deavouring to reconcile contrary and clashng o.
pinions, we have neglected the practical means
which alone can bind man to his fellow man. In
short, we have discovered, that our energies have
been wasted in fruitless efforts, each one endeav-
oring to convince others, that he alone possess
ed the power of unlocking the treasures of social
life. This error it happily dispelled. BY the in
defatigable attention of Mr.. Owen, a degree of
order, ofregularity, ofsystem, has been introduce
ed into every department of business, which
promises increase and pcrmanency The town
now presents scene of active and steady indus
try. the effects of which are visible and papable.
The society is gradually becoming really, as well
as ostensibly, a Community of Equality, bassed
on the equal duties of all Our streets no Ion ger
exhibit groups of idle takers-but each ono is
busily engaged in the occupation he has chosen
for his employment. Our public meetings in
stead of being the arena Of contending orators,
have assumed different character; and are now
places of business where familiar consultations
are held and the most efficient measures adopted
Of producing the comforts of life for all the men,
bcrs. No vain disputations now CRATE upon the
ear of patient industry; but all seem strongly i'm
pressed with the Importance OF applying their
powers to realize the object of cooperative un-

During the last week, much has been done in
this way, and there is every reason to believe
that our progress will not be impeded by lstless-
ness or erroneous views OF our situation. 1t would


indeed be strange, if the experience gained by
the greater part ofthe population, during eleven
months, schooling, with the aid of Mr. Owens
practical knowledge for the last eight weeks,
should be lost upon us.
