The extensive fields of arts and of sciences, to sajr nothing of the great code of moral teachings, which are em braced within the Masonic circle, afford au inexhaustible fund of subjects, anj one of which opens to the mind of the Mason a truitful sonree of meditation and study. The themes lira ever new. and their Contemplation is ever profita ble. Since the rise of the Masonic Institution, which dates very many years far away in the past, how many human institutions have arisen and fallen, while that of Masonry has still survived, and found able and efficient a importers among the great and go< and of earth. How are we to account for this ? In no other way, I apprehend, than from the fact that the Instftmi. n is based upon Divine Truth. The ele ments entering into this foundation are emanations froth God, and are aa eter nal in their nature, as is God in his' existence. We make no allusion here to the forms and ceremonies of this ancient association; these, through the influence of agencies brought to bear upon them, myAf possibly suffer change, (though such is not in the slightest de gree probable), but that part of the insti tution which constitutes its divinity can never change, uutii God himseli shall change. A peculiar characteristic of Masonry is its unity. It is one and iudivisible wherever lound. It recognizes the same principles, seeks the same ends, and speaks the same language, in every part of the World where it has planted its standard. It is a beautiful and har monious system, which from its very nature, admits no change. Truth can never change; “truth is a divine attri bute,’' and is the basis,upon which this superstructure is erected, aud until truth ceases to he truth, the unity of the institution tan never be interrupted. The usefulness of Masonry is forever placed beyond controversy. It has left its impress on every age and nation. To soothe the distress, to dry the tears of the mourner, to raise up the fallen, to comfort the sick, to aid the widow, to minister to the necessities of the fatherless, to cheer the dying, and to pertorm the last sad rites in behalf of the dead, are acts too commonly identi fied with Masonic labor to need special notice. The blessings of many a widow are resting upon this institution, and many an orphan s prayer has ascended to the lbrone Eternal, for the spread and perpetuity of those principles which seek to aid and protect the helpless aud destitute. With the sanctity of such prayers gathered around it, and with the united efforts of such willing hearts within it, and with a determination to continue such labors, it is hardly possible that its usefulness can ever be paralyzed. Some have doubted the utility of Masonry because of its secrecy. This but shows how common it is for men to think superficially. Is the earth an objection to the diamond ? is the mate rial we find mixed- with the ore an objection to the metal ? The earth and the material connected with the pre cions stone and the metal, have their use, but they are neither the stone nor the metal. They are but the surround ings, and denote the presence of valua ble treasures. The secrets of Masonry are not Masonry'any more than a man’s clothing is the rnan himself. The physical body is not the man ; that body denotes the presence of a Divine principle of life within, which we de nominate the soul. The secrets of Masonry may be compared to a cloud which envelopes the institution, and which is penetrable by those who are instructed, but the spirit, the essence of the institution, lies hack of all these. He that doubts ihe utility of Masonry because ot its secrets, acts unwisely. Why not doubt the utility) of the Bible because it contains mysteries ? Yv'by not oubt the utility of astronomy, geology, medicine, or other sciences, because ney contain mysteries not understood, or secrets which remain undeveloped? there is one peculiarity of the Ma- ? n i C .: nßt '. tn, . ion whicl ‘ w worth noticing, nd that is its indestructubility.
