| Anon.

A BOOK recently published has been
much read and commented upon. This
book, "The Missing Link" has been
written by one Of the celebrated "Fox
sisters, with whose experiences, and whose
failures in spiritualism, the reading world
is well acquainted The author now pub
fishes her book for the purpose of setting
forth her experience, with the incidents
connected with that experience in all that
pertains to this curious but unwhoIesome
belief. The LADIES JOURNAL terms this
belief unwholesome, and afirms that there
is yet to be found any benefit for humanity
arising from the teachings of this mis-
termed religion. We have also yet to learn
of any permanent excellence proceeding
from it. Upon the other hand we learn of
unhappiness, confusion of mind, nervous
apprehension, and serious mental terrors
connected with this so-called spiritual
belief
A true religion-not that of one or
another churoh-but a deep and fervent
response and communion with the one
Almighty God-this benefits the human
race; it exaIts the mind, it tends to bring
peace and fortitude, with lofty and
heathful system OF thought. Is it not
better to lift the mind? Is it not better to
view with intelligent discrimination the
fallacies chat are all about us, than to
adopt the theories of this Missing Link

and Its material transformations?

The extract below is written by Col.
Mcclure, Of Philadelphia, and gives Us a
gfmpce of a noted Southern writer.
Among the bright days of the Southern
Journey dates visit to the home of Mrs
Wilson, among the many old-time beautiful
residences which are in the suburban part
of Mobile. Few in the North would know
Augusta J. Evans as Mrs. Wilson, but
the name of Miss Evans is familiar to All
the lovers of literature in every section Of
the country. Her fine old mansion i
thickly surrounded by live oaks in per-
petual verdure, proflsion of shrubbery
and camelia trees, radiant with thousands
of bursting buds and blooming flowers.
One tree, that has evidently been the OBJ
ject of special care, bore full 5000 bright
scarlet buds and flowers on its exquisitely
symmetrical branches, and when in full
bloom it must illumine the whole
neighborhood. The visitors were prompt
ly admitted and greeted by the dis
tinguished authoress in the bcspit-
able style Of the true Southern home
She was neatly clad in pretty Bingham
costume, and her welcome made all for
getful of fofmality. She lives and moves
in vast bower of flowers, all planted and
nursed by her own hands, and she exhibits
them with all the pride and affection ola
Roman mother. Refreshments we're served
and the one vacant place at the table had
a napkin ring holding an exquisite white
camelia. Chat" said Mrs. Wilson, is
my husbands bouquet for to-day, and he
has never been without one at any breaking
of bread in our home since we were
married, now sixteen years ago" She
discussed authors with freedom, but in
generous kindness, and spoke sorrowfully
of the decline in Southern literature caused
by the long trials and sacrifices Of war.
She inquired specially for Miss Brewster,
of this city, aud said that she had lately
written to her, urging the reprint Of new
editions Of her books. 81 read no
history of the war;" she said,
with the impressive pathos that
only woman could exhibit. "The story
is too sad to me and to those who saw its
