Uoolii'ge, a young phyel oia of excellent' standing in the city of Augusta, Maine, murdered Edward Math ews, a rich cattle-drover, bv enticing him alore into his office to take a drink of brandy, winch he had mired with prus. sic acid, and then, to -make sure work of the man. be beat him on the head with a ha'cb et until life was extinct The body was discovered, and Oool idge wai arrfstedou suspicion, and, after a long and exciting trial, he was convicted and sen-it-n ed to a year's solitary con finement and then to be hong. During hia cbntfnement his lister, a young and beautiful tfirl. was permitted tfJ visit him but his health gradually gave way. and before the year "xpired his death was sn nounred; he was buried, and for the time forgotten. The wnrden of the prison resigned hi position, married Ihe ynong ladv above" referred to, and moved ta parts unknown. Not long after thtf; Excitement opened in California, a eentle mn who was conversant with the CA86, nt who had follow . . 17 ed others to the gold regions. sent baek his depositing that he hd een arid conversed with V.

Aston ' out UieM withio a few,yv Getting Rid of the Spirits. spiritualism first made its appearanco In the village of ,old Deacon Isaacs, a wealthy man, who had stood by the church for nearly three score, years, was exceedingly bitter against all believers In the -devil's work," as he called it, and denounced spiritualism in no very gentle language Imagine the Deacon's ' anger, then, when six months after ward he found it had worked its way into his bVn family, and not only were his wife and daughters believer, but one of them was a medium, and pos sessed lull power to, converse with the SDirits of those who had departed to that "bourne from which no traveler returns. Deacon Isaacs was mad- dreadfully mad but he bad wit enough not to show it, and he bore the taunts of the un godly with a meek spirit. He knew it would be useless to de clare open war, for Mrs. Isaacs alone had always proved hi ore than a match for him, and he was sure to be defeated. Be must "circument the critter," as he expressed it, and to that end he sat himselt to work. tie was a roan ot sound judg ment, and his worldly experi ence ot titty years was not thrown away. From the day it first came to his knowledgn that his wife and daughters were spiritualists, he never spoke a word against nor did he ever allude td it, except in general terms in. bis morning prayers; but any one could see hat it troubled him, lor be was absent minded, his eyes wan dered restlessly, and his coun tenance looked care Worn. The Deacon witnessed one I IS 'I or two ''sittings" at his house and was satisfied that it he possoRsed a little more knowl- ed he could get rid df the ail noyance. So one morning he atarted tor the city, determin. ed to thoroughly investigate the subject before he returned. Alter visiting one or two of ihe most popular mediums, and paying hia money, he returned home satisfied that he could ''see through it." There was a "sitting" at the Deacon's house on the night he returned, and his daughter Ma ry the medium Invited the Deacon to take a seat at the table, 'which;' to her gratifica tion was accepted The spirits were in good tutie, and so ex ceedingly communicative that the Deacon wis induced to ask a lew questions, which were readily answered, and wife and daughters were in extacies at the thought, that father would vet be i believe, and urged the Deal'fJn-on in his Inquirers. ulJaarny, wife aiwjlys been true to her marriage .tows!" 4ked th Dertcon.

Nor If shouted Mary. uNor li" added Sarah; "Then," said the Deacon, while a smile lllumidated iiis countenance, we will bid them good bye, and .Have those things which God has wisely hidden from us to be revealed in His time." ( The Deacon's Evening devo UonS were characterized with more earnestness than usual, and the family. retired fully satisfied that the' spirits and mediums did not always reveal the truth; Mrs. Isaacs was so glad that none of the neighbors were present; but somehow the sto ry got wind, and so tearful were the spirit dames of N that IhSy might be caught in the same trap which the Dea ooti had set, that spiritualism was driven entirely from the village. ' An Instructive Exeperiment. The principles iu the circu lalion of the waters of the sea were beautilully shown before Iho Royal geographical society, recently, by a eimple expert meet. A trough with plate glass sides, about six teet lonp and a foot deep, but riot more than an inch wide, was filled with water. At one end a piece1 was wedged in between the sides to represent the polar cold, while the tropic heat wai represented at the other end b a bar of metal laid across the Burtace of the water, the pro jecting end of which was Seat ed by a spirit lamp. Red col onng matter was then put in at the warm end, and the blue at the cold end, so' that the cur rents could could be traced. The blue water, chilled by contact with the ice, immedi ately fell down to the bottom crept slowly along, and grad ually rose toward the surface ol the equatorial etJ, aftef which it gradually returned along i lie surface to the starting point. The red water crept first along the surface td the polar' end, then fell to the bottom just as the blue had done, tlnd formed another stratufai, creeping back again along a bottom arid com ing to the sutfat'e. E-tch color made a distinct circulation dur ing the half hour in which the audience viewed Jhe experi men! it PeboIMMon cuffe is, much preferred lb' the burned bean variety in ueorgia.
