YORK, Thursday', t concert, last night, in the Assembly-roome-, Was at- Need by the Royal party, and the st rugg l e f ee p l aces was of ost : andtJating description. The tumult was for a time • St°ll. Iv but still very amusing. The stevvarda were mo called upon to restore or d er, b ut al l their efforts ; 1 7° of little avail during the gre , lter ortion of the first par m t. 11 41 3' half an hour before the concert p commenced, the roo .113 crowded to excess, and w h en t h e Duchess of Kent and fue Princess Victoria arrived, they were compelled to remain • short time in the ante-room until a passage could be ned for them, as every spot or room was occupied. The i:icert commenced et eight o'clock, and as company continued Ko rea in till nine, the ., confusion that resulted from Ruth an vf may b e easily imagine d . B etween ;.co end three e ve u s!nd persons were present. They wen not all, how flier, m. the concert-room, for several hundreds had to eenteht 16, 44 eaves in, the supper-room s a dj o i n i ng. The rehire in kll-• l ower end of the room w as , f or a time, terrific, and I I . 4 i ° ! of one instance of a man (a medical gentleman. tom) f Qr , tl "tg from the dreadful heat and exertion ;—whet, there e,.; Must it have been for the ladies, whe tbmposed the z' r e s t',r portion of the audience. The squeezing y 4p "ltin experienced was by no means of the tendere s t and Must ~f : t c cable kind, and a number of elegant dresses bore sad tokens ~ a tremendous conflict. For fully an hour stewards' wands constables' staves were vainly brandished, f or the un-nee-1- 47 s truggle still continued. One gentleman from the g a ll er y :tic a sp eec h f u ll o f pathetic appeals to the gallantry of his l , and vowed that the ladies should of all things be accoran tr dated with seats ; hut the speech concluded, the gallant bra ti't mana g ed to stick to his own. Another gentleman, who was /4 8 Y, was said to be carrying his gallant disposition a leetle tot) , o and he expelled tt et armis, Just as this bad been mplistaed I found an old gentleman of at least 14 stone ei g h t gentleman an d and and with a tremendously red face, spreWling by my side, had fallen in endeavouring to obtain a better veiw. A N. - I lady, who was with hi m , w as vainly endeavouring to i,7 g. him ; but without assistance he might have lain till morn i:tnhHe w as no sooner on hi s legs, however., than he essay e d iliVer attempt, an d succeeded in getting upon a form, cling ieerously round a pillar that was in front, to genre him place. His portly body was an annoyance to a number t e . adios who were behind him, and there was an immediate to him to come dow - a. But the old " climbing boy" stuck t oot "Is post, and wac; " deaf as a post" too. Nothing- could a te e hint. He was hollow in the minority, but he declared r iniaedly he wouldn't resign. To prevent further confu mi'‘ki. a. matter of prudence, he was suffered to remain. txtt this time the concert was going on. Something like - " e t was last restored, and the performance proceeded 4i , t at 'flout further interruption. It is at the evening concerts th at Grisi, Lablache, and Rubini have full opportunity for o,,ti,isplay of their powers. The highly-finished singing of the s- especially, in a great deg ree falls short of e ff ec t i n vast space of the Minster. His pian o t ones are l ost, ex ,,pt to t h ose who are pretty near to him, but in the concert 01 every note is distinctly heard. Grisi, too, seems to be 4) , at home when she gets among her accustomed music ; last night, she seemed resolved to show to the audience 11 ; 114 she was capa bl e o f d o i ng. I have never heard her to p,? 1 :„C advantarr e • In the terzetto (Carolina, Elisetta, and Matrimonio Segretto and in the celebrated ea siteint in Gazza Ladra, "Di P lacer , „ she sang exqui thr!, and, was most rapturously appl au d e d.

ORANGE LODGES. which every Orangeman is at home in the farthest parts of the world.' The system of signs and pass-words adopted by the Orange Institution in Ireland, on its revival, 15th September, 1828, were framed by the Deputy Grand Se cretary of England, and are now in use in Great Britain. The English Orange Institution originated frorn the Irish ;' and in 1828 the Irish was revived from the English, and the same signs became common to both countries. All members must be ballotted for ; and, with the ex ception of soldiers and sailors (who may be admitted without any charge), are required to pay to the Imperial Lodge for initiation, 3s. each.

Your Committee are, however, of opinion, that the oral and down. mentdrit etiidenee which they have obtained "without re ference to the evidence' taken btforc the Committee on Orange Lodges in Ireland), is amply suftclent to prove the existence of an organized institution pervading Great Britain and her Colonies to an extent never contemplated as possible, and which your Committee consider highly injurious to the discipline of . his Majesty's army, and dan gerous to the peace of his Majesty's subjects. The letter-book of the Loyal Orange Institution com mences only with the year 1808, although Orange lodges were held hi England before that time, by warrants under the Grand Lodge of Dublin, The correspondence with Mr. Verner, of the Grond lodge of Dublin, shows in what manner the eirst Grand ' Lcdacttts established in England. It was formed in Manchester in iBC l #, titidef SattitirA TtlYinf; tgii! ) Of Masten. as grand master, and warrants to hold lodges under the Etigligh lir_litution were then first granted.

NATURE OF TIIE INSTITUTION. The Loyal Orange Institution of Great Britain is un limited as to numbers, and exclusively a Protestant asso ciation I its affairs are directed by a grand master, a grand secretary, a grand treasurer, a deputy grand master, a deputy grand secretary, and deputy grand treasurer, a grand chaplain and deputy grand chaplain, a grand com mittee- and grand officers constituting the Imperial Grand Lodge in London, The Imperial Grand Lodge meets in the nietropolls en the third Thursday in February; on the 4th of June, and at such other times as shall be appointed by the Grand Master, or the Deputy Grand Master. No regulation, resolution, or rule of the Orange Institution, can be at any time rescinded, altered, or amended, without notice of the intention to move, or rescind, alter of amend the same,being given at the regular meeting of the Imperial Grand Lodge previous to such motion i and no eomplaiiit,,proposition, matter,_Or thing ; can be considered or discUSsQd the Grand Ledge until the same shall h ave b een sub mitted to the Grand Committee, unless the Grand Master, or Deputy Grand Master, dr dignitary presiding, shall be of opinion that iiiCdifOriithed tar ihjul joins atis:e from its postponement. The order and attention to allproccedings of the Grand Lodge may be judged of from the fact, that the grand master never enters the lodge or leaves it with out the mace liChitt carried before him) that, during the sittings of the lodge, the mace is always placed on the table before the grand master, and that a member of the lodge, styled a tyler, is stationed outside the door. Every lodge is opened and closed with prayers, the forms of which are printed in the rules and ordinances ofthe institution. The Imperial Grand Lodge is held in Portman-square, London, at the house of Lord Kenyon, the Deputy Grand Master of England and Wales and the Duke of Cum berland, if in England. has always, since he accepted the the office of Grand Master, presided at such meetings. The business is generally prepared some days previous to the meeting by the Grand Committee and the Deputy Grand secretary ) and IS submitted to the meeting of the Grand Lodge in due form, their being a fad of business prepared and placed before the Grand Master or Chair= man, The Itepoti tit 016 Grand Committee and the reso lutions prepared by them are read through in the first in stance) and then put separately ; from the chair such reso lutions 1)0-4 seconded anti put to the assetubly are decided by show of hands, and the resolutions, when a g reed to, have often the initials of the Grand Master affixed to them the fliililites Or the fiftteeediagS of giit4ry meeting_of the Grand Lodge are submitted by the Deputy Grand -Se cretary to the Deputy . Grand Master ; for his examination and coPe rctitlii ; afterwards pfitited, as appaafg by the minutes of a meeting of the Grand Lodge, 27th April, 1821.—Resolved, " That nd etnimlnication, written or printed, of the proceedings of the Grand. Lodge be made, without the special orders of the Grand Lodge, Grand Master, or Deputy Grand Master.' The Deputy °rand Secretary officially signs all those circulars, and copies of them are generally sent to each dignitary of the institution, to the Deputy Grand Masters of distrlctS, and to Masters of separate lodges at home and abroad. The connection between the Orange lodges of Ireland and Great Britain, Is shown by the following rule : Rule 12. The members of the late or present Grand Orange Lodge of Ireland are honorary members of the Impe rial Grand Lodge of Great Britairh " Proxies from masters of lodges add from dignitaries arc admitted to the Grand Lodge meetings." The Grand Committee, consisting of thirty-six members, all of them being grand officers of the institution, are ap pointed by the Imperial Grand Lodge, with power in the Grand Master and Deputy Grand Master to add to their number ; the duty of this committee is to watch dyer the affairs of the institution while the Imperial Grand Lodge is not sitting, to decide on all applications or appeals, and to exercise such other powers, conformable to the rules of the institution, as the exigencies of the different cases com ing before them shall require. Five members are compe tent to act, and six members are annually nominated in the room of six retiring, but who are re-eligible. Lieutenant- Colonel Fairman states that the Grand Committee, when ever the Deputy Grand Secretary finds it necessary to call on them for advice, meets to deliberate and advise, In the same manner as a Cabinet or Privy Council ; all the acts of the Grand Committee arc submitted to the scrutiny and concurrence of the Imperial Grand Lodge at its ensuing meeting. The Deputy Grand Masters of counties, cities, and bo= roughs, sending Members to Parliament s are walked by the Imperial Grand Lodge, The Deputy Grand Masters of districts arc appointed by the Imperial Grand Lodge, on the recommendation of the brethren of the districts. The masters of warrants are annually elected by their re spective members, subject to the approbation of the Impe , real Grand Lodge, where they are represented by the De puty Grand Masters of districts ; and each Deputy Grand Master of a :district convenes a meetinc , of the several masters in his neighbourhood, at which, he presides once every six months, or oftener, if necessary, to discuss the affairs of the Institution. Each master of a lodge is di-. rected, at each regular half-yearly meeting, to present a correct report of the state of his warrant (orlodge) to the Deputy Grand Master of the district, who makes his re. turn to the Imperial Grand Lodge on or before the 24th days of May and December respectively. Besides the dis trict lodges, there are isolated lodges—that is, such lodges as, by reason of .distance or any other circumstances, can not be conveniently attached to any particular district ; and all these may communicate with the nearest Deputy Grand Master of any district : and at each .regular half-yearly dis trict meeting, the Deputy Grand Master shall collect and transmit to the Deputy Grand Treasurer, or to the De puty Grand Secretary of the Imperial Lodge, the returns, with the fees, dues, and all money which they receive on account of the Institution. Every member of the Institu tion, from the rank of Grand Commissioner downwards, must. first belong to some specified lodge. No lodge. can be constituted except by warrant from the Grand Lodge, under the signature of the Grand M as t er , an d w i t h th e seal of the Grand Lodge ; and all members of the Imperial Grand Lodge are members of every other lodge in Great Britain. RULES AND ORDINANCES. Your Committee call the attention of the House to the fact, that the rules and ordinances of the Loyal Orange Institution in Great Britain, and of the Grand Orange Lodge in Ireland, are nearly similar, the rules of the former having been formed from those of the latter ; the objects of both institutions are also nearly analogous ; the same signs and pass-words arc used by the members of .both in stitutions ; members of lodges in Ireland are admitted into lodges of the Loyal Orange Institution in Great Britain, and also. in the colonies, and vice versa ; the systems of England and Ireland were assimilated in 1831 7 2 ; and the new system of lectures, secret signs, and pass-words, have of late years been adopted by all Orangemen in the United Kingdom and in the colonies ; and the ordinances declare that " its whole ifistitution is one neighbourhood, within °A lm: Much controversy has existed abotit the taking of oaths tit did of members. It has been dlstinetly proved to the committed that tstery member admitted prier to I 8 i took a particular oath, as appears by a copy of the Mies arid orders printed in 1800, and delivered in by Mr. Chetwode, aL follows : ; OBLIGATIONS OF AN Othltf4F.MAN.-1, A. 8., do solemnly and sincerely swear, of my own ffes. Will and accord, that I tOll, to the - utmost of my power, support and defend the pre sent King Geerge the Third, his heirs and successors, so long as he and they support the Protestant ascendency, the consti tution and laws of these kingdoms, and that I will ever hold sacred the name of our glorious deliverer William the Third, Prince of Orange ; and Ido further swear, that am not, nor ever was a Roman Catholic or Papist ; hat I was not, am not, nor ever will be, an United Irishman ; and that I never took the oath of secrecy to that or any other treasonable so ciety; and 1 do further swear, in the presence of Almighty God, that I will always conceal, and never will reveal either part or parts of what is now to be privately communicated to time, until I shall be authorised so to do by the proper audio- rides of the Orange institution ; that I will neither write it nor indite it, stamp, stain or engrave it, nor cause it so to be done, on paper, parChment, leaf, bark, stick, stone, or any thing, so that it may be known ; and I do further swear that 1 its not, to my knowledge or belief, been proposed and re jected in, or expelled from any other Orange Lodge ; and that I now bec6::ne an Orangeman without fear, bribery, or ettrraption. " So help me God." titlitdAm'Y OF THE ASSOCIATION. His Royal tilgittrtf4sts the puke of York accepted the office of Grand-master Of !INF Loya: tttOond his Lao o , as appears by Orange Institution in iM ' February, 1821 ; but being ittformod soon afterwards tiltit " the law officers of the Crown and outer eminent lawyers were decidedly of opinion that the Orange Astociation, under the .7.`ath ad minitttorod to their members, was illegal," he withdrew hi self from the association. The Loyal Orange Institution under Lord Kenyon, the I'dplaty Grand Master for England, submitted, in Decem ber, 1821, ri ease for the opinion of Mr. Sergeant John Lens, as to the legality of the Orange Institution, under the alterations proposed to be made in the rules and ordinances, leaving out the Orangemen's oath, but retaining the oaths of alleglatme Ist William and Mary, c. 1. s. 8 ; oath of supremacy, Ist Anne, c. 22, s. 1 ; and of abjuration, 6 Geo, 3, c. 53 retaining also secret signs and pass-words, and ti ttaiti religious ceremonies at the initiation. The Cottaittee refer to the case and opinions thereon, and have to observe that the Orangeman's oath appears to liAve been from that time left out of the rules and ordinan ces ; and certain religious forms, as prescribed in the RITUAL, are staid to have been substituted, and to be now invariably used on initiat;On of members, besides the admi nistration of the oaths of allegiance, supremacy, and abjura tion, which every one must also take. To evade the law the word warrant was sutstituted for lodge ; the original form was to grant a warrant to hold a lodge in a particular house or place ; and, by the altera tion, it was given to the person to hold a lodge ivherescever he pleased, It has been a rule that Irish warrants cannot be acted upon in England, or English warrants acted on in Ireland ; and a new warrant is given in exchange as a matter of course on application. It is particularly deserving of notice, that when the Grand Orange Lodge was discontinued in Ireland, in the years 1825 to 1828, the Loyal Orange Institution of Eng land issued warrants, under which lodges were held there, and the objects and intentions of' the law thus fruStrated. CEREMONIES. The effect of the relic oils ceremonies and forms has been to enforce, with the apparent obligation of an oath, secrecy on the members admitted ; as the deputy grand master of England and Wales, and all the Orangemen examined by the Committee (with one exception) refused to communi cate the secret signs and pass-words of the institution ; and it appears that an exposure of the system by a member would subject him to expulsion. The Committee are, however, of opinion, that the object and effect of these re ligious ceremonies cannot be better comprehended than .by reading the following extracts from the Ritual of the Purple order Iffitati OP TIIE INTELODUCTION TO THE PIMPLE ORDER.— When a brother Is to be introduced, the tyler shall first enter the room, after him two Purplemen, then the two sponsors of the brother, each bearing a purple rod, decorated at its top with orange ribands, and between them the brother himself, carrying in both hands the Bible, with the book of the Orange rules and regulations placed thereon. On his entering the room, a chaplain, or in his absence a brother appointed by the master, shall say— " We have a strong city ; salvation will God appoint for walls and bulwarks. Open ye the gates, that the righteous Dation which keepeth the truth may enter in. Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on Thee ; because he trusteth in Thee. Trust ye in the Lord for ever; for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength."—lsaiah, xxvi. 1, 2,3, 4. The Master shall then say—Friend, what lost thou desire in this meeting of true Orangemen ? The Brother shall answer—Of my own free will and ac cord I desire admission into your loyal Association. Molter—Who will vouch for this friend, that he deserves such adttthitetnent, 2"nthat he is qualified to receive it ac cording to our rules ki.tid ficffulai;CPs ? [Then the Sponsors shall bow to the 1121o i er, and signify the same, each saying —I, N. M., vouch for all tlies !langs.] Master—What do you carry in your hand ? _Brother—The word of God. Master—Under the assurance of the faithful Purplemen, we believe that you have also carried it in your heart. What is that other book ? Brother—The book of our rules and regulations. Master—Under the like assurance, we trust that you have hitherto obeyed them in all lawful matters. There fore, we gladly advance you into this order. Purplemen, bring to me our brother. (He shall then be brought by the two sponsors before the master, the tyler retiring to the door, and the two brothers standing one at each side of the centre of the table.) •. Darlity this the chaplain or brother appointed shall say— In that day shall Tiit DVIANGH of the Lord be beautiful and glo rious ;• and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent for them that are escaped out of Israel. And the Lord will create upon every dwelling placcof Mount Zion, and upon her - assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day, and the shining of a flaming fire by night; for upon all THE - GLORY shall be a defence."—lsaiah, iv. 3, 5. (The brother shall then kneel on his knee, and the master shall invest him with a purple sash and such other decora aoW tit did!) teriVenlonti) Then the chaplain or brother appolttlttl Shall, say---!` I ° - bold the stone which I hare laid before Joshua. Ilittm .4710 stone shall be seven eyes; behold I will engrave the graving' thereof, saith the Lord of Hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day,"—Xuc. iii. 9. (Then the master shall communicate, or cause to be communicated, unto the new Purplemen the signs and passwords of the order.) And the chaplain or brother appointed shall say : " Seek hien that maketh the gevell stars and Orion, and turn eth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night : that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth. The Lord is his name."—Anto y. 53. tie that hath an ear let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the Churches."—Revelations ii. 29. (After which the brethren shall make obeisance to the master, and take their seats ; the certificate of the new Purpleman being first duly , signed and regiKercd.) Signed by order of the Grand Lodge, W. BLENNERHASSETT FAIRAIAN, D. G. S. POWER .OF THE GRAND MASTER. By the laws and ordinances of the Loyal Orange Insti tution, the grand master (f the empire is the chief and su preme head ; his office is permanent and uncontrolled ; no particular functions or duties can be prescribed to him, as his powers and authorities are discrethmary,illimitabk, and absolute ; and to him the honour and welfare of the institu tion are implicitly confided. It is declared in the Report of the Grand Lodge, on February 13th, 1834, " That implicit obedience to the com mands of the grand master, due subordination to the Grand Lodge, and the constituted authorities, and unreserved con formity to the laws and ordinances of the institution are duties imperative on Orange Men. ". His Royal Highness Ernest Augustus Duke of Cum berland is now the grand master of the empire, being - equally the supreme head of the Loyal Orange Institution in Great Britain, and of the Grand Orange Lodge in Dublin ; thus connecting all the Orangemen in the United Kingdom and the colonies. The same powers are vested in the Deputy Grand Master, either by delegation from, or in the ab sence of, the grand master. His Grace the Duke of Gor don is depu'q grand master for Scotland, and Lord Kenyon deputy grand master for England and Wales ; and it is stated by the grand secretary, that Lord Kenyon " is pro bably be Ater informed than any other man with the work ing of. , the institutiou." ORANQE r"ODGES HOW CONSTITUTED. The Orange Lodn,i'are held under warrants 4cau the grand lodge of the institution, which are always signed by the Duke of Cumberland as grand master of the empire ; and are also generally signed by some of the grand officers of the lodge ; but his Royal Highness has also power to grant on his sole respotisilrility, and without any other sig nature, warrants to any person to constitute lodges, within or without the kingdom. The ilinerant warrant granted to Lieutenant-Colonel Fairmar., the deputy grand secre tary, under which he made two tours of inspection in Great Britain ; and the warrant for foreign countries, granted to Edward Nucella, Esq., to hold and to - establish lodges in Malta, Corfu, and other places out of England, as be might think proper, have been laid before the Com mittee, and copies of them are hereafter annexed, in proof of the exercise of the unlimited power of tlle grand master is matters respecting the . spread of Orangeism. B ay L'- . : , : i . : commission, or itinerant warrant, dated tht: 13th of August, in the yam 10% the Duke of ' Cumberland, as imperial grand master, by virtue of the authority Vested ' in him by the code of laws and ordinances of the 30th March, 1826, nominated his trusty, well-beloved, and right wor shipful brother, Lieutenant-Colonel Fairman, master of the metropolitan warrant, member of the grand committee, de puty grand master of London, acting deputy grand trea surer, and deputy grand secretary of the institution, to make fk visitation, or tour of inspection, of the kingdom ; to per brni, settle, and terminate every matter of business in anywl!,(s conOcted with the society or its affairs, or tending to promote its prt;,Terity or welfare ; with a dispensation and power to enable thh: dignitary and officer to communi cate to the brotherhood thb signs and pass-words of the s new system ; to teach the lecturt:. in both Orange and Purple Orders ; to open new lodges, a nd to suspend or eXpel contumacious and refractory member;, subject to a ratification of hiS proceedings by the Grand Lodgt:. Lieutenant-Colonel Fairman, under authority of the .11m perial Grand Master, made two Visitations or tours of in speetion of the kingdom, at the expense of the Grand Lodge, assembling and visiting the lodges at Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Manchester, Sheffield, Bolton, Wigan, Chowbent,.Burnley,.Bolton-le-MOors, Preston, Blackburn, Bury, Middleton, and other places. He visited the esta blished Orange Lodges at those places, and in their neighbour hood ; and exerted himself also to form new lodges where ever there was a prospect of success. In Scotland, at Edin burgh, and other places in the west of Scotland, as' stated elsewhere, he visited the old, and established some new lodges, thereby giving life and activity to Orangeism in that country. Lieutenant-Colonel Fairman had the power and authority of initiating any person When travelling_ in the country, or under certain circumstances, by virtue of the spe cial commission ; and he has often initiated persons at his own house : he granted to private Wilson, of the 6th Dra goons, at Sheffield, a military warrant under that authority in the spring of 1834, which, he said, was the only one he .sver had granted to a 'regiment. os ONSIDLE OBJECT, RELIGIOUS.—REAL 'CHARACTER POLITICAL. The ostensible nbjeet of the institution is to support the Protestant religion anj PrC. testant ascendancy, and to pro tect what they consider the of Protestants. Lord Kenyon declares the institution to essentially religious, although he admits that its acts ham Zof always strictly preserved that character. In Lancashire al: 4 other places funds have been collected for the assistance f decayed brethren, and thereby given, in some degree, the ch.: ratter of benefit or benevolent societies to Orange Lodges. Imperial Grand Lodge, however, has never sanctioned such an object ; having stated in the ordinances of 1834, that benefit clubs are excrescences which the institution takes no notice of whatever, and will not recognize ; but they will not prohibit them, provided they do not interfere with any of the rules of the institution. If the object, of Orange Lodges were to be judged of by the moral qualification required by any person before he can be admitted a member, there would be little objection to them. The polifications arc stated in the rules and or dinances ; and the ro!?owing are some of the chief requi sites :—Every person, to be flualified to be an Orangeman, s h o u:,:l love rational and. improving society : regarding with affection tika Protestant established religion, and sincerely desiring to propagate its precepts,. Wisdom and prudence should guide his actions ; temperance and sobriety, honesty and integrity, direct his conduct; and the honour and oloi7 of the King and country be the n;otives of his exertions." Your Committee find that the Ocano - e.Ledges have a decidedly, political character, and that all their acts have some political object in view. PATRONAGE. It appears by the correspondence that the institution has been considered ,by. Orangemen a source of pa tronage, and there are various applications from the bre thren for the influence• and assistance of the dignitaries of the Imperial Grand Lodge (which influence and assistance appear frequently to have been used) to procure licenses for public-houses, pensions in the artillery, and situations in the police and in the docks ; :And these applications ap pear to have increased to such an c , xtent, that the deputy grand, secretary intimates, in the glinted circular of the proceedings of the Imperial Lodge, held on the 16th . April, 1833,. " That the duties of the deputy grand secretary arc so irksome and onerous, as compels him to notify, that his labours will not admit of the adn'.tiGnal toils imposed by applications for patronage and placqs, which are pouring in upon him daily. To so oppress►ve an extent have such importunities. been carried, as to be suf ficient to engross the whole attention of one individual, to read (far less to investigate the merits of) memoriOs and petitions, with the prayers of which neither the Illustrious Grand Master of the Empire, nor the Deputy Grand Master, has the power of complying. The deputy grand secretary has to , remind the brotherhood, that it never was intended the institution' shoUld be rendered thus sub servient to the personal views and private ends of the inte rested." NUMBER OF LODGES. The Committee have found . considerable difficulty in ascertaining the number of Orange Lodges bolding under the Royal Orange Institution of Great Britain, as Lieute nant-Colonel Fairman, the deputy, Grand Secretary, de clared that he had no register of the lodges made up to N present time : he stated that there were about 800 lodge: in activity, as he had kept no general register, but had noted list of new warrants, granted, and of old warrants reneweJ ,on separate slips of paper, which were minutes of the Grand Lodge, and at other times omitted ; ann sometimes entered on , 4 1.' ,4 therefore, he could not give t. the exact number. Mr. Eustace wode, who had been, for about ten years, deputy Grand see: , .tary previous to Lieutenant-Colonel Fairman, stated that thj_ r e were, in his time, about 300 lodgesin Great Britain and the ."*° l°ni : s ; and he delivered in a printed list ,of 337 lodges, corr:7et9d up to 1830, thirty of which, .as 'afterwards :stated ,in tut" Report, were lodges held in the army and artillery. The Committee directed Mr. Colwill, the deputy Assistant Se cretary to Lieutenant-Colonel Fairman, to make out a re gister of the existing lodges, 'as far as they appear to be now entered in the books of the institution, amounting, as will he seen by the account, to 381, belonging to 47 districts, be side's 93 warrants, unattached to any of these districts. It appears by reference to the books of .the Secretary of the Grand Lodge laid before the Committee, and from which the' Assistant Se6-etary made out the li'st, that there are 47 districts, with a Deputy Grand Master appointed to cach ; in the Ayr district there are 10 lodges entered on the books ; in Bradford 18, in Cambridge 3, in Glasgow 12, in Liverpool 13, in Le.:Als 14, in Rochdale 12, in Woolwich 9, 87. c. The 93 lodges Unattached are in the army, in the Colonies, and in detached and isolated nliwz‘s. 'TIMBER OF 9i'ANGEMEN IN GREAT BRITAIN.

Deputy Grand Secretary would not, or could not, state of the Grand any specific number. Mr, Cooper, a membe: alrs of Committee,. who had taken .an active part in the the institution, stated that he had met in a lodge in Co.:.k" spur-street.2oo Masters_ holding warrants ; that the num ber of Orangemen in London might be 40,000, and that these, if . any emergency should occur, m . g,lit be assembled by the Grand Lodge ; that if all the, dormant Lodges were called into activity, there ,might be . about. 120,000, to 140,00 a Orangemen. Other witnesses could give no esti mate, but your Committee can hardly believe, from all.the evidence before them, that the numbers are so great as has been stated by Mr. Cooper. . Any number of brethren, not less than five, may meet and . transact Orange business in any part of Great Bri tam, under the authority of a, Master's warrant, provided that a Dignitary or Deputy Master or Committee-man be amongst them. , . LODGES IN, THE. ARMY. In the earlier. years the applications from the militia, and the other regiments which had been in Ireland, were chidly for the exchange of Irish .warrants, which they had received in Dublin, for English warrants ; and the letters will show that they were very numerous. In the circular of the pro ceedings of the Imperial Grand Lodge of the 4th June, 1833, there is the following nonce :—" All Irish warrants now in operation in Great Drita'n shall he .immediately ex changed for English warrants, by an application to the • Deputy Grand Sccreta`ry, to whose office the former ought to be sent without delay." And Mr. Chetwode informed the Committee, that he never hesitated to - exchange Eng lish for Irish warrants to regiments, or to any part of the army, and never made any inquiry, or hesitated to grant them. It is, however, stated by him, that he had thought that all the military warrants had been granted in Ireland to the non-commissioned officers and privates, with the previous sanction of the commanding officers, although he never saw any note or certificate to that purport. Youweurnmittee •have - selected some letters from non commissioned officers and privates in the army, and answers LO t14C 411 , will,s4tisfy the House that. the grand offi - -.:~-- X 44 ce cers of the Loyal Orange Institution have given assistan and encouragement to keep up and to establish lodges in the army, although these officers were made accumnted with the orders of the Commander-in-Chic;; forbidding the holding them in regiments ; and notwithstanding they were informed that some commanding officers had actually sup pressed the lodges in conformity with the general °ru l ers. Major Anderson, commanding the 56th regiment, destroy - ea warrant No. 53, which was held in that corps, and therec u a letter from Henry Nichols, of the light company, dated? May 27, 1830, requesting a new warrant. Major Middle ton,. of the 42d regiment, also prohibited the holding of the lodge at Malta. It will be seen, by the letter from New South Wales, and the letters to Corfu and other places, that the General Orders of the Commander-in-- Chief were explained to the soldiers by the deputy grand secretary, as intended not really to suppress the lodges, but to hold out only an appearance of doing so. The following is a list of military warrants to the follow ing reir, -iments, held under the Loyal Orange Instituti , ln , 'arid which were extracted from the printed list of 18.9.9 pros - nte d b r .Mr. Chetwodc ; and if the regiments and mi litary corps ho;:litig warrants under the Grand Lodge of Dublin, as stated • h i. the evidence before the House, are taken into account, 44,1 1 1 be seen how large a portion of the army has been imbued - write -Orangeism.

The books of the institution show also that money has been received from them, from time to time, for the warrants, and for the dues owing to the Grand Lodge, by the members of these lodges ; and it is difficult to comprehend how. all this could be done, and continued for so many years, without the knowledge of the grand officers of the institution in London, to whom it may-fairly be presumed that the books of the secretary and treasurer have been always accessible. _ _ ....New South \V ales and Van Diemen's Land appear to be deeply embued with the system , of Gratigeism. Your Committee refer to several letters which have come before ,:hern, and which will explain the progress of the system ; hut your Committee consider it of importance to p i„ , ! prominently before the House one letter dated Jan. 1833, . which it appears that the deputy grand secretary of the inst:.&ution in London induced the writer, a soldier, to disobey the orders of his commanding officer, and did actually exchange :4•D Irish for an English warrant to hold a lodge, contrary to t:. - c orders of the Commander-in-chief, at the time he knew tha , t - the military orders were against such grant. ,9ydney, January 13, 1833.

I knew there was an order issued in-1829 prohibiting 'Orange Lodges in the Army, but this was only, as. I believe, to satisfy our most bitter enemies ; but if our beloved Sovereign w.a.. 3 depending on them for the support of his Crown, he would find the result ; hut I hope God will keep them from further ncwer, for they are getting too much in power, both in the firi.ly and public. I am. of opinion that if Orange Lodges were es,fablished. in this coun try, it would increase the welfare of the c ommunity, for there is numbers of free: respeeta.hie inhabitants at.'d discharged sol diers would support the same; but we are not sillowecl to make inhabitants Orangemen under our warrant held as a military ;one ; but if there was a warrant granted to me, i am assured it Ns - ould increase rapidly, as I intend to stop in this o .quntry by purc hoing my discharge, when I shall make commu.lication to you 00 the same.
