There were several impor- ‘tant sections of the religious community, however, not represented in our bulletins. Of these, none could well have afforded a more curious interest than the new movement of the spiritualists, had they seen fit to put themselves upon the stand and render their accounts current. There is ample evidence on every hand that this movement fs exercising a most subtle and widespread influence. Without some no- tice of its progress our gazette would be materially deficient as an index to the prevailing religiows in- terest and its developements. It may be expedient for the churches to ignore the parvenue creed of the spirit rappers, but the vocation of journalism does not dictate such a policy ‘We present accordingly such facte and statements as | could be gathered on the subject from the journals and tracts,.2s well as from the lectarers and disci- ples of the “ new revelation.” A free convention of spirituatists, in the manner of a mass meeting, called by cirealar, has taken plac at Rutland, V¢., and we undesstand that matters e* unusual and permanent importance to their interest : asa body were brought up on that eseasion, The principle, or phenomenon, in. which the movement originated, has had its due ¢hare of notoriety, But it was no new thing, and ite affinity with popular de- monology, witcherait and the apocryphal miracles of antiquity—-apert trom the question of their trath— is frankly acknowledged. The spiritualists are, it seems, now endeavoring *o move towards @ position where they cam stand ebove this phenomenon, and present themselves more in the vestments of a philo- hical religien than in the garb of a frantic super} stition. They feel keenly the rnsparing onslaught whieh has keen made upon them, bat with the con- fidence of their increased numbers, and the pro- gress they have achieved, they now manifest a spirit of assault and retaliation. mula of thie proposed attack upon the rch or- ganizations has more novelty thau the basis of their creed. They lay it down as ardinal duty to and destroy all uthoritarianism” in sige. @hey have meetings for lecture and worship, but no appointed or recognized minis- try; they hold conventions for discussion, but make no election of delegates; the expenses of their places of worship they are anxious to have paid nthe straightforward cash planof asmall fee at the door, and settle all round when the service is closed. They have no ordinations or covenant of creed; they have no funded property, real estate or Jeases of church buildings; they have no chartered institutions, or any written or implied compact of agsociation; they will recognise no organization, and assert the absolute uncontrollable sovereignty of each individual, as only answerable in the sight of God. ‘They do not ask their disciples even to come out of existing organizations, but if possible remain in them and leaven them with new doctrines. Notwith- standing these ap mt hindrances, they claim to be already a and ‘monious church—a power of the first rank among Christian sects. In the progress they have made sinoe the whole thing was but a mysterious noise in an old house at Rochester, fifteen years since, they agsume in the most confident manver to see the doom and over- throw of the-entire ecclesiastical system which pre- vailsin this country. As a theory of religion, the developement of these ideas would prove, without , the most revolutionary movement which ecciesiasticism has confronted since the Refgrmation. Anucleus of more than a million of professed and attached believers is already claimed for such a re- volution. Its barrica they say, are not, indeed, drawn up on Broadway or Pennsylvania avenue,bat in the far more vital precincts of Lhe jury box and the dallot box; in the Senate and the halls of legislation; on the bench, the pre in tne pulpit indigenous aud popular origin. To back up this curious and radical basis of a religion, they assert not only the Protestant principle—the ht and duty of every man, woman and ¢ to have access to the evan- gelical writin; ut they assume, also, the duty and the abil of every individual to be- come an evangelist for himself, to find acsess to the spiritual world, and draw thence a spiritual inspiration for his moral sustenance, as the trees ab- sorb their own light and air. The means proposed in this method for “evangelizing” the world rendered the matter apparently on « parallel with the praetica- bility of the submarine telegraph—difficalt, but it must be done. The two methods in practice are those of the clairvoyants, whose faculties, by a spe- cies of dervish-like trance, are supposed to be ele- vated to the spheres of immortal life, and those of the various mediums who assume to have the gift of calling about them the spirits of the departed. At Dodworth academy, the chief exponent, prophet, and medicine man of this American dervish delusion has just commenced a fresh conrse of teetnres, which attract no little attention. What he has to say is chiefly in explanation of his personal experience as | a “practical evangelist,” its processes and its results, | is own Iife. He stands up to this task before his | udience with the coolness and confidence of an Elijah, who indeed had gone up in the old fashioned fiery chariot, but was now returned by the more commonplace but much more convenient method o a@ railroad train, He has no creed, no evangelical code, no chureh organization to preach; he does not even present the infallible accuracy ot his own state- ments, nor do any of those engaged in this movement. He simply attests the discovery of an occult and fascinating source of religious ecstacy, a sort of theo- logical Northwest passage to the spiritnal world, by which the Bible is superceded practically, aad where any one may go and explore for himself. fh would bevuslems $0 de ny the extent to which this new superstition prevails, The more noisy and preposterous manifestations of it have subsi as matters of public excitement ; but the private prac- tice of its manipulations and ecstacies are well known to have taken a deep hold of our community. BSpirit* manifestations make a chief and most exciting sub- ject of attention in numberless households, especially in the stagnant social life of our country towns. Clergymen, travelling lecturers and colporteurs bear witness una! equally alarming and | i lablished a new means | of mental dissipation and debauchery among us, the more deplorable as ite victims are mainly among women and children. Its mystical fascination, and the religious garb with which it is shielded, ensnre its encouragement where it should be repressed. The sickly. exhausting and epileptic practices of medium- ship ave accordingly gained a hold here. Sach ean only be paralleled elsewhere b eating in China, the worship of and the like. Its real ext determine. Of those ns who accord it a tacit assent, and accept its distinctive doctrine—the anbstantial and material being of the haman son! and of God—the number is quite beyond computation. | It is in this point of view that the spiritualists have | made, as yet, their only abding impression. The | number of six hundred professional speakers and | mediums were given in the Spiritual Register, with | their names and addresses, as actively urging the movement; whilst the names of a thousand others | are witbheld, because it was not known how far they were willing to become subject to calls outside of their immediate “circles.” The same source affords an esti. | te of the actnal number of professed spiritaalists, | ip\led from extensive correspondence undertaken for this object, and with the faciligies of an editor and Stinerant who had surveyed and gone over the ground the of opium maniacs in India, | uld be impossible to | SPTRITCALISTS IN AMBRIOA.

Besides, what was ground throagh bad to be so divided that it arorunted to very little, and such business with the lobbyites won't pay. For Instance, there was the claim of David Myerle (who iaveuted the water rot- \ing bemp sysiem), which been pending before Con. grees for the last ton or twelve years, was taken up last seerion and persed.

The Boston Transeript has condensed from an article in the last number of the Christian Examiner various interesting facts respecting Massachusetts, which we sulyoin:— Ot the 1, 349 persons in Massachusetts on the Ist of June, 1 1,122,463 were of the Caucasian race ‘éwere of the African race, and 159 were red men; of the whole only six were of unmixed Indian blood. There are 106 women to 100 men in the State. 31.09 td cent of the whole population are of th nt age,” from birt» to 15; 61.91 per cent are of the “ productive age,” from 15 to 60; 6.40 per cent of the “ retiring age,” from 60 to the end. Out of 100 persons in Massachusetts, 32 are under 15,62 between 15 and 60, and 6 are over three score. In looking at the occupations of the le we find that about 41,000 men work upon leather, either in manufacturing the article or moulding it into There are 1,800 doctors, 1,750 minis. » and mall denominations; 1,545 printers, 116 lawyers and 1,060 peddlers. Out er fifteen years old, 3 work in fac- farmers, 18 laborers and 37 mechanics, of whom 12 work upon leather—every eighth man in the State is a shoe maker. In 1856 there were 12,265 couples married in Massachusetts. The number is 14 fs less than that of 1854. The writer asks, “is marriage diminishing in Mastachusetts?” He odds, “the extravagant habits of luxurious men and women put marriage out of the reach of many, vanity prevailing over affection. As flounces increase in number and greaten in size, wives diminish and lessen. A yoman be comes au article of luxury.” In regard to the age the time of marriage, the writer sare, “at 20 the maiden has eseaped about one-fourth part of the risks of being married, but sailing is now dangerons; at 25 a little more than two-thirds of the peril is gone; while at 30 there is only about one chunce in six that she will ever en. counter thet shipwreck.” Out of 200 babies born here, about 103 are boys and 97 girls; this rule seems to be nearly constant in our State. In the seven years from 1850 to 1856 there were but 13.182 children born in Suffolk county to Ameri- delivered of twins, one of whom was born in 1855 and the other in 1856. This, we take it, could happen only in the case that both parents were Irieh ! Some perts of Boston are more fertile than others. Thus fn 1866, in Ward 2 (Bast Boston) there was one birth for every 2) persons ; while in Wards there waa but one birth to 63 persons. In Ward 2 every eleventh fer bore a child that yeu city there was one birth to every 27.48 persons. The births of colored children were only one in 44.40; in 1857, it was but one in sixty-five. This compara tive sterility of colored women in Boston is a re. markable fact. Is the climate too severe for these oh n of the tropics? or is the case found in the ved life of many colored women ? ctorne show that women attain a greater age nen. The native males live ten years more cign males, and American females twelve ret their sisters from abroad.

The Norfolk (Va.)

The Hagerstown (Md) Mail says:—It is generally believed that the wheat crop of this county will be as large again as last year. The red rust is ppon a great deal of wheat, but it only affects the straw. Some few tarmers heve commenced cutting this week. The hay crop is heavy and has been secured. The Baltimore county Advocate says:--On Wed- nesday last we saw the cut wheat of the season on the Epsom estate. We hear considerable com- plaint of rust in wheat, but presume it will be an average crop. The Parkville (Mo.) Democrat says that rust has shown itself toa considerable extent in the wheat, in some parts of thatState; and the Menard dndex says:— Our farmers report that the prospects of an abundant wheat crop are good. Tae corn crop, Dena gens ee will probably come out better than has been anticipated. The editor of the Cincinnati Gazette having made atour to Deleware, in the interior of that State, reports on the : as follows:—Atrip by railway from this city to Delaware afforded us an opportu- nity to observe the crop prospects in the counties through which we |. The wheat looks remark- ably well, and promises a large vyield, though not quite so heavy as last year. The grain is beginning to turn, and barvesting will commence in ten days or two weeks, It is certainly useless to talk about a short crop of wheat in those counties to which we refer, and information gathered from gentlemen of other portions of the State leads us to believe that the wheat cvop of Ohio will be an average one at least. Corn is backward, but where it is above ground the growth is rapid, and the plants have a vigorous appearance. Considerable quantities have been planted within the last few days. Except in the lowest bottoms, the ground is now in good or- der. Oats, barley and potatoes look well. ‘The hay crop will be large. The whoat-is as heavy as could be desired, the eval bending from the weight of the fast ripening grain. Oats lodix finely, and are making remarkable progress; and even corn has already got a fine start, and is rapidly changi from a pale, sickly yellow toa decided and healt! greenness. The Cleveland (Ohio) Leader says:—A gentleman who came through from Cincinnati yesterday sa: the whole route is the scene of ‘the most Shige j industry. The week has it wonders in the oung corn, which is now shooting up night and jay, and robed in the most bealthy emerald. Should the weather so long prayed for continue, Ohio will have corn and to spare next autumn. Grains and grass never better. Corn és backward, saysthe Ripley (Ohio) Bee, but is growing rapidly. With a grod season, we may look for a full crop. Grass and eats are excellent. On the Ohio river there has been Jess dat from the continual rains, and the corm in many p! is above ground and growing finely. The wheat also looks weil, and promises an average yield. In Northern Indiana the crops look well. The edi- tor of the Westville Herald says:—We were out on the prairie the fore part of this week,.and were de- cidedly pleased with the prospect of the poms crops. The corn is in much better condition than we anticipated to find it. If a couple of weeks of fair, dry weather could be realized right along, we could depend upon a large harvest of both corn and wheat. The Pikhart Watchman states that the country looks fine, and pelts wan. Cate crop. ‘The South Bend Register of the 17th states that in that county the corn land hasall plant- ed twice, and the corn is up and doing well, consid- ering the unusually wet weather. There are but slight indications of rust in the wheat, says the Lafayette (Ind.) Courier, and exeept in the bottoms where the growing crop has been drowned out the prospect is iair for an abundant yield. From the best information we can obtain the area planted in Tippeca- noe, Carroll and Warren counties is above the average of previous a Oats. rye and bar- ley in this county, which up to the middle of April gave promise of an extraordinary yield, have been greatly damaged by the continnal wet weather, and will not exceed half a crop. The prospect for corn, the great oe of the Wabash Valley, is blue enovgh. The heavy rains and disastrous floods have revented farmers from getting in the crop. A jarge area had been planted in good season, but the deinge of waters on the highiands converted each furrow into a young torrent, while the inundation of the bottom lends was equally disastrous in drowning out the sprovting grain. Other fields which had been plowed but not planted were beaten solid by the rain, and were left in a worse condition than before breaking up. Occasionally we find a farm, perhaps one in ten, an exception to this rale. The past week has been one of great activity among the farmers. The Indianapolis Journal says:—Corn of the short season varieties if planted now will mature. That which is up, and there is more of it than was sup- posed to be ten days ago, will ye abundantly. here is yet a large quantity of old corn in the coun- try. The ground which cannot be planted in vs can be sown in buckwheat, and a sure and profitable crop gathered, Our Kentucky exchanges speak in cheering tones of the prospect of the crops in that State, with the single exception of oats, which is represented as very nearly a failure. Wheat, corn and tobacco are all doing well. A correspondent of the Savannah (Ga.) Republi- can, writing from Dougherty county, under date of 23d Jane, says:—We had a fine shower evening and one the evening before, which, wi one or two more good showers, will insure to this section a bountiful supply of corn—-ind generally a good supply of corn is a pretty good guarantee for a supply of bacon; and those two great staples secured, we are comparatively safe. Our prospect for cotton is very fair, at least for an average crop. There is a little ‘less, I would say, than an average of land planted in cotton, and a little over in corn. The small grain—oats and wheat—was a total failure here. erything considered, I would say we have at least an average prospect, though the lice are committing some pretty strong depredations on the cotton crops; yet the time to get over this disaster is quite long enough. The Galveston (Texas) Newe of the 15th inet. says:—We learn from all parts of the State that the crops of corn and cotton never have been known to be as good before. The corn crop is made, and the is said to be almost incredible. One hundred mushels per acre is a common estimate on bottom lands. One of the largest sugar planters save, for twenty years past the cane has hever promised so well as it does now. A letter from Monree county, Dispatch, dated June 22, say Everything in this section is loeking gloomy, notwithstanding we have raised and harvested (with a few exceptions) a — crop of wheat. Oats (Ly rust) are almost a failure ; some of our farmers are pasturing them, while others, in consequence of some mules and horses having died on rusted oats, are ploughing the crop under. J learn today that rust 4 making its appearance in this county on both corn and cotton. Most cotton 18 said to be literally covered with lice: Some say that in certain localities rust is covering the oak bushes. Should rust ad in cotton this early, there will be a clear failure in crops. As to the damage it may do corn I have no idea, having never heard of such a thing before. a., to the Angnsta Woman's Rights— Male Attire. The Lemoerctic Advocate relates an incident which occurred in Lewiston, Me, this week. A young man who bad been boarding at one of the first hotels in that town since the middle of April, was overed on Bunday iast to be a woman. She had copied a room with a Mr. Ward, who came to #wiston with her. The landlord of the house let the parties off, upon their promising to separate from each other; but on Tuesday it was found that they were cohabiting together in the town of Greene. An officer war despatched to the place; the parties were arrested, tried before a justice, bound over, and for want of bail committed to the jail in Auburn. At the examination it was proved that Ward was 2 married man and the father of a family. The New Haven News oi the 24 inst. snys a young lady of thie city, by the name of Higgins, of resnectablh ions, who had a desire to see the sights of New York, had ber hair ent and trimnted, and dressed herself yesterday in male attire, and went to West Haven to take the cars for Gotham, where, in company with some of ber companions, she hoped to enjoy the glorious Fourth.
