FOR OOVERtfOB. GEN. JOHN E. GORDON, Os Fnlton. Tho Cutting War. Thin gro'tl ptovernmopt of the TTnil.-I Staton of America, 1.- about to get into r, war with her f'islor republic of Mexico. A little, oM, fcnacy, impudent editor nt El I’iiao, Texas, published, in Ida paper, Homething about a Mexican editor, just over the line at l’tpio del N’ort, that wftf* forbidden by the lawn ofeeney and tho Mexican government, and circulate ! it in Mexico. Not content with tlda.hr went over there to see that it win prop orly"circulated , mil to enj lit. fun of seeing the othor fellow and Ida friends squirm under it. when the Mexicans ar rested him and put him in jail so soo him squirm. Tho American government demanded his release upon tho ground that he was nn American citizen, and could not be punished by.Mexico for an net committed iri the United States, and that, being an American citizen, nomnt ter wlmt he had done, he wrs ns good re* ft Mexican, anyway, Mexico refused to release him, and sentenced him to a long term of imprisonment, and to pay a heavy tino. And thus tho matter rests, for the present. In tho meantime the citizens of both governments have proceeded to lash themselves into a fury nbout it. If the affair over was a molehill, it’s a moun tain now. There’s a heap of hurann n»- turo in it. The Mexican idea is, lie’s a a saucy little rascal and I’ll whip him or die. The American position’is, he’s my boy end you shan’t whip him; if you do f’ll whip you. Yon turn him alonse and lot him come home, and if he’s done wrong I’ll whip him myself, but you shan’t do it, no how. For onr part, “onr voice ia for war" and soniohody else to light it. Wo are too strong and great, a government to let a little Mexican republic, run over us rough shod—especially when sho hns so much nice territory on onr borders that wo could govern so much better than she does. But she lias knocked tho chip oil of our lint, and wo say make tier put it right back, this minute, or slap her into tits. CORRESPONDENCE. Masonry. The veiling of masonry in allegory could only be compensated by a sym bollio illustration, such as each master ia bound to give, if ho does Ins duty. But alas! Cor the good of masonry, many Worshipful Musters need lectuiiug j themselves. The old English version of the matter roads thus: “Quest. Where! dyed ytt begyuue? Ans. Ytt dyd bo gy line with the fyrst Ultimo in the Ksto wliyob were before the fyrste incline of flio westc, and comynge westly, ytt bathe hrouglito horwithe, all comforts, to the wylde and oomfortlesso." Hero wo find the news arriving from tho cast, and uow t<> arrive s' the east. 13 tho next basin. .Holder t'fro : , e ,1 mid glorious ltil'to is hero to direct us ba its gentle precepts to failli, the compass, I to circumscribe our desires, and a square, to square our notions by, and if those fit) the plumb on the level, all is well, l'lie three stages of tnau, have, in all ages, been considered worthy of consideration, youth, manhood, old s ■ We ;- awith admiration on the glories of a .setting bud, yet scarce cast a glance at it. while in the south at its noon day -p.ruder. When the moon arises in the ist, the place of light, the master may profit I y tlnir examples, and dispense hgut, truth and justice. Obedience to our superiors, justice to our equals, benevolence to onr inferiors, me virtues of a high order, and worthy of all imitation, “somote u be.” Peace Uegulnrity and IX c mm, are anlispeu alde duties. 11 *rt», all the fire of re sentment. and ifinombraneo of injuries should be forgotten and that quality of friendly cordiality, should be among u> that produce's cheerfulness and happy rejoicing; here if we are true, uo ni dic ious uiiud warps innocent expressions to wicket Joonstrnctious. or interprets in nnoent jests into sarcasms or satires Peace Regularity and Decor no ar. not the offspring of control or tin* issm* of autliontv, but it should bo the voluntary free will se.rv.oe. that every urasou j should bring t<< the 1 1 .."- Oar m;»t!i 'litre Hhould bounding.]; •.. It should .bo governed by Prudence, tempered with Love, and clothed with a pure and spotless fthsrify. True, there are seasons i: which, au thority ia properly exercised. Man is frail and the most prudent moy err. Nothing can be viler, than to traduce the character of a brother behind his back. Allow me one passage from tho much admired poet, “The ln.ll! Willi steals mv purse stes.ii t: h. "l'nnH ruin;;, ’tinhis, and mav he slave to thous and?; lint he who pilfers from me mv pood name, itolw in* of i .at which not enrieie-i hmi, liel Mailt :me poor indeed. The malicious wickedness of the world is 811911, that it is greedily grasping for scandal. But there is a selfish joy id good thoughts, acts, and words. Self approbation follows it. The neutral, self-loving disposition, is cold sj logistic, frigid and reserved, neither speaking good or evil. But the man of Brotherly Love is warm to tho core. Let us therefore be vigilant, stead fast, and immovable ill all our good thoughts, acts, words and deeds, that we be proved to be under tho tongue of good report And now, in order to establish a few predicates laid down, I shall Imve to re turn to the .society of Druids. They were a religious sect, peculiar both to Gaul; and I’ritiaD.and Tacitus says, both na tions had their Druids, and from their antiquity, and peculiar station, that some of their riles, and ceremonies were re* ! tainod in the then formation of our so eiety, for wo find that in 1110 they u. ; in regular organised bodies in Prance, j nnd built a college ut Orleans, and by their regularity and order, exerted so powerful an influence, that they became one of the two estates of France. And to these was committed tiie care, of providing sacrifices, dictating laws for Divine worship, and deciding the right of property. The lenders of this sect were chosen and elected out the boat families in the realm, and from their i birth and oflieo were Ik Id in llio greatest veneration. They wen educated and 1 made proficient in astronomy, geometry, natural history, politics and geography. , We find an arch druid 111 evviy county, who wus chief. At the clo.au of each year they hold a general festival. They . decorated tlnir siicriiiooti with mistle toe and branches of over-green oak; they recited mystic verse, supplicating the return of spring; they wore da l in white apparel, and the victims for firs saerilioo wore twowh ito belts. They wore forbid to write thoir sacred verses, mid many of them spent 2 1 ) 3ears jn learn ing those scientific distiches, by not writ ing them. The secrets were kept from thevulgni. buotonius says that this so enraged the Bounins, that Augustus prohibited it, and Claudia-' Cesar abol ished it, becuu e the secret was not writ.- j ten, sous to bo discovered. The altars of the Druids wore like the I Jewish altar of Moses and Aaron. H -uco we see the typo running back, to remote antiquity. Even a portion of tho marks on the curious ophod, wore worn by the chief Druids, on certain occasions. And now l think 1 have established one pre dicate. If so, TiH well. Now, to get at another, I shall have to go to tho tabernaclo. The proportions of tho different measures of tho taber nacle provo it to be an imitation of the world's system; for tho third part of the tabernacle that was written the four pil lars, w.aa considered peculiar to Cod in this: the priests were not allowed to en ter. But the spaeo of 20 cubits repre sented (lie sea and land, on which men lived. When Moses had divided tho tnbcrnnolo into !t parts. 2 of these were allowed to the priest, as common to all. Ho denoted the land and the sea by cer tain marks, such as were on the ophod, thereby denoting that God’s place was inaccessible to man, in a mortal state. \ud when lie "ordered 12 loaves to be set on the table, ho signified tho 12 mouths, that make a year. And when lie mad the candlestick of seventy part,;, he . tlx intimated the Decani, And : the seven lamps, on the candlestick, they j j were eiublamatic of the seven courses of i the preists. The veils being made of I font different tilings, they declared tho four elements, air, earth, fire,and water, Tho fine linen signified the earth, be cause it grew out, of it. Tho purple 1 was emblematic, i f sea water, bo auti that is the prevailing eo’uu of a deep son. Aud it? to the blue, \*.' need but look at tho sky to convince us that it repre sented air. And the scarlet has in all ages, been an emblem of lire. The vest ment of tho high priest, being of fine linen, represented the earth. The bine represented ttie sky. Now the breast plate was placed iu tho middle of the epbod. The girdle that was around the high priest, repro-sen-ed tin* ocean, be cause the ocean encircles the earth. Each of the sardonyx,*, repiesuiitod the sun aud moon. Josephus says that the ca-a.tiest.ck was emblematic of the seven .<.»>a *d crea tion and rest.

I do believe in sanctification. I will that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands. We are commanded to work our own salva tion with trembling and fear. We are commanded to pray without ceasing. We ought to serve the Lord with all our hearts. He came here to save us if wc would only ask him in the way ho has commanded. What I have written is in the lids of the Bible.
