Thero is no cbuuge to report in 7omnier.ial matters, with the single exception that Pork is advancing. The Free City of Frankfort. Franklort, now so harshly treated by Prussia, lias suiiered frequent disasters. The conquerors have always required troni her ruinous contri butions, either in consequence of her reputed wealth, or trom the certainty that no reprisals were to bd feared from a city which only pos sessed an army of 1000 men. Du.ing the Thirty Years' War that city was placed under contribu tion by the fewe les, the Imperialists, and the Ficncti. It was ravaged by fire in 1711. 1718, anl 1721. In 1792 Custiue imposed a contribution of two millions of florins; Kleber bombaided it in 1796, and Aiigureau occupied it in 1806. At the period in which Custino imposed the contribu tion of two millions of florins the prosperity of KiaDkfort was at lis height. What must now be said of the demand for 25.000,000? Death of Prince Antony de Ilohcuxol lern. The young l'rince Antony dc Hohenzollern, who was severely wounded at the battle of Koniggratz, died of his wouuds on the 5th. He wae mentioned with great honor by the King. General Mutius, whose death baa been already mentioned, died of apoplexy. A Pugilist and ins Secretary. In a case, Mayes agt. Mace, tried iu the Sheriff's Court at Warwick, England, las. mouth, In which the detem ant was "Jem" Mace, "champion of Eng land," we are treated to a glimpse ot the private liie.of a professional pugilist. The so-called chan pion, it appears, like other great men, possesses "a secretary" not the usual Tiece ot furniture that is known by that name, but a real live writing secretary who bears the name ot Mr. Henry Montaaue, and travels with his patron from place to place. This Is the first item (says the London Hetiew) towards our knowledge of a lighting man's establishment. The second Item relates to his personal attire. There are many of us who, on other than sumptuary grounds. mieht hesitate before diving our tailor an order for "a Chesterfield coat at 4 14s. Cd." and an otter-skin vest at 3 3s.;" and yet it was for these articles, as supplied, "per esteemed order." to Mr. Jem Mace, that Mr. Mayes, a Birming ham tailor, brought his action and obtained a verdict "lor the full amount claimed," together with a second verdict In a second action, neaint-t Mr. Montague, the puglliBt's secretary, for the sum of three guineas for a "sealikrin waistcoat." When a jockey keeps his valet, and a pugilist hl secretary, men who live merely by the sweat of their brains instead of iheir brows, and who are their owa valets and secretaries, may console themselves that nature has not endowed them with a taste for "fancy vests" at three guinea.

SPIRITUALISE. Second Day's Proceedings of the Convention at Providence Blasphemous Speeches by Dele gate? Spiritualism, Atheism, and Infi delity 8ynonymom Extraordi nary "Poem" by the Spirit of Andrew Jackson, Etc. MET1FBTBICS BT A BOGUS DELEGATE. Mr. F. L. Wadsworth, living in Chicago, but representing Indiana, was Introduced. He said they had come together to deliberite about w ays and means for the accomplishment of end;. He wished to address them as a body of reformers- He would lcok at the method they were to adopt in the accomplishment of their purpose. They steod out against the popular institutions and methods of the time. It seemed to him th.st all the theological systems tended to induct the Divine institutions iuio the human. Take the govt rusments that have been, and those that aie, and they result Irom outside method coming upon the governed. t seemed to him that the modern spiritual moven.ent presented something characteristically new; not thatthere was a natural and a supernatural, but there wa a spiritual naturalism. This included the pluciiia ol the Divine in nature, not outside ot it, aua planted in every atom, every seed, and every soul, all the possibilities that could ever be re quired from that soul. Everything was in them that could he required ot them. The old plan would put divinity into human nature, assuming tuat human nature was not diviuity. By the new plan they would proceed to evolve the divinity out of human nature. (A voice, "That's the point.") What docs this do to us, as men and women? The Spiritualists of to-day stand out with ereater opportunities of rloiug good to the people than any other class. Spiritualism euaoles the human soul to elevate and progress itself, and it puis ihe veil between earth and heaven. This divinity in nature is absolute and uuKcr&ul. Nothing is outside of God, and God is not out side of anything. Every human soul that hai lile presents all that h essentially divine. With the spiritual phenomena before us. opening our way "into the nett world, the mo-t inevitable result is thac we should return to this earth and the relations ot this world. It is not enouh to know that those we seem U have lost are not lu.'t. The choir then saug a spiritual song, entitled "Shall we meet beyond the river?" MISS SUSIE M. JOUNSON iCOLDS EM. Mis Johnson was plainly but tastefully attired, as became a young lady apparently in lier teens. She tpoke with perfect clearness of euunciation, peispieacity, and excellent elocution, with the air, indeed, of a practised public speaker. She began by stating the results that she expected would accrue "from the Convention, among which she enumerated the sociul reunion, and the perfect co-operation of all in the work of icform. SHE WA8 TIRED OF TALKING. She had talked lor ten years, and was heartily si"k ol it. She was ready to work with, any niun, or any woman. Sue was not prepared to otter a system. She would work in the gutter if necessary. It was easy to pray for mankind, and not so easy to work. She was greatly inte rested in the children. It seemed to her that every sincere and earnest fcoul's welfare de pended upon the education of the children of this generation. It was possible to engraft upon tho children the principles of this organisation. Every one present should feel that the purposes ot the Convention were not insignificant. Kach was entitled to opinions and prejudices. But, wherever they joined, let them act together. She was aware that she was talking to but a small portion of spiritualists. She begged that lbt& Convention would not dissolve until some practical working system had been devolved lor the working of spiritu alism. She had been taunted with the fact that spiritualism had, as a body, done nothing towards one single practical eifort lor the up lilting of humanity. She would admit that In dividuals had done good, but as a body rhey had done nothing. She wanted the encourage ment ol old pioneer spiritualists to an ertort for f umanity that would give them Borne practical results. She did not like spiritualists who were content to take their spiritualism in liberal Unitarian churches, sugared over with or thodoxy. She wanted spiritualism pure and simple. A STORY AND A SONG. Mr. Fobs, of the Massachusetts delegation, a thick-set, deep-voiced, grey bearded, wide- mouthed, but jolly individual, next took the stand, and said that as they were tired he would only detain them with a story and a song, and take care to put the story and the snug close together. The story ran thus: Once upou u time, a certain king besieged a certain city, and in the city there was an idol standing upou the top ot a hifih shait. rue people in tne city naa been taught to believe, and they all did believe most devoutly, that it they were to offer insult to that idol tho whole city would be visited with ruin, and the whole country would be desolate; so year after year they were bound to that idol. Uut the King marcneu upon tue city ana tooic it ; and one of his soldiers, who was not at all su- fierstiiious, climbed up the shaft and shivered ho Idol lit pieces with his battle-axe. The people were, of course, amazed and horror B'ricken. They expected something terrible to happen, liut notuiug aid happen. Tne sun rose the next morning according to the alma nac, If they had an almanac at that time. (Laughter.) Consequently the people began io get rid ot their superstition. They shook hau ls with the audacious soldier, and thanked him for what he had done. APPLICATION OF THE 8 TORT. The city is the church of this land. The idol is this tkeology, and the army thai is beseieiug the city is spiritualism. If you want a soldier to strike down the idol, why I'm here ready to dolt. (Laughter and applause.) He thanked God that this was not an age ot worship, but an In.r.ic-tl (ft, I irtti it. urflQ ttnt a tinm tni m-aver. but forlnauirv. Then was nothiuir so old or sacred that we might not lake it into our hands, turn it over, take it away, anl measure it. and and out exactly Us value. The Holy ol Holies is open to the gaze of everybody; we have all a right to look iu. Although we are at nist full ol iears and apprehension, by-and-by we may walk square in and take hold of the censor, and the ephod. and all the machinery they have In there. (Laughter.) Progress is the law, and there w a law ot progress, i PARSONS MADE TO ORDER. There Is a Dlace railed Andover, in Masm cbuseuB. where they make parsons to order. If you want one tor $500 a year, they will make you one at that pnee, or moy win maice you one for $5000 a year. In that place there is a law that every nve years the professors shall swear to support me Anamanasian creea. xney swear that tliey will believe that and nothing else, so help them God. (Laughter.) It would seem that it there Is any place in the world that would stand still. It would be Andover. (Laughter and applause.) And yet Andover does not stand still. (Laughter.) It has ad vanced and is advancing. In spite of all their Srayers anil oaths, tney will get into the king oui of heaven. There bad been progress fii singing. For instance, let them compare Ihe J beautiful tongs thej had beard with, the doleful tunes of the old time. Something like the following: "Ucp in that land where terrors reign, A land of terror and rte-psir, Justice b built a dismal hell. And laid his stores of danror thrre. There Satan, the first sinner lays, And rears ana ties hi iron batds; Id vain the rei el strive to rle, Pressed wnh the weight ot both his hands. What a picture that would make for a maga- r.iue! (Great laughter.) Then again there hod been great Improvement in the praying. There u-ed to be a deacon iu his church who prayed, "Oh, Lord ! we thank Tnec thai, we have not to be guided by reason to tiud the way to Thee, but can come richt up to Thee through Jesus Christ our Lora." The deacons had nothing to do with reason, and reason bad nothing to do with theiu. A VISION OF JUDGMENT. Speaking of praying reminded him of a story about a new convert to the church who had been called upon to "speak In meeting." The convert said he could not make a speech, but he would tell a dieam. He dteamed that he died and wmt to heaven, and God as ted him to sit at His right band, and listen to all the pray ers that came up to heaven through a tremen dous aperture. The Lord told him to put his enr down and hear tne prayers. Ho did so, and ceaia some pmying ior one thing, and some tor another exactly opposite. 8oine Draved. "Lord hcln Jeff," and others prayed, "Lord, help Abe." And when he raised tip, the Lord s:ild, "What do you make ot all thai?" and he told Him he couldn't make anvthmg ol it, and the Eord said. "Neither can 1." (Great lauehter.) Thfre bad been great progress in preaching, too. He re collected when he was ordained, he wondered it he could remain tho same man. He wondered whether he could preach any belter the next Sunday for it. He supposed, however, it had done some wondertul thing. He ha I taken tho medicine, and was wailing for its operation. tuoars ot laugmer.) Second Day's Proccedlugs. A SPIRIT Wlh DOW-FASTENER. Previous to tho opening of the morning ses sion there was quite a gathering of the brethren and sisters, who were occupied in listening to ten-minute speeches. Among others, a geutle ruan took occasion to call attention to a patent window-fastener, the mvenion of which, he said, had been communicated throutru Mis6 Emma Hardinge by a spirit. The only condi tion maue by tue spirit was. that it should be made public that the invention was first made known thr. ugh the medium of spirit communi cation The invention had been pateuted. and was ior sate cneao pr.ee. etc. etc. etc. Un n otion, a committee on resolutions was authorized to prepare resolutions expressive of the sense of the convention.

REORGANIZATION A BREEZE. Mr. Gardner moved the appointment of a com- nintee of one Irom each State to revise and re organize the plan of the Convention, asset forth by the Philadelphia Convention. He wanted this Convention to be recognized as a national organization, representing the spiritualism ot the country. He was opposed to the continued authority ot the Philadelphia Convention. A delegate irom Philadelphia inquired why it was that the chairman could entertain such a motion. Was not this Convention called under the authority of the Philadelphia Convention? Mr. Toohey stated that they were told in Phi ladelphia that there was no intention to control this Convention. It was evident that there was an intention to pull wool over the eyes of tho Convention, aod to cram down their throats a eag which, though successful in Philadelphia, should not succeed in Uhode Island. Mr. Fish insisted upon a point of order: tbat the whole suoiect was out of order, ae- cordinir to all ecclesiastical law and all par liamentary law. IPSE DIGIT. Mr. Gardner said that Mr. Fish had been so long ene.aue.1 in exercising ecclesiastical autho rity, that he could not get over the habit, and wanted to exercise his ipse, diciil. He denied the authority of any committee to choke dawn di-cussion. "lie appealed from tne decision of tue cnatr. CHOKING. Mr. Fish did not want to choke anybody. He hurled back the Imputation. The discussion was coutiuued at length, aud Messrs. Bacon, Chase, Finney, and others pur- ncipaiea. tue aispostrion ot tne supporters ot Mr. Gardner seemed to be to get the Convention to adopt some dedcite plan of action. They wanted tbe spiritualists of America to have some specitic purpose something positive and obvious to work lor. The impression of this Bide seemed to be that there was an intension 011 the part ul certain wirepullers to control the Convention so as to make it a mere talking concern. BEHIND THE SCENES. Mr. Toohey gave a glimpse of the doings at Philadelphia, where, according to his account, fouie delegates held possession of three or four otlices in order to keep the control away from certain parties opposed to the wire-pullers. He had no respect tor the Cuurch or ecclesiastical policy. All the idiots in the world could not make a worse system than the ecclesiastical system. He warned the Convention to recog nize the right of everybody in the Conventionjto be heurd. " Mr. Slorer affirmed that it was utterly im practicable to pass resolutions tbat could be considered as a creed or articles of faith. Ho wai in favor ot such an organization only out side of the organization of spiritualism. He believed it impracticable to adopt anv creed which would be unanimously approved bv the Convention. A LADY WANTS TO GO TO HELL. Miss Hutchings, of Massachusetts, hai always been a-b tuned of the fact that spiritualist had always been as scarce as Christians, she bad hoped to have resolutions that would be active, and not belonging to the dead past. It any t y w as to be excluded, she wanted to bo ex cluded with him. If anybody was to go to hell, she wanted to go with bim; sue wojld work for humanity in hell if necessary. What had been done by the Convention? Nothing) What good did resolutions do when people were suf fering in their stomachs? She wanted to do something. Tbe resolution of Mr. Gardner, for a reorgani zation committee, was cuiried with but a few votes in opposition. THE DEVIL. Mr. A. B. Child, of Boston, was Introduced to occupy the last half hour of the morning session. He said that the devil was a nrce'slty in his day, but he would go down. Tbe childish method oi cympublou and force wci yorj good la pbjsi;i but bad In morals. Religion and morality were not to be promoted by such means. He thought that Christ and Fourier were worthy of our imitation. At the close of his speech the Con vention adjourned for recess until 2 P. M. Afternoon Session The main work of this afternoon session of the Convention consisted in the discussion of the resolution advocating the children's pro gressive lyceum system. During the afternoon a communication Irom the spirit of Andrew Jackson, ex-President of the United States, was recited by Sanlord B. San, Ininresslonai medium. The following is General Jackson's poem: Friends of freedom, awake t All that's dear is now at stake; Olid on your arms lor the flrht, Thus all with you will be right. dod thus lar ha crowned you with success; Deal Justly and he will von bless W itb victory o'er th rebel host, His snge s will chase them from your coast.

A returned miner from Montana was drug eed and robbed of about $8000 in gold dust at a low doggery on the St. Louis levee one day recently. The indications are that the cereal crops of the West and Middle States, soon about to be, 11 not already in good part harvested, will be the most abundant on record.
