There ate o tier trri!fos who usetibe various
other beginnings to sow order; but we
regard them as so fanciful or palpably emu
lous as to be unworthy the time and place
necessary to give them a respectable notice,
and will pass than in sileuce. It it true,
I however, that in the latter half of the
`eighteenth century, Lodges, or Societies of
mechanics and laborers existed in London,
calling themselves "Amiens and !Towable
Loyal Odd-Fellows •" These met almost
solely fur convivial purposes. But certain
friends of reform opposed to this feature of
the society's character, called a convention
in 1813, and formed the "Independent 'Or
der of Odd-Fellows." This new form ot
the association had as its object the aid of
the poor, the support and care of the
sick, the defrayal of burial capewee,
and the relief of the widows and orphans of
its members. Here they incorporated into
the system the principle which wasdestined
to give them perpetuity. Benellmeee as

is that whole congregations are disbanded
and die out entirely. Thus it is that some
associations have passed away. But to the
historian, the most forcible illustration of an
} association practically ignoring the principle
of christian charity, is Arend in the case of
the Mohammedan religion. Islamism start
(id out With as fair prospects of success as
any organization, religious or otherwise, that
has ever figured on the page of history.
Islam means full submission to God. What

himself. To say the least of it this l';11$
fair presentation to the world as it then
stood. On their first promulgation, the
doctrines of Mohammed spread with mim
ing rapidity. But, though every Moslem
MLA compelled to give the fortieth part of
his ;mottle to support the poor yet charity
was not one of the main planks in their re
ligious platform. And no sooner had they
gained, by moral suasion and the merit of
their doctrines, '-.:llllbient power to levy :111
army, than they gave the lie to all protimsien
of charity by the forcible propagalion of
their religion in nomerous betties. It is in
deed true that by the power of the sword
their religion was fumed upon many nations
of the world. But as hOOll as that power
ceased to lie exerted, their influence begun
to waive even among those notions where ,
that religion had prevailed. A n d gliding a
little at first, it coon began to precipitate
headlong, 11'161 toot flat: Moslem iulluenet

provioeus. A tuts- tribes in South Africa
have haleed, been converted to Mohernmed
turista durin g late years. But their success
even here arises • from two causes which
coincide with the very idea we desire to Con
vey. First, The natives embrace this relig
ion because they are ignorant of any other;
Second, flecawe the Moslems themselves
have been touched by the charity of the
christian religion and make that characteris
tic more promineutthan ever before.
Efforts have been made of late years to
rouse the spirit of the Fa. a;en among the
Mehummedans renew the bloody onset' '
against Christianity, but the more intelligent
and wealthy have become so much imbued
with the charity of the christian church,
that they have ceen tbs.! the ,word is not the

Learn then, that as you practice true char
ity among yourselves and towards others,
you will increase and be propagated. As
you neglect it, OW will forsake you, you
will be divided among yours Aves, and your
prestige among men will be lost. The moral
WIN of the age is so highly cultivated, that
all may judge for themselves. You must
stand upon the merit of your actions. Aud
when public opinion judges your institution
to be morally deficient men will withdraw
their influence trout it. 3, God will be with
you just in proportion as you carry into prac
tice the priveiples of true cristion charity.—

Nor would this be foreign to the ezample
of the savior himself For Isis miracles
wmught upon the body, were to be but in
troductory to the conflating of blessings
upon the soul. Ile raised the widow's son
to make the widow and her friends believers
in himself, ars well as real worshippers of
the true and lit ing tod. lle woke the
davghter of Julius to show to her father
and his Roden that the power of life and
death resided in himself and to open up
the way for their asking still more, blessing.
lie called forth a Laiarus from hie grave to
show to his sisters and their friends that he
had the power of resurrection and was the
source of all blessing in death as well as Isla.
And there was not one instance era miracle
performed upon the body, by which some
one was not led to believe, and open the way
for receiving blushing for the soul.
Thus when you go to watch by the Led
;-id of a sinking brother, to sullen Isis
sow ft while he lingers—to lift his trembling
form and touch his teemed lips with the
cooling draught, it is your privilege in 11
peculiar sense to instil the gentle teachings
of the meek and lowly Jesus. And when
you close hie sightless eyes in death, aid
straighten out his body and dress it fur the
grave, it is yours to point the widow and the
orphan to that God who tempers the wind
to the shorn Inusb and will not suffer us to
be tried above that we are a b le t o bear.
4, But in comelunion—the church live..
upon piety— the government lives upon the
intelligence of her people and their obsoli•
ence to law—and associations live upon prin.
aide. What the food is to the body—what
thought is to the eual —what piety is to the
church—what law is to the government—
such is ' , Huila: to an association like y our
own. Let net that principle, as those of
the politician too often arc, be but a pack
horn to carry you into power, and to be
discarded whenever you have accomplished
that journey. But once the principles are
chosen. let the association stand or fall by
the principles. We have shown you that
the principle of charity is immortal. It will
not only be operative in time. It will abide
throughout all ctereity.
