Abolition Of Masonry.-We understand that there is proposition now on foot for eecting the entire abolition of masonry in this state, by dssolving the Grand Chapter and Lodge, and by closing all the Lodges and burning their charters, without reserve This plan meets the appreciation of masons Tn this country they consider that time, and the institu- tions of our government have rendered masonry useless. We have, IS every body knows, no par tiality for anmasonry, yet we approve ot the plan proposed as tending to remove all causes for the ex- citement and we hope the presses throughout the State will give it their attention.
 We have taken the foregoing paragraph from the Duchess County Intelligencer of yesterday, and most heartily do we concur in the project It has long been our opinion that, under existing clrcum- stances the members of the masonic order, not only in this state, but throughout the Union, would act wisely to disband themselves-nOt only for season, but forever The Grand Lodge ofthe State will as semble in few days and it is to be hoped they will entirely dissolve the body Antl-masonry will then die and peace and harmony be restored to many distracted and agtated communities.
 N Y Com. Adc.
 Indeed this is a singular mode of abolishng anti masonry by yielding to all it's unreasonable demands and submitting to its spirit of prescription and per secution The masons ofNew-York may succumb, if they please, but verify believe they will find few in other parts of the country disposed to follow their pusilanimous example. "Aboton of Ma sonry" indeed! Never will that event be.brought about in our opinion, till the final .wreck o matter and the crush of worlds" We believe that mason ry like every thing else, has been abused, and we consider it far less important to the well being of so ciety in the present advanced state of improvement than it has been in times past But we consider Il too firmly rooted in the constitution of man, and toe well adapted to the exigencies of every condition o the world, to be overthrown by the machinations denuncations, and intolerant persecution of clan of political enthusiasts who wish to rise into power on the ruins of this venerable institution. The pro ect may perhaps be rnse de gnsrrs intended to sl
