THE DESERTED RoAD.

By THOMAS BUCHANAN READ.
Ancient road that wind'st deserted
Through the level Of the vale,
Sweeping toward the crowded market
Like stream without sail;
Standing by thee, look backward,
And. as in the light Of dreams,
See the years descend and vanish,
Like thy Whitley tented teams.
Here stroll along the village
As in youths departed morn;
But miss the crowded coaches,
And the drivers bugle-horn-
Miss the crowd of jovial teamsters
Filling buckets at the wells,
With their wains from Conestoga,
And their orchestras of bells.
To the messy way-side tavern
Comes the noisy throng no more,
And the faded sign, complaining,
Swings, unnoticed, at the door;
While the old, decrepid tollman,
Waiting for the few who pass,
Reads the melancholy story
In the thickly springlng grass.
Ancient highway, thou art vanquished;
The usurper Of the vale
Rolls in fiery, iron rattle,
Exultations on the gale.
Thou art vanquished and neglected.;
But the good which thou hast done,
Though by man it be forgotten,
Shall be deathless as the sun.
Though neglected, gray and grassy,
Still Ipray that my decline
May be through as vernal valleys
And as blest calm as thine.
The Davenport gazette. [volume] (Davenport, Scott Co., Iowa) 1841-185?, 1849-10-18

FATHER MATHEw.-This worthy phi.
lanthropist is still pursuing his bene6cent
career in our adjoining cities. An East.
ern magazine thus speaks Of him:
"His visit is made to wear peculiar as.
pect, and, we're it not for his own single
hearted consistency to one purpose, would be
turned aside from the object Of his mission,
through force Of the adulation and enthusis
asm which attend him. Thus far, his
course here has been as through perfect
pageant. The civic authorities have re-
ceived him with professions, and garlands,
and banquets, and speeches. All sects and
parties have united to do him honor. Even
the veteran DR.. Beecher, than whom the
Pope Of Rome has not colder friend,
certainly on this continent, has grasped
Father Mathew BY the hand on a public
platform, and hailed him as 4 brother, in
at least one Christian work. : The enthusi-
asm which our Irish residents exhibit to-
wards their venerated friend and benefac-
tor, is well-nigh surpassed by the cordial
and earnest efforts Of our Protestant people
to do him honor

THE RAPP COMMUNITY.

An observing correspondent OF the New
York Tribune gives particular account Of
this community. 1t is situated 10 Beaver
and Allegheny counties, Pa, and the estate
is a trac, of about 9, 900 acres Of land. The
number Of members was formerly abou,
700, but death, and the secession OF 25O
Of the members in 1892, through the in
trigues Of pretended nobleman, Count lie
on, have reduced the number to about 300.
Every thing is carried on 10 common the
mill, the factories for spinning aud weaving.
the butchery, the bakery, the washery, al
belong to the society. The washingis done
by steam 10 immense watts, popular ar
ranpment, no doubt, with the women
Mr.. Rapp, the original founder Of the socl-
ETY., died several years ago; while be lived
bis word was law; but though he died With
out making any provision for its future gov
ernment, it occssioned no interruption
The authority is now vested 10 Nine Elders.
Perfect celibacy is rule Of their faith and
practice. Not a child has been born in the
settlement for fpe years! This regulation
was not imposed, nor even first suggested.
by Rapp: the idea originated With the mem-
bers, who, after discussion, submitted il
to Rapp for his opinion or assent. The
msles and females are not kept separate,
like the Shakers, but continue to live in
families as before. History can hardly
furnish case parallel with this. As the
principle was adopted, go i, has been main
tained--voluntarly. Husbands and wives
have grown gray in single blessedness!-
la consequence Of the absence of children
the unnatural silence Of the town is almost
painful to those unaccustomedt oit. There
are no boys and girls, no youths aisd maid
ems, only few children Of the new corners
The writer, however remarks: STATURE
will rebel against the short-sighted imposl-
tons Of man. A little girl about five years
old, the only child saw, was brought BY
its mother to the pump, and Immediately
there was gathering Of the women around
it-alI The streets seemed foused out OF an
automaton gravity, and exhibited the live
Hest interest in the child. Their hearts
spoke right out. and they caressed it viii
energy aud delight, one Of them CARRYING
il away from lis mother. with great exulta
ton. A friend Of mine tells me, that par
tv Of ladies visited the place year age
with their babies, and that old men and wo
men all turned out and were in complete
ecstacy with the children" The commu
pitv is blessed width abundance Of wealth
want is not known, nor likelyto be, but thu
restraints, self imposed, are the severes'
tyranny, and the societt. Of course; mus
