morning at 10 O'Clock, Grand Master
Bloant in the East, and morning, af-
ternoon and igh$ sessions were held,
much work of Importance TO tho order
being done.
Tue committee on Periodic ioals rspor-
ted Recommending the Maeonic Oode,
the oxford Friend, and the Masonic
Journal, of Greensboro, which report
was adopted.
The following officers were appoint
ed by the Grand Master for the ensuing
masonic year:

At night the report of the committee
on the Orphan Asylum was read aud
adopted, after some amendments.
This report embraced much interee.
ting matter in connection with the
two Asylums which have been boun-
ded by the Grand Lodge. 1t heartily
embossed the labors of Superintendent
Mills, stating that under his energetic
and effective workings che object Of
she Grand Lodge in establishing these
institutions had been fnIly carried out
and they had been productive of great
good to the orphans of the State. The
sum of So 900 was donated to the Asy-
lums for the next year, and an effort
was put on foot to create an endow-
ment fund for them. The Superinten-
dent WAS empowered to made such ar
rangements as might best be effected
for the sending TO school four of the
orphens each year, several schools in
the State having offered to educate
>ome OF these children, the Asylum
furnishing them olo5hing and books.
The discussion upon shis subject
elected the fact from ME- Mills that
already several of the most intelligent
children from The Oxford Asylum were
being educ .ted at differens schools.
aud this, two, without any cost to the
Asylum, friends coming forward to
5hsir help and defIaying all costs other
than the tuition given by the schools.
His.Ohject is to fit these Intelligent
children as far rs possible te fill other
poe lions than shat of servants, to make
them teachers iu the institution itself
or to occapJ more exalted positions in
society they could otherwise be OBJ
taiued.
TIE installation of the newl y-elected
officers took place at a late hour last
night. whan the Lodge adjourded to
meat this morning at 10 O'Clock. Il
will probably adjourn sine die this
evening.
The dedication of the Lodge room
was postponed until to-day.

had the second largest uumber should
be omitted. Senators Ransom, and

and Scales, of this State arc graduates

and yet after naming almost every
high school in The country. these gen.

This may be and is a small matter,
bat it is the repetition OF these email
matters that wears out our patience.
If t*ese statistics were of sufficient in
terest TO be published they should be
at least correct--certainly such giaring
injustice should Uot be done our mem

difficulties, i'll the course of which he said:

way OF removing these difficulties By legisla-

course shall feel bound to pursue in references
to the matter, in the event OF no action ty Con-
gress ut this time. Subject to any satisfactory
arrangement that may be made BY the parties
to the controversy, which, OF all things. is this
most desirable, it will be my duty, SO far as Il
may be necessary for me to act, to atlhare to
that government heretofore recognized by me-,
Fo iaage OF elections and qualifications OF it,

the House to judi re OF the election and qa,liscs-

me, ought to be respected. I am extremely
anxious to avoid any appearance of undue III

differs from me as to what ought to be done,
respectfully urge IT'S immediate decision to
that effect; otherwise shall feel Obligated as
far us [ can, by the exercise of legitimate An

EVENING FACTS AND KUMoRs.
The failure OF Duncan, Sherman y Co
which was announced soon aft6r ii O'CLOCK,
caused the most intense excitement on the
street. The direct cause of the suspension
has not as vet been ascertained, and various
rumors are afioat, among which Is one
to the effect that their difficulties have
been precipitated by the failure OF
Messrs. A. & W. Collie, OF london. Another
report says that their principal CORES
pondents abroad were the Union Bank, OF
London, and Barring Brothers. In 1873 ar
rangemeDts were made with the Barring
firm by which Duncan, Sherman q Com
pany were to be protected. 1t is supposed
that the withdrawal of that protection this
failure. They had opened their counting
house when a cable telegram from London
decided the firm TO suspend. 1t causes no
little surprise to learn that when a house OF
first class could get paper discounted
at four per cent, the firm of Duncan,
Sherman & Co. was rated at six per cent.
The firm. or at least some OF
its members, have been promi-
nently identified with unfortunate
railway enterprises, such as the Erie, Allan
tic & Great Western, and others of similar
character. It has transpired that the foreign
bills of the firm will amount To over one
hundred and twenty thousand pounds ster
ling. A private cable dispatch announces
the failure of the Union Bank of London,
the largest Joint banking firm in the city,
and one with which Duncan, Sherman q
Co. transacted a large portion of their for
