Family Quarrel.

When people have been tossed too and fro upon the waves of exciting discussion, when editors have shaken scissors and pencils at one another, when locals have "unthoughtedly" told secrets and chiefs have chided them, when parsons «.nd deacons have rasied a question of veracity and an editor is the judge, when the village Smith has pounded a parson, when Westfall trembles, and Hao vens is not a haven of rest, when *P' punches and pounds promiscuously, and "Dr. Bigeblow" descends from Latin to English epithets in an interview, when a triangular trouble has grown from a trifling tripartite tiff, to an octagonal on slaughtand the GAZETTE is filled to bursting with wars and rumors of ware, and can scarce catch its breath for publishing every line about it, when everything is ip the regular lix we have described, then is it higb time for us to unbox the compass, and, taking advantage of the first lull in the etorm and the first break in the clouds, try and discover where we are and from whence we have drifted. The GAZETTE of to-morrow will reprint the original article* from the Mail upon "Dr. Bigblow" from which all this bother has arisen, and, to the end, that the people may see the question in all its bearings

The following note was received at this office yesterday, but too late for publication in the GAZETTE of that day. It explains itself:

TEKKE HAUTE, Feb. 2nd, 1870.

EDITORS GAZETTE: You will oblige the Ponces hall clique by publishing the inclosed manuscript in answer to the article in GAZETTE of 1st inst. if the Publication is refused please return the manuscript bv bearer.

JAJTES HOOK for Pence Hall.

Accompanying it was the document which we publish herewith. It is a sort of biographical sketch of the parties signing the manifesto published in the GAZETTE of Monday, which pronounced Mrs. Anna Stewart's materializations a fraud, and Pence's Pandemonium a snare and dLlusion. Mr. Hook pronounces them long haired scalawags, and ignorant donkeys—an opinion, in which wo confess we felt like agreeing with him, when we first beard that in these panic times, when it is so hard to earn the wherewithal to keep soul and body together, they bad left house and home to como hither to squander tfeeir substance, if not in riotous living, then at least in chasing shadows, so to speak.

More than this, we now rccogniz9.in them deadly foes toTerieHaute's prosperity. They envy its name and fame as the Spiritualists' Mecca. Some of them are ministers aud mediums of the

here by abase desire to grow up with, and so to speak, on, the good Spiritualists of Terre Haute. As Mr. Hook suspects, and as we helieve, they came here as to a Spiritualistic land flowing with milk and honey. It was their purpose to come here and live on the fat of the land and as bead lights in the seance room, gather to tbeir garners some small share of that tithing, which a worsbipfuL lot of faithiul believers, and faithless but careless scoffers are ever paying into the exchequer of this temple of folly.

All of this Mr. Hook hints at, and we thank him for having given them their dues. He and the hierarchy at the Pandemonium did right in turning them away. There are'already enough high priests and high priestesses. What the Pandemonium needs is not more priests but more worshipers, less consumers and more producers, fewer paid prophets and more profit payers.

The GAZETTE adds its voice to that of Mr. Hook,—for the Pandemonium's prosperity is the wealth of Terre Haute—in declaring to the world that there are already in Terre Haute enough mediums. We have the best in the world. We don't wa*t any more. Mediums out of a job need not come haoging around here. We have no work lor them. What we want are pfiople who have dead relatives they are curious to see, and who are willing to pay for the privilege of having them called from the vasty deep. A well trained medium, we wish tho world to know,with her band in at the business, warranted to yank a Bpirit trom the other, to this side of the river in fifteen minutes, and to fill all orders lor dead friend is constantly on duty at the Pandemonium. Persons who want to use a medium are always welcome, bat we have-no use for any more mediums.

But we beg pardon of the reader and Mr. Hook* We have been betrayed into

longer sermon than we intonded. It is now Mr. Hooks show for the white ally. Ladies and gentlemen! we take great pleasure upon this occasion in introducing to you the right ftev. James

Editor—In the GAZETTE of Feb. 1st* appeared a card entitl€ftJ pronunciamento, signed by eleven persons, representing several States, who were visiting this place as they say ior the purpose of investigating the truths of upiritualiso. through the mediutnsbip of Mrs. Anna Stewart, and so keen was their perception, that in an incredible short time they unearthed the whole concern and to their entire ,. disgust and chagrin found it to be a 1'V STUPENDOUS FKATJD.

not only of this community but the hundreds of trusting but dreaded souls that might have been drawn into this vortex at Pences Hall from the several States that the immortal eleven so nobly and ably represent.

That your readers may have some idea of the noble band of public benefactors, we will give in brief what we bave learned of them, or at least a few of them who seem to be the most inspired and highly gifted among them.

J. David S. Caldwalder, tlie representative of the State of Delaware, is of small statute, effeminate in appearance, with long hair hanging down his back like a female, with sufficient assurance in his manner to make up for the lack of tho physicuo, and with a suitable change in apparrel, would readily be taken for a female. Professes to be a medium and •lecturer, oxpected something oi the Pence Hall crowd, did not seem to bo pleased with hia reception, and want of appreciation sftemed to displease and irritate him, and he shook the dust off his feet against this place, particularly Pence's hill. 2. Mrs. II, Morse, Stale lecturer for fowa. (she eays,)dnd of course repre sonts that State is a woman ot rotunda proportions, ruddy face, features well marked, with expressive countenance marking individuality largely, as much as to say when I f.have a husband, we are not eptirely absorbed in one. Rathor vivicious inclined to loquacity, and at times when under influence difficult to keep still. I should say not over fifty years old. She is alsoa lecturer and as many of that class are exacting, wisiii.:^' ospecial favors, and of course are not luippy if not roceived. She came in that attitude. Soon after her arrival she was made happy by sight of her daughter as she said in a materialized spirit form that daughter being deformed in lile by what is termed hump shoulder was a marked case in which there could be little mistake, and for the first day this remarkable woman was in estatlc joy from having seen and caressed her daughter, but oh! the mulatility of human affairs, the stubborn-relations of material looking house bills caused a chirge to come over the spirit of the spirit of Mrs. H's dreames, aud she suddenly discovered that tho hump was on tho other shoulder of her Spirit daughter, and the whole thing was fraud. [Will the reader just pass bis eye over paragraph 2 again, and tell us what he thinks about it? Has he words in which to fitly characterize the_conduct of a mother who sheds crocodile tears over the materialized form of "what is termed a humped shouldered daughter, and when it was discovered that the Pandemonium wouldn't furnish ker work as a medium, pretends to make out that the wrong shoulder was humped in the spirit. What does stia know about spiritual philosophy? How can she tell that her chili hasn't recovered from her original case of what is termed hump shoulder? How does she know, we would like to know—and we speak for the GAZETTE aud Mr. Hook too in this matter—that she hasn't had a fight oince,

01*

met with

some accident on the other side of the river, by which she has had her other shoulder deformed by "what is termed hump shoulder?" 'How does she know that her daughter didn't hump the wrong shoulder in the seance room, just to fool her? Spirits area.friskev and a joking set. The GAZETTE pronounces Mrs. H. Morse to be herself, a mere fabrication. [YE GAY GAZETTEER.] 3d. R. Parkinson, of. Oshkosh, represents Wisconsin. In speaking of this wonderful man,. I feel kind of-awe stricken, as we do at times in looking at any wonderful development in the works of art or nature. Not., that his 1 hAffflipfprient is so different from other mortals iu formybtrt-his WOHcleflUl "powers, past and present. .In his youth, when,but a lad,ho was inspired to road the heavenly bodies like an open book. Astronomy, astrology and all other occult sciences were unveiled to him, and he was the greatest prodigy of the age. He numbers the stars of the firmament bis comprehensive mfnd grasps the most difficult problems, and with unerring certainty solves them. In ttie stance room he became Sir Oracle, as be discoursed learnedly on obstruse sciences knew all the laws governing materialization, in fact what he did not know, would make a very small primer. Some of the attendants, at Pence's Hall, and his boarding house were astounded. They thought a new light had come into the .world, and he was the John tho Baptist Tor the occasion. But Terre Haute and Pence's Hall were not longer to receive the light of bis great mind. His time was too valuable was worth to him, he said, one hundred dollars per day. He represented the press of the Northwest. "No Chicago pent up, contract tala 110 ers'

The whole ortu west was his'n." I can give but a faint outliuo of this wonderful man from Oshkosh. He must be seen and heard to be appreciated.

Of the other signers of tbe declaration we cau give but little information, they b6ing very reticent as to their history or the services rendered 'the country, but it is to be presumed that they are all nien of large experience, and are representative men to whom a grateful people, among whom they live, will ever hold in kind remembrance for the valuable services rendered. Tb^ bringing Bbout in a providential way the coming together ot such an array of detective talent, such capacity for seeking out the bidden mysteries of these wily workers of iniquity of Pence's Hall, who.for so many days baffled all the skill heretofore brought against them, and whose destruction has been so devoutly prayed for, and which has been done in so incredibla short time, and in such complete manner, should be celebrated by a general jubilee.

Now, Mr. Editor, let. rae say one word to you. I like your style. You are running a paper, and a sensation is what you want, and whether true or false, it don't matter with your paper it is all the same. In the absence of anvthiog better, get some skunk, either at home or abroad,to pitch into some body the bigger tbe lie the better. [Ye Gay GAZETTEER begs leave to hope that our prompt acceptanceaof bis adyice, HS witness the publication of this card, will please Mr. Hook.]

In the absence of other matter to talk about, Pence's Hall and its votaries seem always to afford you good amusement. Yon can always find vent for your pent-up powers of billingsgate, "like the Quaker said to the man who waa

swearing,"

"spit it out, it-will do

von irood." aud it don hurt tae Pence how them what Don

yon good," aud Hall clique so go. in, show them wuac TOU can do.

Don't.be

afraid the boys

you can do. will like it. INVESTIGATOR. P. S. I understand that Mrs. Anna Stewart will hold seances ev«ryeven!ng, if

her

health permits. Stances will

is devoutly hoped she won't be exposed again for

ANOTHER -PABTT TO THE SPREADING SENSATION. Oh consistency, thou art a jewel, and thy cognomen is ''P

flinging of densely crystaliz-ed matter, by those who dwell behind plate-glass, that might be profitably sludied by "P." A fellow feeling makes us wondrous kind.

As to the press of the city, it is what "P." and his follow gleaners have made it, bs it good, bad or indifferent. The weakness of the Mail seems to bave struck a kindred chord in a good many places, and in all probability "P" included. Moreover, the press of any place is the product of two factors, which.act respectfully on each other, the its authorship and its reader constituency. What about the odor of a masked battery throwing mud on another? It might seem to be a repetition of tho pot and kettlo episode.

-^nr

wmsmim

As to the effect of firing from the masked battery "eroctod couspipicuously," tho amount of retaliation attempted is sufficient answer. As to the scripturalness of its firing, that can hardly be determined. The scriptures in the hands of expe/ls, can he made to answer a variety of things, but their relation to this matter of fact is hardly apparent.

In conclusion, "P'H." appreciation oi the minister's position is on a lfevel with his other points. His field ie to bo bounded, aud ideas to be measured by the subscriptions of his salary roll If the principle be carried tc its logical sequence, no one can raise tongue or peu without the sweet will of those in whose employ he is. The lawyer is a feed professional he has no right to wag his tongue without tho consent of his clients, on any other than strictly professional terms doctor and grocer likewise. SII.EX.

ASTRONOMICAL.

0CCULTATION OF THE PLEIADES KY" HE MOON.

Ceremony f© be Performed Ibis Evening.

So ('aids.

An interesting event takes place

Alcyone

'111

the heavens this evening, being nothing less than th® passage of the Moon between us and the Pleiades, or "seven stars" as they are usually called, hiding from our view live out of six that are visible to the eye of the ordinary observer. The phenomenon will begin at a little before 8h. 14m. P. M., with the occultation of tbe star marked in the accompanying diagram, and end at about lib. 14m. P.M., when the star marked fwill emerge,[after having been obscured about 40 minutes. At the first named time the moon will bave passed the meridian nearly an hour previously, and be 64 degrees'above the horixon at the last named time her alii ude will be 33 degrees:

The phenomenon will be a very interesting one to those who take pleas ure in watching the stars. Ihe moon being near her first quarter will not be so bright as to overpower the light "£»the 8tars, and the su ccessiy.e .'-".con^ tacts" inay~ De -watched distinctly through a good opera glass or a small telescope. With either of these instruments the star can be seen, and its emersion will not occur till some twelve after ha3 passed from behind the moon. The most striking feature in the exhibition will result frcm .the fact that the unillumjnated edge of2tbe moan will cut oft the light of each star injjsuccession (except e, which is foo far north to be occulted). As we can not see that dark part of the moon, the stars will seem to drop out ot 0bcist» ance without any apparent cause they will emerge from behind the bright part of tho disc.

To tho working astronomer the pass age of the moon over the Pleiades will be much more than a mere peep show. Nearly all of the telescopes over the country will, if the weather permits, be employed in observing the instants of occultation and emersion, as nearly as possible. If these observations be a success, a series of lengthy calculations will be afterwards entered upon, for the purpose of ascertaining how much and in which direction, the true places of tbe moon at those instants differ from the positions deduced by calculation. This may prove to be of service in further correcting tho values of the lunar elements now employed in calculating the lunar places for the use of seamen and land astronomers.
