ERISM

Mr.. Carter, renouncng shaker, visited this plac e
a few weeks since and gave two three lectures on
shakcrism, and sang some twenty songs danced, ex-
posed Mers theory and did several other things for
the amusement Of his audience.
The shakers creed is very curious one. They
believe in God, and two persons in the Godhead
male and female, or Father and Mother-called
Power and Wisdom.
They believe that Adam was the Father of the Old
Creation, and Eve was the Mother--both being Gre
ated after the image of God and that Christ is the
Father Of the New Creation, and Ann Lee the
Mother-and that the Millennium commenced with
the appearance of Ann Lee on earth
They believe in the Immortality of animals well
as of men. They say that John saw horses in the
world of spirits recorded in Revelations. They
believe that all the ugly and venomous animals on
earth are symbolical OF the evil spirits that nhab
the lower regions Of the invisible world and that all
the beautiful creatures, such as birds with gorgeous
plumage, symbolical of the good spirits in the
mansions of bliss.
They believe that the souls of shakers, in their
frances and visions, really visit the heavenly world
The lancet has been applied to them, and their flesh
has been scarifcd, while in this state, without pro-
ducing particle of blood One person who visited
the land OF spirits IN trance, all the patrarchs
and kings Of oden time King David travelling,
and Solomon q white horse saw Christ and
all the Apostles.

AN INTERESTING INCIDENT THE FAILs.-fEX-
tract OF letter received in this city, dated Falls of
Niagara, July 10, lS4l hasten to say word Of
an interesting incident which occurred here during
my stay and has been the cause of great excitement
here, and which will probably figure in the newspa-
pers. On Friday night last, about ten o'clock man
by the name OF Allen, belonging TO this village, in
passing from Chippewa to Niagara village about two
miles above the falls, accidentally broke one Of his
oars, and consequently unable to reach the shore
at the usual place. He soon found himself carried
down the rapid current, and towards the Horseshoe
falls. The tumbling waters were before him. and he
of course was pulling for his life. BY extreme eff
forts, he gained point opposite the outer of the
Islands called The Sisters, and there his boat struck
rock and filled, and he threw himself into the rush
ing stream, and gained the island just named Those
who have visited the falls will remember the stua-
ton of these islands, and the rapid rush Of water
which divides them from each other
Early on Saturday morning he was discovered, wet
and exhausted, on the island, and Mr. Robinson,
who has heretofore distinguished himself by navigate
ing the rapids here, obtained boat and dashed
through the whirng torrent and reached the second
island, now known Deer island. Arriving there,
he could converse with the unfortunate Allen, but
could not reach him. or give him any aid in rescuing
him, or in relieving his exhausted frame.
On Sunday, yesterday however, Mr.. Robinson
made another attempt, and after reaching the place
on Deer island, which he reached on Saturday he
was enabled to throw rope from Deer island to the
one on which MIR. Allen imprisoned, and, by
the aid of this rope, Allen rescued
] saw the two attempts made to rescue Allen by
Robinson, and the manner he navigated the rapids
was wonderful, and created great astonishment.

SPANISH Girsy Throughout the day
there was nothing going on but singing, drinking
casting, and dancing But the most singular part of
the festival reserved for the dark night Nearly
a ton weight of swcetmcats had been prepared AT an
enormous expense-not for the qualification OF the
palate, but for purpose purely gypsy These sweet
meats of all kinds and of all forms, but principally
yemas or yolks Of eggs prepared with crust OF SUI

floor of large room at least 10 the depth oil three
inches Into this room, al given signal, tripped
the bride and bridegroom, dancing romans, followed
amau by all the Giianos and Gtanas, dancing roma
lis To convey slight idea OF the scene, IS almost
beyond the powcr of words. In few minutes the
swoetmeats were reduced TO powder, or rather TO
mind and the dancers soIed TO the knees with
sugar. fruits, and yolks of eggs Still more terrific
became the lunatic merriment. The men sprang
bioh into the air Weighed brayed, and crowed, while
the Gitanas snapped their fingers in their own fash
ion louder than casanets, distortng their forms into
all sorts OF obscene attitudes, and uttering words TO
repeat which were an abomination. In corner OF
the apartment capered the while Sebastanilla
Wet gypsy from Melila, stunning the guitar most
furiously and producing demoniacal sounds which
had some resemblance to Malbrun, (Msbrouk,) as
he strummed, repeating at intervals the gypsy modf
cation Of the song-Borrop's Gipsies II spain.

OUR COUNTRY AND OUR HOME.

BY JAMES MONTGOMERY.
There is land, of everv land the pride
Beloved by Heaven, DER all the world beside
Where brighter suns dispense serener light,
And milder moons emparadse the night
A land of beauty, virtue, valor, truth,
Time-tutored age and love-exalted youth.
The wandering mariner, whose eye explores
The wealthes isles, the most enchanting shores,
Views not realm SO beautiful and fair,
Nor breathes the spirit of purer air
In every cline the magnet of his soul
Touched by remembrance lrembles to that pole
For in this land of Heavens peculiar grace,
The heritage Of Natures nobest race
There is spot Of earth supremely best
A dearer, sweeter spot than all the rest,
Where Man, creations tyrant, casts aside
Ills sword and sceptre, pageantry and pride,
While in his soitened looks bengnly blend
The sire the SON. the husband father, fre nd
Here Woman reigns; the mother, daughter, wife,
SIrews with fresh howers the narrow way of life;
In the clear heaven Of her delightful eye
An aDgel-guard of loves and graces lie;
Around her knees domestic duties meet,
And fire side pleasures gambo at her feet;
" Where shall that land that spot Qfearth, be found2
Art thou mana patriot 2-look around,
Oh thou shalt find, howe er thy footsteps roam,
That land Thy country, and that spot Thy home

"GIA! Gia! avast avast y cried the sturdy
gondolier, as the light and gayly Illuminated
bark which brought US from Murana darted past
the polished prows of hundreds of its fellows
and neared the piaZetta: COrpo di Bacc0i
These fellows are as deaf as the doge Faliero p
would they were as powerless" said the
Conte, with smile, "for they all seem bent up
on marrying us to the Adriatc and for my own
part have at present no great love for the con-
nexion."
"Corpo del Didrolo He that does so shall
assuredly assist at the nuptals. .Staiii lar

gave an additional jerk TO his long oar, and sent
the swallowy gondola dancing over the placid
lagoon.
.sPian, piano, Softly, softly" cried /, "be
persuaded to husband your strength for some
better contest, and allow Us TO enjoy this lovely
scene for few moments. You seem as eager
to reach the goal as if you were straining at a
regatta"
'Pe,haps, Signore, there may be as great a
prize awaiting me at the goal" COINED the gon-
dolier, placing his fingers TO his lips and kissing
them, ''as any that was ever won upon the great
canals
w,
"a dish of fried fish and cup of Samoyn
'COrpo di San Girotamo! Gondoliers are
not gourmands, like the greasy Greeks who
sneak about the Mercera, or the greedy Jews
who growl within the Ghetto,"* responded the
gondolier, putting his hand upon his bosom and
signing. "They have hearts as well as cava-
liers, and as open also to the darts of love
piercing eye"
"a petticoat peticoat!" cried the Conte !;
"Fortundtissimo Gondoiiere! that is prize
really worth contesting for in Venice, where all
are so lovely"
"Per la Santa Maria Maggiore ~ said the
gondolier, casting glance at his own handsome
limbs, and looking towards my friend ironically
''she is worthy of better man, Signore Conte
her sparkling eyes and laughing lips have exact
ed even a compliment from the blne-eyed Doors
who watch the arsenal, and Croat boards have
bristled for her sake; but since she has given
plight TO me at the hour of vespers, would il not
be cruel to keep the girl waiting? Would you
not yourself, Signore, strive to keep your time
with any dear Isabellina, such as mine is 2"

Venetian lovers are never bound TO minutes
until the midnight hour has sounded from the
Campanlle," said the Conte, laughing. "Let
the fair one gaze little longer on the cold and
modest moon, and believe me she will better
know how 10 value the warmth and ustre of
your roguish eyes. Tell her that your gallantry
was forced TO bow at the shrine Of strangers
curiosity Ply your oar more slowly more
slowly stiIl-so-soi"
The scene before was, in fact well worth
keeping the anxious gondoier few minutes
