has ever acted the hypocrite.


Much praise is due the Chairman for his impar.
tlailty towards the speakers and the enthusiasm
with which his observations were greeted, plainly
showed that the audience appreciated the course
he pursued.


The cause of the trouble at Community appears
jealousy OF too much power invested in one
nan-and that man John A. Collins johnson,
VINO IS somewhat OF lawyer, and about the most
complete thorn IN the flesh to Collins in curbng
ms ambition. As last resource, Collins got
friend to buy Johnson's interest ia the concern,
ana to giye w. hlm employment in Boston at yearly
salary. When johnson got TO Boston he exposed
Collins, and raised such rookery at Communiry
Place. that In order TO keep possession of the sta
ton OF ruler, 1t became necessary to have a clear
ance OF all opposers to the one man power; accord
lngy large number lett, and one man undertook
to remunerate himself bv taking off some of the
Community property, and for so doing was arrested
ny virtue OF a writ issued in Collins name You
Know Collins, and ! need not inform you what
never catch him in position twice ake--besuti-
full in theory, but unsnbstantial in practice


On the following Wednesday, the 8h another
meeting was neid IN me same place, and the same
persons presided. The charges were a recapituia
ton OF the former statements, with additions OF
Collins mode of keeping accouns-inasmuch as
at an arbitration lately held at Community Place,
20 lins naa MADE nc no entry Of property 10 cons,
had represented the liabilities of the association
much greater than they were Collins in specious
speech endeavOred to explain, and was listened to
with the greatest attention. Considerable recrimi-
nation took place. From Collins account the as
s0clatlon were between two and three thousand
dollars In debt and according to his opponent,
balance OF from four to five hundred dollars made
the community so much better than nothing Mr.
Orrls, formerly an attorney in this county, seems
the most independent man at Community at pre-
sent, stated that he thought Rector a misused
man, and had SO stated at Community. Collins ad-
mitted that though he had charged Rector with be
ing idle, that he had made an advance of cons
derabe sum Of money to him, in order to keep him
there to work at dollar aday. Rector called upon
one young man from New HAMPSHIRE 10 state f
he, the young man, did receive the treatment due
man, and ii he was not deceived in regard to
Community. The young man, with a care-worn
countenance, declined saying anything at present
This seemed to imply, / dare not-l am too depend
ent on the community now, but the time will come
when may open my mouth too. The result of the
exposition was this, that the citizens are clearly
convinced OF what they have long thought of this
association-that it is an athestical seminary. and
an impure f0untaln-that the sentiments published
10 the world are Lot, neither can they be, carried
out there.


The house was crowded to excess; the greatest
order wss observed, for which the chairman de-
servedly received vote of thanks, which was en-.
Enthusiastically given. 1t is no easy matter to make
Community folks observe the rules requisi at such
meetings, as they follow the impulse of their own
feelings, unobservant of common usages. The
meeting continued until half past ten, and then re
tired In peaceable manner.


Oae member accused Rector of thieving for
which he has obtai.ed lodgings in the county Jail
for time to await the result Of trial
