ORIGINAL ARTICLES. Rise and Progress of the Seets of Christianity and Philosophy in the United States—The Socialists. One of the most importzut subjects whish ean possibly engage public attention, is a sober exami- nation and revicw of the various sects and systems | ef Christianity, and of the several sects and sys- tems of philosophy, from tho European settlement ‘ef this country down to the present day, As an in- troductiog to this theme, we have given, reeently, a historical sketch of the Datch Reformed Church ef Now York, which contains many vsluable facts, and one with respect to the iirat introduction of Christianity into this country. The Pilgrim Fa thers, it appears, were some years behind the Dutch im landing at Plymouth, and planting the Chris- tian standard on the virgin scil of New England, and even as carly as 1619 the first Duceh church was | On @ subject so vast as | that we have commenced to examine, i; is best to | give a separate and distinct history of each sect, | established in New York. and to show the rise and growth of each, from the earliest moment—as has been done in the work re- eently published in this city, entitled ** Tho History ef the Protestants of France,” by Professor G. De | Féliee, and transinied by Dr. H{. Lobdell, a work of Jefty and liberal spirit, Iucidiy written and well weanslated, aud calculated to become a stand — ard publication on the history of the Huguenots, whose early settlement at Mount Deeert, in Maine, * gives additional interest to the author's views.

The history of these philosophical or socialis- tie associations in this country is very curious. It is not a whit less important and strange the history | of the religious denomications, ry bands which are splitting « from the main bodies. Of the infidel philosophers, the first who is distin- guished in this country for perseverence in his be- lief, though he was not very anxious to make pro- and the fragmenta- selytes, was Tom Paine, the great political essayist | of the American revolution, who derived much of | his epirit from the philosophers of the same sehool | of faith, who dabbled freely in blood and free | thinking in the French revolution at the close of | the last century. Jefferson was another who en- tertained opinions antagonistic to the Christian | faith, though he, too, is exempt from any charge of attempting to make converts to his views, which undoubtedly were much strengthened daring hi mission to France, his mind being plastic enough te receive the impress of the times in which he | lived, on questions of this kind. Neither of these men, however, affected society to any great extent by their singular dogmas. The Christian princi- ples, both Catholic and Protestant, implanted in the hearts of the people of the colonies by the | + eburches of the colonies, and by the Puritans of | New England, were too deeply aod strongly fixed, to be speedily eradicated. A popular revulsion, accordingly, was turned towards Paine and Jeffer- son, even though their talents and public services were in some degree respected. The saints prayed for their conversion, in the hope that they might believe less in the age of reason, and move in the era of the gospel. llowever, the settled religious principles of the people were maintained, till with- in thé last thirty year. The soil then appeared ready for a philosophy of strange clements. In the year 1829, Thomas Skidmore appeared in | the upper wards of the city, among the working | men, inciting them to action, and advising the | people to insist upon a genoral division of property. He entered into the political arena, and the agita- tors were soon enabled to rup a ticket, and even to elect a member to the Assembly. The agitation thus commenced, soon sproud and‘nfected @ large number of the population, and, in the next year, we had the sequel inthe flour riots. Thon began the emigration from England of the alist philo- sophers of that day. Robert Owen, of Lanark, and Fanny Wright appeared among us. Owen gave Jectares in many parts of ths country, and lanny Wright—now Madamo Durasmont—engaged the theatres, and lectured before great multitudes, who delighted to listen to her eloquent errors. The phi losophical infidelity of the lest contury was r i, and its advocates, encouraged by their apparent success, went so far ox to sim at the pr al ox tablishment of their theories. Vanny Wright eventually started a commani:t village in Nashoo- ba, Tennessee, aud wen established a * i Harmony, ann, wh sold out lo Raps Ind phieal system, howe). decay, and even Pani “ for better or wor and settled down qu of the State in wh stated that she har abander her first husband, and is looking out for a fresher one to end her days While Owen and Fanny Wright were stocking proselytes, in the part of their earcer in this country, the pros: was not neglected aa lever to turn the world and its ways upeite down. An evening paper was started in this city, calle ec ort Dale t)won, aad soon after the jo ite appearance, wndor the mus. pices of H. I. Robinson, an Hnglich froethinker, who was decidedly in favor of anti-Christian sonti- ments and even of anti-slavery. Thiv writer, how- ever, soon found out bie errors, and, repenting of hie early follies, e:wbraved Christianity, and has aottled down in Now Brunswick, New Jortey, a8 a pious physician, where he is very succesful on the homeopathic system. Out of the ashes of the Sentine eprang the first ponny daily paper that ever appeared in this city, priated by Evans, in Chatham square. It was called Tie Mon, which, however, did not long conticue in existence. ‘The success of the infidels and socialives with the } press is to be found at a more rocent da It coms menced when Aivert Brivbane euccesded in con- @rting Horace Greeley to the viows of C fourier, whore disciple he fs. Brisbane was bora Western New Yor nd, after having acquired handsome education, he wont over to Paris, whore Séfell in with Fourier, living in a garret, at the Place de Ia Bourse, and very soon became @ pupil ahd convert of that thoorirt’s principles of society and public polity. Having become fally indovtri- apiod with thers chimerivul ijgas, agd bho details very now and thea | whieh they covered, he returned to New York in 1840. Determined to carry his reforms, massively | Bennett, of the New York Herald, whose assistance he well knew would he of great avail in promulga- ting, and whose mind, he hoped, would be turned favorably towards the design. Mr. Brisbane was received with that courtesy to which all respectable gentlemen of talent are entitled, and was listened to with attention, and serious “ distinguished con- sideration,” during several long interviews, after which he asked Mr. Bennett for a reply. ‘“ Mr. Brisbane,” said Mr. Bennett, ‘your theories are startling, magnificent, grand; but there isone point that needs solution. If you canonly carry me over | that point, I shall become a friend to your system.’’ “Indeed, indeed,” exclaimed Brisbane, overjoyet to be so near the end of his wishes; ‘what is it?” | «Tell me,” said Mr. Bennett, “ where is the modest, retiring individual who will, in your now commu- nity, believe himself to be born for the position of | boot-black or cook, and hope for no other ?” This | was a poser, and Mr. Brisbane retired to study out the solution, disgusted at his want of persuasion ; but he was not without hope. [He went to Horace Greeley, and unfolded to him all about the new order of society, and expatiated onthe great minds in favor of it who were at work in France and Ger- mavy. Mr. Greeley listened with groat interest, and concurred in the reasonablenes: of the demands, and terminated the interview by saying, “Iam now engaged in whipping the locofocos, As soon as bard eider and Harrison have become victorious, | j when the elections are over, and the country is saved for the new reforms, I’m your man.” Thi gave an impetus to the cause of the intidels, social- | | its, communists, and Fourieritesin various parts of the country ; and, true to his promise, Mr. Greeley | | soon came out the avowed and avowing champion of communist hotels and villages. The share and- | share-alike principle thrived. The‘ ussociasions | built houses and took soup together, and some fii | banquets were given, and some strange scenes curred among the brethren and sisters. (ilorivus | times ensued ; but where are they? | The present moment shows that though the pas- tors of the flock and the flock have been separated, the former still stick to the press. The Suse- lessness of these attempts to make the world hap- ; ' pier by socialism and infidelity, is not fully acknow- ledged yet. very new generation seems liable to be imposed upon by the delusive philosophy of the infidels. The fresh importation, however, from | France and Germany, coming in with Albert Bris- | (04, bane and several other sucialists of the same pecu- liar school of faith in Fourier, and want of faith in | God and revelation, has had its uses. They came | with honey on their tongues. They admi:ted that | Jesus wasa “great man,” “ a genius”—a wonder- | ful reformer—as wonderful as he well could bo in | the days of Herod and the wise men of the Kast, but asserted that Fourier was a more original ge- nius and greater discoverer. Disseminating their doctrines, and publishing books from French and | German authors, the immediate result of the com- bina:ion of efforts was to awake George P. Ripley, of Boston, and Charles A. Dana, both now of the Trilune newspaper, to establish a communist insti- tution at Roxbury, Massachuset:s, on the principles of Fourier. The scheme of these philosophers went into operation, but their “heaven on earth” did | not last long. It fell to pieces, and the socialists | took to the higher sphere of journalism; where, | however, they sometimes dream as of yore, and , Seem anxious that others should attempt the same | ‘ course of folly. Similar institutions were set up also, in Boston, New York, New Jersey and Ohi: and M. Cabet, the Icarian philosopher, as he is | called, even came over from France, and has esta- | blished an imported colony at Nauvoo, Llinois, the deserted promised land of the Mormons, where he appears at the present hour to be sorely troubled with the refractory members of his company. | All these experiences have their moral ; but, alas, it seems to avvil little in staying the march of iufi- delity and all the oddities of philosophy which have | been revived during the past few years. Every now and then some fresh impetus is given to these sects by the conversion of some public writer; and the last account i, that Miss Harriet Martineau has ‘ left all her old thoughts of society and heaven as a legacy for fools, while she says the very idea of God is a delusion—that there is nothing in the Bible or revelation worthy of belief, and | that mankind ought to be relieved of such absurd | creeds. Miss Frederica Bremer is on the same road, too, as was the late Countess Orsini, (Miss Fuller,) who wrote in favor of socialism and its dangerous | dogmas. In fact, the class of writers praised by | | the Tyibwne, are all suspeeted of entertaining these | etrange doctrines, and it is diffieult to say where the torrent of infidelity will be stopped, while the | promoters of it have secured positions in the politi- | | cal press, through which they may exert an in- ! fluence upon the youthful apd impressibie minds of the country. They are more dangerous than Ab- ner Kneeland was in Boston. Ho blasphemed and | was punished. They are more insidious, but not | loss dangerous to the public welfare. All the graces of rhetoric and poetry aro used to enthral the un- suspecting victim, and even those who are gifted | With intelligence, are frequently captivated, either bending to these administrators of the laws of criti- cism, from anambition to be praised some where, or from an actual admiration of the theoretical | Bar tenets of the philosophical seet. Emerson, Andrew | | Jackson Davis, Fishbaugh, Mrs. Davie, and a host | of others, are among the number of those who are constantly engaged in this infidel philosophy, and | it is quite time that their pretensions and opinions | were examined. The Mormons are harmless com- pared with them. They appoal to the ignorant, and work upon the uncultivated imaginations of | wen and women, as the Shakers do, but the sovial- ist philosophers and infidels use more jesuitical means to make proselytes. They are feeding on | the hearts, the brains, nay, the very souls of the rising generation. | llowever, we shall not fail in our duty with ro- gard to these dangerous and insidious disorganizers of seeiety. We shall watch them continually, and use every exertion to expose the machinery by | which they hope to subvert the moral constitution of seciety. In doing this, we shall survey the whole | field of religion and philosophy, of sects and ry» tems, giving each association, and individunls when necessary, full credit for their influences whether for good or for evil, upon society ‘T! bd task + an onerous one, but there isa ery for lig nd | ® true exposition of the power and eaecte of | clations upon society, and ‘ust and faithful to the fin por ‘sud () all concerned in its examination.
