Perffciionism.-We learn from the Cleave-
land Observer, that the widest and most awful
forms Of this delusion are found in several places
on the Western Rrserve.-The Ravenna Star
thus speakps of this monstrous evil: FL.


OF all the absurd, profane, and loathsome doc
trines of the present day, that of modern Per.
fectonism, in its results at least must bare away
the palm. 1t sets itself above all the obligations
of law and order, abrogates the conjuga tie, and
laughs to scorn all the decenes and proprietirs of
domestic fe.-Notwithstanding its blasphemous
absurdites, it has got foothold in this country,
and in several places on the reserve.


Mead, the apostle and high priest of Perfec-
tionism, who has been operating in this region,
was a short time since committed to Jail in this
county, on the charge Of adultery, but was bal
led out in a few days by one Of his prosolytes.
We understand that he is now confined in Grau-
ga county jail on similar charge. After hav-
ing turned their heads with his hypocIitcal cant,
he seduces his victims, under pretence of "spir-
itual marriage.' ..


The most horrible state Of things is thus in
troduced into the domestic scenes of many fam
lies, whose peace and happiness when they
again come TO their sober senses, will be gone
forever. The career of this incarnate devil ought
in some way to be brought to a'close. IL there
is any power in the laws, we hope it will be ap-
piled to its full extent. ..
