The Shakers
Among the many forms, for good or evil,
'which the natural religious sentiment in man
l laas taken, there is none More calculated to
'excite astonishment than that - of the, "Sha
kers," or "Shaking Quakers," as they are in
differently and vulgarly called. The rise of
Shakerism is -a marvel that dispassionate
minds yet fail fully to comprehend. Its pro
gress excites unaffected pity by the persecu
tions it at first encountered, and its present
state challenges sorrowful inquisition by the
persevering self-abnegation it enjoins, the
simplicity, so worthy of a better source, it
secures, and the mysterious economy upon
which it is conducted.
The Shakers have still several prosperous
communities in the United States. The first
of these was formed in 1776 by Mother Ann
Lee, at Watervleit, about seven miles from
Albany, New York. The influence of Moth
er Lee was secured upon her earliest follow
ers by the belief in her divine mission, and
the claim that the second offering of Christ
had been fulfilled in her. With thnshock
lug delusion of this belief we have nothing
to do. The perversion of a supposed proph
ecy is manifest in the expression, and its ap
propriation to the purpose indicated only
shows how closely border the confines of de
lusion and blasphemy.
Since the Shakers were first organized in
New York, three other societies have been
established in other parts of that State, two
in Connecticut, four in Massachusetts, two in
New Hampshire, four in Ohio, and two in
Kentucky.
The Shaker Society in Mercer county, Ky.,
was established in 1807, shortly after or du
ring the "Kentucky revival." It now em
braces five families and between three and
four hundred members. Two of these fami
lies are termed receiving families, into which
persons who propose to join the society pass
a probationary season. The three other fam
ilies have passed to a higher order, at the
head of which there are two members, who
hold the property iu perpetual trust, and
age the business of the society. There are
also two male and two female members de
nominated the ministry, who are consulted
in all important spiritual and temporal mat
ters. They claim authority from the Scrip
tures for their peculiar mode of worship,
-which is chiefly by singing and dancing.—
They are spiritualists according to the mod
ern acceptance of the term, and profess to be
guided in many of their affairs by special
revelation from the spirit wort I. To j adge
them according to the Scripture standard'by
their fruits," there are no people living more
strictly honest, upright and virtuous, a.nd who
live in greater love and harmony one with an
other ; and we believe they constitute the on
ly organized body that has been long sus
tained, when the property is held in common
among its members, but with them the great
ruling passion of the human family, selfish
ness, appears to be entirely subdued.
The Shakers neither marry nor are given
in marriage. Their numbers -are increased
by the addition of orphan children from the
country and 'the various cities around. These
children are brought up with the greatest
- tenderness and care, and are educated in all
the branches usually taught in common
schools.
Of the peculiarities of religions tenets held
by the Shakers, little is absolutely known.—
They have, it is stated, what is called a Bi
ble, but whether it is a single book generally
received by them, or each community has a
special collection of revelation, we cannot
say. A Lowell (Mass.) paper speaks of a
Bible recently examined, belonging to one of
their communities, a book not often allowed
to be seen by the world's people. It is enti
tled, " A Holy ; Sacred and Divine Roll from
the Lord God of Heaven to the Inhabitants
of Earth—Revealed in the Society at New
Lebanon, Columbia County, State of New
York, U. S. of America." It pretends to be
a revelation, and the testimony of eleven
mighty angels is given, who attended the
writing of the roll. One of the angels is
named Con-sole-teac Tao-mops-hue, and an
other Preline-ves-ten-varen-veine. It is bound
in yellow according to the order from on high.
The book appears to contain passages from
Scripture, altered, amended, enlarged, or cur
tailed, with original additions or improve
ments, as they are probably deemed, to suit
the peculiar notions of the disciples of Ann
Lee. It is a very curious volume—even more
remarkable, though of less pretended anti
quity, than the . Mormon Bible. A copy is
ordered to be sent to every King or Poten
tate in Christendom, and one sent to the Gov
ernor of Canada, some time since, was return
ed or refused.—Baltimore American.

Dr. James 11. Bogardus, of Kingston, Uls
ter county, New York, died at the Girard
House on Sunday, after a very short illness,
under singular circumstances.
The deceased was about forty-three years
old, of the highest respectability, and ranked
with the first in his profession in the county
in which ho resided. For about two years
he had been engagedto Miss Isabella Hamil
ton, a young lady, also a resident of Kinston,
and on two occasions, days were fixed for
their nuptials, on each of which a death pre
sented a barrier to the consummation of their
wishes. On the former instance, the death
of his brother's child rendered a postpone
ment of the day of their contemplated mar
riage necessary, and both the Doctor and his
affianced bride attended his funeral. On the
second occasion fixed for their union, Miss
Hamilton's sister lost a child,
.and again they
both attended a funeral service instead of
their own marriage ceremony.
On Monday of last week Dr. Bogardus
came to the city and put up at the jirard
House in Chambers street, and on retiring,
complained to Mr. Davis, with whom he was
well acquainted, that he was quite unwell.—
The following day, not feeling able to leave
his bed, Dr. Sayre and other eminent physi
cians were called in and consulted. After
several days' attendance, they came 'to the
conclusion that there . was something more
than disease of the body in the case of their
patient, and they' intimated to him thq fact,
whereupon Dr. Bogardus frankly informed
his medical advisers that he was deeply at
tached to a young lady, to whom he was to
be married on Tuesday (yesterday,) that
their marriage had been twice frustrated by
death, and he now feared that his own ill
ness would prove a third interposition of his
happiness.
lir. Sayre perceiving the sad effects which
the fear of another disappointment had upon
his mind, suggested the propriety of sending
a telegraph despatch to Miss Hamilton to
come to New York without delay, for the
purpose of carrying out the wishes of Dr. Bo
gardus. The despatch was accordingly sent,
and Miss Hamilton arrived about 4 o'clock
on Sunday morning, and as early as possible
some of their friends, residing in Newark,
were sent for to attend the marriage ceremo
ny. At 1 o'clock the same day Df. Sayre
visited his patient, and found him so much
better that lie considered that it would be un
necessary for him to attend again. 'At half
past 2 o'clock the parties were united, and
Dr. Bogardus expressed his thankfulness in
being enabled to carry out his intentions of
marriage to the lady in question. The friends
then retired for a few moments for the pur
pose of partaking of some refreshments.—
He then remarked that he felt so much bet
ter that lie would get up, and at once procee
ded to raise himself in bed; his bride per
ceiving his efforts to rise, went to assist him,
only to discover that he was expiring in her
arras. She instantly sprang to the bell and
rang for assistance; but before their friends
could reach the room he was a corpse, and
yesterday afternoon his remains were taken
to Kingston on board the steamer North
America, for interment: The deceased was
a member of the Kingston Lodge of Free
Masons, and was very much esteemed by hiS
brother members, and in accordance with his
previously expressed wish, he will be atten
ded by the Order to his resting place.
During his sojourn at the Girard House,
Mr. Davis the proprietor, and his gentleman
ly assistants, treated him with the greatest
kindness and attention.—..Y. I: Herald, _N - or.

The ship Cuban, of this port, Capt. Gallo
way, which arrived here from Demarara on
Wednesday met with a most extraordinary
adventure on her homeward voyage. About
0.20 P. M. of the 16th instant,. (nautical time,)
when in lat. 43° 40' N., lon. 29° 50' W., the
ship, running before the wind at the rate' of
91 knots an hour, received such a severe
shock that she keeled over several strakes,
and her way was completely stopped while
the men, who were sleeping on the starboard
berths of the topgallant forecastle, were
thrown out upon their chests. Shortly after
the shock an immense whale rose at a short
distance fr, m. the ship's quarter, and after
laying motionless for a short time, as if
stunned by the blow, swam toward the ves
sel as if with the intention of repeating the
attack. It was a moment of intense anxiety
on board, but, 'fortunately, when close to the
stern, the monster wheeled round in the op
posite direction and dived, throwing with his
tail, as he did so, a quantity of blood and
water on board. It was a moonlight night,
and the bulk of the huge animal could be
seen distinctly towering to a considerable
height above' the 'surface. When he dived,
his tail appeared to those on board to he from
30 to 40 feet out of the water. The pumps
were sounded, but the ship was found to be
making no water. From the force of the
blow-and the fact that the second mate thought
he heard a whale blowing a short time before
the shock occurred, it is supposed that the
fish made a regular attack upon the ship,
and was not come in contact with while
asleep., An estimate of its immense size and
power may be formed from the fact of its
bringing to a stand still a deeply laden ship
of 500 tons, sailing at.the rate Of nearly 10
knots an hour.— Greemodb Advertiser.
The Kansas Funds—Value of Property
A Kansas correspondent of the New York
Daily Times says; .
The news of Buchanan's election seems to
be fully confirmed, and we are already con
soling ourselves. We shall not leave Kansas
any sooner than if Fremont were elected; nor
sell what we possess here any lower.
Thaddeus Hyatt, of New York - , President
of the National Committee, arrived on Satur
day. He gives a very flattering report of the
financial condition of the National Commit
tee, with an assurance that the best part of
it all is still future. He, with all friends of
Kansas, feels to lament that hypocrisy, du
plicity, blasphemy, and sacrilege, (for it will
bear all those epithets,) are traced inthe con
duct of some of the professed friends of our
cause. It seems like paning the altars—al
most like robbing the dead—to find any per
son educated in . the free air of the North,
who is disposed to speculate with or defraud
the suffering and destitute in our midst.
Another correspondent of the same paper
says:
A friend of mine, .a Free State man all
over, and one of our (State) Supreme Judges,
has a claim of 160 acres—adjoining town--
for which he paid, eighteen months since,
$1,650. He can sell the same land to-day
for s33,ooo—an advance of over $30,000 in
one year and a half.

The Marriage of Senator Douglas.
Thell ride and her Appearance—fudge Doug-
las, 4e., (f x., &c
WASILINGTON, Nov. 20.--Our Thanksgiving
to-day was signalized, at 2 o'clock, by the
marriage of Senator Douglas, of Illinois, to
Miss Ada Cutts, of Washington, after which
the married couple took the cars for their
future residence, in Chicago.
The bride was accompanied to the altar by
several bridesmaids; but the Senator, being
a widower, went alone. Only a few of his
personal friends, including Gen. Shields and
Senator Slidell, were present. The mar
riage ceremony was performed by Father
Byrne, of the Roman Catholic Church, in the
religion of which the bride was educated, at
Georgetown Nunnery. Senator Douglasbira
self is not known to have decided feelings
towards any religious faith, though some of
his friends draw a favorable inference from
his recent land donation to a Baptist College
in Chicago.
Three months ago, the Judge, as Mr. Doug
las is familiarly , called, called at the house
of his friend Senator Bright, who lives just
opposite Mr. Cutts, and it so happened that
Miss Cutts was there also. Immediately
after she left, Senator Bright remarked to
his compeer, ‘.` Douglas its really a shame
you're not married. You ought to find a
wife at once, and there's the lady for you."
The suggestion seemed to strike Douglas
with the force of novelty. Accordingly, pro
curing an introduction from Mr. Bright to
the house over the way, he soon found the
recommendation more than borne out by the
actual reality, in the personal arid niental
charms of Miss Cutts. He became a fre
quent visitor, and the engagement was made
in the latter part of the summer, though it
did not transpire until a few weeks ago.
Miss Cutts may be twenty-two years of
age. She is a cotemporary and member of
the circle of belles, all now married off, in
cluding Adelaide Smith, Florence Greenhow,
and others who once formed a great attrac
tion at the reception and balls at Washing
ton. Her father, James Madison Cutts, an
officer in.one of the departments at Washing
ton, is a nephew of Mrs. President Madison,
and enjoyed a considerable intimacy with
his uncle, in whose family he resided. In
politics he is an old-line Whig, though not
long since he volunteered a communication
in the Union, testifying to the good opinion
which President Madison held of Mr. Buchan
an. He is a gentlemanly, quiet man, and
much liked in Washington society.

Enter Deacon Holy-dom, Speaking as he
Enters :
"Excuse me, ma'am, for entering without
knocking, but I have, as you may be aware,
a great interest in the cause of religion and
morality, and I have came to ask you—(sup
pose your husband is not at home?") "No,
sir." "Well ma'am I called to ask you how
your husband was going to vote at the next
election?"
" Well, Deacon Holy-dom, my husband has
always been a Democrat, and I presume he
will vote for Buchanan."
" Yes, ma'am, but your husband is,, I be
lieve, a moral and religious man, aucl we sup
posed all the pious people would of course
vote for Fremont and Freedom."
" is Mr. Fremont a pious man, Deacon
Holy-dm:a?"
" Oh, yes, ma'am ; Mr. Fremont is a very
pious man ; his whole life has been devoted
to the cause of freedom and piety, and there
is great danger if Mr. Buchanan is elected,
that slavery will be introduced into Rhode
Island, and these dear little children of yours
will be placed in a state of bondage !"
Here Deacon Holy-dm puts his handker
chief to his right eye, while he looks at the
lady with the left.
" Do you really think so, deacon ?"
"My dear madam, there is no doubt of it,
and I sincerely hope you will do all in your
power to induce your husband to leave the
wicked party with which he has hitherto as
sociated, and vote with us. How does the
woman's husband vote who lives in the next
house ?"
" 0, he's a Democrat, too."
"Indeed, ho* shocking ! Is her husband
at home ?"
" No; he's at work."
" Well, I'll call on her, then ; but before I
go allow me to leave you a document which
contains an account of the mariner in which
a poor woman in Kansas had her tongue pul
led out of her mouth and tied around her
neck !"
" Why, Deacon Holy-dom, that would be
horrible! but how is it possible?"
0, it is true, ma'am ; it is published in
all the moral and religious papers of the coun
try, and I will vouch for every word they ut
ter. Good morning, ma'am !" And Deacon
Holy-dom reports at the next business meet

to him, and her husband would go in strong
for "Fremont and Jessie," and the cause of
morality generally.—Boston, Post.
