THE ATLANTIC.--While we write, no tidings
have been received of this ocean steamer long
since due at New York, and fear is gradually
growing to despair, of her appearance. Great
excitement prevails at New York, with reference
to her and her dock is crowded with anxious
persons who have friends or relatives on board,
seeking to gain some information of her. Her
fate has probably been that of the "President,"
which our readers will recolect, left New York
some years since, and was never again heard of,
nor was the least vestige of her, ever discovered.
RICHARD BRoDHEAD has been elected to the

will lay on the shelf any hope Mr.. Buchanan
may have entertained for the Presidency.

Mr.. C. CHAUNcEY BURR, promises, in series
of lectures to expose the whole matter of the "Spr-
itual Rappings,' by doing himself all that has
been done by the 'Spirits,' and also showing 9TH
ers how to do it. Perhaps he WILL but we have a
very confident opinion, that the result will prove
Mr.. Burr to have promised great deal more than
he can perform. Doubtless he can amuse a crowd
and satisfy the gullbe and credulous, but some
thing more is necessary. When Mr. Burr can set
quietly down in the midst of number of persons
embracing every variety of mental and physical pc
culiarity, and tell them their own names and the
names of their absentrelatives and friends tell them
not only what they are thinking about but also
what they have been produce conclusions of sound
sensibly vibrating objects with which he has no
connection whatever, move chairs, tables, and 9TH
er articles, manifestly without touching them; we
say, when he sets down calmly with discrimina-
ting company and does these things and many 9TH
ers equally surprising, he may claim to have fulfill
ed his promise by demonstrating that these claim
ed Spiritual demonstrations are all within material
means. We shall be glad to know the truth
p. S-Just as we expected. Mr.. Burr hasmade
his promised eXpositions, of which an exchange
received since writing the above, says " He failed
completely in explaining the mystery in his lectures
and 50 far as the spirits Were concerned they were
no where" We will venture to say and we are
quite willing to risk all the sagacity we think we
possess on the prediction, that those who now find
consolation and hope in belief of the reality OF
these demonstration will have no reason to discard
that belief, and those who are skeptic will before
long, have all the evidence they in reason, ask

Poverty Of Churches.

In this country there are many poor
ehurches-too poor to sustain The ministry
of the word among them. In some instances
this poverty is real, in others it is imagi-
nary or feigncd. Some churches do not
possess, neither can they obtain the rcquis-
ite means to support a pastor. Others do
not find it convenient to do so, because all
their convenient funds are expended for
various luxuries. A prominent deacon OF
one of these poor churches remarked, in
relation to ministerial support, at the anni-
versary for recalling of their pastor, we
are all very poor, enthralled and much in
debt, and have hard scuffling to live. We
are willing to do what we can for our pas
tor, but we cannot promise to do any thing
any certain amount Yet one who was
acquainted with them affnms that $500
were annually expended by the members
of this poor church for the single article OF
tobacco.
Many, very many, church members cx-
pend more money fo? tobacco than hey
give to sustain their pastor-nay more than
they give to charitable objects combined.
Could many of our preachers receive for
salary what their churches give for this
one article Of luxury, they would be under
no necessity ofresorting TO secular employ
ment for support. AT the most moderate
calculation, the Baptists within the territo-
rial limits of the Southern Convention ex-
pend a sum for tobacco sufficient, if equal
ly divided, to pay salary of $4O0 per an
mum to every Baptist minister. Is it right :
But Il" like people, like priest" We know
minister who said he would pay any one
$40 annually to furnish his cigars. We

Dum, and he was at that time missionary,
sustained in part by the voluntary contri-
buttons of the churches. These are facts
to think about.-Home Foreign Journal.

SHAKERS IN ENEIELD.-In converse
ton recently with leading member Of
this Society, he informed us on some points
of their habits and economy, of which we
were ignorant Among other things he
stated that for about ten years past the
use of meat was almost abandoned, and
that with manifest advantage. Formerly
the family to which he belonged (there
are three, we believe, in the society con-
sumed annually eight thousand pounds
among the sixty members which composed
it; now not more than two thousand
pounds are used, and pork is entirely re-
nounced, as unhealthy. He thought the
use of it tended to disease, and especially
measles, of which not case had occurred
in the family since the disuse ofpork The
health of the family was better, and the
laborers were stronger, and pursued their
tolls with less exhaustion, and called for
" lunches" less and needed them less than
before. New comers in six months gene
rally lose the appetite in great measure
for meat, and are better satisfied with
vegetable diet. They make free use of
butter, cheese and milk, which they have
of the best quality and in ample quantities.
He remarked also that they raised no
stock beyond their own use, finding that
wool-growiDg was more profitable even at
twenty-five cents a pound. The Society
own a factory at North Enfield, where
they manufacture their own wool and large
quantities which they purchase.
