The Proee edingl'.:Of the Gi'antl Council of the
Supreme Order of the Star Spangled Banner.
Commonly called KnoW-Nothings. which Met
on Tuesday week, and .Idjourned on Wed
nesdaq Nlohj,'at Twelve O'clock.
The Philadelphia Pennsylvanian lays before
the public a complete exposure of the proceed
lags of the Know Nothing Convention which
.%scul bjed_in_that city on Tuesday week.-- The
Convention , it will be perceived, adjourned.
from one place to another in escape the reporter
of the Pennsylvanian; but it
,seems he went
with them---:and no sooner.hail they separated,
su pposing everything to have been done snugly
and secretly, than they
.were startled by the
;appearance of no Extra. Pennsylvanian, with
the subjoined EXPOSURE! •-
The Grand State Council of Know-Nothings
met in this city on Tuesday, the 3d of October,
1854, at 10 o'clock, A. M. After several un
successful attempts to organize, the Convention
adjourned till 1 o'clock, P. M.
AFTERNOON SESSION, 1 o'cLock, P. M.
Convention re-assembled in the Franklin Hall,
' in Sixth street, below Arch..'
A member stated that it was necessary to
adjourn to the room of the Anierican Mechan
ics, inasmuch as there miolit he a. dozen re
porters of THE PENNSYLVANIAN present ;
that the disclosures already contained in that
paper, were of such-a character and so near
the truth in their details, that it has become
a matter of the greatest importance to guard
against further danger in this respect: if they
would hope to-preserve their 'organization from
immediate dissolution. Already had thou
sands of men left- them who hid become
alarmed at the certainty, of the exposure.
A resolution to adjourn to the Mechanics'
Hall was then carried.
1111 , :cmAN ALL.—The members then pro
ceeded to the Mechanics' . Hall, where they re
mained for scale time - in a state of confusion,
displaying the greatest bitterness °Heeling.
The following persons were then elected offi
cers of the Convention :
President—Prof. TIFFANY. of Carlisle.
Vice President—JOHN A. STACEY, Esq.,
of Delaware county.
Secretary—THOMAS L. GIFFORD; Esq.,
of Philadelphia.
-- Trea - strrerALEX ,
*Marshal —C.'P. AILTENCH,' Esq., of Harris-
burg.
The following are the names of some of the
fmembers from different counties . and towns :
—Perry county, Dr. JENKINS ; .11/egheny. JOHIs;
FREEZE: Pittsburg, J. ]earl. Joins: TnomrsoN:
Cumberland, JOHN RINGLAND York, '`.Mr..
SMALL, a one armed man; Ilairisburg, 0. F.
Meuxcli, Mr. CORKENS, Col. Covnituv...l. Wm: I
LowEit ; Bradford, Dr. Milos : Dr.'
SELTzEn. Mr. CoaKENs was plected a delegate
to the National Convention, and is also Chair-
man of the Dauphin Lodge.
- -
The number of Delegates present—repre
senting every portion of the State—was 652,
five of whom, however, were not permitted to
take seats.
Mr. JACOB JOHNSON, from Kutztown, Berks
county, said that his Council had 200 mem
bers, and if the Grand Coimcil persisted in'
riding hit) out, every man will vote for 'BIGLER.
After an animated and somewhat personal de
bate, it was decided that Mr. JonssoN was
not entitled to his seat.
Mr. TIFFANY, the President, addressed the
Council in effect that he was exceedingly sen
sitive about the proceedings becoming known
of published. Se much had already been giv-,
en in the columns - of the Philadelphia Penh,y /-
vanion as to make it absolutely necessary that
every precaution be taken to 'prevent a similar
result. Ile was free to confess that if the pro
ceedings of the present Council should get into
the papers, lid would withdraw from the Order.
Ile stated that he was a Professor in the Col
lege at-Carlisle, and he felt that it would do
him serious injury if it should be known he
belonged to such a secret organization. He
also stated.that• in the event of - publicity all
his friends would retire with him. .
That already had the people become alarmed
at the dangerous tendency of a secret organi
zation like this, and it was all important that
we should throw more binding guards around
our secrets—not only for the purpose of mak
ing sure the election of our candidates, but to
protect ourselves from any odium which Might
attach to us, if our names should - be exposed.
He said tha.che, for one, was unwilling to in
• cur the risk of such exposures. No one can
doubt that the vigilance of the Pennsylvanian
has done much to destroy us, and further suc
cess, on the part of that paper, will be a most
fatal blow to our objects.
Mr. NICHOLAS THORNE, of this city, agreed
• with the president in reference to the publica
tion of the proceedings. He would have no
thing to do with the Order any more if such
`au occurrence took place.
A- statement was then made as regards the
number of Lodges in the State. It appears
that there arc 635, containing 110,000 mom
bers-80,000 in good standing. That most of
the members.were Whigs, and that such Dent
ocrats as were in the Order, were fast becom
ing alai toed and either leaving or being ex
pelled. That within the last two weeks there
have been 30,000 resignations and expulsions.
That there were at present 18.000 Democrats
in the Order in the entire State. many of whom
it was feated would resign or be expelled be
fore the day of the election.
The whole number of the Order in the city
of Philadelphia, was stated to be 13,000.
It was stated that 4,000 members have left'
or been expelled from the Order in this city,

State Council, dining the session, was ~T icon--deroz,a."
--deroz,a." The Vice Th-eside-nt-furnished the
delegates and sitting Members with the pass
• word.
The new pass-words for the Subordinate
Lodges were furnished to the Presidents of
' each Lodge, or a proper member of each Sub ,
ordinate Lodge delegated to receive them.
They are as follows :—"ln place of "'l'R-AT
TORS," as formerly published by the Penn
, sy/vanian,js substituted “PEACE." At the
second doorJriflike - ill'''BEW ARE," is "FOR -
EVER," and -BUNKER HILL" for "M."
Second degree, in place of "76," "TRENTON."
By these signs any person can get into a Lodge
in: any
_part of the State. The pass-words,
grips and signs are not_allowed to be printed.
[The grips and signs are the same as have al -
readybeen published in the Pennsylvanian.]
A strong moee was made to have the sign
eliap . ged as it had been exposed in the Penn
' syl*ian. A warm and exciting debate arose,
and finally the question being taken, the DLO
tiok-was lost—on the ground that the national
Council alone had the power to alter the signs.
A resolution was offered by WILLIAM D.
BAKER in relation to the Order going armed
and seizing upon the ballot-boxes.
This resolution is of such a treasonable and
illegal character that we refrain from its pub
lication for the present. as the carrying out of
the object of the mover may subject hitn and
his associates toil criminal prosecution. The
resolution which was carried will be published
after the election.
At this stage of the proceedings of the Coun
cil, a most 'disgraceful altercation took place
between the Presidents i of the York Springs
cotinci4palid Huntingdon council. One of the
gentlemen is a clergyman and the other a law
yer. They freely used the most opprobrious
epithets towards each other, calling one another
liars !" "scoundrels," . &c. The discussion
grew out of matters connected with their re
' Spectiye LodgesT -- - The - - cl ergyiri - a tol d—the
ilawyer.he_had..no luflueuce,_and the lawyer
called --(l'=tl liar !" The clergyman
retorted by calling the lawyer "a - pettilbging
Scoundrel ' - It was some time before quiet
was restored.
,
A discussion then arose in reference 'to the
imminent danger of an exposure of the proceed
ings of the Council. It was declared that if
its proceedings - were made pul.die, Many of the
members would-tie obliged to vote in accor l
dance • with their old political affinities to wafd
off suspicion. The opinion was - stated and
generally concurred in, that IfiGt.En will have
15,000 majority in the, State. Time rea:.on
given for this was that the Whig party through
out the State is disorganized, and that nearly
all the Democrats who have joined the Lodges,
finding it incumbent upon them.in complianCe
with their oaths to vote for PoLLocii, have
Withdrawn.
- On motion it was
Rtsoi.vcd, That every member, before he can
obtain the new signs and password, make tiai/z
that he will support the ticket which has been
adopted by the State Council, whether he be
'Whig. Native, or Democrat ;.and it *as
ite.w,/1/, That all• members , refusing to do
so should be expelled.
•I The G,•and Council, by general consent, ac
knowledged the' correctness of the statements
published in the Pe 11 Wig Ivanhin in reo-ard to
workingthe of the Older. The Pie:Zeta of
the CounciCstated, that from information re
ceived, the exposure of the Grand Council of
the United States, was made through the folly
of a member from Indianapolis, la., who had
been to New York to attend the National Con
vention of the Order, and on-his way home, in
passing through Philadelphia, lie gut intoxica
ted, and while in that state, the doctimcnts
were stolen from him by some minion or the
Penns' zripn.
It teat stated by a large dumber of delegates
in the Council that if die Pennsglvaniav gut
hold'of and published the proceedings of this
Convention, the whole Order throughout the
State would he destroyed.
The absurd statement was made in Council
that the Shooting Gallery at.the corner of Sev
enth and Chestnut was filled day and night by
Deniocra.ts practicing the science. .
The proceedings of the. -Council throughout,
were characterised by the most violent and
harsh language. it was - nothing but cronina
don and recrimination. The most of the bad
blood evinced grew out of discussions in re=
gard to voting for local officers in the different
counties. A number of the members of the
Council left in disgust, and quite a large num
ber of the Delegates left for _home, before the
business of the Council was halt finished.
-The State Couucil made overtures to Mr.
Bradford, the Native Amei lean candidate for
Governor, to withdraw, and they would give
him the succession after the expiration of Pol
lock's term. Mr. Bradt:old declined the prop
osition.
It requires an initiative fee of one dollar to
be admitted into the Order. The Second De
gree cannot he given until the mein ber has
belon g ed to the Order three weeks. Ile is
therefore not informed of the name of the Older
until the expiration of that, time.
It was ordered that every subordinate Omn
i oil must pay live dollars to tie State Council—
live dollars for the Charter, and am dollars to
the National Council, which is held Au New
