f„ //„■ Hi. Iff Grand Secretary of the Grand Lslje
GttonjW;
A person calling himself John Fly, alias
I)I lunter, alias I>r. George lievi, but
whoso real name is George Levison, has
I,t.en imposing upon the charities of the
Masonic Fraternity lor some months past.
He represents himself as being Fast Mas
-1,- of a Lodge in ( Iharleston, S. < ’., which
. Ity he left tho day Oh which the bom
nai-dmeut of “Sumter” vvas commenced,
enlisting as a private in the <th If B>.
Infantry; as having hceu taken prisoner,
and afterwards released by General bee.—
.Sometimes lie claimes to lie a Physician,
at others .a Methodists Minister. Gy his
ready answers to all questions, ho has
sueceeded in victimizing the Fraternity
in this eicy and vicinity to a considerable
extent, lie lias also succeeded in exciting
the sympathies of the Methodist coligru
ga!,ion (white and black), ai.d lias fcvvin
them to probably aa great an extent.
All of his statements are false, and we
have evidence lhat at the lime he says lie
was a soldier in the U. 8. Army, he was
serving out a three years’ sentence in the
Trenton, N\ J., State Prison, for Bigamy.
He has been followed up so closely that
!e* has lied from this city. I have been
instructed by the Masonic Hoard of Relief
In einiimiiiiieate this information to the
several Grand Secretaries, that they may
take the nceessuey steps to prevent, the
Subordinate Lodges in their jurisdiction
liieii being victimized.
i’his I.evision is a man of genteel ap
pearance, about s*l years of age, five feet
nine or fen inches ill height, mixed gray
hair, and a capital talker, calculated to
excite the sympathies of all with whom
lie may come in contact.
Fraternally yours,
Fked’k VV. I [errl NO,

flic Ills'of the Old ('barges is as follows:
A Mason is obliged by his tenure to obey
Hie moral law; and if lie understands the
art, lie will never lie a stupid atheist nor
i invligous libertine. Hut though in an
nul limes Masons were charged in every
iiiitiLry to he of the religion of thaticoun
iry and nation, whatever it was, yet it is
nw ot hough! more expedient,only tooldige
them to that religion in which all men
auree, leaving their particular opinions to
lliemsclvcs ; that is to be good men and
true, or men of honor and honesty, by
whatever denominations or persuasion
they may he di.stingnised, whereby Ma
M.n y becomes the centre of union, and
He means of conciliating true friendship
.lining persons that must otherwise have
icinamed at a perpetual distance.
the greatest peril of Masonry is its pop
ularity. Its woes gather over its head in
proportion as all men not, only apeak well
"i it, lint, also seek to enter ils tranquil en
closure. It is impossible that a had mail
, in lie a good Mason, and therefore it
Humid he the maxim of every Lodge
' tl tuiuli/i/ is <;/ more worth than t/iiau/ify;
No aggregation of members can compen
sate tor an absence of Masonic virtue. —
The order prospers only in so far as its
members are conscientiously faithful to
l.licir obligations and shun all the vices
against which Masonry luirls its indignant
denunciations.
Masonic Aim*i:ai. in Bkhai.k ok the
Suffering South.— The Grand Master
of Illinois hss issued a circular to all the
constituent Lodges in the State of 1 Hi no in,
iu which lie appeals to all the masons to
'■"nti iUute liberally for the relief of their
MitV. i'ing companions in the South. He
:i 'Us llmt contributions be taken up in all
the Ledges, and that they be promptly
lcinuusl to Hio. M. G. Reynolds, Grand
Secretary, Springfield, Illinois, for distri
bution.
Masonry, \f we have read history aright,
is more than friendship; and is vastly
mom than a merely social institution. It
recognizes a future and personal accounta
bility in that future;ami while it disavows
being ilsell a sovereign remedy for man’s
spiritual obliquity, it yet points the can
didate to that “ great light ” by which the
soul may be assimilated to its divine Orig
inal. * *
In the first degree, the neophyte is
taught and pledged to the faithful obser
vance of LlieTen Commandments and l he
general obligation of patriotism.
In the second degree, that (tod beingonr
common Father, all men are the objects of
our love ami belli licence; that industry is
a virtue and labor divine. In tlie third
degree, the great phenomena of nature,life
and death, reproduction, light and dark
ness, are alluded to; and that (tod gives
eternal life only to those who aspire to
vArny ami honor, and immortality iu tlie
pointed out in the Holy Scriptures.

location will surpass it in beauty. I think
that 1 shall eventually settle there. At
present, l think J had best remain here,
i have selected a location about 20 miles
up the lake, on the left bank, just above
the bautiiul Island Which rises up out of
tlie water, and just where the Jake begins
to narrow and makes a curve to the right
The ascent to tlie top of the iiiil is gradual’.

chased a larnt on the lake with some im

they remained until lie could locate.
I am living at present in a house loaned
to Dr. Keyes and myself in this village.—

As soon as they establish their line i can
go to work—which will be in the course
ot a week or ten days, 1 suppose.
Tell Mr. Burrows 1 will not forget him.
At present J am the only surveyor here.—
(’here is a great deal of such work to be
tlmie, but the difficulty is to tell when it
will be ordered by the government. There
is a road to be surveyed from this point
to St. Mathews, which will be of great use
to this section of country, and also to St.
Mathews. A Brazilian gentleman who
lives at St. Mathews promised Mr. Gunter
to assist him in getting an order from the
government for the survey. Other roads
are necessary, as there are none of any
consequence here.
I am anxious to visit St. Mathews, and
will try and do so soon. There is it popu
lation there of 5,000 inhabitants. If! like
the locution it may tie that I may move
there after awhile, when I learn to speak
their language and practice medicine.—
This, however, is in case I do notcoiltiuue
to he ple:ised here, or if I can do much
better there.
This is anew country and of course
there are many ineonveuieneies here,
which will in a year or two ho overcome.
For instance, this river, “Rio JDoee,”
though navigable has no other myde of
transportation than by canoes—this is
very tedioes indeed. All our provisions at
present must come from Rio. The inhah
Hants might raise all abundance, but they
are very indolent. The climate and soil
lias done two much for them. Tt requires
too little labor for them to obtain a living.
I find some sickness here among the in
habitants. 1 1 you could see how they live
you would not wonderatit. I am doing
the practice of the village. Ido not think
though it will pay much money. They
are very kind. Every day they are semi
in something acceptable iu the way of pro
visions. I never met a more honest and
hospitable people in my life; anything
they can do for our accommodation is done
cheerfully.
Mary is very homesick. She now be
gins to realize what you told her about the
ineonveuieneies and troubles of selling a
new couutiy. She wants a lire place.—
But she is doing very well. I anticipated
that she would In* home sick—it is perfect
ly mitin and. 1 feel so sometimes myself, and
long to see the loved ones at home. But
when f consider the difficulties, present
and future, I lieu 1 ttiink them much less

may he Unit you may wish to come here,
if so I want to make you comfortable aud
happy.
I hope you will excuse this short letter.
It is not written satisfactorily to myself.
I hope in my next I will be able to do bet

itlr. Stevens Lies.
[From the Union MpnuKS Times, 21th.
Thaddeus Stevens once said, “Throw
conscience to tlie devil.” He is an infidel,
aud, of course, recognizes no moral respon
sibility. It is therefore by no means sur
prising that lie should deliberately lie,
where he had reasonable hope, to conceal
liis mendacity ; Lint that a man of his in
tellect and knowledge of men should utter
a falsehood which he knew must be de
tected and exposed, shows rare boldness or
shameless depravity.
May 23d, I called upon this Radical Mo
loch, at his home in the city of Lancaster,
Penn., for tlie purpose of obtaining li s
views as to the intentions and probable
policy of his party. Considering this man
as unprincipled as he is certainly able,
botli to prevent Lite risk ofmisrepreseuting
ins statements aud to protect, by the testi
mony of another, my own veracity, I took
! with me a gentleman resident of Lancas
ter. Tile result of our interview I com-
muuicated to my paper iu a letter publish
ed June 12th. In that letter there is no
iulse statement or unwarranted inference.
1 hero reiterate all said iu it, and desire
again to impress upon the public mind the
fact that the language there attributed to
Mr. Stevens is almost verbally exact.
At the time, and after wrung that let
ter, 1 was more engaged in the study of
people thau in the reading of newspapers,
and only learned troin a friend, on tlie
13th of July, that Mr. Stevens had, in a
! conversation with a New York Herald re
-1 porter, denied the accuracy of my report.
(his friend informed me that p he had seen
j too den u i, cop ed into the Cincinnati
i Commercial of the 10th inst. 1 was un
able to procure a copy of that issue, and
j have seen tlie article in question in no
j other paper. On reaching home, IStli
| July, I found two letters iu reference to
the same matter, writleu by thegentleman
who accompanied me, making the same
general statement —that Stevens had ai
le nip ted to east doubt upon the accuracy
oi my report. Iu the same letters tins
gentleman details the circumstances of tiie
interview—substantiates my correctness,
and urges me to defence; also ottering, if
I prefer it, to make it himself. This he
lias since done, under the impression, I
suppose, that his letters had miscarried,
or that 1 intended to pass the matter si
ientiy. For this he lias uty thanks.—
t hough l have uot seen his rejoinder] to
Mr Buevens’ lalsehood, I am sure it is
both able ami correct. * * *
i reiterate all I said in the account of
the interview with Mr. Stevens, aud ap
peal to Mr. A. J. Sanderson, of Lancanter
for piooi. 1 here has been no collusion
between us. He lias made a public state
ment which I have not seen. To show
my entire confidence iu my own correct
ness, I will add a short account of the cir
cumstances of the interview. The two
u r \_. levens house. \Ve were receive.)
by his yellow mistress iu his law office
the street° M l ? e s' rS i fl °° r aud Ol>ens u l )ou ’
tie street. Mr. Sanderson sent our names
. t L“ r - wh« in hit I™™*'"“
stalls, by this woman, telling her where I
was from a „,l that ,v’„ dc"i*,l
view. She returned in a few moments
say mg that Mr. Stevens was just then en
gaged with another caller, and asking us
to awmt h.s departure. I cannot tell ex
actly how long this visitor remained af
terour arrival, but remember that it was
quite long enough to weary me. At last
we heard him leave, and tlie yellow wo
man, after seeing Stevens again, invited
ua up to the library, Mr. Sanderson was
winhaiiy received—inquiries made about
different members of his family, in such a
manner as to indicate pleasure on tlie part
ot Mr. Stevens at tlie meeting. I was
courteously addressed. That there might
be no misunderstanding, I here handed
- '' ‘evens my printed professional card,
with the remark that “gentlemen of the
press were often accused of violating pri
vate confidence; that I was there for pub
lic information only, and J desired him to
say nothing to me that he would wish
kept secret.” He said his acts and senti
ments were pretty well known—that lie
had no desire to conceal them. Tlie con
versation then went on as reported, with
the exception that some remarks that had
no special relievauce to tlie subject of re
construction, were omitted by me in the
letter. Among these was tlie remark by
Mr. Stevens, when speaking of the ac
knowledgment of beligereut rights on the
part of the South by the Yankee
Government, that “ tlie hanging of Mrs.
Surratt was a cruel, unnecessary murder .”
These were his identical words. He care
lessly added, “ It is no use to find fault
with it now. It cannot be helped, and I
suppose was done to gratify a morbid ap
petite for blood on tlie part of some excited
people North.”
I have only to ask, in conclusion, that
the papers which did me the honor to copy
my letter, will publish this for their and
my justification. We have circulated
only the truth.

Loolie Labor and Coolie Immigra
tion.—The principal ports from which
coolies are drawn are Hong Kong, Macao
Canton, Amoy and Sawtow, Emigration
from the north of China has been attempt
ed, but without success. Tlie Northern
Chinese are greatly attached to their
homes, poor and miserable as these arc,
ami they look with suspicion upon any
proposal which would remove them from
their accustomed haunts. The French
Government endeavored to induce the
peasantry to emigrate by issuing adver
tisements, with detailed conditions, in
some of the principal northern cities, but
their invitations produced no effect on the
population. Bonded coolies are demand
ed by and departed to the following places
which are arranged in the order of their
importance and urgency of demand :—To
Peru, to Cuba, to British West Indies
(principally Demeraru and Trinidad), to
Butch Guiana, to Tahiti, to India, ami to
Java. The coolie trade to Peru and Cuba
is entirely in the hands of private contrac
tors—Peruvians, Spaniards, Portuguese
tuul Trench. It is carried on entirely
irom Macao, with the exception of one es
tablishment at Canton, that of a French
man, who ships to Havanna. There are
at Macao six or eight depots, from which
about 30,000 to 40,000 coolies are shipped
every year to Peru and Cuba. The coolies
are furnished to the depots by recruiting
agents, Chinese or Portuguese, many of
them men of very disreputable character,
and not a few more than suspected of being
connected with a piracy. It is almost
needless to remark that they resort to most
unscrupulouse means for obtaining re
cruits. * * * Coolies delivered
at a Macao depot cost the trader, from 35
dollars to' 75 dollars each head, money.—
The number of ships at tiie disposal of the
Macao traders is limited, English aud
American ships being forbidden to carry
Macao coolies, and it being seldom that
German vessels can he induced to engage
in this service. Freights are therefore
high. The ships employed are under
military equipment and discipline, some
what resembling English convict ships;
the coolies on board them are only allowed
an airing on deck by squads of twenty to
forty together, and tiie whole proceeding
resembles the middle passage iu its gener
al features; hut the coolies being far less
submissive Ilian negroes, revolts and mu
tinies frequently occur. Suicides are com
mon, and mortality is very great, averag
ing as high as 25 per cent. A frightful
disaster happened in April, 1800, when 550
Chinamen were burned to death on boaul
tiie ship Naboleon Canavero, in a confla
gration purposely kindled by some muti
neers. During the eight months from
August, 1805, to April, 1800, no less than
10 cases of mutiny—many of them having
very serious results —were reported in
Hong Kong papers, all but two of them
having occurred on board ships sailing
from Macao. These circumstances tend
to raise the price of a Macao coolie. At
Callao they are sold at an average price of
S3OO, and at Cuba they often “fetch” SSOO.
The contracts run for eight years. The
Macao coolies are all males, no women be
ing ever shipped there—the men are select
ed entirely lor physical qualities.

Fighting l.ilitnr* in .T|i>>*i<,*i|>|>i.
Tlie Vicksburg (Miss.) Republican,
speaking of the various editors who con
ducted tlie Sentinel, ofthatcity, before the
war, says:
“ l)r. Ilagan took charge in 1837, fought
a duel with tiie editor of the Whig, partic
ipated in a number of free fights, and was
finally killed in 1832, in a street fight by
W. D. Adams. His assistant Isaac Part
ridge, died with yellow fever in 1840. Dr.
J. S. Hall, associated with Mr. Partridge,
was a noted duelist, and had a number of
affairs, in one of which lie was severely
wounded. The next unlucky editor was
James Ryan, who in vindication of liis
honor, was killed by It. E Hamit, of tlie
Whig. From tlie report of the fight it
would seem that tiie Whig man got the
best of it. Next in the list came Walter
Hickey, who indulged in several street
rows, and was repeatedly wounded. He
killed Dr. Mackiin, aud was soon after
killed himself, in the Lone Star Stale.
The next editor was John Lavius, who,
it seems, declined glory on the field of
horrors, and consequently is not entitled
to a place in the niche of fame. He in
dulged, however, in the usual amount of
indiscreet abuse, and atoned for his folly
by serving a time in prison. Mr. Jenkins,
liis successor, in aspiring to immortality,
came to an untimely end in a free fight
with H. A. Crabbe: Mr. Crabbe was as
sassinated in tiie same manner in Sonora.
Mr. F. C. succeeded Jenkins, but not find
ing the editorial chair an easy one, he did
(he most sensible thing an editor could do,
and drowned liis sorrows and body at the
same time in the Father of Waters.—
William Roy, Esq., subsequently assumed
the editorial charge of the Sentinel, and
soon after be celebrated tlie event with a
streetlight. This |exercise was repeated
at intervals until finally he was assassinated
in a street row by his book-keeper. The
book-keeper died a natural death about
two years since.”
Bogus Account of the Execution of
Maximilean.— The New York Times of
Monday says:
Avery smart but extremely wicked for
gery lias been perpetrated in Paris by the
publication iu Figpro, July 8, of a detailed
account of the trial and execution of Max
imilian, which purported to be transmit
ted from this country by cable, aud copied
from the Esperauza, of Queretaro. All ihe
circumstances of the affair were given
all of them falsely, and yet so adroitly,
and with such knowledge of Mexican af
fairs, as to deceive and mislead—especially
under the cireumstaneesoftotal ignorance
about the event that prevailed in Paris.
Maximillian Mas made to utter the most
heroic exclamations, and give expres
sion to the most noble and tocuhing sen
tences, as he stood iu tlie presence of death;
and a heart-rending letter was given which
purported to be M’ritten to his wife Ca
rlotta the night before tlie execution. Tlie
whole thing is a gross outrage upon truth,
as M'ellas upon’decency, and should secure
for its author and publisher tlie severest
punishment which the French law bro
vides for journalistic delinquents. One or
more of our contemporaries published this
atrocious forgery yesterday, crediting it to
the Mexican paper published at Queretaro,
although it came by mail from Europe,
and its false character was (iu this coun
try) perfectly palpable.
The vicious die early. They fall like shad
ows or tumble like w recks and ruins, into
the grave—often while quite young,almost
always before forty. “ The w icked liveth

Genera! Lee's Uc]><>rt on School Discip
line-.
In the Educational Convention, in ses
sional Lynchburg, Va., on Wednesday
lust, Geu. F. H. Smith read the following
“ Report on School Discipline,” prepared
by the Chairman, Gen. Robert E. Leo,
who waa unavoidably absent :
The committee appointed by the Edu
cational Association of Virginia o 1
“ School Discipline,” beg leave" to report
that, in their opinion, it is impracticable
to establish fixed rules for the governmont
of schools. Public sentiment is so divided
on the subject, and the methods of family
trainings are so various, tlmt no uniform
systfim can be well adapted to meet the
general requirements.
Jf the subject of education could even be
ol more importance at one period of our
history than at another, that period is the
present; aud that it may be advanced to
the highest state of proficiency, it is im
portant that geuenu co-operation should
be enlisted in its support.
It is, therefore, considered more advan
tageous to recommend for attention some
general principles, and leave their appli
cation to thejudgmeut and discretion of
teachers.
The selection of proper persons for tlie
office of teacher is a matter of the first im
portance, aud as itsdufies require long aud
comprehensive preparation, it should be
regarded as among the most honorable and
important professions and be committed
to those whose beneficial influence and
instructions shall embrace morals and
religion, as well as the intellect. Tiie
teacher should l»e the example of the pupil
He should a’n at the highest attainable
proficiency, and not at a pleasing medioc
rity. Unless beeun teach those cointied
to his care to think, and to work, and can
impart to them vigor with learning, there
can he no real advance. He must study
the character and disposition of liis pupils,
and adopt his course of discipline to their
peculiarities. Above all, he must be uni
form; consistent, firm, kind iu his conduct,
teach more by acts than by words, and’
show the children under his charge that
lie has their true interest at heart. He
should look upon them not only as the
parents of anew generation, but also as
heirs of immortality, and while preparing
them for usefulness in tliis life, instil into
their impressible minds principles of piety
and religion ; for if it be true, as taught by
history, that greatness depends upon vir
tue, it is equally true that religion is the
fountain and support of virtue.
Should the daily business of the school
be conducted on such principles, and the
pupils be trained in the habits of obedi
ence, reverence and truthfulness, and be
convinced that they are noble and lovely
in themselves, and their practice manly
and honorable, the main object of educa
tion will have been attained.
In addition to these moral influences, a
teacher should he clothed with all the au
thority of the parent in thedisehargeof his
duties and be sustained by him so long as
he may be kept constantly informed of the
conduct of his child. Weekly, quarterly
and yearly reports of his progress should
be sent him by the teacher, iu which
should be stated his absences, late atten
dance and misbehavior. Certificates of
advancement should likewise bo given to
those who excel in studies and conduct.
The system of punishments ought to he as
simple and mild as they can be made
effective, and when coercion has to he
resorted to, it should he generally left to
tlie parent. Should admonition, restric
tion of recreation, &c, fail to produce the
desired effect, and tho pupil obstinately
resist the patient expostulation of the
teacher, there will be no other resource
than to return him to his parents as one
unworthy the place in the school.
fn connection withthissubject,andas an
additional incentive for the faithful and
conscientious discharge of parental duty
tho committee refer to a statement which
liie present Lord Shaftshury is said to
have made at a recent public meeting in
Loudon, that he had ascertained by per
sonal observation, that of adult male
criminals of that city, nearly all had
begun a course of crime between the ages
of eight and sixteen ; and that if a young
man should pursue a virtuous life until he
was twenty years old, there were forty
nine chances in favor, and only one
against his continuing an honest life
thereafter. How great is the importance,
then, of every parent’s exorcising the
necessary control over liis child until
sixteen. By proper management this
would not be difficult, and might be the
means of saving him from crime, misery
and remorse.
Respectfully submitted,
R. E. Lee.

Narrow Escape of a Spiral Aspen
sionist. —Aii ascensionist named Eurar
do gave the people of Bristol, England, a
sensation a few days since which was not
down on the hills. It was at the Zoologi
cal garden. He did not make the ascent
until rather late in the evening, and the
consequence was that he had a very nar
row escape of losing liis life. With" mar
velous decision he travelled up the spiral
platform on the globe,andou reaching the
top he was greeted with loud applause.—
OwiDg to some misunderstanding, a quan
tity of brilliant fire, which ought not to
have been used until lie was near tlie l>ot
tom, was lighted up when he w,is standing
on the top. The effect vvas dazzling to
the sight, aud he was compelled to shield
liis eyes for several minutes until the
lights were extinguished, which was done
by his own direction. Their removal only
served to make the “ darkness more visi
ble,” and as lie lie commenced his perilous
downward journey, it was unmistakably
evident that more than ordinary care aud
skill were required. He had not proceed
ed many feet when a shriek from the as
sembled thousands, and the sight o the
globe falling through the air, proclaimed
that Eurardo had miss«d iff- tooting. A
momentary suspense gave way to tremen
dous cheering, when it vvas found that by
astonishing dexterity lie had contrived to
save himself. He hurriedly ran down the
platform, waving his hand in acknowl
edgment of Ihe prolonged cheers that
greeted his safety', and wauteil to make the
a-oent again, but Mr. Jackson, tlie secre
tary of the gardens, very properly refused
to allow another attempt to be made so
late iu the evening. Tne event, as may be
imagined, created no little sensation.
But*Hamilton lias her opinion about
thi;«e loveliest of their sex—hotel clerks.
In her latest book the f'lowing passage oc
curs: “If ever the education of a soaring
human boy be intrusted to niyeare, I will
endeavor to model bis manner* on those
of a clerk in a hotel. For conscious supe
riority, tempered with benevolence, aud
swathed in suavity ; for js-rfect self-posses
sion; for higb-bred condescension , to the
ignorance and toleration of theM'eakness
of others ; for absolute equality to circum
stances, aud a certain grace, assurance and
flourish of bearing, give me a tlerk in a
hotel. We may see Generals, poets and
philosophers, indistinguishable from the
common herd, but a true hotel clerk wears
ou his beautious brow, and in liis noble
mein the indubitable sign of greatnass.”

COTTON —The market, most of the past week,
maintained a good demand for middlings at 20
cents.
The oirering stock was not equal to the demand.
We give no quotations for common grades ns they
are too difficult to classify. Sales last week were
235 bales; stock on hand in warehouses by actual
count bill; estimated number of bales outside
150—making a total stock on hand of 1791 bales.
We omit to report the full “statistical” table
published in our last weekly statement, as it con

two or three days to correct.
