The Odd Fellows and Their Ex-
amples of Reunion.

Under this caption the Baltimore Sun of
the 2lst ult. contains well-written article
in relation to the recent reunion of Odd Fell
lows from the different, sections of the
country in that city. 1t says: e,. 8, frpi,l,,
The demonstration of the assembled dele
cations of Odd Fellows in this city yester-
day, from the various States of the Union,
rose to dignity and importance, which
few, not fully comprehending the influence
and the scope of the Order, had been able
10 anticipate. The occasion was one of
great significance in the history of the
Order--the inauguration, of a monument
loftily reared, in the purity of marble and
surmounted, by the typical figure of
Charity, to the founder of Odd Fellowship
in the United States. The benefcent prin-
ciples which are set forth as the. basis of
the organization are found to havesurvived
the surging passions of the period of civil
eommotion and bloedshed, and now at the
end of the strife, its members from the
widely distant sections of the country,
come forth giving a first bright example to
all, of whateyero position, of the practica-
bility, the utility, the duty, and the beauty
of the prompt return to the era Of good
feelings of; brotherly affection, and true
national unity. nr lteia
These instincts should be common to all
Americans, for, under their impulse, the
binding up Of the nations wounds and the
linking again of all its parts and its people
in such indissoluble and fraternal bonds as
shall insure q future career of happiness
and prosperity win be thespeediest accom-
plished. 1t seems fortunate that this ma
tional assemblage Of q beneficent order OF
American citizens should take place at this

Fort SUMTER" urged Secretary Seward, ~it
will serve to instruct. arouseand unite the
nation" How clearly through the ferocity
Of Gilchrist, the vulgarity of Chandler, and
the elevated and proper language which
Holt employs in behalf of Seward, sliitie,
the hearts of the traitors, their sectional
hatred, and the determination to crafty it
by arousing the tiercest passions of the peo-
pie, and hurting them thus maddened and
armed for the work Of death into civil
war which they believed would be the ferc-
est and most terrible that ever convulsed a
nation and drenched its fields in blood. ..u-
Perhaps the '',loyal" can decide, after a
perusal of Mr., .Blair's reply, whether Stan
ton or Seward, as they were plotting to-
gether with rebels against the Union, was
most willing to sacrifice it to partisan ends
and sectional maleyoleDee, or was to a
greater degree influenced by all the bad
passions which stimulate the vindictive, am
bilious and constituencies demagogue; but
we think they will be troubled in reaching
their verdict, and even more seriously per-
picked in an endeavor to find flaw in the
evidence which the '.loyap associate of
these men in the Cabinet of Mr.. Lincoln
presents against them.-ChicqQo Times.

Fishing in Lake Erie


It appears that while the fish are
decreasing in numbers, in many OF
the most famous fshing-grounds Of
the ocean, they are rather increas-
ing than otherwise in the great
lakes of this continent. The prin.
G pal isLing.ground near Sandusky
Bay, furnished, in the months Of
April, October and November, in
the year 1860, about thirty tuns OF
fish a day. For the two years
next succeeding the lakes were in,
creased about five tons per day in
each year; that is to say, in 1852
they were forty tuns a day. The
next year, 1858, they increased ten
tuns, reaching fifty tuns day; and
last yea1, the takes averaged fifty
tuns, and a little over, per day
during the three months named
The fish are principally bass, pike
and pickerel. Further west, in the
deep, cool waters about Thunder
Bay, in Lake Huron, the delici Gus
and delicate whitefsh are caught
in very large quantities.
