Scott mil Description of his Costume,
Etc. Etc
The eentle reader can readily Imagine the sensa
licm with which we perused an invitation to be pre.
eent at "ihe reception of General Boott int spirit
Jile" last evening- It was In Tain that we recalled
the fact that the old hero waa burled at Went Point
aweckairo; there waa the invitation implying that
be waa to te present, in tome foim or other, at Ebbit
Hall, comer Broadway and Thirty-third street.
With a laith worthy ot a bettor reward we went to
Ebbit Hail, which waa filled, aoon alter our arrival,
by a veiy large audience,
TBI FLACK .AND TBS FIOF-LD.
Thore was nothlnr extraordinary about the hall
except a tea curtain baok ot the rostrum, and be-
hind
nils curtain we ii.niceutlv iuiaeined that
General Scott wu concealed, ready to cincrjro when
the fathering was proi ared lor Ins appropriate re
ception. Ihe aadicnoe was peculiar. We hare
never seen so many homely ladies, . middlo-atred
snntlomon, and unbecoming bnnnei sine the last
woman's Rights Convention, Masculine eves
ought for s pretty lace as a thirsty traveller seeks
an oasis In the de-ert. The ladies were a'most
equallr interested whnevcr a young- man apDoared
at the door and exhibited a disposition to enter.
Ihe wearer ot a Derby attracted general attention
ana envious admiration.
There were a lew people who had dropped in from
Curiosity ; a lew couples who bad selected tbo hall as
an excellent place for the usual Sunday evening flir
tation, and a tew id. era who had been attracted, like
moths, bv the light, and who tlutt red awav so soon
as somebody arose to speak but the majority of the
persons present were evidently sprirituuliat, not y
dressed but dec. rou-ly behaved, but having those
personal characteristics v nich mark the spiritualists
as a class by themselves, lio the Indians or the
actors,
PBKUMINAHT FROCKEDIK08.
After a sl'oi ce ot a lew moments, a gentleman
took the platform and announced that Judro Ed
monds would lecture next week, and that the ouly
spiritualist ptcnie of the season would be riven at
Fort Lee next rlday, iu aid ot a progressive school,
or lyceum. When ho had expatiated sufficiently
upon the charms of Fort Leo, which he declared to
tie the most beauthul s, ot in the univerao, he banded
a couple of baskets to two ladies, who proceeded to
take up a collection. One of tiiesa ladies was young,
pretty, and smiling, aud it was impossible to leluse
to contribute to her s ore The other was elderly,
grave, and reserved, and seemed to leave the matter
oi contnbu'ion to the consciences of those to whom
Ihe prevented her basket.
As we noticed that several of the audlenee shirked
this same, we respectfully recommend that only
young ladiea shall be permitted to pass the plate in
future The money having been haded over to the
Treasurer oi the ttoclety of Progressives, another
lady struck a lew chords upon the piano and then
began to sing, in a shrill, wiry voloe a hymn about
"Ihe cold grave," the eflect ot which was to cause
coot chill to creep over the audience, and to Involve
ns in a state ot depressing arloom eminently favorable
to spiritual manifestations' The lights seemed to
burn blue, the red curtain waved to and iro, but
nothing else happened ; and a. ter exhorting us, in
the last verse, to "be cheertui,"whiob. was quite
impossible nndtrthe circumstances, the singer and
the piano, not agreeing well together, suddealy
ceased their disoord.
MlfS EMMA JAT BTJLLKNB.
All Ibis while another ladv had been sitting upon
the platlorm, i er lorrn l ent, her head bowed, her
brow resting upon her hand, and her whole attitude
expressive of profound reflection, and an endeavor
to see as tar into the spirit world as possible. When
the singing ceased this ladv came forward to the
' desk; and we were informed tnat her name was
Hiss Emma Jar Bullene, and her occupation that of
a lecturing nied urn. Miss Bullene is perron of
the medium age and height, with a broad lorehead,
sunken etieeks, a mouth framed for much. talking,
a pale complexion, and hair worn in heavy bands
and short curls, is he waa plainly but richly dressed
in b ack silk, with Jet ornaments, aud upon her
finger sparkled a diamond ring.
Without preface or Introduction she commenced
reciting a poem about a dead hero, which was so
very bad that we at onoe deoided toat it had been
composed by hei self while in the pensive attitude
above described, it appeared, however, that we
were mistaken. Miss Bullene got along very well
with the rhvmes until she came to a line announcing
that angels had borne the dead hero somewhere ;
hut at this point she broke down, paused a few mo
menu, and then, as if susploious cf incredulity, de
fiantly stated that the poem had been diotated to
her by a spirit, but that "as the intense thought ol
the audience as to what it all means, we presume
had destroyed the conditions of reoeptivity," she
could notirepeat any more of it at present. Here
there was a general sif h ot relief, and a number of
peisons, who bad been quietly edging tewards the
door, resumed their seats.
LXCTUUI OH 1TEBO WORSHIP.
Miss Bullene then announced that the inbjoet of
her discourse would be "Hero Worship," of wh en
.she proceeded to apeak. Most of our readers have
heard the butlesaue orations upon woman's righta
in the "dat's what's de matter" style, delivered by
negro minstrels. Miss Builene's oratory was the
counterpart of this bur.esque. There waa the same
monotonous tone, the eam peculiar inflections at
the close ot each tentenoe, the same muddled rhetorio,
the same absurd and incongruous illustrations, the
eame junib.e ot woros without meaning, the same
independence of grammar, the same carelessness as
to pronunciation, the same attitudes and the same
frequent couuh altnough in the ease of this poor
lady the cough seemed quite involuntary and indica
tive of ill health. Ihe constant repetition of the
phrase ' or your time," in a very emphatio tone, was
as ludicrous as the ca ch-wo'd of the minstrels.
Nothing was wanting to complete the companion
except the absurd costume aud the old umbrella to
hang the table.
Una Builene's misuse of words and transpositions
Of sentences would have put Mrs. Malaprop and Mrs.
Partington to the blush had they been present. But
her veiy impressive manner and her ladylike ap
pearance prt-vented the audience from noticing the
ridiculous side of her remarks; and when she de
clared that ' our national power caused the sponta
neous atringa to reverberate in simultaneous waves
of national g ory" simply because we did not wor
shin heroes, and oontras ed this state of attain with
the tact that Enuland had lost her place among the
nations "because she worshipped the hero, not lor
his good deeds, but because bis honor arose irom
tracing his line through tne tone line ot the lineage
ot an honored ana nonoraDie ancestry, wey appa
rently accepted it all as gospel.
THH DBATH OF 6XNXRAL 8COTT.
Leaving the subject ol tero worship as abruptly as
she bad eutered uou it, mas uuueiie oegau 10 uo
or i he the death of tieutral Suott and his entrance
into the spirit land, it e have no space for s ver
batim report ol her remarks, with their endless re
petitious, con radiciious and absurdities, nor would
so muon nonsens prove interesting to the reador,
even U we bad room I of it In brief, Mis. Bullene
declared that about teu hours "ot your time" before
Geneiai Boon's uecease, a circle or spin la waa
formed, by direction ot the Head Centre of the
mint land, to as-ist the old htro in dying. This
circle was couponed ot seven poisons, five ot whom
were memiers ot the General' lauuly, and con
sisted of "two middle-aved ladies, oue young lady,
one middlo-aged gentleman and a lad " 1 he other
two sturita in the circle were Washington aud
Lincoln.
Ihe clroles were always formed over dying per
anna, aim exn ained. in order to facilitate their death.
and to instruct the saints themselves. In the case of
General bcott it required about lour hours ' of your
time " to periect tne communications, auu mtiu iuo
General lell better than he had lor tiiteen years "ot
your t ime" betore. A bout nix hours ' "ol y o ur time"
nnor to the General's death, the aeirits began to
manufacture lor him a suinlua body by drawing the
BDintual essence from bis attendants, filtering it
'through a sheen or veil." 1 his process being com-
nieted. the General had adeluhtiui dream, in wiiiuu
he reviewed the memories of the pas', and saw the
e-iories of Ihe luture. His soul then eevered the tew
electrio cords that bound the General's spirit to his
linnv. and the General died. It pains us to record
auch details aa these; but what else can s luithlul re

BBTRAMOS TO TBS SPIRIT LAND.
After the General's death he was unconscious for
about three miuutes "of your time," continued Miss
Bullene. and then be awoke to nod hirasell sur
rounded by his family and distinguished friends.
Hu m, rial hnd la on earth before him. and he was
attired in a spiritual body "at least twenty years

which continued until the next day, "of your. time,"
durinir whluh the preparations were made lor nis
crand otnciai recepuou by tne spiritual aumoruiu
when he "reawakened again," aa Iliaa Bullene ex
created it, every ihiuir waa ready, aud he was ar
raved in hie spiritual costume which the lectures
vr careful. v described, exulainina everything
.Iwmt it as minutuli as it she bad uiauufaotured It
berself. whioh she undoubtedly had "out ot tbe
whole coth" of her own iiuaniuatiou,
TBS SPIRITUAL COSTUME.
First of all Mlsa Bullene asertod that the- dress
which spirit wear Is composed ot exhalations irom
their thoughts and spin ual bodies, and colored by
their idii.st noraoio and desires. Tho-e exhalations
begin at the base ot the biain, and lorrn a positive
electrio current, which leaves tho face clear, and
clothes all the rest ot the body in a emi-lren-parent
drapery. The spirits can ornamont this dress in any
way they choose by simply wishing for the orna
ments; but bad snirits wear dark colors, and tho
purer a spirit Is the whiter and brighter is Its eos
tun e. Geneiai (Scott, on the occasion of his recep
tion, was arrayed in a suit of pearly white or ell
ery grey, inclcative ot the fact that, thou eh a very
good man, ho had his fallings, which prevented his
drefs irom being perfectly pure.
On his bosom there were two or three purple spots,
emblematical of duties which he bad loft uuper
foimed. On bis lett shoulder were three glittering
stars, the insignia ot I is rank. Across his chest was
a rash and around his waist a belt. Over his heart
was an eje ' giowing, flashing, and gleaming with
Joy unspeakable." on his lult side was a rcahbard
ot purest gold. -In his light hand he had held a
two-edged sword of the finest steel, Its hilt adorned
with diamonds, pearls, tmoralds, and topazes, "the
emblems ot the tour nations whose future now ap
pears to be prophetic" whatever that may moan.
This sword, said Mies Bullene signlflointly, was
pointed towsrds the crown of England, a faot which
iou may interpret as you will. As there were no
enlace present thi hit ot the lecturess tell dead.
THE GRAND RECEPTION.
When Mies Bul eno arrived at this part of her lec
ture, to which all the res' oueht to have been merely
introductory, nor fancy failed her, and she was x
traordinarilv br ef. Perhaps she bad exhausted her
eon t ton that marvellous ccstume. Atanvra'esbe
simply etated that General oott was received by all
the M ilits en matte, At his right stood Washington.
Behind him was Wellington, the Iron Dune. At his
left at pearcd the late Czar ot Ituesia. Beiore htm,
with louied arms, Kapoloon was stationed aa the re
presentative ol Franco. Jeflerson, Mad son, Taylor,
Lincoln, and the otner deceased President ot this
republic, whoso names Miss Bullene had clearly for
gotten, sctoi as ti.e reception committee. Clay,
Web? tor, Doug, as, and Washington Irving assisted
the committee.
All the dead heroes of the recent war were on
duly, with many thousands ot other famous people
whom Mifs Builone would not name. Ihe recep
tion ceremony was exceedingly modest. A little
cbi d win m tho General had dearly loved was de
puted to present him with a crown of laurel; and as
it was p aerd upon the hero's bead there were accla
mations I rem the vast throng. With these few par
ticulars Mm rtullone concluded her lectare, alter
impressing upon our minds the duty of disclplt
narianehip," which she stated to be General Scott's
cbiel characteristic. Before she eat down she in
quired if any one wished to ask her any questions;
but there was no response from the audience, al
though there ws a general feeling that she might
easily have made a little more out of the reception.
TBS CONCLUSION.
A hymn, "appropriate to the occasion," was then
read and sun?, tho aunienco rising and many ol them
leaving in baste to avoid tho necessity of purchasing
tickets for the spiritual picnio. During this hymn
four other persons joined in the singing, with tho
cbaritalle bat unsuccessful des gn of drowning the
voice ol Ihe ladv who bad sung before. But the
louder they sang the louder she sang, and finally the
basso, who had srowied till he was red in the lace,
gave the thing up in despair.
llifs Bullene had returned her pensive attitude,
and was finally led off bv a gentleman with large
whiskers. Ihe red curtain was brushed aside as
she passed, and dincloesd nothin but a window
b hind. On the whole, although thee were none of
the "startling manifestations" promised in our in
vitation, and the farrago of nonsense which we
have sketched, was all ot the "reception." still we
were rather glad that General Scott was not present,
either in the flesh or the spirit, for if he had been
we can imagine the stile in whioh he would have
rebuked those wno dared to use nis name and tame
as an adveitisoment for such a meeting, New York
