So far as concerns the higher or Grand Lodge officers, their salaries in most cases are quite liberal. The great fabric of Odd Fellowship, which is rapidly becoming so gigantic in its proportions, whose stately temples and princely hall are to he seen in almost every village of any consequence in this broad land, from Atlantic's storm-beaten coast to the geutlo fclopes of tho grand Pacific, and ivhosc membership, number dredrj of thousands and composed of almost all jclasses of men, now stands a monument of such imposing grcatuc5F, that even its j great founder in his wildest, dreams never could have anticipated, nor could he now recognize in tha bearded, blustering mauhood of Odd ' Fellowship, the modest youth with whom he parted years ago,' so great has been the change. The open-hearted, sympathetic and be nevolent earnestness of youth is succeed ed by the pride and selfishness of maturcr years. It is an old saying that money makes the man , and it is a saying that holds good in almost every organization known to man, and especially will it hold good in Odd Fellowship. Money is the sure foundation of its superstructure, and t lie laws requiring its payment are as iccxer able as late.! That brother whose only sin is poverty, and whose inability to I pay the required sum annually assessed against himi is cut off from the privileges of his lodge and the companionship of his tellowsj although he may, m more prosperous days have contributed hund reds of dollars to the building up of the order and the acquisition of property to his louvre, i Benevolence and Chaiity, how sadly ana unmerciiuily are you belied ; how o!ten are your benefactions directed from the high and noble mission of relieving the unfortunate and distressed, and pour ed into concrs already full to overflowing. Many lodges, while very strict m re quiring the paymeut of dues, even from a brother id reduced circumstances, will not hesitate to give some grand present to a rich officer who by his wealth has attained to;a,lugh position in the order. Thus it is tho very object of the associa tion is lost sight of. To relieve tho dis tressed, visit the sick, bury the dead, and educate the orphan, was the grand mis sion of Odd Fellowship instituted. Lodges in their character take form from the. characters of the men who rule them. Many lodges are ruled by whole- souled men whose sympathyies when aroused, by being brought face to face with the ueedy and destitute, do not hes itate to releive, with alacrity, the wants of their brother, whilst other" lodges arc ruled by entirely) different characters. Men whose sole aim seems to be the financial success of the lodge and their own aggrandizement ; who make it a rule to collect ! to the utmost farthing, and never to vote benefits to; a sick brother if the brother can possibly get along with out. Many good men are driven from the order by the grasping and illiberal disposition of their respective lodges, who reserve to themselves the right to give or withhold that which rightfully belongs toj a sick or distressed brother, ignoring all claims he may chance to pre sent by reason of the fraternal ties which bind him to the order. The character of the order for its prin ciples of benevolence is such that very many, through pride, never present their claims i for benefits in person, trusting wholly to the action of their lodge and and the justice of their claims upon it. And the consequence is that the money which ought to have been paid out in its proper place, is retained in the lodge fund, thereby working a grievous injus tice to very many excellent men, who have contributed hundreds of dollars to that fund, but-in sickness or adversity have never received to the amount of one dime as an acknowledgment even of their membership in the order, to say nothing of those rights for which they have paid so dearlyj , Every pdd Fellow should remember the solemn admonition contained in the teachings' of true Odd Fellowship, and that Charity, which is said to cover "a multitude of sins, should begin at home, in your own lodges. You need no far fetched objects on whom to bestow your benetactions. oearcn your own circles and you will no doubt find ample oppor tunity : for benefitting each other and thereby forwarding the great work of reformation in the practical workings of the principles ot .Odd fellowship.

The following should receive thcT careful attention of every parent, as well as every youug man iu the country : A child beginning to read, becomes delighted with newspapers, because he reads of names and things which aro very familiar, and ho will make progress accordingly. A newspaper, in one year, is worth a quarter's schooling to a child, and every father must consider that sub stantial information is connected with this advancement. The mother of a fam ily, being one of its heads, and having a more immediate charge of children, should herself be interested. A mind, occupied becomes fortified against the ills of life, and is braced for any emer gency. Children amused by reading or Etudy are, of course, considerate and more easily governed. How many I thoughtless young men have spent their earnings in tavern or grog shop, who ought to have been reading? How many parents, who never spent twenty dollars for' their families, would gladly have given thousands of dollars to re claim a son or daughter, who had igno rantly and thoughtlessly fallen into temp tation. " A LadyTqief Smothered With At tention. A certain lady in this village whom we shall call Mrs. Jones, because that is not her name, has some goods stored in the cellar of one of our stores. A few days since she visited the cellar with the evident intention of obtaining some articles, and while there one ot the clerks had occasion to visit it also, for the purpose of getting a few pounds of butter tor a customer, lie noticed that tho lady i in question stood close to a quantity of eggs, and that her crinoline had assumed undue proportions. lie ap parently paid no attention to her, howev er, but hastened back to the store : and informed one of his fellow clerks of what he had accidentally discovered. Aeon sulfation 'was immediately held, when one ot the clerks , resolved to ascertain the correctness of their "suppositions, viz: that Mrs. Jones had a number ot eggs concealed in her dress. In order to do this, the clerk seized an axe handle and commenced flourishing it near the entrance to the cellar. As soon as Mrs. Jones made her appearance in the store, the clerk addressod her thus: "Oh, Mrs. Jones, there is a spider on your Photographers! l.
