Oh, Yes, That " Punger Gourd."

In a letter to the Washington Ameri.

handed down by tradition. The 'punger

after tobacco and cotton were first cult.

African race, it was found that the sun.
ply of suitable vessels among the settlers
to carry water to the field was entirely
inadequate. just at this time the large
iat-bottomed gourd was used for that
purpose, and to distinguish it from anv
other gourd the negroes called n the
punger gourd.' And now you have ali
know of the 'punger gourd,' and will
see at once that the exemption was in
ended to protect the o~riginators of the

Many of the sects have persons anon,
them whom they believe to be Christ, in
carnate for the second time, and the Vir
gin: One sect was founded by a peasant
soldier, Daniel Philipitch, about the
middle OF the seventeenth century, nc
Is now strong IN many parts of the EN-.
plre. Philipitch's doctrines as reported
by Mr.. HepwOrth Dixon, who has made
a special study in Russia of secret and
curious sects, were, first, 81 am God Z"
second, There is no other God :" and
third, There is nothing new" He gave
nine precepts to his followers, which |
quote from Mr.. Dixon's text: "Dripk
no wine. Remain where you are, and
what you are. Never marry. Never
swear, or name the devil. Attend no
wedding, christening, or other feast.
Never steal. Keep my doctrine secret,
Love each other, and keep my laws. Be-
lleve in the Holy Spirit"
Another soldier has recently estab-
lished a new religion which is SO secret
that 1t has no name, even among its dis
clples. He pretended to be Christ, and
chose a woman for Virgin mother. The
accounts given of this sect represent its
doctrines and practices to be unlawfnJ
and blasphemous. The members are said
to insult the church in their meetings,
and to treat sacred things with the ut.

thorities undertook to punish the heresv

by abundant evidence their perfectly

the rites and ceremonies of the rtoodox
church, went to confession regular, par.
TOOK OF the sacraments, and conformed
strictly to the requirements of the
church. Enough was proved, however,
to make it certain that these men have n
secret religion of their own and an

their meetings, testified that thew
