TIE STOAT HERALD. V T OL. 1. ATLANTA, GA., SUNDAY, MAY 25, 1873. NO. 125 "YE SPIRITS!” Sr. 'Harrison’s Tilt Against a Windmill. Knocking the Hull Off of “A Boston Man.” Dr. Hall closed his first argument by read ing some poetry, a portion of which he said was composed by the spirit of Shake peers, and the other portion by Edgar A. Foe. In opening the debate on his part, Dr. Harrison read several extracts from a work published by Dr. Hall, entitled, “Whioh, Spir itualism or Christianity?'* in order, as he said, to show the sneering, scoffing manner in which his opponent was aeenstomed to treat ing the Bible. As for Hull's statement, that all the history we have concerning Christ came through the hands of Easebint, be could furnish his opponent more books than him self and best friend can carry, all of which were written before the time of Ensebins, and ; w. m „ o - _ -v- . _ j | all containing information concerning Christ Ye True Story of Ye Andrewe j With Icga & t0 the moviDg of the $ Batts.’ Wonderful Stories About the Freaks of Spirits. From the Nashville Union and American. FIRST NIGHT. Last'night witnessed the opening of the debate on the subject of Modern Spiritualism, at Masonic Hall, between Moses Hell, of Boston, Massachusetts, and W. P. Harrison, of Atlanta, Georgia, which debate is to con tinue tbrongb this week, if no longer. At 8:30 Dr. Bowling, General Johnson and the debaters ascended the stage, when Dr. Bowling read the foUowing: paoposmoss. Besolved, That ths spirits of the departed can and do hold tangible communion with persons living on earth. Hall affirm*. Harrison denies. Besolved, That the teachings cf modern spiritualism are better calculated to morally, mentally and spiritually elevate humanity than those of the Jewish and Christian scriptures. Hull affirms. Harrison denies. The moderators are to be Prof. W. K. Bowl ing, M. D., Hod. Connally F. Trigg, and General Bashrod B. Johnson. Cpon being introduced, Dr. Hull said he come, a stranger in a strange land, and from an unpopular section, to advocate an unpop ular doctrine, speaking in opposition to a man well koown in Nashville to be highly ed ucated, erudite and eloquent, and who, he understood, always handled spiritualism without gloves. But he was piano, be had seen a chair move of itself to the distance of perhaps three feet, bnt in this instance he had been reclining on the chair, and it bad be came so charged with nervons force that upon his rising from it, the chair slid off quite a distance of its own accord. In France, in 1844, be thought it was, a yonng girl was found to possess a repelling power in her left side, so that things vronid fly from her with considerable force. Upon examination it was found that she was diseased, and when that disease was cured she lost this power. In these spiritual manifestations seven per sons come together, sit aronnd a table upon which they rest their bands, and soon the tips of their fingers begin to burn. Then there is a concentration of the nervons force of all the persons in the circle, and the table moves. There is a strange affinity for dark ness in all these things, the lights being tnrned down in every instance. Here the speaker read from the book ef Br. Hall, where an explanation is given for this fact, the writer saying that “darkness is a negative condition of the elements,” and therefore favorable to the transmission of mes sages from the spirit world, os spirits are com pelled to speak by means of physical organs. This he (Harrison) considered very absnrd, as he was led to believe the writer meant his readers to understand that those reoeiving spirit messages did not receive them by means of their natural ears, as they probably would did these demonstrations occur in broad day light In bis reply Dr. Hull said that he had no reference at all to the physical organization of those receiving messages from the spirit world, in the extracts read from his woTk. nent had brought facts or testimony to prove his position ? Does the Baltimore piano prove it? Does the eating of the apple by a spirit prove it ? Are you going to trust your eternal, your everlasting salvation upon such testimony as that ? Are you going to put the Bible and everything pure, and grand, and noble, and holy, in the scales against a lot of assertions and jabbering mediums who, we aro told, will occasionally lie? FOUBTH NIGHT. In his opening speech last night Dr. Hull said bis opponent asked why he conld not see spirits. Balaam’s ass saw a spirit when his riffer did not, and in these days donkeys are sometimes granted privileges which are Dot extended to more intelligent creatures. Saul testifies to the fact that Jesus bad risen from the dead, giving the names of vari ous persons who had seen him. Fourteen years ago, the mother of the speaker died, bnt be knows that she is now alive, because several mediums (whom he named) had seen her. If this is no proof that the speaker's mother is alive now, how do you prove that Jesus rose from the dead, simply because of the fact that certain persons said they saw him? He had told the night previous of Andrew Patts having been earned seven miles and a half by spirits. He was engaged at the time in playing on the violin “The Last Bose of Summer,” or some other sacred air, having bad an Appointment to go to Mechaniesbnrg with other Spiritaalists to form a circle, bnt mistaking the boor, failed to get on the train. All at ones, while still playing the violin, he found himself and violin In Mechaniesbnrg, seven miles and a hall off, and disoovared that the train had not yst arrived ; and so he went down to the depot to meet it. In the Bible we are told that Elijah told Obadiah to go and tell King Ahab where he (Elijah) was, but Obadiah was afraid to do so, knowing that Ahab had sought Elijah to destroy him, and that the prophet had avoided the King's soldiers by being carried a distance of thirty- four miles by spirits, and Obadiah feared that this miracle would be repeated if he should tell the King where Elijah was, and then he himtelf would be killed, if the soldiers of Ahab failed to find Elijah. If Elijah could be carried by spirits a distance of thirty-four miles, why could not Andrew Patts and his violin be transported by the same means, seven miles and a half V The speaker believed that the book of Bev- elation is nothing more than a series of coa ls for sneering and scoffing at the Bible, he bad no thought, or intention of doing so, sL'mioaiuui bnt be reads it just as he reads any other j mnnications given to the entranced medium, wunont moves mu. ne was sunnortod bv i book.

Where is the proof that they do? When God sends his spirit from on high, he sends him not to write on walls or tip tables, or to transmit his messages in the dark, but to do his work in God’s own light Two thousand years ago, these same tricks we see performed to-day were performed by the Persians.

His reading of the Bible led him to believe that it was not the fiDger of God which did the writing on the wall at Belshazzar’s feast, but that it was tbe finger of a man’s hand. He had seen the fingers of a man’s hand, with no arm attached, seize a pencil and write messages. John G. Holland has declared that in no bers of the circle, the medium, or the inquirer. If a single instance is shown where this is not the case, he could show a hundred where it is. A gentleman asked a medium to call up the spirit of a brother. It was done, when the living brother asked, through the medium, where his brother had died, fixing his mind upon Salem at the same time, although his brother bad really died at Boston. The me dium answered Salem, reading that name in the mind of the inquirer. He then asked for the day of the week on which his brother had died, fixing bis mind on Saturday, although | bis brother had died on Monday. “Satur- said he could sit across the room and direct i way could that poetrv (which is published as the mind of the person operating Tlanchette. | coming from Poe's 'spirit) be written except j ^"‘^pheciTho «pirit,7hr“^gh"the medium Hull claimed that spintuahsm now nurn- that it be by the spirit of Poe himself.

Dr. Harrison held that his belief in bis Bnle is not the result of testimony, bni that it baa been demonstrated to be true. He could not believe that the spirit of those who were educated men while on earth would com municate with us to-day through the medium of ungrammatical and badly spelled sentences. If spirits know anything, and are anywhere, they know a great deal, and are everywhere, and he would like to have one of his opponent spirits present, at tbe time, and tell him (the speaker) jast what his lamily were doing at home. As a man, he proposed to treat Dr. Hull kindly, but as an author, he would, during the debate, handle him without gloves, to which observation Dr. Hull responded “amen.” SECOND NIGHT. In his fir.->t argument Dr. Hull said that his opponent had threatened to handle his (HullV/ books without gloves. To this, he would say amen ! but he might “catch a Tar tar,” and while his opponent was handling his books, be (Hall) would undertake to han dle him.

But the speaker came here to debate on spiritualism—not to demonstrate it. His friend, Dr. Harrison, had said that whether or not there were spirits in Bible limes was not the question, but he thought it was. lie had also said that his (Hamson’s) religion has been demonstrated. Jesus says: “If you have faith though bnt as a grain of mustard seed, you can remove mountains." Try it. What kind of testimony have you that Laza rus was dead at the time of his supposed res urrection? Yon hAve not the testimony of a single person present that he was raised, or that he was even dead- you have nothing but lhe ipse dixit of the writer. In considering the Bible I am not allowed to use my reason Did God make my brain lor n»o to nss ? If I cannot believe the Bible stories, there is some thing wrong, for God has made us out of har mony with each other. There is a city described to us ns being in Leaven, which city, wo are told, is 12,000 long, 12,000 furlongs wide, and 12,- 000 fn >high.

Here tbe speaker read from a book publish- j ed by Dr. Hull, an extract characterizing God as a “passionate human spirit, whom the Bible calls “ God.” He was disappointed at the course his op ponent had been pursuing. He had demand- i ed the first night, demonstrations of the asser- | tion that spirits can take living beings by the hand, and hold communication with them, but no such demonstrations had been pro duced, as yet, but, on the contrary, hi3 oppo nent had failed to touch the point at issue. Will Mr. Hull stand up here and say he has seen spirits ? Dr. Hall—Yes, sir. Dr. Harrison—Tben you are one man out of a thousand. (Laughter.) Dr. Hull said in his second argument, that Dr. Harrison must pot himself under certain influences in order to receive his desired mes sage in either Hebrew, Greek or Latin, and that be had refused to putbiroself under those influences. If he understands those languages he would say the message was taken from his head; if be does not, he would refuse to ac cept the message as being in one of those lan guages. He had witnessed demonstrations « n the part oi spirits, which convinced him that they were able to hold tangible intercourse, or communion with living beings. At one time he saw a spirit take an apple out of a basket and eat a portion of it [laughLrJ. and be would find os many instances wherein Jesus had failed to perform miracles as there were instances where mediums had failed to per forin their tasks. He had be. n picked up by a sp rit and carried across a room—some t»ix- teen feet—[laughter] and he knew of a rnau in Pennsylvania who had missed the train he expectrd to take. He was instantly taken up by a spirit, carried seven miles and a half, and deposited, at bis journey’s end, in advance of tbe express traiu, which had Ivft town before be bud.

We are receiving inquiries daily in regard ! to the tragedy at the Bender farm. Up to this date there is nothing new that we know of. The report of the entire Bender family being captured about thirteen miles south of Dallas, Texas, was untrue, so interested par ties say. Tresslar Brothers of Fort Scott, Kansas, sent us a circular advertising stereo scopic views of ibe Bender house and burying grounds situated one and a half miles from Cherry vale. For the benefit of those who are misrepresenting the location of the Bender farm, we will state that the farm is seven miles northeast of Cherryvale, and is in Labette county, two miles southeast of Morehead station. We wonld like to correct the statement that tbeso murders occurred in our immediate vicinity or county. Latest ad vices report that detectives are on the trail of the Bender outfit Farther than this we are unable to learn, as it is desired to keep all important movements secret Bo gus reports and rumors are in circulation, the object being to throw the detectives off the tr?»ck.
