Wlll cure the sick in this world. or. if they
will be cured at. all, and to describe those
that commit murder or theft sufficiently
well to trace them to their whereuhouts. In
the late robbery of widow Smith’s sloop,
Capt. Rollins who sells her. determined to
not leave a stone unturned in searching out
the facts. sent. this man to mediums in New
York at an expense of fifteen dollars. Tho
iollowieg is whnt he brought front them on
paper :—
Question—Who took the sloop?
Answer—Name does not come to me yet.
They took it free south course around a
point of land.
Q—Is it the one I have in my mind ?
A—It is.
Q-Is it Charley or Jack?
A—Thcro is two together, there has Jack.
the man with him is old, wears clothes that
looks like buckskin. '
Q—Whnt did they do with the oysters?
A—Cnn‘t trace them any further than one
south around the point of land—one of the
party has been back since. Charley come up
to you.
Q.-—Is Charley a colored mm)?
A—Cau‘t get his name any farther than
Oh The lllllll that was with him is
bad potted with small pox—young nigger
about fifteen years old. Nigger culled Jock.
sometimes Charley.——-you can score a great

torty~fivc to fifty years, short and thick,fncc
covered with brown whiskers, brown hair.
Another. tall and slim. very dark. I think
one of their names is Joe. A tall and slim
mun, sandy complexion bought tliooystors.
The party that took the sloop anti oysters
its is now well-known were two well dressed
young men. were boys, and the above does
not dt‘scrlbe them in one particular. If our
neighboring Spiritualist misses the way to
the good world to conue as for as he did in
tracing rogues. I think few will want to fol—
low him on spiritualism. We may be
thought too severe, for my own purl I think
it might be excused in darker ages when
people were burnt to the stake for being
called witches. but that such a blitc sud
