Indeed, it 18 not coriain that thioy did not make thomselves ridioulous by the fact of sssembling, for theas ronsons, Thelr fownoss proves that there ts no overwholming demnnd for thoir separate politi- cal action, wifich is still furthor evidout from tho faot that tholr platform is Domocratio, The Hoosfer farmers aro tho onrliest of their class to plant thomeolves on sound, unmistakable finan- cial dootrine.

To that condition of affairs wo sro inevitably and happily driftiog, This Convontion -further bolloves 1w paying tho na- tlonal dobt as we promisod to pay it, aud in no other way. As a third-party movomont, this Convention was utterly hlsl%nlflcant.

In fino, thoreia a hurly-burly of made men and hack politicians, and thenco is to jssue political roform, In Iudiana the managors are loss nolsy, but ather more worthloss, Tho fact that tho' Ro- form Convention which mot yesterdny was called by the uttoriug of a forgod dooument, purport ing to have been lssued by the ofiiccrs of tho Btato Grange, may bo accoptod as evidence of the purity and principle that undorlie the movemont. Ita lmKotunco is assured by the nearly even strength of parties In tho State, The Demacrats will not give their calto to those wlo are power- 1ces to take it away, and whose aid in sccuring it is not needed, and the Ropublicans aro uot likely to cousider dfvision among thomsolvos a proper proliminary.of success in a dosperate contest. All those abortive movoments serve but to in- dorse and emphasize the Democratio rovival, Peoplo who oarnestly dewire a roform of national and Btato nolitics, and are not uttorly impracti- cable, will not throw away their votes on portics that havo_boon. unablo to atand six months of ace.

HOOLEY'S THEATRE. Thore was a hint to Mr. Daly, in the fine houso of last evening, that novelty or paramount oxcellonco must bo the altornative it ho wishea to draw to Hooloy's Thoatre tho best of Ghicago audiences. It was proof, too, that thore oxists in tho city a taste for old comedy. *London Assuraoce” may not, in point of date, belong to that brilliant galaxy of dramas thus designated, but {t possesses ono clalm to being thus honored —its excellenco. No wonder it set Londan sgape with surprise. We cannot find such mellow mirth 810 this chotos comedy nowadays, aven when our best dramaturglsts do thoir bost. It is along timo since * London Assurance ” was played in this oity; it never was produced with such smoothness and brillisney as last even- fng. 1t was not aotually flawloss, The blemlshea were plain to everybody in tho audi- once. Thoey were of o oharaoter that audiencgs aro willing to overlook with a self-complaconcy much misplaced. Ono or two of the playors ap- pearod 1 thoir rospective parts for tho firat time, and thoroforo showed a norvousness rather pain- ful than otherwise. But others appenroed at thoir very best, and with tho ndvantage of long mo- quaintance aud of natural adaptation, ‘I'ne most pronounced figure was the Sir Iar- court Courtly of Mz, Charles Fishor, o character %0 uttorly antipodal to that of Burritt that no stranger would bave beou convincod that tho ex- cellonco of tho one did not aunibilate all _powsi- bility of tho other. As drawn by Mr. Fishor, Sir Harcourl's vanity predominated to the verge of monomania, whioh, with the oxaggorated af- footation of tho sulons, made & vory rioh and creamy compound. TFrom Lhe first scene to the last this easy self-importanco was sustained with delightful “fldolity. Tho Charles Court- ly of Mr, Parhes wes mléo a spirited pleco of activg. Hithorto playing only nrte requirlug gracoful manner, gontlomanly ohavior, and quiet action, Mr. Parkos oreated good improssion, Cast for a part which on the ono hand wos su oxaggoration of this, and on tho othor widely opposite, Lo appoared in an on- tirely now liue, Tho sedate solomnity of Gharles Courtly was not less artlstlo than tho seapograco audacity of tho assumod personsge, and the two togother wero very racy aud deserving, The usual domerit of an aclor playing the part of Dazzle is & painful effort, whoso labor {s #o apparent to the audience that tho wild exuberauce of tho lines sluks into a funeral-ditgo by concrast, If not thix, the part is ovor-dono, which is worse still, Mr, Harkins In the role was in his elo- ment, apparoutly, aud played Dazile without farcing the reckless scamp fito a bankruptoy of IIIIINH. His busiuess was neat aud comprehons aive. But neatness fu the attributo of Mr, James Lowls in an unmistakablo degree,—ucatness in muke-up, in reading, and notlon, The finishing touches to his Meddle wors wone derfully nrtletle. There was loss low comedy about the part than could have Leen oxpocted, and it gained by the absence, In tho socond aot, Mcddle's froquent obtrusions nruu the party wero for all the world like thoss of the mosauito,—~cften alappud at to ons's own dotrimont, nover silenced, always roturning with undiminislsed olan, . - A0 TN * " Mr. Davidgo was Lappy in tho part of ‘Maz IHarkaway, although It 18 not & prominont, one, Mr. Owen Fawcott, as Dolly Spanker, was équal to his part.

J. Howard, of MoHenry, sud a Business Committos was appolnted, consisting of E.V. Wilson, Lombard, Til.; A. H. Williams, Chicago; Georgo Gage, MoHonry; O. V. Btow- act, Janesville; Mrs, Snrah Eaton, Mrs, Anuna Lord Chamborlin, and Mrs. Helen Rogors, Ohi- c8go. At 3 o'clock in the aftornoon the Association roasgembled, And the first hour was dovoted ton conference, with speeches limited to, ten minutes oaoh. After this came the regular order arranged by the Business Committee, ton- sisting of addressos by solgotod sposkers, each aliowed half an hour in which to talk. MR, 0. B, LINN, = of Sturgls, Mioh,, was the first to talk. Ho sald it waa & groat mistake that many people mndo, confonnding the idoas of Christianity and relig-_ ion, by supposing them to bo synonymous, when tho fact was that Christianity was only one form of religion. Ho boliaved in introducing the doc- - trine of evolution into religion, so ae to facilitate the natural growth of things. The Evangalical Alliance, a Eralt sssembly of loarned men, wasone'of tho rosults of the rationslism of tho ninetocuth contury. -Ivattempted to har- monize geology with Geneeis, as though it wore of geuy sort of oonsequence that the fact should sgree with tho-record. Some pooplo held the oross more doarly than the flag of their country, nnd perforred the hymn *tComo to Josus "’ to tho '’ Biar Spangled Ban- nor,"—which waa a mistako, as this was not a Christian, but an infidel, country, and henco its progrose. 1t was what Tom Palno pradioted it would bo,—an asylum for all mankind, Arbitrary supprosslon did not belong to American oiviliza- tion. This was tho mistake the temperanco- crusadors mndo, and the reason of their failure, It would also be a mistakoe to baae Bpiritualism upon & dogma. Thoological gonviction should bo relogated to the iudividual, and the use of organization was to build up charactor, MRS, JULIA H. SEVEBANGE, - of Milwaukeo, semembered when the temperance agitators wero spoken of with disrespact. All reformors hnd to pass tlu-augh three slages,— ridicule, disoussion, and adoption. Formerly it was a disgrace to bo called an Abolitionist ; yot tho caugo of Anti-Blavery progrossed, because thoro was truth in it. Bot was that it was con- sidored s term of ropronch to ba oalled & Bpiritu- list, The oarly ploncers of Spiritualism were shunnod and scorned, aod ridicuicd, but of late disoussion had como up, and tho grand truths were bogioning to- bo acoopted. In -its ro- formatory senso, its graudest signlficance, Bpiritualam meant to o live in this life that we should be better in the noxt world. Bhe had great contempt for Spiritualiats who cringed and cowerod before public of luh.mi aud denied thoeir faith, "As woll might the student of nutural golence Dbe - ashamed that le was not mtill studying * the alpliabat. Bpiritualists should romewmber that progress was® the firat law of naturo, and not chng too long to old aud fossilizod ideas, Bhe know many. who stood to-day precisely where Lhey stood ton years ago, opposiug overy new phase of prog- ross, ''he day was coming .when theologians would prove epirit communion out of the Bible, and swour they always belisved it. One goo result tho speaker could forvsce from the efforts of the crusadora,—it was that ¢ would convinco everybody of the Inefficacy of prayer,—but it would have no offcot in decroasing intermperance. Bhe was longiug for that happy day when every man and womsn could live just” as he or she loneod in every respect, without having their fivns watched and Prled 1nto by their noighbora, 8ho Lad no hope of roform except through edu-~ oation. Bho-liad no faith in prolibition; the only way was to educate people against intem- porance, MR, 0. W. BTEWART, of Janesville, snid that phonomonal Spiritualism, was progrossing finoly. ~ All that was said against’ it eimply belpod it on. _Tho reason why scion- tists biad not recognized Bplritualism was, that there woro 80 many dh!%\lfll ug phases conneoted with phienomonal “spiritunllsm, Thers wore so many humbugs that it was no wondor that sol- entists refused to recognizo them. Fully 90 per cent of apiritual mauifostations wore eithor of mundane origin_or else were humbugs, This statement aroused the ire of Mr, Poter West, who demanded tho authority for it, Mr, Btowart repliod that his authority was his obsorvation and bellel. e had notexaggerated tho faots in relntion to humbuge, : Mr. Wost manifosted a desiro to tako istue on this point, but the Chairman choked him off. MR, BTEWART procoeded to esy that Bpiritualism had been nccopted Docause ita truth had boen demon- stratod. Obwistionity was making a gigantio offort to swallow it, bocause thoy knew if it did not it would soon awallow them, Bpiritualism was doatined {» 8woep away tho' old basis of 1ics on which Yueclogy stood, snd opon up a rouder movrfaont. Tho sootarian ministera fluow thiy, £#1 theroforo thoy were trying to swallow B:fvituslism, ~In Terro FHauto the orthodox oldrgymen united in publishiug s card indorsing Prot, Baldwin in Lis oxposure of tho tricks of Spivituallem, aud soon after, on the strongeh of this, an old lady was swindled out of all the money he had b{ investing in the ex- posure schemo, ‘Theso ministors wore awfully slok of the mattor boforo they got through with it, and they had ainoa leotured on the subjeot of Spiritunlisin, and had admitted the bams fact of it, Sphitualists must organize and masa tholr. forces if they would produge grand reAnlts, Christianity had fniled booauso it did not rocog- nize the law of progress. Freo Thiukers must not fear investigation, If Old Niok himaelf were proscut in the Liall to-day, the apeaker would fus “yits him to the platform, and ask him to make a .8peoch, and If hie had the bad luoicto get inlo an orthiodox ' Hoaven, ho would got up a digoussion with Jesus Ohrist on side fusuos. . .

Ho lold tnat the Northorn Illi- nols Assgclation of Obrlstianity and Troo Thinkers was tho gate through which poopls must pasa boforo thoy wore quali- fled for solf-govornmont, Thoy asked no man to think as thoy did, nor obligated thomsolves to think as no man thought. 'Thoy wero froo to think and worship the good God, wlo sont thom frionds to communo. with, instead of strong dolusions and l,l'lng epirits. Bpirituslism waa & fulcrum on which scientists could rost thoir thought ; and sciontific mon_wers merely roo- ondory workors 1n tha flold. He would go fur- ther than the lprwndmg spoaker, and say that 100 por cont of Spiritual manitestations wore of wmundane origin, springing from a mundano brain, As to the chents and impostors, ho .was glad they existed, for thu{l wore ovidences that thore was somotbing worth tmitativg. Nothin, but gonuine coln waa ever countorfeited. 8wing swallowed a lttle Spirituallsm, and look what a furoro it kicked up in the Prosbyterian Churolr, Frothingham predicted that 8piritual- ism. waa to bo the futuro roligion of Amorica. Tho speakor nakod tho Bpitftualists to have a back-bono, He had learned that God and ono mado a majority, and that there wore two ighoreu of fuspiration—ono from the throne, o othor from tho guttor, both active and uso- ful, It was tho triumph of tho gutter eloment that beat tho crusnders, ' bocauss their rights woro threatoned. This was justice, Tho orusa- dors were wiped out and now everybody must stop forward and eavo God from this clement. Ilo liad learnod that the minority was slways right snd the majority wrong. Tho Asaociation then adjourned until 7:80 in tho evening. ¥ Tho Association mot in the evening Prosident Howard in the chair. After an hour of confer- onco talk, tho spcoohes began. It would ap- oar that the Business Committee ran short of alking material, for they were obliged to fall back upon those of the speakers who had edi- flod tho meulh};f at the safternoon seasion. Mossra.
