i The history of the order in Homo

ATurning back to the issue of the
SP. c. ADVERTISER of April IS, 1859
years ago - we find q
zlengthy and admirable report of the
proceedings at the laying of the
Foundation stone of the cOmmOdiOus
7haIl ON Fort street, which remains to
gthis day a splendid proof of the vital
City and enthusiasm of the Odd Eel
slowship of earlier times i'll these
sislands. On Tuesday, April 26, 1889,
.the Odd Fellows Associations OF
sthese islands celebrated the fortieth
anniversary of the foundation OF the
Zorder in the United States, whence
sthey derived their charters. We are
Etold in that report that at haifpast

awas filled with q large audience of
Sthe residents, the Rev. Mr.. Corwin
delivered a sermon from the follow
ling text: Ecclesiastes iv., and 10
1.-TWO are better than one because they
shave a good reward for their labor.
sFor if they fall, the one will lift up
z his fellow; but woe to him that is
salone when he falleth, for he hath
mot another to help him up"
THE SERMON.
Mr.. CorWin said the Odd Fellows
zhad requested him to deliver a SER
mon, and not a secular discourse, as
she thought they would have done.
His subject was: "Odd Fellowship; its
fright uses" Men of all classes, call
Eings, creeds and nations are clasped
within the golden links of Friend
ship, Love and Truth" Sects and
distinction of place and rank are lost
sight of in this and kindred associa1
.tions. This community was peeu-
liarly the proper ground for the oper-
lations of such an association. Here
were men of all countries, from the
pushing, driving Yankee, the firm
and persevering Englishman, the|
steady German, to the light and vOla-
tile Frenchman. All these could
meet as Odd Fellows without distinc-
ton of country. Here were different
sects of religious belief. The order
did not interfere with these, but was
calculated to soften what otherwise
would be asperities. Here, too, were
the hard-fisted mechanics and the
These must meet on the
same level. God, said the preacher,

Pulpit AIIusiOns to the Death of
Queen Emma.
Rev. z. c. Oggel, pastor of the Bethel
Union church, conducted the services
there yesterday. In the morning, the text
was the 18th verse of the 2lst chapter OF
Johns Gospel, Lowest Thou Ne -
A practical question, the pastor said, for
old and young TO consider. This ques-
ton was put by the risen Savior to Peter.
|It was an acknowledged fact, that men
ought to inquire into their actions, as to
whether they are just and right. But
they are under even greater obligation to
examine the disposition of their minds to-
ward God.
The preacher then developed these
points: Jesus Christ is fairer and greater
than all the sons of men, and worthy of
all love. Love to Him must be love of
the heart; it must be expressing, sincere.

After depositing the box in its
place, the Deputy Grand poured a
,tumbler of water on the stone, say
ing: "In Friendship lay this stone,
earnestly praying that while it re-
-tains it's place among its fellows in
the firm wall, the brethren who as
semble here may be as firmly bound
in the bonds of friendship,
cordial and sincere" Flowers were
then strewed on it, accompanied by
these words: "In Love [ lay this
stone, earnestly praying that as it
underlies and supports the edifice, SO
may love lie at the bottom OF our
hearts, and support the whole super
structure of our lives" Three blows
were then struck upon it by the
Deputy, who added: "In the name
of Benevolence and Charity lay this
stone. And may God in His mercy
grant that it may never be removed
as long as benevolence and charity
are dear to the hearts of men,"
The stone, which had been hOisted
up by a derrick, was then laid in it's
place with mortar by the mason and

At meeting of the salvation army in

captain, read letter from the queen to
Mrs. Booth concerning the proposed work
of the army on saving young girls from
vice. Her majesty in referring to the pro-

age of consent from II to Is years, says she
feels deeply on the subject but, acting un-

an opinion on the measure because it is
matter before parliament.
