This does not look as if the gold produet of Cali

prised when we hear of the discovery of viens deep
er and richer than any yet found, and the return
■of the gold fever.
Mining is all a lottery. A few days ago I had
in iny | ossession a imckit-hinulkurcliiel I nil of gold
dust, belonging to two brothers who had dug it out
ill Salmon river in six weeks time; obtaining §IOOO
worth in a single day. These young men are the
sons of Mr. Wiley, a bank-letter in !>.;~v.ai. l'or
two years prior to this lucky strike, the younger
of the two brothers (now a line rugged healthy
looking youngster) had been mining at Deer Creek,
with so little success, that when joined by the other

after a passage of 5 1 , months round the Horn) lie
was in debt, and just recovered from a lit of siek
: ness. They immediately repaired to new diggings
at Salmon River, and were so fortunate that in a
I few weeks, they obtained “ a pile” commensurate
with their moderate desires. Then with oommeu-
I dable prudenec and good taste they struck a bee
line “ for their home in Massachusetts, where they
! arrived in good order and well conditioned,right side
I up. It is pleasant to have such an instance as this
I to record, for to one like this there a hundred just
|at tho otlior extreme. In 99 cases in 109, those
who go to California are sadly disappointed.—
I Driven to the direst necessity by ill uecess, some
[ become desperate, and pray upon the more fortu
nate. Some of these would shoot a man. or cut a
throat for five dollars. Others sicken and die for
want of nursing. Hundreds become dissolute and
licentious. Even those who “do well, and pre
serve a degree of respectability, and return to us
with their morals in as good preservation as they
were when they left us—l have observed numer
ous little indications of this fact even in men who
you would have; believed, had moral independence
and strength sufficient to preserve their liahits of
thought and body, manner of expression &c. &c.
free from contamination. One of the best cases
that 1 noticed, is a man who was correct not only
in liis morals but in bis language also: together
with his pi cos gold dust, be has brought home j
with him another acquisition, I uuan the vulgar }
and wicked habit of swearing. On the whole, j
therefore, 1 think that young men will feel quite
as well in the long run to stay at home.
Dr. Spring preached yesterday the fourth of his
series of discourses u, on “The Glory of ( lirist.
His theme this time, was “Christ as a preacher,
and his text Matt. 7 chr., 23 and 24 verses.
The project for “preaching the gospel, on suita
ble occasions, in the streets and the market places,
and wharves and parks, and vvhe ever congrega
tions may be assembled to hear, in accordance with
the municipal regulations, to which obedience is
due,” is not yet in operation, but is maturing.
In consideration of the facts that about 10,000
arrests for criminal conduct, are made in the city
every three jnonths ; that 0,000 rum shops (cither
brilliant or beggarly) are open every day in the
week; that the Sabbath is almost systematically
desecrated, by Sunday excursions, dance houses
and “Sunday evening concerts : that millions ot
irreligious foreigners have landed at this point
during the last 10 years; that there exists among
| a portion of the natives a spirit of opposition to
order and to laws regarded as obnoxious; that
hundreds of the German population are professed
Atheists, declaiming at their Hoboken conventicle
and their three places of Sabbath meeting in the
city; that “there is no God;” “down with the
’ church ;” “down with that lie about religion!”
| “down with propertyand that at least 100,000
adults in this city, never attend public worship ;
it would certainly seem to be incumbent upon eve-
I ry truly Christian citizen to make energetic and
extraordinary efforts to regenerate New 1 ork.
The 32nd Congress, convening to-day, is looked
to with profound interest, by our commercial men
and manufacturers, but a still dee or interest is
[ felt by those who have no mercenary desire to serve,
| and who. actuated by the purest patriotism, have
the integrity and harmony of our be ovod country

of disunion. May true statesmen, anni

The Splr It Jlnolfc-tallona at Anhurm
BY J. L. SCOTT. - * , ‘ ...
It lias been observed that Mrs. E. A. lfdneiliei haa ”
been the principle*” medium” foiyhose spirits wh i&-
teach the docirlfie of redemption *t A"t>urn, and if
may be well l add that although many others are
now employed in the grout work in this city, _as well
as elsewhere, site >s the “ medium” for those com*
inuuications which tire, published in the name of A
postles and Prophets, and which are presented to
! the world in aseuh monthly entit'ed “Dia
j closures from the Interior, and Superior Care for,
Mortals also fcp the directions ‘given to the Au
hurti Circle as affecting their general movement, in
ibis pyoqpljirgj. Hence* We feed itampera

u b- t-l-p-fetoti tin smj ja hoi n int’f
various instances connected with the phenomena as
developed with us. . . .
We are authentically informed that Mra, D. hid
never visited a “ medium,’’ nr heard a sound called
“ spirit rapping” previous to her hearing them at her
own house, with no “ medium” save herself; that
until mouths after site was known as such she did
no’ hear a sound,ln the presence of any olaef ‘'tne*
dium.”
She first heard lhc“ rappings” April, 18-19, which
; were made on the side ol I lie house, and under the*
I first step of the stairway. The sound was unlike any
j oilier with which the family were familiar, and at
■ times so loud as to he heard some distance. ’They
removed the stair steps am! made diligent search to
discover their origin, not admitting them to be spir
its. Still they became more constant undin the im
mediate \ ictni'y of .Mrs. 11. until it was supposed that
she was the *’ mcd’iimßut as she did not admit
it, and not believing her presence necessary to the
sound, she often lelt those who were investigating l
in this way the manifestations proceeded for some
mouths be lore any mode of communication was es
tablished with the spirits, who are now endeavoring
to lead us in the way’of peace aud holiness by this
method of instruction.
Mrs. Benedict desired to conceal the sounds as
soon as she an ;criaimd that she was recognized as
a “ medium, ’and often avoided quietude to accom
plish that object. Bui in proportion to her passivi
ty the nearer the sounds appoached her, and the
more uniform tlie intonations, until finally by the ad
vice of a fe\v Iriiytds she resolved with them th en
gage in the investigation and ailbrtleviry opportuni
ty to the spirits, or whatever created the sounds, to
inamle-t themselves through ties procedure to the
world. Alter this, continuous intonations, were of
ten heard like Close “• calling ior the alphabet,” but
no one understanding their import, they were not
heed and.
i it; June -..Towing, Mrs. i*r;cs*, of. -c lui'ry.-fajy ’ ’
| calieii at Mrs. Benedicts, and oil hearing the
1 .-uunds, thought ilk tn analogous to those with which
her uncle Jonathan I'iosser, conversed when she
was hut a small girl, and she enquired if tire spirit
o; Him uncae was present, if so to rap the atiirum
tioii a.- me spirits on.l lu him ; this was loliowed by
! three raps : she lii -n desired k.m to give lire nega
tion, and one rap was tlu r. spume. This introduc
!ed uie mulhod ol communication with the spirits at
| Airs. Benedict's, and also lurinshed an absolute test",
uu mg i his interview Mrs. i riest, mtormed Mrs.
B. t!i;u tier uncle while uu ins last visit at tier fath
er s, caned the children, and a tier seating them a
i round a taule, remarked that lie Wished before Isav
-Img lu inlortu luum concerning (lie lulure. lie tiieu
| said tie Sued vorvur.-ed witll spirits ol the departed
1 lor many year-, during which lime he had been utl
i der tin ir constant uis.li uclioii, and that some of those
children would probably live until a great spiritual
m inilestatio.i sin u.d lake place; tliai be bad been
informed by spirits of such an approaching event.—
idui ilie spoils who iommunicated with Inin, wished
him not to puuiis.lt :t to me world, lor ilie people were
in n prepared to receive lie iniclligence, as the time
j nad not come, they would not hear, •“ they would not
; he.ieve though an angel declare it unto them.” Al
; so ilie development would most likely occasion much
excitement, and perhaps persecution of the earliest
believers. Many important truths in relation to man
as lo Ids present condition, and that alter death, the
final reign oi peace on earth and ultimate of the race,
! would be uMolded ; that the world would be uuiver
-1 sally nll'ected by the spirits of the departed, iio then
r..p,,id on the table, which he said was „o call the
! spirits ; and il they answered, they responded by
| raps. If no answer came lie did not urge, and pa
! liently waited another opportunity.
While the lady was relating the foregoing, tiie
spirit purporting to be that of her uncle responded,
and mtormed them iiow lie conversed with spirt s
while in the body, and that tiie present was the pe
riod referred to by himselt when site last saw him.
Thus was introduced at Mrs. B‘s. tiie method of
j hold ug couveise with spirits by questions which
■ into lit be answered yes and no, and was the first sat
i isfactiou obtained by tiie sounds. Jt is not however,
| claimed that tins is the origin of tlmt mode, only as
[ c.onnucied with this “ medium,” and this occurred
m June 1849.
In September loliowing, a gentleman familiar with
cimimiioicutiim by alphabelt *'isited them,and iuturm
ed them now to communicate Ihruugh that method.
This mode altlioi gli lamiliar to many, requires expla
nation ior the benefit of those who are not already
informed upon tlio subjeci. Hence vve observe tiiat
a succession of sounds equal in lime anJ iiitona
iions indicate the call lor the alphabet, and then an
individual calls it over commencing at the first let
ter, and continuing until tire letter desired is named
when the spirit “ raps.” Commencing again, ‘elter
after letter is repeated until tire next is named, and
lints continue until the word, sentence, and para
graph is spt lied. Should a wrong letter be set down
j me spirit immediately repeats a continuation of
: pounds as It calling lor the alphabet, or in a confused
manner, wait h indicates a mistake, and luat the one
t who calls the alphabet, should “go back’ and begin;in
; tuis way errors are corrected; and this is tiie inode
iof communicating by alphabet. As the time and
sp ice w ill a low us we shall hasten in this history
| gleaning only tno leaui g incidents until we arrive
!>u the “ present,” in ’he great movement.
