An Infidel Community Organized. We have received several copies of a strange journal, issued at Mottville, Onondaga county, New York, by a new social organization, who call themselves the “* Skeneateles Community.” This singular community is founded on open and avowed infidel principles—opposition to Christianity, and all other religions—for they leok upon Christ and Moses as on the same level with Mahomet and Buddah. They muster nearly one hundred persons of both sexes—occupying and cul- tivating a farm of several hundred acres, situated on the shores of the lovely lake of Skeneateles, in Onondaga county, in western New York. They publish a journal weekly, called the Communitist, ta which appear all their views, doctrines, and movements, Annexed we give a number of most strange and singular extracts, exhibiting their views and actions. This community had its origin in the efforts of John A. Collins, who is a believer in this new system of socialism, derived partly from Fourier, and other socialists in Europe. These people torm an isolated community among themselves. ‘They marry, and are given in marriage—but only as long as they see fit—they have all property in common —and express, openly, every opinion in religion, or philosophy, that they believe to be true. This is truly infidelity in a state of organization —and, during the next few years, many new theories, and new movements will be attempted all overthe country. Mormonism and Millerism are too ignorant, and too vulgar for the times. The Skeneateles formation is the most startling of all. Love—Marriage. Love, in the most comprehensive sense of the term, is that universal good will which flows out in acts ef kind- ness towards all that come withiu the sphere of ita influ- ence. Ina restricted sense, itdenotes the attachment which is felt between two persons of the different scxes, beyond mere friendship. This more restricted meaning of the word has also two different senses : sometimes to desig- aate that strong and permanent affection wtic! steadily seeks the good of its object, at other times, it signifies no more than the Sooner. attachment arising from mere animal desire. In this last and lowest sense of the term, ‘ove can be considered no more than a blind instinct, a selfish propensity. ‘That persons mey act up to their duty in the marriage relation, weck erring nature stands in need of every pos- sible guard. Thus from time immemorial, we have neard of the plighted faith between lovers, and its solem- aization in the presence of those whom they most vene- cate. Imay betold that it is absurd to promise to love because our sffections are not always is our powel With all due deference to the exaisple of those who have gone before me, I must say, that the pledge of “ loving ull death parts” the affianced pair, seems susceptible of improvement. Love, it is true, has its appropriate ob- jects. We naturally love that which is lovely. So far san object is presented tothe mind in the light of a hateful one, we cannot loveit, But love is partially un- control of the will. One of the parties in married in his or her power to cherish or to obliterate the feelings of love, according as their attent:on is habi- tually turned towards the excellencies or the faults of the other. It is, to a very great extent at least, in one’s er to restore harmeny where it has been interrupt overcoming evil with good. This is the grand pan which, if perseveringly applied, is destined to cure the we , by aces morai maladies that have so long poisoned the founde- tions of domestic, as well as every other department of c parties to auman life. A promise between the affianced treat my worst enemy with kindn oehavior might be so base as to cither love or reg) Ican show him my self-reapect, jadue to allaround me by act ap to every hi le engagement, though he may have wholly swerved frem them. There is one species of slavery that ia not accounted dishonorable, viz: that of being a slave to one’s word. At least, if any one deems ita diehonor, it has not been my misfortune to be ac- quainted with him, and to learn his character in that re- spect. ite length of my residence in the community has been tyear. My opportunities for observation hav+ been as good, perhaps, av those of any one init. ering that tine ny attention has been habitually, and anxiously directed o whatever in manners and character seemed calculate1 to strengthen society. I will now state a few general tacts in relation to the subject before us, leaving others to iraw their own inferences. For the past year there has deen on an average, a dozen families of married persons cesiding here Ican safely say that no exhibitions of un- ‘cindnegs has been made in my presence between a man aad his wife in any of its forms—am satisfied that scarcely any thing of the kind has occurred at this place. The tverage number of old and Read, Fhe the year would fall between sixty and Lend nit & ‘ith the single rs: (have become weil acquainted. The general behaviour of the young of both sexes is marked by decorum. Have never heard an ocscene song Li Soap heat eb any ex- eression of double entendre. The songs used among a are allowed to furnish the best indices of charac- ter, Those commonly sun; , partake of the spirit of che varivns moral enterprizes in which the generality ef its members have been engaged, as the temperance, anti- slavery, dietetic, and above all, the social reform. ese. are occasionally interspersed with others ofthe narrative, descriptive, or seutimental kind. There is scarcely any ching aba hy of the light, the frivolous, and the low : such for instance, as the Jim Crow songs. In dress, there is a prevalent taste for plainness among sur females as well as others, much more than in com: mon society. Though prior to our assemblage at thi place, some of us, at times, attended ‘vanity fair,” the fondness of finery is fast dying away. One more view may be taken of manners here, which from its generality may beconsidered rather the expres. sion of opinion, than the assertion of general facts;—and that is, a comparison of the indications of character here with those of the Church. AstheChurch verily think hey do God service, by saying hard things of us, there is tuttle danger of our conceding too much in their fayor.— But there is no doubt in my mind, that so far as licentious. aess is concerned, the church is much more free from it chan the common mass of society—‘‘the werld” around them In speaking of the Church, reference is had in my mind to that with which I have been chiefly acquain- ted from my infancy, the various Protestant sects of New England, and New York. 1st So far as dress is indicative of modesty, the exam- ple here is in advance of the church. Qnd. In decorum of conversation, we are at least ona par with them. 3d. Inthe use of the combined powers of Music and Poetry for moral effect, we have the advantage. 4th. With regard to diet as evidence of moral purity, he advantage is allon the side of manners here, as no one of the numerous Churches has,asa Church issued its manifesto against the use of meat, grease, tea, coffee and the insiduows train of condiments, stimulants, and narco- tics, but appear contented under their bendage in Egypt, provided they can have the use of its flesh-pot: R 8. ORVIS. Organic Remains. The language of science is finally becoming firm, de- sided, and imperious, in regard to truths which lie at the very ioundation of natural religion; and which, in their admission, strike a deadly blow at the root of all the su- perstitions on earth. We intend, in this article, to retouch a anbject heretofore presented to our readers, ‘but m such 1 manner as to make it interesting and instructive, and highly calculated to advence the great and good cause in which, re engaged. ing our position, we would observe, that we me idea of the wreck of former ages, when informed that the immense masses of coal a over extensive regions, of countries of marble, chalk, limestone, are animal or vegetable matter ; that all rock is originally the same, and has begn made to assume its various form, color, density, and specific gravity, 10 con- sequence of external agencies, as volcanic fire, electrici- ty and water, effectii chemical solution and condensa- ton ; oF else, leavin, precipitate and more slowly as- sume its present form ; and from the fact that the whole earth now visible hus evidently been thrown up frem the bottom of the sea. Not only islands, as Great Britain, but continents, the loftiest mountains, containing marine effluvia which had once evidently with them asa bed, rested for ages beneath the ocean, The evidences that there had been three distinct periods of vest duration, are the following :— The fossel remains "in each, are distinct petrified re- mains of a vast variety of animals and plants embedded in solid rock, evidently in a state of solution at the time they received these remains. That these remains have been d jed under the same circumstances at distinct intervals, separated b jeries of ages of vast duration,” is evident, us prima facie evidence ; since it is manifest that the first, second and third series could have fiourish- ed and been deposited in no othermanner. Each is a vo- iume of “authentic records.” Itisno lusus nature. Ne- cure cannot have deceived universal A creating three distinct ions of organic remains. Naturalists and anatemists, chemists and per. cannot be de. ceive ene animals have lived and flonrished in sun- shine, on the herbs of the field, the beasts of the chase, or the fish of the sea, Three universal convulsions of the earth, after periods of vast duration, have followed each other; three periods of ages have succesaively followed, turing which, every thing has been adjusted fo a similar economy in day and nigh’, summer and winter, seed time and maturity.

The aera” of O'Conn or Triumph of ion. mn Ireland is crazy with joy at the unexpected liberetion ofher Liberator! So completely is she absorbed in this idea that every thing else Is forgotten in her transports ectacies. After years of hopeless struggle for jus- ) poor, scivree Ireland has achieved ove victory {the scales have turned in her favor, and she has nothing to look for in the future, but goodtortune. The world feels the shock; and with her the sympathetic cords that tind the human family together, vibrate in union it « matter of solid importance to all—acemmon cause—the trinmph of right ever might! What the course of the Irish people when an at tempt was made to intimitate them by stationing among them their impudent soldiery, or rather to provoke their natural ira bllity, ‘end thus lead them te commit some overt act, and thereby make a show e! which they thirsted to commence? taxed with a useless Viceroy and his court, a heavy thoric Church with its p incely livin thousand bayonets upon them; under ple- , with thirty-five these burdens with repeated provocations trom the British soldiery, they have tamely and quietly submitted. Even when hey saw O’Connell—the centre of Ireland, in whom all ir their hope concentrated, torn from them, and under false pretences, thrust into prison, they made no noise—they got up no exciting meetings to harangue the people and exeite them to rebellion—nothing of the kind; but to use O’Connell’s language, ‘In the hundred thousand strength they were as the playful lamb, that crops the herbage as it passes along;” again, “Ireland was never so tranquil as at the present moment. Never was her people so peuceful or so docile.” And what is the result? The great—the boasting court of England succumbs; reverses her decision; O'Connell is free! and Re} of the Union certain! What has done the mighty work ! What has achieved the end for which Ireland has grooned, and sweat, and struggled, and peti- tione: for years? Itisa victory, won not by pistol, nor shillelah, nor cannon, nor sword ; it is a victory of non- resistance! Let it be an example both to tyrants end re- formers. Where is Thomas W. Dorr? MARIA LOOMIS. Dr. Boynton’s Lectures, We have been favored, during the past week, with lec- tures from this scientific gentleman, on a variety of sub. jects connerted with electricityor magnetism. He has been engaged in investigating these subjects for several years —has lectured in nearly every State in the Union—gives evidence of much mental lebor—and if we were to judge from his own statements, together with what we have witnessed, shoula say. as a magnetizer, he is superior to any we have seen, He exhibits Morse’s Electric Tele- graph, conveying intelligence across ‘oom, in pre- cisely the same manner that it is now transmitted with the rapidity of lightning, between Baltimore and Wash- ington. It seems to open the door tu a broad field of in vestigation. [t awakens all my religious feelings, which are very strong. I teel, when I witness its operations, or when reflecting upon it, that | am in the presence of an Almighty Power. Awe, reference, and wondeg are exci never entered achureh, with all its sanctimoni- ous atmosphere, when I felt half th reason is addressed—something tangible in presented to our senses—we know that we are in the immediate pre- sence of an unseen power, capable of explaining nature in its thousand meanderings, and of doing many mighty works!

INTERESTING To THE Owners or Real. Estate.— The Supreme Court, at the last term, held at Ro- chester, have decided a question of great im ce to which was argued here in May last by th ‘ebster, op if of the anti-assessment commit- tee, and by Robert Emmet, Esq., for the corperation. After upwards of thirty years recognition of the validity of the act under which streets and avenucs have been opened and improved, and ti to property, amounting in value to several millions, have been passed, an objec- tion was raised that the judges of the Supreme Court, in appointing commirsioners of estimate and assessment, and confirming tl reports under that law, did not act judicially, but as commissioners of highways, and, there- fore, that they hnd acted in violation of the clause in the constitution of this State which prohibits the judges of the Supreme Court from holding any other office. This objection, if valid, would have made void all the proceed. ings under the above act of the legislature, and put in jeopardy every title acquired under them, has, after full consideration, been decided to be untenable, the Court holding, no doubt, that all their acts under that law have been of a judicial character This decision will enable the holders of property on Madison Avenue, thirty- seventh, thirty-ninth, and some other streets, which have been kept in su: for some time by the objec- tion, to go on with th \pro' ts.

At half-past twelve, the chair was occupied by the President, General Tallmadge, and the daties of Secretary devolved upon J. Meigs, Esq. The President briefly stated the epe- cial object of the meeting, end requested, as the usual course pursued on similar occasions, that each farmer present would furnish verbally his in- dividual opinion on the subject of enquiry, begin- ning on the left of the chair. Previous, however, to which, he expressed ,his readiness to receive any communication that might be reserved for the Clwb, dispensing with the reading of the proceed- ings of the last meeting. A communication was then read from the Secretary of an Agricultural Secvety at Havana, requesting from the Farming Society ot New York euch information for the growth of clover in Cuba, as would justify them in trying such an experiment upon that island. A discussion upon the relative merits of white and red clover, clearly justified the impression that in warm lantades the latter, unless mixed with Ti- mothy, produced a disease in cattle called the water brash, The communication was eventually left to a committee of three, with full power to de- cide and report upoa the question. There was also another communication from Mr. Van Alps, of Albany, soliciting aid tor the introduction of a silk filitwre, &e., to this city. This also was re- lerred to a committee. A motion was submitted and adopted that the meetings of the Farmer’ Club and Agricultural Societies’ Committees should be held simultaneously. ‘The President then announced his readiness to hear the question of ** Disease in Potatoes” re- umed, whea Mr. Brows offered a long extract comed from the Dublin Farmers’ Gazette, into the New t ngland Farmers’ Journal. This article em- braces two questions:—* What is the cause?” and “ Js there a remedy?” mpted answer to the first leery. wae thea met by the universally acknowledged liberality inherent in every plant to become deteriorated, and the reply to the second recommended a change of seed—the production of a new generation from tubours, and not from seeds—the planting of the whole eye, and early planting. This extract contained a few other re mi 80 obviously inconsistent with the general practice of cultivation, as to carry its own con- demnation upon the surlace. Mr. Meio stated that during the year 1832, de- sirows of procuring all the information he could, as to the effect of the disease on the vegetable system, he discovered that the potatoe grew vigorously, bui that the leaves became crisped, dried, and were prematurely withered. Mr. Meigs always doubted whether potatoes like men, do not wear out by emigration ; and that in case of failure, an appli- cation should be made to South America, their ancestorial habitation, from which they have been absent 300 years, and thereby restore them to their primitive health. As a preventative, Mr. Fish- marsh, a New England farmer, recommended the free use of salt ; attributes the disease to an insect, i f on the leaves, and descends to the n thence into the ground. Le, of Orange county, said that he stor five years with great eg rieh 4 =e raised potat: but this year his crop tailed. He imported cups from tubors; they luxu- riantly, but subsequently the tops presented the appearance, as if scalded with water All potatoes were more or less aflected, but those sown on new land did not yield one- third of an average crop. He hesitated in feeding his cattle with the withered potatoe; and in boiling for family use the substance evidently decreased, and seemed to melt This gentleman con siders, generally, new land more tavorable for the production of the pota Joun E.weit, of Cayuga county, New York, next voluntered his experience. For two years his crop was excellent; but last year’s planting was in two different fields. In one he did not discover # defective potatoe—in the second there was « consi- derable tuilure. He attributes the cause to the great difference of local elevation. The field that produced the detective crop was cultivated various- ly for seventeen years, the other was new ground. Mr. Elwell was of opinion that one variety of the plant is more liable to disease than another. The very pale, red potatoe he cont iders less liable to de- tect In some potatoes, the disease developes itself on the surface—in others, in black spets, destsoy- ing the flavor, Among other causes, he believes the state of the atmosphere may be a prominent one, producing an effect like the rust in wheat.— The disease begins at the top ot the plant and de- scends into the fruit. He does not consider that early or late sowing makes any diflerence The next farmer who gave his opinion was James Smytey, of Schenectady county. He stated that for two years potatoes planted in his section of the country, for early use, never failed. This year, his corn crop failing, he sowed the ground with potatces about the 25th of June, They at first grew juxuriantly, but subsequently dwindied down to nothing. ‘ Mr. Breaxsixy, of Colville, New York, des cribes the first arance of the disease in Sep. tember by the yellow tinge of the leaf. The farmers were generally of opinion that the sap was insufficient to sustain the tubour; that the tubour became injored by the drop; redo ciog the starch of the potatoe, that the fibres were perfect, while the tubours were deficient; when the potato was pressed matter freely issued from it He tried two experiments with two rows—ashes 2, lime 2, gypsum 2; those whieh were limed were most defelens, the manure juced the most vig orous crop, the best seed, being the flesh-coloreo potato raised the year before in bis neighborhood Che pink-eyes most decreased; none of the seed was imported. ‘ Mr. Mosixr, of New York, stated that Mr James Hay, of Westchester, had three-tourthe of his crop manured with farm yard manure, and thatall was lost; but when he applied concentrated manure, or viggev eral his crop was healthy and 0 ge the potatoes were sown in the same eld. Mr. Brapenrerc gave it as his opinion, thet some kinds of potatoes are less liable than others A year ago he first discovered the detect, not im he tops but in the root; this year he changed his seed, sent to Maine for ‘Mercers, and one-third of his crop was defective. He 1# of the oprmion, that the red potatoe is less liable than the Mercers Mr. Cranks, of Brooklyn, thought that the dix ease proceeds from an animaleula existing on the leaves, and that the tubours perish from waet of nourishment. Mr. Houmus, of New York, knows Mr. He above alluded to, of Westchester, who sowed @ bushels of poudrette to the acre, and although the yellow fly got in, he saved 35 Sbushels to the acre, weighing 60 pounds, and the fly appeared to have been extinguished by the lnxeriance of the crop. r. Brown, of New York, considered thet the disease was imported, being identical with thet im Great Britain, from potatos arriving from that country for planting. Mr. Fiewmanen, in making a Microscopic inver- us, which is @ vegetable capeele of being watted y the airtoagreat distance. The fangus i evident ly an Engglish plant. Du moist weather it takes no hold. Was ot opinion that common salt * an eflective remedy. ‘he reason why potatoes are not so much infused on new land, results trom ite incapacity to receive the fungus. Mr. Coorsr, ot N.J., used the same seed tor forty years upon the same farm. He always choos ed the largest Lo any eyes; he has no doubt of the existence of an insect preying upen the po- tato, butfof a distinct character from that whieh causes the present disease. The Prxsipent here rose and stated that, upon his farm he had two pleoeses land, one he denom- ted, by way of distinction, “the garden,” the other, “the farm.” On the garden he put this season 60 bushels of lime to the acre, and laid no time on the tarm, and no manure, except that pro duced by sheep—both were old cultivators of ‘oomy soil. The petatoes in the garden lot were planted in the middle of April and dug out in Au gust. The farm was planted early in June. In the garden, where the lime was laid, the crop was productive, while in the farm, the crop waea total tailare—the one was early sown, and succeeded— the other later sown, and failed. The President entered into a lengthy and learned dissertation upon the connection of botany and chemistry in the formation of plants, for which we haye no space ; and after the exhibition by Mr. Ross of some tigation, discovered a fu roduced from seeds, an Price Two Cents. Pr specimens of potatos from which the starch was ab- stracted by the drought, and of some magnificent apples by Mr. Boswell, ot Pennsylvania, it was re- solved, that this interesting subject should be con- tinued on the next meeting of the Farmer’s Club, as well asthe subject considered asto the moet favora- ble time of apy tying manure tothe wheat crop. In the course of this enquiry a remarkable fact was stated, that the tubours which proceeded from the decayed tubours after the rain, were all healthy and goed 7 We the eee versape vale produced rought, while a surcharge of rain pro- duced the tupgus, which 1s ruinous to the health of the potatos. Mormon Arrains.—We saw a statement in the Miasouri Republican, that the Mormons and In- dians had assembled in great force, near Cart e, in Han- cock county, Illinois, as it was Fp peed hostile intentions towards some of the good citizens of the coun- 'y, ke. ‘The facts, as we’have learned them from am authentic source, are about as follows:—The Circuit Court of that county met on the 2ist, There were to at- tend this Court, all the common council of the city of Neuvoo, and many other persons of that a with a riot in destroying the press and materials of Neuvoo Expositor in June last. These persons and their witnesses, making in all about one hundred persons, being poer, and most of them unable {0 pay tavern bills in town, and wishing to avoid the show of so large a Mor- mon force about the Court, e to the very laudable cenclusion of camping out some three or four miles from town, where they could be at all times ready to attend Court upon a short notice to answer the charges sgainst em. In addition to this, some 20 Potawatamie Indians, with their women and children, on their way to hunt m' in lowa, oa the county abont sixteen miles from Cart! . about the same time. They had ne con- nection with Mormons or any ovher persons in the co th but passing through without melesting any one, this was the Mormon and Indian foree referred to. Now for the object of getting up this story, and the use that was attempted to be made of it. It was well under- stood that at the court an attempt would be made t indict the persons who were guilty of murdering Joseph and Hirem Smith, while they were confined in the Malang 4 jail, in June to prevent which something must done by the mob party in Hancock. ‘They appointed 2 committee of safety, and directed that the Judge should be informed of the resolutions of the meeting, that he might consult his safety, ‘ke. Judge Thomes did not wait to be called upon, but with- out much form or ceremony, he let these panic mekers know that he should not obey their order to adjourn; and they with all their force could not deter him trom doing his duty. And furthermore, if any of them 9 about the court house with arms or any other bi de- monstrations, that he would order them instantly to jail, and if necessary he would be one of the posse to m the execution of the order. This so deterred the out. breskers that they dared not even present their resolu- ‘ions to the Court. The county Court of Hancock county, all of whom were Mormons except one, at their Jast term selected twenty-three Grand Jurymen in their county, not one of whom was a Mormon; end this anti-Mormon jury hes had the honesty to indict both Mormons and anti-Mor- mons for alleged violations of law; and among others, indicted Levi Williams, Thomas © Sharp, wi N_ Grover, John Jobn Wills, and William Guiliher, ot Joseph and Hirum Smith It tthe whig papers of Illinois said that nothing would be done with those men for this out- rage.—IUinois State Register, Nov 1.
