THE POWER OF WILL.
MESMERISM-AND STATUVOLISM.
Peculiar rsj-puole&ical Phenomena.
Dr. William n. Falinosteck's Theories DIs
cuMed in a Londen Journal.
FROM GRAVE TO GAY.
AJ" Free PreKH " as Commonly Interpreted
Hew He Named the ltaby.
McsinerUui and Statuvelcnce.
The Londen Spiritualist has a letter from
an American correspondent recounting the
discoveries of our distinguished fellow-
citizen, Dr. Fahncsteclc, in the science
which he has named btatuvelence, and
which he finds te furnish no basis for
spiritualistic doctrines. "Wc give the let
ter below, with the exception of some gen
eral introductory remarks :
'- Statuvelcnce ( or statu vel ism )
means, of course, a state produced by the
will ; and the implication of the term is
that it is a state self-produced, and net the
result of the action of the will of another.
On the hypothesis, which may be entirely
erroneous, that you have had no particular
account of this matter in England, I will
venture te give you a short general sketch
of the subject, reserving for some future
tunc a discussion of statuvelcnce with ref
erence te the elucidation of the mysteries
of trance mediumship, the advancement e
the art of self-healing, and the higher edu
cation of the will.
According te the original mesmeiists the
trance was produced by means of a uni
versal fluid, directed by the will of the
operator. Te the magic power of this
controlling will the subject was supposed
te be, for the time being, absolutely en
slaved ; liberty being restored only at the
stage of independent clairvoyance. The
early English experimenters did net ma
terially vary the French methods, though
they showed their lack of full acceptance
of the unproved theory of animal magnet
ism by substituting for that term the non nen non
cemmital " mesmerism." Te be sure,
when, twenty years later, Baren Keichen
b.ich's researches in reference te the ed od ed
ferce seemed te corroborate and elucidate
3Iesmer's cruder conception, Prof. Gregery
and ether writere re-adopted the phrase
"animal magnetism," and the term has te
some extent regained a feeling. It is,
nevertheless, ttue that the attempt te com
bine the original idea of Mesmer with inore
recent notions of edyllic and electric forces
has brought forth some of the most absurd,
ideas extant systems of "electro-biology,"
and "electro-psychology," fruitful
in magnetic coins and electro-magnetic
discs, composed of mineral substances se
scientifically arranged that the subject
who faithfully gazed thereat seen suc
cumbed te the occult influence, and fell
into a state of somnolence, willy-nilly.
Dr. Braid was canny Scotchman enough
te see that the cause of trance, when os
tensibly produced by such means as these,
lay net in the occult virtue of the magnetic
disc, but in the fixed attention of the sub
ject, and he showed conclusively by his
experiments that the trance could be pro
duced by a "double internal and upward
squint." Although the doctor and scep
tical scientists who have adopted his
"hypnotism " in dealing with the subject,
may have gene tee far in assuming that his
experiments proved, or tended te prove,
that subjects had never been entranced by
the mesmeric cll'ect of passes, but only by
the expectant contemplation of these mo
notonous muscular motions of the opera
tor, yet the hypnotic experiments did a
real service te psychological science by
showing that the concentration of the sub
ject's mind upon something eutsi'dc of him
self was just as effective as the concentra
tion of something outside of himself upon
the subject's mind showing, at least,
that the rule was one which worked both
ways.
Statuvelcnce gees still farther. It ab
jures all effects claimed te be produced by
the will of the operator, rejects as unneces
sary all gazing at external objects, and bases
itself upon the preposition that the will of
the subject (the term " will" being under
stood as comprehending the various men
tal attitudes of desire, fear, expectancy,
imagination, faith, etc.) is all-suiiicieut
for the production of the phenomena, and
that, in spite of the mass of testimony te
the contrary, they never have been pro
duced by any ether agency. The last state
ment is certainly a bold one, and challenges
criticism, but, whether true or untrue, it
is evident that a method the first postulate
of which is the supremacy of tiic subject's
will at all stages of the progress of enter
ing the trance, will develop higher phe
nomena than that method which concedes
se much te the will of the operator. View
ed in this aspect, the trance is no longer a
temporary mental enslavement, the depler
able consequences of which have been
darkly picturcihin various popular novels
of the day, and sometimes, though mere
rarely, encountered in practical experi
ments. Indeed, statuvelcnce is net a pro
cess te be blindly submitted te, but an art
te be learned, and the adept operator is no
longer a magician, but only a teacher.
But the reader who has followed me thus
far may desire te knew something about
the author of this system, his method of
instruction, and the phenomena produced
thereby.
Dr. William Baker Fahucsteck, the or
iginator of the statuvelic idea, is a' resi
dent of the city of Lancaster, Pennsylva
nia, and is new seventy-five years of age.
lie is a thoroughly educated and exper
ienced physician, as well as a mineralogist,
botanist and inventor, lie began te experi
ment in the line of animal magnetism
about 1840. His first subject was a boy,
who, after becoming entranced, ran all
ever the house, in spite of the operator's
efforts by will and voice te prevent him.
This first experience caused him te doubt
the supreme efficacy of the mesmerist's
will, and further investigation led te the
belief that the cause of the phenomena
was entirely in the expectancy, faith or
will of the subject. He seen beuan te
teach this doctrine te his subjects, and yet
met with increasing success. In a letter
te a Philadelphia paper in 1843, he re
ported that ever three hundred persons
had entered the state under his tuition. In
1843 he wrote his interesting and valuable
book entitled "Artificial Somnambulism,"
but did net publish it until 18G9. In 1871
a new edition was published (which is
still in circulation). The title being
se as te read, "Statuvelism, or Artificial
Somnambulism, Hitherto Called Mesmer
ism." The matter of the book remained
substantially unchanged. He expresses
his theory in a nutshell, en page CI, as
fellows :
" I have instituted many experiments te
determine the cause of this condition, and
all the facts gathered go te prove that the
state can be entered by an act of the sub
ject's own will, or can be induced by the
belief (en the part of the subject), that an
other person has the power of throwing
him into it."
In what I have te say of Dr. Fahues-
tock's method, I speak largely from per
sonal observation.
He sits down with the subject, without
physical contact, and directs him te let
the body remain in a perfectly relaxed
condition as far as possible, close the eyes,
and fix the mind en some familiar scene at
a distance, which it is particularly pleas
ant te revive in imagination. Anxiety
must be avoided. There must be no
straining effort of vision, as when one at
tempts te discern a distant object with the
external eye, but the subject must imagine
himself calmly scrutinizing the object in
all its details as if it were immediately be
fore him. The doctor talks te the subject
from time te time, exhorting him te for
get himself and his surroundings, and
keep his mind fixed en the distant place.
As seen as the subject sees, or fancies he
sees anything, he mentions it, and is told
te grasp it fully and observe its details.
I am giving a very rough sketch of a
method which is varied greatly in its ap
plication te particular cases ; but the fun
damental idea is that it is the mind that
sees and feels, and if the mind can be suffi
ciently abstracted from its immediate sur
roundings, it can just as well see te the
Planet Jupiter as into the next room. The
spirit world, as he expresses it, is an
"eternal here."
Although the ultimate object, m the
case of a diseased subject, is net the de
velopment of clairvoyance, the same
method is pursued, as being the best
means of getting the subject outside
of himself. When the state is fully
entered (and animal magnctisers would be
surprised te see hew Inrj e a percentage of
successes there .":) md clairvoyance is
developed, however imperfectly, the next
step is te teach the subject whose physi
cal frame has probably by that time as
sumed cataleptic rigidity that the mind
has, in this superior condition, absolute
power ever the bodily sensations, and can
feel or net, as desired, and that any reso
lution formed in the trance has a supreme
effect en the outer life. Fer example, if
it is desired te leave any part of the body
in the cataleptic state, in order that nature
may have a chance te heal without ner
vous irritation, the resolution se te de
produces the required effect ; and the
resolution te feel well, te be well, te forget
your disease, produces an cll'ect exactly
proportioned te the firmness and faith
with which the resolution is formed.
Everything depends en the will of the sub
ject ; the operator can only teach and sug
gest. Se, tee, the memory of the occur
rences of the trance-state is canied into
the outer life or net, just as may be de
sired and willed.
But the most wonderful, as well as the
most practical, development of statuvo statuve
lcnce is the power te deprive any part of
sensation in the waking state, when de
sired for the prevention or annihilation
of pain. The method of attaining this
power is peculiar,and net easilyexplicable.
The subject is diiccted te awaken the head
first, leaving the body cataleptic ; then by
an dibit of will an arm or any ether part
can be restored te feeling, and then in
stantly brought back te the cataleptic
state. After this double process has been
gene through with three or four times in
as many minutes, the subject acquires the
knack of doing it, and repeated practice
seen renders him able te threw any p ut cf
the body into the " condition," as the doc
tor calls it, instantly. The value of this
power te suffering humanity cannot be
computed.
I have been betrayed into saying se much
that I forbear te give any of the many iu
tresting cases illustrating statuelence, of
which I have personal knowledge or au
thentic information. I will report some of
them in the future, if I have any assurance
that this phase of psychology is new or in
teresting te your readers. Meanwhile it
may net be amiss te say that I have veri
fied and supplemented Dr. Fahnestock's
investigations by such experiments upon
subjects of my own as I have had opportu
nity and leisure te make ; hoping thereby
te help, if ever se feebly, te bring about
the consummation of a recent (albeit anti
spiritualistic) prophecy, te wit : that " in
the twentieth century the true philosophy
of trance and kindred phenomena of the
nervous system will be taught in all our
schools."
A Free Press.
.Seme of Its Advantages Tersely Stated.
Xew Haven Begister.
The beautiful idea of getting something
for nothing is iiewhcrQ mere readily trace
able than in a newspaper office.
Se much has been spoken, written and
sung about a " free press" that people have
come te accept the term in a sense alto
gether tee literal.
If a man has a scheme of any kind ger
minating he just steps into the editorial
room and details it with the remark, "I'm
net quite ready te advertise yet, but a few
words will help me along." He gets the
few words but never gets ready te adver
tise. Twe tickets admitting lady and gent te
the "G. R. X M. T.'s grand ball" are ex
pected te produce a six-line local and a
quarter of a column description of the
ladies' toilets after the ball is ever.
Church fairs and the like aic worse than
balls. They never leave tickets, but de
maud mere space, because "it's a matter
of news, and a help te the cause."
Should a boy saw oft' his finger, " Dr.
C. O. Plaster dressed the wound with
great skill,'' would be a graceful way of
stating it, and, besides, it is "unprofes
sional" te advertise.
The patent rat trap man brings in one of
his combinations of wire and meuldy
cheese bait, sticks it under the editor's
nose, and explains hew they catch 'cm
every time the spring works. " It's some
thing of interest te the community, and if
you put in a piece save me a dozen
papers," which he quietly walks off with,
as though he had bestowed a favor in al
lowing editorial eyes te gaze en such a
marvel of intricacy.
An iuvitatien " te come down and write
up our establishment" is a great deal
mere common than a two square " ad "
from the same firm. Newspapers must
be filled up with something or ether, you
knew.
The lawyer, with strong prejudices
against advertising, is fend of seeing his
cases reported in full in the newspapers,
with an occasional reference te his ex
ceedingly able manner of conducting the
same. It is cheaper than advertising.
In fact everybody, from a te izzard,
who has an axe te grind, asks the news
paper te turn the crank, and forgets te
even say thank you, but will kindly take a
free copy of the paper as part pay for fur
nishing news.
The press being "free," all hands seem
bound te get aboard and ride it te death.
That is why newspapers are se rich that
they can afford te pay double price for
white paper and never ask Congress te aid
them by removing the duty en weed pulp.
Naming the Baby.
Little Beck (Ark.) Gazette.
"My wife hez jes' presented me wid de
fines' boy in dis country said Black Bill,
entering a magistrate' s"office,taking off his
hat and slinging perspiration from his
brew with a crooked forefinger. "Yas,
gentleman," he went en, "de fines' chile I

" Abraham," guessed some one.
"Ner sah."
" Paul."
"Xer sah."
"Jeb."
"Guess again."
"Nicodemus."
"Keep en cemin.' "
" Abemleich."
"Try me agin."'
The guessing ceased after a time, and
finally Bill remarked :
" I'se named dat boy Judus Escarut."
" What !" said the magistrate. "Judas
betrayed our Saviour."
"Can't help hit. Dat's de boy's name.
Judus hez been slighted. Nobody hez eber
had de immoral courage tcr name a chile
fur dat man. But dat ain't the main
reason why I names him Judus. I'se get
de Bible ter 'stain me in gibin de chile dat
name."
"Hew does the Bible sustain you in
desiring te perpetuate that name?" asked
the magistrate.
" Hit's dis lack. Chris' in remarkin' ob
Judus said dat hit would hab bin better fur

"Well."
