"EeGs WANrEp-At the Icarian Community"
Citizen CADET, however is not on bed of roses
in Nauvoo His Icarians are not always faithful to
their communal vows, and indeed often break
them, amid the bcwildering temptations Of Nau-
VOC society. The Popular Tribune, of March 9Th,
thus tells tale IN
"DEsERTIoN OF, AN icARIAs.
"The members of the Icarisn Society who, no
matter from what reason, become dispieased with
communal life, are at liberty TO Withdraw from Il
on condition that they give notice Of the same and
that they leave without hostility. One of the mem
bers, Chevillion, from Lyons, employed in the
printing Office, has just left the socicty, Con the
Friday, February 2Stb,) without giving the least
notice of his intention, and ut the moment the

furniture belonging to tho Community, which be
