OUR BOSTON CORRESPONDENCE. Boston, March 4, 1858, The human mini isa riddle. Its idioayncracies are varied and ever varying. Metaphysicians at- tempt to give the rationale of its outward manifes- tations; and when their theories, replete with dry and utisatisfactory abatractions, are perfected, some new phase is unfolded which disjoints their ideas, and their learned explanations are found to be writ- ten in vain. Men may laugh at the past, woen witchcraft and demonology held a place in the mind as living realities. Ignorance may be accounted the mother of superstition, and common schools and dif- fused intelligence may be pointed at as the preven- tive and the cure. The suggestion is only. hypotheti- eal, for facts donot always point to that concla- sion. That Joe Smith was recognized as a prophet, and canonized a saint by ignorance is most true. That the scores of thousands of men and women in the the valley of the Salt Lake have been collected from the ranks of the aneducated through the influence of religious excitement and a ready credenciveness is beyond cavil; but attempt to apply that ex- planation to modern spiritualism, and it fails entirely: and whilst it iy true that bat few persons of emivence in learning’ and thought have become its avowed propagandists, yet the fact does exist that where schools, seminaries, colleges, churches and lectures do most abound, there will be found spiritualism in its greatest power; and if human science is to develope a rational expla- nation of so singular phenomena, it has to deal with them with referesce to different laws from those upon which it has generally depended in at- tempting to account for their existeuce. My experience in Boston has been made unusually interesting by my contact with spiritmalists and Spiritualism, for here 1 made my first exodus from the vulgar plane which you profane mortals occupy; and I have since been having a good time generally among the defunct who have consecrated their invi- sible existences to my amusement for an indetinite period. I only regret that I have allowed myself to remain so long in the belief that there was nothing in the phenomena to pay forthe time passed in their investigation, and I am now making up f r the past neglect in this regard. Within a few weeks, bes*des observing spiritualism in most of its forms of mani- festation, | have read extensively of its history and philosophy, and even this I ha, found to possess @ genuine interest. Allow me then for the be- nefit of those as lamentably ignorant as I was, to state succinctly the general facts connected with its history and external mani- festations, as I have become possessed of them by reading and observation. Jn 1846 Andrew Jackson Davis, a cobbler’s ap- prentice, living in Poughkeepsie, while order the mesineric manipulations of J. Stanley Grimes, a phrenologist, made a clean jumn from his beuch into the chaotic vortex of modern inspiration, and he emerged therefrom a full edged prophet, leaving his leather apron behind. A half dozen heterodox par- sons on half pay were the witnesses of this remark- able feat in psychological gymnastics, and being un- able to account for his peculiarities upon any hypo: thesis they knew or could divine, they concluded to accept Davis as heaven's aunoiuted, and at once they began to dole out his gospel in spoonfuls to meet the demands of scores of sufferers who needed some light natriment to enable them to recover from a condition of spiritual collapse ito which they had fallen. The pouderous rhetoric .ad portentous omeration of fearful ar? unheard of language which was evolved by i. s, probably ander the provocation of defunct sophomores, bad about them the charm of novelty, and as nothing strictly mundane had ever approached even a point of such sranseen dental depravity, they concluded that the language was clearly traceable to a spiritual origin. ‘(wo ears later and the name of Fox was to achieve a istorical prominence for the third time. He of the. Jeather breeches, riding on the «well of religions tnusiasm, had been carried into a haven of safety, where he and his followers builded unto themselves broad brimmed hats and shad bellied coats, which their unworthy descendants, the* young Quakers of | the present day, shed at their barbers, and doa the current style when the spirit mov: them to cut up any shines eupposed to be abhoricat to the tone of ancieut Quakerism. The modern Foxes barrowed in an unseemly and ill shapen little house in Hydes ville, Wayne county, N. Y., and there they cailed ap the spirits from their vasty cellar, six feet deep. The original spirit announced when the means of inte gible communication had been established, that was the soul of a defunct pedler, whom a pre tenant of the house had amiably assisted in getting to heaven by cutting his (the pedier’s) throat, atter which the murderer administered the rites of burial over the body in the cellar below. The boly was sought by digging, aad though water was found ia abundant quantities, the “ecld corpus” of the late lamented itinerant was not observable, and with a consistency a little remarkable, Me fact of not Gud- ing it was regarded as a wonderful confirmation of the spiritual origin of the phenomena. ug those who witnessed the primitive efforts of the rits at Pydesville was a, Mr. Fish, an dhe daughter of the Foxes, residing in Rochester; and when she returned home their hostships fvllowed her, and took up their quarters 5 Mrs. Pish’s honse, and at once the “Rochester Knockiugs’’ became a candidate for es wonder. Here numbers of intelligent citizens Legaa to inves- tigate the subject, and finding themselves anable to account for the phenomena, they concluded that bo A gpagpone from the source whence they pr fe to come. The theatre of the operations of the spirits gradually extended to other places, and after doing a driving business at proselyting for a few months in the rural districis, i.atarally gravi- tated towards the show shop on the coraer of Broadway and Ann street, New York, where they i turned ap in 1850, under the anspices of the great Barnum himself, and rapped their ghostly knackles for the credulous public at a dollar a head Soon after it became known that the Jackson Davis spirits and the Fox-Fish spirita had commenced caucusing in some spiritual coal hole, and finding an affinity between them they strack hands, joined in a ghostly marriage, and in due time that remerk able nondescript christened “spiritual philosophy” was born. The public watched the progress of the bantling with considerable interest. was for some time its wet nurse, though it did turn its philosophical back upon it, when the rits, with an enterprise in accordance with the spirit of the age, begun to come in such muiti- form and questionable shapes. But as if to reprove the Tribune for its unfaithtulness, Providence in its bounty brought others to the rescue. Judge monds came forward with his learning and intel- Jectual tact, to guard it from the anares of casuists, Professor Hare became the demonstrator of its claims to the kind consideration of the scientite world. Dr. Gray end a score of physicians velun- teered their edeles in*carrying it safely through the rile of teething and bap Farah and asthe in- erednlous were Lape | rowing cold water upon it, Horace H. Day carefully ae it ap in India rubber clothes whenever that aqueous process threatened to damage its constitation. The work of conversion went bravely ou. Rev. Thomas L. Har. Tis, who had become one of the leading lights of the new philosophy, preached discourse after disconrse, made up of the elfer ing fros?* *'e rainbow, in which dissolving views of heav-u, irom the sky par- lor to the kitchen, were exhivited free of expense. Here, there, everywhere, prophets arose, tables danced and converts increased, to the great scandal of the the old fashioned parsons, who flattered themselves that they hada divine right to a mo nopoly in ministering to the spiritual wants of us ved mortals. “ Hadn't the prophets and apos- tles of old,” they reasoned, “ held an exclusive post- coach contract for ms celestial intelligence to the world, and were they their legitimate suc- censors?” No wonder that they kicked out of the traces, —Jaymen untanght laymen whose theological learning was a minus quantity— dared to ignove « — claime, respectable and learned relics of antiquity that they were, and assume to build a telegraph from the court of heaven to con- nect with every barnyard in the country and receive iritnal intelligence ina fast way, They certainly did ery aloud and spared not; but it was of no use; the new dispensation had it all ite own way. The vets would creep stealthily into the fold of the t, astonish the inmates by their inexplicable ra ping, and they too wonder struck to Raccemively resist this desecration of sagred ground, fyund them: The Tribune | { selves si dind'ly and carried over to swell the liste of the inuovaters. But ae ine umber of believers increased, the forms in W. ch ‘he phenomena presented themselves Spiritual knuckles became tired of rapping, and the believers longed for some more eatisfactory means of comm nication. suddenly “became inspired with a propensity to tip and turn in @ most unl of manner, and entirely at variance with what was regarded ds characteristic of all well behaved and orderly dis- posed tables, and oftentimes the result was a com- pound commited fracture of a leg or a disloca- tion of a joint, rendering the services of a cabinet snygeon necessary to perpetuate the value of the table asatable. This dignified form of spiri' manifesta- tion, too, soon became monotonous, and trance media were developed to keep Mi the novelty for the initiated. The spirit of the illustrions defunct would lay violeut hands hold of the media, tarn out the rightful epivitual incuobent of the me dtum’s per- sonal estate, oud having ingratiated hituself in the expelled party's bodily tabernacle, would proceed to speak through the medium’s mouth, gesticulate with the mecinm’s hands, and sneeze through the medium’s nove, Washington, Napoleon, Sweden- borg, George Fox, Henry Clay, Martin Lather, and Lerd Bacon, make no bones of fap} ing into the skin ine medium and preaching the most absurd and incotierent nonsense, couched in the most villanons English that was ever uttered. But there were incredulons people who wouldn't believe that those departed worthies had anything to do with it —who would insist that the media were crazy. But this, however, must not be regarded as the characteristic. of all trance inedia. Many there are, who, in a trance state, deliver interestin, discourses; and when the medium is © a young, beautiful, and interesting wo- wan, the work of conversion is appalling for old fogies to contemp’ .te. Mrs. Cora L. V. Hatch, Mrs. Emma Jay Bullene; Miss Lottie Beebe, Miss Sprague, Miss Hardinge, Miss Heiser and others have spoken often in our principal cities, before large audiences of more than usual intelligence, and tae least that could be said of them is that they make outa plausible case for spivitualiem. Even Captain Rynders had to knuckle under. He could stand any amount of hard logic at ee a | Hall; but when he came within the influence of . Hatch’s pretty form, saw her face beaming with a sweet spirituality, and heard the evolutions of her poetic mind clothed in unex- ceptionable rhetoric, he was conquered, and in com- non honesty he had to acknowledge his conversion on the spot. If he hadn't been converted he’d have been # brute. Bat there wae a class of hard shel skeptics whom nothing but phenomena bordering on the supernatu- ral would convince, and a new phase of manifesta- tions was gotten up to carry conviction to their un- believing souls. Vianofortes would start across the room when there was no goed reason why they shonld. Chairs would turn double sommersaults without being asked. Tables would be lifted into into the air, and after circumnavigating the ce‘ling, would come back and “tip” ont an account of their discoveries on the voyage, like any other Christian traveller. Pots, kettles, pokers and tongs circulated extensively ‘4 iouses where the pereriel harmony of the famiy circle had previously left those articles to remaia quiet accessories of the culinary depart- ment. Bot another peculiarity of the spirits is that of some femi they indul; extensively in written gospel. The mediam's hand is seized by some influence beyond his control; it grasps a pencil, indulges in a dozen or two digital shake ups, & la St. Vitos’ dance, as a premonitory symp- tom of the influx of inspiration, and then proceeds to write down Gospel st a rate which would have as- tonished the Apostles. Indeed, one well trained writing medium will not only evolve more scripture in three days than St. Matthew did in a whole life- time, but it will be characterized by idiosyncracies of style so extrvapostolic that the primitive Anos tles themselve, would be very apt to acknowledge themselves done for by the intensity of the inspira- tion of their successors in the present day. But more than this. Media there are who write con- nected disconrses with each hand at the sametime on different subjects, in a chirograpby commendable and language irreproachable. Without a full refe- rence to “the fron horse,” the “hotcled and chained liehtning,” &c., &c., commonly cited in rhe torical eplarges, 1 will assume that we do live in a progressive age, and that we are in danger of bersting off our moral suspender but- tons, because the ¢: ive qualities of the rubber are not commensurate with the rapidity of our growth; and certain it is that if the abilities of me- dia continue to increase in the ratio of the past eight years, it will not be too much to expect that while the spirit of John Knox is making the medium’s tongue fervid with eloquence, and John Milton with the left hand is inditing a lucid description of the infernal regions as they now appear, General Jack- son may give positive evidence of his immortal existence by taking possession of the right hand of the medium and writing in an emphatic style, “By the Eternal.” The wants of the spiritualists whose pleasures exist in mnsicol harmony are supplied in this same supernatural manner = untold numbers of the de- parted, who volunteer their artistic services when- ever required. They play the piano, the guitar, the | violin, the accordeon, the flute, and even the banjo, | they intercept the celestial mails, and surreptiti | put false intelligence into the mail bags to lead us | when nothing is apparently in contact with the in- strements, to the astonishment of orchestras, who, when they hear musical sounds executed by invisible hands, and see in the ag the tent of an oc- cupation gone, rash with hot haste, in the madness of despair, and drown their expectant sorrows in a glass of exhilarating lager. Bat in Ohio it is that the musica! antics of the spirits are cut up in thetr most outrageous eccentricity. There resides a man of patriarchal exterior, named Koon, who, so far as Theve been able to learn, was celebrated for nothing particular until the advent of spiritualism. Bat, for «me reason unexplained, scores of ghostly Datch men nightly aseemble in his abode, and seizing divers brass horns, provided for them by the self- crificing Koon, they execute their goblin masic for the amusement of the curious free of charge. Grand, glorions and impressive must be the harmo of those ophecleides, sax-horns, trombones, bugles, poate es post horns, &e., which are tightly beard in that room, @xteer feet by twelve. Another and an irresistibly convincing mani- festation of the spirits has been recently annonnced. In Burlington, Vt., Baffalo, Rochester and other places, are said to be media of a new order. When «questions are asked the answers appear in raised, well formed and legible letters on the medium’s arm; but as fuller particulars have not transpired, the conselence of your correspondent will not allow him to expand the detail of (acta, But the moat won- derful of all the varied phases of epiritaal manifesta- tion is effected Tavonals the polygiot medium; for there are media whom the spirits of departed Turks, Frenchmen, Hindoes, Sandwich Islanders, Chinese, New Jerse , Pottowotoinies, Hoosiers, and others select through whose vocal ns to speak in their native tongwes to their friends uneducated in the President's American; the medium being in blissful unconseionsnesr of the ideas of which he is the vehi cle of communication. With the success which has attended the gandivm o! this modern developement, it is not to be supposed that spiritualism would not be respond- ed to by some men of acknowledged st ih mind. ‘In every community are leading citizens who accept ite philosophy, or rather their interpretation of its philosophy, for its teaching» are as varied and diverse in character asthe range of thought itself.

The position of Professor Mapes, of New York, with reference to spiritaaliam, was for a long time a mat- ter of doubt. He obatinately refused to declare his sentiments, though in constant communication with the spirits. One evening, however, (so it is stated,) he ceated himectf on a mahogany table, la Turque, ac din solemn sence awaited the result of his ex- periment.

In all the Southern States it is going from plantation to plantation, like the periodical visitations of the measles. A Southern lady, the daughter-in law of gn ex-Président of the United States, was absent in ee educating her daughters, whea, receiv- ing intelligence that the deuce was to pay on her plantation, she hastened her return. Arrived home, she found that spiritualism had bro- ken out in its most malignant form. Thero it was. The niggers were evolving rough Gospel by the wholesale, amid the convulsive jerks, spasmodic twitchings, muscular contortions, and facial gym- nasti>s so pegudigr te ater pe media; and it is said that the effect fon’ ‘cellent—it rendering them more docile in service. One of its results is an annoying interference with the missionary busi- ness among the West India niggers. In San Do- mingo, Hayti, and Jamaica, the missionaries have found their efforts paralyzed by the darkies prefer- ring to hecome themselves the channel of inspira- tion rather than accept the exposition of prophecy and wisdom by divines who claim not an Peay not the power of divination. In balef, the claim of modern spiritualism in a nut shell is this: Every man his own prophet. But the versitility of spiritualistic philanthropy challenges our greatest admiration. Those of a similar train of thought and sympathy naturally come together, and they step into the traces and proceed to work in behalf of their peculiar hobby. A modern writer gives to every movement a centre and two wings, the right wing being re- ligious in its tendencies, the left philosophical, and the centre practical. In spiritualism this is ex- emplitied. The two wings exist in New York. The right meets, or did meet,at Academy Hall, where plenary inspiration and the Arian doctrine of the divinity of Christ are held to render the preachin, of Rey. Thomas L. Harris as a sanctified medium ot communicating intelligence from above. the left wing meets at Dodworth’s Hall, where spiritual phi- losophy is the burden of discourse, and as the pretty women for the most part speak from this rostrum on abstract etiam gr to the astonishment of meta- physical thinkers, it* may be well supposed that the rush of attendance is at Dodworth’s Hall. But the cen- tre or practical part of the movement has been practi- cally ignored in New York since the night when that queer conglomeration of spiritualist, socialists aud lunatice—the Free Love Club—suspended, under the pressure of excessive patrot andthe Kighth ward potion, who locked Bp Albert Brisbane for the night, rause he had no’ rg to do with the movement, but was present, and allowed Stephen Pearl An- drews to escape martyrdom, because he had all to do with it, but wassick at home. There is no telling what might not come of these humanitarian efforts of the spiritualists were it not for the fatality that seems to attend their leaders. Dr. Tom Nichols, and his wife, Mra. Gove Nichols, early elected themselves the apostles of free love, spiritualism and socialism, and went in for the campaign with Stephen Pearl Andrews in the reformation of the world, but An- drews, with a singular inconsistency, got married, and the Nichols are now calmly reposing upon the bosom of St. Ignatins Loyola, havin; Voraeen spiritualism and free love to experience the full frui- tion of the Immaculate Conception. Bat here, in Boston, is the centre of the movement. Here the; fraternise with Pearl Andrews, and are evolving all sorts of schemes for social regeneration, while their brethren in New York are devoting their valuable talents to piety and philosophy. Bat it is not alone among the Protestants that the manifestatioas are showing themselves! Media, who hold to their Ca- tholiciam with all the tenacity of fanatics, are serinaing. up all around, and particularly in Europe. luine, who created such a sensation in the court of Louis Napoleon, and among the cardinals at Rome, by the exhibitions of ground and lofty tumbling of the furniture, having been taken into the bosom of the Catholic church, his powers are now regarded as among the miracles of the church, while the same peculiarities in the presence of media outside are accounted for as the influence of vagabond one dwelling upon the nether side of purgatory. nd while upon this subject of evil spirits, it may be stated that the spiritualists are often an. noyed by the impertinent presence of the spirits from below. They drive off the lamane and godly ghosts, who are endeavoring to guide us rightly; y astray. Remarkable are the antics that these invisi- ble rapscallions execute. One fellow, who irreve- rently assumed to be Henry Clay, compeiled the medium, much against his will, to make a long harangue in favor of free trade. Another, bent on scandal, personifigd Dr. Channing, and when the medium was asked to prescribe for a case of tooth- ache, the evil spirit would insist that brandy cock- tails were the only remedy, and the patient having an undue confidence in the identity of the spirit, followed the prescription with an apparent relish. These things reflected discredit unon spiritualism, and T understand that a coterie of philanthropic be- lievers in New York, two orthree years since, began the work of bringing those profane spirits to a realizing sense of their lost condition, with the view of ultimately elevating them to millenial joys. Their success exceeded their expectations, for they found that, by a united effort, they could in@n single “evening, boost a low lived spirit from a — of earthly degradation to among the well behaved ghosts of the seventh sphere; and had it not been that the heresy of free love insidiously crept into their circle, and that they got to creating spirits instead of saving them, the usefulness of this pre-eminently self-sacriticing circle might have been a living reality to-day, ‘o enimerate all the vagaries of spiritaalism would make this communication tedious, But if there be absurditi's which make men «mile in con- templating its phet.omena, there are yet many, very many, who believe in them, and whose integrity and intelligence are Lee l mestion. They estimate the number of bel in America at three mil lions. If the number was bat a million it would show an example of rapid growth unknown in dis- in £9 brief a thme. hat its fate will be is an- certain. It may be the foundation of a numerous religious sect, or it may die out because af the deve lopement of an explanation of ite phenomena in ac- yar eg known — ~ buat whatever be its intrinsic merit as a philosophy, it is now a power in the land that is rapiily increasing.
