thus tanning the embers and exciting the public
mind in such way as can lead to nothing but the
worst results, in such community we live in.
| From the 1'tbw~e of Saturday, In which we find
long, tedious explanation OF the doctrines Of
cialism, we extract the following PLAIN paragraph,
as the clearest and best of the whole

Thurow Weed, VIM. II. Seward and Horace
Greeley have been tor several years past engaged
IN agitatipg the public mind, first on anti-savery,
then on antrrentlsm in the country, and now on
anti-slavery, growing out of the agitation between
the North and the South. AT length the organ In
this city comes out for antl-rentsm this metrop-
oils, boldly goes the whole length for division of
property, the abolition of rents and denounces the
landlords who take any rent, just the same as a
hiehwayman who puts pistol to your head
These doctrines, impudenty and openly promul-
gated day after day this city, through the col
umns of that paper, beginning to operate on the
ignorant and foreign portion of this community
just come across the water The secret meetings,
the numerous associations, the parades and march,
es and all the other indications of the like kind,
can only tend to some terrible outbreak, IN which
mobs will next march down to Wall street, force
open the banks and demand division of the spe-
Gle which they have in their vaults Twenty years
ago similar scenes took place-similar doctrines
were promulgated, also by foreign socialists, but
on a smaller scale The times are threatening
Prepare for the worst.
CoILKcT cTroN OF MONEY FOR THE EUROPEAN Re-
FUcEEs.-At the recent Hungarian meeting,
committee was appointed, for the purpose of col
lectpg money for the benefit OF the Hungarian
refugees now in this country. One of the mem-
bers of this committee, observe, is Horace
Greeley. This may be all very right; but he has
been formerly connected with charity committees
Of that description. and entrusted with large sums
Of money, which have been by no means salts
factorily accounted for by his colleagues We
allude to the Irish Directory, which was composed
of Greeley, Emmett, and number of other per-
| sons. Some thirty thousand dollars and over were
collected from the generous people of this country
by that committee but we have not heard, to this
day, how the money was appropriated, or what
has become of il, with the exception Of few
thousand dollars, which they admit was spent in
some secret purpose that cannot be made public.
We trust that the money about to be collected
for the poor Hungarians and others, will be better
disposed Of, and more accurately accounted for,
than the thirty thousand dollars which was lbe-
rally subscribed by the people of this country for
the benefit Of Ireland, but of which no account
has been furnished to this day.
