Mr.. K. complains that he has no paper in

would be some evidence that Mr.. K. is wrong.

make no reply to his objections against
secret Societies and oath-bound Societies.
Masons are such. and Washington was Ma
son, and SO are Mr.. K. and myself. Every
prejudice that he excites against the K. Ms
applies against the Masons. Political assn.
cIations are proper. II, then. secret oath
bound Societies are proper. aud political So.
cieties are proper. It cannot be that secret,
oath bound, political Societies are improper.
Ii all the parts are good. the nchoie must be
so. Whether Society is to be praised OF
blamed, depends not upon its secrecy or pub
Lefty. but upon its principles and objects.
Mr.. K. says that Washington. in his fare

is remarkable +; for there is mt one word OF
sentence that even Looks like ii.
Mr.. K. likens the X. N.'sto the "Jacobins.' .
Every one who has read the history ofFrance
knows how unjust this is. France was an
old and powerful monarchy. She was Cath
Ollie withal. History says the inability be-
came oppressive and the church corrupt. and
the nation in6del. The king was beheaded.
The government was destroyed. A new one
had to be formed. Different parties arose.
One wanted king and constitution. An-
other wanted a constitution without king ;
and others wanted neither king and consti.
tuition or constitution without king. Ex-
citement increased. There was nothing to
restrain them. They unanimously decreed
that there was no God, that the B Bile was ia
Bile, and death only perpetual sleep. And
hence man was only an animal. And as one
party would get tie ascendancy over the 9th.
err, they would butcher one another like ami.
mails; and at this the Jacobins were most sue
cessiul. until they were overcome 10 turn.
Now, can well understand that man might
dream Of likeness between the Jacobins aud
X. Ms, but no mortal man riie a,odke can
trace il.
