fliure ot Colonel Goodwin, whoso researches iuto
the mjstene of t ho spirit land, throufrj the medium
ot Miss Van Wie, have attracted recently so niuuti
attention at the Tombs aud olssffhcro.
Ijut evonlnir quito a largo aud respcc'nblo au
dit nee Mftinbled at the hall, No. 014 Broadway, tnr
op towards tlio blua vault of heaven, lor tho iiurpoHO
ot sharing with Mies E la, ' th child of Ood,'' tho
beauties and tie Iphts of spiritual intercourse, and of
witnessing lea's porlotnieu fur that occasion only by
the friend y bands ol tho alortsaid spirt's, whow
interest In Colouol Coodwin's weekly board bill Is
evident and he piul. lhe tickets woro sold at tho
door by a boy ot leu vers of aye. an I tho roservau
coat checks were fathered in by a lovely little girl ol
seven, or thereabouts. At a Utile alter c.glit uood
win appeared.
He tuined the fras up and down, looked out of the
window and over the audience; then, after a vnjor
us poll of his moderately developed no-e, put on
Ms spectacles, bowed his head and meditated. Tins
dono, ho lead some ismatio rhyni nxs, and addressed
the Supremo Deity iu phrases indicative ot great
familiarity and but lltto respect. A very long chap,
tor in Ht. Mark was read, ''onito accidental, ' so very
long- that it really seemed an if tho t'olonol was
roadlnu arainst timo and waiting fur moie quarters.
Alter wh'oli he said:
"As 1 anuounc d this afternoon, I am sorry to see
ao few woman hero, but 1 sup.ioso a woman mint
have much I olduess to come alter the slurs and lies
sent out by a corrupt pi ess. We come here to
worship iot in our own way, according to the dic
tates of our own consc euce, and any ono who don't
like it can so to the door and vet his money back.
We don't intend to be Interrupted or bot lorod. if
there is law and power enouica in tho city to pro
tect us. It is a shame, but the lact, that always on the
eve ot reform reformers are instt.ted and siuried."
lie then, at great length, and in a terribly bore
o me manner, nai rated his experiences Inthisciiy,
claiming great knowlcduo ot human nature, tho
wlckediies of sooiety, tho corruption of tho press,
the peculiar ways of Aslant D.strict Attorney
Bedford, the length of Charley Spencer's rope, and
the character of his exhibitions.
It was suggested that t he audience camo to see and
bear fiom tho spirits, and that black? uaidism simply
drove the people away; but it was of no u-e. Good
win really seemed bent on making a row, and raising
a disturbance. His audience was quiot, lespectlul,
long suflennp', and full of fun. but he was cress
grained, sour, impeitinont, and abusive. He con
tinued his nonsensical balderdash in the most airo
frant, high-handed, and offensive manner lor more
than an hour, when be graciously consented to the
APPOINTMENT OF A COMMITTED.
He accepted a Mr Doremus, of East Twolfth
etreot, but made vigorous objection to Mr. Wash
ington l'eale, lormeny of Ferris' photograph gallery,
on Broadway.
Two ladies searched Miss Van Wie In her room,
ar.d reported that, after the minutest investigation,
they were convinced that sho had nothing on or
about hor person which could ass et her in untying
or catting ropes.
THE MEDIUM
was then led In. She is young, not more than
twenty, loosely bni t, but rather pretty, with m id
eyes, good tooth, light curly hair, no figure to speak
of, an intelligent countenance and a general good
look, Sho was taken to the box or cupboard, ot
ordinal y construction, and seated on a common
wooden chair. The Committee, Messrs. Feale and
Doremus, then examined the box, and the audiouoa
examined them. X'eule is a man ot thirty-five or
lorty kyeais of ago, with greyish hair, a keon, black
eye, lank jaws, cui.n.ng expression, artistlo dress, and
general iMee air. His colleague, Doremus, is older,
with inil beard, a soft lace, kind excretion, aud
honest look. Neitbor are iu regular business, and
the audience was disposed to watch their operations
closely, depending rather on Doremns to check any
favoritism on the part ot f'ea e.
l'ia e tied Miss Van U io, and 'ho tied her well.
Her wrists were lound to tho cuuir, her arms wore
then hound o otoly to the buci, the rope ends were
brought behind her and tied iu tho middle of the
cnair. Doremus thou took a smaller cord and did
bis host to compieto the security of the fastening.
Pealo then tied Miss Van Wio's feet, and Doiemus
looked and saw it was good.
In toct, they were so ion about It that the audi
ence became impatient, wiule the grouty Goodwin
waxed impatient, and said many rough things of the
hidaddy stylo, lor which ho deserved kicking thon
aiid troere. However, ah things have an end, and so
did this rope. Tho Committee, having sl.ut tho doors
ot the caoinet, subsided like the rest of us, and,
waited for tho coming of tho Spirits, while Goodwin
fanned hinuself and his dear little gul, and made
friends with the pcoplx by giving tbciu water In
niuuy cunning, childlike ways.
'Jou minutes passed; a tew kicks only wore heard.
Twenty-five wero gone; a ropo's end had been
heard to rap against tno board.
Forty minutes, but no sign.
Goodwin was rampant, but uneasy, and called in
a very disrespectfully dictatorial way to the spirits,
intimating his displeasure, and ordering them to
hurry up
We icared that the lady, who is quite delicate,
might have fainted, but Goodwin pooh-poohed me
idea.
ltu more minutos passed, and the Committoe weie
summoned to look a. tho medium. Sue sat hunting
ai.d drooping, limp in hor chair, whoucn but lor the
friendly cored she woulu have lal en. Tho cords had
been loosened a little at tho end, but all attempts to
untie or uuoo them were lutne.
Tho audience domandod an explanation, and Mr.
Teale, who, w,th his oo. eapuo, Doremus, now stood
redeemed before the audieuoe, stated how he had
tieu tho lady and his benei in her inability to untie
the ki.ot.
Gooowin w nonplussed, but saucy still.
1 he lady lumtcd.
Loud cries were mnde s'multaneously for "water,"
police," and "money." I'ickpockeU wore expert,
doctors were eager, po icemen were plucky, ana
everybody was curious.
We suw thai the medium was really ruflering, and,
with lhe ofsistaLoe ol Olliccr Bean, conducted her to
ber room, hero she as laid upon a aula in a state
ot coma.
The crowd fol owed, but as the door was slammed
quickly In their faces, thoy returned to torment
Goodwin. That interesting imbeciio stood on tho
p'atlorra, and with refreshing audacity attempted
to come Jack Easy on his hem era by arguing the
point, which the, didn't see, and all of a sudden,
qule accidental," bis hat was jammed over bis
eyes, bis tables upset, and his caroass in danger,
w hen the protecting locust oi Oilioer Beau spread
its metropolitan wings above him, and hu-tled him
away to the station-house, io lowed by a laughing,
shouting crowd, who taunted the rash reformer,
saying unto him, " r by don't you cull y our spin a
savt"
But while this econo was transpiring outs'de to
the entile satisfaction of everybody but Goodwin, a
very u ill e rent arlair was in prowess in the bedroom
of Mis. Goodwin. On the red was the sweet lut e
girl whose beauty and aitlessness bad won the re
gard ot many a man and woman in tho audience, as
yet in happy unconsc ousnes-j of the trouble Of her
mother, and the disgrace of li r father j by hor Bide
lay tue weeping medium, whoso por-ou was ex
amined by the attuudiug pbydciun aud hor friends.
Her wrl 'Is ami arms wero shockingly marked and
swollen, her fingers were stiftoncd, aud she had no
control whatever ot her limbs. Vigorom ruubiug
purtiallj restored a healthy circulation, when she
stated that almost as soon a 3 she had been iult in
the cabinet tho fdt mini and s.ck ai her stomach,
and reecn'.ly hunted a ay. S.ie had been tied too
tivhtly, but said nothing about it becauso she
tuoBfht it could la t but a low womeuis, and she
Could Ma-id it.
Mrs. etOudwin was in groat distress lest some
barm should happou to tier husnaud, aud the little
"irl, on waking, cried most piieousiy when sho
fuiled to fiud hor "papu." At tho moment wnoa tho
littlo glil was calling lor horiather, a crowd ot men,
b aded by a i olicemen, rushed into tno inner bud
rcom, and one of them, with a oigar .n his uiomh,
raid txcitetlly, "There she is, oilloor, take hor off"
