We find the following in an old English
paper, from speech delivered by Mr. Cooper
at a meeting of the order of Greenock, Scotland
Mr. Cooper said:
The origin of the orGer of Odd Fellows
is of very great antiquity. 1t was established
by the Roman soldiers in the camp during the
reign of Nero, in the year 55.-At that time
they were Fellow Citizens" The present
name was given them by Titus Cesar in the
year 70, from the sngularity of their meeting
and from their knowing each other by night or
by day, and by their fidelity to him and their
country. And he not only gave them the
name of Odd Fellows, at the same time a
pledge of friendship presented them with a
dispensation, engraved on plate Of gold, bear
ing different einbiems, such the Sun, Moon
and Stars, the Lamb, the Lion, and the Dove.
| and other mblems of morality. The first ac-
count OF the order being spread in other conn
tries ~ the fifth century, when it established
| i'll the Spanish dominlons, and in the sixth cen
tnry by King Henry in Portugal, and in the
eleventh it was established in France, and af-
| terwards by John d. Neville in England, at
| tended by i've knights from France, who formed
| a Loyal Grand of Honor in London, which
order remained until the twelfth century, then
a part of them began to form themselves into
unon and a portion of them remain up to this
day-the lodges which now very numerous
throughout the world, and call themselves the
Loyal Ancient ODD Fellows, being a portion
of the original body. The Manchester Unity
is of a more recent date, although there is nc
| doubt of its emanatng from the source 1t:
first introduction into Manchester was about
the year 1900, by few individuals from the
Union in London, who formed themselves into
a lodge and continued in connection with then

Saturday morning this gentleman sent word to
the cxperts of the Bank of France, that he had
at length succeeded fully in the imitation OF
one of the thousand frame notes that he dafed
them to detect it, and to show his perfect con-
victon of the impossibility of discovery, he
warned them that the note would he presented
