It was at midsummer of this year that the Tribune announced the failure of the North American Phalanx, and the sale of its property in New Jersey.

There was the North American Phalanx, so called, in New Jersey, twenty miles from New York; the Ontario Phalanx, in northern New York; there was one in Ohio, and there were several others. But none of them was successful; they did not pay. So we at Brook Farm made the change we had so long considered.
