•in jtunoply of Mysterious temper, shrou
ded in impenetrable socrcsy, surrounded
lie thousands of blind adherents, and in
possession oi tie; strong holds of power
and patronage, she hurls defiance and
threatens destruction to her aesxrtnnts.
‘She fears nothing front violence, for she
has every means to counteract, defeat and
punish it.”
To intonate the possibility that mason
ic oaths and 'obligations have entered the
flail* of justice, uud mingled their abom
inations in tlic parity of its administration,
ims been thought too hold a suggestion.
And surely the Cj.iiet of society must be
fatally disturbed, if the suspicion is awa
kened, that the security of our property,
and our lives is to be sported with by such
pernicious influences. Vet certainly the
murderers of one victim have been .screen
ed by those influences. Hence it h> evi
dent the danger exists, and hence the vig
< dance of all, who sebk their rights in
Courts «f Justice, is inevitably aroused, A'
their eye anxiously roves through the list
of those, who are to determine the con
troversy. Beyond the immediate limits
of the scenes alluded to in a sister State,
these dangerous tendencies of mffsoiiic
obligations have not been equally obvious,
perhaps to a very great extent may not
have existed* Yet henceforth those cor
rupt trials, sanctioned os they seem to be,
Certainly not disavowed, by tin: fraternity,
must infuse the poison of their example
through the entire sphere of its influence.
The danger is neither imaginary nor tri
lling; and even the jealousies, engender
ed by the morbid condition of communi
ties where masonry blends its uncongeni
al principles with the elements ot society,
must materially weaken the veneration of
tin l public for judicial decisions, and thus
endanger one of the strongest pillars in
our happy institutions.
With the deceptive character of the pre
tensions of masonry to scientific excel
lence and to extraordinary charity, the
public hove been made fully acquainted
by the disclosures of some of the most
candid ami respectably of its members,
tvlio have had the courage to abjure their
allegiance. Thise comparatively harm
less boasts, and even its puerile ceremo
nies unci its ridiculous pageantry, we wil
lingly leave to be quietly practised and en
joyed in the recesses of the Lodge. But
the evils we would avert or exterminate,
and to which we have before alluded, tire
of such a nature, that the fabric of society
endangered by their continuance.—
Gladly will we hail the day, when masons
shall renounce their exclusive privileges
*ud abjure the oaths and obligations which
conflict with their duties as citizens and
Christians. Their fellow citizens would
receive them with cordiality, and restore
them to their confidence and esteem.—.
Hitherto secoders from their ranks have
encountered the hatred and obloquy of flic
whole order, by their intrepid anil virtu
ous course. The independence and ccu
rage required to form and execute a reso
lution to secede, can only be found in a
few superior minds. Without doubt the
t great majority of the fraternity, lessmter
csltd and less prejudiced than their privi
leged and exalted dignitaries,, would be
easily induced to relinquish the ties and
the trappings, which they fun! themselves
encumbered. But the arts & exertions of
the frr inflame their pride and their prej
udiced, by misrepresenting our ' efforts
and charging tis with proscription and
persecution. W e trust, however, the day
approaches when the public voice shall be
so lend and se uuaitimous, that the infat
uated mid spellbound devotees of mason
ic delusion "shall be awakened to reason,
and shall joyfully fly from the dangers
which beset them, to the long deserted
ranks of their fellow citizens and friends.
In the pleasure and satisfaction at such
li result of their labors, the opponents of
masonry will forget the unmerited reproa
ches so often repeated, of being disturbers
of the quiet of tiieir neighl ors, promoters
of quarrels, fopnentors of jealousies self
ishly ambitious of honor and office, and
whatever else the desperation of masonic
zealots now alleged against them. It will
be for them a high reward to see Thru
present adversaries liberated from the
meshes of the mischievous delusion, and
their country relieved from an inveterate
evil.—This pleasure will be greatly heigh
tened by the reflection that in effecting
their object they have coincided in the
views, nn<) in a humble desrrtc contribu
ted to the success which yourself and
other eminent and highly gifted citizens
have been so conspicuous in aceotn|»li>!i

MR. RUSH’S LETTER.
York, Pennsylvania, Junr 30, lSfll.
fSe.nlU vr’/r—Your communication da
ted the ‘Jl.it of May, nod hearing the Bos.
ton post-mark of the 2 1st of this month,
reached me on the 2fi*h instant, which 1
mention as it will account for what might
otherwise sjgem a long interval between
its date and this acknowledgement.
The favorable sentiment* which as Del
egates of a Convention Witelv assembled
in Boston from the various parts o( the
Common wealth of Mii.-sttchurcttutn adopt
measures for the suppression of Free-Ma*
sourv, viMi It ive been pleased to express j
yftfie r*cw* which J have givog. to the!
. public upon this subject, yield me a very
■soL.l satisfaction. They naUiraHv juk!
I powerfully tend tv confirm in my own
mind the soundness of those views.-
They demand ail my aekuwledgeitn vits,
’ which J beg leave to tender to you, fully
; and fmcerely. Yen have yourselves pre
! sented . tews of rhe -object, other than
those which I took,that arc full of intpor
i tance. The subject indeed is of great
e.Vtent, and may be useftrlh discussed un
der a variety of aspects, as different minds
may be differently affected towards it ;
and thus the aggregate of separate contri
tions will in good time make np the en
tire volume of light, with whfrh it ought
J to he encompassed.
; 1 n the letter which has drawn forth your
obliging communication to me. it was inv
object to bold up the dangers of Masonry
as seeivin the contest it has waged with
L*w in Morgan’s case and the -victory it
lias won. That part of the subject and
in direet conuextion with it, the enslave
ment of so great a portion of <*ur,News
paper press tot Masonry, were those upon
which alone I meant to dwell. I thought
these points plain and practical and the
ground under each so strong, that it was
impossible not to stand firmly upon it.
This conservative maxim of jurispru
dence, is seen in its broadest application
when in force between nation and nation.
The entire family of independent nations
acknowledge its indisputable validity.—
deuce governments, and consequently na
tion*, are responsible for a mere indigni
j ty offerred to the person of a citizen of
another nation although the nation, cofr
lectivcly within whose limits the indignity
may have bce« committed, he free from
all imputation of intentional guilt. His
tory abounds with such facts, and with
i accounts ot wars, followed up to tlie over
throw of nations, growing not of them.
1 might meuturn, as a very fresh illustra
tion of the general doctrine, the course
just pursued .by I-ranee in despatching a
squadron to the Tagus to avenge tin- de
grading treatment shown to a French sub
ject in Lisbon, although it would appear
to have been denied that the Portuguese
King (Don Miguel) had given any sanc
tion to the outrage; for the French Min
ister’s note of reclamation, does not un
! dertake positively to say that it had his
I sanction. Had Lisbon ever been bom
barded A its innocent inhabitants suflered
' it would he nothing more than we have
seen, in effect, in analagous causes among
independent nations. Yet Masonry, in
defiance of alt this, in defiance of the ab
sorbing and trnn&cendant nature of public
rights, whether as claimed and exercised
so invariable by states w ithin themselves,
or internationally, affects to think that it
is not to answer for an offence committed
I by the immediate members of its own
I body, acting J rout a spirit inf used into than
i by that body. The latter ingredient makes
i die case lar stronger than the one just ci
j ted, or any; other likely to occur between
I -States; not to mention other enormities
in the case of Morgan that recoil dejure ,
and, as we shall see presently, dc facto
too, upon ifie Lodge. But what am I say
| mg? Why <h» l forget myself? With
; governments masonry will hold no paral
j lei; with nations it will hold no parallel;
I nothing but Christianity is its compeer!
j I'lie Lodge and the Clntreh, are ever in
celestial glory coupled. Christianity is
! not answerable lor the had deeds f ma
sons? Such is the consummate blasphemy
ol masonic logic. Sometime indeed, it
will stoop, a little. It will transiently
condescend to compare itself with the
Senate ot the l nitcil States; or, being
loud ot old things, to tlu- old revolution
ary Congress. It is in the matter of se
crecy, that it thus eonieSNielow its heaven
ly aspirations. The comparison, pur
ports, that a nation sometimes transacts
their affairs with closed doors, the nation
of Peu masons have also a good right to
close theirs eternally, with the stiperoddi
tion, en bagatelle, of eternal oaths, and
penalties, lest they come to he opened.
Let us look into the moving spring of
all this self exaltation. It may not lie
so much below the surface as that com
mon penetration cannot easily get to it, if
it will be exerted. 1 am unwilling to
transgress upon your kindness hv making
■ my letter too long; but the subject is full
j of interest.
i The public haw so long been fnmiliar
xcd to the name of Freemasonry, and it
tiroes its claims upon the public so impe
riously, that we have not yet learned to
treat it as it deserves to he treated; that is
with nothing more or less than justice.—
Through the same cause, its own sensibil
ities have got into the worst state of tnor
hidnes, so as to be vulnerable to the slight
est touch. Wrapping itself np in its ex
. ehtsiveness, it has no ear for the truths of
this world. It seems as if neither its un
derstanding norite moral faculty, could he
reached by them. It asks a standard by
which to lie judged applicable to ho asso
ciation of individuals of subordinate and
secular organization, in existence. If this
standard he denied, it puts forth com
plaints of hardship, anQii falls into parox
ysms of fury, as if the foundations of the
world were struck «.*;
Assumes tlio God,
Affects to nod,
And seems to shake the spheres.
This is c ver its magisterial port.
Remote ages arc invoked, and names of
renown among the quick and the dead;
the cardinal virtues are marshalled as tes
timonials, beaming like the lire of Elnsis,
to overpower the scepticism or silence the
contumacy of all w ho presume to breathe
a doubt against its purity or raise a linger
uginst its sway. It is fit says Bacon, that
we sometimes hunt iticeiifte wlirVe had
odours have hern raised. So it is with j
mason. Thousands who join it hv cross- ;
mis tin* threshold of a today but one© ip i
their live?, because tltcy find that once |
''Hough, ki**w fhS wot* of what passes
there afterwards, than of who*, is going
oh in the regions to which Ulysses descen

upon the credit of its own knights in buck

ing from a scrutiny into its more recent
achievements, and all its -existing d-.si rts.
It may Ik* profitable to detatcli ourselves,
tor a moment, from these demands upon
slur reverence and look at the case before
us under a change is tlie -otft ward circum
stances, but of none whatever in the real
substance. The mode of viewing it, may
open an avenue through winch the judg-
Mtnt can pass, witlwut the common hin
drances, to right conchisrans »n thechur
actejl and deeds of Masonry,
Let us suppose then, that anew socie
ty had been formed in tire United States
about five years ago, under a name before
unknown to us, and modelled, we will l
also say, after one abroad; for example
in Constantinople. For convenience' we
will give it name. We will suppose it. to
have been called, “ The Un thern of the
Sun and Moon, companions of tire Stars,
and Knights of the crimson turban. Let
us suppose that some of the members of
this society, a dozen we will say bad, with
the aid of certain signs known among j
themselves, and to all moslcms, but of!
which others knew nothing, laid a con
spiracy against the liberty anil life of one
ot oar people and destroyed both, for
breaking some of its own self-created
rules. Our supposition includes the idea
ot secrecy, as fundamental to their rules; j
and it regards the society as composed of j
Americans as well as foreigners. Let tis
further and lastly suppose, that these titled
anil lurbnncd assoeiators had then, by vir
tue of certain cabalistic*! vows that bound j
them to their society and to each other
with mi energy as if inscribed on tin- ban
uerof the prophet, continued to defy, for.
fid I four years out of the five of the soeic- !
tv’s all our courts and juries to j
convict them of this conspiracy anil mur
der, although their guilt was so flagr.-nt
that no intcllegent mind would think of
doubting it:—What would rot have been
the feeling of the people* every where u
gninst such a society, and what lawful
means would have been left untried for
its suppression? IVow here is the case of
Morgan and Masonry,simply but subslan
tinlly stated. The only defect is, that,
for brevity’s sake, 1 concede too inucli to
Masonry in the case assumed.
And, is there ary thing in tin* mason
ic society that should exempt it from the
fate to which such a new-born society
would have been exposed?—What is it
that gives to the former, privileges beyond !
any other association of men, that we j
should not honestly and fearlessly dc- j
nounce it, and trample upon it, as its own
adherents trample upon the law? What
is the meaning ot the statutes id premature
of which the horn-hooks of the law gives
us an account? Do we not know, that die
asseuce of the offence at which they were
levelled, consisted in introducing into the
land a power above the law; something
that prevented its fair execution? Amt
has not masonry done this very tiling in
Morgan’s case? \Y ho will say that pro
hibitory statutes might not he enacted a
gainst the Institution in N. York? There
would have been little hesitation, we may
t>e assured, in bringing the Turkish soci
ety, the ease of which 1 have put, Under
the sharpest penal legislation, if it had not
been made to disappear under more im
mediate hursts of public destestation.
Andnn what plea should masonry es
cape? Its antiquity? This is precise
ly' the strongest reason for putting it
down. Ancient abuses are sure to be the
most formula le, mi every community dis
tigered by their existence. They make
a claim to sanctify on this ground like the
English rotton borough system, and work
evil the more fatally under every form.
Time is a power which the artful play off
upon the credulity of mankind. Do we
require the proof! How else could it have
happened, that masonry lias stood even to
this day in a country like ours, whilst in
dulging itself in pageantries and taking to
itself titles, that have not only been ban
ished from European countries, but that
surpass till Asiatic exaggeration, and hav e
been forced to seek refuge in the uncivili
zed or ruffian tests of such courts as Tim
buctoo and Algiers? Positively, there is
an excess in them, a picture of elaborate
burlesque, revolting to all rationality and
that might well startle the fabled Moinus,
could lie raise his visor to behold them.
The explanation is historical, but where
is any longer the excuse, whatever the
more recent date of its regular formation
in Britain? Masonry rose up in Europe,
in times full of barbarism. Ft has re
mained at anchor, surrounded by its pre
judices, whilst the current has borncOhe
rest of society onward, enlightening it in
all wavs, hut in none more than in get
ting rid of mysticism and pomposity, not
only in government, hut in all the con
cerns ot life. To these two attributes
masonry clings with an especial tenaci
ty. She wo Id have the world imagine,
flint the charity which other societies ean
dispens with n simplicity befitting this vir-
Uire, and which Heaven teaches every
man to bestow with open palm upon Ins
brother man, though lie he no brother
mason, must all he perfume and in conjti no
tion witli mimic signs the memorials of a
rude and tyrannos age. It was an age
when the strength of the human under
standing was d'splayed by its belief ill as
trology; when freedom was shown by the
vassalage of the common people; am)
when barons and bishops not being able
to write fhefr names nw le then- fctgnrfi
t'aat marks instead thercol; niter the fash
ion wfc‘may siqqtose, ot some ol the still
enduring yin hols of freemasonry! Such
was its jtoenhar «ge, such the udvaiice-j
mont-of intellect, such the condition ol ci- j
1 1 il lilwrly in -the atmosphere oi which it
inhaled its nutriment. An appropriate
and beneficial pattern, for moulding the
principles and warming tlic affections of
American republicans!
The follies over w hich t une throw s its
mantle in the case of this institution, are
! egregious and grotesque. Any mind that
will contemplate them in the abstract ra
! tber than the concrete, must get aw ake to
their exorbitancy. But these might be
I overlooked perhaps, on the priucijAe of
leaving all men to the fruition of tfreiri
own tastes, did not time do much-wore 1
for masoirty. Its awful hoar bcomes a
cover for its downright enormities. This
is strong expression, Imt not too strong —
net strong enough—as what I am now to
state w ill prove. ‘ The fiends who actual
ly took the life of Morgan, have not, as w e
know, to this hour Wen discovered; hut
some of the brotherhood who had a hand
in this conspiracy, have been convicted
and sent to prison. Will it be credited,
that these convicts are still permitted to re
tain their membership in the New York
Lodges! Y'/iis is the fai t. They are
the companions of felony in the jail, and
ofmasonry out of it; one day consorting
with the brotherhood of inaleGtctors; the
next, with their ow n brotherhood! You
gentlemen, are probable aware of this
fact. 1 derive it not from the antiniaso
nic newspapers,.but recently, through o- ,
tber channels; for at first J thought there
must l>e some mistake, and abstained
from mentioning it in my former letter.
It seemed too much for belief. Would
not language have failed to convey the
sense of universal indignation, had any o
ther society than that of ancient freema
sonry have been blasted by every tongue
every pen, every press in tlic nation? Let
the presses devoted to masonry answer.
But how many of them have blazoned to
ttie world this masonic enormity! Per
haps they have not known it? benighted
sentinels, they are always in ignorance!
Perhaps they >vait for the technical evi
dence? cautious sentinels, they are ever
Son quick in firing! no, not u/goasotu v,
for the world; bet O bow prompt, bow
valiant, bow terrible, the dicharge at its
lot-s! how the trumpet of war sound! how
the clans assemble! how the walls of
the Lodge-universal are manned! what
signals are given out w hat chivalry is pour
ed forth! how
Maso.in* drums enthusiastic,
Are beat witih types, instead of a stick.
The last conflagration itself seems ap
proaching when masonry is threatened.
This is all the virture of its antiquity. Its
liege subject how down in homage and be
ing “ungirt and uncovered” after the ol
den time, pledge to their Idol “life and
limb and terrenne honor.” This is an
cient masonry. This is the Institution
that claims respect its antiquity, reverence
for its purity, and support because it is
persecuted;" the Institution that takes
convicts to its arms, receives them into its
holiest places! If u Juvenal should rise
among us; here is a masonic scene worthy
of immortal verse, or there is none such
to be found iu the satires of the Roman
bard. r
A few more reflections, and I will con
clude—AV ben masonry calls the name of
Washington to its aid, it commits a pro
faoation rivaling, in its way, the murder
of Morgan as a public crime, it is difli
cult to speak of it and maintain a proper
decorum; as iftliat matchless patriot and
hero, he who founded our Republic and
therefore - gave it its laws, who led us
through the countless trials of a seven
years war without a single violation of]
the law, as if he, could he have lived to
sec tlic* day when a band of conspirators
from the brotherhood ferociously murder
a citizen and then defy the law, under
oaths and selves which but for masonry
they never would have dreamed of, —as if
lie w ould have been the very first to uproot
all its foundations, could he have witnes
sed this spectacle. As surely as he al
ways vindicated the supremacy of the
law*. As surely as he tore to pieces his
oath of allegiance to George 111. that
once bound lam to monarchy, so surely
would he have given to the winds all the
extra-judicial and bombastical oaths that
once hound him to masonry —There are
some persons belonging to this Institution
who cannot or who will not reason upon
the subject of it; but from enlightened and
candid masons we may hope otherwise;
and before the great body oft be public \ve
have a right to expect, that it Will be con
sidered and treated like any other source
of danger to the public. Its charity, like
all other virture, would survive the stroke
of death, and find oi lier channels through
w hich to. diffuse its relief among the sons
of men. Above all, masonry is out of
place, in the United States. It is a hide
ous exotic. It is foreign in its original
conception, and in all its present hab
its. Its’complication and concealments
are not American nor its ceremonial, nor
any part of its hyperbolical nomencla
ture? An atmosphere of political free
dom ami openness, is not its element. It
has nothing fainly to do here, and as its
spirit is active, it will he doing mischief.
The wonder is that it should have existed
as long as it hn* done uudcf inslirmiori so
totally opposite in genius, to its eutiic
ereed and operations. It is too exclusive
