With so many eyes upon thém, the
members of this order have time a hard, of
it in protecting their rit'ual '_ from public
obg¢x':rItlOn. No sooner, however, are
they detected, than with a perseverance
worthy a better fate, they ‘go to avork
and concoct a new one._ Recently it
\_'vIll"be"remembersd, their ritual'was""éx-‘

I pose a new one; tllat in . turn, it seems,
has bden discovered by their ever watch-
ful enemies, and is now in course of ‘pub-
lieation. We give an extract ; and from
what we know of , their secret works,
I would not dispute its genuineness:
' ‘“Whenever'any person expresses, in
the presence of a know nothing, a strong
, desire to become a member of the Order,
he is'privately informed that he must be
"its certain corner at the hour of twelve
whistling Yankee Doodle out of one car-
ner of his mouth, and Hail Columbia
out of the other ; that he must have a
'1 copy of the Constitution of tlie,Unlted‘
'“§t_ate in one of his boots, (or shoes, as’ the
'7 may be.) and the Declaration of In-
j dependence in" the other boot, (or shoe,
; is the case may be 3) that when a person
passes him in a slouched hat, whistling
' the ,-“Star Spangled Banner,” he (the
, .caildi'date) must follow. He will be led
. up a dark stairway, into a dark room.—-
,.He will then be sworn by some person
‘whom the darkness s conceals, never to
Qrevesl anything he may hear or see dn
,_’r_ilig..tihe meeting.
. After taking this oath, a light sudden-
..._ly illuminates the room, and tllifteefl
I lien in masks approach the candidate,
holding in their hands the American
‘flag, made out of tvlolve hundred yards
~ »ofJAme'rican silk, which they roll arou_l:d
,-,:.Ih‘e candidate, completely enclosing him
after the fashion of an Egyptian mummy.
The thirteen then shoulder the candi-
"date, and carry him into the Lodge.-—
’ ' Though he cannot see, he can hear ;~ and
tha,.Great Grant‘. F-lum. the highes.iffi-
c_er.‘ad_rninisters a terrible oath, swearing
the candidate never to reveal any of the
pass-vyords, signs, token, grips, principles
designs or private work of the Order, on
penalty of being sent to the Penitentiary
or the Legislature’! If the case is not
too aggravated, the violation would olily
be visited upon the violator by sending
him to the Penitentiary, bilt the extreme
penalty.-:for‘*violation, is the Legislature.
I ’Afié7r‘_taking this oath, the candidate
‘isrolled round the room, this being the
' _”apeediest way of unwinding the flag. He
“sees the members standing around him,
I allin masks. The five principles are then
I dread to him, and after he has sworil to
observe them, he is compelled to run a
lflsplintsr (previously taken from the lib-
erty pole) into lhe index finger of his left
" " hand, and with the splinter and his own
‘blood, he signs the Cnllstitutioii and By-
, Laws of the Order. Physicians on be-
’ lug admitted into the Order, are compel-
led to take an additional oath, to the ef-
fact that they will mistake strycllllirle
for calomel, in administering medicines
to Dutch and Irish Catholics. Lawyers
have to swear that they will abandon
the habit of lying and deception, in deal
ling with native born Americans.

05* The Middletown News inserts
one of the leaders of the Hctrrforrl
Times against the Maine Law, and‘ then
-answers its-arguments or \rather asser-
tions. From the article we extract the
“following able remarks :
"To the insinuations that the law ‘has
a tendency to increase drunkenuess.”——
"That there has been more drunkenness
since the passage of the law than
previous" we suppose all unqualified
denial. If any one suppose, that
the passage of the law would entirely
suppress the traffic in five or six months,
they must have known very little of the
extenar or the traffic, the amount of capi-
tal invested in it, and the character of
the men engaged in it. It has to en-
counter two of the worst passions ill hu-
man nature, avarice and appetite. Im-
mense sums are invested in the trade.-
,It yields an enormous profit. One house
inthis city-—not a wholesale establish-
nient-—s.old in a single year 14,000 dol-
_ lars worth of liquors at a clean profit of
8,000 dollars. Such profits are not to
be relinquished without a struggle. Yet

be-bought. That there will be secret
plotting to evade and violate the law, no
_ one doubts. For this the law-is not res-
ponsible. You have very frequent fires
in I-Iartfoad. Is this owing to the - law
against inceildiaries? We think that the
law ié admirabley adapted tosuppress llic
‘ ..éh_le liquors; of and by firmness alid perse-
' verauce on the part of its friends will, in
time, do it. If from experience, it is
I 7 found inoperative in any particular, we
' willdo as the ._fishermen do with their
' nets: haul it up and mend it,—make it
more stringent. . _
One word more. The Times has been
regarded, par excellence, as the Ofgall of
c the Democratic party in Connecticut.-

The following stateilierit from Hunt’s

story : ‘
The number of miles of railway now
in operation upon the surface of the

Immigration ——The number of for-
eigners landed in the United States the

land, Wales and Scotland, 319,000 ;
from Ireland, 101,605; from Germany.

lllimber landed was 378.643 In 1852,
the number was 372,726, and ill 1851,

{ dition if left to our own strength it be-
! comes us to look for aid and support to
that Being, the smiles of whose counte-
nance will be to us as the return of sum-
mer to the blasted fields,
Ido, therefore, in conformityyvitll a
time-horlQred custom, appoint FRIDAY
the 6th day,of April next, as a day of
Fasting and Prayer..
I recommend to the people 01 the State
on that day to leave their wvordly pur-
suits, and to meet in their respective
places of public worship, and iii the pres-
ence of Almighty God, to call themselves
to a strict account for their short com-
ings in duty and their neglect of the high
privileges which they have eiijoved.—-
Let us reflict upon ilie causes which we
have given to the Giver of every good
and perfect gift, to regard us with dis-
pleasure, Let us resolve to atone,as far
as lies ill our power, for past offences, by
endeavbring in our hctiolis tolcouform to
truth and right, and by zealously enga-
ging in efforts to promote the welfare
and happiness of our fellow men. ‘
While we humble ourselves in_ view
of past transgressions and ask the_ coun-
tenance of Divine favor to ourselves and
those who are dear to us, let us implore
that Being who rules on earth as well as
in Heaven, to take this olir beloved Com-
monwealth ulider His special care and
protection I
That He. will bless the labors of the
husbandman, and cause the earth toyield
her increase; that He will visit the ar-
tisan in his workshop, and crown the
workmaiisllip of his hands \vit_li success;
that He will accompany those who go
down to the sea in ships,,alid’protec:ing’
them from the fury of the tempest, re-
turn them in safety, laden with the pro-
ducts of foreign clinics; that He will eli-
lighten with heavenly wisdom and
strengthen with power from above, those
who proclaim the way of salvation to a
ruined world ; that He will sustain eve-
ry institution which is designed to ex-
tend the advantages of education ‘to all
classes ofmen; that He will guide those
wbo_ are called to govern, and lead them
to yopt and execute wise and salutary
laws; and that He will favor every ell-
ierprise which is calculated to put an
end to oppression, to equalize the enjoy»
meut of rights and privileges, and to pro-
mote morality and true piety. '
Let us also implore His blessing upon
our nation, and askthat He will secure
to the people of the United States the ill-
estimable blessing of a good general
Government, and the enjoymeiit of peace
with foreign nations and llarilioiiy among
themselves.
- Finally, let us commend the interests
of the wllole world to His care, trusting
that under the influences of His spirit,
will and bloodshed will soon’cease, and

Nicholas then look leave of Counts Or-

some of the favorite grenadiers of his
household and personal attendants. All
excepting the family, having retired, he
asked the Empress to repeat the Lord’.-

‘on earth as is in heaven,” Nicholas res-
ponded fervently-—"always-—always--

Norwalk, Tuesday, April 3, 1856.
From the Elmira Daily Advertiser.
Henry VVard Beecher in Connec-
ticut.
Oil Friday evening, the 16th instant,
Harm! WARD Bananas, who lectured in
this place a short time ago in Ely’.-3 mag-
nificent Hall, to an immense audiclice,
of not less than 1500 persons, appeared
before the people of our native village,
Norwalk, Ct., in exposition of the prin-
ciples'of Patriotism. The village con-
tains nearly the same amount of popula-
tion as Elmira, several large, costly and
beautiful Churches, and yet this" distill-
gtflshetl Orator and Dlvine—we say it in
shame and sorro\v—was forced to lec-
ture in what used to be called the "Town
House.”
Application was made by the “Ladies
Union.” having charge of the “Course
of Lectures," for the Congregational
Church, a large, new and comnlodious
structure whose: congregation is under
the pastoral charge of Rev. Edwin Hall‘
well known to New Englanders as the
Author of a iloble work entitled The
Pzirftarzs and their principles. But
from some unexplained and to us unac-
countable cause the church was refused,
and the doors closed against one of New
mglai.d’5ln0St talented and illustrious
sons. This act on the part of the Cllurcll
unless a sufficient reason can be given, is
adisgrace to the society, to Norwalk
and the whole State; and we cannot for
a moment doubt, that the lashings re-
ceived at the hands of Mr. Bniicnnn on
the occasion alluded to, were most richly
deserved.
Takillg the manner in which he was
treated by the Church above named, as
an indication, "Old Connecticut" stands
ready to encourage the occasional visits
of her truest, purest, most faithful and
distiilguisbed children. with a vengeance
Will the Gazette from which we take
to explain, and set this matter right be-
fore the world.
Q. Had our brother Ella of the Adverti-
ser been a faithful reader of the Independent,
he could as readily have assigned a reason, as
have agreat many of our own citizens ; but
whether the 5-corona assigned by “outsiders”
are the true ones, we have some doubts.-—
Wben informed that an application had been
made for this Church, for Mr. Beecher, we were
really in hopes that the good natured though
rather severe,assault of the Lecturer, in the
Independent, upon a foible of the pastor,
would be the very means of throwing open
its doors, and the showing of a. Christian mag-
nanimity, which to say the least, is -too often
Wanting in illustration here in Norwalk. This
position of matters seems to have had no in-
fluence however, and he was refused admission
into‘ the Church. We have asked many mem-
bers of the Society a cause for the refusal, and
are told by all. that the question turned on
the fact, that the Episcopal Society refuse to
open their doors on all occasions, and so long
as other Societies refuse, it was l.'l_n1'eil.S0ll8ble
to ask the favor of the lat Congregational
Socieiy. The consistency involved in this
argument, we are unable to discover. Unless
groping about in the dark, we can see no rea-
son for any society being voluntarily held in
leading strings by any other denomination
So long as there is no other place where
a popular audience can be gathered togetlfer
to hear such men as Rev. Henry Ward Beech-
er, (who by the way, has more vital godliness
in one of his shirt buttons, than a million of
cold, forbidding, -in-approachable “nlz'rli's!ers”
who have It iher conceptions of holiness,
than in austcysanctimony. and oiitmird con-
ventior.a1isms,) Rev.Dr. Lord. Rcv.Mr. Purvis,
Ulyatt, &c., it is in our view unkind and un.
christian, and “it disgrace to our town,” (as-
our Western cotemporary asserts) for any re-
ligious society to force its own members into
that untidy,unconifortab1e,and urllzealtlly hole,
known as the “Town House.” .But if these
punctuilious scruplcs, cannot be overruled, or
done away with in our churches, will notlevery,
good man, every lover of his native town and
of his race, join in the new enterprise now on
dit. and help push forward to completion the
proposed magnificent "NORWALK UNION
HALL.”
Suffering.
A good subscriber of ours, who always
takes the paper, (and pays for it too, because
his wife makes him, we presume,) gives us I1
doleful account of his domesticinfelicity. He
isn’t an opposer of the “W0ma_n"s Rights”
movements—he is too prudent to be caught
guilty of any such indiscretion. He is per-
fectly willing they should go visiting, go shop-
ping, or go to the Polls and “vote themselves
rt farm,” “Provided always,” they will go car-
13/ enough to be at home token it came: night.
He is decidedly in favor of‘ the present fashion
of "going out to tea,” especially when his
neighbors have plenty to eat. and his own lar-
der is empty. and under certain circumstances
he would advocate the system, when there‘
was a good prospect of getting something to
eat a. leeile better than can be bad at home.—
But in all cases his Proviso aforesaid must be
strictly enforced. He doesn't believe in in-
surrectionary movements, or rebellions, yet
to have the wife of his bosom and the mother
of his children, away from home, and out af-
ter dark, two or three times a week, while he
has to strip the todligs, rock the baby tosleep,
and then prepare and eat his own supper in
solemn silence, is, he says, more than flesh
can bear, and he’ll do something desperate un-
less the customs of socié ty are radically chan-
ged. If it can be accomplished in no other
way, he proposes to run as a candidate for the
Legislature, and if elected will re-enact the
old English curfew statli".l.es,—ci'ecl: ii. hell on
the Town House (as altered and improved.)
and woe to the unlucky wife who prolongs her
absence from home after the vcsper hour.
A Strange Visitor.
-Oac morning last week, as Mr. Harry Meek-
er, of Redding, was visiting his traps, he fouild
it strange animal in one of them which not on-
ly showed it disposition, but appeared ver y
anxious, to engage in it tight. Mr. .\Ieekei';_ivre-
turned home for his ‘gun, and soon quieted
him. It proved to b c it vcrv large flViId 00!.
Another of‘ the “ same sort” has been seen
several times since n.-_-ar the same place.

caution to those .nr people who may have
claims, against placing them in the hands of:
itinerant, unknown and ii-re;-rpoiisible agents, l
who are now prowling about the country
thicker than toads in Egypt. The experiences
of some of our citizens for two or three years
past, should serve as a snmcient. warning.‘
Steamboat.
We are requested to announce, by Capt.
John Collins, (son of E. K. Collins, Esq.,) that
he has a Steamboat now L:-in g fitted up for
this route, and will run between i_Yorwa1k and
New York, fbrone year at least. He intends
taking up his summer residence, for himself
and family, among us, and identify himself
with the interests of the learn as much as pos-
sible. Success ‘to the Steziinboats.
fl-We are told that an effort is being made
to obtain Rev. He ury Ward Beecher to succeed
Rev. Dr. Halhin this pltic-3,. and that t_wenty-
five members of the Society have pledged one
hundred dollars each, annually, towards his
salary. We give the rumor, but doubt its
truthfulness.
P. S. We have since learned that the above
Society have extended " it call” to Rev. Wil-
liam B. Weed, of St-rat ford, and that he is to
preach from their Pulpit on the next Sabbath.
p- The Union Mantifactiiring Company of
this town have declared ti. dividend Of ten P91’

souls of the c‘uil~.lreli were jeopddized by the
reading of the Protestant Bible and the morn-
ing Prayer of the Principal. We are sorry to
see any sucll thing mooted, for it can prove
but ii fiiillire. as ct Society which cannot keep
their poor from fnmisllin g except by Protestant
aid, will not be likely to sustain a Scctarian
School. and if they coiild, it would only tend
unnecvr-e:~.ril;.' to cmbilier the prejudices al-
ready existing again:-zt them. In this view of
the case the moreinentought to_be discounte-
nanced by all, real friends of that Society.
When Sectarianism is introduced into our pub‘
lic Schools, it will be plenty of time to with-
draw their children from tliein. If the poor
deluted creatures who find it home and sissy-
luirl on American S0ll,C5.1l1fl0t consent to ac-
cept of our Country and its Institutions as they

of one on whom we place the most, implicit

not this institution embody the opinions

When they vote the measures which
govern their transactions, do they drop
their identity or principles? Do not
their acts go forth as their own, and can
they sanction measures asa body, of
which they would be afraid as individ-

between the character of. the Institution

trol it '?
The efiects of the operation of this
Bank are two fold. First, it collects.
all the surplus money within the range
of its influence and distributes it out of
the State. Second, its rates of interest
are so high, that no man doing an /2072-
est business here can pay it without cer- _
lain destruction. The result must be 1
apparent to‘ every candid man. Will
not money always be scarce if they are
permltted to continue their business"?
I am informed that the other day, a
farmer came down from the country and
deposited several hundred dollars, be-
cause he had confidence in those ‘men
who are at the heart of it; and he had
foolishly conceived the idea that tile
private property of the stockholders is
holden for the payment of the liabilities
of the company. The next day that
same money was in VVall street, New
York, seeking some unfortunate victim,
to take advantage of his necessity, at
the rate of from 2 to 3‘ per cent per
month,
One of these directors said that he
had as good a right lo make money with
