ED. RETORTED. - Dear Sir : Seeing
others are free- to express their opinions
concerning secret societies, through your
columns. I will, with your consent, venti
late my own opinion upon that subject.
I am seriously opposed to all organized
secret societies. Ido not think they are
necessary in our-land of liberty and free
institutions. More than that, I believe
they are working mischief to the cause of
Jesus. Besides, they are dangerous to our
freedom,-"—some of them conferring king
ly titles,• which certainly do not become
Americans.

Traitors have in many instances escap
ed justice, who ought to have been hang
ed, or at least imprisoned for life, because
they were shielded by the Lodge from the
penalty their crimes deserved.
There is a-mighty tide of influence eon
stjntly rising in our nation, that will,
sooner or later, burst forth against secret
societies like the old Abolition element in
the days of slavery. - "Our God-is march .
'neon." Those who opposed slavery
- ,were subjeJ to persecution :. so now are
those who oppose secret societies; but
." truth is mighty and will prevail."

Armenia, Pa
En. REPORTER: Agreeably to notice
on the first Thursday of February, at 11
A. )t., the Grangers of Bradford began to
assemble at the house of Bro. TAYLOR, of
Home, and as they continued to come
from the hills'and, valleys of the county,
it'L was gratifying to note the cheerful
faces, the warm and friendly g-reetin 7 of
the brothers. and isisters, showing to a
close observer that this organization has
accomplished much in the way of bring
ing the farmers together where they may
labor in a united brotherhood for the ad
vancement of the interest of, agriculture.
After providing for the faithful beasti
that brought us among this generous peo
ple, tha nest in order was the satisfying
of our appetites, which the ride had done
much to improve, becoming satisfied that
the people of Ronie know how to enter
tain guests, and in, a way that will long
be, remembered by those who were fortu
nate enough to be of the number.
We were called to order by Bro. MUNN,
who with the assistance of our Worthy
State Master PIOLLET, installed the offi
cers for the ensuing year. Theafternoon
session passed off pleasantly and -profita
bly., There were about five hundred
brothers and sisters present. Adjourned
to 7 r. 31.,1 When all those who wished to
be initiated farther in the mysteries of
the order, met at the Odd-Fellows Hall
for that _purpose, when Worthy Master
DELoNo, with the assistance of the other
officers, performed the duties of his office
with credit to himself and the order to
which he belonged. They all returned to
Bro.- TAYLOR'S large hall (not larger, how
ever, than the brother's heart), and there
finished the business of the session, which,
all things considered, was one of the
most interesting ever held in thecouniy.
And when I think of Judge Ps.ss'stone's
large turkeys and •the way they were
roasted, together with the reception we
received at the bands of our brothers and
sisters of Rome, I am glad for one that I
have joined the Grangers.
