
n hand Of Brown, placed his fingers on
the brow Of Mrs, Peters, and, simultane'
Ously, without a moments hesitation, the
two advanced and carried out the pro-
gramme to the letter. After this, they
were placed one at each end Of the draw
ing room, an alphabet hanging on wire
before each, A person in the middle Of the
room opened Bible at random, fixed his
thought on u name, meanwhile holding a
copper wire connecting with Brown, and
extending his other hand toward Mrs,
Peters. Immediately, as II moved by
machinery, the two mind readers began
to spell the word on their aIphabets,
striking each letter at the same moment,
These tests, We are told, were continued
for some time without II failure, being
certainly remarkable illustration Of
this power, which is not, however, rs has
been proven, very rare one.

The Catholic Church una l'Opu.
lnr Education.

A fair Indication OF The tendencies OF
the Roman Catholic system ms respects
education, Is to be found in Spain, where,
out Of 100000 Of people, l2,OOO,00O
are unable to read. There Catholic prin.
ciples have had undivided sway for more
than 1000 years. Such facts are sufficient
to make the people suspicious Of the
policy Of the Romish Church. It's fruits
are no recommendation OF its policy.
When the GOvcument Of Italy first got
possession Of the Roman States, in 1862,
according to the statement OF the ltal.
ian Minister Of Public Instruction,
in Tuscany, out OF every one thor.
sand males only $50 could read I;
and Of every l,OOOfemnles, only $50 could
read. Going nearer 10 the Papal throne,
in Naples and Sicily, out Of every 1000
males, but 1G5 could read; and but 62 fe.
males out Of 1000. OF the males between
the ages Of five and Is years, but l34
could read. Out Of every 1000 Of the eli.
tire population, $40 didn't know their
letters, Compare these figures with the
number Of ecclesiastics Of the Romish
Church, and ask what they were there for,
II not to teach the people. In Sicily,
when but 10 In 100 could read, the mum.
Der of ecClesiastics was above 10000. In
1858 the whole STUN expended for popn.
lar education in Italy, with population
Of 12,lO0,OO0, was only little more than
81 100000.
