MORE HORRORS OF CAPTURED PARIS
The same witness thus describes his own es
cape: -"On Saturday, Ferre, a member of the
Commune and Delegate of the Public Safety,
came to the prison, and summoning all those
who were under sentence of penal servitude,
told them that they were all free. Arms and
uniforms were then given to them, and imme
diately commenced a scene of slaughter of the
suspected prisoners, among whom were 66 gen
darmes, who were all killed. Five other gen
darmes in the Infirmary escaped. About 7
o'clock, the newly-armed guards being either j
orunK or wearied with tneir Diooay wont, one
of the warders ef the prison, Langevln, opened
the cell doors and invited the prisoners to make
a rush to save their lives. Acting upon this ad
Tlce, M. Evrard and many others got through
the gates, and dispersing immediately, suc
ceeded in effecting their escape."
THIS RTtVOLT ASCRIBED TO MENTAL DISEASE.
M. Francisque Sarcey reports in the Gauloia
a conversation he has had with "an illustrious
physician who had left Paris for a few hours,
ana was about to return," and who expressed
the opinion that one of the chief causes of the
terrible scenes which accompanied the final sup
pression of the Communist outbreak was a
"contagious mental alienation." The minds of
the Parisians, he said, were gradually unhinged
by the privations of the siege. The revolt of
the 18th of March gave the last blow to brains
which were already shaken, and at length the
greater part of the population went raving
mad. The records of the middle ages
are full of similar examples.
Women are, under such circumstances,
fiercer and more reckless than men. This
is because their nervous system is more devel
oped, their brains are weaker, and their sensi
bilities more acute than those of the stronger
sex; and they are consequently far more
dangerous and do much more harm.
None of them knew exactly what they were
fighting for; they were possessed by one of the
various forms of the religious mania that which
Impelled the Jansenists to torture themselves,
with a strange delight in pain of the acutest
kind. The men who threw themselves
on the bayonets of the soldiers in a paroxysm of
passion were seen ten minutes after utterly
prostrate and begging for mercy. They were no
more cowards in the last state than they were
heroes in the first they were simply madmen.
HORRIBLE ASPECT OF TUB CEMETERY .
The Cemetery of Pere-la-Chalse prseents a
deplorable sight; the resting places of the dead
are mach defiled; the monuments have been
greatly injured by the firing; coffins have been
broken, and the remains lie scattered over the
ground. Yon may measure the dead not by
numbers but by the rod. They lie in a double
tier on the grass, powdered over with a coating
of lime. There are many women among them,
and faces the ferocity oi which makes one sick
to look npon.
BUENOS AIRES.
Ravages of the Yellow Fever
A private letter, dated at the city ef Buenos
Ayres on the 2d of May, gives the following ac
count of the ravages oi the plague in that
city:
The fever Is still raging awfully, the mortality
reaching 130 per day, with very little decrease
since I last communicated with you. The Gov
ernment has prolonged the holidays until spring,
hoping to allay the terrible spread of the
disease. With the approach of the cold wea
ther we expected mat the plague would
gradually disappear, but, finding that there
Fa little or bo diminution In the num
ber of deaths, we await with great fear the
coming of spring, and then, God only knows
what will become of us. Large numbers of peo
ple will probably return at the close of the holi
days, and then we also expect an Increase in
the mortality. The fever hospitals are literally
crammed with the ill-fated victims of the terri
ble epidemic. The Bisters of Charity, who are
indefatigable in the performance of their offices
to the sick and dying, day after day surrender
eome of their corps to the fell disease, and many
of them, though not atllictea with it, actually
fall throagh weakness, and have to be carried to
their convents after many hours of fatigue. The
Order of the Christian Brothers have little
relief from their offices of burying the dead and
striving to impart some consolation to those
dying in temporary hospitals. Many of those
brothers have also fallen victims of the fever
while fulfilling their noble duties. The clergy
men of every denomination have proved them
. selves heroic, and full of Christian charity in
administering to the plague-stricken, and in
seeking relief for the numberless widows and
orphans who, fearful of their Imminent fate, not
Knowing when they may be prostrated Dy tae
, epidemic, etill linger la misery within the un
happy city. .
Dead-cars rattle over the pavement at all
hours of the night, awakening to terror those
who resided along their route. Several rude
coilins at a time were thrust into the dead-cars,
and rolled away in haste to a huge grave
formed outt-lde the Puerta Mobile. One of the
most heart-rending of scenes was that presented
by many wives, mothers, and husbands, who
begged admittance iinto me Hospitals to learn
the fate of their loved ones. As no permis
sion to enter could be given to mem, ana
the hospital officials were too much occupied
with their duties to the patients to attend to any
outside matter, those people had to depart to
their wretched homes, bearing with them their
agonlzlDe doubts as to the safety of their rela
tives. In flue, it is a city of death and tears,
deserted by all that could possibly hasten from
its fever-tainted streets and alleys, and sorrow
ful in the loneliness which overhangs its parks,
gardens, churches, and all that was lair, cheer
ful, and life-like a few weeks ago.

The Knights Templars' Demonstration at
uarnsDurg.
Special Despatch to The Evening Telegraph,
Harrisburo, Jane 15. This morning dawned
bright. There were large arrivals of Comman
deries of Knights Templar in the early trains.
The escorts and music of the bands drew forth
the people by dawn. The streets are crowded.
It. II. Lamberton, Grand Master of Pennsylva
nia, was serenaded by Cyrene Commandery of
Columbia.
The Grand Parade
commenced to form at half-past nine on Second
street, right resting on State, and about ten
o'clock proceeded In the following order:
Grand Marshal and Aids on Horses.
Standard Brass Band,
rilgrlm Commandery, Uarrlsburg 100 Men.

The visiting Sir Knights numbered several
hundred, with small delegations from nearly all
the commanderies in the State. With the visiting
Sir Knights, bands of music, and officers there
were about eleven hundred men in line, and the
rich equipments and caparisons present one of
the
Most Magnificent Displays
ever seen in llarrlsburg.
The line countermarched on Second street,
and was reviewed by the Grand Commander and
Grand Officers of the Grand Commandery in
the square, where the spectacle was particularly
brilliant, every available space being occupied
by ladies and gentlemen. The route of parade
was over two miles long, and at about 12 o'clock
It reached Locust Street Methodist Episcopal
Church, which was already crowded to excess,
principally by ladies, many not being able to
get in.
Tickets of Invitation had been Issued, and ad
missions were confined to these, but not half
those entitled to admission could be accommo
dated.
The new officers elected yesterday, whose
names were telegraphed yon, were Installed
with the usual beautiful ceremonies of Christian
Knighthood, and the address of Sir Sidney Hay
den, ot Athens, Bradford county, was listened
to with marked attention.
Annual Address by Sir Sidney Hayden.
Right Eminent Grand Commander: It being your
will and pleasure that I should address this Grand
Body of Knights Templar, it becomes my duty to
comply, lor it Is yours to command and mine to
obey.
From the Intelligent Sir 'Knights who surround
me, I must beg the Indulgence of so far departing
from the usual form and matter of addresses on
occasions like this, as to leave the early character
and history of Templar Knighthood to your own In
vestigations through our most reliable histo
ries. It is not the Templarism of other climes and
feudal ages that I would discuss, but some of Its
features and Incidents as a part of our present sys
tem of American Freeniasourv. In this svsteni It
lias become the Masonic sequel of the three ancient
degrees of the York Kite, luciuaing the Koyal Arch.
In the modern manipulations of the Ancient York
Kite, many of the teachings of its three primary
fundanimul degrees have been dissevered Iroin
tbem to form our present capuuiar, cryptic, ana
chlvalric organizations.
I do not pretend to decide how wisely or unwisely
this has been done, nor to determine in our various
amplified ritualisms, consequent on these modern
subdivisions of Ancient Masonry, where the true
line Is letween fanciful legends and historic verities.
To the novice In Masonry any commingling of
m)tmcal legends with veritable mstorio truths may
seem incongruous and a blemish upon our rituals;
but vou. Sir Kniebts. well know that the essence.
tbe soul, nor the unity of Masonry consists of its
rituals alone. These are but huaka that surround
tbe golden grain the caskets that contain the
gems.
Masonry is an allegory of human life not the life
of one Individual, or nation, or generation of men,
but of tbe whole human race, from its birth in Eden
down to tbe "time when Time shall be no more." It
contemplates man as he came from the band of his
Creator, as bearing upon him, however faintly, soma
Impress of uncreated goodness, uncreated intellec
tual Knowledge, uuu uivine spiritual iigui; ior we
read that '-In the linage of God created be him."
But being subject to temptation, man transgressed
a Divine command, and clouds have since so over
shadowed his pathway lu life that he can regain the
Eden he has lost only by passing through the dart
gates of the tomo ! , t
"Soma flow ret. of Eden wer. left by tbe fall,
but tbe trail of tti. arpant i. ov.r Uiein all.
Thus 1 read the sublime allegory of Masonry that
pervades It in all Us rites, and has In all ages and
hi every clime. It Is the baais upon which all Ma
sonic science is founded. It Is as ancient as our
race, as uuiveraal as our brotherhood, aud as un
changeable as the laws of our being. .
From It we see the ancient aud universal division
of Freemasonry into three primary degrees. The
Urst, that of an Entered Apprentice, treats man as a
mnrni i.finff. lu ii Hsoiig are all those of morality.
given in our mystic forms under a veil of secrecy. It
inculcates every moral duty which man owes, ever
has owed, or ever can owe to his fellow-man. This
degree has a monitor In every Maaou's breast, and
lo attain u primeval perieuuvu u uw wiau ui
trna Itunn'a heart.
The second degree, that of Fellow Craft, treats
man as an inUUectual being, and inculcates the cul
tivation of science in all its various branches. It
points to Nature's laws, ana instructs us vo -iuua
fhrnnoh Nature nn tn Nature's GOd."
The lUlia degree, mat OI aaasior iuaouu, trrsb
man as an immortal being. It tells us by the most
, lujpreaaive myatlo rites that man Das a nereairer,
ait hiiUiortaUiy, a new life beyond the grave, for a
knowledge of this hereafter we are dertAndent na
Divine revelation alone. Man's moral powers can
not remove, nor can his Intellectual vision penetrate,
the darkness of tbe tomb. Divine revelation has
assured him of an immortal lite beyond It, and this
Is the great lesson of tbe third degree.
The alle gory of Masonry thus covers in its philo
sophy the three grand endowments of man at hla
creation in Eden, contemplates his debasement by
transgression, and opens to his comprehension,
through an Inward monitor, the book of Nature ana
Divine revelation, man's creaust good on earth.
and Immortal life and happiness beyond tbe grave.
The wisdom of man has never yet found another
feature In bis history here, or hope of development
hereafter, on which to base an independent degree
In Masonry. Man as a moral being, man as an inteU '
leetual being, and man as an immortal being, baa
covered the whole ground; and upon this the sub
lime auegory rr Masonry, wun its tnrce ancient de
grees, stand as a beautiful and secure architectu
ral column, Morailtv Its base, Science Its shaft, and
Revelation Its capital.
All the so-called higher degrees In Masonry, in
cluded In capitular and cryptic organizations, are
merely amplifications or historic elucidations of the
allegory of Masonry as contained In the three an
cient degrees. Thev mav be beautiful adornments
of the ancient Masonic column, but they do not add
to its reat dimensions, it stands at the footstool
of creation, is as broad as the circle ot nature, and
as uign as our nope oi neaven.
From a period thus so ancient that the memory of
man hath not kept Its beginning, or the pen ef his
tory recorded the early Incidents of its progress, the
Masonic institution came down Into the last century
as one of but three degrees. It Is well known to
you, and It is of Interest to the history of Masonry
in Pennsylvania, In all its branches ef the York Rite,
that the division of English Masonry from which
onr present primary organization sprang was tbe
one to first dissever from the three ancient degrees
historic ana legendary parts, and ritualize from
them instructions to be separately given as an ad
ditional degree or degrees, under the same lodge
organizations.
It was thus that the Royal Arch had Its birth as a
separate degree, with ceremonial and ritualistic am
plifications of a section or sections of third ancient
degree. It was not founded upon any new and dis
tinct idea In Masonry. It only increased the efful
gence or light beyond the tomb, and assured the
traveller there that what he lost In death would be
gained in Immortality.
When tbe middle of the last century had passed,
our Pennsylvania authorities state that evidences of
tbe working of the Royal Arch Degree In Philadel
phia under an Ancient York Lodge warrant, are
soon to be found. It had had Its couceptlon a few
years oerore in toe Ancient xork ooay in London,
aud as Philadelphia was the Masonic ground floor
where tbe work of that grand body was commenced
in America, in that city the Royal Arch Degree, aa
the fourth in Masonry, was probably for the first
time conierrea in tms country.
As facts which I am now relating were a prelude
to the Introduction of Templarlsui in America, it
may be Interesting to Pennsylvania Templars to
take a retrospective glance at some of the previous
footprints of Masonry in the American Colonies.
As early as 1730 that grand body in England
afterwards denominated Moderns attempted to
establish its polity in America by the appointment
of Daniel Coxe as Provincial Grand Master ot New
York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. In 1732 the
old newspapers of Philadelphia mention a Masonic
J.ouee in that city, in liss tneurana Lodge or
Moderns of England appointed Henry Price Pro
vincial Grand Master in New England, and in the
following year over all the American colonies, and
the Masons of Philadelphia took a warrant under
him with Dr. Franklin as their Master. Under a
succession of like appointments by the Modern
grand body many lodges were established in the
Iff rent colonies by about the middle of the last
century, working only three degrees.
Tne w uno raw ai oi someoi tne masons anu lodges
in London In 1736 from the Grand Lodge formed
there In 1717, and the establishment of a separate
Grand Lodge by them under the denomination of
Anolent York Masons, was probably the primal
cause of the division in tbe three ancient and uni
versal degrees In Masonry.
It has been asserted that Alexander Dermott,
who was at that time a prominent Mason in the
Ancient York Division, was the most active in con
structing and legalizing in It the Royal Arch and
other modern appendage degrees ot the York Rite.
' He has been called a restless and turbulent Mason.
He was at least an influential one, for while he was
the ruling spirit In the Ancient York Body in Lon
don, it gained a fraternization witn tne urana
Lodges of both Scotland and Ireland, amidst Its de
nunciation by the Grand Lodge of Moderns In
xjigiana. :
History shows, too, the unison of the Grand
Lodges of Scotland and Ireland with that of the An
cient York of London, not only in promulgating the
Royal Arch and other dissevered parts of Ancient
craft Masonry as supplemental degrees, but also in
grantmg warrants in tne American colonies, unaer
which these degrees were worked. -
It was during the period known in our colonial
history as the old French war that these new sys
tems of Masonry were introduced In our country;
in Boston and In Virginia in 1766, and in South Caro
lina In 1760. under warrants from the Grand Ledge
of Scotland, and In Philadelphia In 1758, under one
from the Grand Lodge of Ancient York Masons In
London. Other warrants from both these grand
lodges, and also from the Grand Lodge of Ireland,
were brought over about the same period for work
in the British army or In specified localities. These
all became the parent stocks on which the super
numerary degrees in Masonry first, the Royal
Arch and lu kindred group, and afterwards Ma
sonic knighthood grew. , .
I am not saying that Tefoplarlsm, as a historic or
chlvalric organization, had Its birth akla to that of
tbe Royal Arch Degree. As a religious, military,
and chlvalric order It had a well known existence
centuries before the Royal Arch was known as a
distinct decree in Masonry. But neither its reli
gions, military, or chlvalric features made its orga
nization then a part of our Masonic mystic rites.
Where, then, is tbe feature In Its philosophy and
the epoch In Its history that have given It a
place In our system of American Masonry? I have
already spoken of tbe third point In the allegory of
ancient Masonry, as comprehending In its sublime
design that new, unending life beyond the grave
which constitutes the Immortality of the soul.
The wisest human philosophy can give no assur
ance for this beyond a hope. It Is Divine revelation
alone that removes every doubt and makes assur
ance all we desire. Every system of ancient mystlo
rites had the germ of this truth, budding and deve
loping mere aud more fully as it kept the remem
brance of the Divine Providence to fallen man in
Eden: "The seed of the woman shall bruise the
serpent's head."
I was once told by a learned Hebrew scholar, that
in the ancient lore of their nation they enumerated
the scenes in the sad drama of Eden as Ave the
temptation, the transgression, the penitence, the
prayer, and the promise; that these fermed an
epitome of ancient Hebraic theology, and were
often symbolized by a mystic star with five points;
that this figure was also used by the ancient Greeks
in their mysteries, to symbolize the five human
senses. We also know that the early teachers of
Christianity used many of the more ancient syni
belsand customs to impress the new doctrines of
the Christian dispensation, and, among these, that
of the tive-poiuted star, to sviubollze the physical
sufferings of the Saviour at the crucifixion, repre
senting by it tbe five wounds inflicted on His person
those in Ills hands, His feet, and His side. It la
also well known to you that this figure is still often
used as a Christian symbol in the Christmas decora
tions of churches, and also In ecclesiastic architec
ture, reminding the devout worshipper of the birth,
the life, tbe death, the resurrection, and the ascen
sion of our Divine Redeemer.
It is in this confirmation by the resurrection and
ascension to His native skies of the Saviour of the
world that the final triumph of Ufa over death and
good over evil is, according ta the Divine promise In
Eden, confirmed unto mau. This la the overflowing
cup of the promise which Is so dear to the Chris
tian faith. - '
In the sublime ceremonies of the third degree the
power of the Lion of the tribe of Judab is foreshad
owed to tbe Christian Mason in a manner which, if
comprehended, is never forgotten. It is the great
triumph of this power over ttin and death, which is
so impressively exemplified lu our Templar rituals
and ceremonies, that links, In the philosophy of Ma
sonic science, Christian knighthood with Ancient
Craft Masonry. Both tbe esoteric and exoteric parts
of our American system of Templar knUhthood,
like those of the Royal Arch degree, are but amplifi
cations or historic elucidations of cur third degree
In Ancient Masonry. j .
. It is no part of my design to-day to discuss the
formulas of Ancient Templa Knighthood. Its pro
fessed object at It institution In toe twelfth century
(ills), you well know, was to protect Christian pil
grims in their journeys to tbe Holy Land. Much has
been written on tbe subject of its identity or affinity
with tbe Freemasonry of that period, without, I
think, establishing the point beyond a doubt. That
at a later day, when misfortunes had nearly over
whelmed tbe Templar organization, Its persecuted
members sought security by an alliance of Templar
ism with Freemasonry, has been more generally
conceded ; but the time., tbe place, and the terms of
that alliance are matters rather of tradition than
positive historical certainty. Whether It was under
Robert Bruce, in the fourteenth century (iau), at
Bannocktmru, or not until the Uttor days of Protea
tantkiin in Europe, is not for we here la dUt-.-uss.
It has been asserted b modern writers that Chris- i
tlan Knighthood was a connecting link between
Freemasoury and chlvalrr. However trae or false
this may be, we know that It made an impress on
society in bvgone ages which is still seen la many of
onr modern tames and customs. They studied na
ture as we study books, and named and dedicated
the flowers that bloomed along their pathways from
their calendar saints or some supposed connection
with Christianity, either In creed or legend, making
their materia tntdica a kind Of materia tancta.

But with whatever fancies thev decorated their
religious doctrines and customs, the pillar of their
iaun wag tne resurrection of tne Divine neaeemer.
In remembrance of this their sacred words of
friendly greeting on ChriBtmas were, "Christ is
risen." This brightest gem tn the diadem of ancient
unriHtian Kiugntnood is to-day a jewel in tne casaet
of American Temnlar Masonrv. A brighter one
cannot be added till the coming of that linal morn
wnen tne eon or itignteousness snail again arise,
and Masonry, Christian knighthood, and revealed
religion be swallowed np in the effulgence of its
light.
I have spoken of the traditionary ancient alliance
of Templar ism with Masonry, but I know of no re
corded union of these organisations nntll after the
establishment of the two rival Grand Lodges In Lon
don Just before the middle of the last century. I am
aware that a system of Templar Masonry of a re
puted political character is said to have been formed
In the time of Cromwell (about 1600). But it was
probably neither true Templarlsm, nor Masonry, ex
cept In name.
Time does not permit on this occasion of a his
toric review, showing the infant footprints of f em
plarlsm in this country, while Masonry was provin
cial. Our Very Kmlnent Sir Knight who Is the offi
cial historiographer ef knighthood in this jurisdic
tion, has already well shown voa how its early orga
nizations were formed, and I hope not to seem to
intrude on his prerogative in giving a few brief notes
frem American historic documents illustrating tbe
point 1 have already set forth, that It was the An
cient York Lodges, together with these working
nnder warrants from the Grand Lodges of Scotland
and Ireland, that first Introduced the degrees of
Masonlo Knighthood here.
Tbe earliest working of them seems to have been
supplemental, purely honorary, and scarcely re
corded, without any design to form with them dis
tinct Masonic organizations.
There Is among the old records of St. Andrew's
Lodge in Boston an entry, under the date of 1769, like
this: .
"The petitlon of brother William Davis ooming before
tbe lodge, begging to have and reoeive the parts belonging-
to a Hoyal Arch Mason, which being read was re
ceived, and be was nnanimoualy voted in, and was accord
ingly made by receiving the four .tens, that ef KiceU.nt,
Super-Excellent, Royal Arch, and Knight Templar."
Others may have received the Templar degree as
early or earlier there In connection with the Royal
Arch, who . .
"Under unlettered, moss-grown .tones i , ,
So long have alept, that fickle Fame I
Uas blotted from her roll, each name." j
St. Andrew s Lodge was then working there nnder
a warrant from the Grand Lodge or Scotland, and
when degrees beyond the first three were con
ferred nnder it, "it was in what they termed a
"Royal Arch Lodge." , t i
Such was also the Ancient York custom ' in those
provincial times. In accordance with it the early
Ancient York Lodges or Philadelphia worked the
Royal Arch under their warrants, and probably the
Templar or other orders in Knighthood, as Masonlo
degrees, - long before distinct bodies of these
orders were organized in tbls country. We thus find
Colonel Tbemaa Proctor, of Philadelphia, who was
the Master of the oldest lodge In that cltv at tbe
commencement of the Revolution, addressed as a
Knight Templar in 1779 in tbe Masonlo Ode to him,
published in 173 In our old Pennsylvania Ahiman
llezon of that date.
In a letter from Edward Day, Master of Lodge No.
19 ef Cincinnati, who was a Pennsylvania Ancient
York Mason, written to the Grand Lodge of New
Jersey in March, 1795, he speaks of having been
"initiated into the Bubllme degrees of Masonry aa far
as that of Knight of Malta" long before. f
AS a further Illustration of the Pennsylvania cus
tom, while Ancient York Masonry was provincial In
It, 1 give the following copy of a diploma granted In
1786 by an Ancient York lodge In Georgia, then
working under a warrant from our Provincial Grand
Lodge: - . .
"We tbe High Priest and offioera of the Royal Arch
chapter, and King, Uoverner, and General of tbe Order
of Knighta of the Red Croaa, Do hereby oertify, That the
bearer, our trne and wall beloved breiher Ulrit tiobler,
Past-master of oar lodge, was by u. Initiated into tbe sub
lime degree of an Excellent. Super Excellent Royal Arch
And he having conduoted himself like a true and faithful
brother, we affectionately recommend aim to all the fra
ternity ef Masons around the Globe wheresoever assem-.
bled. Done ia our Illustrious Grand Chapter (under the
sanction of Lodge No. 42 in the Registry of Pennsylvania),
bald in Savannah, Georgia, this S4ta day of January, 1786,
and in the year of Koyal A rob. Masonry 8786."
The seal of this diploma was of red wax, and bore
various Masonic emblems, among which waa the
Templars' Insignia of the serpent and cross, with the
motto above, in noo ttgrur vincet. it also had in a
circle "Lodge No. 48, Ancient York Masons."
There are also many old dusty documents of the
last century scattered about the old States which
show the recognized presence of Templars on many
occasions in public Masonlo processions in the early
days of our Republic. Thus, at the public celebra
tion of St. John's day in both 1791 and . 1795,! in New
York city, they were noted as present m the oro
.ceedlDgs, and also at the laying of the corner-stone
of the old Academy in Newark, New Jersey, in
1792. - I ,
I have thus hastily selected these historic notes
relating to features and incidents In early Templar
Masonry In America to show vou its more intimate
relation w 1th Ancient York Masonry In out Ameri
can system than to any other theory of polity
and ritualism which existed here while we were
provincial, or has since the present American sys
tem was formed. i
Did time permit, and I dared trespass longer on
your patience, 1 would remind you here, as Penn
sylvania Ancient York Masons of the Templar
Order, bow, when the provincialism of Masonry in
this country was changed to independence at the
close of our colonial existence, and the craft orga
nized State Grand Lodges in each Jurisdiction in
every one except Pennsylvania, there were oompro
niist s to a greater or less extent made In their polity
and manner of work, to harmonize and unite the
various forms of Provincial Masonry which had
heretofore existed in them. i i
Pennsylvania alone bad at the time but one class
of Masonic lodges In existence, for the lodges of
Moderns wbtch had had their origin nnder Dr.
Franklin had all become extinct dunug the he volu
tion; and none of their elements were mingled with
Ancient York Masonry in tbe formation of one ln-
dependent Grand Lodge. Pennsylvania therefore
stands to-day, In ber primary head of tbe order, as
purely Ancient York as when under her provincial
system; while in all other jurisdictions in this
country changes, perhaps unimportant In them
selves, have wrought out a distinct American sys
tem of work. . t
You thus see why Templarism In this State was
the last to leave tne official protecting wing of our
Grand Lodge, and adopt the forms and polity of
American Templarism by a union with the Grand
Encampment of the United States, with which it is
to-day connected. Ancient York Masonry still
stands in one State like an aged oak; with Its
branches widespread and Its roots deep in our soli.
Tbe fir trees and the cedar trees of other Jurisdic
tions may be taller and to them more fragrant and
beautiful, but Templarism In our State loves the
shade of the oak under which It was planted, and
so long entwined among its branches. , .
But the great American column of Masonlo
Knighthood waa incomplete without It, ana to-day
we proudly stand among its clustered supports ou
the same Ancient York basis aa they, assisting to
elevate high the beacon light to all Masons, showing
that the great promise of Eden is fuluiied; that the
Temple la computed, for Cbkist id Kihsn.

still In excels of wants, lu call loans there is a
moderate demand to meet the wants of the

The gold market Is quiet but steady, the pre
