STRANGE DOINGS AT THE AGAPEMONE.

Rumours of reeent atrange doings at this peculiar
institution are floating about the district, anal prove on
inquiry to have something stable for their origin.
Everything that transpires at the ''Abode of Love"
to be kept as secret as poasible, MA the incident
which has renoitly occurred forms 11,. exception to the
rule. From infonnati 111 l affonlesl us we are enabled to
give the following ',articular* :--About six years ago Mr.
Lewis Price, a clergyman and • 'Welshmen, joined the
Frineeites. Since then he has married one of three Miss
Nottiolgea, who ere said to have taken with them to the
Agapenione 1:6,11k) each, the whole of which money was
secured to the lord. Another Miss Nottidge was
married to an inmate, anal a third died lately under
distressing circumstances. The brother of the deceased
hely has taken legal proceedings againat Mr. Prince, the
head l id the establishment, for the recovery of the Lti,ol.lo
his sister possessed, and the ease will, we understand,
conic before the judges next term. Mr. Price appears
at one time to have been a zealous advocate of the creed
of his adoption, anal wan one of those who attended the
y sneering held in Bridgewater to persuade this good
folk of this town tliat Mr. Prince was a lICAVCIPACIIt
prophet and redeemer. About three 1111 l ntlis ego, how.
ever, Mr. Price, having been deprived of his wife for
nix weeks or thereabouts, got tired of hid lonl's
(ion, and left the loving abode, vainly endeavouring to
take his lady with him. With the late Mr. Water
man, of Castle-hoe., Emilore, be realised for a
short time, anal lags al,ao been staying at the
Lamb lain, Spaxton, adjoining the Appeinone, de-
voting his time and energies to procure the release of the
wife from the Wink; guardianship of his aiiiretiuie affec-
tionate brethern. Various have been the plans and con-
trivances to attain this end ; but they have hitherto
proved unavailing. Application was made to the politie
to rernove Mrs. Price by force, her Lushand alleging
that lie laid reason to believe that she wan detained
against her will. Of course the constables had no power
te intrude thelllllelVeS 1•11101Ig the happy fetidly and tear
away Ime of its members. ISO another plan had to be
devhiesl. It was arranged that when the lady was
walking on the terrace in the rear of the dwelling of the
Princeites, Mr. Pr.ce should jump the barriers dividing
the grounds from a neighbouring geld, seise his partner,
and trust to the protection of the policeman in *tilting
to prevent a breach of the peace from the gentlemen of
the .Agapennitie assaulting him and rescuing her. This
scheme, feasible as it looked, turned out to he slifffeult
of execution. The doughty Welshman patiently waited
fair • favourable opportunity to display his courage, but
whenever his lady made her appearance in the garden%
and on the terrace, she was guarded by a Princeite on
either aide, or aisa accompanied by one only, with
others at hand. Whether Mr. Price did not consider
himself capable of attacking tau Agapenionites, or
whether he feared the readiness of the police officer to
give him prompt SUCCOI.I', has not transpired. The
gallant liberation was nut attempted, proceeding no
further than an project, and recourse was consequoltly
had to law, hoping perhaps that that might achieve
what force bad not dared to essay. The services of Mr.
,Within. &kw, of Bridgwater, were retained, ard that
