II the malign spirit of masonry exhibits itself
in the trivial circumstance, of constituting an
individual a member of an association, the pro-
fessed and only object of which is, to protect
the property Of our fellow citizens from the de-
structive eltment of fire,-if the black spirit of
masonry shows itself so conspicuously in SO tri-

fit are united? That masonry would, under
those circumstances, exercise sovereign con-
troll, is an irresistible inference. / express
those views, MIR. Editor, feelingly and senti-

her poisonous darts in every direction.--she
has severed the hottest ties of human nature.
