Dear Sir. — In advices just received from St. Petersburg, I am requested to translate and forward to the Scientist for publication, the protest of the Honorable Alexander Aksakoff, Imperial Counsellor of Sute, against the course of the professors of the university respecting the spiritualistic investigation. The document appears, in Russian, in the ‘‘Vedemostji,” the official journal of St. Peters- t urgh. Thu generous, high-minded, courageous gentleman has done the possible, and even the impossible, in order to open the spiritual eyes of those incurable moles who fear the daylight of truth as the burglar fears the policeman’ “bull's eye.”
