1 the fall of tho Roman Empire ...
tlio fifth century, tho public mind of
Europe was preparing for important
changes in tho structure of society; for
t lie overthrow of the fndal system and for
the establishment of a more enlightened
••ml lilieral order of tilings. Tho deep
slnmlier of barbarism began to be bro-
!»en by occasional birth-tliroes of thought
and action. The spirit of chivalry which
was born in the dark forests of Germany,
and which had prevailed for several pro
ceeding centimes, about tho beginning
o( the twelfth century culminated in tlio
Crusades; a system of warfare which un
questionably had it* origin in religious
ignorance and fanaticism, l»nt which
wrought important results in the history
of Christian civilization.
It was the last qnarter of the eleventh
eentnry when I’eter. an enthusiastic
monk of Amiens in France, visited Je
rusalem to pay his devotions at the tomb
oi too Saviour. At this period the Holy
band was completely nndcr the sway of
the Saracen nnd Turk, who wantonly
desecrated the most sacred places nnd in
flicted the greatest • barbarities on the
Christian pilgrims who flocked thither
from occidental countries forpionspnr-
1>OS °Jn famous French anchorito
was filled with holy indignation by these
flagrant acts of cruelty and sacrilege, and
resolved to return to arouse the Christian
nations of Europe to combine for tho
overthrow of the Moslem power in Pal
atine, and to rekindle the light of Chris
tianity^ beneath the refulgent beams of
the Orient Ho soon found a powerful
champion of his cause in the person of
Urban II., who then held tlio pontificate
of Rome. T. ’’
Placenta was called, consisting of 4,000
ecclesiastics and 30,000 laymen, and
where the mighty multitude decreed a
war of extermination against the infidel.
Then followed tho Conned of Clermont,
where a wliirlwind of excitement was cre
ated by tho impassioned oratory of the
Popo and the wild harangues of too hor-
mit it is th* mill vf God, it i» the mill of
'•od, was the fanatical shout of tlio tu
multuous assembly, and with this sub
lime battle cry of all Christendom was
*ummonod to arms. Tho tide of enthu
siasm had how set in all its strength nnd
was rolling wildly over the Western world.
The rabble of Europe not only enlisted
under the banner 01 tho cross, but im
perial princes, mitered prelate*, wealthy
Warcnts, honored dukes, and titled connts
:md earls, in short the highest dignitaries
in chnrch and state embarked in the holy
war and urged the common crusaders
forward to flfdit for the roscuo of the holy
fitv and sepulchre from the profanations
of Paganism. Fredrick, the Emperor,
Richard, King of England, Phillip, King
of France, Leopold, Dnko of Austria,
1 tobert of Normanuy, Godfrey,of Bullion,
and his chivalrio brother Ballwin, togeth
er with a multitude of Bishops : these
ere nome of the illustrious names associa
ted with this wonderful movement of the
liuudlo ages. Eight distinct crusades
were undertaken inthin tho space of two
hundred years, and in these several expe
ditions, it is estimated, that eight millions
of tlio European population were poured
upon the ensanguined plains of Asia, nnd
that two millions of the crasaders
]>eri*hod in the bold adventurers against
the pagan enemies. Men havo never
made greater sacrifices or fought with
more determination courage than the
of toe West. They felt
that they were fighting the bottles ot the
King of kings and hence they were will-
?ng to poor out their lost drop of blood
in defense of their holy Faith. And by
their heroic achievement they succeeded

Temple, ia Jerusalem, which l»y tho favor
of Baldwin II, was appropriated to their
use for a season. This sacred Order was
founded in 1118 by nine noble Knights
of France, and was regularly incorpora
ted in 1128 by Popo Honorous II, who
was ono of tlio most zealous advocates
of its principle* and purpose*, *
1* now 7.”*2 years old. These C
Knight*, in addition to their
chastity, poverty and obedience, bound
themselves by a solemn oath to defend
tho sepulchre of tho Saviour and to pro
tect all Christina Pilgrims in their jour
neying* tho Holy land. By their lofty
deods of ljenovolenco and valor, they *0011
became, say* tho historian, “tlio most
celebrated and powerful of the religii
military orders of Christendom. ” When
ever widow’s wail and tlio orphan'll cry
brokn upon tho air; whenever tho sancti
ties of innocent maidenhood were imper
iled or violated; wherever tho road* load-
through Palestine were infested by l»ar-
baronH banditti, nnd whenever tlio rite*
of tho Christian Religion wore trampled
upon by a Moslem foot; there the glitter
ing blade* of the Sir Knight* lca]»cd
forth from their scabbard and incited
summary vengeanco on these wonten
violator* of the most sacred obligations
of life. It i* not surprising therefore,
tint a body of men who rendered wich
eminent service to tlie oanso of linmani'
tv and Christian truth should have won.
toe admiration of mankind. According
ly tho Templars rose rapidly from poverty
mid abstinence to great affluent* aud
luxury. They were enriched by large
donations of lands and money, so that
by tho middloof the thirteenth century
they numbered nine thousand lordships
in Europe, and commanded the free
homage of every dynasty and throne.
Bnt tlieir immense wealth and prosperity
proved their weakness and extinction as
a corporate body. Tho adulteration of
monarches and the excesses of self-indul-
genco corrupted them and caused them
to loso that native virtue and martial
spirit which had been tlieir strength
and glory in former days. Tho institu
tion continued to decline until the
spring of 1312, when Popo Clemen V,
.H.tlMiiAn nf Pltllin lltfl Vaiv qJ

John. Thus history presents tho novel
spectaclo of a Pope claiming to bo the
infallible head of the Church, becoming
the miserable tool of a profligate prince,
and abolishing, by an act of tyranny, a
Christian institution which another Pope
had incorporated and consecrated with
nil tho solemnities of pontifltrial authori
ty-
It is important to olwerve, here, Uud
Christian Knighthood liod originally no
connection with Free Masonry. The
cause of the union of the two orders was
the fierce and unrelenting persecution of
the former. The crowned neada of Italy,
Germany, England and Spain combined
to exterminate the Templars from the
earth. Their estates were confiscated
and their conclaves broken np. and in
their feeble and dispersed condition they
proposed to form u defensive alliance
with the ancient Masonic Fraternity.—
“Maaonry accepted tho proposals of this
would-be ward, and placed it in a aeat
superior, as a qualification for member
ship among tlicm, that tho candidate
previously pJft through the several de
grees of Ancient York Masonry. Hence
the relation and superposition of Blue
Lodge, Chapter and Commandery which
con tinned, to this day.”

Erery troc Templar ia sworn to support

solemn oath to the wild*: “I now de
clare, in truth and sobtrnes*. that I hold
no enmity or ill will tovurd* any soul on

conld I find in him a corresponding dis
position.” This may ta denominated
the demon of Malignity.
Tlio last enemy is an exceedingly lofty
one, that is ever exulting in his own wis
dom and virtue, saying with a supercili
ous nir to his neighbor, stand than there
for\l am holier than thou, and insanely re
fining to be, humbly before that august
and blessed Nnmo which cause all the
principalities and po » cm of Heaven to

If these insidious cnemim could*lie

that cross whore image lien this day up
on your beating hearts, and by tho splen

and humanity. Tims may we hope to

eternity cometh.
A Short Story with a Moral »
An English writer say*. ‘The night I
was out late; I returned by the Leo cabin
eleven o’clock. As I approached I saw a
strange looking object crowling nndcr the
eaves. A cold rain whs falling/ it was
autumn. I drew near, and there was
Minnie wet to the skin. Her father had
driven her ont some hours before; she
had laid down to listen for tho heavy
snoring of his drunken slumbers, ao that
she might creep back to lied. Before
she licanl it, nature seemed exhausted,
and she fell into a troubled sleep, with
the rain drop* patting upon her. I tried
to take her home with me; bnt no true
as n martry to his faith, *he straggled
from me and returned to tho now dark
and silent Cabin. Things went for
weeks and months, but at length Lee
grew less violent, even in Ida drunken
fits to his self-denying child; and
ono day, when ho awoke from a
slnmlier after a debauch, and found her
preparing breakfast for him, and singing
a childish song, ho turned to her, and,
with a tone almost tender, said: ‘Minnie,
whal make* you etoy with me?’ ‘Because
you arc niy rather, and I love you.’ ‘Yon
lovo me,’ repeated tho wretched man
•yon lovo me?* He looked at hi* bloated
limbs, his soiled and ragged clothes.—
‘Love me,'4 lie still murmured; ‘Minnie
what makes yon lovo me? I am a poor
drunkard, every body else despise* me,
why don’t you!” ‘Dear father,’ said the
girl with swimming eyes, ‘my mother
taught me to love yod, and every night
alio comes down from heaven and stands
by my bed andasy*, ‘Minnie, don'tlcave
your father, ho will get away from that
rum fiend some cf these days, and then
how hanpy yon will be.' The quiet per
sistant love of this child was thk redemp
tion of this man.

the late war he whs tried by a drumhead
court martial, found gnilty, sentenced tc
death, duly hung, mud pronouncod dead
by two surgeon* iu attendance, one of
whom secured the body. He then re
stored the banged man to life. Although
hews* to all appearances dead, yet the
vital spark was not quite extinct The
hanged man hid himself until the war was
over, and then settled on a farm within
thirteen miles ortho city where he is now
at work. The scar alluded to is bat the
marks of the rope by which lio whs sus
pended. Tho execution, it is nlledged,
took place in Kershaw county. It is al
so stated that the surgeon who restored
the man to life is now a resident of this
city.—Charleston Fetes.
