Thomas Picton Breaking All tho Embiemnatio Tooln—Laughing at tho Myths—Hin Vorsion of the Origin of tho Mystic Craftsmen. New York Herald, Co), Thoinas Picton was appointed, In 1863, Seorctary-Genernl of the Celestial Emplre of the Masonto Order of Memphis for America, Put- tng naldo his halif-completed weekly lettor tothe San Francisco Chrontele yesteritay, he sald that the day for secrecy in Masonry in America ts past, Inn Jand In which there was an estuh- shed religion secrecy was necessary, but’ in Amerlea it is a detriment to tho Order, “The few who enn bo called Masons," the Colonel cone tinued, “are tho followers of the Philosophic Mte,—among them the Duke of Sussex; Godfrey” Higgins, author of * Annclypsis'; O'rien, nuthor of ‘The Towers of Irciand’; and our {cono- elnostic Brother Btelnbrenner, Indeed, I fancy that Musonry docs not exist in America, that {s to say, as it should exist,— for hero it fs a benevolent society, «not! a philosophle institution. «Instead of stimulnt- ing inquiry, Americans who style themsclyes Masons throw a vell over tho truth. Thoy begin with myths and fegends, and add to them with every sucecesive degree, and tho bigbor thoy go tho more Ios thoy tell.” It was evident that tho Colonel and Mr, Stein- ‘Drenner taken Ike view of what tho latter terms the regalia orders in Masonry, and when the question was put to him direct ho replied, “That is preciacly the fact, Masonry, properly fpenking,” the Coloncl went on to suy, isan offort to bring all mankind toa common religion, and the resourches of Masonry aro intended to harmonize the mysteries of Christianity, Pagan- ism,and Judtalem; for tho most scholarly Ma- sons hold that there Js only one religion, and that that religion is the worship of the Deity under the symbol of the sun. Tho symbols in tho various religions ure diferent, but they havo the same ineanitie For example, the legend of Hiram, the legond of Arthur, and tho Iegend of Chriature the same.” WENCH THE MASONRY OF OUR TIME. Here tho Colonel throw in tho parenthesis that Probably, there are not in tho United Statos ix Insons Who aro really educated in the history of tholr Order. Thon ho added: “The origin of modern Seisonry can be attributed to Lord Ba- con.

It was encouraged hy the court of James 1. and his successor, Charics I, until the Rovolution broke out. Then the loy- alists, after the death of Charles I., reorganized their sovloty for religious aud political motives, tho religfon for tho refstablishment of the Church, tho politics for the restoration of the monarchy. Noxt thoy Invented what is cqlied tho legend of the thirddegree. Hlram Ablf Was the murdered monarch, Hirnm the King of Tyro was tho King of France. Solomon was the Chureh, Trum’s threo nssnsins were the threo Kingdoms, England, Scotland, and Ircland. Tho Masons of that day, who were the conspirators,—tho Ja- cobltes,—were necessarily a Recret socicty, Thoy called thomeclves, a8 tho Musons of the European Continent doto the present. day, the Sons of tho Widog, inasmuch as tho King had been beheaded and bis son had not been recog. ulzed. After tho Restoration the leading men ofthe movement formed tho Royal Society, which exists to tho present day, and they openly continued the work of tho house of Solomon. ‘The Jacobites in France continued thoir bonevo- lent organization, In England, tmmedintely after tho Restoration, x number of those ho had been proviously aMluted conjoined with a guid of so-called operative Masons, a body of reedmen of London, meeting in Mason'r lane. Tucy thon becumo Free and Accepted Mnsons, In 1717 there appeared to be four lodges in Lon- doy. Thoy met in tho Appletree Tavern, placed tho oldest einaan tn the chattcand proccowkth to organize n Grand Lodge, electing Sir Christopher Ween Grand Master. Fron that body originnte all the Magonio lodges in this country, THE FINST SPLIT. . “Those Masons ‘guuerotod sroone thomsclyes aftor a timo, and ono part of thom became known ns Ancient York Masons, and pretended to trace tholr origin back tosome Grand Lodgo of arehitects and othors that was hold in tho City: of York, and was snid to have had King Edward for its presiding officer. ‘This, as is tho story of Hiram, {a nnotbor respentntls legend, Tho other body of Masons repudiate that story, and con- tinue tobe known to tho present day as mod- crus. “ After the Revolution of 1688, the friends of tho Protonier resuscituted tholr Musanry in the Chateau of St, Gormatnen Laye, under tho dircot patronage of James Il, Tho Castle of St. Gor- main en Laye is In their langu: called Hero- alin. They orlginnted Masonry in Fraice, and, asa majority of the Jacobites were Scotehmen, it Deeamo known as tho Scottish Rite, which hus no connection whatever with tho existing Scot- tish Rito of Edinburg, known us Kilwinning or Royal Arch Mnsoury. “Tho lust legitimate Grand Master of tho puro Scotch Masons was the Earl of Derwentwater, beheaded in England for participation in the re- bellion and trying to place the young Pretender on tho throne, + = “To atrengthon tho religious feeling In favor of tho Roman Chureh the French-8eoteh Masons inyonted an addition to tho ritual, and this is colled the Roso Croix, Tha firet chaptor of this degroo was held fu Claromont, in France. Immediately before the French Revolution a German, Welschupt by namo, organized nnothor body of Masons, with strongly rorpiutinuary ideas, which became known a8 tho Murminutl, and was Introduced in France, and Cazotte, D'Alembert, Ln Harpe. and others of the eney- clopmdists became leading members, "Tho Keottish Rito os it exists in this country, known as the Anciont and Accepted Rite, bases its erention upon a charter thut was glyen to Blophen Morin. whose mnlesion it was to bo to found tn tho Fronch colonies nf America what they call tha Rite of Porfection, The namo signed on that charter as that of tho Grand Master was that of La -Corne, a dancing nias- jor.
