OF appearances, has been used as an
instrument for the suppression of what
ever was obnoxious, or was suspected OF
being SO, to the Administration, and
persons as well as rights that incon-
veniently stood 10 its way have been
summariIy put down. A regime OF
terror, unflinchingly carried out, usually
produces a stupor which is apt to lie
mistaken for submission but its second
airy effects are always dangerous. Men
obliged to live in perpetual apprehension
that they may any day be deprived of
all that they hold dear, not excepting
life itself, to prefer, in self-defence to
accept the chances of conspiracy; and
when, as in the case of Spain, the
sentiment of loyalty is widely under
mined, conspiracy is a foe that any
Government may we'll dread. A sense OF
this peril is not unlikely to have had its
influence in encouraging the i~nSolent tone
adopted by Spain in reference to foreign
affairs; and Marshal Narvaez may have
thought that an insult to some European
Power, accompanied by a due amount of
bravado, might tend to excite national
passions in The breasts of SpanlardS strong
enough to overbear the resentment eX-
cited by their own domestic wrongs.
Spanish ofirialism, especially in its
subordinate grades, has never been noted
for standing upon poGctilios of ciyillty
towards those foreigners with whom It's
assumed duties may happen to bring it
into conflict. 1t is not always safe to
count upon the courtesy of a Spanish
admiral in the discharge of his profession
al obligations where the interests of
strangers only are at stake it is decided
Nv unsafe to look for it under similar
circumstances from the commandant of a
guarda costa. 1t would be unfair, in the
absence Of sufficient evidence, to PREJUDICE
the question as TO whether the Tornado
was seized rightfuIly or wrongfully. The
complaint against the authorities OF Spain
in that particular instance is that they
took measures, and very outrageous
measures, too, to bar all access by the
owners of the vessel TO regal redress in
case it was equitably due to them. The
shin NAV have been an Alabama making
her way out, in breach of neutrality laws
and international usage, TO the CHILEAN
Government, with which Spain was at
war. If so, her capture may be Justified.
But that was a question tor careful trial.
To proceed upon suspicion to acts of
severity which could hardly be warranted
even on conviction constituted an affront
which no Power could leave unnoticed.
The papers which have been laid before
Parliament on this question too amply
prove that after the Tornado had been
taken into Cadiz every step of the local
authorities to secure her condemnation
was in singular defiance of international
good faith. The brutal treatment of the
crew, the instructions thrown in the way
of witnesses, the effrontery practised on
the British Consul, the e~vasive pretexts
of the Government at Madrid, the unne-
cessary delays, the transparent shutting,
and, finally, the derisive offer of the
Foreign Secretary of Spain to have the
case reviewed on appeal, present a tout
ensemble of deliberate offensiveness which
it required all Lord SANKEY'S philosophlc

Steamship Atr0tO, now coaling here, has
expressed his most anxious wish to
obtain his complement of Goals with the
least possible delay in order to proceed
to Peter Island /; this desire is felt, he
states, as we learn, in consequence Of the
receipt of a private letter from Porto
Rico, which informs him that one of the
Spanish Frigates now in our port had
had a most fearful visitation of yellow
fever, occasioning a good deal of Immortality.
We have been at the pains OF making
the most ample enquiry, and on the very
best authority we are enabled 10 say that
there has been no sickness in any one
of the foregoing vessels, excepting the
Conception which has had one case of
TYPHOID fever, of a months duration after
leaving San Juan de Cuba, and which
proved fatal after coming into our
port; the lowering Of the ships flags in
consequence thereof is familiar TO every
one on shore.

TlDINGS FROM The CRAFT
Let us be Guarded.

How important it is to guard we'll
the entrance to the Lodge of Free
masons. None but men, true and
faithful, should ever be allowed to
cross the threshold. The unworthy
and undeserving should find no place
within the sacred enclosure of
this ancient order. There may be
different opinions entertained by
those who gather in the Lodge room,
but they should be able to sit down
together with one accord, at the foot
of the altar, and call each other
brother. What though our religious
views differ and our political faith
be opposite, what though we come
from the workshops, or from legis-
lative halls; it is our privilege to
meet as brothers, laying aside all
differences Of opinion. which may
mark our course in the outside
world. Indeed we should see to it,
that no others but those who are
worthy Of a brothers place in our
atfectionate regard, should be allow

teaching. Let every Mason be care
full who he recommends; let every
committee be careful whom they an.
prove In nothing is Masonry m ore
distinctive under the landmarks
than in the admission to membership.
"None but the true, the tried, and
the trusty, are allowed to enter.'
Let this good old rule be closely
observed at the commencement, and
we will avoid very many difficulties.
An unworthy brother once inside
the temple and among the workmen,
may do injury. See to it, that the
ancient landmarks of the order are
strictly carried out.
How great the necessity of caution
at the threshold, when no wrong can
be done brother; when so many
are knocking for admittance, we
cannot be to watchful. Let the ay-
enues be strictly guarded, and close
ly watched. The institution has
come down to us through the ages
crowned with honor and glory; and
in no portion of our land does Ma
sorry occupy more honorable po-
sition than in the Keystone State;
let us travel the same road which
the many worthy have travelled be-
fore us, minding the same rules, and
we will be able to maintain our no.
bic position. Let every brother feel
the great responsibility resting upon
him to look we'll after the candi-
dates for admission. We may not
increase SO rapidly in numbers, but
We will be able to preserve the quail
ity Of our brotherhood, and send
down to those who come after on,
jewels untarnished.-Keystene.

Friendship and its Values.

Is not this curious fact in all our
nature, that we only begin to know
the value of friends when they arc
lost to us in the grave? 1t ought
to teach us to turn with increased
tcndcrn css to those that remain
We shonld feel that our affection for
living friends is cnlivened by the
reflection that they will soon pass
away. If we were half so lcnient to
the living as we are to the dead, how
much happiness might we render
them, and from how much pain and
bitter rcmorse might we be spared

How TO GIyE.-We have the very
highest authority for saying that
''God loveth the cheerful giver." A
gift wrung from the hand Of a miser.
by fear Of shame, or as price Of
popularity, is no gift. The heart
should be warmed by bcnevolence.
and charity should spring from it
spontaneously, as the pure water
bubbles from the mountain rock. -

he love those who give grudgingl,
