sides against the Catholic Church by the Ma

and opportune, especially because this sect,
long secret, has now unmarked itself 1t avows
it's designs, and in @ certain country, not un-
der the pretext of public rights, but in it's own
name docs guilty battle with the Church, 1t
is useful, because the nefarious character of

perhaps many members who do not know the
secret mysteries will now withdraw. What
is particularly useful is the perspicacity with
which You demonstrate to all attentive minds
the real tendency of the taking words, Fra
ternity and Equality which have deceived
and seduced SO many, and the true origin and
object of the much. boasted liberties of con-
science, of public worship, and of the press.
After reading your work, nobody can doubt
that all this came from Freemasonry to over

the Church has wisely condemned those who
practise and defend such liberties. 1t is mani

GUAR MoNRY.-Cheap money means a
robbers paradise 1t means that we buy
at fancy prices, imagine that we are rich
and run into debt. Every scheme has "mil-
lions in it," In faucied wealth and wild
hope, we give bonds. We want dollars
to-day, and agree to pay dollars tomorrow,
cost what they may. We have no right to
grumble. But finally the bubbles break, as
bubbles will, The charming days of cheap
money bare every breast in turn TO the knife
Of Shylock. The lender laughs As he fore
closes his mortgages, and trusts that our
great American finauciers the invaluable
friends OF the poor man-may give us one
more trial OF cheap money. lie likes to lend
in flush times, with gold at $50, and to call
in his loans in hard times, with gold at 10.
lie prays for more money, aud another fools
