\ The body of Saturn is beautifully
EdiversiAed with hills and valleys,
(gtreams and lakes, fruits and flowers,
more refined and ethepeal than those
Gof earth. The climate is more un-
osm. Darkness is unknown. The
hnbitants are different from those
= any other planet, not more than
|hroe feet high, Thev wear no
aothss, but are covered with . thick
Ia, which keeps them warm. They
= nQt live in societies, but are con-
6d - fheir own families, living
Spaft from others. They eat the
fruits that grow plentifully around
them, and pay no attention to agri-
culture. They are intelligent but
have very little spoken language.
They converse by means Of facial
corrugations, which they teach their
children. Their houses are low and
of the commonest kind of architect
ure. Saturn has eight moons; the
outside or largest one is the only one
of any importance, as its inhabitants
are very much superior to any of the
rest in intelligence.
The moon and its inhabitants have
been visited by hundreds of clairvoy-
ants, who all agree that its scenery
is lovely, with running streams. sill
YER lakes, fowery meadows, fruits
luscious and tempting, very many of
them entirely unknown to men of
earth, supplying the inhabitants with
the means of constant feast without
the labor of tillage, and giving them
ample time for study and the prac-
tice and enjoyment of pursuits pure
ly intellectaal. In height their
probable average would be almost
like that of the inhabitants of earth.
They are delicately formed, beautiful
in appearance, with skins which some
have compared to white wax, and
almost Transparent. They dress in
long gray robes made Of the long hair
of an animal resembling a sheep or a
goat. The women dress something
like the men, but have peculiar and
indescribable head dresses or bon
nets. They are said to be very beau
tiful, with flowing ringlets, many OF
them of a golden color. They arc
all clairvoyant, and seem to read the
mind of those who visit them, and
take delight in showing them round
and giving them fruits, etc. Their
architecture is of q high character,
their buildings beautiful in the ex-
treme, the effect heightened by the
just proportion Of each part, as well
