THE SPIRIT WORLD.

TERRESTRIAL CONDITIONS,

London, Feb. 10. The_ latest contribution to the spiritualistic discussion, the increase of which is arouang some concern and hostility among promirent churchmen, especially Anglicans, appears in the "Weekly Dispatch." The Rev. Vale Owen, vicar of Or ford, claims to have received a series of detained spirit messages, describing the. different realms or zones of light and darkness to which the dead pass. The messages were expressed in unconventional and homely terms, and depict the- odd association of spirit life with the continuation of mundane interests, such as running, college, and schools, musical instruments, a.nd factorl--ies. The environment includes cities, large buildings, gardens, and familiar fauna and flora.

One female spirit says: "Our home is beautifully appointed within and without, with two baths and a music room.''

The dress question is also discussed, but it is noteworthy that the messages do not mention the' Deity's share of life i-i the new realms.
