1'lnya Trick ets ike Medium,
There were present last night, five gentlemen of an enquiring turn of mind, who were determined to discover whether or not "Belle" and ?ilrs. Stewart were one and the same person. Accordingly, each provided himself with a small quantity of lamp-black, and when the lights were turned down they rubbed this black on the palms of their right hands.
Belle was, as usual, Iho first spirit to put in an appearance, and as she neld ont her spiritualistic hand, it was grasped, .squeezed very affectionate!}' by each of tho fiveyoung men. After this tho usual performance was gone through Avitli, and when the sceance had closed, and the lights were turned up, the five young men pressed around the medium, to thank her, and congratulate her. Each grasped her hand eagerly and examined its palm, when strange to say, tho lamp-black which had been smeared upon tho spirit, Belle, appeared on tho palm of Mrs. Stewart, who uad been apparently sitting in a trance ia one corner of the cabinet, while the materialized spirit perambulated the sceanco room, and fraternizsd with mortals.
There could be no mistkke about it, the hand which had been white and dean when the medium entered the cabinet was all besmeared with lamp black asi were the hands of tho five gentlemen of enquiring minds, Weareuuabla to learn the n^mes of tho j'oung men, but our informant, who received his information from an undoubted authority, tells us that two of them were irom Pana, 111., two from Ciarksville, Tenn. The residence of tho other was not known to him.
What explanation will Mr. Hook, Ir. Pence and thoPandlinonium clique make of this awkward expose?

An effort is being made by the city editors of the Terre Haute papers to change tli© name of tho (E./F. 0. C.) Evansville, Terre Haute ifc Chicago, to "Danville & Terre Haute," which properly it is, aud the (E. & C.) Evansville fc Crawfordsville, to Evansville & lerre Haute, wt:ich it certainly ought to be, as this road has no earthly connection with Crawfordsville. The (L., C. & S. W) Logansport, Crawfordsville fc Southwestern could more properly bo called Terre Haute & Logansport, as these are the two terminal points. It may be that railroad men think it none of tho newspaper men's business what their roads are called,but that don't alter the case.

The EMiie-i of the Talmud.
The announcement thai Dr. Brown, .vouId deliver a lecture oil "The Talmud" last evening, at the Congregational Church, drew forth a very large congregation.
After the usual preliminary exercises, the lecturer was introduced by Rev. 11. l'\ Howe.
Dr* Brown began with the statement that he was a foreigner in fleshy but an American in spirit. He said it was the custom of European students to look with a species of contempt on tho student of tho new world, a faolinrc l°r which he could think of no justification or apology, except on the ground ol' bigotry. The American student lnts no cause to blush when he is compared to thoso of any nation on t.ho face ot the earth. America is not only tho land of the free and the homo ol the brave, but the home of the enlightened and tho land of liberal education.
The speaker then introduced the subject of his lecture. "Tho Talmud, its Ethics and its Teachings." lne Talmud is the collective name of the laws and literature of the ancient .Tows. It is comprised in twelve Jargo folio volumes containing 4,000 dages, eac.i or which translated into English, wotud make six folio pages.
The Talmud was worshipped by ho .Tews until somo five years ago. It has been hated, anathematized, aud.cursed, by the Pope of Rome from the beginning of the Christian era. It has been publiclv burned and buried by the enemies of tho Jewish religion a thousand times. In the sixteenth century, lour successive Pooes of Rome ordered the Talmud to be'publicly burnod.
Ethics is the law of human duty, and the law of society is bv those laws, right or wrong. 'The laws of society aro constant!v changing. In ancient times it was fashiouablo for ladies to attend tho atnnitbeater and witness gladitorial contests. But to-day it would be highly improper for a lady to attend a pri/.9 i'mht, which is the same thing. A few years ago a lady won'd liavo been greatlv insulted if it had been so much as hinted that she wore false hair. The fashionable lady of to-day would consider it a great distinction to bo known as tho possessor of the longest and noaviost switch worn by any woman in her set. In he Talmud we find the code of ethics of the Jews, a code which lias endured for three thousand years, unchanged and unchangaMe.
First comes the law which enjoins filial reverer.oo and devotion. Xo people on the face of the earth wero ever endowed to a higher degree witli the spirit of filial devotion than the Jews.
The speakor drew a comparison between the ancient Greeks and the ancient Jews in this matter. In which the Jews were held up as infinitely superior. The ethics ot the Talmud require that all men shall be charitable. And charity auiang the Jews did not mean the giving of bread to starving people, alone. "Charity was bestowed according to the previous condition of the object. If he or she had been a person of wealth, and accustomed to the luxuries of life, then it was the duty of society to furnish the means to support their unfortunate sister or brother in a style which would approach something near their former mode of life. The ethics of tho Talmud require that all men ex-ert themselves to promote peace and good will among men and the ban ol-social excommunication was placed upon the mischief maker:
Tho Talmud teaches that the highest and greatest of all earthly ambition is the acquirement of knowledge. The scholar, among the ancient Jews, was held in higher regard than tho proplicts.
The youth was taught, that he owed his first allegiance to his teacher. All men.bowed'to him. When he passed through the streets ot Jerusalem, people arose to their feet and blessed him.
The youth was taught that in cases where the life or property of his teacher aud his father were in danger at the same time, it was his duty to forsake his father and assist his teacher.
Tho speaker said he would venture the assertion that there does not exist to-day a single Jew who cannot read and write at least one language. A majority of them are educated in two languages, aud many of them in three.
Dr. Brown closed his lecture by racking a poom translated by himself from the Hebrew.
The Sunday School Convention. Saturday's issue of this paper contaiued a report, up to noon, of the proceedings at the Vigo county Bunday school convention. We continue the
APTERNOON REPORT.
The paper of Mrs. Starr on "The relation of the Sunday school to the church," contained many new ideas and old ones, stated in fresh and preseutable style. She favored ornamentation of the Sunday school room. It should be light, well ventlated and pretty. The church should furnish the means for defraying the expenses of the school.
Rev. Abbey believed in a perfect union of church and school. The interests of both are the same.
Dr. Mitchell favored the provision of plenty of bibles. Rev. Sterrett deplored the popular demand for "history poetry and rhetorical flourish" on the part of the people who keep up the churches.
Following the discussion Mr. Henry Greenwalt read a paper, treating of Sunday school literature.
Considerable discussion ensued regarding singing in the Sunday school.
Rev. Graham was not in favor of much ofit. Rev. Darwood opposed, being a great advocate for singing as one of the leading features of a school.
After remarks from Messrs. Wilcox and Henderson, the session closed, and an adjournment was made until
EVENING.
"The Sunday School's office in the training of young converts" was discussed at length by Mrs. Dr. W. H. Waters.
After some further papers the meeting, which, though not well attended, was yet throughout fuil of interest, closed.
OUR morning exchange locally observes: Arthur McMann h^s tendered his resignation as driver of hose reel No. 2. The cause is understood to have arisen from the bail given by t.he department last week. His place ^"^eijiporfU'ily filled by Jabez Smith.

THE M'EETISTCl OF THE ASVISO&Y COUNCIL NEXT WEEK,

At the Congregational church in I his city yesterday morning, Rev* IS, Frank Howe read to the congregation the letter missive of Plymouth church, Brooklyn, inviting his church to send a clerical, and one or more lay delegates to the Advisory Council. This Council i3 to be held in Brooklyn on Tuesday, next week.
The matter of accepting this invitation—which as has been shown will cost the church nothing—will come before the Congregational church at the prayer meeting on Wed nesday evening of this week, "What action it will take on that occasion is vet a matter of doubt though it is supposed the invitation will be accepted.
In connection with this "letter missive," lev. Howe also read a prio vate letter to hitn and the church from Rev. Lyman Abbot now ofNew York, aud formerly pastor of the church in this city. The letter exposed the hope that the people of his lorrner charge would see lit to accept the invitation to this council before which would come many vexed questions of church polity which oughtto be settled.

THE following extract from our correspondence on the editorial excursion we clip from Rowell's Newspaper Reporter, published in New York:
The Indiana editor is not without honor save in his own country. The correspondent of a Terre Haute paper who accompanied the recent excursion, says that among their number were "Mayors, clerks, grocers, livery-stable keepers, and doctors," declares that at Altoona, where they stopped for (free) lunch, "as the Hoosier quillists hurried out of the room, it was amusing to see the proprietors counting their spoons," and says that though it is im possible to say bow
they
The writer is mistaken in legard to the free lunch he speaks of, whatever else may be said of the Indiana editors, they paid for everything they ato or drank:
$15,000 Salt for Damages. Some time before reaching here, the Jewish Rabbi, Dr. Brown, sent his valise on to the proprietors of the St. Clair House, with instructions, so he says, that it should not be delivered to any one but himself, and that not until his arrival here. Through some mistake and the false representations of a travelling bible agent, the valise was given to him, and he has now skipped the county. Dr. Brown has instituted suit to recover $15,000 damages in the United States District Court, claiming that the valise contained a large number of lectures, the result of long years of patient labor. The doctor has so iost his eyesight as to render work of this kind very difficult to him.
WHETHER the public is pleased with Buffalo Bill or not it can not lail to be attracted by the fine dramatic company which is eaid to ba accompanying the
scouts.
