Amid the chapel's checkered *Ioona
ghe laughed with Dora and with flora,
And chattered is the lecture room—
She saucy little sophomore!
Yet while (as in her other echoole)
She waa a privileged transgressor,^
Bbe never broke the simple rules
Of one particulai'profeesor.

To her, that honest voice was sweet;
And, though her love had no confessor,
Her girlish heart lay at the feet
Of that particular professor.
And he learned, among his books
That held the lore of ages olden.
To watch those ever-changing MOU,
The wWfnl eyes and trewee golden,
That stirred his pulae with psasion s pain,
And filled his soul with soft desire, •
Longing for youth to come again,
Crowned with its coronet of fire.
Her sunny smilo, her winsome ways,
Were more to him than all his knowledge,
And she preferred his words of praise
To ail the honore of his college.
Yet “What am foolish I-to hirn i”
She whispered to her one confessor; .
“She thinks me old and gray mid grim,
Tn silence pondered the professor.
Yet once, when Christmas bells were rung
Above ten thousand solemn churches,
And swelling anthems, grandly sung,
Pealed through the dim cathedral
arches—
Ere home returning, filled with hope*
Softly she stole by gate and gable.
And a sweet spray of heliotrope
Left on hie littered study table.
Nor come the more from day today.
Like sunshine through the shadows nn
lag? .
Above her grave, far, far away,
The over-silent snowB were dm ting,
And those who mourned her winsome lace
Found in its stead a swift successor,
And loved another in it* place—
Ali, save the silent old professor.
But in the tender twilight gray,
Shut from the sight of carping critic,
His lonely tbonghts would often stray
From Nedic verse and tongue Semitic,
Bidding the ghost of perished hope
Mock with the past the sad possessor
Of the dead spray of heliotrope
That once she gave the old professor

Of the address of the Hon. A. O. Bacon
to the Odd Fellows of Augusta, Tuesday
night the Chronicle says: His address was
elegent, polished and graceful, and

handsomely received last nigbt.
Tin Hews refers to it as follows: This

recital, which was very interesting,
while his whole manner, his rounded pe
riods and well- placed episodes made the
address graceful, eloquent and well timed
He was Ustened to with pleasure and ad
miration, for, besides being one of the
finest public speakers in the State, Mr.
Bacon is one of the most striking person
ages iu Georgia. Distinguished in ap
pearance, his tall and well shaped

The Sumter Bepuolican In an article
on the public school system of Americus
Mys there is an attendance of seven hun
dred and sixty-five scholars upon the
schools, three l.undred and fifty-four
whites, and four hundred and eleven col
ored scholars. There are now on the
rolls of the schools forty-three pupils who
have become residents of the city since
the last census, and whose parents have
moved to the cwy for the benefit of the
school, and we doubt not that many more
will come M soon as residences are pro
cured. The expenses of carrying on the

Fbepahe for the shock, says theHawk-
iusville Dispatch. The farmers of North
Georgia “are buying Western mest at
twelve cents a pound and corn at $1.25
per bushel, payable out of tho proceeds of
their next crop. They are alsd out of
oaU and fodder, and are paying $2 per
hundred for Western hay. AJ1 of which
means a general crash, ending in bank
ruptcy and ruin. Farmers In this sec
tion of Georgia may be able to stand the
shock, because they are used to it, and
are preparing for a big cotton crop at a
low price, but North Georgia will ‘strike
the ceiling,’ sure."

The same paper states on tbe authority
“of a gentleman who ought to be ac
quainted with tbe details of tho situation,
that tbe Macon and Brunswick extension
will probably seek Social Circle Mits
Georgia railroad connection, and will not
come direct to Atlanta. The reason for
this is that the natural connection sought

The Nobtheasterx Railway-
How the Matteb Stands.—'The Athens
Banner, of Thursday, hM the following
on this matter: We publish to-day from
the Atlanta Constitution an article pur
porting to be a (tatement of the railroad
situation as regards Athena and tbe
Northeastern. The article is more
guess-work than fact. The stale of
the case is this: No contrsct has yet been
perfected. One was brought home by
Captain Carlton, and submitted to the
city council; but the second council was
not satisfied with some of the details, and
did not accept it. The general terms of
tbe contract are agreed on, and they are
substantially the same as tbe Richmond
and Danville proposed at first to the city
of Athens, aud which were published in
the Banner of April 12th. The following
are the general terms of the contract m
given then: 1st. The Richmond and Dan
ville, in consideration of tbe transfer to it
of tbe stock owned by the city of Ath
ens, guarantees* to extend the road to
Clarkeaville within two years, and to
Clayton within five years, or sooner, when
there is a reasonable probability of a rail
connection with Knoxville. 2d. It guar
antees satisfactory through rate* to and
from Athene, for all point# East and
West. 3d. It guarantee* to pay it* pro
portionate part of tbe expenses ef a onion
passenger depot in tbe city of Athens for
the Northeastern railroad and all other
reads that may run into tbe city. 4th. It
guarantee* proper interchange ot freight
and passenger traffic with any railroads
that mty ran into Athens, without die-
crimination. 6th. It forfeits its stock so
acquired woen its (allure to fulfil! these
conditions. Oth. It piovidee for a board
of arbitration for all disagreement* and a
speedy sod Anal decision from said
board. We are assured, by authority, that
tbe above general terms are ail that have
yet been agreed on, with tbe exception of
two points, vis: Tbe Northeastern ie to be
extended to ClarkervlU* by January 1,
1862, and to Tallolah Fails by July l,
1882. R. T. Wilson * Co., tbe owners ot
tbe Macon and Brunswick railroad, have
agreed, on certain conditions, to bring
tbelr road to Athens whenever tbe Rich
mond and Danville takes charge of tbe
Northeastern.
A Hobbiblh CriMe.—We find tbe fol
lowing in ilia last Gwinnett County Her
ald:
Some time since Wilburn • Harrison,
formerly of Gilmer county, married the
widow of Clive Anderson, and the family
have been living near the poor bouse In
this county. Last Sunday Anderson’s lit
tle girl reported to her mother that her
stepfather and Ills half brother, John Du-
fur, had committed rape od her. The
crime was committed several days before,
bntrthe child was afraid to Aisekwe iVana
did not tell he? until her condition led
1m r to suspect something -wrong.. Her.
mother immediately informed the child’s
uncles and they at once came to town aud
sued out warrants, charging Harrison and
the boy Duiur with the crime. Early
Tuesday morning Sheriff Patter
son, accompanied by D. L. Born, went ont
to make the arrest. They arrived at Har
rison’s bouse early in the morning, and the
boy discovered them and gave Uarrisqsi,
who wm in bed, notice of their approach.
He jumped up and ran off, barefooted and
bareheaded, just M tbe sheriff approached
the house. They saw him m he ran and
ordered him to halt, but this only in
creased his speed. The sheriff shot at him
twice and Born five times, but both missed
hitting him. They followed on, and came
near overtaking him at Herrington’# shop,
bat he had the start and made time like a
quarter horse. By this time a number of
the neighbors had joined in the pursuit,
but up to tills writing Harrison has not
been captured. The sheriff then returned
and arrested the boy and lodged him in
ail; He denies his guilt, but says that
ills brother is guilty of this terrible crime.
Jonx White, Esq., president of the
Athens National Bank, and of the Geor

Tbeathext of Ihmiobaxts IX THE
South.—We have received a communica
tion from Cochran complaining of the
treatment of certain German immigrants
who recently came to this State for settle
ment. Oar correspondent has been told
that when they landed at Castle Garden
they were met by a gentleman who told
them he wished to engage mechanics aud
apprentices of trades to go Georgia in the
employ of tbe Georgia Land and Lumber
Company, and that he pict’ired to them in
such glowing terms tbe great advantages
they would enjoy if they accepted the
proposition, that a number of them were
induced to do so. On the trip
to this city they were treated
with every courtesy and kindness, audflat-
tered themselves that they had entered
upon a lucky enterprise. When they ar
rived at McRae, however, they were driv
en about fifteen miles in the woods, and
e put in uncomfortable shanties,
which, U It WM raining L*«'u, I e,k ? d ter *
ribly. In this condition they y^rd left
for lwo Jays friluont seeing any one, and,
finally, they were each told to pick out a
piece of land of fifty acres, clear and cul
tivate it, with the view of eventually pur-
ebasingit; but as they had no farming
Implements,mules nor money, and besides
knew nothing of farming, they could not
do this, and so they decided to leave Mc
Rae and that section in disgust, and en
deavor to reach some city where they
could work attheir trades. They claim
that the contract they entered into in
New York was never carried out, and
that, in a word, they were completely vic
tim bred.
The house of Mr. A. J. Tomlinson,
seven miles from Cedartown, was burned
last Thursday night, with most of the fur

The Americus Reporter reports the

tezuma move np on the Air-Line road?
The Cumberland Route. — The
Brunswick Appeal says: We learn from
the “powers that be” that the above route
will be discontinued after the first of May,
and tbe tide of travel southward by tbe
Macon and Brunswick railroad turned
over to tbe Savannah, Florida and Wes
tern railroad to Waycross and thence to
Jacksonville over the new road. This
seems to ns to be bad faith on the
part of tbe railroad authorities
toward the State m well m our own peo
ple; at least, it is not the carrying out of
what wm intended in tbe sale of tbe Ma
con and Brunswick Railroad,
The Cedartown Advertiser hM tbe
following: On last Tuesday Mr. M. J.
Yelvinhlreda team with which to haul
wood to that place. He did not return
m foon m wm expected, and search wm
inside for him, which ieeulted in finding
him about two miles from town lying
helpless on tbe ground and badly injured.
He wm able to tell his story which wm,
that he had loaded up his wood end
mounted tbe wagon to return. He started
down a bill and the woodbeiog damp and
slippery, from the Jolting began to slip
down upon the mules which caused them
to ran, and he wm thrown forward, fall
ing under their heels. The frtmt and
rear wheel on one side of the wagon
passed over his body near the hipe. This
happened about nine o'clock in the fore
noon, and he had lain helpless and suffer
ing until found at tbe boor above stated.
Tm males were f ound about 150 yardsfrom
where Mr. Velvin lay and had been stop
ped by tbe wagon striking a large sapling.
One of tbe males wm considerably In
jured. Mr. Mile* remained with Mr. Vel
vin while Mr. White came for a carriage to
convey him home.
We learn from the Rome Courier that
on Thursday morning “Tom Morrison of
Chattooga county, together with several
other countrymen, were in Wardlaw *
Jones’ wagon yard; Williams, negro, wm
also in tbe yard, and Morrison accosted
him in regard to some tacks of flour that
it appears the negro had permitted his
horse to mutilate. From words tbe two
men got to blows, and a few momenta had
only elapsed when the negro drew a large
pocket-knife, or dirk, and cut Morrison in
tbe side, in the region of the heart. The
deed was scarcely accomplished, when he
fled and since has not been heard of.”
The doctors pronounce Morrison in a
critical condition, though he may ulti
mately recover..

Yesterday a Telegraph reporter made a

WATZBVUXE,
Waterville, as it is now called, or Tuft’S
Springs, the reporter found about two
miles from the Court House an the Macon

foot of the large hills which guard the
(southern entrance of tbe city, are the
springs, some six or seven in number, tbo
waters bubbling up through the sand as
they have for the last half century at least,
and flowing away in a bold stream into the
swamp near at hand.

tuecoui
Perry, April 2d.—Memorial day wm
the occasion of a large assemblage at our
beautiful Evergreen Cemetery. Rev. B. elites,
U. Sashett^ the orator," made' a beautiful OueUay not Tong ago a reporter, while
Changes have token place however in the
last year, destined to work material bene,
fits in Macon clustering about
the iron bands whioh lead northwest
from the spot. The springs have been en
closed in wells of masonry five or six feet
deep and their united yield conveyed into a
reservoir some fifteen feet in diameter,
and as many deep. The reporter inserted
his inquisitive eye through the open door
way of the neat bnilding which straddles the
poo], and saw down beneath him a
pellucid depth inviting a plunge.
Resisting an inclination to accept, he
prooeeded to place upon the reportorial
rack Mr. W. T. Johnson, the energetic and
gentlemanly boss of the premises. From
his victim he learned that the flow of the
stream was between 750,000 to 1,000,000 gal
lons of water rer day, an ample supply for
the system which has been planned for
Macon; and that from springs not yet util
ized there was a prospect of an increase of
this amount. From the cistern or reser
voir there led to a large, new, and elegantly
fitted up building forty yards distant, a ten
inch main, through which the monster en
gine was to suck the cooling draughts and
send them throbbing among the arteries
which net the city.
Passing into this bnilding, the reporter
came face to face with the powerful double
engine, which lay asleep, as though to gain
strength for ita long years of labor. Ad
joining it in tho next room were the pomps,
immense cylinders, capable of lifting two
million gallons of water per day. The re
maining room, which still echoes the ham
mer stroke, is intended for the office and
headquarters. Everything was found to be
in apple-pie order, and nearly ready for
work. The perfected arrangements are
monuments to the skill and labor of Mr.
W. F. Johnston, th:- best self-taught me
chanic and engineer in the country.
Adjoining this bnilding the reporter
found the ice works overhauled and ready
for its annual imitation of nature.
New machinery has been put into the bnild
ing, and instead of the twenty pound slabs
slabs weighing one hundred and thirty
pounds will be as readily produced. Work
ers were busy completing thenewarrange-
menU..This division is also in charge of Mr.
Johnston, who bnilt the boase, pat in the
machinery and run tho works last summer.
RESERVOIR.
Springing into the elegant side-bar
buggy, which tho Telegraph and Messen-
fornishes to each of its reporters, and
ordering the four burly negro*, who wore
being dragged round in a circle by U-
patient eteeds, to “cast off,” the reporter
sped away toward the city, and the grand
reservoir, leaving the Brunswick express
train far in the rear.
Upon the crest of the large hill which
overlooks Macon from the south, tho re
porter found about one hundred fifty la
borers hollowing out tbe earth to roceivo
the water. A theodolite leveled upon tho
hill, cast its cross just about the court house
clock, showing that the fall was ample to
supply the highest house on the lower city
level. Tho reservoir, now nearly dug out,
is to be thirty feet deep, two hundred long
and eighty seven wide. Its walls aro to bo
ran up eight feel abovo the level, and its
capacity will be about two and a quarter
million of gallons.
The main which is to supply tho reservoir
oomes from the twelve-inch main in tho
street adjoining it. Thus no water will
flow into the reservoir until the whole city
system is fail. The workmen are making
rapid progress, and it is hoped that Jane
1st will see water in tho pipes. Altogether
the improvements are interesting and wcll
worth a visit from those who have an hour
or so of spare time.
WHEN COMPLETED.
When completed tho city, the Hill ex-
.oepted, will have a full supply of water at
hand. The engines will find fire plugs in
place of shallow cisterns, public buildings
will be tapped, streets watered, and foan
tains will play in front yards, and send tho
spray far np among tho trees of tho park.
Macon awaits with impationce the stroke

Te tbe Farmer* oi Georgia.
At this season you will, doubtless, find it
profitable to employ additional laborers.
1 am enabled to stato that, if farmers in
this State will employ a sufficient number
of white laborers to give them some com
panionship to which they have been ac
customed, and will board and lodge them,
giving good wages, it is probable that as
many as may be needed can be supplied.
A charge of five dollars per head will be re*
quired in order to pay expenses. Female
domestics are not included. If the labor,
era are not delivered at tbe place agreed
upon, the money will be refunded, less one
dollar registration fee to pay for corre
spondence and posingo. It is hoped and
believed that the public will appreciate the
difficulties attending my position, and real
ize that the undertaking is far f rem pleas-
ont, exceedingly laborious, and an experi
ment at best. It has snoceeded in the West,
onp ought to succeed here.
If successful, several thousand ean be
furnished; if unsuccessful, it will be diffi
cult to inaugurate so comprehensive a
scheme again. It is very important that
good wheat broad be supplied them
for they know nothing of oom bread and
will not take kindly to it. It is essential
that good diet and lodging be provided un
til they can learn our language nnd can
provide for themselves. A few month*
will accomplish this, and after that it is
confidently believed they will either buy
land or work for the same wages now paid
to excellent negro laborers. Sly agents in
Europe, together with the facilities de
scribed in the following telegram, will in
sure success if the effort is sustained by the
people. It is proper to stato that I have
been in correspondence with Colonel Fope
and other railway and steamship managers
for jom* time.

As a few among the many things that
wq have established beyond question, may
be mentioned: 1. That the moth produc
ing tbe cotton worm hibernates in tbis
country, anil therefore does not come to
us every year from the tropics, as has
been maintained by many investigators of
the past. 2. That the firet cotton worms
appear in small numbers much earlier
than Las hitherto, or is usually supposed,
and generally in the same particular spots
year after year, in hibernating centres or
regions where the parent n.ctb survives
the winter. 3. That these first worms ap
pear nrach earlier than the so-called “first
crop” which attracts the attention of the
planter, and may be looked for early in
May, or even by tbe middle of April.
While young their presence is most readi
ly detected by the pale, translucent spots
they make ou tlie leaves, which spots are
a sure indication that the worm is present
or that it has'been, for these early worms
are frequently swept off by their enemies.
3. That the eggs in early summer are laid
on the underside of tho leaves, and very
uniformly on the older leaves about the
middle or lower third of the main stem,
and the young worms feed there for a few
days, producing the spots above described,
before ascending to the niore tender
leaves. 5. That the present moths, while
fond of all sorts ef sweet exudations and
ripe fruits, obtain their chief nourishment
in early summer from the glands of the
underside of these leaves and on the in
volucre. They suck up solid particles, and
may be killed by poisoning the
sweets they feed on. 6. That the
eggs of the boll worm are also mostly
laid in similar situations, and rarely
on tbe square of tbe bolls, and the youug
boll worms likewise feed upon the leaves
for some days before entering the squares
of the bolls, and, therefore, may be de
stroyed by poisons as readily as the cotton
worm. 7. That the cotton worm may be
effectually killed by seasonable applica
tion of poisons. 8. That the cost of these
poisons need not exceed 1£ cents per acre
of cotton; exclusive of the cost of applica
tion, ot coarse, which need not be heavy.
9. That the rot ot the boll, so common in
many seasons, is produced by the boll
worm; ana 10, that it may be prevented
by an application of poisons to the boils
by simply sprinkling; or, in other words,
that the poison which destroys the cotton
worm also prevents the rot.
Fort Valley, April 28.—'This morn- i
lng, m the passenger train to Columbus
The Keelejr Kotor
Is coming to the front again. Recently it
has been examined anew by a good many
of tlie most eminent experts in mechan
ism to be found in the whole country,
and evidently they have been confounded
with the possibilities it opens of a concen
trated mechanical energy requiring little
weight and space, put possessing bound
less power. Tho Brooklyn Eagle says:
The ”rino“;le rpon which Mr. Keeley
operates Is not, perhaps, a new one. He
deals with the expansibility of water.
Under one set of conditions, namely, tho
application ot heat, water is expanded
into steam. Under another, by mcaus of
the electric current, it can be expauded by
decomposition into oxygen and hydrogen.
If we understand the Keeley principle, it
is the expansion of water by liberation of
its ultimate atoms, aud this is accom
plished by vibration. There is nothing
improbable in all tbis. It is thoroughly
scientific. When one considers the force
of the explosion which accompanies the
combination of the compoteut
gases necessary to make a drop of
water by passing an electric spark through
them, one can form an idea of the
immense dynamic energy that a cupful
represents. A pebble whose molecules
adhere measures the tremendous energies
that hold them together. They are lat
ent in the pebble or in the drop of water
until the key is found to liberate them.
It may be chemical or it may be me
chanical. The laws of nature are being
gradually formulated into vibration.
Light and sound have been so formulated
aud the telephone, phonograph and still
later the photophone, which transforms
light into souud, indicate that in the
recognition of the vibratory principle
science has found one of the secrets of the
universe. Applied together with tlie
atomic conception of matter, and two
sides, at least, of the triangle of nature
seem to be given. That every dollar in
vested in the Keely motor should yield a
million to the stockholder would no more
and no less astonish the thoughtful than
that the would material world should, by
development of these principles, be made
actually obedient to man.

PICTURES.
IX
Hew Form* of “Spirttaai Isallssls-
Hobs’'—Ficlara Palsied on Slate*
and Garda.
Mew York Trilunt.
Tlie latest phase of “spiritual phenome
na” iu tbis city, and one which makes
some stir among the believers, is tbe pro
duction of crayon and water-color pictures
on slates or on cards inclosed between
chatting with a physician in bis office up-
drawing of St. Peter upon it—tbe name
being written under the picture in old
English text and a Bible quotation above
it. The Doctor asserted that Uila had
been produced while he held the slate on
top of bis head with no otherperson with
in ten feet of him. He also exhibited a
well executed water-color sketch of a Jew
ish face, with remarkably fine eyes, paint
ed on one of Scbaus’ cards. This, be said,
was made in ten minutes, when the card
wm shut in between a double siate and
tbe siate lying in a chair at a distance of
six feet from the nearest person present.
Tlie picture is called St. John the Bap
tist. The paint wm not yet quite dry
upon it.
Eager to see this marvellous process of
picture-making, tbe reporter got ~the
address of the medium, on the promise
that it should not be printed, as her hus
band was strongly opposed to her practic
ing her mysterious art. A sitting was
arranged after considerable pressure had
been brought to bear upon ‘the husband.
No one wm present in tbe room where
the sitting took place but the lady and the
reporter, but the husband ana two ac
quaintances of tbe family were in the next
room waiting the result of tbe perform
ance.
The medium produced a common
hinged double slate. On the table was a
number of small thick cards such as are
used for small water-color sketches. One
of these was selected and put inside the
slate, and the slate held by the reporter,
but there was no result. Then the card
wm removed and the slate wm held suc
cessively by tbe medium, by the reporter,
and by both; but still there wm no result.
The medium went into the next room to
speak to her child and tlie reporter took
advantage of her absence t* write his ini
tials in pencil on tlie lrame of the slat.*,
suspecting an attempt to change it for one
prepared in advance. Tbe slate wm
rubbed and magnetized by the medium,
but to no purpose. The supernatural
artist refused to work. Conversation was
kept up continually, the medium relating
a variety of astonishing experiences, cal
culated to stimulate the credulity of a
superstitious person, which only served,
however, to increase the skepticism of tbe
reporter. An hour was spent in this way
when there came a rap at the door. The me
dium said she did not want to rise aud break
the condition, and asked the reporter to
go into the front room and tell the little
girl to admit the 7isitor by tbe door lead
ing to that apartment. Now, he thought,
is the time for changing the slates, but on
returning, he failed to discover that auy
change had beeu made. The marks ou
the slate were still there. The sitting
lasted half an hour longer without
result,' and the reporter, gutting tired of
the monotony of the thing, putou hisover-
co t and was about takiug his leave,
when the lady said: “Let’s try a little
longer.” She then opened tbe slates and
began to rub them vigorously with her
bauds, afterward using a moist handker
chief to continue the process. In tlie
course of the operation tho reporter’s ini
tials entirely disappeared from the frame.
She closed tbe states, which the visitor
had never once removed his eyes iroui,
and rising held them on his head, he also
holding on to them with one baud. After
a few minutes she took her seat again,
drew her chair forward and held one end
ot the closed slate in her left hand, the
reporter keeping hold of the other with
his right. Immediately a clicking sound
wm heard on the slate, somewhat like
the uoise made by a tekgt »i»u instrument.
This continued for perhaps five minutes.
Then there were three sharp raps, and the
ined’am said the work was finished. The
reporter opened tbe slates, and upon the
lower one was a neat little portrait dono
iu water colors. It was the face of a
prominent journalist, now dead, whom
the reporter bad known very well. The
dimensions of tlie portrait are three inches
by two. The eyes are remarkably life
like, aud bear well the test of a magnify
ing glass In daylight.
On examining the frame of the slate
the reporter could find no trace of his ini
tials. There was, however, a spot that
looked as if it bad been rubbed very hard,
in tbe place where he had written them.
The disappearance of the initials destroy
ed the value of his experiment, in his
opinion. He thought lie identified sun
dry flaws and marks on the frame, but he
could not swear that the slate was the
same tho experiment had been begun
with. In the so-called spiritual tnati'fes-
taiions there is usually some such break
as this m the chain of evidence. The test
is not absolute. People believe who want
to believe, and people who doubt can find
an explanation of the phenomena with
out appealiug to tbe heavenly powers. In
tho case of this picture-making the be
lievers will see in it a new and beautiful
evidence of the truth of their faith, but
skeptical folks will look upon it as only a
very clever and interesting piece of thau-
maturgy. Tbe performance cost the spec
tator, nothing, it is fair to add, and he is
in possession of a neat picture which will
make a nice mantel ornament, and which,
if it had no ghostly origin, must have cost
somebody a good deal of time to paiut for
no other purpose than to practice tbe com
mon sleight-of-hand trickof changing two
objects before tlie eyes of an observer
without being detected.
RESULTS OF A SECOND EXPERIMENT.
A week later the experiment described
above was repeated. There were present \
the medium, her husband, a lady friend, j
the physician who had called tbs repot- '
tei’s attention to the performance, and tlie '
reporter. A small siugle slate was first '
used. It wa3 bound with red cloth aud
was of the sort used In offices, the cloth
preventing the scratching of doles. The
slate, after a good deal of rubbing by the ‘
medium, for tho purpose of magnetizing |
it, was given first to the doctor, who hold :
it on his head with no result. Tbe rnedi- j
ugi said she was standing in a corner ot ,
tbe room a man who seemed to belong to I
some former century very long ago, aud i
tbat there were flames around his feet
presently mounting up to his breast. No '
one else saw any apparition. The slate ,
wm then given to the reporter, who held
it on his head with one hand, tlie medium '
going to a corner of tbe parlor and point- J
iug an outstretched hand at it. She ap
peared to be iu a state of high nervous
excitement, exclaiming: “In the name of:
God now let it be douo“I see h suds !
upon tbe slate!” “Doctor, is there any- |
body behind him?” “Now they are ’
working!” “Ah, tbat is beautiful.” As
for the reporter bis state of mind wm j
that of a half trance. He saw tbe per- j
sons in the room distinctly, but his brain ;
had a queer swaying, floating feeling, md •
the state seemed to weigh at least ten
pounds. “Take it down slowly,” said the :
medium, at tbe expiration of perhaps five j
minutes, “it is finished.” The repoiter,
lowered the state. Ou its upper surface j
was a picture of a man wicb a long beard,
wearing a monk’s cowi and having a cross ]
on his breast—very well drawn. Above .
and below were these words, the letters
curiously drawn in triple lines with chalk
crayon—“Through fire I come. Cyril.”
After a half hour’s talk tbe doctor ard
tbe husband of the medium withdrew,
aud an experiment wm prepared with a
satin-covered tablet which tbe medium
said ahe had brought “ under impres
sion,” and she believed sbe wonid have a
portrait of Stephen A. Douglas* painted
on it. Tlie dimensions of the tablet were
about four inches by twelve, tbe face be-
ing of white satin and tbe back of black
leather. On tbo back wm a large blotch
where tbe leather had been scratched.
This the reporter enlarged with his finger
nail, to make a mark that would serve for
identification. The hypnotic condition of
flow v e 7 «P»ed the medium.
After holding the tablet a long ti me i,.
her hands with the satin face i„ view
tbe lady gave it to the repomtr and asked
him to hold it in his hand. He did so the
lady sitting down on the sofa some dis
tance away. Again there was the pecul
iar, dreamy feeling, but not so marked.
Perhaps ton minutes elapsed during whicli
tho medium twice rose and looked at the
top of tlie tablet, saying once, “1 see hands
working," aud the other time, “tlie colors
are not on yet.” Then she auuouuced
that it was done. On the wliitesaUn sur
face was a beautiful little picture of the
angel at lTie‘sepulchre, surrounded with a
wreath of leaves and flowers. Under the
picture was tbe legend, “He is risen.” It
was Easter Sunday.
CONSTIPATION.
Hall’s Journal of health thinks it is
doubtful if consumption numbers as many
victims as are stricken down by tbe various
diseases that result from habitant constipa
tion. When effete matter is retained a mo
ment beyond the time its expulsion is do-
mantled, the system commences its efforts
to get rid of it. When the natural egress is
checked, the absorbents carry the mors
fluid portions of the poisonous mass into
the circulation, and it becomes diffused
throughout the body. The more solid or
claylike portions are forced into the lower
rectum, where it becomes firmly imparted
thus cutting off the circulation iu the smut,
blood vessels, causing painful indorse
ments known as piles and hemorrhoids. A
continuance of these troubles often result*
in fissuro, fistula, or cancer. The trouble
is seldom confined here. As a result of the
blood poisoning we almost invariably find
more or loss dyspepsia, with decided de
rangement of the functions of tho heart,
liver, and kidneys, accompanied by head
ache and nervous debility, often verging on
paralysis.
No remedy has ever beeu offered to tho
public which carries with it so many high
endorsements for the care of
