New York, My text may he found in the 15'h charter and 20th verse of First Corintiiians : Now ibis I nay breth eru that Flesh and Hlood can not nherit the Kingdom of God." Most persons in Christendom think that Jesus Christ ascended in hi material body, a supposition founded on the opinion of a people unscientific and credulous, and having a superstitious feeling about the unknown and obscure Even, notwithstanding the enlighten ment of the atre. it exists to a ureat extent. To this doctrine of a mtr'al resurrection , Sptritu ilism is diametri j cally opposed, as it is constantly j contrad'eted by natural and scientific I phenonena The law of the IJniverse is one of perpetual creation. Science ! says that decay and death are itnme uiaie agents oi me constructive nature of which man a the apex of ll lie holds magnetic relations; to both worlds.

Through , tl'is law of ascension comes a bright and beautiful philosophy. Death is but a new sphere of life. Spirit, cotnmuniou, which is as natural as the air you breathe, must overthrow all theological dogmas. If you movo your right hand you say it obeys your will power, and will of the spirit. Matter is inertia with out the t-pirit. The will of man con trols the hand, foot, etc. Now suppose the body decompose, the spirit having arisen can control whit it could bet. re, and mort Christ being an advanced spirit understood these laws of control When he passed out of his form he come bark and materialized himself so th-t his difcipl-s and others could see hinrjust a bodies are now materialized at Dr. S'ade's at Moravia a'id other places He could materialize his ferm his soars and his face. His disciples knew little of science and could not comprehend how the spirit could thus draw a material body around it, and .-i'i ply Mated matters as they appeared to tlieuu It wiuld be a srjd reflection if al! tloe actiing and itk bodies were to go to the next world. It would make Hcatrn worse than earth from contra.-t with the glories there. The spirit U the man in every essential sense. If true in this life, man can render every step an advance toward ho'icr and brighter joys there. While Spiritualism preseutK the future as buing so beautiful, at the same tim it does not Lnore the fact that man !iiut carry v.ith him the actual condition he has f'trmcd iu this world: G-nibaaMi Jink- ,(i lUmanity together that all mut act ,j n.a,.t on C lCJ, 0,,!r. Kvcy kind . act will. have Us influence upon others as well as its r-. flx action upon one's self. Man is thaught that he can become happy I y making others hap py. I rarely tell a story. Iut wii relate a plain homely occuirence as illus. trafiug a principle. Fifteen years ago when my medium wis living in the west, an old farmer was converted from Orthodoxy to Spiritualism. H.s min i.tcr pleaded with bin" to win him back. I have learned through Spir. itualism to milk my cow," said the old man. How so," said the surpried clergyman. "When I was a memh r ol the church under its stern teachings I would thrash my cow when she prov ed a little unruly, and she got worse and woie, but since I havo been a Spiritualist I have learned' that kind ness is the law by wh'ch God governs the world, and uow I havetio 'trouble with her. Under all circumstances trueSpiritu al ism is the relig'on of humanity. So may each one of you make this system your friend. Itecent Discoveries in the Pyramids. Tfcc Pyramids of Egypt were con structed 4,000 years ago. Mr. Di.yon, of lOnghind, has for some time been exploring tho two remarkable chambers kuowii as the king's and que?n,s chambers, in the interior of tho Great Pyramids, liy meatw of a wire intro- i ii - .1 . . I' I duced between the joints of the mason ry, ho found a space, aud was thereupon induced to" born into the walls of the queen's chamber, when he discovered a passage way, eight by nine inches iu dimensions, evidently a ventilating flue. Its terminus has not yet been found Within tho pa-sage way he found a bronze hook, which is supposed to be the most ancient specimen of bronze now existing. He also found a piece of worked cedar wood and a granite ball, which latter is believed to have been an l&jyptian weight. Its diame ter is 2 inches. As the walls behind which these articles were found were solid on the inner side ol tho chamber it ivi Lnii.-kvnil thnt tl.ev were tdaccd in the positions whero they were fouud at j tho timo tho pyramid was erected. J i :m p lo v i v t o v wi m ii n. The r resence of Mis Emily Faith ful in this country at the present time has revived the discussion .f the wo man question, and been the occasion of pub'ic assemblages to consider a report upon the best form in which to dissem- jnafc correct information and influence popular opinion on th3 subject. A meeting was held a few evenings since at St einwa H.ll which must have given grent encouragement to the advocates of the new movement. It was not one of the uufeminiue exhibitions withlwhich men have monopolized which which we are too familiar in New York, the tendency of which has been to repel de icate and sensitive women j- i - i . . irom laKing any part, out it was a dignified, refined aMsembIag of the VC ry bes representatives of the sex to be found iu New York. The woman artist the author, the teacher, the artisan, the editor and every trade into which the woman has been able to find her way neic repre?enuu ly tlieir C0.cn delegates. There was no loud talking no explosions of woman's rights, no complaiuts, no recrimination, but straightforward presentation of facts itid ?tatitics that must have carried conviction to any but lhe tno.st selfish aim mercenary hearer. Mrs. Henry M. Field, -formerly Director of the Scl'ool of Design for Women, presided and introduced Miss Faithful to the audience. Miss Faithful's address was repotted in full in-the morning papers and need not be repeated here, but the ideas suggested iu it, and lhe remedies for the evils eomp'aine J of which were t here advocated, are deserving of care ful .study and consideration on the part of mechauics, tradesmen, and thought lul citizens everywhere. If we study the progress of invention we shall find hat, iu many directions, soujc newr contrivance has invaded the special avocations of women and taken from them the ability to earn a subsistence hy wotk which at one time was their monopoly. Not many years ago the the baking, brewing spinning, aud weaving were conduced by women at home in the domestic circle It ena bled the females to contribute to the support of the family, and oftentimes the sisters sustained the brother at college without being compelled to leave the sacred precincts of the ho:ne circle. Some of the .best men in our country owe their opportunities for education to the self-d votiou of women at home. How does the ctse stand at the present time ? The baking is con ducted by men, even iu mall towns. Machinery for sifting, stirring, and kneading the flour has b-en invented, which 'must bo superintended by men, and it is only iu limited circle that bread baking cau be couducted at home. It is true that men complain that women know to little about baking but that has nothing t do with our argument, aud we must let the women defend themselves from the aspersion. The fact is that baking ou a large scale has been taken away from the women The Kitne historical record must be made iu reference to brewing. Home brewed ale was tho favorite beverage in Old England aud in New Eugland, many years ago. The farmer.s daugh ter could formerly contribute largely to to tlw support of the family by her hkill iu compounding a domestic brew. 1 erhaps they seasoned the beverage to well, for the taste for it increased more largely than the supply, and it soon became necessary to establish imiueuse breweries, to be again Mipcr vicd by men, and this part of woman's avocation was gone. So we could go on drawing illustrations from lhe mills for spinning and weaving, only that in these latter mil's women are prcmittrd to earn thir support, and there has been somo compensation to them for tho wholesale theft of what was formerly the chief home avocation of our grand mothers. Enough lus been said to bbow the cncroachmeuU upon woman's peculiar province by the invention of machinery and the introduction of modern improvements. These inven tions and improvements have certainly tended to advance the prosperity of mankind, and it ought not to be made a reproach upon our civilization that ! ihey have been made at the expense of the women. It was claimed at the meeting that the sex was entitled to some recompense for the wholesale robbery. . There are plenty of avocations they ought to be willing to exchange for the Etolen property they now hold in their hands. For example, there are 14,000 appointments under govern ruent, not including post offices, of which women get GOO ; there are 250,000 clerkships of all sorts, in shops, telegraph, insurance and other offices, for which women are peculiarly fitted, and yet they get no more than a beggarly 7,000. Now would it be asking too much or some of the lubberly, husking fellows, whoso sin ews and muscles are evidently inten ded for deeds of prowess and strength, tn to give up jumping counters, doing up parcels in red tape, directing wrappers, and keeping pretty acaounts, ajad. to turn their attention to some of the avocations for which women are unfit ted and where there strength can have full play ? . There are many employments to which women are not physically adapted, sucl a hunting trapping, mining, manning ships, running heavy machinery, farm labor, engineering, and the outdoor exposure of expressmen, conductors hackmcn, drivers, and a long list quite euough to afford men an opportunity to earn the lion's share of wages and keep matters generally under their control, The statistics of New Eoglaod show that, while men have ad?ised methods r adding te their wealth, the ability of women to cam a livelihood has di minished. Iu Massachusetts alone there are 50,000 more women than men. The men have rushed to large cities too look after clerkships or to do the counter jumping, white shipbuilding languishes tnd the famous New England sailors are fst becoming a myfhj In tho meantime the daughters of the land remain at home, and, having been de piivei of the industries alluded to above is their numbers increase and 4he ways and means of earning a support de creases, it is natural that they should eel some anxiety for the future, and and demand a larger share in the dis tribution of-work. There are more thau 2,000,000 women iu England who are compelled to support tbera selves and with them the struggle is one of ife or worss than death. Miss Faithful 1 established the Victoria Magazine in order to advocate the cause of women and give employmdut to her own sex in the composing room. Her example has beca followed in this country, and in many printing offices women are nowconstantly engaged. This is one stop gained, but it ought to boToltowed by many others. It has been siid that females are more conscientious and naturally honest than men. If that be true; in times like tho present, when charges ot bribery, defalcation and dishonesty are made on all sides it would be well worth the experiment to see if the gcutler sex are better aide to resist the temptations that always surround positions of responsibility or trust- One thing is very certain, the right of woman to her share af honest labor cannot be put down by ridiucle or dep osition. It must bo met fairly and squarely, and now that it has . been taken up by our most refined and gifted women, we trust that the question will bo soon settled to the entire satisfaction of all parties.
