Excerpt from Mysteries, or Glimpses of the Supernatural: Containing Accounts of the Salem Witchcraft, the Cock-Lane Ghost, the Rochester Rappings, the Stratford Mysteries, Oracles, Astrology, Dreams, Demons, Ghosts, Spectres, &C., &C As the world is filled with Mysteries which are Real, so it is overrun with those which are False; it is not easy to know what is True and what False. The senses are easily deceived, and it is only by investigation and comparisen - analysis and synthesis, that we can hope to arrive at a knowledge of the Law under which appear ances may be classed, and by means of which they may be tested. It seems certain that Man changes from age to age in his beliefs and knowledges; it seems equally cer tain that God does not change, but is the same yesterday, to-day, and forever, and as he has done so he now does.
