The Grand Lodgoe of the United Statea, which y closed its session at Indianapolis, is the organization exercising supreme power and Judsdiction over the Independent Order or Odd- TFeilows throughout the world. It is composed ‘of Grend Reprosentatives chosen by the Grsnd Lodges and Grand Encamp- * ments of tho several Btates, Territories, Kingdoms, sad Provinces whero this Order ox- fais. Itis the ultimate source of all authority, aod all and singular ihe powers vested in Grand and subordinate Lodges are ob- tsined by grant from this Sopreme Boar. Wheu it is remembered how vast is tie memberehip, resources, disbursements, extent, and influence of the Society, it is apparent that tLis body, exercising supreme judicial ng well 23 Jeguiative control, 18 potent in its infinenco wupon the civilization of the age. It is but jus- tice to this body, howerer, to eay that its legis- Jation bas been eminently wise and conservative, Baviog grauted large and liberal powers to grand bodies, it treats them as vested rights and seapects them as sacred. The present Graod Lodge is largely composed of men of ability and experience, maay of whom oocapy bonorsble positions, both political and social, in their respective jurisdictions. THE HON. . J. DURHAM, M. C. from Eentucky, is the prosent M. W. Grand Sire. He is a gentlemen of great oxecu- tive abitify, ripe culture, aud an mccomplished puliarzentanan, genizl withal, courteous, and poesesses that simplicity of character and affable ‘manners which dstingnishesthe true gentieman. THE HO¥. JAMES L. RIDGELY, of Baltimore, for neariy thirty-five years Grand Carresponding aud Recording Secretary, is a born diplomat, 2 most accomplished and versa- tila writer, sagacious, cautions, far-sighted, pos- sessing that rare combination of characteristics which would render one a successtal Primo ilin- Ister ; conscientious and - untiring in the dis- charge of every duty pertuining to his position; a manof sterling intecrity and spotless reputa- tion, he has, mors than any other man, contrib- uied to tho extension of the organization, both &t home and abroad, and has left upon the fra- tarnitr, its licrature, laws, and legislation, tho impress of his exalied character apd humano sentiments. JOHN W. STORES, DEPUTY GRAND SIRE, resides in Philadelobia, and has reproscoted the furisdiction of Pennsylvanis in the Grand Lodge of the United States for nearly forty years. Dur- ingall that time his record has been an excel- lentone ; he hns been distingnizhed 28 an 2ct- Ive, energetic, ard inteligont legislator, and his mme will be fonnd _attached to many of the reports whych have shaped the destiny and cisar- acter of Order.

Among these are the Hon. Cornelius A Logan, present Minister to Chili, formerly of Leavenworth, Ean.: tho Hon. George W. RBace, of New Orleaus ; tho Hon. Samuel Craig- bead, of Dayton, O.; and the Hon. James B. Nicholson, ot Phuadelphis. 3 s ILuNoIS. “ The present representatives from Illinois are : The Hon. J. F. Alexand: of Gre.ville; the Hon. Thomas B. Necdles, of Nashville: tbe Hopn. Thomas Alitchell, of Rioomington; sod James 5. Tickoor, of Rcckford,—all of whom are zmong the lughiv-respected and useful wmembers of the Grsnd Lodge. Daoriog the past yesr several prominent mem- bers have died, among whom were: |, DE. JOEN . MO} Past Grand Representative of San Francisco, He, s Specis] Deputy Grand Sire, intro- doced the order iato Germany, Austris, and Bwitzerland, and subjugated a continent to its pescefol sway. He was a man of scholarly en- dowmenta znd large ecieatific research, and held high rank in his profession. He was also a man of singular sweerness of disposition, nad be- foved by all who Lmew bim. Of the poor and friendless, he was both a friend and & champion. Foll of gentleness and all courtesy, any encroschmert upon the rights of the week, aoy indignity or oppres- sion toward the helpless aud unfortunate, roused him to indiguation, and he displayed undeunted courage and fearlessness in the defense of those Poweriesa to protect themselves. To the faneral of this man there camo not only those high in ¢ivil and social position, but hundreds of those %ho bad beea recipieuts of his generosity and .,‘l‘:nsntffiy. and to whom he had been a counsellor s THE REV, B. W. DENNIS, of the jurisdiction of Michigan, genera’ly known 8 * Fachor Deunis,” died in January, 1675. He ‘was 2 man of juodest and refiring maonners, but poascascd sterling worth and a nobility of char- Scter which gained for him universal respect. Ho was one of the early pioneers who aided to establish Odd-Fellowship in the Northwest when it wes a comparatively weak and unknown organ- THE LAST SESSION ¥1a 3 pleasant and profitabie one.

Yet, notwithstanding this glorious record, hus our pathway been impeded and greatly hindered. We bhave, however, surrived all opposition, 2nd can to-day congratulate ourselves that we have at length enlisied the favor of all good men in Oburch 2nd State, of every class and calling, and of every kindred benevolent Order, without cxception, and Eavo thus conquered every ‘enemy worthy of conaid. eration.

Lookine from the t slandpofnt upon ihe past of American 0dd Feliow- sbip, and from those forming 3 rational estimate of it fature, our hearts may swell with bonest pride in 1he conscionsuess that we have not lived in vain, e are here, then, not only to legielate for the presen necds of this great brotherhood, to promote its unity, and thus preecrvo ite healthful life, but to tranamit it with increasing power and capabilit to our descend- ants.

Oh! mo, the wonder would be that we could bo such unworthy descendants of the noile sires who have bequerthed to us the logacy 28 to fail to reslize ita value and our duty 1o presarve and perpetuate it.

To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune : Cricaco, Sept. 23.—In the last Bunday issue of Py TrreoNe I find a commanication signed “ Obiris,” dated Sept. 17, with commeants by the editor, and my name 1ovolved in connection with the go-called * Rite of Memphis.” A few words will dispose of the whole matter, 80 far as T know anything of it. While sitting in my offica’ several years sgo I was surpriced by the advent of soveral dis- tinguished Masonic gentlemen, who requested me to visit the {then) *Tomple ” and receive certaun Masonic degrees, orders, or distinctions. Thoroughly confiding in these gentlemen, I ac- cepted the invitation. Hinc ille lackryme. Haviog been sssidnously and devotedly en- gaged in Masocic work for msny years, I had steadfastly declined, since my arrival in the city Mesgonic position. The high character and IMasoric standing of the gentle- men I fourd at the Temple for the moment swayed my previously formed determination. I was s victim of confidence. The inner history of that movement I afterwards learned. Saffice it to say that when I asceriained its real objects, the high homor of the Deputy Grand Mastership, or whatever it was called, slipped off my shoulders ag fast a8 my pen could indite a resiznetion. The whole thing was an interlnde—a discord- ant symphony—between the acts of contention, farce, or tragedy, of the Northern and Soutbern junisdictions of what is czlled the Beotch Rite. Beymour 2nd Bart and their ** work” wers the accidents of the situstion. There is a great deal of human nature among men, Masons not ex- cepted. Burt received some monoy,—mors or lees ; afterwards came Seymouvr, who also got a few dollars. Aly friends, Mesers. Horton & Leonard, gpined o few dollars, and probably lost hundreds more from printing. The Crosby intorest lost somethiog in the way of rent and gashght. Our friend Caberry, the regalia man, made something, and vrobably lost more on “ millinery,” and the * Rite of Memphis ” then ovanished—obiit ad plures. Burt’s relation to the Grand Lodge of New Jersev hod nothing, or but little more, to do with {he extinction of the Rito of Memphis. His so- calied expulsion from Masonry by that Grand Lodge was otrerly illegal and void by all Afa~ sonic law and usage. The union of the opposing branches of the “Beotch Rite,” g0 that thereafter it was not nDecessary to pass the Commandery order to gain the 324 deg., marked tho gnsm’ng away of the Egvptian luminary, altbongh its twilight beams still, 1 am informed, irradiate some portions of Auchigan aud, vagrely, certain Occidental dis- tricts. Its brief history is but another evidence that, as in the vegetablo world, ‘‘suckers” and par- nsites tend to rob the original tree of its vigor and beaaty. Tha piling on and up of side de- grees, new orders, and strange ineignia, simply hide and deform the grand simplicity of the old Masonic temple. i Tha victim of one confidence game in Masonry has no fariber explanations to make on the sub- ject. J. Apans Avvex. NOVEL MASONIC GATHERING. The Virginia (Nev.) Chroricle of the 19th inst. brings a Jong and interesung sccount of & notsble Masonic event which took place in that vicinity on the day previoos. Virginia Lodge No. 8 of Freo and Accepted Masons, baving loat their regular place of meating by firo, determined 1o imitato their aocient brethren, who wero wont to hold their meetings on the tops o high hills or in low valleys, and to this end selected the top of Mount Davidson when soon _after the fire o nieeting became necessary. Of Mount David- son the Chronicle 8ays : 1t ia by sctual measurement 7,8 feet sbove the level of the eea, The summit is 3,500 feet west of the city, 50 that in 8 straight line from B street, corner of Tay- tlo foot of the flag-staff, it is not far rrom thres- :::;.’-“.:n afa mile, Bat by tas tzavelcd routo tho dis- tance is long and tedious. When the multitude bad essembled upon the smn- mit the eceno was the grandest that ever meta Mason's eye, Upon the brow of the mountain, and a little south of the fisgstafl, an_eltar of rough s had been impro whercon rested the three great lights of Masonry, Beside them stood the representatives of the three lesser lights. Rude chairs had also been built of rough granite for the Worshipful Master, Sen- jor and Junior Wardens, while the Descons found ample sccommodations emong the bowlders around. A “G" had mfiil from flhzet}:wtzlmd nailed to the fisgstafl. er wasindeed for in such o ;flg;a how could tbe lodge be duly tyled, in sccordance with modern ussge? But, under the directfon of the Worshipful Master, row of pickets, d a by white badges on thelr left arms, were stationed a1l around the summit, They Were mear each other, 8o that none conld pass or repass without permission. In that way the approach u!mm: '3: eedroppers was el Seching o summit, the brethiren basied nemseires ith dispensing an g of com, wine, x"n::h ol A bounteous collation had been by the lodge, and T Cmosty will provided with ihe nourisment, “and joy.

They ‘were ‘made of Ophir bullion in the year 1863 at the order of tholate Col W, H. Howard, and by him preseutea to thelodge. Their cost was' $300. They were saved from the destruction which lald waste the Musonic Hall {n the early summer, but the fire of lsst Friduy ‘morning found them in the hall of tho Odd-Fellows, where the lodge met after being burned out. They were monrned over us lost, but were Aually dug out of theaalies nearly peifect, but a singlo one being miss- ing. Some of those recovered have had portions melted away, but thero is_enough left o show the original design and to carry the identity on down to fature generations. The ceremonies of the day were of the usual order in form, but probably never in the history of the Order ‘have they been 80 impressive, The Grand AMaster in the course of his remarks guve accounts of some prolim- inary meetings which had bean Leld on the coast on the tops of hill, He spokeof one near Raglown, ‘where the brathren had come together m that way to raise money and provisions for suffering mmi . 2nd over which he had tl.o Bonor (o preside. He slso mentioned o similar gatheriug in Eureln, in 1851, and at Auburn, Cal. Healso gave an account of another preliminary meeting held in that way, when tho frst three degrces ever_conferred 1n the lodge were con- ferred on a hill, But none of theso were wnn:;‘g: H like the present, and ho thanked the bref he hed been called upon to preside over their deliberstions, After tho closs of the regular order of business O, E.

Now there was none. Masonry belted tho globe. The lights of tha altar had been fighted, and now there were six lodges inthe Empire, and the Crdar was rapidly spreading, L KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS, REONGANIZATION AND INSTALLATION. Mention was made some weeks ago of the tem- porary suspension of Gauntlet Lodge, No. 4, owing to reasons which at that time were vague- 1y binted at; which conrse was being adopted by this, a8 well 28 other lodges in this jurisdiction, for the purpose of relieving its ranks of & cer- tain class of bad material, which in the iofancy of the Order bad been allowed to find its way in. The queetion of how to proceed in this matter 'wa8 given considerable considaration, and, final- 1y, by advice of those best qualified to knor, the above course of temporary suspeosion and relin- quishing of charter was adoptod. In pursuance thereof, some days ago, thirty-gix of the former members of Gauntlet Lodge petitioned the Grand Chancellor for the reinstatoment of seid lodge, which being granted, Gauutlet Lodge, No. 4, was instituted by Deputy Grand Chancel- lor William Forest on Thursday evening, Sept. 16, after which the following officers wers olect- ed, and afterwards installed by the Deputy Grand Chancellor, assisted by P. C. Gardner, of No. 32, and Knight Fisher, of No.3: P. C,, William L. Malpuss, C. C., F. F. Cudebeck. . C., Horatio Thomas, P., Dr, G. C, SBomers, of Ex., H, B. Caldwell, 2L of F..W.J, Edbrogke, K.

The new lodre starts out with every appear- ance of a bright future, the temporaty vacation having had the effoct of holding over & number of petilions, which are now coming in together. Tho Order seems to be in a flonrishing and healthy condition tbroughout the West and Northwest, and there seems to be a disposition (as is stated by & member who has recently traveled quite thoronghly throngh Indiana, Iili- nois, and Michigan) to bring the O:d2r up to that stazdpoint whero its teachings and morals gotitle -it to be, while torough the Souihern Btateg., where lies its stronghold, there is no re- laxatiun of its former populanty. = X A NEW DEPARTURS. On account of dissatisfaction with the preseat presiding vificer of tho Gravd Lodge Kuights of Pthias, together with the assurance of the G, R and C. 8. of the same Ordor, some fifty men, comprising the oldest and best of the Order, vol nntarily withdrew from tho same, and on Fri day evening, Sept. 17, organized Imperial Lodge Kuights of Pythias, independent and free from tha yoke of the aioresaid Grand Lodge. *A very pleasant time was had, and after the Lodge wes organized_and the officers installed, some seventeen candidates for Pythian honors were initiated nnd passed the degiees necessary £o maxe them K. of P.in good standing, and in full knowledge of the working of the Order. After a collation spread by one of the best city caterers, the party adjourned atsbont 4 a. m., feeling positive that by next month they wonld have the first session of their owu Grand Lodge, and thus make tho departure from the ©ld Bne more complete. GRAND LODGE OF EENTUCKY. The sixth annual session of the Grand Lodge of Kentucky K. of P. was beld in Lonisville, be- ginning on Tuesday morning last. The differ- ent lodges m the State wero well represented, and all the Grand Officers wero in their seats, At the afternoon scssion the Grand Chancel- lor submitted his report, which was a very able document, showing the amount of work per- formed, by him during his term of office. Tho Grand Eeeper of Records and Seals then resd tus report, showing that che namber of lodges in this jurisdiction was 36. all in good standing, and giving the amonnt of receipts dur- ing the term as 26,280.95, and expenditures for relief of all kinds $1.732.82, leaving the amount on hand and invested 81,652.22. A steady in- crezso in membership was reported. Supremoe Representatives W. A. Cotter, of Newport, Ey., and John B. Sarles, of Louisville, submitted & very lengthy report, showing the Or- dar to bein a very prosperous condition throngh- out the United States, and coogratuiating the Grand Lodge on the progress ihat has been zg:gs in furthering the material interest of the er. The Grand Lodge proceeded to the election of officers for the ensning term, wich the following result: Jomes W. Mavity. Lonisville, Grand Chancellor ; Joseph H.
