FOOTNOTES:
[C] We observe that the account of the Oneida Community given in the Supplement to Chambers' Encyclopædia, begins thus: "Perfectionists or Bible Communists; popularly known as Free Lovers or preachers of Free Love." The whole article, covering several pages, is very careless in its geographical and other details, and not altogether reliable in its statements of the doctrines and morals of the Communists. As materials that get into Encyclopædias may be presumed to be crystallizing for final history, it is to be hoped that the Messrs. Chambers will at least get this article corrected by some intelligent American, for future editions.
