A MASONIC APPEAL.
All the Brotherhood In the Vuited
states Conjured to Renew the
Bonds of 'Union.
The Silt Grand Offleeri of the Grand Lodge
of Free and Aeoented Masons of Pennsylvania,
and the Masonic jurisdiction therennto be
longing—viz : Grand Master, Deputy Grand
Master, Senior and Junior Grand Warden,
Grand Treasurer and Grand Secretary—have
addressed a letter to the Freemasons of the
United States, urgently calling on them, one
and all, to unite now, at the close of a long
and terrible conteet, to Carry out the princi-
Plea of order, brotherly love and charity, to
which the Order is consecrated. This docu
ment we here subjoin :
2b the Freemasons of the'United Stales:
The deplorable contest in our country, which
for tke past four years has separated States
and people, inaugurated and carried on to de
atroy the Federal Union of the United States,
is now ended. History , enthroned in the ma
jesty of a coming judgment, with the calm
ness of retrospect, and the impartiality of
truth, will determine on whom the responsi
bility rests of this crime against representa
tive government. It will award to sections
and individuals their merited condemnation.
The oracles of Truth and Justice, unimpaired
by the, passions and prejudices of men, will
Proclaim a final and unalterable decree. Let
us then leave to these attributes of Om
niscience their divine duties. The civil war is
closed. Efforts of patriots and statesmen
must now be directed to the restoration of
- unity and concord among the
. people who so
lately were in hostile array against each other.
The things that are behind must no longer
occupy our thought, since they excite discord
and embittered association. The future must
engage all our energies. The mighty task of
constituting reconciliation, is the duty now
imposed upon us. The i%iialuial of the Wye.
pant of peace and love, must be by rebaptism
with the spirit of charity in the waters of
Methe.
_
Brethren of the Order of Freemasons, we
have our duties to perform. Masons who wor•
ship in the temple dedicated to a common fra
ternity, our masonic minds and hearts have
been taught those sublime lessons there only
imparted.
As our ancient and honorable Order has
never taken part "in Conspiracies against go
vernment," since this is forbidden, its mem
bers must be true to the teachings of the craft.
We, everywhere throughout this land, must
be the first to show by our conduct and con-
versation, by our example and our precepts
among men, that there is vital vigor in the
virtues of Freemasonry. We are a united.
band, free and accepted by and between our
selves. Discord and enmity—the evil passions,
revenge, distrust, hatred and malice, never
Set have entered the Masonic temple. If our
faith is strong in the landmarks, if we have
known of the doctrine that it liveth and
abideth among es, in all times, in all perils, in
every commotion ; in strife and war, let us
now demonstrate that we hold it as delivered
to us by the fathers. Our Order is consecrated
to unity, brotherly love, charity. To enlighten
mankind has been our mission since the earli
est Of ages. Before Christianity the temple of
the emit was open. Its teachers were calling
before the days of the patriarchs, to man
kind to COnlo and receive the light. That
light has never yet gone out. The Jew,
before the altar on the sacred mount—the
Tarsee, in his adoration of the sun—the
Mussnlman, bowing to the east, in prayer—the
Greek, before the shrine of his divinity—the
-Christian, in devout faith at the foot of the
cross, alike, in the days of their generation,
}mew and understood the mystic language,
"God said let there be light, and there was
light." Brethren, we also are gathered in our
temple, you assembled in yours,- Masons in
every clime or country, are by adoption and
acceptance in a common fraternity one,
united, and inseparable. There can be neither
schism, separation nor rebellion within or
among us. - The white apron of repentance
and innocence is an emblem we all compre
hend. It teaches us that the entrance into
the holy of holies can be had but in subordina
tion to the fundamental principles of the
order. It admonishes us at all times, under
all circumstances, to renounce every act or
deed, and the motives for either, which can
destroy unity, harmony and charity.
Each member of our fraternity in the seve
ral Grand Lodge jurisdictions of the United
'States, is directly appealed to in his indi
vidual masonic character, to maintain, in all
their integrity, the principles of the order.
It is his solemn duty. Obligations once as
sumed, must ever be binding in all their force,
en the conscience of every Mason. We can
not, if we would, surrender or silence them.
They unite the soul to the Throne of Jehovah,
and are as eternal as His laws.
We invoke the serious consideration of the
craft to the most weighty responsibility to
which reference imade.
These obligations impose on lifasoriA and
jurisdictions the recognition of those rights
which are thus common to each and all, and
constitute the life, power and virtue of the
Masonic relations.
We believe it to be the duty of Freemasons
to regard the craft in the jurisdiction of the
States of the South, as brethren. It is theirs
to -recognize the power Of this universal star
sonic landmark. Thus the reunion of fraternal
association can be established, and this ex
ample before the people will be a demonstra
tion of the living power of our venerable insti
tution.
Brethren of the Sunny South, we believe
sour faith and sincerity in the landmarks are
equal to ours. We claim no right to sit in
judgment over your fidelity or your obedience
to the landmarks—or your devotion to their
perpetuity. We recall from the past four
years neither witness nor testimony. The
Light in the Masonic Temple casts no shadow.
It is ever at the meridian when we look into
each other's hearts, and take each other's
hands in brotherly love. But while we are all
Masons we are also fellow-countrymen. We
are citizens of States whose prosperity is in
dissolubly connected with this Union. We are
citizens of States where individual and Collec
tive happiness and welfare can be beat main
tained, encouraged and secured by the union
of these States, as our fathers and your fathers
made it by that great compact, the Constitu
tion. Let US invoke your cordial and unre
served acknowledgment of this truth. Let us
invoke your aid to cement together the people
of the States, "without any reservation or
self-evasion of mind whatever." Let us, and
you,. come together in unity, in harmony,
charity and brotherly love, as Masons, labor..
lug for the common benefit of our fellow-citi
zens and mankind.
The outside world, our brethren round the
globe, every peoples have had their anxious
attention directed to this Union of States, in
the land of the setting Sun. The problem of
free government has been closely observed in
its practical working for the past half cen
tury. They know, up and down in this land,
the craftsmen are dwelling in the mystical
organization of the Order. The world and
our craft, are asking in every known tongue,
has Masonry no power to heal the wounds of
the commonwealth. flas Masonry no power
to bind up . that which is broken, to pour in oil
and wine into the torn and lacerated hearts
of citizens of that great nation of the West.
Have Masonic teachings lost their power]
Are the ears deaf that the people cannot
bear the joyous sounds of unity and peace, con
cord, charity and brotherly love, which come
out of the Masonic temple, as the rays of the
morning out of the chambers of the sunrisel
Brethren, let us show mankind the power
and the truth of Masonic landmarks. Let us
gird our loins with strength, take the symbol
of love and - unity in our hands, put on our feet
the sandals of good will imbue our hearts with
earnestness and faith then will all the people
- wonder and rejoice, then will the glad tidings
-of great Joy fill the Masonic world. Then
will we throw away the iron tools of the out
side craft of men, and again take up those
symbolic emblems, by which foundation
stones of union are securely laid.
We owe our country and the world the duty
Of our example. Let us make it manifest.
Come among us, we 'will go among you. Your
temple is our temple; your masonry our
masonry; - whither masonic teachings bid us
go, let us go together. Brethren, we invite
you, by the great glory of our indestructible
Order, by the undying light which illumines
our pathway to and from the communion of
the craft, by your precept and example, and
• efforts among your > fellow-countrymen, to
begin the great work of reconciliation.
Then, in the future of this great nation, the
Holm of the whispering waves of the Pacific,
uniting with the roar or the Atlantic, will pro
claim, "Mercy and truth are met together,
righteousness and peace have kissed each.
other." Men of America, behold and listen!
We officers of the Grand Lodge of Freemasons
Of we State of Pennsylvania, have felt it our
peculiar privilege thus to address the craft in
their several jurisdictions, North, South, East,
and West, of this - Union. We do this in the
true spirit of freemasonry. .IVe appeal only to
Masons by the immemorial language used
among them everywhere. There is no other
motive but charity, unity, brotherly love,
which actuates us. With politics we have
nothing to do. We are Masons, and as Masons
we invoke your ear to listen, and your hearts
to act. Brethren, by the love and light, hope
and faith which belong to our Order, as from
the beginning of time, we salute you.
Maythe great Architect of Heaven and Earth
so level and square our minds and hearts, that
by. our motives and actions, "men may know
.that Thou_, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the
Most Hig h over all the Barth."
The undersigned have been induced to make
this commmucation to the members of the
Order in the United States, trusting that the
purity of their purpose will be acknowledged
and appreciated. Let the good of Masonry be
extended and established, and mankind be led
to believe that the virtues of this venerable
Order yet exist in the potency of their prime-
Val Strength, Wisdom and Beauty.
We salute you, as bound with us, in the
4ionds of fraternal charity and love.

MEETING IN THE EIGHTH WARD. -A
large and enthusiastic meeting of the Union
Citizens of the Eighth ward, was held last
evening, at the Horticultural Mill, at Broad
and Walnut streets.
Hon. Henry C. Carey was called to the chair,
on taking which he delivered the following :
When last, my friends, we met in this hail,
the country Wag engaged in a war unparal
leled in its dimensions, whose issue still re
mained in doubt. But a single year has since
elapsed, and now to war has succeeded peace
the meet profound, and the then endangere4
Union now stands assured against the world.
For this great change we are indebted to the
prudence and ability of 3.1 r. Lincoln and his
Cabinet, and the genius of our military leaders.
How different the present condition of the
country to that of Mr. Buchanan's administra
tion. Then the treasury was bankrupt; scarce-
ly a hundred million dollars could have been
raised ; but for four years we have furnished
nearly a thousand millions each year and this
when British journals were denouncing our
securities as worthless.
Of all the charges recorded in the world's
history this is, as I think, the most remark
able. To what, my friends, has it been duet
To the one great fact that when the Chicago
Convention had nominated Mr. .LineOln it
pined him onaplatform whose most important
plank was found in pledges of protection to
the American farmer, protection to the Ame
rican mechanic, protection to the American
miner, protection to the American laborer,
protection to the - wives and daughters of Ame
rican men—protection of all American inte
rests against the cheap-labor system, by means
of which Britain so long has sought to rule the
world and brutify the people.
These pledges have been nobly redeemed,
and thus has that demand for labor been cre
ated which created our extraordinary pros
perity to which we are indebted for the money
to carry on the war, which has resulted in the
vindication of free institutions and the honor
of the flag. litany years since I said, and
printed, that the British free-trade system, as
established by the Democratic pro-slavery
tariff of 1546, was costing , us not less than three
thousand millions of dollars a year. Under
the national system, rednaugurated under a
Republican Administration, most of that labor
is saved ; and hence it is that, notwithstand
ing all the vast expenditures of the past four
years, the country is greatly richer than. it had
ever been before,
The whole future of the country is depend
ent on the readoption of a system which will
give the fullest protection to the working,
man. To this the candidate of the Union par
ty for the mayoralty staudg fully committed.
Among the cities of the Union, Philadelphia
now stands pre-eminent as regards .efforts in
the past four years for maintenance of the
Union. Let us, my friends, now go ahead in
the same direction, proving by our votes for
city and county onicerq, and for the gallant
soldiers on the State ticket, that in time of
peace we are determined to retain the proud
position the war has given us.
To the Republican party yon have stood in
dehted for_proteCtiOn, To it, and it alone, can
you look fora. its continuance. By . protecting
It and its representatives, you are, in fact, pro
tecting yourselves. In common with most of
you, my friends, I have been disposed ocea
clonally to grumble, but looking back over the
eventful years of the war, find myself now dis
posed to assert the belief that in no country
of the world Could halt a dozen men have been
round to do so well the great work as has been
done by those who composed Mr_ Lincoln's Ad
ministration, and now surround his honored
and patriotic successor.
The remarks of Mr. Carey were frequently
interrupted by applause.
Addresses were also delivered by Messrs. G.
A. Grow, Wm. A. Rawie, and Lorin Blodget,
after which the meeting adjourned.
GREAT FAIR AT THE ACADEMY OF MlT
sm.—The fair to commence at the Academy of
Music on the 23d inst., for the purpose of rais
ing a building and endowment fund for the
Soldiers' and Sailors' Home,bids very fair to
be second Only to that held in Logan square,
in June, 1561. The Home is already te.mpora•
rily established, by consent of City Councils,
in the building at the corner of Race and
Crown streets. This property was purchased
Several years since by the city authorities for
public school purposes. The Soldiers' Home
emanated from the Coopershop Volunteer Re
freshment Committee. A charter for the in
stitution was supervised by the Ron. Oswald.
Thompson, President Judge of the Court of
Common Pleas, in the latter part of the year
1851, or early in 1852.
At a later period the home was furnished
and duly inaugurated. Subsequently, a large
number of ladies and gentlemen, who had
been, from the earliest dawn of the causeless
rebellion, k assiduous and self-saerifleing in
their efforts - to meet all emergencies that
would necessarily arise, proposed to assist the
Cooper-shop managers in making the home a
permanentinstitution. After several confe.
renees on this subject a re-organization was
effected, and thus the Soldiers' and Sailors]
Dome stands at present before the public.
It is the intention of the managers to make
the Home a national institution, and to effect
this desirable object they have prepared a pro
gramme that Minna help drawing tens of
thousands of -people to the Academy of Music,
not only from our own State, but from other
States of our glorious Union. It is not an im
probable thing that articles will be sent to the
fair from States keeently in rebellion against
the constituted authorities of the National
Government ; thus will be forged another link
in the grand chain of patriotism that will bind
the Northern and Southern sections in the
stronger bonds Of Union. . The proposed fair
will be conducted on the plan of the groat
sanitary demonstration that occurred sixteen
months ago. Among the names of the ladies
and gentlemen who have charge of the affair
we notice those Of peraons who have been, to
our personal knowledge, unremitting in their
attention to the sick and wounded soldiers at
all hours, in all seasons, from the earliest days
of the rebellion. Night and day did these
nohla.hearted ladies watch with maternal care
and tender Solicitude over the fevered mid
wounded soldiers who had been brought to
this city before the National Government had
made permanent arrangements for their re
ception. The Government knew that the pros
trate soldiers would not be from home in the
city of Philadelphia.
Now that the war has ceased, and the shim-
Meting rays of peace have reached alino6t un
clouded splendor, more time can be spared,
and a larger number of people can employ
themselves in completing the grand and
graphic picture, by the erection of a splendid
commodious home for the comfort and happi
ness of the maimed soldiers and sailors of our
great and glorious COUlltry.

A KICOOR-DOSSIi .O.IIGIIMENT.—A scene
occurred on Moyamensing avenue, on Wednes
day evening, worthy of public record. Several
persons were standing in conversation rela
tive to the coming election. The odds were
in favor of the Union ticket three to one. A
person, comilarativelq S stranger offered his
advice gratuitously, and he mot with an unex
pected reward. He desired to make converts
for Mr. Daniel M. Fox.
A one-armed soldier standing in the crowd
saidto him, " you have a hard cheek to ask a
soldier to vote for such a candidate. Why, that
man is a Copperhead."
"You are mistaken, he is a Democrat," re
plied the stranger.
"He may call himself a Democrat, just like
Jeff Davis, but that does not make him one,"
replied the soldier.
The argument now became rather interest
ing. The stranger was permitted totalk pret
ty freely, but found it up-hill work to make a
conversion.
Finally , the soldier replied : " Look here,
my friend, you'd vote for Jeff Davis if he was
on the Democratic ticket, how can you ex
pect a true-blue to vote tor a Copperhead. sym
pathizer 1 Braver and more noblunen have
been shot down in the rebel ranks than, your
candidate. Besides this, didn't your candi
date insult the soldiersl Didn't he say that
the whole community is demoralized since
the soldiers came back from the war! Didn't
he say this before the convention that nomi
nated himl What's the use of trying to get
soldiers to vote for such a man! It can't be
done!"
. .
"But he's in favor of the eight-hour system
of labor; how do ye like that?" said the sharp
er, dodging the question.
" Soldiers don't light by the hour; they fight
whenever they can get a chance, and when I
choose to work at my trade I'll work just as
long as it suits me; what's the Mayor got to
do with that? Now, you better leave," re
sponded the soldier, "or you might get your
copperhead flattened out."
Warm words ensued, and presently the
soldier knocked the stranger down. The lat
ter pulled out a pistol, but it was taken away
from him before lie bad time to use it. It was
captured by the Soldier, and, upon examina
tion, 'was found to be fully loaded. The
stranger was arrested, and bound over to be
of future good behavior and to keep the peace.
The soldier kept the other piece, and did not
appear against the prisoner.

being an extraordinary advance of twenty per
cent. There may be some reason for this ad
vance besides the cupidity of the dealers, who
have an organization, and can do pretty much
as they please without consulting the interests
or the pockets of the consumers. The most
effectual way to meet the crisis is for the con
sumer to purchase twenty per cent. less of
the article than usual. Milk, in its pure state,
rich with cream, can be purchased at three
cents per quart in quantities at the dairies.
The cost of transportation on the railroads
can be more than made up by the introduction
of water, which ie need to a more or less ex
tent. Thus it will be seen that on and after
next Monday, the milkmen, not the farmers,
will realize a clear profit of seven cents per
quart. It should be borne in mind that milk
at the present time is not a very healthy arti
cle of diet, as there seems to be a general ten
dency to disease among cattle in this country
as well as in -Europe.

THE LAUNCH THE U. S. FRIGATE
NEsnAmony.—This magnificent war vessel, of
which we published a full description in The
'teas a few days since, was launched yester
day at the Philadelphia navy yard. Cards of
invitation bad been sent out, and before noon
there was a large crowd present. Eifteen hun
dred invited guests were on the vessel, and a
large number were in the yard and other
places where a view might be obtained. At
ten minutes after two all was reaily, and at
fifteen minutes after two the word was given.
Without the least accident the vessel glided
down the ways, and, as she entered the ele
ment in which she is destined to move, the
traditional bottle of wine was broken over
her bows by Miss Hull, daughter of Commo
dore Hull of the navy yard, who, at the same
time, pronounced the name which the vessel
is hereafter to bear. A salute was also fired
at the same time. The launch was under the
superintendence of Naval Constructor Hans
com, assisted by Master Carpenter George
Much.

sunset on Wednesday evening, and will con
tinue for seven days. AS it commemorates
tb eir d eliveranee from a servitude forced upon
them by a conquering people, the occasion is
one of great joy. Inthe Hebrew language it is
termed saket, or booths, and green boughs are
suspended in the synagogues and dwellings, to
cons aythe idea of their former dwelling in
booths. On the first and last days the people
assemble in their places of worship and re
turn thanks, upon which occasion the ser

joyment.

kinds of diseases, to keep within doors. The
temperature, as indicated by the mercury in
the shade, at nobn, was fifty-eight degrees.

the Slat Pennsylvania Regiment, was guilty of the
charges.

DR. S. W. BECKWITH'S
(ForstratLY PROF. C. H. BOLLE9I)6
ELECTRICAL INSTITUTE,
No. 1220 WALNUT Street,
For the Treatment of Acute and Chronic
Electrical investigation has Tirol/0d that the hu.
man 'WII3 acts on the principal of the galvanic bat
tery. The brain, mucous and serous membranes,
the skin, tissues, and fluids constitute the negative
and positive forces. Every action, whether mental
or physical, is the result of these antagonistic forces.
Digestion, respiration, circulation, secretion and
excretion are due solely
to Electricals influence.
There is a polar action established througliont the
nervous system which connects with every part of
the body, establishing and preserving a proper
balance of the electrical element, which constitutes
health, and a disturbance of which causes disease.
There are strictly but two conditions of disease—
one of inflammation, or pasitive; the other weak,
debilitated, negative; and as Electricity contains
these two conditions in the action of the positive
and negative currents, all we have to dt , Is to neu
tralize the disease and restore proper healthy action.
We do not wish to convey the impression that we
cure all diseases in all conditions. We Cannot cure
consumption after the lungs arc all destroyed; yet
we do assert, and are prepared to practically demon
strate, that hundreds of cases of almost every form
of chronic diseases, pronounced incurable by tile
best medical practitioners of the country, have been
radically CORED, some of them in an incredibly
short time, by Our Electrical treatment. Its great
superiority over other practice in the cure of dis
ease is also attested in the fact that, within the past
dye years, over fourfun thousand patients have
been treated at this office, suffering from alniost
every form and condition of disease common to
humanity, and in nearly all cases a benefit or per
fect cure has been effected. Palsy, deafness, blind
.
nese, rheumatism, elyspellgia, cancer, and all the
old knotty diseases that are a physician's curse, as
it proves his inability to eradicate, are by our scien
tific method comparatively easy of cure. Specimens
Of tumors of large growth extracted by means of
Electricity alone, without pain, without the nil of
the knife, ligatures, or any other means, may be
seen at our office by those interested. Therefore,
with these FACTS to prove our theory and treat
ment of dlseafie, we are WEllnK to undertake any of
the following diseases, with every hope and pros
pect of success, with very many others not here
enumerated:
1. Diseases- 0/ the Brain. and Nerrocata SUM,
Epilepsy, Chorea, or St. Vitus , Dance, Paralysis
alemplegial, Neuralgia, Hysteria, Nervousness,
Palpitation of the Heart, Lockjaw. etc.
2. Organs and Tissues connected with the Diges
live System.—Sore Throat, Dyspepsia, Diarrhoea,
Dysentery Obstinate Constipation, Haimorrhoides,
or Piles, Bilious Flatulent, and Painter's Collo, and
all affections of the Liver and Spleen.
3. Respiratory Orpans.—Catarrh, Cough, Irian
enza, Asthma (When not caused by organic disease
of the heart), Bronchitis, Pleurisy, Pleurodynia, or
Rheumatism of the Chest, Consumption in the early
stages.
4. FibrouS and Muscular System. —Rheumatism,
Gout, Lumbago, Stiff Neck, Spinal Curvature, Hip
Diseases, Cancers, Tumors.
5. Urinary and Genital Organs.—Grayel, Diabetes,
and Kidney Complaints,lmpotence, and Seminal
Weakness. The latter complaints never fail to yield
rapidly to this treatment.
6. Diseases Peculiar to Females. —Morns Com
plaints,. involving a mai-position, as Prolapsus, An
tracers/on, Retroversion, Inflammation, Ulcera
tion, and various other 'affections of the Womb and
Ovaries, Painful, Suppressed, Scanty, of Profile°
Menstruation, Lencorrhizea.
TO LADIES we can recomend this treatment as
one of UNVARIED SUCCESS. Almost innume
rable cases leave come under treatment at our office
who can testify to this fact. Sirs. BECKWITH has
entire charge of the Ladies' Department, and all
delicacy will be used towards those who entrust
themselves to her care. In female diseases as men

she has had a large enrriener, and can confidently

'l'o THE .LThe treatment is mild

sation whatever. Our professional intercourse with
the afflicted will ever be characterized by perfect
candor and honesty - , and those whose complaints
are incurable, or do not admit of amelioration,
will be frankly told 60 and Act accepted for treat

Or how long you may have suffered, or how much,
or what course of treatment yon may have been
Subjected to, or what disappoint - Meats you may
