THE NEW FOREST SHAKERS.

The idtnation of the Shakers in their tent on Friday
night was wretched indeed. A heavy storm continued
throughout the Light with great violence. To 70 person;

ill Which there are o,:nctlienced fir lighting a fire,
they play about in the road opposite the building. Their
clothing and personal eleatiline,i are well looked after
and they are fairly fed, though they only get dry hrea,l
and tea without milk. A good deal of singing gees on in
Ile learn, in which the youngsters take part. The con,-
niiinity appear to have lost favour among the neighbour-
ing farmers and cottagers. Farmer Voles and his sons are
carting off front New Forest Lodge to their own place
loads of turnips, carrot., m',l winter croPs. sown by the
Shakers. Some of the buildings are falling, some are
being stripped of slates, and arc to c ~,,, e down. The
Shakers keep a good heart, being Pursuaded that ere long
New Forest Lodge will lie restored to them. Mrs.
thrift's is sure of this restoration, but knows not how long
a time may elapse before it, fulfilment.
