i" '' 'titt .?:b "4"' tle;ant lud NasAhgfioni a 'SCRET SOCIETIES. This seeius toee the-age of "secret sio cieties." In some'shape or other they are springing up ii every quarter of our sand, increasing in nt'rebers and usefulness, and If f4eprTeadit the same proportin ian. the next five, as they have done during the last five years, there will not be a town of any magnitude' ist the country, that -will not rejotce in-itLode;" "Tent" or "Di tvisiob:': We know that theextrordinlary rofth $'paoiperttY of these "secret to dera" have. awakeeed a spirit of opposi tion in eerthift 'minds, whose- greatest ob - jeetion after all is a natural tor unnatural, we know, not *hich 'o'call it) dread and horror of ,anything which is '-secret." The very name of "secret societies" never tails to arousein the minds of those good people, certain visions of red-hot gridirons, ghastly skeletons. and mousier goats, to say nothing of hatrio voWs and bldod cord ing oaths. Now we have the honor of belonging to lve different secret societies, viz: 'Odd Fellows," the "Rechabites," the 'Sons of Tengpbtatice-," a "Temple o0 tionor," and last, though inot least, the. "Connubial Order," all of these orders, especially the last (of *bich we have the honor of being sometiies chief in com mand) have secrete, two or three of which we are now about to unfold. The first is the case of a young mechanic, who joined the Sons of Temperance about 3 months ago. He was then in good health and conditioun and bid fair to live as long as his neighbbrs ; his initiation fee was three dollars. lie had beets a member but.one little month, when; by accident, he recei ved an injury, which in a few days resul ted in-his death. He has left a young wife and fivesmall-childreito mour the loss of their chief staff and support. MHe wiis.an honest, temperate, hard working, laboring man, yet the wants of his grow ing family had emptied his pockets as fast as his industry could fill them, and in spite of his efforts, he died a.poor man. By the rules.of the Order which he had joined, he was not entitled to eny benofits until he had been a member 'six months; yet be diet. as we have stated in about one month after his joining-eonsequently he nor his family had ahy claim upon the "secret so eiety ;": but what did the members of the society do under these circumstances? Did they avail themselves of 'heir privilege and withhold assist ance ?. No, verily : But by some hocas pocus, secret mama veriug, which the rest of the wqrld knows nothing about, they watched him by tight, and visited him by day duting his sick ness, and when bI died, they preseafed to the- widow the lauidsote little stum of $30. We bate no but doubt they w'ere prompt ed to the gift by some "secret" feelings 'of charity and sympathy. Another singttldr ease occurred -last ~summer; A poor man was taken sick in ufWrtf Street, sometime in September last; he lted'a wife and two children. A echabiie" who was prowl-. fog round, learned that-the sick man was a stranger and in want, and like a true ichistian, called upon him, and in course. .of cooversation .learned that he had but a few months'before removed . to this city from New York, and that be hadhbeen for-, erly a membet of the: "Sons of Tem pera'nte" in the letter city, b'u owing to poverty. had not been -able to pay his.as' seasments, and consequently, had no legal eclaim upon the Order for "sick money." ,The "'REchabite"' very-'secretly" put his band into his pocket aid relieved th'e poor man's necessities. and thenr made known his sad case to the "Sons ofrTemp~erance" in this city, who made a contributlion a. mongst themselves, and carried it to the sick brother. One "Son of Teimperance,"' -the ole hearted "Razor Strop man," gave' the poor mn a ten dollar bill on hi's -first visit, besides ge'erwI smeller sums at subsequent periods. 'I'he "Sons of Tem -.perance" in New York were apprised of ttie sittiationof their defaulted, yet falter ing lbother. and sent on wor'd'to1,bb 'Sons' in this city, to take .all' piostil'e care of him, and-they (the N. Y. "Sons)" would pay all the bills. This was done faithfully; the "Sons" of Bostotn watched wsiih him, nursed him, and when the poor strathger' died, they buried him. When- the N. Y. "Sons" heard of his death thaey sent thirty dollars to the widow ; please to recollect -that the decdased brother head tno legal claim for assistance, as himsassesstudenta Hiad not been previously paid, and all the above named attentions and girts were * voluntary, prompted no doubt by those "secret" feelings which "secret societies" go often indulge in. We will mention another case, in which the "ber.efits" wre legal, and the brot her -was lawftrzlytelititled to all the attentions whieb he received. We mention this cir cumstance, however, only ro- show some of the advantages of belongitng to these - "Secret Orders-" A young man aged 21 joined the "Rechabites," about a year since in this cit; last fall he' muv'ed to New Yorke; where he arrived an entire stranger, but'aeon'rrtade himself known to *- the "'Rechabires;" who;- upon the recomn *-dation of the breihr'en in Boston, receiv'ed --him into their "Order." In a few weeks he e was taken down sick- with the consump , tion, which so prostrated him, as to retn der -the- mout'asaidions attenrions of the -brethren'uecessary. He lingered on un til Sundayi the 8th ofrdMarc, when' he' -'yielded hi* pirivtothe God who gave it. During his-idng-ansd painful sickness. eve --ry thing was done by his- brethren of the "Order" to render his situation- as comifor table as possible. The bear medi'cal~ aid was provided for himy and when at last he died, he was buried as a Christian should be buriedr and the tears of sympathy anJ love were sprinkled 'upon- his grave. Now we ask the- opposers of "secret societies" what would have been done with the young man referred to. had lhe not been a mem ber of such an associatint . Would they, ;he':opposers) have taken care of him, idburied.- him? No, they would not. ~Teoung man would have been'convey the- alms house, where, as a poor, -'-- itifriendlias pauper, he would have tnihsiemin'wouldhave a resting place in . Biter-'s field. We have said enoughbat- present upon this subje,.'; we leave the asboire.fact'stod-.'consideration of those who are 'if~saidfifafsecret socie ela.."leavirng themr.to-jndge as to the char. aren to wateb ith the 'ickaiminisler to the wants of the poor, bury the dead,.and bestowvoluntary gifts of thirty dollars to bereaved Widows. True Fiendship--We are fo- .ned for happiness. Within eve heart .8 im planted a desire for the gra...ications of life. The child, the youth and the aged upon she brink of life, all seek happinesa. Nature can-in a degree contribute to this effect. The balmy-air of spring, the rich foliage of summer and- autumn, and the cooling streams of water, all yield a. pleasant in Suence; but these combined, cannot render man'colteuted and happy. He wishes for some congenial spirit, to share with him his joys andsorrowa; for some one, whose hopes and desires flow in the same broad channel as his own. Such an one is not always found. ' Trte friendship is a rare plant-it is a gem well worth possessing. It smoothes life's ruffled sea, shedding its lustre upon our pathway,and len ling its in Euenice.to sweeten our pilgrimage through Iife. Friendship is divine--it came front [leaven,as a eit eamlet of glory, casting its brilliant rays over ur hearts. But who ale our true Friends ? Many profess at iachment. And then betray the confidence eopdied in then. Who then are our friends? Not those, who to-day are smiles, io-mor ro* frowns ; those who profess to love when prosperily smiles upon us, and in adversity's dark hoartforSake us ; but they who in every condition remain unchange able. They who kindly scheer our droop ing hearts-whd tkatc tis (in sickness and in health-whd gently chide w hen 're go astray, leading ds back to the Oath of virtue--they are indeed friends. Happy that person who finds one to enter into his feelings. and appreciate the affection lav ished upon him ; yes, blessed is that one who possesses the richest earthly treasure -a" true friend.--Boston Star. The Dying Man.-It is a very terrible and amaziug thing to see a man die, and solemnly take his last leave of the world. The very circumstances of dying men are apt to strike us with horror. To bear such a man, how sensibly he will speak ui the other world, as if be were just come from it; rather than going to it ; how severely he will condemn himself for the fdlly aInd wickedness of his life; with what passion he will wish he had lived better, and had served God mate sincerely ; how seriously li eill resolve upon a better life, if God would be pleased to raise him up, and try him but once more; with what zeal and earnestness be will commend to his best friends and nearest relations a religionu and virtuous course of life, as the only ihing thgt will rhitditer comfort to them when they'dotie to be in his condition, Such discourses as these are very apt to move and al'ect men for the time, and to stir up in them very good resolutions, whilst the present fit and impression lasts ; but he, cause these sights are very freguent, they have seldom iuy great 'permanent effect upon iean. They consider that it is a very common case, and sinners take example and encouragement from one another ; ev cry one is affected for the preseut, few are so, effectually convinced as io betake themselves to a better course.-Ttllotton. Upright Alen.--We love your upright men. Pull them this way and the other, and they only bend, but never break. Trip them down, and ;n a trice they are on their feet again. Bury them in the inod, and in an hour they would be out nd bright. You cannot keep them. Mst noble charaicters 1 But fot these, the world *ould soon dlegenerate. They are the salt of the~earth. Who but they start any noble projects. They build our cities and rear our matnufactures. They whiteit the ocean with their sails, and hlacken the heavens with the smoke of their steam ars. Biestsing~s on such'! Look to them, young men, and talis courage. Imtate their example and catch the spark of their eergy. Without life, what are you good for i Do you mean to be drones forever ? f so, you better speak so Mr. Noyes to1 make your coffin. We'll he bound to say he will make it for half price, and bury you in the bargain.-Portland Bulletin. The Right.-Always pursue what you have reason to think is the right course, wit hout regard to ease on the one hand and interest on the other. Go straight forwar d, determined to breast the floods of iniquity, or perish in the ef'ort. Never htay with the mbltiiudis through fear of worldly poliy, abd-never listen to the advice of' those who, rotten at heart move on with the popular current. Feel that you have something to do ini the world, and go about it forthwith taking Truth fur your guide, and Virtue for your companion. Then you will have nothing to fear.
