The brief sketclies of individual character that follow, were, with a few exceptions, written automatically by the hand of Dr. John C. Grinneil, of Newport, R. I., in the summer and au- tumn of 1869; in the presence of the undersigned. Those with an asterisk, were obtained in Feb., 1870, in the same way. During the process of writing, the medium was generally in his normal state of mind excepting that a mist was thrown by spirit power over his vision, so that he was unable to decipher what was indited, that, as was alleged, the matter might not be af- fected by the action of his own mind. The sketches taken exceed fifteen hundred in ail, (a portion of which are reserved for a future edition) and with the exception of those otherwise designated, purport to have been written under the control and direction of the spirit of the late Stephen B. Chase, of Newport, R. I., who was a man of a true and noble nature, and that of a Narragansett Indian, whose proper name was Opplahehota, but was called "Shanky" by the whitjes, from his speed of foot. A sketch of Chase's earth character and spirit condition as seen from the after-life as well as that of the Indian's and medium's, will be found under their appropriate lettering, and I think they are all correctly given. To obtain the sketches, I was obliged to sit with the medium for the space of from one to three hours daily, for some one hundred and twenty days. At snch times as the mind of the medium was calm and composed, and not disturbed by outside influences, he would write fiom fifteen to thirty at a sitting, and on one occasion he wrote forty-one. On that and some other favorable days, the medium wrote rapidlv and pretty correctly without apparent effort. On other days, when his mental organism was disturbed from internal or external causes, he wrote but very few, and those indistinct, and full of repetition. I have, however, in compiling been very careful to retain the substance of these together with the exact words that are used to give point to the meaning. The reader will probably perceive that some of the terms used, such as "moral" and "cunning," are generally intended to be applied in their most enlarged [sig- nification, whilst religion is almost always used to express an outward observance. The char- acters given under the Indian influence are copied word for word, exactly as given. When I first commenced raking the characters, I wrote down names of individua,ls as they occurred to my mind with little or no regard to their order, on blank sheets of paper. Alter leaking some hundreds in this way, I found the communications were getting too lengthy for practical use, anct cuni- menced writing names as they occurred to me on small slips of paper prepared for the purpose, and for convenience wrote the names of the individuals I wished given, one on each side of the paper. Perhaps some two or three hundred chai-acters were written under these circumstan- ces; and among these I am led to suppose there may have been a lew- important mis- takes or transpositions made, though I think as a general thing, the character of the individ- uals given are as correct as can be obtained from history or otherwise. Whilst writing under these particular heads, I observed that the medium often hesitated, and turned his paper over to look at the name on the other side. I finally asked why this was done, and then the control- ling influence for the first time told me that the names operated as talismans to draw the spirit indicated, and their close juxtaposition caused such a mingling or transposition of their influences that be found it hard to separate them, asking me at the same time to write the names only on one side of each piece of paper. I did so afterward, and for convenience sake would write several in advance and lie them down together; but this mode was also soon ob- jected too on like grounds as the other, and I was requested in future not to record any name until the moment I handed it to the medium. I did so, and found from that time forward that the communications flowed more freely, and as I think, more correctly, than they had done as a general thing before. After I had exhausted such names of interest as occurred to me, I had recourse to a very terse Biographical dictionary for a supply, and was throughout exceedingly careful to say nothing to the medium that might influence the comraunirations, sim- ply writing the names as they appear in the following pages, and verbally giving the nation of the person asked after when it was within my knowledge. This is all that was required by the controlling influence, which requested that nothing more should be added. To this rule I adhered throughout, txcepting in the instances of Csesar and Lucretia Borgia. The medium had never read a history or biography, except the Bible, in his life, and had probably never heard even the name pronounced of one in twenty of the historical persons asked after. I subjoin some facts relating to the medium's hfe and occupation furnished by himself, and will merely add that 1 know from personal knowledge, that many of the facts he relates as regards his former dreadful decrepid state and his 'seemingly miraculous cures of cancers and other maladies are literally true, and can be verified if necessary by judicial testimony. Dr. John C. Grinnell was born Dec. 15th, 1831, of very poor parentage, in Hampton, Wind- ham County, Connecticut. His father died before be was eight years old, when he was placed in a cotton factory to work to help maintain the widowed family. At fourteen he went to la- bor on a farm, where he worked until his seventeenth year, when he was taken sick with ty- phus fever, and was confined for about nine months before he was able to be sent to his mother ■who was then struggling against poverty in Rhode Island. In a letter to the writer of this, dated Feb. 26, 1870, Dr. Grinnell says: "The sickness and medicine produced inflammatory rheumatism which rendered me nearly helpless. The calomel I took caused dropsy of the blood, a stiffness of the joints, and I was growing worse all the time under the medical treatment, until nearly every bone and joint in my body was drawn from its location. At the end of about six years treatment under the old school practice, the doctors left me with my limbs and feet so swollen that every time I moved it seemed as if my limbs would burst, and I was not able to get up at all or move without help. ]\Iy heels were drawn nearly into my back, and my head and chin drawn down to my chest. My left arm became helpless and very sore. My right hand was doubled up so that I could not use either of them. I did not have ray clothes on for nearly a year, as my flesh was so sore I could not bear their weight. In ihis state I remained until the good angels came and deliv- ered me. Before they came I had grown to be a hard, cold atheist, feeling that the God of the universe, if there was one, had left me to suffer, and this caused my unbelief But in 1856, the power or influence of unseen angels came upon me, at firsc by tipping the stand, and then by controlling my hand to wrife. Before that I could not feed myself; but after they had thus controlled my hand a few times, I could use it to cut my food and eat with. Not long after a spirit purporting to be 'Samuel of old,' came and controlled my hand to write a letter to a lady residing in Fall River, by the name of Phebe Shelling, in which he told her that if she would come to Newport she could help me. The day after this she came to me. We were entire strangers to each other, and 1 had never heard of her only through the spirit communication. As soon as she entered the door, 'old Samuel' entranced her and commenced to operate on me, saying that he could and would make me wa4k. This was about five o'clock in the afternoon, and she worked on me about twenty minutes, and the next morning I got up and dressed my- self, which was something I had not done before for seven years. 'Old Samuel' said that if I would place myself under his directions, he would, thiouoh her instrumentality, soon haye me walking about. I concluded to do so, and went to Fall River where Mrs. Shelling could see me every day, and in seventeen weeks she straightened my limbs so that I measured thirteen inches in height more than I did when she began, and she made me walk without crutches, which I had not done for many years, and I could feravel nearly as well as ever. Mrs. Shelling having a family of small children to attend to which she could not neglect, gave up her gift of healing. I remained in gooi condition for about four years, when I wa- attacked with paralysis which has obliged me to use a cana and crutch ever since. As yet the spirits have not been able to restore me, but they prom'se to help me as soon as I get into a condition sufficiently harmonious to receive their iafluence fully. While I was under Mrs. Shelliag's influ- ence I was made clairvoyant, and could see the different diseases of persons who chanced to come into the room and often when they were passing the house in the street, and could tell how and where they were affected. But being ignorant of all the laws of physiology, and remedies, I did not for some months apply my powers to examine into disease. But finally, the spirit of 'old Sammel' and others controlled me to examine and find remedies in the vegetable kingdom and I practised for years in Fall River without any remuneration except the consolation of my being made an instrument to benefit hundreds of people, and I have continued to practice with little remuneration up to the present time. I have during the last fourteen years kept an account of about thirteen thousand patients I have examined, and have not all down on my book, and I do not think there has been to exceed ten out of the whole number who have not expressed themselves satisfied with their diagnosis. I have had almost every phase of mediumship, but examining and healing seems to be my es- pecial gift. You ask me about my education and reading. I do not remember of ever going to school three months in my life, and I can say with truth that with the exception of the Bible, I never read a biography or history in my life. In fact, my mind cannot confine itself closely to any kind of reading. I practised healing seven years before I ever looked into a book, on bot- any, or physiology, and I never now think of consulting any medical or other book for' healing as my spirit doctors are always in attendance when needed. I have had perhaps as good suc- cess in healing as most clairvoyants, but of myself I claim to have very little knowledge or wis- dom, but rely entirely upon the.higher influences that control my organism. I have operated on eighty-one cases of cancer, and have seventy-nine certificates of euros be- ing effected, which I will show any who wish to see them. There are several cases in the vicin- ity of Newport that you yourself know about, among thoni Mrs. Hannah Alleu, from whose breast I took a cancer as large as a tea-cup; Mr. John R. Peckham,from whose under Up I took 6 two about the size of walnuts ; Mr. William Howland, from whose nose I took one about as larj;e as a marble; Miss liogers, from whose wrist I took one about the size of a butternut. I have never filled but in two instances. One of these oases was that of Mrs. C whom you also know. It had five heads, and they were all healed except one which was about as large as a nickle cent, when she lefc m ; at Newport to go home. When she came to me at Fall River afterwards,* it was not bigger thiu the end of my little finger, and the artery that buist was in the centre of this head." I am well acquainted with this last nani'id case that Dr. G. sets down a^ a failure. Mrs. C called on me, saying that she wanted to raise twenty-five dollars to pay a doctor to cut out a cancer on her breast that had already been operated on in that way twice, and had ex- hausted all her means. I told her that surgical operations on cancerous tumors could not possi- bly afford any other than temporary relief. She said that she was aware of that and knew that she must soon die, but thought if she could have«it cut out once more it would enable her to work a few weeks or months more for her aged father and mother who lived with her and were both past work. I finally recommended her to go and see Dr. Grinnell. She did so and the controlling spirit told her that as af{gravated as her case was he thought she might be cured. She accordingly took board near Dr. Grinnell's, a few persons contributing to pay all expenses. I occaolonally visited the doctor whilst he was operating and saw the cancer several times. It was at first the most revolting thing to look at that can be imagined, and, as I remember, covered a space as big as a small saucer with several angry looking heads. After a few week's treatment these began to disappear, and a new coat ot flesh came over the diseased por- tion covered with a thin transparent skin. When I last saw Mrs. C ihe appeared nearly well, and insisted upon going home. The influence tried to prevent her doing so, telling her that the muscles and blood-vessels were very weak and would not bear being strained. She refused however to be advised and went to work, and the consequence was that a blood vessel broke as was foreseen. The fact is, the cancer itself was about cured, and no doubt soon would have been entirely well had Mrs. C listened to advise. I know of several other cancers cured by Dr. G. Mrs. H. Allen, a case something like Mrs. C 3, who was, as she told me, cured in about three weeks, after several other doctors had failed. Mr, Rowland's case I know pretty well. For many months I had been advising him to attend to an angry tumor on his nose, telling him that it would be his death if he let it alone much longer. He delayed until it grew very troublesome, and then as he informs me, started with a determination to let Dr. G. operate on it. On his way he happened to meet a physician and told him the object he had in view. The doctor remarked that if he would come to him after he had tot through with the quacks he would cut it out for him. Mr. H. however persevered, and in a short time the cancer was successfully removed by Dr. G. This was nearly a year ago, and Mr. Howlaud's visage is yet fiec from even a sear. I have h'.'ld sceances with scores of mediums, but I think I never knew one who had a greater diversity of gifts, or who hved in closer rapport with the spirit world than Dr. Grinnell. With him the two worlds seem almost merged together, and hg converses about as readily with the denizens of the one as the other, passing into and out of the trance state with astonishing fdciliry. Far, similks of his handwriting, when under influence of spirits, are given on a previous page ; owing to the distorted state of his hands he has to write with a thumb and one finger only. Newport R.

He was a true man at heart and had many high and noble traits of character, but lived for ambition, which in a large degree killed his better nature. He was a great warrior and every way a powerful man. He wears a long loose robe with large gold and silver straps on his shoulders and a three-cornered hat. He is seated on a dark bay horse, and holds a spear in one hand, and a broad sword hangs by his side. He has on a pair of skin, cavalry boots, and holds a red and white flag in his hand, with a death head or skeleton face represented upon it.

He is rather dark, spiritually, but is nevertheless a truly noble, good, generous spi- rited man. He has a good intellect, and is a cool calculator, and is in a fair state of spiritual progress. Baroxius. a cheerful looking man, but very cunning and deceitful, and one who would seek to please those who were over him, without regard to prmciple or the means used. In fact he represents himself as having been a very un- principled man, who did not believe in any of the relioious forms he practiced, though his love of power and name led him to deceive the very best of the people. He was inclined to rule in his pleasant way, but was naturally very bad at heart, and would even murder behind the cur- tain, if necessary to accomplish his ends. He bas a large, round, >ipunning looking face, and was highly perceptive, far-seeing and wise. He wears a dark pink robe, ornamented with little silver bells around the skirts, and a hat that fits close around the head, but is large and ful- i higher up, with a gold braid around the top of ^ it. He stands in a graceful attitude, and has great power of speech, but has not made much progress in spirit life. Bathsheba. An angelic-looking person, with powerful perception, strong individuality, and a high top head. There is a soft, bright circle of silvery light around her head and face, and she wears a wreath of beautiful feathers made in crown-like shape. She has a long face, high cheek bones, a large nose, long hair, and her countenance has a very smiling, lovely ex- pression. She has on a blue linen robe, a large purple mantle and beautiful sandals, worked with shells. She has a large scroll in her right hand, full of queer looking characters, like the following — {SeefacSimilie.) She has made great progress in spirit life.

She is in fact a beautiful angel of light, who will illuminate many a dark place on earth, ' if permitted to enter. Richard Baxter. A highly intellectual ; and intelligent man, with a very down-cast lock, who was awfully fooled when on earth, and has carried his folly into spirit life. He had a won- , derful tear of his great parent, but he finds that . the true idea of a Saint's rest is not to sing : psalms in heaven, but to go to work and re- ; deem people out of the nonsense he led them in-i to". It is now his mission to get the Saints he made out of their false rest, and teach them how to work for progress. He has, however, made fair headway for progress in spirit life. Dr. James Beattie.

A woman of a very nice, elegant form, and a well-developed intellect. She has a large forehead, a full, round face, a well-forraed nose and a full bosom. She is about five feet high, and wears a full blue skirt, hanging down to the feet, and a mantle on her shoulders, worked with red, white, blue and yellow silk, and she has a silver band round her head, bordered with gold. She has made great progress in spirit life. St. Bernard. A truly noble and upright man, who lived a pure, true life. He has a powerful mind, high spirituality, strong benevo- lence, and the deepest sympathy. He was good and noble by nature, and would have baen so, if he had not been in the church. He may well be a holy Saint, for he has progressed in the spirit world to celestial life. Note.

Beziers. As me's sees him, he he's all covered over with fire. Him sparkles like silver waters. Hims heart looks like diamonds in big quartz rock. Him's shines like big red rubiss. Him's spirit he's like the big shiny gold mines. Him's he's in the big high spirit, and him's he's much good cheery. Bias. A very eccentric man, of high intel- lect, full perception, and profound wisdom, learning and knowledge. He has great intelli- gence and reasoning force, and was full of method and plan. There is a bright silvery star, resting on his head, and he has a most pure and celestial spirit nature. Count Bismark. A very strong, dignified, bold man, with large causality, perception, am- bition and determination, a powerful intellect and a far-seeing, forcible mind. He has great ability, is a clear reasoner, and has a singular completeness of nature, but is cold and selfish. He has, however, made good progress in spirit. Black Hawk. A big chief, but mighty much pale face in him. No mighty much red man. He big chief; he big strong chief. A big chief on war trail. A mighty much know- ing Indian, but be no clear red man. He good treat him well ; but he big kill no treat him well. He has made great progress in spirit life. The Black Prince. A cunning foxy man, of a cold, cruel, blood-thirsty, iron-like nature. He had large perception, intuition, and strong individuality, and was externally very reli- gious, but not moral. He was self-conceited and had large self-esteem, and was very hard and tyrannical. He has made rather slow pro- gress in spirit life. Sir William Blackstone. A far-seeing man who well represents wisdom, knowledge, intelligence and mental power. He has a full intellect and a large full forehead, and. he was a great critic and a most wonderful scholar. He is a deep reasoner and a profound philoso- pher, and altogether, was one of the wisest law-making men of the world. He has pro- gressed to the seventh sphere in spirit life. Hugh Blair. A very hard old soldier of the cross, who is at present in Elder Knapp's boiling hell of conscientiousness. He has a powerful intellect, but was very tyrannical in his views, and severely hard on all who did not believe as he did. He has a powerful brain, but a great part of his religion and reverence was expended in putting his neighbor into hell, from the pains of which, only himself and followers were to escape. He has not made much progress iu spirit life. Bishop Blanchett. As we see it on the ; roll the last syllable is spelled "cheutt." He j, is a very tyrannical, powerful and influential man, of great intelligence and intellectual strength and a lion-like will. He is not a man who will take a high sphere in the spirit world , and it will be a' long tiuie before one in his con- dition can rise much in ihe progressive scale. Boadicea, (Queen of Britain). A woman of deep intellect and good perception and intuition. She had some noble t'-aits of char- acter and did a great deal of go-^d for her peo- ple, but was of a hard, revengeful nature, and like most of her day, tyrannical and fond of wielding power.

I want you to recognize me more in thought. Tiy to feel that I am ever thine own loved guest in thoughts that come spaikling within thy soul'. I am waitinjr to meet thee in thine own com- munion, — waiting where thy spirit may catch the cadence of my soul, — waiting for the time when thy thoughts will flow next to mine with- out an intermediate wave,— waiting for thy spirit to enter gently into my own. The finest emotions of the spirit have no utterances. The sweetest interchange of thoughts are the si- lent idflowing from soul to soul. Dost not thou feel how near I am at this moment to thee? Our spirits now embrace. Were it not lor the atmosphere of bliss that surrounds you, I could not come in such near and dear rapport. Thy spirit opens its welcoming arras, and I swiftly fly to thy fond embrace. But, Oh, how little can I now give thee of my spiiit life! the bless- ed fulness is yet to come. Then, Oh then, we will have such rosy hours, we will have such dewy thoughts! They will fall like pearls uniting our spirits. We will wander amid such azure bliss, we will garland our souls with such love blossoms, that we cannot meet but in sweetness and beauty. Together we will trav- el over the fields of thought in dual joy; we will wind our course along through forests of beauty, sparkling with streams of bliss. Our joys shall all be twin-born beauties ! Thy hap- piness! will rest on mine, and mine will be thy soul's bright duplicate. Can you fail e'en now to feel my love? Dost not thou see how deep it lies, hovv broad the stream it flows to thee? O! let its waters bear thee to our home! Come, come, God bids me send this gentle stream to bear thy soul to heaven. He creat- ed me for thee, a fountain bright and clear, and thus thy spirit tastes his love and goodness. "Fear not, doubt not, dear one. I am not a thing of fancy made — a fabricated angel love, but a true existing principle, a tangible being, a iivino; soul in unison with thine, waff in »• heavenly breezes to thy life, to bear me back thy joys, thy woes, that I may share them all, and cradle thy spirit in the motion of my love, where I can lull it to a sweet repose. (Prayer), Oh thou guardian of all created love, who hast allied my spirit to this dear wave of life, guard thou my soul's emotions, and from thy great throbbing heart of all life, flow out thy spirit, and enable us, thy children, to bear the current of life which thou hast giv- I en u?, brightly through this mighty system of existence, and, as it passes through our souls, return it back to thee untainted. Oh, keep thou me a healthy, moving wave, to bear thy softening love down to creation's woes, to waft to the shadows of earth, the dew-drop^ of thy light, to tint the midnight with a beam of day, and in my acts to sing to thee, thou central soul of all creation's love and wisdom, some grateful lay of melody and praise. (signed) , Fanny. ' ' Sept. 15th, 1869.— My theme to-day is Love, the reigning queen of all that's best in human nature — the crown imperial of the soul, and the highest attributes of Deity. " 'Tis all unfolded to celestial light— 'Tis always blooming to the child of right." Love, in its truthfalnes, is the spiritual es- sence of purity, gathered through the experi- ences of earth, and the attribute in which celes- tial spirits gather and repose. It is a plant so beautiful, so subhme, that in its growth it reaches out beyond the selfish walls of clay and shines in its sweetness upon every neigh- boring soul. It mounts the highest framework of man's device. Ye cannot stay its progress, for Divinity hath planted it, and spirits and seraphs prune its beautious growth. Long may its beauty fill our souls. Forever may its per- /"ection and sweetness abide. It is a plant des- tined for eternity. There is not a human sou 1 without it. There is not a place where it does not dwell. It grows in the conservatories of the celestials; it shines over the bowers of seraphs, and is planted by the den of the demon. Trav- erse creation and we find Love everywhere a native plant. It encircles and fills all worlds; it winds in spiral beauty about the centre and eircumference of all firmaments and systems. It is the life flower of the universe. It sends out its elements of divinity to the poor ar.drich alike, and in its glorious beauty it will yet merge-all finite sufl'ering in eternal bliss. 'Tis my soul's attribute; 'tis thy soul's attribute; 'tis creation's sweetest blossom. Let us take this attribute at meeting; let us take it at parting, and let us wear it forever. Dear one, I come again to-day to cheer up thy soul, and bring to thee the sweet aff'tctiou of life. My work of love often calls me to visit the gay assembly, and mingle with the busy throng, but its dearest mission is to go to the unfrequented hovels of the poor, there to trans- plant consoling and higher truths. Yes, when you come to our spiritual home, we will go together and soothe the sorrowing; we will carry them spiritual balm; we will bathe 124 t heir suffering souls with waters that flow from sed assurance to me is ever sweet to hear the elysian founts.

It shall one; together we will bear one cross, and to- jet flow unbroken, in sweet and heavenly gether we will stand under the crown of eter- strains. And is not thy faith now riveted with nal life.

Sorrow is but the shadow ot the wing of happiness; sunshine and shadow live together. Let every one in the earth life repose and rest in the thought that peace and harmony flow through creation, aftd every spirit must find its legitimate part of bliss A. p. H. The following is a fair specimen of several communications, that were written by Dr. John C. Grinnell, purporting to come from Mary, sister of the above. Oct. 2nd, 1869. Dear father, — Anna has come to-day to help me bring to your soul the sweet lilies of life, the unfolding of my soul's progress. Ever may my words flow into thy soul dear father with celestial softness and glad- den thy heart with eternity's love. Fast are the currents of joy flowing into thy soul and rapidly is the stream of time bearing thee on to spiritual bliss. Unnumbered are the garlands that are weaving for thee, and as often as thy spirit changes a new one descends upon thy brow. I feel to-day buoyant with love and happiness. My soul seems bursting with afiec- tion, and would bear a wave of joy to all the dear ones of earth. I would that my earth relatives could wear such garlands as encircle my head. I would that the rays of the love I feel for all might shine in every heart ! And how shall 1 bear my best afiections to them ? How shall I waft to their spirits a knowledge of the loving arms that are waiting to clasp fond hearts in their embrace. With outstretch- ed arms 1 welcome them all, and we will send angels with sheltering wings to keep them in the path of love. Dear father I hope your earth life will be long enough to leave many grand thoughts, long enough I trust to turn many a benighted mind from darkness to light, long enough to leave many once barren spirits en- grafted with love, so that when thy spirit comes home there will be towering monuments of affection erected to thee in many souls and hearts in earth life. O, there are so many things that thy soul demands, that you may be joyous and happy here and on earth. Dear fa- ther how multiplied are the avenues through which we reach the soul. The full depth of thy soul's love and affection is for the use of all thy angel friends,- and we all stand upon it even, whilst the gate of benevolence is ever open for thy entrance. I -^ome and fill your soul with love ! Let that suffice for thee and me and give to those who need thine own. If I bring thee joy enough for us to feed upon, let it suffice and give the joy to the mourners of earth. If thy own spirit has a moonbeam of light and I come adding many rays, give thy beams to darkness, and I will come again bearing more to you; but part thou with thy ray before I come so that thy soul give not from a superfluity but of a scantiness, for the deed that is registered high- est in heaven is that where he that hath but one rose blooming in his garden plucks it from the stem and gives it to his brother who has none. Is not the virtue of such a on* higher than that of another who parts with only one rose out of an abundance. Is it sacrifice to bestow from out an overflow of bliss? No rather should we part with the last beam of hope to light our brother home, than to tarry for the moment when myriad rays illumine out own pathway. The soul that drinks only from the fountain of self, finds but insipid waters. The drops must flow from heart to heart to keep the waters pure and bright. As silent waters are dark and turbid, so are souls that live only for self. But like the gushing, bound- ing, rippling brook are souls that send theip streams of love coursing through their neigh- bor's hearts. Even the smallest rill is made purer by its ceaseless flow. Dear father let our spirits join, and rove away with me in some elysian land of bliss where we may gather bright, brilliant flowers in presence of which the glorious light of day would fade. We have long been wandering amid the buds, let us now take the full-blown flower bursting with its own beauty and fragrance. We have wander- ed long by little rills, now let us roam the mighty ocean of love where thoughts go mov- ing on to shores immortal. Let us grasp the bright conception and plume our spirits to the bright odeals and away, away. And sip from the nectar Of angels bright streams, And fold our freed pinions In heavenly dreams. Strike the lyre, let angels' fingers, Tune thy soul for heavenly choirs, Lovingly the soft touch lingers, 130 O er the spii-it breathing wires. ingly gaze on the faces of thy loved ones in '"'luS.l.rr't^Srt'l't^afur"' l^-™- ^ut with this of joy I woald bring Like some zephyr stealing o'er us, a sigh to earth- Yes, dear father, dear mother Bringing hearts to God again. says she would have you go hand in hand with Bow thy soul in adoration, i, • xi, ^ r i ot. i j i Mortals bow before the throne, ^^^ '^ *^^ ^^^^ ^^ ^o^«- ^he would have you Sing this song to eveiy nation, seek the lowly of earth, the dark, the dreary 'Tis not for thyself alone. souls that wander m the ways of error, and Dearfather, should the soul of gratitude for- i^^^ ^^^^ ^^ jigl^j. ^^^ ^ruth, that they too get the hand tbat beckoned it to heaven? no ! ^^^ ^e brought up to a state of angel purity. no! should the bounding brook forget the Work on in thy strength, in this labor of love smilmg, mossy banks through which it wends for humanity.

LIFE INSURANCE COMPAJJY. G. HILTON SCRIBNER, President. SIDNEY W. CEOFUT, Secretary. HEADLEY & CLARY, Managers. N. E. BEAU OH— 32 Washington St., Boston The success of the Empire has been unequalled in this or any other country. It is trne; and because the features of the £mpire are liberal aud yet strong. All policies are non-forfeitable. All policies are incontestable for any cause excepting All restrictions on Travel and Residence removed, and no permits required, experience and statistics proving them to be unnecessary, while they are vex- atious and expensive to the insured ; and no extra charge for Women, or any class of ordinary risks. JNo accumulation of interest, increasing annual premiums. Dividends on the Progressive Plan, and also upon the Guarantee interest plan. These are declared an- nually. The Empire stands alone in the simple justice of incontestable policies in case of suicide, death for crime, or by accidental cause of any kind. It has also adopted Massachusetts law in fuU. The Empire is under the control of men of the highest eharacter, and ofiers special attractions to clergymen who desire personal insurance, or to act as agents wholly or in connection with their oflacial work. N, Brougliton, Jr. late Depositary of the American Tract Society, Boston, is Special Agent for the city and vicinity ; and Miss S. B. Packard, formerly principal of Oread Institute, Worcester, Mass., is Superintendent of Ladies' Agencies. In- surances can be effected by correspondence. WHAT SAYS THE PRESS! "The Empire has had a remarkable success. It presents strong features, and it is believed has no rival in its claims to public coniidence."— Boston Journal. "This company is a great success; the result of able, economical, and reliable management. The Empire has no superior in the country."— jBo^ton, JPost. "An excellent Company."— .^iow's Herald. A very successful i:)ompanj.—Congregationalist. "It is with peculiar pleasure that we speak of this new candidate for public favor. We knew many years since the President of the Company. We knew him to be a man of energy, of character, of superior business ability, and above all else a successful man m whatever he undertakes. The truth is, the Com- pany has adopted the best improvements of the day in its organization." To show the working of the guarantee interest plan take an example, "t^'or instance, a man is thirty-six years old, ami insures for ^1000. His premium is |41 a year for fifteen years, amounting in all to $615 ; addmg compound interest brings it up to #1000, the faceof the Policy. Then he ceases to pay, and the Company begin to pay him in return a cash dividend of $60 to $70 per year. The benefit of this will -be apparent at a glance."— A^. E. Ins. Gazette.

The constantly increasing demand and growing popularity of the Peerless Soap amply testifies to its appreciation by the public. The proprietor, though no egotist, takes pleasure in acknowledging that he is highly flattered with the success of his endeavors to educate the American public to the use of the higher grades of soap as em- bracing economy in time, labor and money. In consideration of the fact that the PEERiiESS Soap is manufactured by strictly scientific princi- ples, and of the very best materials, so combined a to render it highly detersive, without resulting in the slightest injury to the most delicate fabric or hand, the proprietor has no hesitancy in asserting it to be fa#ahead of any other brand in the market for all purposes of a Family Soap.
