A Spiritualistic Story.

Mr. Greville, the late clerk of the privy council, was persuaded, when he was over 60 years of ,age, to attend a spiritualistic seance. Foster, the presiding medium, was in great form, and the revelations were astonishing. Greville sat silently, and his aged, wizened face was as emotionless as a mask. Suddenly the medium grew excited, and said to the old gentleman: “A female form is bending over you. Oh! the extraordinary likeness!” Greville sighed. “She lifts her hands to bless you.” Greville sighed again. “It is yonr mother.” “Ah, poor thing,” said Greville “I am glad.” “She smiles. She says all is well with her.” Greville sighed again, and said: “I am delighted.” “She says she will see yon soon. You are old, and you must meet her before long.” Then Greville quietly observed : “That's very true. I’m going to tga with her at 5 o’clock this evening.” Tableau. His mother was then, though 90 years old, hale and vigorous. —Glasgow Herald.
