To the Editor of the Daily GAZETTE I a6k you Mr. Editor to grant 6pace in your columns for the following explanation of the socallcd Jones alias Pease expose, and a short criticism of Truth Seeker's reply to "an old citizen."

In my reply to said Jones, whose note of inquiry was dated St. Louis, he was advised not to Come unless prepared to remain six or eight days. He came, however, all the same, and at once demanded a private seance. In reply he was told that the medium was not well and could not grant the request for a seance that afternoon, but expected, health permitting, to give the usual public seance that evening, which he would be privileged to attend, and to further his investigation she might be able to give him a chance during the afternoon to witness the process of taking spirit pictures and at 3 P. m. he could attend Laura Morgan's public seance. He accepted both and proceeded, first to examine the picture phase He complains that he w'es disgusted on being introduced to a "slatteringly, slovenly-looking woman." But what, Mr. Editor, may I ask, has the looks of the woman to do with the phenomena? The sneer was most likely a safety valve to relieve a prejudiced mind. But to the pictures. They came—but how, or in what manner they were produced, he fails to ex-

SIrs.

lain. This closed his investigation with Stewart, as she was not able to grant him a seance at any time during his stay of twenty-four hours in the city. Nevertheless "Truth Seeker" claims that Jones exposed her. Will he explain how It was done?

Next our perservering investigator visited Miss Laura and sneeringly characterizes her as a "loathesome, dirty, half-witted girl." But what, Mr. Editor, may I again ask, has that to do, if it were true, with the phenomena? One pos sessed of such prejudice would, had he lived in the apostolic age, assisted at the

crucifixion. He says the medium was "tied with ropes and belts and with flour in her

hands," and when a form appeared he I was permitted to take it by the hand*, *'1 which were "sweaty." A poor

deluded woman rushed forward and declared it to be her Charley." But he knew better. He could see it was the dirty medium. But how, Mr. Jones, alias Pease, did she get out of the ropes and belts, and what became of the flour while 6he was playing spirit? You have failed to explain a mo6t important point to the thinking mind.

The prejudiced skeptic decides a case of expose without testimony. "Truth Seeker" says he read Jones' expose with much attention. If that is true,

4,Mr.

*^Truth' ^Seeker," you must

have ^fftirpodely" misquoted when you make him say that during the seance "a spirit appeared represent ing herself to be:Mr«k Jones, hia deceased wife." No 6uch representative appeared, nor does Jones claim there was in his article, and if he so reported elsewhere, he lied, which we can prove,

portion of Truth Seeker's" article is made up in discussing the probabilitiea of the Doctor's making money out of the seances. Suppose that to be true (which we unhesitatingly

deny) what has it to

do with the expose or the phenomena.? The honesty and dishonesty of Pence is elaborately discussed and commented upon afe though that had much to do in establishing the truth or falsity of the manifestations Finally, he 6ays "this menagerie has been running long enough to convince this entire community if the cause merits popularity." Can "Truth Seeker" explain Why it was that the Nazarene failed in his day and generation to make his teach ings popular May not the Joneses and Truth Seektr's have exerted a retard ing influence Doubtless they were sneaking around under false and assumed names, sneering, scoffing and urging the officials to crucify him. Crucify him because for sojth he was born in a manger. They had in that day the same class to contend with that we are annoyed by to-day—in proof of which read St l^uke, XVl chapter, 31st verse.

In conclusion,would it not make a better showing if "Truth Seeker" and those qfhis ilk would divest themselves of prejudice and investigate for themselves any not accept the ips$ dixet of any one? The door is open to the unprejudiced who,'when short of fands are, admitted free. The seances are held every even inr nnless prevented by sickness.

AVe have no fears ,v,: that the advice and suggestion of Jones to the authorities of Terre Haute *'that they procced to arrest Dr. Pence and his gang, and thus clear the city of a nest of villains" will be acted upofior receive the sanction of any considerable

portion of this community. Yours, etc., ALLEN PENCE.

CONGRESS.

Us&tfe

The Bill to Amend the Patent Law Comes up Again for Discussion^ but Nothing is Ac1 complished.

SENATE.

YESTERDAY AFTERNOON*. Washington, Jan.

17.

Allison, from the committee on finance, reported adversely on the Senare bill to authorize the killing of fur seal and other fur bearing animals within the limits of Alaska territory, and it was indefinitely postponed. This'is the bill introduced by Cameron, of Wisconsin, on the

24th

of January last, and authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to declare the territory of Alaska, except the islands of St. George and St. Paul, open to the killing of furbearing animals, persotfs engaged in such killing to pay the government

per

cent, of the appraised value of the skins taken. At the conclusion of the morning business, consideration was resumed on the bill to amend the patent laws. Several amendments were offered and acted upon, a call of the Senate being required on each vote, to secure a quorum.

Edmunds moved that the senate go into executive session rejected, and the discussion on the patent laws continued, and when the vote was reached on an amendment offered by Davis, of Illinois, it was again found that there was no quorum.

Wallace said that he and the senator from Delaware [Bayard] desired to be excused from further service on the Teller special committee to investigate as to the recent elections.

Conkling said hfc did not Wish to mike any objection to the request of the senator, but it was not in order to do any business now, without a quorum. He did not know that it would be valid to excuse the senators now, and suggested that the request lie over for the present, or be withdrawn. He moved that the senate adjourn.

Wallace hoped the senator would withdraw that motion, as it was important to act upon his request this evening.

A call of the senate was ordered, and quorum having responded, Wallace said he made the request to be excused because the gentlemen who represented the minority of the senate on the Teller committee, were now about starting north from New Orleans, and the others were going to Charleston to continue the investigation. It was impossible for him

Wallace] to goto Charleston, and the senator from Delaware [Bayard] could not go, as he was in Texas."

Hoar hoped that the request would lie over for the present, and, in explanation thereof, said that there had been 60ine talk about himself and McMillan, who were members of the committee, going to Charleston, but they had concluded not to go. If the Democratic members should all be there, they would be in the majority.

It was agreed that the matter should be arranged between the seyeral members of the committee, and the request of Wallace to excuse himself and Bayard was granted, and the vice president appointed McDonald and Randolph to fill the vacancies.

Plumb, of Kansas, introduced a joint resolution providing for the payment of 50 per cent, of the amounts required by aw to be witheld from certain railroad companies for transportation service rendered for the government referred. The bill is in accordance with the recommen dation of the Secretary of War.

Ofl motion ot Gunter, chairman of the committee on private land claims, the senate bill was passed, defining the man ner in in which certain land scrip may be assigned and located by actual settlers.

The house went into committee of the whole on the^priyate callendar. After laying aside several bills to report to the house, the bill was reached for the payment of

Without reaching a vote, the committee rose, and the House adjourned till tomoi row.

Major J. J. Palmer, who at the request of Professor Cox State Geologist, went to Newton, Fountain county, to procure for the ^tate museum, the meteoric stone which fell near that place Tuesday night going through ttyj roof of a house, killing Leonidas Glover, a farmer, while asleep in his bed, passing through his body and the floor, and sinking deep into the earth beneath, returned to the city last evening bringing the sought for object with him. He corroborates the story of the remarkable accident as published in the papers. He took the stone to the residence of Professor Cox last evening, where several savans held a scientific revel over the treasure. The aerolite weighs 13 or

pounds, is

of an irregluar pyramidal shape, and in texture resembles a mass of fused iron ore. It is dotted here and there with blood stains. After the scientists have finished their examination of it, it will be placed in the show window of Harry Craft's jewelry store for public inspection. -vU

It settled In mr back, and took the form of a large deep'seated abscess, which was fifteen months In gathering. 1 had two surgical operations by the best skill In the state, but received na permanent cure. I suffered great pain at times, and was constantly weakened by a profuse discharge. I also lost small pieces of bone at different times.

Matters ran on thus about B9Ven years, till May, 1S74, whea a lrlend recommended nieto go to your office, and talk with you of the virtue of Vegef.ne, I did so, and by your kindness passed through yOur manufactory, noting the ingredients bv which you remedy is produced.

By what I saw and heard 1 gained some con'fi lence in Vegctiue. 1. I commenced taking it son after, but felt worst from its effe tv. mill I perscrved, aud soo felt it was benefitting me In otner respects, Yetl did nots-w the result*! desired till I hail taken it faithfully for a lirtlemore than a year, when tha difficulty luthu back wascnred and for ninemontnsl have enjoyftd the best of health* 1 xhavc In that time gained tweniy-flve pounds of flesh, being heavier than ever before in my life, aud I was never more able to perform labor than now.
