Beneyolenoe of Masonry.

One of the characteristics ofour so-called
Jewish Lodges j. the efforts they make TO
establish and maintain benevolent funds.
We do not wish it to be thought that there
is no such provision for misfortune made i'm
other Lodges; but the few that owe their
support chiefly to Israeitish brethren, in
most cases, can boast Of being far in advance
of their fellows, As regards the relief they
are able to give, without touching current
receipts, to distressed members. With the
object Of adding TO the fund established iu
connection with the Lodge Of Israel, No.
,502, which meets at Liverpool, the mem
bers have during the period of the Lodges
existence, given an annual ball, deyOtng
the proceeds to the benevolent fund.
During the year 1878 the income Of the
three Masonic charitable Institutions from
donations, subscriptions, and all other
sources, amounted to E4O3l2 As. Sd. Out
Of this sum the Royal Masonic Benevolent
Institutions obtained the largest amount,
viz: e14,SS0 >. I'd, for the second year in
succession heading the list. The Royal
Masonic Institution for girls took the second
place with EI2 $50 is. Sd, while the Royal
Masonic Institution for boys took the third
place with e12,jj The total amount for
the three institutions for 1873 was about
e. 900 less than was contributed in 1877,
but it was very much larger than was eN-
pctbCN3 NlACiA eAt LllG bN iAlAAnb u lt1F yaAA
public charity was extensively diverted 10
other channels. The Masonic body, how
ever, although giving literally to non-Ma-
sonic appeals, strongly supported their own
charities, which in 1878 only fell short by
e., 900 of the most successful year on record,
1877. The Benevolent Institution has be-
tween 800 and 100 annuitants on its bOOB;
the boys school clothes, maintains, and
educates about 220 boys; and the girls
school over 200 girls. In the year 1873 the
Lodge of Benevolence connected with the
Grand Lodge contributed E4,984 70 dis
tressed FreemasOns, and the widows and
orphans of deceased members This Lodge
meets every month. The largest amount
dispensed at any one meeting in 1873 was at
the December meeting, when EGO was
granted, and the smallest &C the August
meeting, when the sum voted was E2Jo-
The Fund of BenevOlence now amounts %

W orkers Wanted.

The Scientific American states that ga
larger shoe manufacturer of this State,
advertised in Boston and New York
for twenty-five shoe filters to work in
his factory, offering full current rates
ard steady work. The advertisement
brought one application. About the
same time Boston firm advertised for
a book keeper, and the next days mail
brought three hundred and forty-seven
answers. During the same month an
advertisement for a clerk in a Detroit
paper brought $50 applications the first
day and greater number of letters and
personal applications the next day. An
advertisement for week in the same
city, calling for a good carpenter,
brought only four replies"
Why is this thus Is the system of
eCucation sound one that makes peo-
pie discontinued with manual labor and
inspires every person with desire and
purpose to be something else than
mechanic? The excellent journal from
which we have quoted pursues the sub
Jet in these words:
1t is altogether probable that in any
city in the land an adver-
tisement for bookeeper or retail clerk
will bring fifty times as many replies as
an advertisement for fair workman at
any trade. 1t is also probable that in
any and every city the average earnings
of clerks are nowhere near so large as
the earnings of workmen of average
skill in the various trades.
Further, it is fairly certain that,
with equal capacity, industry and thrift,
the young man who learns any trade
will achieve a reasonable competence
sooner than young man who sticks to
clerking while the chance for material
" improving ones condition are more
in the trades than behind the
counter or at the desk.
Why is it, then, that the boys all
want to be clerks? Why is it that in
telligent parents encourage them in
looking for chance to "get into bust
ness" and in looking down on mechani-
cal nmployments-as though there could
be any calling more wretchedly me-
chanical than average clerking? Why
is it that teacher almost invariably
train their pupils to Clock above" me-
pursuits.
What the country wants now is work
industrious, thrifty
workmen; men who can do skillfully
the work that waits for the doing
who can invent new means and better
processes for developing the crude re-
sources of the land, and for converting
crude matter into DEMONSTRATING and
wealth. Mere clerk and
record keepers are at adiscount. There
are too many of them. And the pro-
LESSONS, so called, are almost equally
with men who have nothing to
do. There never was a time when
ability to do something real and praeti-
cal was worth so much as now. Yet
our young men swarm after clerkships.
Why is it?

gent men in the North going TO do about
1t? Will you insist on keeping the South
solid bysdemanding their seIf-lishonor, and
then insist upon making the North solid
because the South refuses self-degradation
at your demand
'.Well, suppose you succeed? Suppose
you succeed, by your absurd and impOssi-
bic stories OF unnatural outrages in the
South in making every man in the North
hate and distrust every man in the South I?
Will that break the solid South Will that
allay sectional strife? Will that bring peace
to the country, prosperity to the Nation, or
perpetuity to the Union? | have always
believed the secessionists were the most
damaging enemies the South ever had.
But they did not intend damage They
intended to relieve the conscience of the
North on the subject Ofslayery, and preserve
their own property on their own re-
spOnsibility. They were mistaken, but
they were not traitors. | equally believe
that the Republican party is the most dan
gerous enemy the Union ever had. II
lives on sectionalism. 1t teaches the North
to hate the South, and compels the South to
hate the North. If the people of the North
are not capable of seeing the end of such
policy, they are incapable and unworthy of
free government. The Southern people lost
fortune, fame and power by the war. Here
and there a man may be found who, by
reason of his connection with the war, has
reached positions for which he would never
otherwise have been thought of, but there
are very few such. 1t would be unnatural
for such a people to desire further sectional
strife. But at the North there are thous-
ands Ofmen who have made fortunes by the
war, and many have made fame and power
Many are adulated who, but for the mere
luck of war, would never have been known.
MilliOnaIres are on every hand, who but for
the war would be paupers. 1t is unnatural
for men who have made 50 much by the war
not to regret its occurrence nor to deprecate
another? May not very many others who
see these examples of war fortunes natural
ly desire to be willing to have like good
luck? Is it strange that leaders who have
grown rich and powerful by sectionalism
should desire to make a solid North against
a solid South, and thus perpetuate
their fortunes and power? But it
will be strange if an intelligent peo-
pie can not penetrate such a transparent
purpose and prevent its accomplishment
| hope and believe the present will prove
a year of purgation to the Democracy,
and cleansing the party of its internal
feuds and its running after issues, will recall
it to sound principles and a healthy condi-
ton for 1880. If so, we shall be able to
present man for the Presidency whose
will be an honor to the party
whose election will be an honor to the peo-
pie, and whose wise and patriotic admins
tration will inspire confidence in good men,
will maintain the national honor and the
national credit and advance both; from
whose presence rogues viii retire abashed
and under whose influence sectionalism
viii wither forever. Will my good friend,
Mr.. Chittenden for whom ! have the high
est personal regard support such 4 man ?
Very truly yours,
