U4SONRY IN PHJLADELPHI4.

The Masonic fraternity are still busted with
taking possession of their new temple in Phil
adelpha. The sedate city of Quakers and
small manufacturers has been turned for a
week into an encampment, glittering with the
silver and black insignia of the Templars and
the banners of Knights of the Red Cross.
No doubt, to a good many people, the whole
of this show of symbolism like the purple
and lace of the Catholic priesthood and the
ropes and black gowns of the nuns, is
unworthy any purpose beyond amusement. 1t is
difficult to keep ones gravity when Simmons,
the grocer, suddenly breaks from behind the
counter, with trappings of black velvet and
plumes,;into Most Worshipful Sir Knight; OF
when our chum Jack Story, leaves his ledger OF
quiet little euchre party to blossom into a
Defender of the Holy Sepulchre, particularly
when his defense, as far as we can see, con-
sists in going occasionally to club of jolly
good fellows. and eating a supper for which
DelmOnico or Augustin has catered. 1t is easy
for outsiders to jeer at any decorated pro-
cessiOn, such as that which took place IN
philadelphia last week.
Nothing is so ludcrous as a form, provided
we ourselves have no association with it; but
if we have we hold to nothing with such
tenacity or reverence, unless it be the features
we inherited. The lace and tiDsel of the
priest may be ridiculous in our eyes, but they
are not the less associated with all that thou
sands of devout believers hold sacred. The
Jew butcher in the next market kills his beef
after fashion prescribed to him four thou
sand years ago; to US 1T Is but childish
whim-to him it is a sign of the glory of his
race, of the days when Moses was their law
giver and Jehovah dwelt among them. AS to
Masonry. we may assert that its ceremonies
are puerile that, like all powerful Organiza-
tons, it has at times been debased into a
political engine and used, especially in the large
cities, to bad ends by bad men, and be ex-
pressing the opinion of many. But it is no less
true that thousands of the purest most
clear-sighted and most honorable men
in this and every country belong to
its membership; that now, as in past
ages, Its apparent motive IL simply to uphold
the brotherhood of humanity. We can have
none but friendly words for craft which con-
sistently and constantly has exhibited the prac-
teal if not theoretical idea of Christianity,
and been faithful to the orphan, the widow,
and the poor. But little fault can be found
with any beneficiary society which insures
O certain aid in time of sickness or death
without the degradation OF almsgiying.
Masonry, as even outsiders must confess, adds
10 the practical advantages of such an organlza-
ton the soldty and power of great antiquity
and the attraction of varied and splendid
symbolism; and that no attraction Is SO pow
erful III drawing converts AS this the Roman
Church has proved centuries ago. While the
lower grades of this Order enforce charity of
word aud act. the higher, we believe. are
closed to men who do not believe and are not
willing 10 practice the faith Of Christ.

DRF4LCATIONS.-ONE LESS

In enumerating several instances of late de-
falcations, The TRIBUNE of Saturday alluded
to DR.. Thomas Carlton as guilty of such an
offense, and referred to reports to be found in
other columns. The editorial of which the
brief statement alluded to was part was
based on information received by letter on
Friday morning. Careful inquiry into the
charges revealed their absolute untruth, and
they were suppressed. The editorial refer
ence should have been suppressed also but
by one of those perverse accidents which are
the terror of night editors, the article slipped
in, without the removal of the half
dozen lines relating to these stories
against DR.. Carlton, which we had
found to be false. Their publication unin-
territorial as it was) was a serious wrong 10
DIR. Carlton, for which we endeavor to make
amends by giving this morning the results of
the inquiries we had made. They fully dis
prove the charges. In one sense the mishap
by which we were led into dong a great in
justice to Dr. Carlton is fortunate, for il gives
him and his friends occasion and opportunity
TO make defense against whispered calum-
MES which have never before taken such
shape that they could be answered.
We need not say how sincerely we regret
this accident, and we hope that all those
papers which have copied our reference to the
