SPIRITUALISM.—Mr. S. G. Finney says:—

"The Catholic Church is a stupendous wrong—a gigantic iniquity; it is the mother of ignorance, superstition, bigotry and intolerance. The Protestant church was a step in advance, but it would fail to accomplish any great purpose, because it is not firmly established upon a true principle. It is confined in its views, concentrated in its principles, and bigoted in its Christianity. And the speaker held that there must be another and a truer religion. The demand for such existed, and he thought it was answered, the want supplied, by 'Harmonial Philosophy,' of which he is an advocate."
