GRAND NAT. COUNCIL CHAMBER,
WASHINGTON, D. c. July Is, 1867.
II being alleged that a traitor in
Tennessee has divulged the National
pass-word of the order, with some
other portions Of the work, q change
will be promptly made in the same.
Until such change il communicated
through the authorized agents of the
order, each State and each subordinate
council will, by order of its president,
adopta special local password, TO be
given only to members who are known
or vouched tor as truly loyal men.
We take this occasion to say, that
the principles and purposes of the
Union League Of America are before
the public without reserve, and arc
confidently submitted for tho approval
of every patriot. The secret work so
called and the passwords are used
for tho purpose only of keeping the
enemies of the Order out of its coun-
cila.
The Order does not in tho least
feel embarrassed by any pretended
exposure. The better its objects are
known the more will tho organization
be appreciated. Tho pass. words will
be changed. The work of the Order
will 90 on without interruption, and
tho traitor, whoever he may DO, will
have injured no one but himself Pa
pers friendly to the organization and
DESTROYS of promoting the triumph of
the great principles indicated in tho
contest for the preservation of the
Government, are requested to copy
this notice.

AEsaRs EDtToRs Ever since the re-or-
ganlzation Of the "old Methodist Episcopal
church" in East Tenn, by Bishop Clark, there
has been a gradual increase OF membership,
and the people have u zeal that is untiring.-
| have never witnessed snch large congregA-
tons since ! have been on this District, and
better order never was observed. Some two
weeks since, we held Q basket meeting at
Zion camp ground, nine miles from Abing-
don in Va, and notwiths landing the Oppo-
sition Of the Church South, the people turn
ed on! by hundreds. God displayed HE
power in a grascious manner--the church wAs
greatly revived, and many souls blessed.
On the 18th inst. at Zion church in Greene
county, on the St. Clair Circuit our pople had
a Sunday School celebration, and there were
present at least two thousand people.
On Last Saturday, Sunday and Monday, we
held a quarterly meeting at Carriers Station
on the Grceneville circuit. At 0 o'clock on
Sunday morning several Sabbath schools as
sembled under the large shed there, and
were addressed by tho undersigned. At IL
A. ~, We had at least one thousand hearers.
The Sacramento occasion wac an interesting
scene. Our houses are entirely too small
for quarterly and protracted meeting occa-
sions. Let all the people praise God for
what He is doing for all the loyal Christian
churches in our country. LIZ F. DRAEE.
