About twelve o'clock I looked at the ra"d'e; there appeared some thing like a large bowl behind it, with a point towards the candle; the candle was flaming very bright, and there ap- Feared a ring as red as scarlet, circled round the middle of the flame; immediatelx there appelned a hand as white as SHOW, which came out between the bowl and the candle, and pointed towards me : I trembled to see it, but was answered _ 4e FEAR NOT : IT IS I." I was then ordered to put on my glasses, and the band appeared the second time, more brilliant thin before ; but then the flame of the candle seemed parted in two, and looked in a different manner than the first, hut burnt very bright. The hand was pointed to -wards me the second time, as white as snow, and a red cuff wail upon the wrist." Curiosi•y Navin; led me to the Chapel on . Sunday last, I was astonished at behdding such a numerous assemblage of people; whether drawn together by the charm of novelty, or inwardly affected with the eloquent appeals of Christian doi trines of the preacher, I know not. The following, hoW ever, is a specimen of the lon tissue of falsehood and blas phemy, with which the auditors at this Chapel ate daily gulled. by the Rev. Mr.Toter:— " Brethren, I am ready to take my sacrament oath, that m As has s: en or spoken to .Joanna Southcolt. since Au . gust ISIS." The fact is, that many persons since that time have been. admitted to the company of - Joanna, and have equally received their seals from her. This falsehood, how ever, is intended to persuade her proselytes, that the child with which she professes to be pregnant; is• the offspring of the Holv Ghost. Again, " The world wit! be soon con• 'winced of the truth of our doctrine, for our spiritual mother will bring forth the true Messiah, before the 12th of next January." The remainder of the sermon was nu a par with this—made up of the Most glaring absurdities and undoubted blisphetny. The following has been given to us as a correct descrip tion Of the cradle of Joanna Southcote :—" A child's crib, three feet six inches by two feet; of satin-wood, with brass trellis; side and foot board ; turned feet, carved and gilt, on castors ; a swing cot, inside caned, to swing on centre ; at each end gilt mouldings, top and bottom for gold letters ; a canopy cover,. with blue silk, carved and gilt under it; a gold hall and dove, and olive branch; green stars at each Corner gilt ; blue silk furniture; ah embroidered celes'ial crown, with Hebrew characters; gold letters; . a lamb's w oo l tnattres, with white fus'ian down lied; down pillow, and two superfilie blankets." : —lt is asserted, upon good authority, that not less than lOW. have been expended in pap spoons, and wilier articles of silver, fur the use of this expected ►n Lilt.
