Females as well as males are often the leaders of these singular delusions, and among the most recent of that class is one Anna Meister, a resident of Philadelphia, who arte Cod.” The feots were publicly brought be fore one of the Philndelph courts last Satur day. during a hvbeascorpu Mr. Rudman claimed the custody of a boy five years old, then in the care of his mother, Mrs. Rudman, who had separated from her huz- band. One of the witnesses, Mrs. Andress, testified to the good character of the mother, and the examination resulted in the following remarkable dialogue, as reported in the Phila- deipbia Ledger: District Attorney—When the child is ill does the mother attend to it properly ? Witness—We bolong to a society, and when there is anything the matter with us or our cbildren we ask Anna Meister, and she tells us what to do; she gives us herbs, and we always get well after using them; Anna Meister knows what is proper for us. Judge Allison—What does she know about ne? Witness—She never practised medicine. but che knows what is good for us. Judge Allison—How does she know. Witness—We do believe she is the last witness sent fromthe Almighty, and that we shall ‘y her commands and live a pure and just life. God gre his commands through afterwards through Jesus nd he tells us * to love thy neighbor Moses first, anc Chris ami be pure and just, ard then (od shail call us for the first fruits of his flock.” The wit- ness continued in this strain at considerable <th and with greatvolubility. Her earnest manner and evident sincere belief in the doc- trines as taught by Anna Meister were painful to behold. The witness, after she had been «lowed to run on in this way for sometime, “tr interrupted by the Judge, asking, You believe Anna Meister as though God were peaking.” Witness—--She speaks the pure doctrine to love our neighbors and to act just.” The ex- ion continued as follows: The child is t to pray, I did belong to a Presbyterian he child is treated now as when Mr. Kudwan lived with his wife; I meet her with the child every Sunday at our meeting; have amin seen her ten times at her house during the vear; I have belonged to this society four years; Mrs. Radman j take spring water because it is pure; we boil the hydrant water to take the impurities off; [ believe in eating salad. Mr. KRemak—What is the object of that” Witness—Anna Meister told me [ should rive it to my husband and child every night at ivo'clock, and it would take the impure stuffs from their stomachs Mr. Mann (aside)—We take it in the form of cele Witness—I give it to my child at 10 o'clock at night; he is asleep I wake him up and make him take his salad: we tuke three forks full at « time; we put on it a little salt, a little vinegar, and # little sweet vil. Mr. Kemak— How about onions? Witness —It is said it injures us—it is un- wholesome. Mr. Remak—What else is there in regard to your regulations about eating and drinking? Witness—There’s beer. If we want spiritu- ous drinks wo take wine! beer is not whole- seme, but the wine ia pure, because there is nothing mixed in With it; (?) no ¢ uantity is d that what Anna Meister says must be believed: my child id; there are 22 or 25 who belong ‘¥; we give a fip, a levy, or a quar- k, and sometimes a dollar is brought, aod this is given for Anna Meister’s board; we meet at Mr. Munser’s house; he took her in he commenced preaching; we have g on Sunday afternoon and prayer ngs on Wednesday evenings; some of us have commenced to preach, because it is our duty to be servants of the Almighty, and must fixed for us to take; I teach my chil ix ears ¢ to the svci ter aw when prea give the testimony.

The entire ease is a remarkable one, divulging a singular wns legally entitled. The court poramte the woman to live ag phase of fanaticism. We believe that this Anna Meister has been carrying on her system of imposition for sev- eral years in Philadelphia, and has before this been in the papers.
