Given under nv Imml and seal lb of said board, this 23d day of .. jtoveinocr, 1814. WM. H. BOLTON, Clerk. By E. K. Btaffokp, D.C. From the Sew York Tribune. Dr. AVilliam A. Hammond and several other scientists attended several of J. R. Browu's seances, as he called them, while he wa,s iu this city. Mr. Brown said that he could , not operate through Dr. Hammond, but could uot give any reason for failing to do so. With other gentlemen Mr. Brown per formed various experiments. One Of the gentlemen hid his door-key under a mat in tho hall. Brown, bliudfoldod, took oue of the gen- tlemau's bands in his, aud touched the other, which was held against his forehead. Brown then charg ed the gentleman to think of no thing but the place where the ob ject was hidden. He then led the gentleman about tho room and in to the hall. When they reached the mat Brown stopped and said : " Here It is." He had also a string of large letters of the alphabet hung across the room, and upon this he spelled out a word tho't of by some gentleman. This was of ten done correctly, though Mr, Brown was securely blindfolded all the time. Dr. Hammond explains tho pro cess by the theory that tho person opcratod upon, thinking intensely npon the subject, gives some sign, involuntary, perhaps, when the plnco is reached, or the object at tained that is boing sought. Mr. Brown, by long practice, probably perceives au indication that an other might uot notice. Dr. Ham mond said that after a little prac tice ho had been able to perform some of Browu's experiments with complete success. In one experi ment Dr. Hammond wrote down a list of names and told a person to think of one of them. He then placed his fingers upon the per son's wrist and said: "Now I will tell you the name of the person you are thinking of. Read over the list and when you reach the right name I shall know by your pulse which it is." . Tho person then began and read down the list and each time when the name thought of was reached, by some means it would bo plainly indica ted, to the great astonishment of the person experimented upon "The whole thing Is explained to me," added Dr. Hammond, "by tho influence of the mind over the body. Tho majority of persons thinking steadily upon ono sub ject do not fail to give evidence when the subject is reached which that person has been expecting. The reason why Mr. Brown could jot operate upon mo was, I would not allow myself to give the slight est Indication that would enable him to detect my thoughts found this a very difficult thing to do ; and, after I had tried it, I did riot wonder that many were un able to exercise this control. think that when this theory of ex ternal indication of a thought sud denly touched upon i followed up further, It will explain the whole mystery of Mr. Brown's mind reading." The Little Rock Republican soys: The portrait of Lincoln no longer adorns the Senate chamber of Ar kansas. The Bourbons, In their charity (?) still tolerate those of Washington and Grant. And the Little Rock Gazette soys: The portrait of the deceased President will be re-instated lu its accustom ed place to-day. It was stolen by a colored Republican in the Interim between the adjournment of the Constitutional Convention and the assembling of the present General Assembly, with a view of creatine the Impression that It was removed en account of prejudice. Secretary Newton forroited out the thief and recovered the portrait. Precisely thirty years ago the New York Demoernts elected their last Senator. Uddlv enough, too, the man was John A. Dix.

We came suddenly upon a young man and woman who was strolling leasure'y along, arm In arm, In the same direction we were pursuing. How romantic I" said Senator Scburs, soto voice. "Two young lovers I" said Mr. Leflet, himself a bachelor of the old school. "Runaway couple, I'll be bound!" said Major Gentry . "Hullo, young man, bow far is It to the village?" "Don't know," said the young man. "Stranger here ?" aaid the Major. "Ya-as." replied the young man, hesitatingly. "Where are you going?" pursued the Major. Shall I tell?" inquired the young man of the blushing damnei at his side. "Oh, Charlie, I'm afeared !" said the timid creature, clinging more closely to him. "Come, speak out, young man !" said the Major kindly. "You needn't be afcard of us. We're looking for shelter, ton." Tht young Romeo felt reassured. "Waal," said he. "the truth on it Is, Mary and I is going to Aud a parson, an' git married I" "Runaway couple, eh ?" "Waal yes, sort o' snmethin' like that I s'pose. Mary's folks are down on me an' they forbid my oourtln' of her. We Jess couldn't stan' it no lonirer.

Well, now look here, my yodng friends, don't you think you're doing a very fool ish thing? Wouldn't It be much more honorable and satisfactory af ter all to turn right about and go home and tell the old folks square ly and fairly that you're bound to marry and must hnve tlieiroon sent ; that you mean to try to make life pleasant for one another, and all that sort o' thing? Tell 'em the snuare truth, be honest with em." , This Rood advlco was all for naught. The couple enme Into the village hotel the next morning, and we knew by their blushes and smiles and awkward manifesta tions of real delight that the parson had done his work. The happy groom drew the Major out one side and whispered in his ear : "Ed I'd ha' knowed last night that you was the Guvnor, mebbo I'd ha' done what you told. But It's too late now, and then, too, Mary's folks is the d dest old fools you ever seel" The Pittsburg Dispatch, a Re publican papor, has the following: During the canvass wo wore as sured that the defeat of the Re publicans at the North would give new life to tho rebellion at the South. Just the opposite effect has been produced. The stars and stripes for the first time in many years floated over a Demo cratic procession In Now Orleans on Saturday, many of the old flags showing evidence of having been long kept from the light. In the mottos carried aloft the liberality of Massachusetts to the sufferers by the Mississippi overflow was equally blazoned with her record at the ballot box ; and among the most enthusiastic members of the procession itself, were colored cit izens in considerable numbers " Let us have peace." Joseph H. Raincy, negro Con gressman from tho first South Carolina district, was beaten in the recent election by one of his own retainers, named Samuel Leo, also a negro. When Raincy was elected to Congress, he carried Lee and had him appointed on the capital police force. At the be ginning of the roccnt canvass Raincy sent for Loo to come homo and assist him.
