INFLUENCE.
There does not live upon earth a man
that does not possess the moral power Of
affecting for veal or woe the destiny Of
another man, unless it might be the one

possible for the system to be just what
it would have been, hid net those intlu-
dnces originated. As MasOns, we are
constantly creating ell ments OF moral
power and influence, to qualify anjaso-
nisiic elements. One of the doctrines
of natural philosophy is, chat action
and reaction are equal" and can be il

and that its influence will be eternal,
and in consequence of these conditions,
