acter, walk, and conversation, and
not to blazon forth before a scandal,
loving community, any departurefr from
the strict path of rectitude; charity
for the weakness of human nature,
which will cause to privately and
mildly tell brother Of his faults, and
endeavor to effect a reformation;
charity, that though brother should
sink deep into the depths of sin and
woe, will cause us to speak kindly of
his failings, and try to raise him
from his fallen condition. Charity,
that though we differ with brother
in opinion, yet we will not speak i'll
of him, or detract from his good
name, but if he is in error, to warn
him skit; if it is a mere difference in
judgment or construction, to allow
him the same privilege we claim for
ourselves. "Tho right of forming
his opinion according to his own
Judgment, without being ccnsured OF
charged with evil doing.
If esprit of true charity, was
more generally embodied in our &C
tions, there would be less heart
hurnings and wranglings, less strife
and contention. There would be
more joy and conteutment. Broth
erly love would prevail and harmo-
NY prevail throughout. The social
bonds of society would be more
strongly knit together, for charity is
the real cement that binds us into
one common mass, and makes the
human race one family, These three,
Faith, Hope and Charity, the greatest
of these is charity. May its broad
mantle ever be our shield.

How TIE SOUTH IS TO BE SAVED.
In an able editorial upon the mean
ing of the late elections. the New York
Nor1d says:
"Thc fact that negro governments
are in process Of organization, and
that Congress may admit their repre-
sentativcs, does not vary the case ex-
cept to render a degrading farce
more contemplate. Certain tits that
these bastard governments will not
have the slightest validity, Within
fonr months after the. Presidential
election heavy battering ram will
tumble them into shapeless rubbish.
The Southern people will Immediate
ly re-organize, hold new elections,
oust the negroes, send their own rep
rcsentativcs to Washington, and the
H"use will at once admit them. The
Southern Senators Plus the Conserv-
ativc Senators from the North will
form majority Of that body, organ
ize as such, and neither the House
nor the President will recognize any
other Senate. This course is entire
ly feasible, will be perfectly constitu-
tional, and beyond question adopted if
the radicals are insane or hayward
enough to recognize the negro gov
crnments after this great rcbuke.-
The only thing that could prevent it
would be the acquiesccnce by South
ern whites in the Radical scheme
Whoever expects that, is better cnti-
tied to straight jacket than rcfu-
tation.'
If the Northern Democrats will
stand up to this programme the South
is safe.

MAsoNIc.-Wc extract the follow
ing paragraphs from the annual ad-
dress of Grand Master Orr:
"The ravages of war, and the dis
asters to the crops of the last year,
brought more or less suffering to the
doors ofmany who haljust claims upon
the order for assistance. In this e.
mergcncy, the helodges ofthe State have
provided as literally as their scant
means would allow for the relief of
the sufferers, while private charity
has accomplished much in the allcvi-
.katinR the rrnrail;ns -distrnss.-
From abroad, we have had the most
tangible evidences Of the generosity
of our brethcren, in the large dona-
tions made through the Grand Mas
ters or their associate officers. From
New York, we have received two do
hations-one ofS500, another Of $3.50.
Illinois and Missouri have likewise
remembered us, and rendered aid
Minnesota far up in the Northwest,
with a comparatively young organi-
zation, has contributed the handsome
sum of $500; while from the Monte
yuma Lodge of New Mexico, tile har-
dy, generous pioneers of the plains
have sent to their brethren of South
Carolina $50O-thus beautifully OK
employing the length nd breadth Of
that noble charity which unlerlics
aid sustains our order.
The entire amount thus received by
me from various lodges is 81, ,7S0.-
OF this sum, I placed S1.730 in
the hands of the Grand Secretary, the
Deputy Grand Master, and Brother
William Gilmore Simms, requesting
them to take charge of the distribution
of the funds, and after making prop
er inquiry Of the various lodges III the
State, as to the extent of tile suffering
in each, to carry out the instructions
and intentions of the generous donors.
A circlar was addressed to all of the
lodges, and their reports will show
that the fund has been faithfully and
fairly dispensed.

Interested Eriendshtp.

The leading Northern papers, particularly
the New York Tines and Tribune, are giving
columns of advice to the Southern Convention
ists. They suggest to them that the Constitu-
tions they are engaged in hsmmering together,
should be sufficiently conservative to warrant
their adoption by majority of the registered
voters. This is kindly advice upon the surface,
but, with little observation, the trick is evil
dent enough.
1t is feared by the Radicals that the new
Cons stitutiOns, with their prescription and dis
REIMBURSEMENT, changing of names Of counties
and big mileage to members, will lead to divi-
sions in the South and cause the Constitutions
20 be rejected, wherever the whites have the
majority. The object of the Radicals is the re-
cog lition of the political equality Of the negro
If the acts of the Conventions are ratified, the
right of the negro TO vote is at once estab-
lished. party leagued with Northern Radi-
Gals will obtain complete control Of the State
Governments, and, by legislation similar to
that of Tennessee, will maintain and perpetu-
ate their ascendancy. The Radicals oppose,
perhaps, negro suffrage in the North, but they
earnestly desire it in the South. They reject
Congressional interference in their own States,
but they generally uphold the Congressional
scheme of Reconstruction.
The one great necessity of the Radical party
is so to engineer the State Conventions in the
South as to avoid an outburst of indignation
in the North, and to prevent perfect passive
ness, or active opposition, on the part OF the
Southern whites. This can only be done by
holding the Conventonists in check, and by
exciting in the whites the hope that If they
will give way now, and ratity the new Consti-
tutions, they will soon recover their lost ascen-
dancy and become, once more, masters in t-eir
own homes. Both expectations will probably
be disappointed The negro delegates andtheir
white coadjutors will be too fond Of exerting
power to obey every beck and call of the lead
ers at washington;-the white people, with the
result of active opposition by white majority
in Virginia before them, will not allow them
selves to be compromised by giving any sane
tion to that which they hold to be illegal, and
with which the majority long since determined TO
have nothing whatever to do. Silence and in
action are the keys of the situation in the
South. Whatever change for the better may
come will have its origin in the interests of the
North, and this change cannot now be fastened
by any public act of the Southern people
