SLADE AND HIS SLATE. ‘HIS SEANCES IN NEW YORK—THE SLATE, BELL AND ACCORDEON PHENOMENA—HI8 HOME 4ND PATRONAGE, - Dr. Siade, who ‘s now creating so much intere’t with is slate in Europe, probably did the most profitable business of any spiritualistic medium in America He was nota one dolinr map, but a high toned five dollar Spiritwalil No matter at what hour in the day or evening @ searcher after the supernatural might chance to visit bis house iu Forty-third eireet be would find persons waiting for interviews with the “Deetor.”? A short time previous to tho medium’s departure tur Europe a HeRaLp reporter visited the Doctor for the purpose of testing or examining the work of the spirits upon bis siste. It was on a Sunday afternoon, and there were quite s number of people tn’ the ante-room who were discussing the Wonderful things they had seea at the Stade Séances. A gentleman, supposed to be e- tary to the medium, mot the reporter. He stated that Mr. Siade was sick and gre exhausted, Ts was doubtiul if be could command the spirits under such circumstances. He would sev, however—per- baps the Doctor might be able to g! a few minutes. was the regular plan adopted. ith, and his exhibitions were given as favors, undor the most unfavorable conditiona When the reporter was ushered into the abode of the epirits | Dr. Slade welcomed him, but stated that he had been up all night with a sick child, and was very Wi from Qeryous exhaustion. Subsequent inquiry proved that be had told ¢ me story to all visors tor months atatime. The room in which the séance was to be g'Ven was quito light, having three windows init, In the centre of the room was a square, painted table, tnd near to tt four chairs, with stuffed seats and backs, He requested the reporter to piace his hands tn the temtre of the tabie and join those of the Doctor. This being done, the medium began to draw bia breath §=quickly between his closed teeth, and be exclaimed, ‘Ob! ob, dear; ah!? On being asked what was the mater he “The magnetic influence was so strong, and that, hav- Ing constant communication witn the spirits, affucted bia nerves.'’ Thero was ne doubt of his being nervous and anxious, for he seemed to fear that somo unfavor- able report would be made of his proceedings. Knocks vpon the table were produced and eral questions were propounded, but ‘tho conditions were bad” and no satisfuctory answers were vbtained. AN ERRATIC CHAIR, Suddenly the Doctor's contortions became disagroe- able to witness, and during one very severe strain upon his nerves a chair which had stood near unto the table ram across the room. “There, soe thut,”? said the medium. i “ly that a common occurrence???’ said the reporter. “Oh, yes,” repiied the medium. “At times the spirits very unruly, They will knock upon this table apparently with hammers, and turn over all the furniture in the room.’? The movement made by the Doctor when this chair rav away led the reporter to beleve that he gave it a sly kick. THE SLATS. The medium then produced a small slate, about aight by five inches. He said he did not know whether She spirits would write upon it. Sometimes they would, tnd at others they reiused to pencila line. He broke small piece of siate pencil and juid it upon the Slate. He placed the slate a litle way under the table with oue hand and kept his other. hand upon the tabie holding visitor's. The latter's hands, being con- Unually required tu this position im order tu produce magnetisin suilicient to ran the spiritual machine, pre- Vented any careful examination of what was being fone bencath the tavio. The minute the je Was beueath the mahogany a scratching sound was heard, and in a lew seconds the Doctor put the slate on the lable und said, ‘Have they written anything? They bad, and ‘twas th investigate and you shall jest ol There was one peculiarity about this bashes fue small piece of pencil, not much larger than a pin’s head, had u tine point to it, and the pencil point ro- Bed at the ond of the line or cross of the t in stigate,”’ as though spirit had crossed the t last and left the piece of pencil exactly at the end of the tine made last, He exhibited both sides of the slate before putting it dutof sight cach time preceding a message, When the slate was beneath the table thore was aa expres- don upon the medium’s face as though he was en- 4 in doing something requiring thought and attev- rarely spoke while the spir ound. On being asked whether the spirits ever Wrote upon the slate when not under the tal Doctor replied, It was only y {when the conditions happened to be very iavorable) bat the pencil didats work in full view of everybody.”” He relaied what wonJertul things had been done in she times past, but the day of this reportorial investi. gation happened to be an unusually bad day for spir- hual attendance. While talking in this way asmall nond bell came out from uader the table, went up to the ceiling and fell upon the floor, “There,” said Mr. S| “they seem to be desirous of catting up. Soi nes they are 'y playfal.’’ “Did you feel anything touch you? ‘The reporter did fee! something shake the bottom of his pantaloons legs, but he resolved to tell a story, and taid, “No,” at which the Doctor looked very mucii dis- woes for he evidently endeavored to produce this eltect. One more message in answer to some question was produced upon the slate under the sam ditions as under the Lor, but, unlike Dr, Lankester, ned from using any unpieasant measures to decide the medium’s houesty aud power. Bes any attemps to enlorce conditions drove the TAR ACCORDEON. Dr. Slade had an accoraeon—a very old rattle-trap afair, with half the notes gune. He beld the beilows valve of the instrument m one hand and placed tue keyboard beneath the table. The spirits imme- diately grasped the other end and vivlently opened and closed the bellows, at tho same time a sound of running the keynotes was heard, Asin the case of the tate the requirement necessitating the rier keep- ing his band in the middle of the square tavie pre- vented apy examination beneath it. Any movement ‘ofthe band destroyed the magnetic communication and the work of the spirits ceased, After several musical exbibitions a spirit gave the instrument a blow which knocked 1$ out of the medium's hand and broke the keyboard. Dr. Slade remarked that tho spirit was very piayiul. It would be difficultio ac- count for this last manifestation, unless some hand came up from beneath the floor. There was no machinery nor springs about the instrument, and the medium had but one hand to ase in its mani tion, Itis not reasonable to suppose the medium could manipulate the keys of the rdeon with his fect, particalariy as he had boots on, The most riaiculous portion of the exhibition, peruaps, was the conclasion,. when, without any premonition, the Doctor became suddenly rigid, arose to his fect and DELIVERED AN ORATION, It appeared that some celebraied Indian chief had taken possession of tim. In di stentoriau tones the chiefspoke, He advised 4 cw amination of the religion of Spiritualism, By watching and in- quiry much would be revealed to those who went avout tho work in a proper spirit, Then followed a sermun, in which the evil of manantl the goodness of Gud formed the theme, and then, bidding the reporter Jareweil, ihe Indian feturned to his happy hunting ground and Dr. Slade, opening bis eyes, said ; “Did I say anything? On being told that he made a jong speech ho re- marked that he knew nothing of st. The spirit often ook possession of him to reveal things to the world. This last exhibition was not flattering. It made one imagine the Doctor coucluded there was no limit to buman credulity. NEWS IN THE CITY.

GOVERNMENT BONDS, The dealings su this cepartment during the past week have been characterized by greater firmness and ap advance ranging irom 44 to X% percent, The ed- vantage of permanent investment io this class of s curities bas been trequentiy pointed out im this col- umn, because their stability and safety will always make them favorites with capitalists on both sides of the Atlantic, Institutions and individuals largely availed themselves of the recent decline to buy, and at times the market was active. RAILWAY BONDS. There was also a good demand tor first class railway mortgages, and the confidence of the purchasing pub- lic was strongly illustrated by the sharp advance which was made in many tnstances, This i¢ doubtle: due to the fact that the gross earnings of a majority of the raulroads which report to the Stock Exchange « | ereater in 1876" than io 1875. Twonty-fve lines in- | creased their receipts, while ouly ten report a reduction. An early advance of rates ts looked for, and the fceling among speculators, if ong may judg trom the more hopeful tone of conversation, is sng- gestive of an improved market, The magnitude of recent article in an English magazine, from which we extract the statement that “as reeontly as 1845 the j total capital sunk !n railways throughout the world | was only about $570,000,000, of which Great Britain | had spont some $20,000,000 and America $90,000,000. | ! At tho present timo the railways of Great Britain alone represent a nominal outlay of nearly $3,280,000,000 and those of the United States $3,600,000,000.

Owing to two reasons. ret, “that our ball players have obtained therein so high a degree of perfection, and second, that our people, of all classes of socinty, | so heartily enjoy a hotly contested game, it is justly | called the American game. Each season, fora number | of years past, national associations havo been formed by leading clubs throughout the whole country, for the purpose of playing with each other for the cham- pionship. This centennial ycar has not been an excep- tion, A national league war formed for it, but its rules restricted membership toa single club from any oneeity. This system of exclusi was not one which could well popularize the organization, so its movements were critically watched, Whenever, thero- fore, anything out of the usual course was soen ina Jeague game the cry aroge that members thereot wore throwing away or trying to lose the game, Whether tho charge was or was not well founded is nota matter to be herein considered. Tho league com- mitted several grave errors of judgment, which will be noticed—but outsiders can expross an opinion thereon without charging upon the piayers that they have been designedly corrupt. It was a mistake to exclude from the league any good club whieh might desire to join, That there were good clubs among those rejected is proven by the fact that every one of the league clubs, at some period or cther during last summer or autumn, was beaten by a non-league club. It was an error to charge balf a dollar for admission to each visitor who wished to witness a game, av the meagre financial results attest—because, for nothing, about as interesting games could be seen, nearly every fair afternoon, at Prospect Park, y tone od and in open fields near nd large vil jage iu which to the gen closed. As, howe who will not listen to wholesome advice, there ts uo likelitood of the league, if it survivor, or any club of whieh it was formed, ever again charging lity cents as | the gate fee. ! THY NEW MOVEMEXT. Latterly a number of frat class base ball clubs, which ruled out of the league last season, have con- fed to organize a National Association, with well Any club of gos pl with cach other club From this new movement good results may de. expected. Having scen the errora of the leaghe, these men can guard nut their repetition, It i an enterprise ag! which will be patronized by the people everywher who expressed s0 much disvatisiaction with the league during the season of 1876 as to refuse to encoura, ee thom by witnessing their contesta, If the new orgao- ization shall be properly conducted—and it is bat fair to presume that it will be until, if ever, the contrary appears—and shall justly excapo charges of crooked playing, their edvent he arena will be gladly wel- comed, Ii, however, they shall become mdifferent to tair criticism and adopt the ‘don’t care’’ manner of playing, defying popular opinion by arousing the indig- nation of the adtairers of a square game, then 1877 will witness the funeral of the popularity of the game of ‘base ball in this coantry. For the sake of their own reputations, and forthe credit of the game they pro- fess to love the who aro about engaging in the and righty 01 euforee good rules io genuine, they are, and will continue (0 be, encouraged to persevers good th: im all parts of the country, who desire, abo things, upright conduet upon the ball field and an honest game.
