THE WORLD ON GEN. GRANT
From the World, May 81, 1861

It was possible for Grant,
after his failure ITO fight it out on one
line'' in his advance of 1864 upon Rich
mond, to lavish the lives Of thousands
of American soldiers and to expend
hundreds of thousands of dollars Of the
nations treasure upon new campaign,
and SO finally wear and worry down the
strength of the rebellion which had al
ready been MORALLY wounded by Meade
at Gettysburg.

Gen. Grants history should teach us

by which great things arc accomplished
are here seen to have no necessary con-

Good Templars.

The Right Worthy Grand Lodge of
North American Good Templers, was in
session in this city during last week.
Delegates were in attendance from thirty
one States, Territories and PROVINCES
The membership numbers, we learn, not
less than 5000 The following officers
were elected for the ensuing year: j. A.
Orne, of Massachusetts, r. w. G. T.,
Miss Reed, OF. West Virginia, W. G. v.
f.. Mr.. Giles, of Wisconsin, w. G. Coun-
selor; j. A. Spencer, Of Ohio w. G. s.,
John Campbell, Of Missouri, w. G.
Treasurer.
We take the following mode of max
ing Good Templar from an exchange,
and members of the Order will at least
be amused at the process Of manufac-
ture, so different from their experience
at least, the imitation ceremonies are
quite different from the ordeal through
which we passed, at the first organization
of Lodge in this city, some years ago.
What the ceremonies are now those be-
longing to it can judge whether this ex-
position meets the case: IA chap who
was taken form a lager beer saloon,
where he got tight without knowing that
lager would intoxicate, was put thraugh
a course Of cold water treatment by the
Good Templars, few evenings since.
He peaches on the Templars, and gives
the following expose of their initiation
ceremony, for which, no doubt, he will
be put through another course of cold
water sprouts at the next meeting of
the lodge. In the first place the victim
for initiation is blinlfolded, bound hand
and foot, and thrown into a cider press
and pressed for five or ten minutes. This
is done for the purpose of clearing his
system of ''old drinks He is then
taken out Of the cider press by means
of a force pump gorged with cistern
water, after which sealing plaster is
put over his mouth and he is rolled in a
barrel four or five times across the
room, the choir at the same time singing
the cold water song. He is now taken
out of the barrel and hung up by the
heels till the water runs out through his
ears. He is then cut down and beau
tiful lady hands him glass of cistern
water. A cold water bath is then fur
nished him, after which he is showered
with cistern water. He is then made to
read the water works act ten times drink
ing glass of cistern water between each
reading. After which the old oaken
bucket is hung around his neck, and fif-
teen sisters with squirt guns deluge him
with cistern water. He is then forced to
eat peck, of snow, while the brothers
stick his ears full of icicles. He is then
run through clothes ringer, after which
he is handed glass of cistern water
and his boots filled with the same, and
he is laid away in a refrigerator. The
initiation is now almost concluded
After remaining in the refrigerator for
half an hour he is taken out and given
glass Of cistern water, run through a
clothes wringer, and becomes Good
Templar."
