Progress of Spiritualism.

ON this subject we clip the following from the Banner of Light, Boston. And what it says of Boston is true of other places, on both sides of the Atlantic.
"The cause of Modern Spiritualism is progressing rapidly everywhere, notwithstanding the slurs of the secular and the innuendoes of the denominational press. Mediums are being developed all over the country; public meetings are increasing in various sections, and the people generally are becoming more and more alive to the importance of a fuller knowledge of the Hereafter than has been vouchsafed them in the past. People generally would be astonished were they to know how many private mediums there are in this city alone, not enumerating the public ones. These mouthpieces of the angels are in the families of the opulent as well as in the humble residences of the poor. Thus "the bread of life" is freely given to the hungering multitude in lieu of the husks that are offered by old theology."
