esllent matter for the craft, and every Mason

bic is notice of the just published Report Of
the Proceedings of the two Grand Conclaves
a, keokuk. Sept. lIth, 1866, and at Daven-
port, Oct. 18th, 1857. From it we MIKE this

procession Of the laree array Of Sir Knights,
from the agnihcentald admirably convenient

courtesy. the Sir Knights of Keokuk, and Of
| the public and private entertainments given
the visiting Sir knights; we do not trust our
self to speak in detail. for The simple reason
tina, our space is limited. They are dimly
photographed in the proceedings in question.
The Fourth annual eonclave was the best OF
the annual series, and the proceedings were
OF character TO reflect honor upon Iempar
Masonry. II was matter of great regret
to US that we were not permitted, by reason
of business harrassnents and travel deten-
TONS to be present during the session. We
only arrived during the closing hours The
address of Grand Commander I.eftingweH
was an excellent one, andefhe business done
was well done, as appesrs from the record
now under review. The proceedings are
quite voluminons. We are much pleased to
note The fact hat the (almos.) .f7y years OF
Masonic service rendered by Grand Cons
mander l.efngwel, are appropriately COM
mented upon by the committee on the Grand
Commanders address. At the head OF this
committee was Sir Knight Il F. Bower, the
able and energetic leader of Damascus Com
mandery.

Very intense excitement WAS created
throughout Keokuk buiness circles ys1esr-
day morning BY the announceusat that Ne
First National Bank had suspended. Quite :
crowd collected in front Of the Bank - soon
q the rumor became current. II VA TOO
true. Amid the excitement and Wild rumors
consequent upon an event unexpected By
the public. and deplorable, We can gather
nothing definite enough to make an accurate
showing Of the real extent Of the losses, and
we prefer not to give currency to mere ru-
mors. twill be some time before the real
condition Of the Bank is known. An Inspec
tor, appointed BY the Government viii come
and settle it's affairs. Then showing Of the
| Bank liabilities, assets and operations can
/ be made.
Ii appears that the stockholders will be the
largest loosers, and IS the Bank has had
heavy deposit account, its Liabilities must be
proportionally large. What the amount Of
! available resources on hand with which tc
meet the liabilities, can only be ascertained
with reliable certainty by actual investigation
Of The affairs of the Bank. In the mean
time we shall not inaur the risk Of misleading
our readers, by giving publicity TO unauthor
| lied or l.>founded statements Of parties in
terested in behalf of the Bank or excited
against it.
