speculate, ss he journeys, about what they
are doing IN that unknown land. What
kind of a reception they met with and
what kind OF one he will receive on his
arrival. Therefore it is natural for all

speculstions of others, rs to the condition
of friends in the spirit world.
DR.. BRICKMAN who is q fine classical
scholar and graduate of the German
Universities, as we'll as for time q pro-
fessor in one of them, was we'll
fitted to do full justice TO his subject.
Born among the lovely scenery of north
ern Germany and raised and educated on
the banks of the Rhine, he has enough Of
sentiment and poetical temperament to
cordislly embrace the SwEDENBoRaIAN
doctrine, and by aid of his classic edu-
cation and fine mental powers to bring
out what beauties there may be in the
religion of which he is a minister. He
gave::his theory of the self-conscious ex-
istence of man after death;
as also .his explanation
OF what the soul is as to substance and
form, aad what and where is the spiritual
world. We would not in an article like
this, to attempt to give even synopsis
of the lecture, nor do we think it appro-
pirate 10 make comments, as it is not the
province of secular journal to enter
into theological discussions. 1t is sufi-
cient to say that the lecturer maintain ed
according TO the belief of the church,
that the soul has q spiritual form like
unto the body, and that the body, which
is alone made of what we feed on, losing
and renewing itself periodically, is only
a shell or cask to conceal the soul, and that
death is only dropping the shell, and the
immortal part retains its original form
which Is clearly disclosed to the spiritual
eye; and that the spirit world is not away
beyond space as is commonly believed,
but that it is around and about us, that
we are now living in it, unconscious of
the fact, and that the spiritual and mate
rial world occupy the same relations that
the body and soul do; he denied the res
direction of our mortal bodies, and re-
garded death as only closing the mortal
vision and opening the spiritual sight.
Those who feel an interest in these
matters will have an opportunity of hear
ing them further discussed, as DR.. BRICK
NAN will lecture tonight at the same
place on the Separation of body and
soul; and the judgment that follows"
and will preach on Sunday morning.

WASHINGTON, April 25.-The extent

best illustrated by his twice declining to

text of the play so vividly recalls the
acts OF his own administration, especially
in the part where Brutus chides Cassius
for selling Offices for gain, that he deem

DANGERS OF GETTING MARRIED IN DISTANT
LANDs.-The troubles which so often arise
when a man goes from the couotry Of his resi-
dence to u distant land for a wife, seem to fall
upon princes no less than upon ordinary people.
The Duke of Edinburgh, also known as Prince
Alfred, Queen Victoria's secopd son, i jusi be.
gluolng to learn the truth of his matter. La.
stead of marrying some nice Eogllsh girl, as he
probably might have doue, be went of to Rus
STA and married the daughter Of the Gar. A
daughter ofthe Gar is a Granlduchcss, ADD
ranks among the highest vt all the processes
OF the earth, everywhere except 10 Ens!and.
The Eogilsl thlnk that their princcsses arr net-
ter than those of auy other couutty. so when
the Russian princess who has married Prince
Alfred goes into society with al Eaglish
princess, she is r, auired to lake a back sfat, a
thing which no Russian princess ever yet DID
do, aud which this particular Russian prluc'sS,
it seems, has notified all concerned that sue
never will do. Her husband, as a good nus
band should, stands by her in this deternllua-
ton. Hence there is much trouble lr the
royal drawing roous, and English society is
huttered from centre TO circumference.
The moral Of all this Is that a young man
should DOT go IF to distant countries iD S,arc.,
of a wife, but should marry one OF the nlca girls
who are among the chief slories of the land 10
which he makes his hone.
Hair can be turned blonic, or, 10 other
words, killed, by washing 10 u very weak solu-
ton of soda twice a day. Two Of the leading
bel Of New York society owe their muci-ad-
uired golden to this simple recipe.
