nowhere to pat tbe mace when the Hotise is in
session, and no means, therefore, of indicating,
by tbe removal of the banble,’ that members
have resolved themselves into committee of the
whole House. As the Honse, however, never
leaves the chair, the latter defect is of less con
sequence, and the only serious informality in
their proceedings is that there is no mace vis
ible when the Speaker is in the chair.
An animated debate was in progress, and the
apparitor named for onr information the vari
ous speakers who rose alternately to attack or
defend the proposition then before the House.
Unacoustomed as we were to the public speak
ing of spirits, and to the extreme rapidity which
they communicate their thonghts, most of the
speakers were, to use the M. 0.*s expression,
‘inaudible in the gallery,’ and we were at last
compelled to ask our guide what was the srb-
jsct of discussion.
■Oh,’ he replied, ‘they have but one subject of
discussion, and it arises directly out of the leg
islation of which we have been lately speak
ing.'
‘Indeed,’ said the M. C., ‘what is that sub
ject?’
‘The question of Free Will,* replied the appa
ritor, glancing at the country gentleman, whose
attention was instantly arrested. ‘When they
f iund it impossible to apply criminal law to tbe
correction and punishment of evil wishes and
intentions, the efforts of the reformers were nat
urally directed towards the root of the evil, and
they turned their attention to attempts to check
and prevent the existence of these evil wishes,
intentions, etc., in the breasts of spirits. How
ever. the extreme severity of the repealed legis
lation has produced its natural effect in a con
servative reaction, and the necessitarian party
i3 now in a slight msj >rity. Their contention
is, that all legislation with the object of improv
ing the moral condition of spirits is futile, and
that the utmost they can do is confined to re
straining, by the addition of deterrent motives,
the manifestations of a bad moral condition in
overt acts. They argue that as it is even doubt
ful whether man is not the slave of the stronger
motive, and so incapable of independently in-
fi tenolng even his outward nets, so he musta
fortiori be incapable of freeing himself from the
solicitation of motives, whose presentation of
themselves to him is,—free will or no free will,
— clearly independent of his control. The Free
Will party, on the other hand, argue, that mo
tives properly so called are more subjective’—
here the country gentleman drew a long breath
of gratified interest—‘and that though the
mere thought of performing an evil a ti n iru y
and perhaps must, always arise in the mind
where an alternative of good or evil action is
presented, yet this does not constitute a motive
(which is, in strict language, n't an idea of,
but a prompt ng to, action, exercising a certain
appreciable bias upon the willl, and that, by an
assiduous training of the will (to be provided
for all by legislative enactment), this force may
be reduced to a minimum, and a last abso
lately disappear, so that the so-called motive in
question is no longer either felt as a motive by
the agent, or is visible in operation to the spec
tator. It is a beautiful point, is it not?’
‘It is indeed,’ said tbe country gentleman.
‘How long have they been debating it? en
quired the M. C.
‘Continuously, and without a moment’s ces
sation, through all the years which have elapsed
since the repeal of the Criminal Code.’ was the
reply.
•You amaze me.’said the M. C., ‘pray why
the dene.- don't they divide?’
‘A'lq lestions btfore the legislature have to
be settled by an unanimous vote,’ replied tbe
apparitor. ‘Do yon think tbe rough human ex
pedient of majorities could be tolerated by
spirits, particularly on such questions as this ?
Besides, where all are cq ialty disinterested,
and all are equally competent to, judge, all
should be convinced. So they go on from y6ir
to year, speech succeeding to speech, argument
to argument. No spirit ever leaves rhe House,
tbe Speaker never for a moment q ii!s tbe chair,’
(the poet here cast a glance of profound sym
pathy at that official) and so they will, nay
must, continue in session to all eternity.’
•Eternity!'exclaimed the country gentleman,
aghast. ‘Humph! that‘s rather too much. No
one can be fonder of these discussions than I
am—in moderation, and with a good bot le of
wine to wet one’s logic—but to go on for ever,
that seems to me rather a waste of time.’
•And yet,’ said the M C., musingly, ‘and yet
the vast issues which hang upon tho problem;
the grand gains to the world of spiri’.s if theal-
vocatts of Free Will could prove their case, and
law might cease to chastise, and learn to purify.
Can an eternity be better spent than in efforts,
to achieve this moral deliverance for one’s fol
lows. Besides, is it so certain that they are
futile ?‘
‘You know they are,’ replied the apparitor,
half in pity half in disdain. ‘Were they not so
on earth, and is the problem any clearer to you
here ?’
‘No, indeed,* said the country gentleman,
shaking his bead.
‘There is but one way of solving it, tbe way
which you have all so well chosen;’ continued
the apparitor, always with that unpleasant half-
«inile that crossed his f stares when he spekeof
our plans for the future.
•True,’said the M C., eagerly; ‘but cannot
one reveal the s dution to others ?
‘Impossible,’ replied tbo apparitor, in a sol
emn vo oi. ‘Between us and that region that
holds the keys to the secrets of man’s life, flows
the great liiver of the Mystery. None return
thence to tell other what they have seen. E.ic’u
must deliver himself; they that abide in the
city. None can know the secret who will not
surrender all for the knowledge. These spirits
here,’ and he pointed to the disputants below,
‘are freed indeed from the lower passions and
vanities et the eat th, but tae’pride of intellect
and tbe joy of dispute, and the thirst for action,
hold them yet. They love the treasure less than
the search. Come, let us be going.’
But we st : ll lingered, fascinated by tie sc ne
before us. We g»zed on those ranks of anxious
spirits, bound together by a common passion
for unattainable knowledge. We watched the
incessant altercation of eager disputanis, and
the majestic calm of the motionless presiding
spirit; we thought of the years that had passed
over them in unwearied controversy, of the ever
lasting, and also of tbe (to an American mind)
utterly unpractical character of thtir occupation
and a strange mixture of feelings possessed our
minds. The indescribable light of the spirit-
world flowed in and flooded tbit chamber of
eternal session; from without floated in the
laughter and light foot-f .ID of the city loungers
and the quick but measured tread of the ‘spiri
of business,’ and the whole prnor iniii of human
life seemed enfolded before and behind us, for
our admiration, our pity, and our contempt.
Lite, in its contented 'idleness and Ms unhappy
dignity—life, the roui, . ■>! peri tori . and pet
ty pleasures, or the struggle-01 et-.ual aspira
tion and eternal dtf a .
•You have seeD enough of the city,* said the
apparitor, as we left the chamber and regained
the open street; ‘and our time, moreover, is
short. We must return to Minos. The court
will have risen and the Chief Justico will be ex
pecting us.’
We followed our guide through the streets of
the city, not sorry to be leaving it—I speak, at
least, for the majority. With the exception of
the M. C., whose thoughts were still lingering
by the scene we had just left, we were all heart
ily wearied of its sights and sounds. We had
, been on earth the mer6 toilers at business
or pleasure from whose ranks the vast spirit pop
ulation of this oity is reoruited. Its ceaseless,
inexorable life filled us with bewilderment and
unrest. No doubt,aa the apparitor had told ns,
the fashion of the world we had left still clung
to us; but we could not think of the utter sleep
lessness of this densely populated city without
a kind of terror. We felt—only with infinitely
more intensity—the sensations of a man who,
standing at midnight on some eminence that
neighbors New York, and listening to the faint
murmur which never quite ceases in her streets,
suffers himself to think of the mighty city as of
one living being. Then he will think how, for
years, perhaps for centuries, this creature has
never known sleep—such sleep as visits the ham
let when the last footfall has sounded in its sin
gle street, thetast cottage door has been shut,
the last lattice light quenobed, and the river left
to babble to itself under the deserted bridge; but
bow, for generations and generations, she has
waked through the endless procession of the
hours — sleepless in her toil, her revel, and
her tears: the last footsteps of the night's de
bauch sounding through her vexed streets with
the first footsteps of the morrow's toil—a red
glare ever overhanging her roofs like the reflec
tion of her fevered, unslumbering eyes.
Bnt this awe, which none feel on earth but
those who can realise and think of a great city
as a whole, oppressed us, fresh from the earth,
with far greater urgency in this city where no
one slept and bnt few even rested. We now
contemplated, with all our former horror and
aversion, the condition of those spirits who
could voluntarily plunge themselves ia turmoil
more restless and incessant than that of an
earthly oity—unrelieved even by those pauses
which render such a life tolerable upon earth. I
must, however, aid, in common fairness, that
we were naturally begining to get bored with a
city in which we had seen all the sights which
it had to show us; and the moral repulsion whioh
we now felt reviving in our minds when we
thought of its inhabitants, was, no doubt, large
ly stimulated by ennui. Still, from whatever
cause, we were well pleased to find ourselves
emerging from the city by way of one of its
fashionable suburbs. To closely packed streets
began to sacceed rows ot semi-detached bouses,
then of detached villas; then gardens began to
appear; and at last we stood on the very limits
of the city, with a wide and smiling plain betore
us. The country gentleman breathed again.
‘Ha!’ he exclaimed, with a long and hearty ex
piration, ‘it is something to be free of that place
of tnrmoil and vanity and crime, and to breathe
again the fresh air of the country.’
‘To me,’ said the poet, gazing on the fair and
quiet scene before us, ‘it is sweet, but also, as
ever in lifetime, sad. It bas awakened in me
anew that infinite longing to know ail that is
beyond.’
‘Of course, of course,’ said the country gen
tleman, a little disconcerted. ‘That of coarse.
No doubt the sight of a scene like this, does
awaken in one - as you say—the infinite—upon
my word, this lo >ks like excellent soil.'
‘It is indeed very fine,’ said the apparitor. ‘It
is the part of Hades in which those spirits who
prefer an agricultural life ganerally select their
allotments.
‘What,’ said the country ^gentleman, attempt
ing, but without success, to disguise his agita
tion, ‘is this where the high farming you spoke
of, is carried on ?
■It is,’ replied the other. ‘See here and there. ’
And sure enough we fa v. on looking around,
that the landscape was portioned ont into allot
ments, each with its little farm and homestead
in its midst, the picture of rural ease aud plen
ty and content. The arable land blazed with
the yellowest cr>ps, the pasture land smiled
with unspeakable verdure, cattle of a sleekness
umUlalaabe lay earthly oil-cake lounged and
laid around. Mos singular ot all to behold,
each allotment had a weather of its own—one
lay bathed in sunshine, another drowned in
torrents ot descending rain, and sunshine suc
ceeded rain, and rain sunshine in evary allot
ment, at the mere wish of its proprietor. Under
the guidance of the apparitor, we approached
the farms for a closer inspection, and walked
around several of them, minutely examining
the crops. The proprietors stood each in the
midst of his allotment, gaz'ng a the sky with
an expression of the bitterest discontent. The
agricultural tout ensemble was perfect and it need
ed but a glance at our country friend to see how
profound an impression it was producing on his
mind.
‘Tue spot is convenient for the city, you see,’
sai-l the apparitor, slyly.
‘Yes,’ muttered the country gentleman, ‘one
likes a run there sometimes. It ia the very
thing,’ he coutinued, in lower tones, ‘the very
thing.’
We remained a long time gazing upon this
rural scene, Home of ns a li tie impatient to de
part, but all unwilling to rouse the country gen
tleman from the deep reverie into which he had
fallen. The M- C. had been wrapped in pro
found mnsings ever since he had quitted the
city, and had hardly vouchsafed a passing glance
at the sc-ne which was so absorbing his com
panions’ attention. At last the apparitor broke
silence.
•Come, gentlemen, 1 he said, ‘we mus) indeed
be going. We shall barely have time to return
to the Court and have your papers made ont be
fore it will be necessary for uh to set out on our
j mrney to the mysterious region for whioh we
are hound.’
These last words seemed to rouse the squire
with a start from his mnsings, and an almost
painful expression flitted across his features at
our guides last words, but with a heavy sigh he
turned away aud prepared to follow the rest cf
the party in our return journey.
The M. C. was first to speak.
‘Sir,’ he said, addressing the apparitor, with
the air of a man who, after a long hesitation has
at length resolved, ‘be so good as to inform their
lordships, when we reach the Hall of Justice,
that 1 have changed my mind as to the coarse
of iife I will adopt.’
‘Indeed,’said onr guide, with a polite aff-c-
tation of surprise; ‘may I ask what—?’
‘I desire my passport to be made out for the
city,’ said the M. C., shortly.
The poet looked at him with an exoression of
contemptuous surprise, which we all did our
best to imitate, though not without some mis
givings as to the appearanco wLiich our inmost
thoughts presented to the spectator.
‘I’ is vain, continued the M. C., candidly,
‘for me to attempt to do further violence to my
real nature and propensities. I ought to have
known throughout what I am now tff ctuaily
reminded of, that my only happiness lies in a
life of action, in the eager con tests cf public life,
in the attempt, however futile, to set matters a
little si' a gh*, legislatively speaking,iu that city
of confusion.’
There was a slight touch of arrogance in his
tone, as became the spirit of au advanced radi-
cil.but the. apparitor madeno comment upon it.
He merely bowed T ith a grave smile and said:
‘I will take care mat yonr change of plan is
represented to their lordships.’
‘Yes,’ resumed the M. C., ‘the repose of satis
fied inquiry,the fruition of complete knowledge,
which might be the heignt of happiness to oth
ers, would be only irksome to me—I feel that
my proper function ia whatever world I may
find myself, is to legislate.’
‘And mine,’ cried the country gentleman, em
boldened by his companion’s candor to a simi
lar confession, 'mine is to farm.’
‘What!’ exclaimed the apparitor, in a tone of
disappointment; ‘do von too depart from your
ideal? You, at least, I bad believed to be tru
ly interested in the problem of man a life, ’
‘SoI am,’cried theoonntry gentleman; ‘much I
so, no one more so, I am snre; bnt then,’ and |
his gaze wandered wistfully back to the fields
we had left, ‘to give np every thing to learn the
truth. The journey once made, you say, can
never be retraced. Suppose I should regret my
choice?' he continued, doubtfully. ‘I know I
shall never regret farming, I have tried that,
whereas I have never tried to solve the problem
of life—that is effectually. No, I wish you all
good speed on your journey, but for my part I
consider it folly to endanger my happiness for
all eternity by adopting a life for whioh I am
unfitted; and tbongh I own that I abandon with
rclncten ?e the prospect of solving the question
of Free Will, as to which I still feel convinced
that my view was the right, and the vicar s the
wrong one— yet, on the whole, I think I had bet
ter remain here and farm.’
The apparitor shrugged his shoulders.
‘So be it,’ he replied. ‘I will recommend yon
for the next allotment. Is there any other gen
tleman who has changed his mind ?’
We etole fnrtive glances at each other. The
poet, I could see, was firm, and his desire to
enter npou the life which he had seleoted, waa
strong as ever. The artist had no fancy for
either the life of tho oity .or for rural pursuits,
but I could read iu his mind a certain dissatis
faction with the prospect before him, and some
thing of regret that he had met with no opening
which offered any greater attractions. For my
own part I repudiated with sufficient firmness
the suggestion of abandoning my chosen oareer,
bnt as I uttered my disclaimer, 1 wondered
whether my companions could really read the
strange mixture of motives with which I did so.
But hy this time we had reachei our destina
tion, and the Palace of Jastice again rose before
onr view.

This is not a patent medicine, but is prepared
under the direction of Dr. M. W. Case, from his
favorite prescription, which in an extensive
practice of over 27 years, he has found most
effective in all cases of disordered liver or im
pure blood. It is
anti-bUjICOS.
It acts directly upon the liver, restoring it,
when diseased, to its normal condition, and in
regulating the activity of this great gland every
other organ of the system is benefited. In
Blood Diseases it has no equal as a purifier. It
Improves digestion and assists nature to elimi
nate all impurities from the system, and while
It is the cheapest medicine in the market it is
also superior to all known remedies. While it
jjs more effectual than Blue Mass,it is mild anil
perfectly safe, containing nothing that can in
the slightest degree injure the system. It does
not sicken or give pain, neither does it weaken
the patient nor leave the system constipated,
as most other medicines do.
