u, wcSe dcsirous OF viewing for themselves


~ ts.rtiful location selected for this first move

M M Attractive Industry in the Great West. A
;.ssplion by fog prevented our arriving at Wheel


- ss carly as we had anticipated, the shades of
s;sbt fast surrounding the place as VIC approach


On Sabbath morning hack which we had cn-


.,sed on the previous evening, took us down TO


.Ss pbalanx by little after 9 o'clock, where, in
he % absence Of E. p. GRANT, Esq. the President,
- we're kindly received by Vice President
4 DEWEY and Rev. JAMES P. STUART, late OF West
\ lid, Medina County, Ohio, who introduced us
4 = ouitc a number Of the members of the Asso-


1iaton, who were engaged in reading in the va


ious buildings on the Domain, or strolling in
,mali groups over the fine lands of which it was


nmposed, viewing the large hocks of sheep, tho
/ ..rle. or an occasional steamboat ruffiing the
4 ,lac;d bosom of the most beautiful river in the
world.
The Domain consists of fine tract of 2,l00
| acres containing much rich bottom land, whilst
ae we'll tmbcred hills ascend from the margin of
| The Ohio with gentle 4 Slope as to add much
10 the appearance of the place without preventing
| 4, cultivation when clearcd-nearcr the river we
nave second and third bank of beautiful mca
low ascending the base Of the hills overlooking
| the Domain aud commanding vie" of the
Ohio, on either hand, for miles, with the beautl"
| Ill farms on the bottom land opposite. The soil
| ) exceedingly rich throughout, and the lower
| nundary is formed by M'Manus's Creek, upon
| .hch is erected fine saw-mill in ful, operation,
,rnishing the lumber requisite for the temporary
buildings in process OF erection, which must con.
tam the members until an edifce suitable III every
J way is put up. -
Soon after our arrival at the Phalanx, a small
bell announced ;hat the Gospel was about being
preached Repairing to the Dining Hall, (Which
icing the largest room of the buildings now up,
Ess used for meetings, &C. we listened to most
Icellen sermon from Mr. STUART, who alluded
Isry happily in his remarks to CHARLES Fourier,
one Of the good "gilts" which "GoD gave TO
man," and objected 10 the manner IN which ma
| ~ protesting Christians spoke of tho ALMIGHTY
"a a God of Terror and not as a Mcrcitut Crca-
hr-,hat it was useless to pray continually for
GoD 10 como to us, it was our duty to approach
lin. to leave our manifold errors and live as di-
! nc,ed by his Holy Word.


He spoke of CHARLES FOURIER as a great man,
iven US by the Almighty that we might receive
l,om him instruction. He was not God, nor
| we're his words those of divine inspiration like
thpse which fell from the lips of Moses and the
prophets of old-yet he was great man, raised
10, he doubted not, by the Almighty for peculiar
purposes at this great crisis in mans social condl-
ton.


After he had concluded the sermon, II. II.
vAS AMaINGE, Esq. of this City, who was pre-
sent, was desired by Mr.. STUART to make few
remarks, which he did-alluding to the day be-
ing the anniversary of the birth of FOURIER, the
great Social Philosopher, and alluding TO Indus.
trial Association with regard to It's bearing on
Religion. He then spoke Of the Social condition
ofMan, and compared society to lunatlc, Its
members all opposed to each other-thcir inter,
ests all diverse; while in truth we are all men,
beS Of one great body, and as no sane man takes
a weapon in one hand to hack and mutllate his
own body, the interests Of all the limbs being
{ Identical, SO should the members of Society work
0t the common good Of all, IN the common sue
cess of which they should be equally interested
The great Social maniac should be taught that
each limb had its appropriate duty TO perform,
and all were interested in sustaining the CON-
mon body. Mr. VAN AMRINGE was heard with
marked attention, and when nc had finished, the
exercises concluded as they had opened, with
singing and prayer-an excellent choir, with
instrumental music, adding an appropriate har-
uony to the worship Of the TMuNE Con.


The establishment of the ONO PHALANX has
extended the preaching of Cons Word, as the
people from the surrounding farms ilocked 10 the
plainly furnished house where simple Christians
sorshiped Gop in spirit and in truth. We pre-
sumo that the number present amounted to nearly
Eighty persons. Notice was given that lecture
would be delivered in the evening by Rev. Mr.
STUART, on Man and his Dutics,'' which we
have no doubt was handled in a proper manner
i we may Judge from that gentleman's discourse
in the morning. A plain, unessuming, pious
man, Mr.. STUART cannot fail being tavorltt
With all his fellow laborers on their beautiful Do
main


After preaching VIC took stroll along th'
bank orthe rver-over the rolling grounds above
and extending our walk To the summit of tn
bills, and viewing the beautiful landscapeand flint
fsnn of the Phaanx We have not seen a bet
ter location for the Industrial Association move
ment, one combining so many advantagcs-easy
OF communication, excellent soil, and capable o
being baculiGed and improved to an unlimited dc
gree We were most agreeably disappointed in
the appearance of the land and the present posi-
ton OF the movement.


The persons on the Domain at the present time
are but for,y-two, thirteen of whom arrived but a
Cay or two previous TO our visit, bringing with
them couple of teams OF fiue horses and thir.
teen head OF cattle. The men were hearty, 70.
bust and in.elligcnt-sil active and young, with
hearts trusting in the future for rccompensc for
the tolls they must undergo in laying the founda.
ton for the noble structure Of Social Regenera.

Little children looked the very image OF health

hned cities, but regular country rosebuds.
