We published yesterday discourse by
brother Tomas, at Albany, fully setting forth
the peculiar ideas of the Shakers on marriage.
1t will be news to large proportion of pro-
Tossing Christians that the Shakers ''do not
believe that Christians practice marriage, nor
that marriage is or can be Christian institu-
ton" Brother Tomas asserts that marriage
belongs to the Jews and heather, the same as
war, and there never was and never will be
child conceived and born under the banner Of
Christi" Nevertheless, the Shakers consider
marriage "a God-given institution, and, car
ried out as it should be, very consistent and
beautiful order on the inferior plane of EARTH"
As the majority Of the human family could not
find room enough to stand upon the narrower
If higher plane from which the Shakers oom-

GENERAL BANKS AND OUR SHIPPING INTER-
sTs-General Banks, who, in the absence Of
Admiral Farragut, presided over the meeting
of the Society of the Army and Navy Of the
Gulf, at Boston, last Friday, concluded his
eloquent address on that occasion by insisting
on our prompt Improvement of the opportunity
which the disturbed condition of Europe offers
for the restoration of American commerce.
He said, with truth, that the saddest thought
which casts its shadow on the mind of an
American, when in Europe, is that the flag Of
his country is excluded from the seas of the
world. We should seek to remedy this crying
evil and regain our former commercial power,
mot, as some have proposed, by allowing
other nations to continue the carrying trade
under our flag, but by relieving our justly re-
nowned shipbuilders from the prohibition
which now rests upon their calling, in the shape
Of enormous taxes, and giving to others the
privilege of purchasing from foreign nations
such ships as cannot be constructed here" Pre-
sdent Grant would be amply justified in calling
for an extra session of Congress, were 1t for
the sole purpose Of having those statesmanlike
views adopted and acted upon,
