The New York nibuneof vesterclay,
:has it'long,accOunt frorn a cant - Ilium of
citizens of Rochester, id relation to certain
communications with departed spirits,
Whieh it'se,ems has excited a good deal of,
attention in some parts of the western per.
tion of New York, particularly Rochester
' and Auburn, where it was investigated by
Saiteral, 'committees. The whole, story is
„
veri readable; but few, in this age of hum
tuggerg. ofall sorts, will yield entire ere
`once to it. Some, however, may, for
'therp.are many who are never, satisfied
With anfthing short of the marvellous, and
""andcontent
never ,happy as when they
tt:c, well htimbUgged. The story that
certain .sounds, like. raps upon the flag of ,
,a house, have beep heard in, yarioul pla.

some'other localities for about two-years.

tong time, every, night, was finally heard
ikthe day time, and became , inttlligibla
Liftet. this wise (as related in the ,Tribune,)l

At length. •a. little,.Lirl [speaking to the

'do," and snapped her finger three times.
ShS was•i answered by • three raps. On

conaiiconvinced that these three filets there

sion or dixeption in the matter.
oats two weeks since, We were in com
pany w i:lt some persons who were getting
communications from this invisible.com
municator, when a Message was spelled
out to U 8 to the import that the matter
:should be made more public—that the time
.lead arrived for the people to investigate the
whole a tiiiir-Hhat it was it thing which
will ultimately become known to'nll men,
and that we should intinediately take mea
sures to have 'it investigated. The 'three
tions were ihen , minutely given by these
spirits, as they purport to he, and which
we are willing to believe, are, until we
have as much proof to the contrary as it
required to bring us to this conclusion.—
These directions will appear in the follow
in history, as they were fully and strict
ly tbllowed. The great object was to start
investigation and clear those who had been
hearing it for the last two years from the
imputation of fraud and deception.
Then follows a detailed account of the
investigations of various committees, yeti-
MN lectures in Rochester on the subject,
&c., and the names of the committees
which are given embrace many respecta
ble and influential gentlemen of that city.
Their .inveSii*ntions seem to have 'been
conducted in the presence of two, ladies,
.11 hb Were in the clairvoyant state; and a
number of citizens' and whether in the
Corinthian frail, the nail of the Sons of
teiriiperance, or in private dwellings,the
rapping upon the floor, or upon the wall,
or sotirtirries Upon the door or pavement,
was distinctly heard, and the hand . being
Placed neon the floor where the no ise was
heard, a jar was distinctly ad'. In this
.1.0,y written questions, unknown to any
but the writer, and somet i mes mental ques- .
lions, were all answered correctly by the
knocking; The different committees a
dopted various means to detect fraud in time
matter, such as standing the ladies in the
clairvoyant .state upon pillows, large plates
of.glass,4c., but the noise continued to,
be ,beard Whenever questions .were asked.
Finally mcommittee of ladies was appoin-,
ted to examine the persons of the young
women, to be sure that there were no fix
tures about , them that could produce the
sounds. They fuund nothing, but heard
the sounds distinctly even : When the young
Women were standing upbp pillows, with
out shoes,_and with their dresses tied tight
ly around their ankles.. The investigation
lasted several days, and all the commit
tees a g ree that there was no fraud. The
report concludes:
Thus the matter stands at present, and
whether it is only a remarkable.plienome
na which wills pass away with the present
generation, or with the persons who seem
now to be the medium of this extraordina
ry communication; or'whetfier it be the
commencement of a new era of spiritual
influx into the world ; it is certainly some
thing worthy the attention of men dean-.
dor and philosophy.

GENTLEMEN : I thank you for the hoa
r you have conferred upon Inc, by the
Fer of a public dinner; and • 'Mille de
e no.the invitation, which I trust you will
ex use mo for doing, I cannot withhold,
the xpreSSion of my feelings for such ri
tcsti tonial of regard from the dernoCiack
of th great city. I Shall' cherish it with
grate l recollection during life. ' -
' 1 think you' Also, for the fitvorable
terms ik which you have been pleased to
allude 6 0 , my position' and services.--
These, 1 am very sensible, have few
claims fol\consideration but such as they
are derive 6 from your kind partittiity.
An emigrn t to the lArest in early •outh,the
better pcirtiok of my life has been' paSsed
in that 'groat kontest with nature in which
the forest has \given away raid an empire

i nificent creation% of human industry and
enterprise. Plra\ed in a geographical pa.
sitidti to exert a )owerful influence upon
the duration of thi confederacy 'of repub
i lies; attached to the, Union' , and the whole
Union, and attached ` equally to the, Pripet
ples of freedom and t'e the constitution by
which these are guarded and secured, .
should the time ever (k)inc—as I trust it
will not—and come . %%hence or why it
may, whenever dissolution shall find ad
vocates, end the hand of qolenee shall at
tempt to sever the bond triat holds us to
gether, the West will rise t p as one man
to stay a deed so fatal to the cause of lib
erty here and throughout th. world—aye,
and it will be stayed. uece-s can never
hallow the effort. -If we are nkt struck by
judicial blindness, we shall holi on to the
constitution with a tenacity (Hying time
and accident, thanking the God of our lit
thers and our own God for politic4ll insti
tutions which have secured to ust great
er measure of national prosperitylhan it
has ever been the lot of any people sefore
'lts to enjoy.
Nye have but one danger to fi_qir. As
• le military power and the gencral,corlup
-1 lion of

which historY attributes the fall of may
republics in ancient and Modern 'day s-41
believe, if
believe, they arc not the last, they nre A
lilting the last of the evils we have to ap.
prebend. Our future would be all the pa
triot could de.' 0, if that future contained
ie_64t rs
no other sect (danger than' these The
prophet 'act y of Washington foresim
Ind foretold the true danger which threat
ens us ; the danger of sectional interests
and passions arraying one portion.of the
1 tnion against another.
,A spirit of corn
promise was necessary to create this con
liideration, and it is equal's necessary 'to
- .
preserve it in itsintogrity and efficiency.—
When questiOns come deeply affecting the
country, and dividing it by geographical
lines, then comes the time of trial, which
no true American can contemplate without
anxiety. It is seldom that such issues
can be presented when mutual forbearance
is not dictated alike by duty and by wis
dom: If one-half of a great country, a
bandonding all other differences of opinion
is unanimous in its sentiments upon any
measure of internal policy, locally affec
ting itself, its citizens should 'meet from
their countrymen of the other section
kindness and not denunciation ; argument
and not recrimination; and a desire to re
concile conflicting opinions, as harmoni
ously as is compatible with the nature of
the controversy. No such views respect
ing their rights or their position can be so
held by an extensive community without
the existence of forcible considerations,
which call for careful inquiry and for a
wise as well as akind decision. - In this
spirit, should sectionalnueations be "diseus
sed ; and if they are so, they will bring
m
with the no danger, but will furnish ad
ditional, motives for union, and will 'contri
bute powerfully to our strength and pros
perity.
I am, gentlemen, with great. regard,
your obedient servant,

Last pvening the mutilated rem n ins of
a body supposed, to be those of Dr. Park
man, were found under the MediCal col
lege Where, he was last seen
,alive. At'
11 o'clock, PrOfesser Webster, Of the
Col
loge, waii arrested upon suspicion of
big committed the murder, and was lodged
in jail., When arrested he displayed the
greateSt agitation. The Wholp!atrair is a.
bout to undergo a rigid investigation..--
The evidence is believed to be wholly of a
circumstantial character.
A subsequent dispatch says that Dr.
l'arkman's remains are reported to have
been found in the Mcdieal College, in Dr.
Webster's private rod m, mostly burned.--
Dr. W. is now contTheill in the .Leverett
street jail.
[A NoTtt ottqwt;cit.
Saittrany excitement in
the city growing out of the arrest of Pro
fessor Webster, charged with the murder
of Dr. Parkman, is very great. About
the furnace efthe accused have been found
a jawbone, some buttnns, and some gold.
The discovery of the re mains was first
made by IG. Littlefield, a porter in the
college, who broke through a brick wall
into the private vault, to which none but
Mr. Webster had access. The friends of
the latter ,are,ponfident, of-his inocence of
the crime, but the evideli6e is thought suffi
ciently strong to hold hint for trial priivided
the remains can bo identified. The ex
citement prevaling to a very late hour, the
authoritieri,have :fOund it necessary to or
der out the military to prevent a popular
outbreak.
FARTUER DISCLOSURES.
BOSTON, Sunday Afternoon.
, Farther disclosures have been made to
daa,•, relating to the supposed murder• of
1)r. Parkman, but nothing positive has
been adduced to tbsten the charge of mur
der upon Professor Webster.
In the . Professor'S laboratory a chest
has been found, the.hoftem whieb c.ontniii
'ed further remains of a mutilated body.
,'the whole of the body, with the exception
'of the head, feet ,and arms, have been re
', covered, and the fragments arc being put
together in their true position.
The inquest wilt commence on Wednes
day next. The police assert that they
have further information against' the ac
cused, Which will not be divulged until the
sitting of the coroner's inquest.
Prom the peculiar shape of the limbs
after they had been, put together, there is
but little doubt that' they belonged to Park
= .
The accused, this morning, is qui
et and composed.
The militiary were out last night, but
no disturbance took place.
Where they Learn it.—"l don't see
\% here niy children learn such things," is
one of the nos' common phrases in a moth
ered Vocabulary. A little incident, which
we happened to be an eye witness to, may
perhaps help to solve the . enigma. We
smiled a little at the time, but we have
thought, a good deal of it since, and , we
trust not without profit.
"Bub," screamed out a little bright-eyed
girl, somewhat under six years of age, to a
youngster who was seated on the "curb
stone making hasty pudding of •the mud
in-the guttei • "Bub, you good-for-noth'-
ing little scampi- you come right into the
house this minute, or I'll beat you till the
skin' comes elf."
"Why, Angelina, Angelina; dear, what
de r you mean ? whore did 'you learn such
talk ?" exclaimed her mother, in a won
dering tone, ne she stood on.the steps cur
toiling torn Mend.
Angelina looked upyory innocently, and
answered— i'why Mother you see wo ere
playing, and he is my little boy, and- I am
scolding him, just as you did me 'thismor.
'ning,thet's all."
