MASONIC.

At solemn meeting of Humble Cottage
Lodge No. ~, Free and Accepted Masons, held
in the Masonic Hall in the town of Opeousas,
La, on the 10th day of February, in the year of
true light 1865, the following preamble and reso-
lutions were unanimously adopted
WHEREAS. it has pleased the GRAND ARcHT-
TECr OF THE UNIVERSE to remove from the
shores of life one true and worthy Brother,
Thomas J. Jones, member of Franklin Lo.
No. 81, La, and,
Whereas, The brother has lived in our midst
for the past two years, frequent visitor OF our
Lodge, and has become endeared to US by the
virtue and zeal which adorn the heart of good
neighbor, kind friend and true Mason. There
fore be it
Resoiped. That while we submit with due rev.
erence to the DEGREES of that GREAT RULER OF
THE UNIVERSE whom we are taught to adore as
the giver of all good gifts and graces. we deeply
deplore the death of bro. THOMAS j. JONES
Masonry has lost one of its brightest lights. So
ciety an ornament the soldier true friend and
benefactor, the Church pillar and Home de-
voted husband, kind and loving father. We
offer our heartfelt coincidence to the afflicted
family

HEADQUARTERS. DISTRICT WESTERN La,
Natchitoches. La, Jan. 30, 1865. {
GENERAL ORDERS No. 10.
II view of the fact that sufficient publicity has
II not been given to General Orders No, 157,
from these Headquarters series of 1864, it is
hereby republished and amended so as to give
further time for the return of men improperly alb
sent from their commands. The order thus modi-
fed is appended below.
The sentence of death recently awarded by
Courts Martial to deserters, and executed under
my orders. sufficiently shows my purpose of
dealing with men who forsake their comrades,
their colors and their country in the hour of dan
ger. But to those of my command who have
been so misled from their duty, am disposed to
give one more opportunity of returning to their
coors.
l. To those therefore who have deserted their
comrades prior to December 18th, 1864, and who
voluntarily surrender themselves to an officer of
the Confederate army before the lst of March,
1865, if in the State of Louisiana, or before the
10Th April, 1865. if in the State of Texas, and
then proceed to rejoin their proper commands, l
offer pardon, so far as to assure them that they
will not be punished with death; and if they can
show extenuating circumstances to palliate their
crime, | will be disposed to grant such a full
pardon.
H. All officers who receive deserters or a.,sen-
tees who thus report, will forward them to their
proper commands or to the nearest Headquar-
ters. with written statement as evidence of the
fact that the deserter voluntarily gave himself
up.
III. There will be no relaxation in the pursuit
of deserters in consequence of the offer of par
don above extended-but all officers are directed
to use every exertion to apprehend them and to
bring them to justice Whenever they are appre-
hended, they will be tried by Court Martial, and
if found guilty will be shot to DEATH
The pardon is extended only to those who
voluntarily give themselves up.
~. 1t must be distinctly understood that this
pardon will not embrace any who deserted after
December 10. 1864, the date of the original pub
ication of this order and all who, after reporting
to an officer fail to rejoin their commands in a
reasonable time will forfeit The pardon extended
to them.
While have no disposition to deal with ua-
due severity towards any, justice to those gallant
soldiers who in the face of every danger and
hardship stand by their colors, requires the Sc
verest punishment of those who shrink from
their sides in the day of trial II is hoped, there
fore. that the amnesty above offered, will bring
back these erring men to their coors, and that
their services hereafter will be such as to wipe
out the stain which their past misconduct has
placed on their characters

THE QUESTION OF PEACE.

News which we receive from all quarters are
strongly tending to peace. One thing is certain:
Confederate and federal commissioners are now
in conference at Washington City, probably dis
cussing the conditions Of peace between the two
contending parties VIII they succeed in bring
ing about AN ancable settlement of our Difficult
ties, or will they be obliged to separate without
having done anything9 We are inclined to be-
lieve that this Conference will attain the object
for which it has been convened.
Patience; little more patience. And may the
Eternal guide the wise men of the Conference.
