FREE MASONRY.

Free masonry is said to be squatting
down out west, and building a house
there.-.N. Y. Mirror
To this the y. S. Gazette replies:
Free Masonry 'squatted' in the west,
long before our brother squatted by the
side of his mother. 1t warmed the
heart, and meliorated the manners, of
many of the chiefs ofthe native nations,
and served to mitigate the misery of
some who fell into their hands. Free
Masonry ssquatted' down with the ear
ly settlers on the Mississippi: and her
unobtrusive halls are seen amid the
newly risen dwellings and public edi-
fees Of the people. Her large collie
ges ornamented the shores of the great
Father of Waters, and public acade
my, beauties the summit ola hill hun
dreds of miles farther west. The trav-
elIer thither turns in among his brother
squatters, and as he journeys with the
sun, finds home in 'builded house,
or welcome upon 'high hills, or in
deep vales.' four contemporary will
look carefully, he will see that the wis
dom of the order has already 'builded
her house; that every considerable COM
munity is the centre of an association;
and that all along the fertile vallies,
whereinthe log cabinsendsn up its smoke,
curling from behind the hills, there the
principle oftbe orderhas squatted down,
and is giving its possessors an enlarg
ed feeling ofphilanth'opy, that makes
man mild and soc!able with man; and
while the latchstring of his door is out
for all, the inner chamber Of his heart
is accessible to some. -

coUNsELs TO THE YOUNG.

Resolve to form your lives upon some
certain principles, and to regulate your
action by fixed rules. Manwas made
to be governed by reason, and not by
mere accident or caprice. 1t is impor-
rtant, therefore, that you begin early to
consider and inquire, what isthe prop
er course of human conduct, and to
form some plan for your future lives
The want of such considerations is
manifest in the conduct of mutitudes.
They are governed by the impulse of
the moment, reckless Of consequences.
They have no fixed, no steady aim, land
have adopted no certain principles of
action. Living thus at random, it
would be a miracle if they went uni
formly right. In order to your pursu-
ing right path, you must know what
it is, and to acquire this knowledge,
you must diyest yourselves of thought
less giddiness, you must take time for
serious reflection. 1t will not answer
to adopt, without consideration, the
opinions of those who may be about
you, for they may have some sinister
design in regard to you, or they may
themselves be misled by error or preju-
dice. Persons already involved in
dissipation, or entangled in error, natu-
rally desire to keep themselves in coun-
tenance by the number Of followers
they can seduce into the paths of vice.
As reasonable creatures, therefore,
judge for yourselves what course is
right and fitting that you should pursue.
Exercise your own reason independent
~ and lmpartially, and give not up
yourselves to be governed by mere ca
price and fashion, or by the opinion of
Others.
