NATIONAL GRANGE.

The National Grange closed its session at
Louisville, Ky, on the evening of Dec. I'd.
The following resolutions were introduced
and adopted during the closing scenes of its
long and laborious session:
Resolved, That in the sense of the National
Grange the following suggestions are appli-
cable to the present wants OF our order:
As the closing scenes of this long and labor
ious session approach as the memory of
previous sessions and many glorious
achievements return to us, and as we look
forward to the future we are deeply inn
pressed with the truth that we must at all
times preserve a vital spirit Of fraternity be-
tween oranges and individual members OF
this order, to best maintain its vigor, success
and prosperity. The nature Of our solemn
obligation should ever be borne in mind.
We have promised to aid and not to injure
onr fellow-patrons. Therefore, the good
name of the brother OF sister should be as
precious to each one of us as our OWL.
Harshness has no place in the principles of
orr order. Its mission is one of peace, gem
tleness and goodwill. Therefore, in the
discussion or application of our principles
wv hold that all asperity and violence are
out of place, and should ever be avoided by
our members. We also hold that the inter
probation of any law of our order which
works a manifest injustice to any member is
at fault, and in all applications of our laws
and regulations we should always remem-
Der that the grange is organized for the
comfort, convenience and welfare of our
worthy members. We trust that our men,
bers everywhere will renew their plight Of
fealty to the noble brotherhood, endeavor-
ing especially to live up to the following
principles of the declaration of our pur-
poses, viz:
We shall constantly strive to secure entire
harmony, goodwill and vital brotherhood
among ourselves, and to make our order
perpetual. We shall earnestly endeavor to
suppress personal, local, sectional and natu-
raj %preiudices, all unhealthy rivalry, all self
ish ambition.
These are not idle words, but vital princi-
pies, which will give life and permanence to
every grange throughout the land if our
members will but emulate each other to ex-
emplify them in their words and actions.
Mr.. Aiken. of South Carolina, offered the
following:
Resoiped, That the currency question is
rapidly becoming a political question, and
therefore should not be entertained by this
grange.
\ resolution requiring the Secretary to
have printed $4,000 copies of the proceed
ings of this session aud send of same to each
State Grange as many copies as there were

direction of the Executive Committee, and

CRITICISM ON THE ORDER
The report was adodted.

CRITICISM ON THE ORDER.
Many persons who are Patrons seem to
think that those who criticize anything be-
longing to the order are committing an I'M
pardonable offense. If the order has its
faults and imperfections, or if members do
not act properly, there is certainly room for
advice and sometimes for a %scolding. Ii
would be as useless for any one to claim.
perfection for the order as for a Vatican
council to declare that the Pope is infalli-
BILE.
It is impossible that an organization that
has sprung into existence and increased SO
rapidly should also attain perfection at the
same time. Errors will neuessararily oc-
cur, both in plans and execution; men will
attain positions for which they are unfit,
and their administrations will be failures,
and do much harm to the order. 1t should,
therefore, be unwise and improper to screen
such persons or their mlsdeeds from the
proper punishment by an apology or by ap-
plying gag law.
The other is Democratic in its teaching
and tendency, and the Democracy supposes
the will of the people to be exercised, and
the popular will to be law and he who
would attempt to make the order an aIistoc-
racy or a monarchy will find himself rudely
set aside, and no matter how important his
past services or present power. 1t is no use
attempting to cover every defect arc flaw.
If it is there, that is an unpleasant fact, but
it is not healed by filling it with some soft
plaster. No, it is best to weld it again, even
should it require hot fire and sturdy blows
to do it. We want a fabric that shall pos
sess strength as well as ~beauty-one that
shall wear and endure, but if we all sit silent
when a wrong is committed, we consent to.
quackery and wrong; we even aid in its
demolition. The power of a State Master or
Lecturer, if used in an attempt to coerce
men into silence, will only be damaging to
the order, While fair, honest criticism will
only direct attention to weak points, which
may be remedied in time before an actual
flaw occurs.
There should be no aristocracy in the or
der, save that of merit; and while it may be
proper, as a mark of honor, to call a Past
Master by that title, it is not, in my opinion,
proper to make degrees unattainable by
every member of the order upon application
and payment of fees; in fact, there is no
need of any degree above the fourth, or, il
there is, let them belong to the subordinate
grange.
The order is formed for social, education
al and business purposes. All these do not

purpose, and the more we cumber it with
degrees and pharaphernalia, the more we
hinder its perfect working, and the further
we put off the results. We need not follow
any other order. Our duty is plain and sim
pie and the work too great to be burdenel
with forms and ceremonies.-Cor. american

THE COURTS.
From our Evening Edition of Yesterda

FfOm our Evening Edition Of Yesterday.
The Supreme Court this morning was en-.
gagged in reading opinions and it is probable
the whole day will be consumed, as there has
accumulated quite a number of undecided
cases.
In the District Courts there was little trans
piring, save ordinary cases, and as usual on
Mondays, the bar seemed rather disinclined
to 60 into the heavy business, but went at
what they had to do with something like pro-
test. The dockets of these courts are now
pretty well cleared off, SO that parties filing
suits now may anticipate speedy trial.

BosroS Nov. "a, 1875
The Massachusetts, State Temperance Alliance dis
tingushed itself in most disgracetul manner at itg
regular monthly meeting yesterday afternoon. TheI
matter OF the death of Vice President Wilson comngi
up, the Rev. Mr. Sargent offered the following resolu
tom
Resolved, That we have heard with deep regret Of
the decease of Hon. Henry Wilson, Vice President oq
the United States, which ensued the 22d inst at
Washington, d. G. that we, the Executive Committed
of the Massachusetts Temperance Alliance have ongl
recognized in the deceased devoted phanthropist al
strong friend and advocate of human liberty, purel
patriot, eminent statesman, and, above all an unial
erng practical supporter of temperance and consists
ent Chrstian that for the interest he manifested in
alliance, and member Of this Executive Board,
feel that have personally experienced great oss
In his decease at this time when his example, nauI
ence and counsel are so greatly needed.
Mr. H. D. Cushing, in speaking TO the resolution said
he thought it injury inflicted to speak OF the dead
that which was not true and Mr.. Wilson could mott
caim~ghat expressed in the resolution. Mr. Vlbl
bert said 'amen" to what Mr. Cushing had said, foN
there was much untruth in the resolution. He did
not consider him statesman He not unfaltering
temperance friend and had not been since 1867 when,
he could have gwen bugle blast for reform Belore
the elections he dumb sphinx. Mr.. Cham-
berlan thought that il the moral men OF Massachusetts,
could pass eulogstic resolutions to the deceased
did not know where they could be passed Mr. Sargent
considered the resolution taken In the light viewed by
the committee, consistent with the life that Isl
ended Mr. Moses Gragg thought IL the temperance
clause had been lett out he could have stood
up for the resolution Dr. Cornell thought the gentle-
lighting against misconception Of the LAM
guage used in the resolution. Mr. Faxon said:-.l
wish could pass resolution as regards every mans
death with good faith this resolutionl
relative to Mr. Wilson. Mr. Wilson may have gone tot
the side of policy sometimes, but will dispute
that he man OF great moral principles" Dr.
Miner suggested that the wording could be changed sol
as 10 show clearly that the temperance clause
related to his personal conduct
Finally the committee struck out the words ''pracA
tica supporter of temperance aud consistent Chris
tiann and as amended, the resolution was passed.,
there being one dissenting voice and all voting
