The FREEMAsoNs AND THE PORE.
The Freemasons of Lyons have just
published reply to the Pope's allo-
cution against Freemasonry. 1t is
addressed to the Sovereign Pontiff
of the Catholic Apostolic and Roman
religion" We extract from it the
following passages:
Such is faithful analysis of your
allocution of September 25th. 1t
omits nothing-not even the appeal
to the secular arm, and the not very
Christian wish to see us crushed for
the good of the church. Such an
attack would justify virulent reply.
Ours shall be calm. We have the
consciousness of the justice of our
cause and the probity of our inten-
tions and our acts. Be good enough
to hear. In our noble France and in
our time nobody is condemned I'M
heard. In Rome, to its shame, it is
otherwise. Perhaps you would have
cited us to your bar.
The law Of Freemasonry, of which
you are doubtless ignorant, would
have replied for us. It's first article
is literally as follows: "Freema-
sorry, an institution essentially phil
anthropic, philosophic and progress
sive, has for its object the investiga-
ton of truth, the study of universal
morals, science and art, and the ex-
ercise of benevolence." Its second is
this: "In the high position which it
occupies, Freemasonry respects the
religious faith and the political opin-
ions of each of its members, but it
formally prohibits in its assemblies
all discussions of religious Or political
subjects, having for its aim contro-
versy as to different religions or
criticism of the civil authority and
the different forms of government"
Is it necessary for us to explain our
symbols In our opinion liberty is
an imprescriptible right which has
it's absolute limitation in the liberty
of others.
You call all men brethren, and we
need not inform you that egotism is
short-sighted kind of cleverness.
A reciprocal affection ought to unite
men; they owe one another mutual
aid; we remind them that the rights
of each have a rigorous equivalent
which is called duty. We believe
that we possess sufficiently precise
idea of what is just and what is I'M
Just. For us the end never iustifes
the means. We reckon by thou
sands our adherents and our lodges.
IF this sketch of our doctrine is I'M
true, it will call forth numerous de.
malls. We await the result. "Why,"
say the Freemasons, in conclusion,
"reproach us for holding our meet
ings with closed doors, when you
know the moment we shall possess
the liberty of assembling, like that
which the churches possess our doors
will be open never to be closed
again"

PROVED Of sny othef feature of his poll
cy. Besides this there is not, as yet, a
single particle of evidence going to
show that the act ofWILKEs BOOTH was
authorized or planned by the rebel gov
eminent. If it was, it has signally and
utterly failed of the approval of those in
this community who, having friends in
the South, have some natural sympathy
with them in their struggle. We have
heard several of this class say that
if they had any idea that the Con-
federate government authorized the as
sassination of President LINCOLN, they
would forever dismiss whatever respect
they might have heretofore entertained
for it.
The better opinion seems to be that
BOOTH is a rash and fanatical young
man, who was probably maddened by Ii
quor and infamed with desire for no
toriety, even though it should be pur-
chased at the price of horrible crime.
The tragic air and flourish with which he
did the fearful deed, seems to afford some
color to this view. The fact that, as re-
ported in some of the accounts of the
murder, he exclaimed after springing
upon the stage Of the theatre, II am
avenged" seems to indicate that his mo-
tive was personal one and that he
sought revenge for some private wrong
to himself OF friends
At all events, whatever his motive
may have been, it is obviously wrong to
accuse Democrats of any endorsement
Of the crime; and. we think, until
the truth of the whole matter is
thoroughly sifted out, (Which We hope
will soon transpire,) it is also wrong to
charge the crime upon the rebel govern
ment, and thus dismiss all those feelings
of magnanimity which so lately promis-
ed to unite the people of the North and
South again, in Union never to be brok-
en-. Bad as we believe the rebellion to
be, we cannot yet think that any consid-
cradle body of our countrymen, either in
in the North or the South, would endorse
or approve such wicked and internal
act The fact that both Nh LINCOLN
and Mr.. SEWARD have long been consid-
red the most liberal and conservative
members of the Administration. is, OF
itself. evidence that the opposition party
was in no way concerned in the death of
the ora and the attempted murder Of the

Che Wrong Spirit.

We were sorry to observe last Saturday
shat the mournful circumstances of the
Presidents death seemed to revive bitter
feelings of craftsmanship in the hearts of
some of the more earnest supporters of
his administration. Recent acts of the
President himself had done much to al
lay the bitterness of party strife. and to
heal discussions among the people. and
we feel warranted in saying that, were
he alive now, he would strongly disap-
prove Of some of the sentiments uttered
by his friends on the streets last Satur-
day and at the meeting in. the Coart
House. This is certainly no occasion tor
the display Of bad passions or giving
vent to a mob spirit. The event is sad
one, calling rather for tears and demon
STATIONS of sorrow, than for blind and
ungoverned rage. 1t is all wrong to
suppose that those, in this community,
who have been opposed in political opia-
ION to the late President of the United
States, do mott as heartily mourn his
death and as sternly condemn the mon
strsus crime of his assassination as do
the membersof his own party. We speak
that we know when we declare that,
among Democrats here, there is but one
opinion concerning the sad event which
has caused the nation to mourn; it is that
of sincere and heartfelt grief at the
occurrence, and horror and indigna-
tion Mt tho crime The conservative
men in this city and elsewhere arc
determined that they will not be placed
in the false position of sympathising,
even in the remotest degree. with the
perpetrator of fiendish crime. or, By
the remotest implication, endorsing his
act. It is ON outrage upon their feelings
and their rights to charge them with
any responsibility for, Or any qualification
at, the atrocious deed 81. ..,l
An effort has also been made to use the.
death of the President as the occasion of
stirring up anew the fires of hatred
against the South. and infusing into the
war mere bitterness aud relentless fury
than have recently characterized it,
The opinion has been advocated that Di-
vine Providence may have removed Mr.
LINCOLN because he was disposed to be
too lenient and merciful to the rebels
This, too, we conceive to be wrong
There h no more rrocflthat the leniency
of the President was the eanse Of his
assth than that the Almighty disaps

Upon tho release Of Gen. EwELL and sundry
other persons from Fort Warren, near Boston,
lately, they were made the recipients of
quite an ovation by some of the solid men of
Boston. The party-which included Mr.,
HARRY GILNoR, of Baltimore, whose only
reputation has been obtained by his opera
tions as rebel guerrilla and highwayman-
and as q very mean and dirty highwayman
at that-were very handsomely entertained
at an elegant mansion on fremont street.
A few days afterwards, Mr.. GILMoR might
have been seen standing at the bar of ono Of
tho principal hotels proclaiming his own
bravery, Boosting of his robberies, accepting
propositions to drink from great numbers Of
Boston men, who quarrclled among themselves
for the privilege of testifying their respect
for the rufian by paying for his whisky.
They applauded his determination to return
to Baltimore to stand his trial upon indict-
ments there found against him. Whether
they felt ashamed of themselves when, over
their congress water the noxt morning, thoy
learned that GILMoR had fed his country,
We cannot say.
Mr.. RICHARD TAYLOR, of Louisiana, who
disgraced an honored name by taking service
in the rebel cause, and who has never gained
much credit even among his fellows for SOL
dierly conduct, and who, we believe, has
never satisfactorily accounted for his share
in transaction by which seven citizens Of
Louisiana, who had seen At to enlist in the Sth
Vermont regiment, wero, upon being cap
turod at Bayou des Allemands, compelled to
dig two holes by the Bayou, into which they
were thrust after they were shot, for being
technical descrters from the Confederate
army. Mr., RICHARD TAYLOR has recently
travelled hereaboutsi has sought and obtained
admission into good society, and he likewise
found his fiunkeys-men who register him at
clubs and hotels as General, " title which
he can claim by VirtuO only of his service in
the rebellion.
If people wish to play the aunkey to
the spirit of treason, can't they find some
thing better than highwaymen, horse thieves
and-DICk TAYLoRs, to pay their attentions
to?
