PARTICULAR ACCOUNT or THE SHAKERS. Extracted from Letters from Kentucky. Emerging from a valley and rising a grad- ual ascent,Shakerstown displays itself to view on the contiguous height.’ This village is sit- uated on the main road, leading to Lexing- ton, from Harrodsburg; from one extrem- ‘ ity to the other, it is perhaps, 300 yds. lonv. On the oneiside of the road is a large church, a handsome garden tastily laid off, and a few brick work shops. On the opposite side, at the easteijri extremity of the town, is a frame building in which a tavern-is keptgiu regular succession frotn this, and about fifty yards a- part, there 'arc ‘three’ large brick and stone houses for the dtvellingiolfitlie Shaker,s,and in the satne row, is another largebuilding, lar- ger than those I have mentioned, yet t'infinisli- ed, which is also intended for a family house: in the rear oftliese buildings are their ofiices, other workshops and machine houses. These family houses are seventy five feet long, about forty wide, and are all built on the same plan, and within the same enclosure. The yard and the intervening spaces,between the houses, are set with grass ; and has, pas- sing through it, a wide walk, neatly laid with flag stones. The church is situated as before uietitioned on the opposite side of- the road 83 about the centre ofthe town : the garden ad- joining; below this and on the same side, are the barns and stables. The church is a frame building underpin- ned with superior neatness, with stone ; is a- bout 60 feet long and proportionably wide, plastered and white washed, with clairboards, &c. painted blue, in the nearest conceivable style. The floor looked as though it was waxed. The church is warmed by two small» stoves,placed at each end ofthe rootn. Move- able benches for the worshippers,are arranged around the back part of the roorn,and in front are similar seats. for the accommodation of strangers; in the upper part of the building, over the worshipping room at either end, 1-_ an apartment each for the accotiimodation of the Elder and Eldress, These apartments communicate with the interior of the church hyia small window which is about a foot square and near the ceiling ofthe worshipping room. In front ofthe church is an area paved with flag stones, and enclosed with pailings,wliich, as well as the exterior of the church, is pain- ted white. Iri the neighborhood oftlietown at various distances, and in difi'eretitdirec- tions, are seen other houses, also belonging to the Shakers. These were occupied by them iii] within a few years, since which, they built their town; these are called “ the. Blue Hou- ses.” The Shakers own 3000 acres of land, lying in a body, including their town and out houses ; they have a large 3 story mill on the “ same tract. I arrived at their town on Sunday about 11 o'clock: when I gotin view ofthe church, I heard a doleful noise. As I approached near; er, the sound broke with increased strength on my ears. The air was filled with piercing shrieks, sliotits, and confused acclatnations, resembling the wild and maddened tenants of Bedlam. I was told that the Shakers were at worship. Such were the direful feelings which these sounds produced, that I paused for a uioment to consider whether I should go into the Church. The question was soon de- cided. I tied my horse and hastened in ; at this moment all was calm, but presently their worship was renewed ; there were about 1:30 worshippers including both sexes, white and black. The females were drawn up in the west end ofthe Church in ranges of8 abreast and 7or 8 deep. The men were drawn up in like manner in the opposite end ; the two col- umns fronting each other,with a space ofsev- eral feet between the head of each column. The dress of either sex is uniform, i'esemb- ling tha-t ofthe old Qualteis; from girls of 10 years old, to wrinkled old age, all dressed a- like with longiwaisted gowns of dark colour, long checked aprons extending to the neck, a white long eared cap, with a white kerchief thrown over the shoulders,crossed and pinned before, and a checked cotton handkerchief thrown ‘over the arm ; every article of their dress was in perfect order, and every individ- ual of the column preserited a clean, near, precise dressed figure. The dress of the men coiisistcdbfliglit colored domestic cloth, with coats andiwaistcoats ofthe long waisted.fash- ion, witliouter pockets in the former,l~talf way down the leg,and those ofthle waistcoats rest- ing on the - hips. Their shirts were of coarse 'cotton, and they were without neckclotlis.-— On—‘ this occasion the coats were laid aside.- ::The blacks of each sex were arranged indis- criminately in the same ranks, and attired in ,1“, samemanner with the whites. The coun- t-euances of- the female ranks -were pale, their " visages thin, and indicating great solemnity .- of feeling; those of the men, equal solemnity and devotiotiof thought, and more vigorous health. Two singers from each sex, now took their stands at-tlie head of their corres- pondent columns. A signal being gIVGD,.the reversed fronts, quicltened their tnotions and danced inasimilar manner! suddenly, they wheeled to their former positions increasing in the violence of their actions, as they were warmed bv the spirit and animated by the singing. y one impulse they now broke the order in ‘which they stood, and each column whirled tvithifi its own limits, in vertical com- motion, throwing their heads, hands and legs in_wild disorder, occasionally leaping up and uttering a horrid yell. During this time, each individual had chimed in with the singers, who had themselves fallen into their columns and were all singing with stunning violence ; presently the two-'1-small windows near the ceiling,were seen partially and gently to open, and the face of a tuale and female were im- perfectly presented at the opposite windows. At this instant the motions which were before violent, became furious, and the noise, before stunning, was appalling. Shrieks and yells followed in alternate succession, till by their violence, and the incessant fury oftheir danc- ing, the worshippers were exhausted. Some sunk on the floor, whilst others were scarce able to get to their seats. The worship closed, andl left the house with feelings of horror which you can better imagine, than I can de- scribe. The singing was “ Vox nil pra=.terea,” sound without word, rhyme or sense. The Elder and Eldress, are individuals of this society,who are supposed to have attained to the highest degree of purity of life, and strength offaitli. _On this account their per- sons are esteemed sacred, and they receive , the confession of'sins,tho’ they are not suppo- sed to possess the power of forgiving them ;— they are also supposed to possess the power of performing miracles, 'two instances ofwhich, in effect-ing instantaneous cures of severe wounds, are Sfl_ldiI0 have been exhibited in their town. These elders occupy the upper apartments ofthe Church, and when it pleas- eth them to look down from their sacred a- bodes on the worshippers below, it is deemed a special act of condescension and grace. l went amongst them with strong pretljudices, and I left them with feelings of abomination, believing they were in the gall of bitterness, and in the bonds of damning iniquity. I re- mained in the neighborhood that night, and on the invitation ofone oftheir members, re- turned the next day, to visit their houses and to learn something of their douiestic economy and police. Istopped at the tavern,aud from thence was conducted by an intelligent guide, oneof their members, through the various a- partments of their houses, from the cellar to the garret, and into their kitchens. You are to bear in mind that the fundamen- tal principle of the religion of these Quakers is a total non-intercourse between the sexes ; consequently husband and wife are disunited as soon as they enter into this society. All their domestic arrangements are, therefore, made with a rigid regard to this object. Each family house is divided into small rooins,large enough for two beds, and each has a ward- robe attached to it. There is one kitchen, 8L dining room, common to the house ; the lat- ter has two doors, on one side, leading from the cotriinon passage. ‘ The house is divided in every story by a witlepass way; -the one side of the house through each story, is occu- pied by the females; the opposite by the males; there are_ also two pair of stairs lead- ing to the apartments on opposite sides of the house ; these houses are neatly finished. The tenants of each live as one family. The wo- men cook, wash, make and mend. The men attend to all thefarniing, mechanical and out ofdoors labour for the family. Unless some domestic necessity,the males and females are never seen in the opposite. sides of the house. —-In going to morning and evening worship, which is held in the dining roonr, and when going to and returning froui their meals, they enter the room at theircwn doors,cat at their own tables, and return on their own sides of the house; before eating they kneel down to grace, each one saying ‘it for himself. Every thing about them, within and without their houses, about their farms, stable and barn, iri- dicate uncommon neatness, ingenuirv, and- industry ; and the countenances of the males and females, when not at worship, exhibit meek, contented, cheerful and happy minds, though now and then I met with a dark, sul- ten and _ morose face. Whilst engaged in their labours together, they were active, con- siderate, cheerful and social; each evincing a personal interest while they were laboring for the cominon_ good. '.[‘he'ir labors and all their rméchallislll is performed by their own members. They are a trafficking, humane, _honest and thrifty people. Each department has an officer by which it is regulated, who is chosen by ‘vote at convenient seasons, $1’. most frequently against his inclination. They also have officers for foreign as -well as home de- partn:ents; the duty ofthe former is,to attend I0 distant purchases and sales, and to collect debts. They do not meddle with politics, al- though often urged to attend the elections by candidates for offices,and although their nutri- ber of votes would be often sufficient to de- cide iniportadt elections. They have preach- ers who occasionally visit other similar estab- lishmentsin their own state, and in Ohio.—- Between these establisluiients there is a con- stant and friendly intercourse : these preach- ers also make frequent tuissionary tours into the distant parts ofthe ‘country, and out of their own state. In this society are seen per- sons of all ages, from the tenderness of infan- cy to the decrepitude of old age: they receive all persons, whether riclror poor ; aml child- ren ofany age, that may be given them by their parents, rear them in comfort and with care, and give them plainrudimental educa- tions. _As all are permitted to join them, so no one is restrained, from leaving them,tho’ once entered into _‘ the covenant,’ they cannot reclaim their property. Sudden conversions to their religion, though not often, sometitnes happen. 1 will give you two of several iii- stances that have happened. A gentleman of North Carolina, of distinguished fatnily and wealth, being in bad health, travelled ‘through Kentucky, and was led by curiosity to visit these people; in a few days became a convert,joined them, and surrendered to them all his estate. His connexions soon heard of _it with great concern and with haste they do- spatchcd another ofthe family to dissuade his brother frotn his purposes, and to bring him he also became a convert, joined them, and surrendered his property. It became‘ neces- sary that these brothers-sliould-.returu‘ to their l-0W1_l state, to make a.-disposition of their-lands. .,.,,, - . \ -C lslngers comnreiiced, and the column: got-into,‘ ' motion. They gently advanced and receded lrf some tninutes,, when on a sudden, they. home. The messenger scarce arrived ‘before ‘I Q Theyiwenl, intending to bring the probeedsi‘ with them, for the benefit ofthe society.-—, They, however, never returned, being pre- vented by, the influence of their friends. A compromi's_e was made with the_»society, and a division of the propertytook place. Altho’ there are but few instances of abandontnem, the society increases but slowly. This has been established twenty years, and there are not five hundred members belonging to it. 1 was introduced ‘ainongst thetwomen; they were social, civil, and communicative. To describe the many useful fixtures and labor-saving machines, which I was shown, would engage too much of my time and pa- per. I will, therefore, content myself with noticinga few ofthem.' In the kitchen are putnps by which they are supplied with wa- ter, kettles fixed -in furnaces, besides,-an or- dinary fire-place, and a bake oven. ,1 have already said they have a large three story and complete manufactory mill : the wheat being deposited from the wagon, the machinery is brought to act tipon it, and it is not handled till the flour is deposited in the packing-room; by elevators, it is carried three times into the upper story of the mill before it finally de- scends. Attached to this, is a corii-shelling machine, which, with the attention of a lad, will shell 400 bushels of corn a day. Their fiax is broken and swlngled by machinerlh 31- without previous rotting. By llilslllachlflefy they can break 4,000 weight offlax a day.- The machinery is worked by two horse power. Their washing is done by horse~power, and the ironing by weight and rollers, without the application of heat. There are three wood- en rollers, six inches in diameter; the clothes are wrapr around lllt.-In ;,the weight,which is a large oblong box, 3 feet long and 2 wide, fill- ed with sand and Weighing a ton, is placed on these rollers ; by a small wintllass this box is drawn horizontally on a platform, the two front rollers deliver their clothes at the end ofthis form, the weight ispuslied back, ‘and the rollers are re-placed under the box. The operation is simple, expeditious, and effectin- al. The silk worm is reared here, $1. sewing silk ofa superior quality is made of its web. Ttreirgevening worship was conducted with mo~e dizcorum than the morning. They went through the same evolutions, except the. wliirling ;‘ their steps were more ortlerly, and in some instances were graceful ; those who did notjoin in the dance kept time by throw- ing their hands, palms upwards, up and down, it itu a motion from the wrist. They never have prayers, and preaching but seldom. Every effort of the religious system ofthis people is to war against the flesh ; they be- lieve that the mode by which the world is to be brought to an end, by its Crcr-tor,is by pre venting the increase of the h_uman species._-- The novitiatos are placed in a state of proba- tion at the “ Blue House,” and before admit- ted into full membership, are required to sign a conveyance of their property to the society, for the common benefit; this is called enter- ing into the first covenant : they are then per- mitted to live in town. They are an orderly, peaceable, and in general, uninformed, and I believe, virtuous community : there are no written rules for the government ofthe socie- ty, nor any law to punish the disorderly, and I was informed that no disorder had occurred since the foundation of their institution. Is not this a secret in government worth investi- gating? There is a perfect equality in their labours, and no distinction of rank amongst them. The society is said to be worth three hundred thousand dollars. When I left the town they refused to re- ceive pay lor my accommodations at their Tavern, ‘and urged me to visit them again.-— I have dwelt the longer on the subject of this community, believing that you would be grat- ified with a minute account of a people so pe- culiar in their te:rets,so singular ui their mode of life, and who blend so much theological absurdity with practical sobriety and com- mon sense, and of whose moral character so many unjust slanders have been propagated. N. Y. couivr or sessions, MAY 3d. The State vs. Wiuiarn Roberts. This prisoner, a tall, black-eyed, black- haired niau, looking like a valet dressed up in the cast of? clothes ofhis master, was arraign- ed on two indictments, one for petty, and the other for grandlarceny, both committed on the evening of February, by picking pockets in the pit of the Park Theatre. Charles A. Jackson being called on behalf of the prosecution, swore, that on the evening referred to in the indictment, be accompanied a friend to the theatre. On entering the pit door, he observed several persons around and inside of it, who seemed to make way for him ; but when he advanced, closed round him, and obstructed his passing to a seat. Af- ter sortie difficulty be however got through, and seated himself, when on putting his hand into his pocket, he found his pocket wallet was gone. It contained a small check, some few dollars, and some lottery tickets, which had drawn low prizes. Immediately, on find- ing himself robbed, Mr. J. mentioned to the doorkeeper the occurrence, and left the thea- tre in order to stop the payment ofthe lottery tickets, and to advertise his loss in the morn- ing papers. He then returned, and it recur- red to him that if the rogues were still there, he might, by feigning intoxication, disarm their suspicious, and perhaps lead them on to attempt further depredations. He accordingly played the part ofa drunken. man, and as the result proved, so successfully as to take in the knowingiones. The doorkeeper having point- ed out to him a man, (named Green, who was afterwards arrested) as one of the gang who iiad probably robbed him, and described a- nother, who had just left the theatre, Mr; J. staggered into the pit, and soon attractedthe attention of Green, by his apparent intoxica- rion, and by taking from the breast pocket of his coat, and putting into the hind pocket a black morocco pocket book, (empty for the occasion.) Seeing that Green and another person were watching liitn, he left the pit, they following him, seeking all the time to give the opportunity they seemed to wish of getting another pocket-book ; none occurred, however, in the lobby. Mr. J. then deter- mined to try the street, and went out and ask- ed a sleigh driver how nruch he would charge to take him to Harlaeni ; at this question, the 2 individuals who had kept close to him, drew still nearer, as ifintent on sharing his ride, but the driver could not go farther than Cato’s ; and the publicity of the street seeming to de- ter the pickpockets,-‘for a. third person had now joined the other two, answering the de- ;scription given by the tloor-keeper to Mr. J. —r Mr. reeled back again intothe Theatre, closely followed by the three. - He stopped in .tlie lobby to get a glass of brandyand water, in paymentof which_ he asked, by way of ‘stimulating the avidity ofthe gang, ifrhe bar keeper could change him a 820 bill—hc could not, Mr. J. having paid in silver for his glass, shoved into the pit, where, as soon as he got into the crowd,‘he felta hand in his pocket.—- He immediately turned round and seized the delinquent‘ Roberts. while Mr. Peter Wright, who had been one ofthe three, and whom Mr. J. had considered as an accoruplice, but who, in fact, was watching Green," whose movements around Mr. J. (whom in his turn 'Mr. Wrighttliought very drunk) be suspected, caught hold of Green, and after sortie resist- ance, both were dragged out; and on being searched, a bundle ofnotes amounting to $42,‘ which were identified by Mr. M’Keuna, as having been stolen from his pocket that same evening, was found on Roberts, and the empty pocket-book of Mr. J. was seen to drop from him when he was secured. Mr. Peter Wright being sworn, confirmed all ofthe above story, as far as he was con- cerned. He had seen a gentleman, Mr. J. apparently very drunk, and Green, whose looks he did not like, and whom indeed he saw feeling all over Mr. Jackson’s pockets on the outside—-thinking the condition of Mr. J. such as to make him an easy prey to the rogues be determined to watch them—follow'ed into the street. as last witness testified, and when Mr. J. talked of going to Harlaem, was de- termiued to go along, so as to protect him.—- Saw prisoner and Green hustle and close round Mr. J. in the theatre, and was much surprised when Mr. J. turned round to seize Roberts to find he was quite sober and had been acting all the tirne—confirm'et.’~ the ac- count as to finding the money and pocketbook on the prisoner. Mr. M’Kenna was called and identified the money found on prisoner, which had been taken from him that same evening. When he missed it, he mentioned his loss to prisoner and Green, who were sit- ting directly behind him. By the Court.—W’here is Green ? The dis- trict Attorney answered that he had been ta- ken, bailed out,and run away. By the Court.-Mr. Jackson, you are at liberty at any time to seize Green, if you should see and recognize him. Is there any mark by which you can do so? Mr. Jackson. Yes, sir, I think he hears a mark I should re- cognize. [His own sign tnanual, possibly ;] for said Mr. Price, Mr. Jackson made a mark on him that night, in the scuflle, that he will not easily lose. The case was submitted to the jury without comment, who without leav- ing their seats found a verdict of Guilty. The court, "jury, bar, and audience, all seemed tothink that the best acting that night at the theatre must have been Mr. Jackson’s, tho’ in a character certainly new to him. There is wit and truth in the following hit at the i-iwentive genius ofour country, and at what is really uiischievous, the facility with which inen,who have acquired names of some influence, lend themselves to the support of such gimcracks :— 1,°atents.——-“ Patent trusses, patent teeth in struments, patent pills, and patent lancets, are, in our opinion, all ofa piece: and when medical men countenance and even patron ize such useless efforts of human ingenuity, they encourage artizans, who might be better employed, to labor entirely in vain. What is there in this country that does not go by pat- ent? “We were lately acquainted with a gen- tlemaii who wore a parent hat, bought patent boots with cork soles, and daily besmeared his toes with Conway’: patent corn plaster ; not satisfied with this, he crawled into a pat- ent doe skin shirt, and kept tip his small clothes by patent suspenders; kept his chap- ped hands warm by patent spring blk gloves- and, finally, falling sick ofa fever, took forty dollars worth ofpatent Physic from a patent doctor, and, after languishing awhile'on one of Jeuck’s patent bedsteads, he died—-as all patent things do—prematurely-—was placed in a patent cedar wood cofiin, borne on a-pat- ent spring hearse to a patent air-tight tomb, where he now lies--a striking emblem of the numerous inventions which claim the protec- tion of our American patent laws.” [Boston .Med. Int. From a conversation with a friend of ours who has travelled, and to whom we feel mtrch obliged_for the specific answers which he has given to our many questions, we have collect- ed the following protninent points, in which the Turks differ from us. 1. In their exterior they have nothing ofthe erect appearance ol of Europeans or Americans; they bend, and to use a common phrase, lope along with a limpsy gate, that strikes a stranger’s notice at once. 9.. Their dress is loose, disguising the form, and concealing what we attempt to show, the general contour of the person. 3. They reverence the heard as we do the short pantalonns, considering it a mark of superior- ity over.the other sex: so they shave the head often and the whiskers never. 4. On enter- ing a house they pull offtheir shoes. 5. ln inviting a person to approach them, they use a repulsive motion ofthe hand. 6. In writing, they trace the lines from right to left. 7. The master of the house does the honours of the table by helping himself first. 8. He drinks without noticing the company, and his guests drink first and wish his health afterwards.— This is not a bad plan. 9. They sleep in their clothes. 10. They are grave and setlate; speak slowly and briefly. 11. They retire to rest early and get up before the sun. -12. The beauty ofthe foot is in their estimation in proportion to its size. They colour their nails and eat with their fingers, sit cross-leg; ged, chew opium, smoke cheboucs, believe in the Koran and never walk with the ladies. - [C'on—necticut Mirror. TO MILLINERS.

Greenwich, ( Greenwich Factory.) J unel O. VALUABLE MEDICINE roa COUGHS AND CONSUMPTIONS. THE high reputation that ANnr:nso:v’s COUGH DROPS and Pl-ICTORAL Pow- mms have gained for Coughs and other af- fections ofthe breast and lungs leading to‘ consumption, renders it unnecessary to say tnuch in recommending them to the public, as no stronger proof of their possessing un- common virtues could be given than will be found by reading the certificates accompany- iug each bottle, given by those ofthe first re- -pectzibility, who have used them in cases of long standing ; and some ‘of them, where their physicians had given them up as past recovery, have been entirely restored by the use ofthis medicine. The fact that they have‘ now been in, use six years, and that the de- mand the present season has been much‘ greater than at any former period is also as strong argument in their favour.
