DR.. Carpenter seems to have given an
amusing lecture on S~piritualisn at the

which he went over all the old sources

Carpenter shows,-very truly,-how cheat

investigator lingering on the letter at which
q rap is expected, and give the rap accord
ingly; and he has often laid down very wise
ly that in investigatingsuch phenomena the
medium should never be allowed to see the
alphabet used, or the hand Of the investlga'
tor, and he has told how in this way he has
foiled conjurors. We. too, could tell the
same story, and show the same results.
But the late Professor De Morgan carefully
applied this very test. He not only
screened off the alphabet and his hand
from the view Of the medium (Mfs. Hayden
but he asked for the initial letters. and the
Initial letters only, in the words OF a par
ticular sentence in his mind, so that there
might be no clue Of spelling or Of meaning
to the letters in question, and be recorded
how completely successful this test was in

it was, was independent of the MEDIUMS

tour from the banks of the Missouri TO the heart

The far West. rroliiic in matches scenery, in

est plane in illustrated publications, the grand
eur OF the surroundings and the. exhiiirstion CT
the air appearing to elevate the taste alike. The
Rocky Mountain Tourist is, possibly, the most
beautiful and at the same time suggestive exeln-
pliacation Of this influence yet finding its way
to the world at large, and the Appletons will
have to look well to the laures of their 'Pictur-
esque America and the Aldine folks keep
careful eye upon the near future or the new
preservative. The Rocky Mountain Tourist Is
indeed worthy OF place il any gentleman's
library by the side Of Picturesque America, and
certainly no higher compliment could be paid H.
It's letter press the perfection Of typographical
excellence and its Arrangement a model for

all Of which equal and many surpass. the finest

its rich topography and hisaly artistic nlustra-
tons, is q work Of rare interest, written, as it
is, in an easy, graphic vein throughout. There

u. S. Marshal.

We are sorry TO see the LeavenwOrth
Times bringing out ancient documents
with an evident intent to convince It's
readers that Charley Miller is not a fit
man to be United S;ates Marshal. The
Times publishes long letter. written by
Mr. Miller in 1856. in which he admits
having accepted money consideration
for withdrawing from a political race,
and afterwards coming out as an indie
pendent candidate. The letter, being
published verbatim, shows Mr.. Miller to
be an uneGucatcd man, by its mis-spelled
words and ungrammatieal sen fences. We
are not surprised at this defect in the
Marshal's education. as he rose from a
simple blacksmith to the high Office he
now holds But no one has ever charged
him with incompetence. We have never
heard n single complaint made against
him as an officer, and have heard many
speak well of him. 1t is the exception
and not the rule for Kansas U. S. Mar
shall 10 be honest. Stealing seems to be a
kind Of royalty attached TO the position.
If the Leavenworth Times cannot prove
Mr.. Miller to have stolen a fortune or too.
then he is certainly a saint among Mar
shais. There may be other men in the
State who would ill tie Office Just as
well. and perhaps some are more deserv-
ing of it, yet we possess warm feeling
toward Mr.. Miller. and do not see any
grounds for the attack made upon him.

A Man Made Mad i'm a Minute.

Henry T. Ostrander, son of Linas Os-
trander, is young man well known i'll
Newburg, n. Y, says the Journal of
that blace. He has been in the life in
surance business for years, and has an
office at No. At South Miller street. He
lived with his father at No. 46 Dubois
street. Young Ostrander is about thirty
years of age, single, and of an active,
nervous temperament,
For some time back his health has
been seriously failing, and recently he
has evinced indications of an affected
mind. He was in the little store or
Office, South Miller street, on Saturday
evening recently, at about eight o'clock,
when he suddenly sprang up and shot
off up through the yard, between the
store and his fathers residence, past the
house, on through Dubois street and
down First. He swung his hat in the
air and shouted "Murder % Fire -
"Police!" and the like. while he tore down
First street. running IN a zig-zag fash
ion from one sidewalk over to the other.
His yells were heard for blocks, and the
people rushed to doors and windows to
learn the cause of the commotion.
The young man ran into private resi-
dence on his way down First street, and
frightened the ladies of the house very
much. He slung things around gener.
ally, and finally made off with school
book belonging to one of the girls.
His cries of fiji started an alarm, add
ing greatly to the general excitement and
confusion He eluded all efforts to cap
ture him, and hurried on to the police
headquarters. Marshal Bancroft was
going to the door to see what the noise
was about, and young Ostrander ran
right into his arms. He was taken into
the back room and sat down. He talked
in an incoherent way for some time, and
then grabbed up slate and pencil which
were lyin5 on the table.
In trice he had written one side OF
the slate full He then flung it on the
floor, breaking it into fragments, smash
ed one of the large spittoons and cuffed
tie officers aud one or two friends of his
who had come in, right and left. The
paroxysm lasted several minutes and il
took several strong men to hold him,
although he is a little bit Of Il fellow,
hardly weighing a hundred pounds.
The unfortunate man was at last cor
veyed home III carriage. He wa>,
however, very violent at frequent inter
walls throughout Saturday night and Sun.
day, and it was necessary to keep foul
or five men at his bedside all the while
Monday morning he WAS quieter and was
enabled to sleep some.

Destruction of YOung LOcusts.

Among other recommendations of the
commissioners selected by Congress to
investigate and report on the best means
of destroying and preventing the ravages
of the locusts, is the following:
Zone of the most effectual means of
destroying the young locusts, and one
which is too often overlooked because its
effects are not SO directly apparent, is
the preservation and multiplication of
the native birds. Without undertaking
at this time to specify the species which
should be especially protected. and
about which there is yet some difference
of opinion, we feel warranted in stating
that until the useless species in this re.
spect are distinguished from those that
are beneficial, it is best to protect all in
sect-eating birds; and if the laws of the
State are insufficient for this purpose,
let communities, townships and counties
use all their lawful powers therefor.
Chickens, turkeys and hogs devour To-
Gusts in immense quantities, and thrive
during years Of locust invasion or when
ever these insects abound. Prairie
chickens and quails devour them with
avidity, and even hunt for their eggs;
swallows and blackbirds pursue them
unrelentingly; the little snow birds de-
vour great quantities of eggs when these
are brought to the surface by the freez-
ing and thawing of the ground, and the
same may be said of almost all birds
inhabiting the Western country in winter.
The good offices of birds were every.
where noticed in 1875"
