THE KNIGHTS TEMPARLS.


The Boston Traveller having alluded, in
q very complimentary manner. to the par
ticipatlon OF the various Masonic bodies in
the ceremonies in memory Of their brother
Gen. Warren, a Knight Templar furnishes
on the ground that Free. Masonry, bowing
to the utilltarlan spirit Of the age, cheer
fully opens its historical treasures to every
inquirer-as follows:
''The Knights Templars is an order that
originated in Ills, with nine valiant and
pious knights. eminent among the earliest
crusaders for their devotion to the cause in
which the Christian world had embarked
the rescue of Judea, and especially the Holy
City, from the Saracens.
The ossensibIe object for the formation
of distinct order Of knighthood, was to
protect all poor and weary pilgrims on their
visst to the holy places. To do this, these
nine warriors engaged themselves to a life
of chastity and piety at the tomb Of the
Saviour, solicited as their patroness ssthe
sweet mother of God" ia douee Mere de
Diep) and took the four vows Of chastity,
poverty, obedience, and to fight necessarily
in the cause Of pilgrims and the Holy Land,
against the heathen. Their frst Grand
Master was Hugh de Paynes. Their style.
''the soldisry Of the Temple" or Stem
plars," Militia Templi) grew out Of the
fact that, that portion Of the palace Of
King Baldwin II. which was assigned to
them As their residence, stood close by the
church and near the Convent of the Temple.
The order Of Tsmplars became At oncs
popular. Their unrsmisting unsefish de-

Christ's sakes; and the enthusiasm Of the

He then dilated upon the different shapes
Of this continent from others. Looking,
said he, from the North, where DR.. Kane
died trying to find road, that don't see
would have been any use if he had found
it, and besides, there amt no way since
God Almighty made it right fast and hitch.
ed it on to the North pole. Look on down
at the corn-bearing region. l hear you can
grow 100 bushels of corn to the acre in
the Miami Valley, and the only difficulty is,
you distil too much Of it into whiskey, that
ruins a great many talented men. Then
away down South to the sugar plantstions,
see how varied the productions. How gor.
geous this continent and how numberlesa
its productions. This variety makes trade
and binds the Union.
Marshall here swayed about little and
began again
Who would trade potatoes for potatoes?
A voice from the other side Of the street
"Hurah!"
Marshall-"f hope when that, come,
comes, old fellow, it will switch you with
its tail.'
He then went on to elucidste the idea that
the trade Of Europe and Asia must centre
here-thas here their products must be ex.
changed. He then showed the folly Of the
notion that the Union could be dissolved,
and pictured the condition Of Kentucky IN
such An event, obliged to pay import duties
to seaboard States, and serve ~ the outpos,
of slavery, yet certain to find her negroes
poor stock. He then traced the moral and
philosophical uses Of mountains, rains and
rivers generally, and referred to the Missis.

great gospel duties of penitence and faith are e.
radicated by bringing it into proximity with q
mere fashionable religion, when its youthful
outgoings of zeal and love are frowned upon by
judicious advisers, alias, cynics and assembling
skeptics, as vulgar enthusiasm which must be
checked and cooled. The little heart yearns
for its God and Saviour, but those yearnlngs
must be crushed. 1t is studiously brought into
contact with simple form, cold form; religion IN
its pearlsand gold to be sure but still religion in
its frozen features, a kind Of Artic-pole faith
which abiures both light and heat. Thus train
ed, the child grows up decent churcli-goer, but
a withered branch, sapless bough, no blossoms
no frui.age, no redundant growth of grace be.
longs to its after years. 1t has been sacrificed
to Moloch. The brazen idol of fashionable
Creed has embraced its heart and crushed there
from the germ and seed of vital Christianity,
and it was placed on the arms of that idol by
those who gave it birth and should have devo-
ted it to that Saviour, the maxim of whose faith
is to love God and practical beneyolence to man.
Yes there is Moloch in the church as well as
in the world, and the avowed and ostensible al
tar of God may prove shrine of Baal. Happy
they who from infancy are dedicated to
purer shrine, and who choose humble, useful,
honorable career, o career uninfuenced by the,
patent maxims of the day, to enter upon an as
sured and glorious existence. Such children
shall not rise up against their parents to cause
them to be put to DEATH Their jewels on earth
.hey shall be their crowns hereafter, and bless
hem throughout an eternity of growing JOY and
owe.

Melchior Nunez says, that in his time the
Chinese gate-keepers of Pekin were all OF them
fifteen it, high, and that the Emperor OF China had
five hundred such men for his gate e-keePers and
body-guard. There is proverb about knowing
Hercules by his foot: after the battle of Muhl-
berg, when Charles the Fifth had taken prison
er John Frederic the Electoral Prince of Saxony,
the Spanish ambassador cunningly displayed to
the court ofFrance the magnitude of the triumph,
not, indeed, by exhibiting John Frederic's foot,
but his boot. A vast boot, into which man
can almost get,was shown at the court of France,
and said to have been pulled off the leg of the
elector
And now that we have named so many great
men, we can see no reason why we should pro-
duce more as rivals to their greatness. There
are here surely enough of them to stand alone,
if they can stand at ALL Kircher, the jesuit, de-
clared it hardly possible that any very great
giant could stand Men,if they were much tall
er than six feet, would, he said surely fall to the
ground; for you see how it is with the colossal
statues in Rome, that would fall to pieces if
there were not props placed here and there un-

that man only nine feet high would require

A DUoAL RESIDENCE IN MADRID.--A late let
ter from London, published in London paper,
contains the following:
The mansion of the Duke de Medina Cell, de.
scribed by Ford as looking like ten houses taken
out of Baker street, and which was considerably
damaged in July last year by General Serrano's
caunonade, is now nearly repaired. The papers
give an account Of magnificent electric clock
that is to surmount it, having several faces, one
of which fronting the saloon or chief promenade
on the Prado, will show, besides the hour, the
day and month, and the changes of the moon:-
There is to be carlton, or peal of bells, which
will play an air as often as the hour strikes
The airs are to be l6 in number, selected from
those Spanish melodies most popular in the
provinces where the Duke has estates; that is to
say, in nearly every province of Spain.

RATHER "STRoNG- MINDED. some of our
beautiful and accomplished" ladies' of the
North have peculiarities which wonld be con-
sidered agreeable by those who make it point
to be fond of what is eccentric and outre. For
instance, we read that warrants have been is.
sued in East Deer township, Allegheny county,
Pa, for the arrest Of six young ladies, charged
with riding the schoolmaster of that district on
a rail. 1t appears that the schoolmaster refused
the use of his school-house for the purpose of
holding singing schools, which gave the young
ladies great offence. So great is the excite
ment the young ladies have secreted themselves
to avoid arrest. 1t is certainly very ungallant
of the people of Allegheny county to attempt
their arrest Charleston Courier.

RAILROAD IRoN.-Only so short time ago as
the year 1910, no rails were manufactured in
the United States. In 1S49 but 5000 tons were
made. Seven years after that witnessed an in.
crease of our manufacture to 10000 tons. An
other seven years of embarrassed growth would
see this product more than doubled, and the Eng
ljsh excluded forever from o market which they
have plagued with depressions and infat ions,
and greedily harvested these thirty years.

POETRY.


Exquisitely and tender, and almost sublime il
is simplicity, are the following lines on
''A Pauper's Death-bed."
BY CAROLINE B. soUTHEY.
"Tread softly; bow the head
In reverent silence bow;
No passing bell doth toll,
Yet an immortal soul
Is passing now.
Stranger, however great,
With holy reverence bow;
There's one in that poor shed,
One by that paltry bed,
Greater than thou.
''Beneath that beggars roof,
Lo! DEATH doth keep his state;
Enter-no crowds attend;
Enter-no guards defend
This palace gate.
"That pavement damp and cold,
No smiling courtiers tread;
One silent woman stands,
Lifting with meagre hands
dying head
"No mingled voices sound
An infant vail alone;
A sob suppressed again
That short deep gasp, and then
The parting groan
go change! wondrous change!
Burst are the prison bars;
This moment these so low
So agonized-and now
Beyond the stars!
30 change stupeudous change!
There lies the soulless clod:
The sun eternal breaks
The new immoral wakes
Wakes with his GoDP'
