I gave up all hopes of being restored to health agmn. 1 continued thus to suffer on from 1844 to 18i0, a period of six years.

G. Reddout, has address ed us a communication setting forth thai | having given two years' labors to the ! subject of spiritualism, he has conceived j ideas exhaustive of the arcana of knowl edge, human and divine. His expenses have reached the alarming sum of nin< hundred dollars, doubtless most of ii paid in tho shape ol fees to the spirits The Pythia, regarding Washington a: the spot above all others requiring th< presence of a prophet, have directed hin to repair hither, which lie has according ly done. We append his letter to us, an< call especial attention to that portioi which exemplifies that cold contemp which patient merit from the unwoi tin takes : Washington, Feb. 12, 1*55. Spirituality explains the following : It reveals what Heaven is, and how i is to be obtained. It explains why these spiritual iaani flotations aic more common within a few years than they were formerlv. The Spirit gives the reison'why mar.i festations are sometimes given, and a other times denied. It defines the mind of man, the law un der which it is given, an 1 explains tin reason for the differences of mental capa cities. It defines hin. righteousness, and ter fection. It explains how sin will he doneaway, and how mankind will be made perfect. It explains mesmerism, clairvoyance, j and other similar mysterious manifesta ; tious that have not been weil under* ! stood. I It gives the law under which human beings are created, and the extent to which they are punished. It describes the sun. and gives the rea son why it presents a different appear ance from the planets that revolve around it. ! It explains the Old and New Testa i ments, ami reveals the character of Jesm ! Christ. | It gives the reason why* this revelation ? is given to me in preference to any other . man. I have been near two years investi0^ ! ting these revelations, and have paid i out about $900, which has taken all the j money I have, except fifty cents. ' The i next I hursday S-5 is due tor boarding. , 1 was directed by the spirit to come to Washington, make known the revelation, and ask Congress for pecuniary aid to | enable me to make mankind acquainted {with the revelation. 1 made known my | business to Governor Brown, of Missis ; sippi. lie promised to aid ine, hut after | wards said ho had not time.

I &aw Senator Wade, of Ohio, who professed much ignorance upon the subject and desired to remain so. 1 talked with Senator Shields, of Illinois, on the sulject; he treated it with con tempt, and I came av?ay. 1 saw i ro lessor Henry, of the Smithsonian Insti tul.0! an^ a^ed permission to ixplain Spiritualism to the public, in t?ie lecture room : but it was denied me. An}' person wishing to converse with me concerning the revelation, or desiring to inform where I can address a public audience on this subj-.ct can- find me at the 1 ranklin House, on the corner ol Eighth and D streets. II. G. Ukddout. Degeneracy of the Ministry.?As a sample of the way in which ministers are electioneering and working for elec tion to different posts, we clip the follow ing from a Boston paper. The ticket was gotten up with the American flag on it, and in a style somewhat like the "b'hoys" of the ?ixth ward of New York electioneer: The election of a clergyman to preach the sermon before the legislature of 1856, was attended by a goo t deal of ex citement and patriotic devotion to men, in the House of Representatives, yester day. Mr. Scattering had votes from all sides ol the chamber, and it will be seen by reference to the official vote, in an other column, that his holiness Pius IX , has an agent in the House, who had the audacity to cast an open ballot for the Rt. Rev. John B. Fitzpatrick, Roman Catholic Bishop of Boston. Let there be a committee of luquiry to ferret out this disguised emissary of the Pope. The tickets circulated were, in many in stances, quite unique. Here is a speci men : Cod sore Ike Commonwealth,. PREACHER OF the ELECTION SERMON, REV OTIS A. SKINNER, OF BOSTON. The Ameiican flag did not save Mr. Skinner, as Rev. Mr. Setley, of Spriug tield, a Congregationalism was elected on the second ballot. Matrimonial Advertising.?Matri mony is becoming more and more "mu/ tcr-of-money. ' We copy a couple of ad vertisements: A gentleman entirely worthy and re spectable, with an income of $3,000, in dependent of bis business, wishes to cor respond with a matrimonial view with an accomplished and refined lady. None but eligible and wealthy ladies are in vited to address A. R. T., Brooklyn, L. I., post paid. A young man of the first standing in society wishes to open a correspondence with a young lady of good disposition, ?fcc., with a view to matrimony. Addrt ss U. J. W-, Box No. 150, Holyoke, Mass. THI LATE JULIA D*AJI Ai gossips everywhere irt talking about the marriage of this lady with Dr. Hayne, of South Carolina, we deem it proper to publish the following biogra phy. taken from the New York Sunday Atlas: Some one. whom we very charitably believe was not aware that he was per petrating an act of superlative imperti nence, has addressed us a note, in which he asks ua to state, bv what authority we inserted the other day that Miss Ju lian-Dean fe the daughter of her reputed father. W ith the domestic affairs of Miss Julia Dean we have nothidg to do. 1 hey are as snored as thoae of other peo ple, and are not to be violated with im punity. Miss Dean is the daughter of a lady with whom we had the pleasure of an intimate acquaintance in our school boy days. Miss Julia Drake. She was a decided favoiite in the western theaters ? a;>d ahonl the year 1819, with htr brother Alexander, one of the best low come dians the woild ever knew.performed an engagement at the Park Theater. Both were eminently successful, and strong efforts we made to induce them to remain on this side of the Allegheny mountains, liul as Alexander had visited New York to receive performers from En-land, and engage others then in the city, for his father's stock company, all overtures that Were made were ncccss*rily disregarded. Mis:> Julia Drake?and her daughter. Miss Julia Dean, is an exact opy of her mother in figure, though not in counte nance was sought arid sued for bj num bered worshippers. .She had otters fur inatiimonial alliance from several of the most wealthy and resj>cctable men of Kentucky. Ohio, Tennessee, and Louisi ana, all of which she rejected, probably in consequence of the iact that her por fe-sional services were a 1 important to liie fortunes of her father, who was theu the leading and only manager west of the mountains. One of the earliest and moat ai d. nt admirers of Miss Julia Drake is now a resident of this city. We meet him often in our walks up town ; and thougn flge and infirmity have somewhat marked him, he still kelps " harpiug ou niy daughter," the beloved aud never to be forgotten Julia. At last Julia Drake made up her mind to marry, aud did marry a lawyer of Lou i.sviile or Cincinnati, uameJ Fosdick. \\ e cuuld i?ot recollect his name last week ; but have since been reminded oi it. Mr. Fosdick was a nati?e of New Kugland?of Nantucket, we believe -and wa.s brother of a man of the same name who married a lady of some euiineuce of this city, originally Miss Harriet tJeoffry, who was the grand-daughter of the ofe biateJ Major General (Jieene, second m command in the army of the revolution, and wiio subsequently, as Mrs. Muzzy, after she had passed through two matri monial editions, distinguished herself by writing the once popular and beautiful ?ong of ?? I l?n iliet ?litre i toniij lov*.*" Mr. Fosdick, the first husband of Miss Juiia Drake, died, and, as we always understood, left no issue. Mrs. Fosdick lckiained a widow we know not how long, but ultimately married Mr. tdwin Dean, an actor, and a man of very great worth, who became associated with a Mr. McKenney, in the management of the Buffalo an J other theatres. It is now said ihat Miss Julia Dean is the daughter of the first husbaud, Fosdick, and not of Mr. Dean. The rising reputation of Miss L>can - her great success?her virtue ?the honor tiie world chooses to heap upou her?the career she is lending and is destined to lead ?all conspire to tender her an object of envy. And the corres pondent w ho has thought lit to address us a note on the subject, in the exercise of his unintentional impertinence, under takes to impress upon us the belief that Miss D-an is the offspring of a man named Muzzy, who, we well recollect, was at one time a small lawyer in Ken tucky. It is not at all material whether Miss Dean is or is not the daughter of the gentleman who represents her in the guise of father and guardian. 'i hat she is a young lady of excellent worth that she is the offspring of virtuous love?that she is entitled to the laudation and homage she has received?all are matters that no one need or dare ques tion. The eulogy of the country is here; and the fame that attended Mrs. Siddins, Miss Brunton, Miss Oger, and Mit>s Mel ton, will most assuredly mark her path way in life. A Novki, Cask?The New York Her ald says the proprietor of a Sunday news paper, in that city, sued an individual for work and labor performed by the pub lication of an advertisement in said news paper. The defence set up is that the contract is illegal under the statute, which declares all agreements made for labor to be performed oa the Sabbath, to be null aud void. Tiie case is before the Su preme Court of New York, and the Her ald sa> s: "The Court evidently inclined to the belief that plaintiff could not recover, but reserved the decision until tl?e general term. It may be held that the labor is performed during the week; but that would not be a competent defenre, be cause the publication is made on Sunday, and that publication is the only proof of the contiact. In fact it is the contract itself, should the general term decide according to the principles laid down by the defence in this action, the proprietors of the Sunday newspapers will not be able to receive any debts due to them by the process of the law, either for adver tisements or for subscriptions. It will be equivalent to an act of outlawry."
