The meeting of- this Society on the

Ga.—Dear Sir.—In your issue of

with our Fair, that the Central Rail
Road is an ; exceptiori to the Roads
which will carty visitors, &c., to our

in the “Addenda' 1 to our Premium List,
that arrangements have been made
with the Central, on the same terms as
with all other Roads, viz: to carry vis-
tors and articles for ex ibituii at hal
rates. As we look for large contribu
tions of both, from the li,ne’of the

Spiritism.
There is a natural’disposition in man
to desire and, to. seek after what is un
attainable. Confined to earth, how
does the m'ind wander to other worlds,
toother systems of worlds. Who in
looking the expanse around us has
not desired to explore and u.ufqld its
hidden myiteries, cr diving 1ntb the in
terior of’earthj would if possible bring
to light its hidden mechanism ?
As the “eye is never satisfied with
seeing,” so the mind never wearies in
the pursuit of knowledge. The Phys
ical man will tire, the overworked brai^
must have repose. But, the spirit of
the man, the immortal part, yrhich
thinks and wills and reasons, •' wff be
lieve 1 , knows rid weariness.But riian
'naturally is' in a "Mate of unrest, and
the Bible tells us why—and one inter
esting consequence of this restless long
ing to know—is the efforts man has
been making to enter the spirit world
and bring hynselfj- into direct cdriimuni-
cation vfkb its invisible inhabitants. In
every age of the world, history t'dlls us
of these restless seekers after Iftddeh'
and supernatural knowledge.
And yet apart from Scijipty&e, b ow
little have we learned, how little do we
know of the invisible ^prjdi ‘True
there are those living who profess to
have daily intercom's;} v;itb spirits. But
what have they learned that is worth
knowing ? what have they revealed to
benefit, teiankind t nothing absolutely
nothing. '
Emanuel. Swedenborg, who flourished
'durififths middlh iri'fl- latter part of
)tl'ie last de'pb’jry, has written more and
t perliapy better on tf?fs subject than most
would tell so many lies, and, indeed,
with solemn .affirmation, that men
would be astonished ; wherefore, when
spirits were - speaking, I was not per
mitted to have faith in tbe things which
they related* tbor they are extremely
fond of fabricating; ppd when any
suhject of discourse is proposed, they
thiijk thtrt they fjpow it, and give their
opinions one after another, one in one
wdyi aiftf another in another, altogeth
er as if tlrty' knew ; and if man then
listens* wild'believes, they press on, and
deceive in divers ways.”
In'modern spiritual manifestations,
we know that nothing is more common
than for the spirits who communicate
to say they are sucli or such persons,
perhaps a departed relative or friend,
or perhajis some great than, Washing
ton, Franklin, or Swedenborg, flow
deception can be prams^d ^y spirits
m this we can see ip t^ie following ex
tract from Swedenborg :
“Spirits may be induced, who rep re
sent another person, and the spirit, as
also lie \vho was known to the spirit,
cariiipi know otherwise than that lie
was the same. This has many times
been shown to me, that the spirits
speaking with medid not know other
wise than that theyutoertJ the' irlen who
weie llifr subject of thought, neither
did the spirit iknow otheiwise, as he
says, yester lay and to-day some one
known to me in life (was represented
by one) 1 who t'was scJ like Inin in all
things iliat* bclotig to him, so far as they
were knotori 'to me, that' nothing was
murt ! hke. Wherefore, let those who
speak w‘ith aJ>Hikts beware lest they be
deeeiVed, when they say that .they arc
those wl.btn they know and that are
dead. For theie are genera aud spe
cies of like faculty, and when similar
things aie called up in the memory of
man, and are ihua represented to them,
they thins they are the same person.
Ti en all the things are called forth
from the memory ’ that represented
those persoti.4, 'bwh 'ttte Woids, the
peed), the tones, the gestures, and
other things.’’
Again he says: “There are others
who mdupe upon theuiselyes so de^te
rously ffie persons of others, that Ihe
deception can scarcely be detected
Again: “It is <n - of the wonders ot

But another curious proof of Swe
denborg’s truth is in the fact that a
hundred years ago he described the
methods, nature, and dangers of the
present spiritual manifestations. Thus,
in one place he declares, “Spirits, who
are the souls of those who are dead as
to the body, if they were permitted,
could, through the man who speaks
with tnem, but not through others, be
as though they were entirely in tbq

Public Men and the Newspaper
i : ' Press.
When a man enter-i public life, he
may expect public criticism. Ills acts
become public property, and Iris record
and opinions on punlic affairs are legi
timate! tt_>pies of newspaper discussion.
But this discussion should be dignified
f nd c^ST-Cuus; anql in all cases, con
fined td'a' man's public and official
character.’ •* IJlis personal cliaracter and
his fdcbrd a private gentleman,
should be 'he{d t sacrtd. One is public
property) Th bother is not; and there
can be few’better evidences of the
blackguard in journalism, than an ill—
suppressed’disposition to pass beyond
these well defined limits, and deal with
the private and personal character of
public men. Men of ability scorn to
do it; conscientious men will not do it
under any circumstaccs; and a well
man can not do it. If therefore all
journalists were men of culture and
ability, or they were consc.entioug or
even well raised, the profession tyould
never be scandalized by disgusting
personalities. Their- diatrahetf might:

A Knotty Text.—There was 01 ce
an itinerant preacner in West Teiines
see, who, possess.ng considerable natu
ral eloquence, had gradually become
possessed of the idea that lie was also
an extraordinary Biblical*scholar. Un
der thic;‘dqlt>sfon ‘he w*>uld very ire-
Iquentlyj at the close of his sermons,
ask any* member of his 'coi
who might' likve a '“knotty
unravel, 10 speak it, and he
plain it at ond^, howevermucli
have troubled “less disringuished
vines.” On one occasion, in a large
audience, lie was particularly pressing
lor some one to propound a text; but
no,one presj i.'ing to do" so,' he' was
.about to sit flown' without an opportu
nity to show his learning, when a chap
back t>y the door announced lie had a
Bible matter of great “concern,” which
he desired to be enlightened upon. The
preacher, quite animatCly, professed
his t>?i|lingiies3 qpd ajhiiity*‘hnd tHe
congregation was in great excitement,
i ‘•WhatTvVant to know-,” said the
joutsidbr, “?s”knyth^V Job’st'ui key was
•"a lien br -a gob'lef ?•” ’ *'
Tne “expounder - ” looked confused,
and the congregation tittered as the
questioner capped the climax hy ex-
el'aiini.nsr, in a loud vo ce :
‘•I fotched him down on the fust
question ? ’
From that time forward, the practice
seemed to be more at home. It did
not suit the German so well, however,
and it was soon changed to sherry, af
ter three bottles had' been gulpeddowh
by each. The sherry was-only palata
ble while two bo ties lasted—one each.

. The GHrriian reached out cautiously
jto the bo.'tle to replenish fits glass. The

•Tne eff >rt on the part of the latter was
