A GLIMPSE OF THE SHAKERS. Aunther of our are private visits was paid
to sxe cateemed friends, whom he had knowD
in Edinburgh, and whose residence was in a
beautiful valley far away in the State of New Tork. On our way to their house our atten. tion was arrested by a staring red building, four storeya ia baight, which might have pan ed for a factory but for the size of tlie windows, We learned afterwards, that it was a. Shuker establishment. Our friends being on neigh bour y terma with them, we went to pay there a visit. Our readers will be aware that the Shakers are peculiar peuple, who abatsin from marriage, and recognise no family ties except that of brother and sister. Their name ia derived from the bodily movement prac tised at their worabin; it begins with their beating time with their hands und feet. in singing, and ends in a kind of dance: or shaking movement. This, however, ia tot such in keeping with their habits of life, which are remarkabla for the suppression of nl emotion, and the absence of all presion.. Mr. Hepworth Dixon has given rather a Tavourable account of them in his New America." I am sorry to say that the opinio I was led to form of them was not so favourable

Soon after. I travelled with a Shaker pricat in a muilway car. We sat next each other, and bad a good deal of conversation and discussion. He argued that the world was over-peopled--that war and pestilence, sheekad over-population, but that it was better that it. should be checked on their principles-by mean roluotarily abstaining from marriage. I said that, in that vast country, there. esemed, little chance of over population for generatione; be BL MARING in all its branches at his old replied it was best to begin in time. He urged place in Daddell Street, and solicita the patron that what they aimed at was, to induce men to age of the Public. overcome the lower part of their nature in order to cultivate the higher. He did not wish men to adopt. their principles, but only those who deemed single life to be a higher and holier condition than married. He claimed that they were following the example of the early Church, which was a virgin Cburok, and had a community of goods. Our Lord told the young wan to sell all that he had, and give to the poor; and that was what the Shakers did. They divided everything among their own family- Sunday Mayams
