eral instances are recorded ih which lives
have been lost, or severe andpermanent bod
ily injury inflicted, by the explosion of lamps
From this practice. The following; enplanation
of the causes producing such explosions are
well worth heeding':
Ist. The oil in the lamp is generally low

2d. The gas is very inflammable, and will
always explode when ignited.
3d. In blowing the blaze'down : it is liable
to ignite the gas.
WriosE Ox is Gottem—Robuck, the redoubt
able British'claampion of Jeff.' Davis, in a re
cent discussion in the English Parliment on
the condition of Ireland, declared that the
differences existing betweeen the Fenian par
ty and the British Government were so vital
that nothing can settle it but the sword. "It
means rebellion," exclaimed, ,the nonerable
M.P., "it means seperation from England,"
and so long as he had a vote he was prepared
to put them (the Fenians] , down, "with the
sword, if it be necessary." rebellion in
Ireland is quite a different thing to the Hon.
Mr. Roebuck from rebellion in'America which
he regards with so•much complacency'as an

The following gesolutions were unanimously
passed at a regale.r cornranvicatiort of Eula-
Ha Lodge, held Alpril
Whereas, The President of the United
States has' been cruelly assassinated, this
Lodge of Master Masons, therefore feels it to
be a duty which it owes to itself, to the great
brotherhood to which it belongs, and to the
sentiments of humanity which it inculcates,
to formally declare its detestation or the great
crime and mingle its expressions of li' , lartfelt
sorrow with the people throughout the n aL
tion. And, - I
,
Whereas, A Mason is "taught to be a penes- 1
ble citizen, never to ..be concerned in plots
and conspiracies against the peace and wel
fare of the nation, nor to behave himself un
dutifully to inferior magistrates, but is, to
conform to every lawful authority, to uphold
on every i occasion the interests of the earn
inanity, and zealously prcimete the prosper
ity of his own country," Therefore,
R.esolved, That inithe murder of Abrilram
Liu' coin, Presidentdsf the United,Statss, we
recognize a. foul blow against humanity, a
crime disgraceful to the age, war,against - the
institutions of our country, and the wicked
momentary triumph of violence against law,
order and right.
, Resolved, That this Lodge, having no ran
ity with political faiths or systems, standing
as it were by the grave of the martyred
Chief Magistrate, can butAeplore the loss of
Abraham Lincoln :at the moment when eon
,' curring Circumstances united to invest him
with the power to gratifij his disposition' of
restoring unity, peace and fraternity through
out the Republic.
Resolved; That the kindly, forgiving. con/
ciliating, disposition manifested by Abraham
Lincoln, endears his name and : memory-/to
all future time, and nowhere can they be
more fittingly enshrined than within th/e tem
ples of our Orde4, devoted as it is , to / the in
culbation of Liberty, Brotherly 'L Ve and
,
Charity.
.Resolved, That in token of our appreciation
of the.personal worth and distudguished po
sition of our late President, as/well as a fee
