A cotempohary alluding to tho numerous
cases of suicide, nnd murdering of children by
mothers in the Northwest, says: “When tho
fathers in that country determine to tnr nnd
feather every fnnuticnl lecturer they cntcli in the
act of haranguing silly people on the subject
of spiritualism, frccloveism, and damphoolism
generally, the throats of their children will be
safe.”
Butler’s lecture in Tweddle Ilall, Albauy,on

than iu the field of battle.”
