SPIRITUALISM.

THEN AND NOW. <J KI-"O L"X-0 U55 persons, who are ready to receive with ooen arms any mountebank and travelling co ~iur<jr laujj^,claim tosupematuial influences, would do-' { occasionally to peruse a chapter from the r ,in qrder to learn, by the light of experien -jiow progressive enlightenment, and persbtenifmvestigation have swept away into the universal rdbbish heap of exploded non sense, things which at one peiiod here regarded ■y-i miraculous and indubitably super natural. We find many instances of this in a work in " Modern Spiritualism," by Emma Hardinge, formerly an itinerant actress, and woman's rights advocate, but latterly a <( medium" of the first water No one now a

davi attributes the Davenport tricks to any thm' r else than a certain degree of cleverness in writing out of a knot; and Messrs. Hurst, and Hes'Teth have demonstrated exactly where that cleverness stops short and breaks down utterly. But time was, not so long ago, -when the Davenport wriggles and Mr. i'"ay's coat trick, were to the Spiritualists of America as signs from Ileiven. We merely quote the following extracts from Emma Hardinge's book, which, by the way, is a mere paste, and scissors nclnwffc from Spiritist newspapers, connected here and there by a few lines of original writing : — " It was in the city of Buffalo that the Daven port Brothers first became the wonder and astonishment of their time. Those who have only witnessed their cabinet performances in the midst of a heterogeneous and often bitterly antagonistic mob, cannot form the slightest conception of the marvellous character of the phenomena which first startled the simple and unsophisticated parents of the two young lads, before cither of them had reached his fourteenth year. Besides the heavy poundings and violent disturbances of the furniture which ordinarily occur with what is called " physical force mediums," spectral figures were frequently seen by the whole family, whilst voices were heard giving them instruction, advice, and encouragement." * * *

"Another striking phenomenon of tha young Davenports' mediumship was the firing of pistols, rifles, etc., in the dark, against a mark, which, however minute, was always hit with marvellous precision. Very frequently the dash of the piece would disclose apparitions guiding or receiving the bullets, and monstrous arms and hands were contnntly seen Hashing through the darkness, or even in an obscure light, by members of the family, under the most startling circumstance;. At times the children would be lifted up several feet in the air, and kept suspended there for one or two minutes. The manifestations accompanied them everywhere—in the streets or stores ; at their play or in bed, and were always of the wildest and most preternatural character. As a more extended notice of these wonderful mediums will be given elsewhere, we shall only further acid that their residence, like that of Miss Bnfoks, was continually thronged by eager and astounded witnesses." * *■ *

is," As the city where the Davenport Brothers, Cora Scott, Miss Brooks, and other distinguished, media resided and first manifested their marvel lous power, Buffalo became quite early cele brated in the sprxtual movement." * * * "A most brilliant example of this system of quashing the evidence, \v]ll be found in the following case : A certain London journal published the statement that " Fay, the noto rious confederate of the Davenport Brothers," had publicly proclaimed himself an impostor, and declared that all the manifestations which he and others had imposed upon the world were the work of deception and confederacy. The writer of the London journal then went on to declare that as the said Fay had exposed himself and his confederates, the exposure of these impostors necessarily involved the entire demolition of " the gigantic humbug, Spiritual ism.'" This paragraph was repeated, with variations, in nearly every respectable period ical in Great Britain. When it finally reached the eye of Messrs Davenport and party, then travelling in England, Mr William Fay, their associate, wrote out a succinct statement to the effect that the confession of imposture alluded to was made by one Henry Melville Fay, of New York, a personage not even distantly related to the writer, who was still a strong Spiritualist, a spirit medium, raid no impostor. To the journals that had given circulation to the calumny on himself and the Davenports, Mr William Fay sent this plain explanatory statement; and if the reader is at any loss to discover how many of the English journalists were honest and manly enough to make some effort to do justice and contradict the injurious falsehood they had put into irretrievable circulation, we will save him the (rouble of guessing by giving the sum total in these two words— not one." * * *

In another part of the book is given an account of the wonderful coat feat of Mr. Fay, which is, of course, attributed to spirit agency. It is note-worthy that Mr. Fay has since, on innumerable occasions, indeed at every public performance, stated distinctly that all the mysterious feats were simply tricks of the con juror, and in no way supernatural; and Maskelyne and Cook, the famous illusionists, are now delighting audiences by performing the very feats related with so much awful gusto by Mrs. liardinge.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND COM PLICATIONS.

DUNEDIN, this day.

Itatlier a large robbery of money in a boarding house at Oamara is giving rise to other proceedings and complications. Craig and wife, and a man named Madden, arc all under remand, charged with being con cerned in a robbery, and one Alice Peternell who is an important witness in the pro secution ' against the Craigs, charged with having committed perjury, in which she claimed wages from the Craigs. She then swore that" the signature to i\w receipt put in by the Craigs was not hers. Ihe Craig's swear with equal pertinancity that Peternell signed the documents. The Bench committed the woman for trial at the District Court, and refused application of her counsel to remit the case to the Supreme Court,saying they had no reason to suppose she would not get justice from an Oamara j iry.

W vitekauki G.M.C.—On paying this mine a visit yesterday, I found good progress had been made with the progressive works at the low level The drive yoing south is about 109 feet

footwall leadorTwluehis^OuieJooa^o^rone folly four f«et thick, carrying fair gold. The main body.of stone has not been broken into for j some distance, but wlisrovor exp'sC'J, sbaws j good stone. Going north tho drive is nearly j opposile to No. 2 winze, there being about .'5 feet ■ between drive winze, and the gr>~-;utvr portion of . this is good payable dirt. At the face of the drive some splendid stone is to be seen, and the manager informs me that since mv visit some good stone has come to hand. The reef appears ; to improve in size and richness, going north. Qukkx G.M.C.—Gordon and party are making fair headway with low level for the last few feet. I A portion of the reef has been gone through on one side of the drive, and the stone looks remark ably well, and I have no doubt it would pay well for crushing. But better things are expected ! when the tunnel get* further into the hill, 1 where the country will be of a more solid forma tion than at present. ! AUCKLAND G.M.U.—A contract for driving in j this company's ground 13 to be let this week, and ' as there will be no difficulty in picking up the Waitekauri champion lode, we may expect to hear of a new discovery of gold at this end of tho lead before long. The wetand stormy weatherexperier.ced here I latolr has been sadly against progress being i made with the tramway extension, but if the j wesither holds fine for a few weeks, a ! gooil show will be made, as there are ; a large number of hands employed. The ; contractors for the first throe sections have . nearly completed their contracis, and as most of I the material is ready, it wont take long to lay i tlio permanent road past the Comstock and . Young Colonial Company's ground, and by the ! time that is finished, the portion round to the ! Welcome snd Young New Zealand will also ■ be ready. j
