maining this evening I should think,; three-quarters or perhaps a whole hour. Mr. Koons being sleepy, laid down on a ; bench anl fell asleep several times. The j spirit would call out quite loud 'Koons! wake up.

This evening the spirit promised a public exhibition tj-morrow, Wednesday evening circumstances voulJ ptrm.it, and to write me a communication. Wednesday evening, Oct. 26. This evening things were conducted as on j Sunday evening, except that there was but cne violin player. (Mr. Koons)the other violin was laid upon the table and played upon during th performance by tha spirits with fingers (apparently), n the same manner that a guitar is played. There was a much greater variety of mu sical performance this evening than on Sunday evening; the urum3 were beat; ,c uca . . . i . tambourine played, and violin and harp. Thm c.lct mm'tr I ivr hnrl In mr a m m mw 'wava aa wa a m m, a v - y ear was played this evening on the harp by the spirits alone, (viz ) no one in the body accompanying them. After the music was gone through with, the hand cme agtin. tojk up the thosphores:ent paper, (prepired as above described.) ani after passing it all through the room, and around aitove pipe that passed from a stove in the room up through the ceiling, it came and opened the hand a few inches from my face, right before my eyes, letting the luminous paper fall into my lap, and from thence on the floor, i . The hand remained in this position until ; I was satisfied looking at it. 1 saw the creases in the palm of the hand, around j the wrist and finger joints, as plainly ana i

haud. When I was satisfied looking at whelher bs or not. are requested it. I stooped down to take up the piper 10 ttehd the next meeting. The Socienow lying on the floor between my feet, ty then adjou med to meet on the first when the hand darted down, snatching Saturday in April at 10 o'clock A. M.

I took the hani and felt of it to the wrist, but before I could get my hand above the wrist, it passed away and left the luminous paper en the floor, which I took up this time and held ia my thumb and finger, whea the hand came again and took it out of my thumb nnd finger, with its thumb and three finger, which Idiitinctly saw and felt this time, whilst in the art of taking it out of my hand. After this it came and shook hands with me the second time, letting me feel of the hand and arm, which I did to about half way to the elbow. I wish ed to get above tho hand and arm, so as to say, as I have heard others siy, there was nothing above or beyond, but I did not; there was an arm as far as I felt, which was not to ne as described by others cold, but warm, rather warmer thnn that of a person in good health ; it felt to me like a human hand somowhat feverish dry and husky. After this it took up the trumpet and said, I cannot write to-night, leave paper and pencil on the table and I will try to write when you are gone. We left paper there, on which 1 wrote these words, "Please wrire a communication for Clark Williams;" the door of the room was then locked, the key given to me, and in the morning the following communication was written. which is given verbatim: In answer to your request we will give youa test of our ability to write in the absence of physical aid by the mediums in this room. The circumstances under which this is given will be left for you to report. What evidence you have received during your visit to th"i3 room, should not be placed in the secret chambers of your mind, but should be proclaimed fearlesly in public, for the benefit of others. Blessed is he who hears and sees the evidence of truth, and more blessed is he who hears and sees, and ad. ministers ,lhe evidence to others. Remember J. Boltee in your circles at Cin cinnati he is a highly developed draw in" clairvoyant medium in the charge of! spirits. Given by the spirits of this room." Many of those who read this story, will no doubt believe, as I did before I saw it, that there is some Jugglery, stight-of hand, or trick there, by which these things are done; but I am now satisfied there is not. All who were there with me, each of the four evenings, were equally well satisfied with rne that it must be the work of some invisible intelligent power. Hundreds, and 1 believe thousands, (judging from a register kept there.) have been there from alm?st all parts of the United States, and I have yet to hear of the first one who has gone away skeptical as to the genuinenesa of the performmco. Gigantic Railway Scheme. A Tast project has been started in Australia. It looks to the construction of a railway 1.000 miles in length, to coanect the three colonies of South Australia, Victoria and Sydney. The plan as detailed by Sir Henry Yonng. the Governor of South Australia, is that the necessary capital which is estimated at 1 1,000,000, should be raised by a loan, the interest of which should be provided for by votes of the three colonies, and guaranteed at the same time by the Imperial Government, and that the lands for ten miles on botn sides of the line, amounting to 12.800.000 acres, should be placed under the administration of commis doners, with a view of being gradually half of their proceeds to be applied to redeem the loan, aud the other for introducing labor. ,

Ahmst song, Sec'y. The Xcw Usurpation. When the friends of freedom, upon the passage of the Fugitive Slave Bill, foretold the usurpations of power and the grievous wrongs that would naturally follow iu its wake, they were derided as fanatics, and stigmatized as agitators of base trrason towards the Union. But tho Nebraska outrage furnished the first evidence of the truth of their predictions, The wounds, caused by selfish doughfacedness in the consumation of this swindle, still lacerates the hearts of the friends of Humanity and the storm of indignation excited in th breasts of an insulted constituency bore in tones of thunder to the ears of representatives recreant to their trust, the solemn notes of their most severe condemnation. Then it was fcincerely hoped that, consistent, in some s'ight degree, with their loudtongued professions of the democratic doctrines of Instruction and Popular Sovereignty, those who in the hour of shame and wrong had consented to prove false lo the cause of freedom, and of the North, I now realizing by unmistakable signs the existence of a North, should resign the trust they had violated, or retracing the downward course they had blindly or perversely taken, would by future fidelity to the behests of tho people obliterate the remembrance of their treachery or folly. But these expectations wer doomed to disappointment, and again a-e we forced to record a new act of villainy perpe:rated under the color of law a new usurpation attempted under the guise of patriotic devotion a new attack upon human rights under the stale pretence of vindicating the law of the constitution a new violation of the rights of Sotereign States by their sworn Representatives and servants. The Sen ate ol tne U. b. under the pretence of affording protection to public officers, has committed a gross and dangerous in novation upon the rights of individual States by the passage of a bill authorixing any person cirilly prosecuted in a State Court and justifying under authority or color of law of the U, S. to oust the State of its jurisdiction and remove the cause into a Court of the Rational Gov ernment. By this Bill the wise, beneficent and constitutional enactment which surrounded the citizen with a double panoply against oppression and injustice committed in the name or by the authority of the national executive, by affording him a complete, cheap, and satisfactory remedy in ihc Courts of the Stato wherein the oppression and wrong might be committed, with the right of appeal In trif 5lnrrmO frihnnnla nf tha X.ilinn itself, is abrogated and destroyed, nd he who complains of injustice and extortion deprired of one half his remedy must seek his redress in expensive litigation in far Jistant and almost inacceptible Courts. The jurisdiction reserved by the Constitution to the Sovereign I Ses for the protection of their citizens 1 is summarily usurped and tested io the

hands of tribunals whose officers unanswerable to the people for their mis-

; deeds, are the mere creatures of the cen tral executive, (in turn the mere tool of an ""f"1"' ""JJ; noother apology than the. fear of that SlavocracJ" that the F"Stive Slave Kill, declar1 1 . 1 1 . ea D.v uie "pounacrs ni tne law to be . ... nas ßrown hlack with the scowl of their 8l,rocious treachery to their constituents, l w e e(luay portunate for themßeves l a loo-long delayed rrudeuce Uhould induce the supporters of the Slave I ; ..... ... , i s stem ,n our midst, to forbear from in- . ä,,""ö luu iwuingi upon unumiieti obt;Jiencc to this new usurpation, and to te'ra,n rora renewing in mere sessi bIc Power the indignation of a much in jured, and deeply wounded North.

If, disregarding earnest entreaty, firm remonstrances, and stern rebukes at the Ballot Box, or unholy ambition should prompt deluded victims of selfishness to an obstinate continuence in flagrant infringements of the national compact, we are mistaken in believing that the freemen of the North are now prepared, by all means in their power, to resist the threatened destruction of the rights of Habeas Corpus and trial by Jury, which have already been so vilely assaulted and which they ardently cherish as the bulwatks of their liberty, and us the inestimable safeguard belonging lo every citizen of whatever age. color, or position, N.

It is said to be the best Historical Novel ever written in America. It is not only a truo tale of the time? that ' tried men's souls," not only a faithful picture of the manners of '76, but one of the most thriiling, powerful, and absorbing stories ever penned, This is the opinion of the best and most impartial editors and critics, teveral of whom have read the work in proof-sheets. They all say that it is uo mere 'catchpenny" fiction, but one of equal value and interest; full of stirring incidents and strongly drawn scenes; intensely interesting on every page, yet so beautiful in style, and so true in nature, that it can be read with delight by tha best educated men of the country. Copies of either edition of the work, wil! be sent to any person, to any part of the United States, free of postage, on their remitting the price of the edition they may wish, to the publisher, in a letter, post-paid.
