SONG OF MARGARET.

All, | saw her, we have met
Married eyes how sweet they be
Arc you happier, Margaret,
Than YOU might have been with me
Silence make no more ado;
Did she think should forget
Matters nothing, though knew,
Margaret, Margaret.
Once those eyes, full sweet, full shy,
Told certain .hing 10 mine
What they told me | put 10y,
Oh, so careless Of the siga.
Such an easy thing to take,
And did not want il then
Fool wish my heart Would break
Scorn is hard On hearts Of men.
Scorn offs selfis bitter work
Each Of US have felt il now
Bluest skies she counted mirk,
solf-bCtrayed Of eyes aud brow,
AS for me, wcntmy way,
And better man drew nigh,
Fain to earn, with long essay,
What The winners hand threw by.
Matters not ip desert old
What was bofn,. and waxed, and yoarncd,
Year to year lis meaning told,

Come, bit there is nought to osay-S
Married Eyes with mino have met,
Silence Oh, Ihad my day,

Social Relationship of Masonry.

Social Relationship of Masonry.
A remark of Gen. Washington's. that
If Masonry never accomplished anything
else, tui tho protection il threw around
the female relations of Masons, it vas
worth al the labor il cost, made perma-
nent impression on oug mind, as ovincing
social theory second 10 none in the
, world.
No true FTeemason can look upon the
mother, wife, sister or daughter of a
brother, without experiencing in their be-
half tenderness of sympathy and inter-
es, only understood by the fraternity. He
looks upon them as his special wards,
and he KNOWS not how soon he may as
sumo, through the stern mandates OF death
all the relationship OF "brother;" having
this daily experience on account Of those
who have passed away, he already feels
toward the female relations of his living
brother the sentiments OF sincere esteem
and protection. TO him all are vir;uous,
and that character he defends for them, If
necessary, with bis llfc's blood, this lie is
reciprocal Though tine masonic relation.
ship Of the world, ueuuo arises that un-
deGnablc confidence in the social circle
which the profano cannot understand.
This relationship is sacred, and the man
who, so lost TO all sense Of honor and
trust as toViolate this assurance, bad bet
ter never been born.
From his delicate relationship springs
the highest Sentiments OF regard for e-
male character and virtue. The passions
are subdued and famed by the exercise
of an exalted mortality, and we are taught
to feel that zee do live in world where
the better principles Of our nature can and
must triumph.
In the worst ages OF licenliousness, the
social ties of Masonry have wilhstood the
storm, and il some poor, miserable, cow
arLly wretch may, here or ahere, have
been carried away beyond the safe moor
ings Of his character as 4 Master Mason,
the execraliOns and swift punishment Of
the brotherhood only proved the crime
exceptions TO our noble principles.
The consequence deduced from this
lesson is, that Masons should be pure To
their life and conduct, fer although we
may trUsi each other, yet women are not
aware Of our mutual agreements. but are
ap, 30 Judge Us for wha! We seem, and no
brother would like 10 feel that he lacks
the confidence Of his masonic sisters. If
he does, i! is his own fault When we
are informed by the physician at the bed
side that life is drawing TO close and TO
prepare for death, our greatest agony is
naturally for the most helpless we leave
behind us; but if we know tha, the widow,
mother, sister or daughter will be watch.
ed over by the fraternity, and their honor
will be defended under all circumstances,
that reflection is worth more than the
heritage Of fortune. Yet such is the
consolation OF every true and dying Ma
son. How great, how vast, and yet how
tender, is the social relationship Of Free
masonry !

Guard Against vulgar Language.

There is as much connexion between
the words and the thoughts as there is be-
tween the thoughts and the words; the
latter are not only the expression of the
former but they have power 10 react
upon the soul and leave the stains Of their
corruption there. A young man who al
lows himself 10 use one profane or vulgar
word, has not only shown that there is a
foul spo, on his mind, but by the utter
ance Of that wo:d he extends thatspot and
in1anes it, till by indulgence, i; will soon
polUie and ruin the whole soul. Be
careful of your words, as well as your
thoughts. If you can control the tongue,
that no improper words are pronounced
by il, you will soon be able 10 control the
mind and save that from corruption. You
exIinguish the fire by smoihering i',.oT
by preventing bad thoughts bursting ouI
in language. Never utter any where,
thsl which you would be ashamed 10
speak in presence of the most religious
man. Try this practice little, ond you
will soon have command Of yourself.
