I i Toe seanoe was held a* .the request of the' j 1 widow of tbe deceased, who ls a strong he? llerer In spiritualism, and who desired .to know whether bis spirit had taken its flight to the spirit land. Mrs. Kane, widow of Dr. Kane, and who was one of the celebrated Fox sisters, conducted the ghostly proceedings. A select circle of invited spiritualists "eat | around the coffin iii an unlighted room, and, amid an awful and impressive si len ce, the spirit of the departed war called on by the medium to state whether the deceased was in the spirit land. After. being thrice called upon | the dilatory spirit manifested itself In what the reporter calls "a soft, olear, musical voice," and gave a negative reply-an answer which, tbe medium ex? plained, meant that the spirit ot the deceased had not yet lett his body. Then the candles were lighted, and soma very poor verses, in the shape of a hymn, were sang by all present Thereafter, availing hersell of the opportunity, the medium called on the Bpi ri ts or some re? cently deceased notabilities-among them Professor Morse, James Fisk, Jr., Judge Mc Cunn and James Gordon Bennett-to respond. Mr. Bennett's spirit answered the call, and, after listening to some objurgatory remarks from the mediant, retired with the theatrical remark : " Thy will ls granted. Farewell. J Come and Join us In the spirit land." Take it j for allin all, this occurrence was one of tbe ghastliest and grimmest tissue's cf absurdities -not to say sacrileges-that has ever come before the public, even in connection with this incomprehensible belief la what is called Spiritualism. Iict Vs Reason Together. A leading article in the Courier of yester? day is devoted to an exposition of the man? ner in which the Tomllnson and the Moses Radicals have broken their pledge that they would improve the character of the mem? bers of the Legislature and the county offi? cers to be elected next Wednesday. The strictures of the Courier, while proper in the main, are not altogether just; nor can this paper admit that the Conservatives acted un? wisely in adhering to their determination not to nominate a State ticket With "the ? 'intelligence and the capital of tho State" moving ia "solid column," there would be a prospect of accomplishing a thorough re? form; but this is a combination which bas cot been made since the war, and of which there is no present prospect Practical men do not waste time in talking of what might have been, or of what they could do were the circumstances of the case wholly different They take things as they are, and make the best of them. This is the point to which, it is hoped, the Conaerva tives may be brought between this and elec? tion day. Upon the subject of the two legislative tickets nominated by the Charleston County Radicals, the Courier Bay a: Ia reference to the two tickets for the Legis? lature, Judged by acts and not by words, there is co hope oi reform ia either, or in a combi? nation o/ both. We cannot support either or both. The time ls too short for a convention of the people of the county. If there had been united counsel and action, this, in our judgment, could haw been accomplished, and victory attained. The question is, therefore, one exclusively for the peopie. It ls for them to say whether there shall be any other nomi? nations or not. If they choose, they can either by a call tor a mass meeting or otherwise, pre? sent a ticket which will indeed be the sign and the assurance of a real reform and good gov? ernment. The whole matter ls la the bauds or the people. It is for them to determine whether an honest effort shall be made to rescue the legislative councils from the lu comptent and In many Instances corrupt hands into which otherwise lt mast fall if the taxpaying citizens do not present some ticket which win afford security for right and hope for the future. To the passages which are Italicised, it ls desired to call the attention of the public They contain two postulates : 1. That the people of Charleston County can, in mass meeting or otherwise, present a legislative ticket which will be "the sign and the as "surance of a real reform and good gov? ernment" 2. That there is no hope of re? form io either the Bowen or the Mackey ! legislative ticket or in a combination of \ both tickets. Before going further, it is neceassary to clear up some ambiguous ex? pressions. It is assumed by THE NEWS that "the people" spoken of by the Courier are th a Conservative citizens of Charleston County1; lt is also assumed that the Courier believes that a ticket caa be nominated by tbe Conservative citizens which caa be elected. Tbe Conservatives must be "the "people" spoken of; because tbe Republi? cans have already made their nominations. There mast be a belief that a Conservative ticket can be elected; because, unless actual? ly elected, that ticket would be neither "the "sign" nor "the assurance" of "a real re "rorm." The fallacy of the first postulate is easily seen. Ia 1870 Charleston County was thoroughly canvassed; every ward in the city was well organized; stump-speakers aroused the enthusiasm of the people; there were Republicans OD the Conservative ticket; the Kadi cals were divided, as they are DOW; mooey was freely spent OD toa day of eleotioD ; there was a full vote, and a fair count Tbe result was that the average vote polled by the six highest candidates for the Legislature, upon the Reform ticket was 6741; while the average vote of the Bowen candidates was 11,050, and of the DeLarge candidates 3459. In taking the average, any candidates who were nomi? nated upon more than one ticket are omit- i ted. The total Radical vote, adding the ( DeLarge and Bowen votes together, was i 14,509, which was more ?han double the Re- t form vote. Does the Courier believe, and i can it give any good reason for believing, t that the Conservatives in 1872-without t Time, Money or Organization-can poll a ? considerably higher vote than they obtained t two years ago? Unless the Courier can a prove this, it mu9t admit that a Conserva- 1 ttve ticket however composed and nomi- \ nated, would be defeated, and would not, i therefore, be either ??the sign" or "the as- t "surance" of "a real reform and good gov- 1 "ernment" The second postulate of the Courier ia even more of a gratuitous assumption thao the first; so far as it conveys the idea that "a combination of both" the Mackey and Bowen Legislative tickets "holds ont no "hope of reform." THE NEWS haa presented lo the Conservative voters a ticket selected From the Bowen and Mackel tickets, which is better than either, of the "straight" Radical : i eke ts, and is considerably better tb aa the egislative ticket elected in 1870. The two ;ickets are placed side by Bide, that the i n )eople may see and judge for themselves : J o The Old and the Kew. 1870. 1872. Boxeen Radicals. Hobsons Choice. T. HURLEY, T. HURLEY, JOHN B. PENNIS, J. F. GREENE, " J. J. HARDY, H. C. MINOTT, C. J. ANDELL, C. J. ANDELL, O. R. LETT, 0. B. LEVY, W. R. JERVEY, N. T. SPENCER, H. H. HUNTER, JOHN E. CLYDE, ABE SUTH, E. J. ADAMS, A. P..FORD, STEPBEN BROWN, J.W.LLOYD, S. D. Ena BB LL, B. A. BOSEUON, B. AV BOHEMOS-, T. A. DAT?, 6. CANNON, W. E. ELLIOTT, J. L. WALKER, A. LOGAN, B. B. ARTSON, E. MICKEY, C. F. NORTH, R. BRYAN, C. H. VANDERHORBT, W. C. GLOYBR, J. A. WILLIAMS, P. P; HEDGES, W. G. PINCKNEY. A glance at the two tickets is sufficient to show that Hobson's Choice is superior to the Bowen ticket ol 1870. It has six whites in place of four. Poor of the candidates-1 Messrs. Harley, Levy, Bosemonand Andell ar? renominated. The remainder are head and shonldera above the flame number of candidates on the ticket of 1870. Hob son's Choice baa a fair prospect of being elected, and the names upon it Indicate that it does hold out a ?'hope of reform." There is another consideration. The casting of the Conservative vote for any candidates other than those who, being upon a Republi. can ticket, will receive Hie Mackey or the Bowen vote, ensures the election of the straight Bowen or Mackey ticket. That of Mackey is bad enough ; that of Bowen, as a whole, is infamous. To defeat them both, as wholes, and elect their best men is, in itself, a substantial and practical reform-it is im? proving the character of the Charlea ton dele? gation to the General Assembly, and, if that ls not reform, and a "hope of reform," lt is hard to say what is. TBE NEWS cannot think that the Courier opposes the Hobson 'a Choice ticket because it was proposed by this paper, without con? sultation with any candidate, and without conferring with aoy old or yoong politician, Conservativo or Radical; nor can it be sup? posed that the Courier is so impracticable, or so prejudiced, as to refuse to support the only candidates who can be elected-merely because those candidatos are not everything the people could wish. This paper has spoken frankly and deliberately, and if the Courier cannot answer the reasons which THE NEWS gives for opposing a Conserva? tive nomination, and for advocating Hob-, son's Choice, it is reasonable to expect that it will give THE NEWS its valuable aid in the e iib rt to secare what is "the largest practl "cal measure ef local and legislative reform." The Potrera ot Federal Supervisors of .Election. There is some misapprehension as to the powers of Federal supervisors of election ander the new bayonet law, and a statement has obtained currency that the same au? thority to order arrests by tbe Federal deputy marshals, which was granted nuder the acts of 1870 and 1871, ls conferred upon the additional supervisors appointed in confor? mity with the supplementary provisions of 1872. This is a Berions mistake, and we advise our friends throughout the State to see that no power is usurped on elec? tion day by the Federal authorities. Tho old enforcement laws authorized the ap? pointment of supervisors and deputy mar? in?is in cities having twenty thousand in? habitants. The supplementary provision, smuggled into the sundry civil service ap? propriation bill, while extending the power JO appoint supervisors to all counties and parishes wherein ten good citizens should petition for the appointment, expressly snacts "that nothing In this section shall be "so construed as to authorize the appoint .'ment of any marshals or deputy marsha's "in addition to those heretofore authorized "by law," and that "the supervisors herein "provided for shall have no power or au? thority to make arrests or to perform other "duties. than to be in the immediate pres "ence of the officers holding the election, "and to witness all their proceedings, in? cluding the counting of the votes and the "making of a return thereof." The Recalcitrant Seven. The following card is printed in the Re? publican of yesterday evening : Bia-We, the undersigned, whose names ap? pear upon a county legislative ticket, publish? ed in THE DAILY HEWS of the 7th instant, beg most respectfully, but firmly, to state that our names were used by the parties originating said ticket without our knowledge or consent, no one having been authorized to nae our names In any such connection whatever. Having been nominated by the Republican Convention that assembled at Hibernian Hall on the 25th ult., we feel lt lo be our bounden duty to support the tloaet nominated at that convention, and that alone. We therefore wholly disavow any sympathy with the move? ment set on loot in THE NEWS ol yesterday, and decline to suffer or permit our names lo be placed on any ticket other than that put rorth by the Convention of the 25th of Sep? tember.

THE NEWS did not ask any candidate ipon the Hobson's Choice ticket to support .hat ticket; nor did it expect that either Bowenites or Mackeyites wonld look with fa? vorable eye upon a proposition which may consign all but their least objectionable ?oininees to a political death from which .here is no resurrection. The Boitera1 Choice s the best ticket that there is any chance of ilecting, and it is pat forward as a sugges ion and guide to the Conservatives-not to >lease the Radicals. The Conservatives viii vote for whom they please, whether the even signers of the card like it or not THE ?EWS desires to see the seven elected next Vednesday, together with the other candi lases of Hobson's Choice, and if they then do heir duty faithfully, as pnblic officers, THE ?EWS will rest content.
