CRYSTAL LODGE ANNINERsARY.--Last
evening was the fifth anniversary of Crystal
Lodge, X. of ii. of this borough, and the oc-
cason was rendered memorable by very in
teresting exercises. The large hall in which
the Lodge meets was well tilled-somc two
hundred members and invited guests being
present. Dictator DR.. ID. l.. PRATT, was
master of ceremonies. After singing the
opening ode of the Order, Rev Doctor STEW
ART offered prayer, which was followed by
an address of welcome. couchcd in most ap-
propriate and fitting words, by the Dictator
Rev. &. III. WRIGHT delivered carefully
prepared address, descriptive of the Order,
its aims and objects, and was listened to with
attention and evident interest by The breth-
rem and guests. Past Dictatoa BOWMAN, of
Loyal Sock Lodge, being in the audience,
made some timely remarks. There was sin
cerc regret expressed on account of the indis-
position of Brother KIrTRIDGE, which pre-
vented him from giving an interesting history
of Crystal Lodge; no one is better qualified
for such an office, as Mr.. X. has always taken
deep interest in everything pertaining to
the order and lodge, and is probably better
posted on the subject than any other member
in this section. Mr.. s. w. RODGERS gave
some interesting statistics and information,
and read Il beautiful little poem founded
on the mystic monogram, 80. NJ. A." But
the most eloquent and convincing arguments
to the great and good work being accomplish
ed and the rapid growth of the benefcent or
der, were the figures on the walls, proclaim
ing in golden characters that over $2,170, 900
has been paid to the widows and orphans of
deceased brothers; that in seven years 1000
lodges have been instituted, with an aggre-
gate membership of 10000. In five yesrs Crys-
to lodge has grown from ten members to
sixty.
Mrs. BALDWIN and Miss SMITH kindly adj
ded to the pleasure of the audience by eXhibi-
tiens of their vocal powers. They are both

WASHINGTON, March 9.-Ths Senate
yesterday received q message from the
President in response to tho resolution
calling for the correspondence respecting

American control. The United States
cannot consent to the surrender OF this
control to any European power or to any
combination OF European powers. II
the existing treaties between the United
States and other nations, or II the rights
Of the sovereignty Of the property OF

this policy. Q contingency which 10

corporations or citizens OF other coun.
tries In such an enterprise must In .
great degree look for protection to one
or more Of the great powers OF the world.
No European power car intervene for
such protection without adopting meas.

The wound inflicted Ia necessarily q
very dangerous one, and the only won.
der IL that any top OF the head was left
on the body. The pistol was, however.
n small, singls-barreled one, carrying .
cartridge containing but little powder;
hence the singular result. The ball
ranged upward too much to reach the
base OF the brain. That this was the
case il evidenced BY the bullying out OF
his right eye and the settling Of the
blood under It.
The wound, however, bled profusely
and iu this way Lawrence came near

tell Why hs did the deed, but acknowl.

the cause. Yet the deed surprised
every one; for almost any . would
