{{Style S-Small capitals|Bulwer’s}} novel “Zanoni,” which is one of the most fascinating he ever wrote, embodies a great deal of information concerning the claims of the occultists which should be read by every intelligent Spiritualist.

... | By a letter from Calcutta, we learn that Spiritualism is now being inquired into and adopted by the most enlightened and educated portion of the Hindoo community. Many skeptics and Brahmos, hitherto with hovering doubts and uncertainties, are fast adopting its sublime creed. It has found a congenial soil in the Hindoo mind, and the day is not far distant when it will be the creed and faith of the thinking portion of the people. The planchette has become very popular there and the excitement among the people at its first introduction was considerable. Many persons there have witnessed its remarkable workings and many to satisfy their curiosity have ordered its manufacture. Two of the respectable stationers and booksellers in Calcutta have sold about ten thousand within a short time, which alone is evidence of the general interest in the subject of Spiritualism. | ||
