SHAKER WORSHIP.

A correspondent Of the Lewiston Jour
mol, who has visited the Shaker villages al
Poland and New Gloucester, Mass, writes
as follows:
The societies are made up Of persons Of
p all ages, and the best Of homes are provided
here for many orphans and all INDECENT or
able.bodied persons whose fortunes and
services may be thrown into their common
lot. They believe further in the temporal
kingdom Of Christ; kingdom indivisible
one in property, spirit and action. Simple
ity and an earnest zeal mark their religion:
gatherings. Their assembly room is me-
dium sized hail, well constructed and finish
ed in sky-blue paint. The sexes enter a
different doors. At the appointed hour the
presiding brother gives a sort of nasal twang
which soon increases TO full musical ca
denoes, and brings all the worshippers Il
their feet. They then form in platoons
facing each other, men on one side and fe
mules on the other, and indulge in full cho
ruses and chants, beating time by an oscil
latipg movement of their hands, with upturn
ed palms. This finished, The elder advance
from his seat, and, after q brief eXhortatio
TO quiet and godly life, resumes his posi-
ton. The tune and dancing are ther
INDUCED in, with quaint steps and pendu
lum movement OF the body; they move il
forward advances, and all hands reel aroun
the choir, that chants in the centre Of til
circle, sometimes giving double shuttle
An exhortation more and the families sepa
rate and leave the hall, previously invi,in
the spectators, the "world's people," t
keep seated until they shall have retired
The remarks made are highly interesting
and the ''laboring,' as they term the dancing
is of decidedly queer and impressive ma
ture.
The Shakers, on the whole, are unObtru
sive, orderly and peaceable. They own a
things in common, and develop much abilit
and business tact.

by the last Legislature in pursuance there
of, are faithfully and fairly executed, and
that all Illegal votes in the approaching
election be excluded from The polls, and the
election for members of Congress he legally
and fairly conducted.
When and wherever il becomes ncees-
sary to employ force for the execution OF
the laws and the protection of the ballot
box from violence and fraud, you are
authorized to call upon Major General
Thomas for sufficient military force to sus.
tain the civil authorities Of the State.
have received your recent address tt
the people, and think it well timed. ! hope
it will do much good in reconciling thC
opposition to tho amendment of the Consti
tuition and the laws passed by the las
Legislature,
The laws must be executed and the oivi
authorities sustained. In your efforts to d
this, ii necessary Gen. Thomas will afIort
you On efficient military force.
You are at liberty 10 make what use yol

A RICH CHURCH.

Trinity (Epscopal) Church in New
York city has the reputation Of being a
wealthy church, but few persons have an
adequate idea Of the affluenco of its riches.
1t is church in golden slippers. Its real
rived from royal grant made by William
the Third, in the year 1897, when Bepja.
min Fletcher was Colonial Governor Of
New York. This grant was confirmed by
the Legislature of New York in 1884. The
estate thus conveyed originally embraced
two thousand and sixty. eight lois. Ofthese
there remain TO the church six hundred aud
ninety-one, forming the most valuable por-
tion Of the First, Third, Fifth, Eighth and
Ninth Wards of the city. The value Of this
estate is estimated OF nearly ficenty million
dollars. Three hundred and thirty-six of
the church lots are leased to VIM. B, Astor,
under lease made TO his father in l766, at
the low rate Of seventy-five cents per LOT
for the term Of ninety.nine years. Oh
course, the rental of this portion Of the es-
tate, amounting to the princely sum of about
$4,000 per annum, goes into the treasury
OF the Astors, instead of the Golfers of the
church; but the vestry have the satisfaction
OF knowing that the Astor leases will ex.
pire in 1866, when the whole magnificent
patrimony will revert to the church. 1t i.
believed that the annual rental of the estate
at this time, under control of the church, i,
100000! When the Astor leases expire
next year, this sum will be increased tt
nearly half q million. And yet, notwith
standing this vast wealth, it is stated tina
the church is in straitened circumstances
Its present rector is Rev. Morgan L. Dix

Female Physicians in PHILADELPHIA.

The annual report Of the Female Medical
College Of Pennsylvania shows that, despite
all prejudice and all opposition, the insti-

A PErrIs County FARMEn's Wool
Yesterday, Messrs. Kerr, White & Co,
commission merchants, sold 1000 pounds
Of wool, the fleece Of one flock, al SO cents
per pound. Messrs. S, Thorp & Co., were
the purchasers. Last year, the fleece of
the same flock was sold at 81 10 per pound.
The difference in price, however, in the
two crops is probably about equalized in
the decline in the price of gold since last
years was sold. This wool was raised on
the farm Of the late Richard Gentry, Esq.
by his sons, who have charge of the very
large and extensive farm Of their late father.

a Women's Raid on the Whiskey

Last Monday was the scene Of the great

constant nightly rows and riotous proceed.
ipgs in number Of the whiskey-shops Of
our town, the ladies resolved to put a stop
TO whiskey selling in our midst. They
improvised meeting, to be held on Monday
last, met, passed resolutions, and marched
in solid phalanx to several places where
whiskey was "sold in quantities to suit the
purchaser" and demanded the liquors,
which were persistently refused; whereup-
on, with axes and hatchets, they made an
involuntary attack upon the doors OF the
establishments, went in and rolled the casks
and spilled the liquors in the streets.
They were the most determined set oil
raiders I ever saw. The male portion Of
the community looked on com placcntly
thinking it matter not committed to their
hands, and let the ladies' have their owr
way generally.
The result Of this raid is the combination
Of the whiskey sellers, who have com
mencod suit against the raiders. The
better disposed citizens held meeting las
evening, and resolved to stand by the ladies
and see them through in the matter, anc

were loyal to the United States government
