MR. OWEN AND THE CHURCH OF SCO HAND. LETTER THIRD. THIRD. TO TILE EDITOR. Sitt,—lt has been shown, that all the Systems of Society, which' have existed, or do at present exist. however dissimilar in appearance. are substantially but one and the same; that they are all constructed on the saute basis ; that the notions in which they have originated, being opposed to Use laws of nature, are irrational ; and that they necessarily produce error, sin, and misery. We have seen, that in all these syste:ns, it is assumed as a principle: 6 ' That man, having the formation of I:i4 own cha racter, ii bring, to Whom merit and demerit is applicable. and that; accordingly, he is to he deemed entitled to reward, or justly deserving of punishment." And that this is of necessity a principle of disunion. For, it creates and sanctions anger and It necessarily produces intolerance. It teaches twat 11111111 cannot exist without competition and r•pposition. It therefore declares general union and co-operation to be impoisible. Now, the New System discards this principle of dis union. It admits and adopts salts first and pervading printiple, one, which Is directlyopposed in all respects to that, which regulates Society at present—a principle of union For it recognizes the laws of nature regarding man. By acknowledging the first great truth, which these laws teach us: " That mar does not form himself or his character, and that therefore, he cannot possess merit or demerit fur his formation, or be rationally subjeci t 3 punishment; or entitled to indhidual reward." It creates and sanctions peace and good will. By acknowledging the law of nature, •` Mutt the will of every human bring is formed fur him ; and that even the will of man, although thus formed, has no controul over his belief or opinions." It necessarily produces intolerance. In admitting the la* of human flaw .e "That noindividual can be truly hippy, wkile he is consaluaa that another etivta i n ntiser:i.' It teaches that men can never exist in happiness till cmpeti tioo and opposition disappear from 'along them. And it declares that union and co-operation are indispensable to the attainment of trite I:appiurs. In recognizing the law of nature : "That man is horn with a desire for nappinesi. and retains that desire through life;" it infers that nis desire witl uniformly prompt him to follow whatever he sees to be conducive to his happiness; and, therefore. . .. . . _ It declares union and co-operatiou to be of easy and certain athiinment. The whole of the New System rests in fict solely an the Isms of nature. These IMS have brCII stated at length in a Iforiner letter. Till it van be shown that they are not de: ducible from all tin: farts whic:i i.istory, anti rho eili T deuce of ear • M 6,13 mato known zo as, it must remsia •4---:-~~--,~ Before they can ima2ine with how much facility, under a system of union and 'wand co-operation, more really val able knowledge can be coumunicated to all children, 'lisle and female, before the arc of twelve, than is now possessed by those who hive finished their education in the hest of the learned universities in the world, they must see and bear a mass of children, born in the lowest rank of life confound the wisdom of the wise by their talents and acquirements. Before they can believe that human h ings, thus gifte I and informed, will cheerfully and with the greatest delight occupy themselves, day by day and year after year, in doing and producing whatever is necessary for their own well being and happiness, they must actually witness the fact and he allowed to investigate the results, to be con viewed that no deception or legerdemain has been practised upon them. Before they can admit it to be passihle, that these same persons being thus employed, awl knowing at the same time that all around then) are, equally nit,' themselves, to share the fruits of all their inaustry, will permanently experience far more satisfaction and pleasure, than any people now derive from their supposed selfaiirected oc cupations and amusements; they frost he ape( tators of the daily and hourly proceeding of this new race of beings, trained under a system opposite in all respects to their own. Before they can be made to conceive how these peo ple shall arrange, manage, and direct, all the affairs of life, not only without contest, counteraction, or competition of any kind, but with the most perfect harmony, and with a cheerfulness and activity that will preclude any approach to ennui, tameness, or lassitude ; they must he in the midst of their society, and be eye witnesses of hourly en joyment and of active pleasures. of which men of oil so ciety have no other weans of forming any rational con ception. Before they cart suppose it to he within the Wands of possibility that these people shall set no value whatever on individual wealth, honours, or personal distinctions of any kind, and feel real commiseration for those who do ; they must, with their own eyes, see them abandon all pri• vete property, define all honours and personal distinctions. and be, at the same time, in possession of more enjoyment than the most wealthy individuals. or the most powerful riders of states, have ever yet experienced. Before they can deem it otherwise than the wildest vision that human beings shall thus congregate, harmonize, and actively enjoy—improve day by day in dispositions, habits, manners, and health, and continually advance in knowledge and happiness—they must have the actual scene placed before them. Before they can give the slightest credit to the asser tion, that none of these people shall possess anger, jeal ousy, reventre, hatred. or any of the inferior feelings or passions, and get experience; more exquisite enjoyment from all their rational and natural sentiments and propen sities, than liuman nature has ever yet attained, they must indeed he eye-witnesses of tuch a state of society, and themselves be wade to feel, in some degree, its happy effects. Before, in short, they can allow the practicability of pro during these hovel results, and of bringing them to pass without heir) from their old notions of individual reward and punishment, here and hereafter, they must, with their own eyes, see the whole system in full operation :—.And, even then, so deep-rooted are the prejudices which they have been forced to entertain against human nature, that they will, fur a time, almost doubt the evidence of their own senses. Yet these are the certa.o and necessary results of a system, whose first and periading principles exclude all hostile feel isgs, as unjust and irrational—all selfishness, as direcly ren dering self unhappy—all inconsistency in principle, , as pro ducing only evil in practice—and all force or violence as de feating their own object. Thenew system obtains these delightful results,not by meant of individual excitements and opposing interests, but by gene ral union and mutual co-operation ; not by precepts and admo nitions, but by removing every motive, which can possibly create a single evil propensity. Thus, and thus only, can the period ever arrive when the earth shall be at peace, when men shall becoMe as brethren of one family, when there shall be but one language and one people, and when there shall be none to make them afraid. ..... And therefore is the new system the only one that can ever produce, or secure to the human race intelligence, virtue or happiness. la soy next I shill state what has already been done to In duce a general examination of its principles by all classes and per ties, preparatory to its adoption in practice. ROBERT OWEN. New Lanark, October 21, 1523. An order has been sent to Mr. Wun'ner. from the Office of the Secretary for the Borne. Department, directing that lorry female convicts should he tOrthwith sent to Wool wich, there to embark on hoard the Brothers for New South Wake. Sixty inure female convicts are to be sent from different prisons in the coontry on is •ard the same vesiel, which engages to carry oat 700 Several of the women have been already engaged as servants in the place of their destination. The children of the women are allowed to accompany them. Some time between last Saturday evening and Monday morning the counting house of Charles Lawrence, Eaq. Mayor of Liverpool, was entered, and th• drawers titled of a' Out 3:01. in notes and rash, anal s veral bills of exchange, the whole atuonning to upiaards of 3900 i. The thieves so ingeniously avoided exter or violence, as to prove they are adepts in their professiou.—(Maischester Alercary.) The hurricane of Thursday night, in its ruthless progress occasioned no slight alarm from the dreaded fall of chimney stacks, and did considerable injury in the deracination of toes, and the unroofing of houses. Antonin numerous ios stances of its violence we glean the following : —The Falmouth Mail, when within four miles of this city, w t upset. the violence of the wind having produced suck ; terror in the horse., that they refused to proceed, an t I actually turned to go back, notwithstanding the efforts of the coachman to restrain them. There were several pass censers, but we hear that none of them received injury_ Mr. Clench, of the New London Inn, on hearing of the accident, Inst no time in dispatching chaises to bring them 00. About 5D boats were drifted out to sea from Exmouth and the river Eze. A magnificent else tree, opwarilts of 100 years old, the property of the Rev. U. P. Coaserat at Brampford Speke, was torn up by the roots, and MI with an astounding crash ; it happened : fortunately for rho family, that it fell off front the lwase, near which it had so long maintained its position, its height being considerably greater than the tower of the chinch ; the branches were of incredible bulk, and: the girth of the trunk 18 feet.— Many of our readers will recollect the beauty of this ma jestic tree, and regret its downfall. Most of the market. folks, on their way hither, yesterday morning, found the roads obstructed by prostrate trees and overflown waters. The roofs of some new houses in St. Sid well's, were blown off ; and in other parts of the city considerable violence of a similar, though minor nature has been occmoiened. Tim waters of the Ese are much swollen, and a considerable number of cattle have been drowned.— (Exeter Gazette ) The storm of Thursday night and Frio's)! morning- las - . was felt here with awful violence, and the mischief it occ - sionaid has been prodigioas. Between two and three. o'clock on Friday morning, the wind, • which had been I.:creasing in fury from eight Wie.:.clt the price ling night. had attained its climax of violence, and was then accom panied by rain and a heavy fall of snow, which settled to a depth of more than five feet in the cistern ports of. th:s county, and completely covered the surface in every other direction. The roaring of the elements, anti the incessant fall of materials from the tops of houses kept mamy persons in very painful suspense as to their per-oval security. Several chimneys were partially thrown do en, and a whole stack in the house occupied by the proiirietor of tlis paper, fell with a frightful crash, carryieg before it the roof, begot, and rafters of a I orge beiliromn, whip: fa was instantly filled . tvith several tons weight of bricks anti rubbish. Providentially, no out wls injured. Early in the morning, the scene around this neigloloo was extrein• ly distressing. The river 'Pane, which assumed the rapidity of a torrent, had overflowed its banks an the adjacent meadoies for several miles were inundated. Several sheep awl a number of poultry were seed horn* along by the current. The destruction cemasioned to the trees is quite unprecedented. Very few orchards n many miles rounu this town hove escaped the mischievous visitation of the storm. Trees are prostrated is every direc tion, and many a farmer has to larce.:t a loss in this particatar, which t will be unusually reminded of is Lie correvondinc rilininutidn of his cider produce. Severe, however, so this in jury really ii, ills by no means so much to hr rezrelted as this lereparalsle loss sustained by the possessors of family eit .tee. whose grounds have been most lamentably denuded of eery large portions of valushle ornamental timber. Thousattos of trees, especially of elouS. have been torn up by the fury of iip. gale, and many appear to be saappc I asunder in Vie middle of their trunks. Lar.te Drenches are every where lying scitterc.l at distances over the fields in which they grew. At Calsweit. Sandhill, and lleathertoo parks the number of ni•ijes , ic trees down is deplorably great. On the estate of E. J. Bsdaile. Esq..considerahte damage lifts been done, and at Mr. Crosa's at Mil eerton, nearly WO trees were blown down. A. Crosse. Esq. of Bromfield, has also very extensively participated la. this calamitous occurre nce. Tom brick fields at Bridgewater, ann those near this town, have lost several thousand newly formed briekt,end slooi instances of devastation numerously present themselves to notiee.--(Tartntea Courier.) I • . INUNDATIONS IN ITALY. iNSPRUCK, OCT. 23.—We receive the most melancholy accounts from the Pustherthal, and the circles nt the Adige, and Trent, of extensive devastations caused by 10,,{ continued rains, and the destructive rising of several moan tain streams, and of the rivers Adige, Muck, Drew, and Rientz. According to all the accounts, the valley of the Adige, from Bohan° to beyond Trent, presented the nint choli appearance, the whole :valley forming alms!, without interruption, an entire lake. The rising of the Adige, inundating the whole valley near Trent, unite,' eith.the impetuous torrent of the Pestling, has had to pare Ilel for many years. The city of Trent has bee.' several times in danger of being partly destroyed by this raging stream, and feint were still entertained on the lsth,• as the rain continued to fall in torrents. I: was every moment expected that the bridge of St. Lorenz s would be Carried away by the Adige. The accumulated waters of the Adige flowed to Verona, after overthrowing four houses in Castel Nuovo. A third part of that great city is unler water, and, in many parts, up to the first stori. s of the houses. The communication is kept up, partly over the roofs, and partly by breaking through the walls between the houses. The Adige has likewise riven to a great height above its banks in two places below Legnago. his said thit similar calamities have taken place on the Po. Almost all the roads are impassable and the communication interrupted, so that the extent of the devastation cannot yet be known. Yeiterdak, Read, the bead officer of Hatton Virden esta klishmenr, reported to Mr. Sergeant SELLosr, that he ha t then returned from Bartholomew Hospital, to see It. Stan ton, who was mutilated by his wife, in order to learn when it was expected he would he sufficiently recovered to appear against her. He stated, that Stanton is so far recovered that he fpond him up, dressed, and walking about the ward, and was enabled to attend prayers on Sunday last, and that. it was the surgeon's opinion that he would he able to attend at the office sonic day next week, to give evidence, wham his wife will be brought up for final examination. DRILADFUL NOY. 5.—A most dreadful firs broke out this afternoon, in the plumbery of Mr. J.
