The Evangelical Association Creating

The Commercial published a sensa
tion this morning in the proceedings of
the day previous to the Evangelical

subject of criminal abortion was intro

lield, of St. Paul’s Methodist Episco

Tuk ng the Brunswick train Sat-
itr lay night, in company with Mr.
Mason and Mr. Campbell, of Macon,
who were also going down for the same
purpose, our reporter, Mr. Peter Lin
den-truth, arrived at tlie poiut of des
tination a little after four o’clock Sun
day morning.
NO. 6, Oil SURRENCY.
Getting oil the tram, they loutid no
one in the little place as yet up, hut
going to the house of Mr. A. 1*. Snr-
reney, they were admitted to a vacant
room, the lire in which had nearly
died out.
We may as well remrk here that the
town Or depot of Surrency consists
only of a station-house, one or two
places of business, and the residence of
tne gentleman from whom it takes its
name. It is situated in Appiingcounty,
12b miles from Macon, and about sixt y
Irom Brunswick. Mr. Surrency is a
gentleman well-to-do in the world,
and is universally regarded as one of
the iiio-t honorable citizens of the
county, and it would seem tnnt his
hou>e would lie the last one ghosts
would select in which to ply mis
chief.
T.»E FIRST BRICK.
Mr. Lindenstruth, Gliding the fire
uca.-Jy out, went to the wood pile to 1
get Something to make it up. While 1
returning he heard a heavy thud |
upon the ll ior of another room, as if 1
something lit ary had (alien. Think-J
ing some member of the family had
arisen, he paid no more attention to j
it. liut subset] unit events convinced
nim that was toe first brick thrown by
the ghosts, or whatever agency
work ott the premises, as no member
of the family had as yet got up.
WHAT MR. SURRENCY SAYS.
Soon after daylight Air. Suriency
•■.line into the room, :utd after giving
directly in his line. He stopped the
cioea, carefully examined the mneitin-
ry and found it in perfect order
but nothing whatever unusual, inside
or out. He could not for the life of
him see the slightest thing wrong
about it.
THE MAGNET THEORY.
It ha- been suggested that there may
he a large magnet about or under the
house, hut magnets ..o not attract
wooden substances, and, beside-,
while the clock was running at its
rapid rate Mr. L. had his watch in lti.-
pocket, which kept on its usual way,
and was not in tlie least affected, lie
set the clock right, when it continued
to keep correct time up to the time h
left.
A RED HOT BRICKBAT.
Nothing else unusual occurred until
seventeen minutes before twelve o’clock,
when tlie performance re-opened by a
pair of scissors jumping trout th ■
table to the floor. At that time Mr.
Lindens'ruth was sitting in a chair,
when, without the slightest premoni
tion, a large brickbat fell with gre.u
force rig'it beside him, breaking in two.
He immediately picked up a piece ot
it and handed it to Mason, and both
found it hot. Then taking up the
other piece he tried two or three times
to break it by throwing it on the floor,
hut failed. lie then laid this second
half on tlie sill of a window in the
room intending to bring it home.
Resuming his seat near the front sloop,
he was again startled by the piece he
bad placed on the window falling at
his feet, and once more creaking in:;
two pieces. He did not pick it up
again.
At twelve o'clock a smoothing iron
y I jumped front the fire place •nbout six
,s nt ' feet into the room. It was replaced
and again jumped out. He noticed
that the iron was also hot, hut this
may have beeen heated at the tire.
A SHOWER OF CORN.
At about this time dinner was an
bis gu >ts a hearty welcome, proeeede.i i nounce d, when the family and many
had , jmiijts walked out to the table. Soon
to tell from the beginning what
taken place up to tiiat time.
On Friday evening, a short while
before dark, the family were greatly'
alarmed by sticks ol wood living iuto
the hou-e and M in* a!>out the floor,
from directions they could tell nothing
about, and without any human agency
they could see or find out. The wood
would fall before being seen, and
"hut made the mystery still more
niy-terious, the room into which the
woo 1 was falling lmd all its doors and
windows closed. This was in the front
room.
h msehold furniture lias been ruined
or is every day being destroyed by an
unseen power.
A HOG APPEARS ON THE FLOOR.
Front conductor II. H. Sharpe, of
the Brunswick road, who came up
this morning, we learn that on yester
day whilst six or eight men aud women
were sitting in the front or parlor
room, a hog deliberately walked in at
the door and without showing the
slightest signs of trepidation, advanced
to the center of tlie room. Every one
remained motionless — conversation
cea-ed—nil eyes were turned upon the
strange visitor. The hog stood for a
blood of the unborn innocents. He
called upon the ministers present to
look the evil in the lace and confer
together as ministers of God, as mem
bers of society, and as parents, for the
best means to check the evil and save
American Society and American life
from destruction. He stated that
upon inquiry and investigation he
found that physicians were importuned
every day to produce ahortious by
the ladies of the highest standing, aud

the middle of the floor, and after doing
so walked into an adjoining room.
Every one followed it. Whilst some
w rein the room, some were ill the do »r,
but all intently watching wh it it would
do, it instantly vanished like a vapor
or an appa a ion. lei in; its midi -nee
stupefied with horror, with no one able
i.o tell how it escaped. The windows
■vere down and no means whatever
open for escape.
AN OLD SAILOR TAKES A STRANGE
DRINK.
Among the numerous visitors yester
day was an old sea captain by the
name of Burns, who has been around
the world three or four times, and who
was determined to unravel the mystery
if possible, or at least some ]M>rtion of
it. Getting into the house, he was
told of the smoothing iron tricks, and
selecting that as a particular object to
watch, he sat down before it. He
watched the iron for .a long time with
out seeing it move, and getting dry,
he longed for a bottle of whisky which
he knew Mr. Surrency hud in an ad
joining room. No sooner had- he
thought of this than the bottle fell at
-iis side; he picked it up aud helped
himself, set it down and continued to
eye the iron. It did not move, but the
bottle left as mysteriously as it ap
peared.
THE TESTIMONY OF MR. W. C. REMS-
II ART.
Under date of the 22d, Mr. W. C.
llein-haiirt writes front Jesup to the
Blaekshear Georgian as follows :
Knowing you would like to hear
something about the strange doings in
tlie house of Mr Surrcncv, I have
don’t care ; if you don’t do it I’il do it
ntyself, for my husband don’t want
any more children, aud neither do I.”
Dr. Hatfield cited the Iloman Catholic
Church as settiug an example of
watchfulness over its people in this re
spect, so much so that he, ns a Pro
testant minister, stood abashed and
silent before the Catholics, he said.
And even the German were rais
ing more children in tins country than
any other people in it; and if some
thing was not done to prevent
DESTL’RTION OF FOETAL LIFE
among the American people, the gov
ernment of the country would eventu
ally pass into the hands of foreigners.
Rev. Granville Moody, of the same
Church, and Rev. Henry D. Moore,
of the Congregational Church, affected
not to believe the statements, but the
former finally acknowledged that there
was something in them, but it was es
sential to be guarded in expression, as
there was a reporter present.
The thing lias produced a genuine
sensation and made the assembled rev
erends - look at each other ttr if the bop
turn had been knocked out of things.
The publication was the town talk to
day, and will set theological scientists
on a new trail.

pearently from the ceiling overhead,
fell between Mr. James Campbell, of
Macon, and Mrs. Surrency ; striking
the floor with great force it broke in
two, scattering the grains all around
tlie room. Later in the day another
ear of corn fell in another room,
striking near Mrs. Burns, a Northern
lady, who at the time had an infant in
her arms.

BOTTLES AND GLASS TAKE A HAND.

falling bottles, vases, and glassware

from the ceiling overhead, and indeed
everything else falling did so perpen
dicularly—that is to s ir came straight
down from above.
These strange antics continued with
scarcely one minute’ interruption until
daylight Saturday morning, when they
ceased, leaving the house nearly bank
rupt in crockery and glassware and a
m ge quantity of brickbats and billets
ot Wood around the floor.

But the ghost, spirits, or whatever
else they might be called, did not
choose to give them any manifestations,
and the train left in about an hour,
taking most of them back. A few re
mained, however, determined to see
into the matter. There were at least
three or four hundred persons on the
ground during Sunday’, and up to the
lime our reporter left fully five hun
dred had visited the place.
OTHER SIGNS AND WONDERS.
While all these things were going on
in the house, tlie kitchen department
was by no means idle. Butcher-
knives, pots, skillets aud crockery
were falling around loose, to the terror
and horror of the cook.
Another mysterious thing occurred
on the first or second day. Little
piles of sugar, totally unlike anything
of the kind then used by the family,
were found upon the fl »ors of tlie resi
dence. In one of these a few pins and
a steel pen were found. There were
various other incidents of this totally
incomprehensible mystery related to
and seen by our rcjiorter, but enough
have already been given.
WIIAT IS IT ?
No one who has yet visited the place
can give any rational theory as to the
agency which produces these strange
sights. Mr. Surrency is a plain, old-
fashioned Georgia gentleman, and is
greatly annoyed aud disgusted with
the whole proceedings. He peremp
torily refused any compensation from
any one of the two or three hundred
persons who have eaten at his table.
If they are produced by magnets, they
must be of a different kind from any
ever known.

description of the sufferings of its vic
tims. b there any cure for it ? A
correspondent of the Detroit Tribune
describes » case where the man was in
convulsions aud harked like a dog, but
which seeuts tp have been successfully
treated. The Tribune says: “ Du-
iug these convulsions the patient would
seize tbe pillows from his bed in his
teeth, and shake and rend them with
.all thtfrsqpmiug ferocity of an .angry

exhibited, itself. The doctors decided
to place the patient upon the same
treatment which had been successful
iu a former case, which, for the aid it
.may he to others who suffer from this
disease, wo here give, as follows : The
injection under the skin of large doses
of morphine and the administration of
large doses of castor, which is a power-
fill anti-spasmodic. Abcut one grain
of sulphate of morphine was injected
under the skin once in four hours, and
half a drachm of powdered castor,
mixed with syrup, given internally.
The effect was to produce sleep in
about an hour and a half, which lasted
about the same time, when the con
vulsions returned at intervals of an
hour to an hour and a half until 9
o’clock Sunday morning, when tlie last
convulsion occurred; after which he
suffered severely from obstinate vomi
ting until Monday at 10 o’clo k,
when that also ceased leaving
the patient comparatively easy,
hut very much prostrated. Since
that time he has gradually im
proved, and now is, to a.l appearances,
quite well. Iu addition to the aliove
treatment snail quantities of chloro
form were inhaled at times, and on
Sunday morning the patient was wrap-
lied in a woolen blanket wrung out of
warm solution of muriate of ammonia,
eighteen to twenty grains to the ounce.
This was the triatment which checked
this fearful malady and which the doc
tors, for the sake of humanity, are
anxious should lie published to the
world and thoroughly tested.”
A Tennessee Belle in Italy.—
The l’rincess Marguerite admires Miss
l’olk very much. She often says,
playfully, if she were a man she should
fall in love with her. On Monday
she talked a great deal with our beau
tiful American belle. The Prince also
entered into the conversation some
times, and when he and tlie Princess
regretted Miss Polk’s projected visit to
America this winter, Priuco Humbert
said, playfully, he should issue an or
der prohibiting her from leaving the
country. As the Princess Marguerite
admired Miss Polk's toilette, I must
give it among the rest of niv chi fans.
The long bounced skirt and overdress
were ot white mull, with dark blue
velvet sash and bows; a blue velvet
jacket, trimmed with broad white point
lace, hung over her arm; at her belt
was a morocco chatelaine, set with rock
turquoises and garnets, with enambled
chains for fan, scent bottle, portemon-
naic, parosol, etc., each of which was
i>riiainented in morocco, as the chate
laine. She wore a Spanish hat of blue
velvet, with long blue and white ostrich
plumes; her splendid chestnut hair,
which is all her own, was let down in
long, rich loops on her neck.
“ How pretty your hair is,” said the
Princess Marguerte, with the naivete
of a girl. “ I wish I had worn mine
so to-day. It is always the most be
coming style. But I had it put up
high on account of the fashion, aud it
is not half so nice.”
The Princess Marguerite also has
beautiful hair of hor own, and very
naturally likes to show its richness and
length.
A Hungarian Ykagedy.—A spir
ited Red Riding Hood, aged twelve,
was met by two wire workers while car
rying some food to her friends work
ing in a field near St. Audrasz, Hun
gary. The two gypsies demanded of
the girl to let them have the provis
ions, hut were stoutly resisted by the
girl, when the monsters seized her and
tied every limb of her body with wire
so tight that the tlesh was cut iuto, and
then they passed a wire through both
lips of tlie little sufferer and twisted it
twice to rending. This horihle mar
tyrdom was enacted in a ntaize field,
where the fiends consumed the provis
ions she had so valorously aud hero
ically defended. The owner of the
field linp|iened to pass by, and, hear
ing a faint moaning, the horrible sight
soon opened upon him. Retreating
hastily to fetch help, he fortunately
met the commissaries and two pau-
dours, who were chasing vagrants.
The monsters were taken into custody
a few hours afterwards. A Smith had
to bo called to open the wire net by
which the interesting martyr was tor
tured, but, sad to say, when tlie wire
was extracted from her lips the poor
girl breathed her last.

Interesting Statistics.—We
gather from a fable of historical statis
tics, which embraces 64 nations, since
the commencement of the monarchical
form of government to the eighteenth
century, the following facts: Among
the 2,542 sovereigns named in these
tables are mentioned, 260 kings de
throned ; 64 abdicated ; 20 who com
mitted suicide; 11 attacked with mad
ness; 105 slain in battle; 123 made
prisoners; 25 who were martyred ; 151
assassinated; 62 poisoned, and 108
condemned to death. Among these
64 nations, and during the same per-
riod, 85,31 ware and 275 revolutions
took place, whereby 68,856,700 men
were killed. These are some fine ex
amples of the beauties of kingcraft.—
