A Secret rrsasonabIe organization.

At late Union gathering IN Indiana polls
Gov. Morton stated that he had reliable and
certain information of the existence of d trea-
sonable organization in that State, the object
of which Is to resist the collection of the war
taxes, to discourage cnlistmentS, &c. The In
dianapolis Journal says that the body is the
Knights of the Golden Circle which has. how
ever, changed its name twice during the past
year to avoid exposure. 1t now calls itself the
order Of the IS. 2 B. or Self Protecting
Brothers. Should the members of the order
be called as witnesses in u court of justice they
are TO deny its existence under penalty Of
death if they divulge it. Tie oath requires
the members to resist the prosecution Of the
war in every way, to refuse to pay the war
taxes, to discourage enIistments and prevent
drafts, and to overthrow the Administration CT
President Lincoln. Arms are being procured
to enable the order TO carry out its purposes
by force if needed. 1t is claimed that there
are ten thousand members in Indiana, as many
in Ohio and more in Illinois. The Louisville
Journal says:
I'VE recently had an interview with a
couple Of gentlemen of the highest political,
social, and moral standing in Indiana, who
assured rs that respectable men, representing
themselves rs members of the order had se-
cretly ard cautiously come before them aud
made the same statement substantially as that
given above in regard to It's principles and
designs stated that the obligation, assumed
by members at the initiation was to resist If
all practicable ways the collection of wal
taxes, to discourage enliStments. to prevent
drafts, and, if called as wi tnesses in court o
Justice, 10 deny oil knowledge of the existence
of any such order or organization on penalty
of death aud they added that they understood
there were several degrees of the order, thougl
they knew only what pertaintd to the first" +"
The Cleveland Leader, from which we cop.
the above, says, it can scarcely be donbte'
that this order is widespread in Ohio.

noBEshr1oN NECESSARY TO eaEArurs.

MoDE2hTI0N NECESSARY TO GREATNESS
Although energy of character is derived
from Strength OF passions, yet the accom-
pl8hn.ent ot anything worthy of admiration
depends upon the control of those passions
In of known capacity, moderation is
always an evidence of greatness; it shows thar
be IS aele to observe and take advantage of
Tue IndisTetions Of other men-to estimate
deli 5srately The present, as compared with
The Fast or future, without being imposed
npon by exaggerated views which deceive
mos Of mankind, Talleyrand was described
in i5s early life, by an acute observer. as des-
!ined TO distinction, by reason of the posses
sion Of these qualities. or Hamden it is re-
lated that he kept himself in reserve in the
early part of the contest between the Parlia-
aaent and king, preparing himself for the crisis
which he knew was impending. His carriage"
says Clarendon, .'throughout this agitation
WAS with that rare temper and modesty that
tIey who watchd him most narrowly, 20 find
some advantage against his person, to Elake
him less resolute in his cause, were compelled
TO give him just testimony" lie appears
to have left to other leaders Of the opposition
The credit and responsibility, while he calmly
waited for the time which should call for his
superior ability.
II is an indication of greatness. if a man
who is COZ sious Of natural power, is patient
OF the delay which may be interposed to his
advancement. A premature attempt might
place him il: a false position: at all events
he will not be likely to have the influence
which he may expect if he waits bis time
Il may, indeed happen that the opportunity
may not be offered for the full display of all
his capacity. 1t is an incident OF human life
that good fortune does not happen 10 ALL yet
in The ordinary course every man will sooner
or later find the position 10 which his merit
entities him. Or if, perchance, it should be
lis lot to 20 down to death without his fnme,
