Prof, Charles Jacobs, who 1ms traveled all over the Eastern State anil Europe, as a most powerful spiiitual medium, lias given "seances"' in this city for three nights, last pat, to small but. respectable audiences, in which he astonished all present. Two of these meetings we at tended as a spectator and reporter, for t he double purpose of investigation and giving results to the reading public. As a relig- ; ions newspaper we were possibly preju diced against this medium and certainly believed his performance to be a kind of legerdemain, which we proposed to un cover and expose. But the performance was of s'ich a character as to baffle our skill in occult sciences, aud we can only give the facts and leave an intelligent pub. lie achrnee to draw their own.eonelusions. The audience was seated in a parlor lighted by a coal oil lamp, and thn medi um occupied a sniall room connected by a door, in which a small window was cut. -. One window and One door to this room were carefully "sealed"' by nailing with delicate fabric to prevent ingress or egress of confederates without exposing the fraud. The medium was then placed in a chair, which was fastened to tlie tloor in such a manner that it could not move without breaking some fastening; and. he being hand cuffed with a set of "jew lery" borrowed at the jail, was tied to an iron staple, which was driven firmly in the floor; which placed him in a position where he could cot move; and the whole audience examined the snrrojndings to their satisfaction, when the performance commenced. Some power and inte! ligenee to this reporter unknown, produced most excellent music from a toy harp; and gave most aton ishing performances in various waj-? Hands and fore-arms of both sexes and various ages were presented, in plain view to me audience. Sometimes an arm would appear, and to convince those look ing on, that it was no illusion, would ring a bell and drop it in on the floor before "the audience. Then a hand protruding would plainly beckon to some particular one in the room as if desiring to shake hands. In these cases several gentlemen when called approached and took hold of the hands, from which they received a hearty shake. These hands were said to lie like that of a human being, but were very colli. Some were small as of little children and others large and rough. Then, faees would appear before the win dow and remain a few seconds, quietly giving way to some other form. The faces of those appearing were not recognized by any one present, but each had its peculi arities which were almost asdistinetas we see people on the street. Several very strange movements ot furniture were noted by all. The second evening we attended, more severe tests were given. A large audience was in attendance and more contusion con sequent, but many tests were given to the surprise and satisfaction of the crowd. i-i 'vi'.'jiuhdcutls and 'Shackles from the XOIFS ASO i:vs ITEM. SUNDAY READING. Bismarck says he is going to Home next year. It is hardly probable that, he will be invited to call at the Vatican. If he escapes from that city alive he will per forin a wonderful feat. The Itetroit Free Press says: "It is es timated that In 420 years America will be without fuel. A good many of us will be dead by that time, and will have no cause to complain of lack of heat." Secretary Belknap is described as brusque ami business like "a man with a head full ot pigeon holes, in which he ha5 filed away in their proper order every event In his memory .' The Worcester (Massachusetts) Press says: "Tlie Prohibition candidate for Governor ot Massachusetts received 9,100 I our issue ot this morning votes, drawing equally from the two par-1 religionists, including the city prison, in order to be sure that no de ception was practiced. A committee of three prominent citi zens was appointed to fully examine the rooms and adjust the irons. During the performance this committee reported several times after having examined tlie several points on which good faith in the several acts depended. One prominent test was, that ot taking a package of card photographs and sim ply leaving them in the room, out ot reach of the medium, from which it was requested that four shadows ot children who had died should be selected. A strange hand called the gentleman from the audience and deposited with him the four lie desired selected, leaving the bal ance ot the package, which was delivered at anotlier time. The music was truly wonderful the four poarts being played in a manner which would astonish any mu sician, and the bells ringing at the same time. While hand-cufi'ud and shackled, one sleeve ol his eeat was put on and off again in less time than it would require tor him, if outside and unshackled. The audience was made up of some of our best and most intelligent people, which was certainly complimentary to the performer. PARTY VS. SiO PAICTY. A number of citizens take the position that it is not advisable to allow politics to enter into our municipal affairs. Theo retically this plan can be given a good face, but practically, tliere is but one safe manner of moving, which is to continue the broad guage policy of the thinking Republican part'. This great party has preserved the nation in the hour of its peril and on its continuance in power de pends the future greatness ot our Repub lic. Equality before the law, is the watch word of the party, and from this radiates all the liberal and progressive measures of the age. It such fruits are produced why should not our whole people cultivate the producing power? It the nation is sate in tlie hands ot the Republican party, it is certainly good pol icy to convey its beneficient policy into ev ery department of government, and to be certain that even school district directors and town government be kept in its bands. The safety of our public schools certainly depends upon the intelligence and "strong right arm" of the great party of progress, and all friends ot a generel forward movement should rally around its standard. Organization, 1s the keystone to the great arch ot liberty, and every true Re publican should step to the front and be come a part of that necessary portion. Let Republicans fully organize for each com ing contest and stand nnited against ad verse elements. In order to secure the ends tor which the party was organized, we should have strict party conventions and make all elections positively political contests. It we have principles to defend they should be made a test in in municipal elections as well as national elections. Let ns hold a convention then, and nom inate candidates for the several offices to be tilled at the approaching election in Salem and see that only reliable Republi cans are nominated and elected. ties the first two figures from the Repub licans and the last two lrom the Demo erats. Migltels, of the Carson Appeal, has iu his travels came across the sublimest 'squash that ever opened It ponderous and esculent jaws to shame the puny pump kins and set the vegetable world an ex ample of peaceful immensitv.

The question of whether a telegraph op ertor may be lorced to divulge the contents of a message transmitted by him, is likely to be decided in the pending trials of mem bers of the whiskey ring at St. Louis. Some good constitutional lawyers hold that a telegraphic dispatch is a privileged secret, which should not be divulged by the agent employed in its transmission, any more than a secret obtained by a law yer or physician in Ills professional capaci ty. The managers ol the St. Louis telegraph company have been summoned to prove the contents of certain telegrams sent ly members ot the ring to their agents and associates. II they shall refuse to be examined, as they probably will, a point of much importance to the eommnniry at large will be raised, and the decision of the court will be noted with the keenest interest. This is the way an exchange tells it: "Mr. Taylor, of Springfield, III., awoke on a recent morning with his throat cut. The matter puzzled him a great deal, be cause he knew he had gone to bed with a whole neck. His own razor, smeared with blood, was on the bed and he smelt chloroform. He was aware, too. that Mr, Stevenson was his rival in the affections ot a woman. This lead him, alter criti cal reflection, to believe that Mr. Steven son had stolen into his roorvj3;pj2He bis SIS -65oi9 " f till him. The wormd had continued to bleed during the time of cogitation and Mr. Taylor was nearly dead before lie had made up his mind. He is going to live, however, and Mr. Stevenson has lieen ar rested. The Clergymen of Cincinnati have de clared that "the Centennial vear will be an excellent occasion tor spiritual awaken- self with the subject iug, and to have a visitation of the Lord I teaching others. The Young Men's Christian Asssocia tlon cantinues to hold regular praise meet ings, every day at the M. E. Church South, at 12 o'clock M. Those bowed down with sorrow, and all who are seek ing the "way, the truth and the light," are invited. We are pleased to note that these meetings are well attended, and that important accessions are noticed from day to day and week to week. The good work s'lonld be encouraged, and as a forcible argument, let sinners be pointed to the exemplar' ladies and gentlemen who manage these affairs. Strangers within our gates are invited to attend regular meetings, admission, without money and without price. Look over the list of Salem churches.

As each one should be "fully per suaded in his own mind." ami worship whatever lis pleases without any one dar ing to drive him from under iil-i own vine and fig tree, this extensive arrangemen of church privileges is certainly a very at tractive feature of the Capital. There fore, select this day where you will go, and certainly a broad field is open. In taking an afternoon walk it will be well to stay on the pavements. Be care tul ami not become absent minded, while studying some abstruse theological' ques tion, but let cheerfulness mark every foot step, for in the turning of events, calami ties ami nmiortnnes will come soon enough to depress and annoy. Cheerfullv take the Sunday walk, but do not trave so far as to fail to get back in time for evening services, tn all things be charitable. If the pig. tailed Asiatic finds comfort in offering prayer to a wooden God, when he don't "sabbe" the Christian God, do not disturb him, for he will not be weighed down bv happiness while traveling through thi lite; it a misguided theorist seeks the "blackness of darkness" anifpills up spir its to obtain encouraging promises tor the future, disturb him not, for if he find mental food suited to his taste and desires to enjoy it, no one should molest him; if any one erect an altar to an unknown God and proceeds to place his offerings thereon. iiu rauuai miouw roo me attar, even though he despise the theory of the wor shipper.
