Many of our lead- ing merchants are daily in receipt of letters and telegranw staling that this infamous method of warfare is being indulged in, and that the fears of our country friends are ex- cited beyond measure. They refuse to visit or trade with uj, believing that the yclloar-fev- er still prevails and that there is aa much danger (o health and life now as during Sep- tember or Octcb3r. That this is not so is abundantly proven by the following very pos- itive statement which b2ars the signatures of tiix of our best physicians, gentlemen of known probity and integrity and of great experience in yellow-fev- er epidemics. This ourfht to ba enough to satisfy even the most timid: Memphis, Nore ruber 12, 1879.

We find it hard to meet our private obligations, and some of (be States allege that they cannot discharge their public ones. Yet the south can find more money than any other section of the country to gamble in cotton that i, to boy or sell futures. New York reports day by day meal ion the future market there aa being affected by southern orders to buy or to sell. It ia true this is better than keeping tho cotton in the gin or storage house wait-lu- g for higher prices, but whether spare cap- ital would not ultimately pay better if spent on improving lands and fences, and obtain- ing interior cattle, stock and the best agri- cultural implements for tillage, with some addition lo household comforts is ques- tion worth coc8;dering. Cotton gambling, like ether gambling, arises from a desire to make money "in a hurry," which is a pro- ceeding thoroughly bad in principle and in tract ici. The following from the . New York Bulletin tbows what New York exports know and think of southern folly: "IIotv baa it ever been? Wall Btreet vs. kouthorn speculation. Every one will fay Walt street have held tlwit bags open for the south to pour their millions into them. You may say last spring was an ex- ception. It ia true the south did make soma money in April and May, but lost it all in Juno and July. Wall street loaned the Kouth a fbw millions last ppring, but it was all paid bvlc with a heavy rate of interest in the rummer." Wall Kir eel holds its bngs open for the south to pour it millions into! Is this keen and cutting enough to open the eyes of some of the dupes? rOTTOM THOIIBLKIS ASU COT TO rKOMt'KCTS. A tolfgram published in the Appeal, from Olf&arn, the great cotton manufactur- ing town in Lancashire, England, and dated November 10th, tLatos that at a meeting cf olton mill owners there "the speakeit Btronv'ly censored tbe conduct of the Liver pool cotton ring, and one of them pcke cf the necessity of obtaining cotton direct from America, so as to frustrate the maneuvers of tho ring." There is curiosity to know what this ring is. and whit the nature of its oper- - ntioc?

Tbe repm. was not adopt; 1. I am Informed that It fallel tbroeh a misapprehension, ana as many of (be biethom hold that the b-- st Interests of tbe crau would bAubse.v. i, I, at their request, the recommendntlon, viz: Strike out ot Art. Ill, Sec 1, tbe words "second Monday In Nove-cber- and lnseuln their place the words 'foui.h Tuesday In Feb.uary." It seems most desirable that tbls Grand Lodge oonveue on Tuesday, so as to avoid compelling rep- resentatives to travel on Sunuay, ts reach this city In lime for the opening. REINSTATEMENT OF In regard to the reinstateniei.t or the repou says: I would recommend tbe adoption of an t Jtct as follows: Lodges have tbe power to Inflict the penalty cf for tbe of dues; but such penally can only be luiuued arier one mouth's no- tice to the delinquent lo pay bis arreatxjes. Any brvlher so unalllliated may be reinstated as a menv ber by a two-thir- vote of the lodge, at a stated pnoidUti all his arrearages may be set-tie- d up U thJ time ot reinstating him." I B'Dily believe thai the adoption of this edict will remove from our lodges a proline source of discord and weakness. There are thousands ot good. Influ- ential brethren among us who are Ulscontuctrd from lot tea, who contribute nothing to tho s.ppouct Kreemasonry, who bave been cut olt by unfixed laws, and wuo would gladly return to tbelr lodges If the bugbear of a qsanlmous vole did not rise up before tbem. Such In forced are stumbling-block- s In the Jutisdluion ot uevl? every lodge. NON-- FILIATION. The question has been frequently propounded to me: "What shall be dono with the thousands of Masons In Tennessee who are net voluntarily con- nected with lodges, and do not contribute to the sup- port ot Freemasonry, morally or materially?" This question, I hope, will engage your earnest attention and result Ui wise leglslullou. Brethren surrender their right to demand Masonic burial, posltlc ns In MasonUi or to visit any lodge, when they sever their connection with tbe lodges of which tbey were once members; o it lodged frequently extend them these privileges without a demand. By these acts of grace the lodges them- selves place nou-af- f) Hates upon the same advanta- geous fooling aa their own faithful members, who bear toe heat god burden pi Me tiny, thereby doing themselves and the working, contributing eraft, grave Injustice. I would recommend an enactment of an edict as follows: r-- "Lodges will not permit brethren who remain over a year In from cbol' 3, to visit their communications or pautulpate In their proces- sions and public festivals. Neither will they but such voluntary with Masonic honors, unless two-thir- of the members present, at a meet- ing called for the purpose, shall vote so to do." The privilege enumerated In this rllct attach to lodge membership, mud n. to mere connection with the craft. A broth r who dlmlts his allowed twelve months In which to deposit his dlmlt In tbe lodge ot bis choice; and as hs volontaiily suirendered his rights, be may not complain of harshness at the pro- visions ot this edict. This edict would be an Invasion of the lights ot lodges. This Grand Lodge has the unquestioned power to forbid tbe admission to the ceremonies ot Its subordinates clandestinely made Masons, Masons from Jurisdiction with whom It declares The edict proposed does not exr-je- or mis- apply that unquestioned power. CONDITION OF THE LODGES. At the annual commrnlcatton of 1883, 1 was frst honored with a seat In this Grand Lodge, and since that time I have watched w.th anxiety the gradual decrease of our membership. When the paulsllty ot my brethren clothe i me, last yerr, with authority as Head of tbe Crr't, I deteim'ucl to inquire into tbe eiuses which w.wgnt tbls rnual falling off. By an examination ot Lod?e returns I found our membership to have b an as follows: In 1X73 we hsd...l.922iln 1876 we hftl. ..18.685 In 1874 we hp 1... 19,762 In 1877 we bad.. .17,911 In 1875wehad...l7.994!ld 1878 we had ..17.053 These Csjras show that In five years we lost 2,F.tfU more than we asqoircd. By a f ei .her examination I discovert 1 that one thousand and s'xty-seve- n Master Masons were raised In 1873, while only thrt 3 bundle 1 and eighty-seve- n were raise i in 1878. As tbe withdrawals numbered sixteen hundr; 1 and ninety-seve- n 'n 1873, and only seventeen hundred and forty-on- e In 1878, 1 began to Inquire af.jr the fuses that prevented profanes f'om seeking admission to our mystsiies. The "hard times," no doubt, had much to do w.th pre- venting many who be 1 con. Wed a favorable opinion of oit Institutions t om sending their applications te the lodges, but I could not avoid the Impression that blame might lie at the door of some of these lodges. Influen' id by this Impression, I detsrmlned to enter Into coi.spondenc3 with every lodge la the Juilsdlcllon, and leaia, If possible, what most Interfered w.th their pros pel ity. A'iev a painstaking and Impartial examination of the ten Itoi controlled by Ihe Grand Lodge, I am onviueed that we have TOO MINT LODGES, and I believe It Is my imperative duty to call your attention to that fact. The returns for 1878 show one hundred and two lodges, with a membership In eesh less than thirty. There were thirty lodges with a menibeiwhlp less than twenty each. One lodge re- ported only eleven members, and another only ten members. I am satisfied that the concentration of brethren In a tew lodges, In the less populous counties, would add to the attraction of those lodge, and b.lng about the benignant re- sults for which all Masonic bodies are orgaa'zad.

Chicago, November 12. The morning, which had Ions: been looked for as the inaugu- ration day ot unusual festivities attending the annual meeting ot the Army of the Ten- nessee, opened with a dull, rainy day, and np to eight o'clock rain fell in brisk showers. On toward nine o'clock tbe sky became brighter, and the sun came out, at times mak- ing the prospect more favorable for the pro- cession and tcr decorating. At ten o'clock the Army of the Tennessee began its annual meeting at their headquarters in tbe Palmer house. General- - W. T. Sherman presided. General W. . Strong informed the four hun- dred and fifty members present that they would act as a guard of honor to General Grant, and follow him when he leaves the line ot procession. Owing to the short time lef t for the completion of arrangements, the business meeting . was a- journed un- til four o'clock in tbe afternoon, and the rest of the session was taken np with ar- ranging the details ot the procession. The principal feature of the day is the reception of General Grant by the citizens of Chicago and the Army of Tennessee. In this recep- tion all classes will participate, so that the affair is devoid of political significance. This was understood before the Democrats and the Illinois National Guards would consent to take part. The Republicans who oppose a third term of Grant for the Presidency are participating and doiag honor to a great sol- dier and distinguished citizen. The address of welcome will be made by Mayor Harrison during the afternoon. The streets along the line of march are profusely decorated with emblems of wel- come and congratulation. As no arches were erected, there is little to call for esspecial mention where all are about equally merited as to design. The newspaper offices gener- ally have done fine with fUgs, bunting and evergreens. The theaters are noticeably ar- tistic. Scarcely a building alonsr tbe line of march L'cks some sort of decoration. The train from Galena bearing General Grant ar- rived at Park row, on tbe South Side, at one o'clock. At this time there was a havy rain, but in a few minutes the clouds were lifted and the sun shone brightly. General Grant alighted with his party fron the special car of President Ackerman, of tbe Illinois Cen- tral railroad, and, taking bis seat in the car- riage provided for him, the procession at once moved in the following order: TlfB FBOCEBSIQH.

General Grant left the procession at the Palmer house and reviewed it from a temporary bal- cony, it wa; of jreet length, requiring over two hours to pass a - given point. There1 'was 'a dense Bid ap- preciative crowd along he whole line of march; which cheered ti:s notable members and orgahijpttibns of the'prc?b'as:on, but gave their logdsjt applause to Generals (rant, Shetmsn and Sheridan.

They know we have new a nation ; that we are a nation or strong ana lnieuifrent ana orave people, can&ble of iudelns and knowing our rights, and de termined on all occasions to maintain them against either domestic or foreign foes, and that is tbe reception jou, as a nation, have received through me while I was abroad. THE AB.MT OI TENNESSEE held an adjourned meeting at four o'clock this afternoon, at which there was a very large audience present, which, upon the ar- rival of General Grant and sum, brct? '."to hearty applause. Upon the stage were seated man or uis prominent efheers, including Generals Sherman and Sheridan. Governor Cullom, Mayor Harrison and other dignita- ries were also present. Governor Cullom, of Illinois, and Mayor Harrison, welcomed the Army of Tennessee, and were responded to by General feherman. Judge Gresham followed, when General Sherman arose and announced the conclusion of the session. The audience then arose, and set up shouts for Grant. This was persisted in until he arose in response. Ho suggested that it was better to follow the programme, as he was not down for a speech. The audi- ence laughed and renewed the demand for a speech.. General Grant thereupon deliberately drew from his pocket a manuscript, and as deliberately read the following LONGEST SPEECH OF HIS LIFE: After an absence of several years from the gather- ings of theSoeietyof the Army of the Tennessee, it affords me heartfelt pleasure to be again with yon, my earliest comrades In a great cod 11 let for the na- tionality and onion of all the State 1 under one free and always to bj maintained gt vernment. In my long absence from tbls country I liav had a most favorable opportunity for seeing and comparing In my own nil&d ur Institutions with 1 hose of all European sonntrles and most of those of Asia. Comparing our resources, developed and dormant, the capacity and energy of our people for upholding the government and developing Its re- sources with most of the civilized people of the world. Everywhere from England to Jpan, from Rus- sia to Spain and Portugal we are understood, our resources hlehly apprecla'ed, and the skill, energy and Intelligence of the citizens recog- nized. My receptions bave been your receptions. Tbey hsve been everywhere kind, and an acknowl- edgment that the United States Is a nation a strong. Independent and free nation somposedot strong, brave and intelligent peonle, capa- ble of Judging their rights and ready to maintain ihem at all hazards. This Is a n association, but Is composed of men who are united In a determination that no foe, domestic or foreign, shall Interfere between us and tbe maintenance of our grand, free and enlight- ened institutions, and ths unity of all tbe States. The area of our country. Us fertility, the energy and resources of our people, with tbe sparslty of our population, ompared to tbe ares, postpones the day, for generations to come, when our descendants will bave to consider the question of how the soil Is to support tbem: how the most can be produced to support human life with- out reference to the taste or desires ot the people, and whn but tew can exercise the privilege of the pUln luxury ot selecting the ai tides of focd they will eat, the quantity and quality ot the clothing they wear.but will remain the Hbundantof all who possess energy and strength and make good use ot them. If we remain true to ourselves such a count, y is one to be proud of. I am proud of It, Proud that I am an Amei ican citizen. Evei y citizen noi i.h . south, east and nest enjoys a common heritage and sbouid fejl an equat irlde. I am glad these roclety meetings are kept up so long after the events la t which in a sense, they commemorate bave passed away. They do not serve to keep op sectional feeling or bitterness toward oir lato foe, but tbey do not keep op the feel- ing that we are a rjatlon, and that it must be pre- serve 1 one and ucdlvislble. We feel and maintain that those who touht, and they foi"?ht bravely, on the oppostto side f'om as, have equal claims with oirr elves in tbe many blessings of our great and common countiy. We claim for them tbe right to travel all over tbls broad land and select where they plere; tbe tight f settle and be- come citizens, and to enjoy their polltlml and relig- ious convictions, f ,ee from all molestation or ostra- cism, either on account of them or their connection with the past.

Calm Review ot the Political Mltna-tio- w Iie Tae X,oa of Thnrmis-Ta- te Need of the Soath for Hyst-psth- y sad Respect Bather than Iieglslatloa. To a representative of tha Philadelphia Titties, who visited him on Sunday, Senator Bayard talked inforrrially for three hours. Mr. Bayard went abroad entirely, as he sajs, on Mrs. Bayard's account, t enable her to visit the springs of Bohemia. He has lost the run of politics, he said, somuchconfnsicn bad there been, especially in the rpiks of the Democratic party. The election in New York was still in doubt as to figures, and no one could tell, he thought, what the result precisely meant. The Democrats of that Stats have yielded to pasiion and personal differences, Vhile the'' republicans have worked unitedly, parties are only the means to an end. If the cause is a worthy one, of course every worthy means that would tend to succesa is to be cherished. But if parties are to become a mere matter of personal am- bition and partisan wrangle, then the future of the country is not worth talking about. ' 3 Senator Bayard said : "I know nothing pf . IJew York politics, and more than that neyer knew any one outside of New York who did. Tbe State ia in itselt a very vast community. There are five million active and intelligent people there, being the center of the commerce and wealth of the Unton. State atfars there alway overrule Federal affairs, and the result is, that the rest of us, who live in small communities in which the nahcnil feeling overrules all others, cannot judge of the taen' and events to whom such considerations are secondary in politics." 'Speaking of this dgminant idea in few York politics, which subordinates national issues totite affairs. Senator Bayard said: "1 am a great believer in local ertf govern ment as the c!y taeans of peDe'taatig our Union. I do not believe the Union can be successfully governed nnless people of each Sttte are allowed to control their domestic affaiia. It is the school of American citizens. A child to walk must not be forbidden to take his first step i? tB nsei.ii To the tiuestion why the Democratlo perty had drifted away irom its old moorings, Senator Bayard said: "I tb'rk there has biea a palpable k?k"of poip ose.

As for h9 P.idential aueal "on. Senator Bayard sr'd hat bis un! jjaen seemed to be so senaa cir' f,iat it was difficult to know what heir opinions really were. 'There is a sen err 1 desire." he said, 'for the weiffe er, tne eonry'and the preserva- tion of our gcod government, that is very far bsyond rnytb'ig like personpl champion ship. ' Senator Bayard would not epeek of a remedy. un me raniomauon ot aacbiueiy in poli- tics, "so long." he said. Vaa our elections are free, our people haye it in their power, not only to avoid the repetitions cf mistakes, but to retrace their steps, therefore, I think that aa intelligent self-intere- though it mav not prevent the people from blundering, will always instruct them to recover from the s, ' provided the spfety-valv- e of free election is left open." Speaking of Mr. Thurman, Mr. Bayard said, "if Senator Thurman is to be out of the senate 1 look upon it as a very creat loss to this country. I think his defeat, if such -- I it te, is greatly to te deployed, and that every uan in tbe 1 tush ought so to regard it. He is a man of the most perfect puiity of character, and ot first-clas- s abilities. " To the question that the great fight would be between Blaine and Conkling, Senator Bayard said, "In all these mere personal at. aggies I take vew little interest. and have no kaowWk?. I know nothing of tbem, and do not want to know. Suppose one or the other of these men become Presi- dent, what would it indicate? They are both well-know- both have been a long time before tbe public, and their characters are1 pretty well understood. I have never agreed with thetrj in their opinions or their coursr, and of course 1 should be sorry to see sich people succeed." "What does the south need now in the wav of legislation from congress?"

Mobile and Ohio debentures and tbe Erie lssu s being rao-- t prominent In tbe Im- provement Mobile and Ohio recorded the greVest advance, but the great feature of the market was heavy purchases of Erie Issues, which advanced sharply, new second consols rising from 87 to IK), and funded fives f.ora H3V to 87.

Tbe excitement was at fever I eat thronyhout, and In many cases not only were lbs h'gbest trices of the year made, but the hlgoest e.er attained. The dialings. which were on an enormous scale, were well dlstilbutrd and taxed severely the capacity or the stock telegraph Instruments to report them, and orders pourr 1 in so continuously from all parts ot the country that brokers In many Instances experienced considerable dioiculty in - executing them. Nearly the ent-- e list participated In the acttvlty, and many f locks heretofore quiet became prominent In the dealings. The large and Increas- ing traflic of the railroads consequent upon tbe gen- eral r vval of business througnout the country of course had much to do with tbe condition of affa'rs but In a number of Instances there rjre spe- cial causes at work to put up this or that stock. Tbe greatest advance was In Nashville, Chattanooga and St, Louts, which sold up irom 6mi to 83, closing at 714, on a statement that the president of the com- pany bas quietly bought a controlling Interest in the Western and Atlantic, whlcb tans from Chattanooga to Atlanta, and I regarded as the key to tbe south- ern railroad system.

In addition to the influence mentioned above, a further Impetus was given to the advaoeins market by reports that ten million ft&ars wort oi bonds kJI aooa be repurchased for the government sln'clne und. These reports are' probably baaed broti tbe fact that for the first business days of No- vember' the customs and Internal levonue receipts bave aggregated over 81,000,000. a day at an aver-b- 4, ana the receipts, from Customs for the first of the mouth aerfge i about Sn2o.000 a day.

    nn aa actively encaged in lying about na atbey wore lust jear, when, for months afterthe epidemic had pasveJ away, they con-

    tinued to assert that yellow-fev- er still raged

    and that it was not safe for any one to visita or buy good from us. Many of our lead-ing merchants are daily in receipt of lettersand telegranw staling that this infamousmethod of warfare is being indulged in, andthat the fears of our country friends are ex-cited beyond measure. They refuse to visitor trade with uj, believing that the yclloar-fev- er

    still prevails and that there is aa muchdanger (o health and life now as during Sep-tember or Octcb3r. That this is not so isabundantly proven by the following very pos-itive statement which b2ars the signatures oftiix of our best physicians, gentlemen ofknown probity and integrity and of greatexperience in yellow-fev- er epidemics. Thisourfht to ba enough to satisfy even the most

    timid:Memphis, Nore ruber 12, 1879.

    HPKCIAL ASNOlSCKJIKSr-TH- KYVRKKlYY APPEAL,

    The Weekly Appeal, the larg.st andbeat paper of its claw now offered to the publie, will, Ircm the pterent time, be served

    to subscribers at the reduced rate of one dol-

    lar a jcar. This will no doubt be welcomemews to the thousands who have for years

    m cf them for more than a q aarter of acentury been constant readers and steady

    friends of the ArrF.AL. At this' very lowpi-ic- the Weekly Appeal will be foundone of the cheapest, as it ia one of the bestnewspapers in the country. It will containthirty six long columns of telegraphic news,

    market reports, editorials, letters from all

    part of the adjoining States, in a word,

    everything that is necessary to a well-fille- d

    and well-toaduct- newspaper. Subscrip-

    tions forwarded now will have prompt at-

    tention. .

    We are very poor in the south. We findit hard to meet our private obligations, andsome of (be States allege that they cannotdischarge their public ones. Yet the southcan find more money than any other sectionof the country to gamble in cotton that i,to boy or sell futures. New York reports dayby day meal ion the future market there aabeing affected by southern orders to buy orto sell. It ia true this is better than keepingtho cotton in the gin or storage house wait-lu- g

    for higher prices, but whether spare cap-ital would not ultimately pay better if spenton improving lands and fences, and obtain-ing interior cattle, stock and the best agri-cultural implements for tillage, with someaddition lo household comforts is ques-tion worth coc8;dering. Cotton gambling,like ether gambling, arises from a desire tomake money "in a hurry," which is a pro-ceeding thoroughly bad in principle and intract ici. The following from the . NewYork Bulletin tbows what New Yorkexports know and think ofsouthern folly: "IIotv baa it ever been?Wall Btreet vs. kouthorn speculation. Everyone will fay Walt street have held tlwit bagsopen for the south to pour their millions intothem. You may say last spring was an ex-ception. It ia true the south did make somamoney in April and May, but lost it all inJuno and July. Wall street loaned theKouth a fbw millions last ppring, but it wasall paid bvlc with a heavy rate of interest inthe rummer." Wall Kir eel holds its bngsopen for the south to pour it millions into!Is this keen and cutting enough to open theeyes of some of the dupes?

    A tolfgram published in the Appeal,from Olf&arn, the great cotton manufactur-ing town in Lancashire, England, and datedNovember 10th, tLatos that at a meeting cfolton mill owners there "the speakeitBtronv'ly censored tbe conduct of the Liverpool cotton ring, and one of them pcke cfthe necessity of obtaining cotton direct fromAmerica, so as to frustrate the maneuvers oftho ring." There is curiosity to know whatthis ring is. and whit the nature of its oper- -ntioc? The following from the New YoikBulletin, received from its Liverpool corre-spondent, fjplaios these matters and givesother iuterertinz coltoi new:

    It seems most desirable that tbls Grand Lodgeoonveue on Tuesday, so as to avoid compelling rep-resentatives to travel on Sunuay, ts reach this cityIn lime for the opening.

    REINSTATEMENT OFIn regard to the reinstateniei.t or

    the repou says:I would recommend tbe adoption of an t Jtct as

    follows:Lodges have tbe power to Inflict the penalty cf

    for tbe of dues; but suchpenally can only be luiuued arier one mouth's no-tice to the delinquent lo pay bis arreatxjes. Anybrvlher so unalllliated may be reinstated as a menvber by a two-thir- vote of the lodge, at a stated

    pnoidUti all his arrearages may be set-tie- dup U thJ time ot reinstating him."

    I B'Dily believe thai the adoption of this edict willremove from our lodges a proline source of discordand weakness. There are thousands ot good. Influ-ential brethren among us who are Ulscontuctrd fromlot tea, who contribute nothing to tho s.ppouctKreemasonry, who bave been cut olt by unfixed laws,and wuo would gladly return to tbelr lodges If thebugbear of a qsanlmous vole did not rise up beforetbem. Such In forced are stumbling-block- s

    In the Jutisdluion ot uevl? every lodge.NON-- FILIATION.

    The question has been frequently propounded tome: "What shall be dono with the thousands ofMasons In Tennessee who are net voluntarily con-nected with lodges, and do not contribute to the sup-port ot Freemasonry, morally or materially?" Thisquestion, I hope, will engage your earnest attentionand result Ui wise leglslullou.

    Brethren surrender their right to demand Masonicburial, posltlc ns In MasonUi or to visitany lodge, when they sever their connection with tbelodges of which tbey were once members; o it lodgedfrequently extend them these privileges without ademand. By these acts of grace the lodges them-selves place nou-af- f) Hates upon the same advanta-geous fooling aa their own faithful members, whobear toe heat god burden pi Me tiny, thereby doing

    themselves and the working, contributing eraft,grave Injustice.

    I would recommend an enactment of an edict asfollows:r-- "Lodges will not permit brethren who remainover a year In from cbol' 3, to visittheir communications or pautulpate In their proces-sions and public festivals. Neither will they butsuch voluntary with Masonic honors,unless two-thir- of the members present, at a meet-ing called for the purpose, shall vote so to do."

    The privilege enumerated In this rllct attach tolodge membership, mud n. to mere connection withthe craft. A broth r who dlmlts his allowed twelvemonths In which to deposit his dlmlt In tbe lodge otbis choice; and as hs volontaiily suirendered hisrights, be may not complain of harshness at the pro-visions ot this edict.

    This edict would be an Invasion of the lights otlodges. This Grand Lodge has the unquestionedpower to forbid tbe admission to the ceremonies otIts subordinates clandestinely made Masons, Masonsfrom Jurisdiction with whom It declares

    The edict proposed does not exr-je- or mis-apply that unquestioned power.

    CONDITION OF THE LODGES.At the annual commrnlcatton of 1883, 1 was frst

    honored with a seat In this Grand Lodge, and sincethat time I have watched w.th anxiety the gradualdecrease of our membership. When the paulslltyot my brethren clothe i me, last yerr, with authorityas Head of tbe Crr't, I deteim'ucl to inquire intotbe eiuses which w.wgnt tbls rnual falling off.

    By an examination ot Lod?e returns I found ourmembership to have b an as follows:In 1X73 we hsd...l.922iln 1876 we hftl. ..18.685In 1874 we hp 1... 19,762 In 1877 we bad.. .17,911In 1875wehad...l7.994!ld 1878 we had ..17.053

    These Csjras show that In five years we lost2,F.tfU more than we asqoircd.

    By a f ei .her examination I discovert 1 that onethousand and s'xty-seve- n Master Masons were raisedIn 1873, while only thrt 3 bundle 1 and eighty-seve- nwere raise i in 1878. As tbe withdrawals numberedsixteen hundr; 1 and ninety-seve- n 'n 1873, and onlyseventeen hundred and forty-on- e In 1878, 1 began toInquire af.jr the fuses that prevented profanesf'om seeking admission to our mystsiies. The"hard times," no doubt, had much to do w.th pre-venting many who be 1 con. Wed a favorable opinionof oit Institutions t om sending their applicationste the lodges, but I could not avoid the Impressionthat blame might lie at the door of some of theselodges. Influen' id by this Impression, I detsrmlnedto enter Into coi.spondenc3 with every lodge lathe Juilsdlcllon, and leaia, If possible, what mostInterfered w.th their pros pel ity.

    A'iev a painstaking and Impartial examination ofthe ten Itoi controlled by Ihe Grand Lodge, I amonviueed that we have

    TOO MINT LODGES,and I believe It Is my imperative duty to call yourattention to that fact. The returns for 1878 showone hundred and two lodges, with a membership Ineesh less than thirty. There were thirty lodges witha menibeiwhlp less than twenty each. One lodge re-ported only eleven members, and another only tenmembers. I am satisfied that theconcentration of brethren In a tew lodges, In theless populous counties, would add to the attractionof those lodge, and b.lng about the benignant re-sults for which all Masonic bodies are orgaa'zad.

    Chicago, November 12. The morning,which had Ions: been looked for as the inaugu-ration day ot unusual festivities attendingthe annual meeting ot the Army of the Ten-nessee, opened with a dull, rainy day, and npto eight o'clock rain fell in brisk showers.On toward nine o'clock tbe sky becamebrighter, and the sun came out, at times mak-ing the prospect more favorable for the pro-cession and tcr decorating. At ten o'clockthe Army of the Tennessee began its annualmeeting at their headquarters in tbe Palmerhouse. General- - W. T. Sherman presided.General W. . Strong informed the four hun-dred and fifty members present that theywould act as a guard of honor to GeneralGrant, and follow him when he leaves theline ot procession. Owing to the short timelef t for the completion of arrangements, thebusiness meeting . was a- journed un-til four o'clock in tbe afternoon, andthe rest of the session was taken np with ar-ranging the details ot the procession. Theprincipal feature of the day is the receptionof General Grant by the citizens of Chicagoand the Army of Tennessee. In this recep-tion all classes will participate, so that theaffair is devoid of political significance. Thiswas understood before the Democrats andthe Illinois National Guards would consentto take part. The Republicans who opposea third term of Grant for the Presidency areparticipating and doiag honor to a great sol-dier and distinguished citizen. The addressof welcome will be made by Mayor Harrisonduring the afternoon.

    The streets along the line of march areprofusely decorated with emblems of wel-come and congratulation. As no arches wereerected, there is little to call for esspecialmention where all are about equally meritedas to design. The newspaper offices gener-ally have done fine with fUgs, bunting andevergreens. The theaters are noticeably ar-tistic. Scarcely a building alonsr tbe line ofmarch L'cks some sort of decoration. Thetrain from Galena bearing General Grant ar-rived at Park row, on tbe South Side, at oneo'clock. At this time there was a havy rain,but in a few minutes the clouds were liftedand the sun shone brightly. General Grantalighted with his party fron the special carof President Ackerman, of tbe Illinois Cen-tral railroad, and, taking bis seat in the car-riage provided for him, the procession atonce moved in the following order:

    THE AB.MT OI TENNESSEEheld an adjourned meeting at four o'clockthis afternoon, at which there was a verylarge audience present, which, upon the ar-rival of General Grant and sum, brct? '."tohearty applause. Upon the stage were seatedman or uis prominent efheers, includingGenerals Sherman and Sheridan. GovernorCullom, Mayor Harrison and other dignita-ries were also present. Governor Cullom, ofIllinois, and Mayor Harrison, welcomedthe Army of Tennessee, and wereresponded to by General feherman. JudgeGresham followed, when General Shermanarose and announced the conclusion of thesession. The audience then arose, and setup shouts for Grant. This was persisted inuntil he arose in response. Ho suggestedthat it was better to follow the programme,as he was not down for a speech. The audi-ence laughed and renewed the demand for aspeech.. General Grant thereupon deliberately

    drew from his pocket a manuscript, and asdeliberately read the following

    LONGEST SPEECH OF HIS LIFE:After an absence of several years from the gather-

    ings of theSoeietyof the Army of the Tennessee, itaffords me heartfelt pleasure to be again with yon,my earliest comrades In a great cod 11 let for the na-tionality and onion of all the State 1 under one freeand always to bj maintained gt vernment. In mylong absence from tbls country I liav had a mostfavorable opportunity for seeing and comparingIn my own nil&d ur Institutions with1 hose of all European sonntrles and most of thoseof Asia. Comparing our resources, developed anddormant, the capacity and energy of our people forupholding the government and developing Its re-sources with most of the civilized people of the world.Everywhere from England to Jpan, from Rus-sia to Spain and Portugal we are understood, ourresources hlehly apprecla'ed, and theskill, energy and Intelligence of the citizens recog-nized. My receptions bave been your receptions.Tbey hsve been everywhere kind, and an acknowl-edgment that the United States Is a nation astrong. Independent and free nation somposedotstrong, brave and intelligent peonle, capa-ble of Judging their rights and readyto maintain ihem at all hazards.This Is a n association, but Is composedof men who are united In a determination that nofoe, domestic or foreign, shall Interfere between usand tbe maintenance of our grand, free and enlight-ened institutions, and ths unity of all tbe States.The area of our country. Us fertility, theenergy and resources of our people,with tbe sparslty of our population, ompared totbe ares, postpones the day, for generations to come,when our descendants will bave to consider thequestion of how the soil Is to support tbem: how themost can be produced to support human life with-out reference to the taste or desires ot thepeople, and whn but tew can exercise theprivilege of the pUln luxury ot selectingthe ai tides of focd they will eat, the quantity andquality ot the clothing they wear.but will remain theHbundantof all who possess energy and strengthand make good use ot them. If we remain true toourselves such a count, y is one to beproud of. I am proud of It, Proudthat I am an Amei ican citizen. Evei y citizen noi i.h .south, east and nest enjoys a common heritage andsbouid fejl an equat irlde. I am glad theseroclety meetings are kept up so long afterthe events la t which in a sense, theycommemorate bave passed away. They donot serve to keep op sectional feeling or bitternesstoward oir lato foe, but tbey do not keep op the feel-ing that we are a rjatlon, and that it must be pre-serve 1 one and ucdlvislble. We feel and maintainthat those who touht, and they foi"?ht bravely, onthe oppostto side f'om as, have equal claims withoirr elves in tbe many blessings of ourgreat and common countiy. We claim forthem tbe right to travel all over tbls broad land andselect where they plere; tbe tight f settle and be-come citizens, and to enjoy their polltlml and relig-ious convictions, f ,ee from all molestation or ostra-cism, either on account of them or their connectionwith the past. We ask nothing more for ourselves,and wou'd rejoice to see them become powerfulrivals In tne development of our great resources, andin tbe acquisition of all that should be desirable Inthis lite, and also n the patriotism and love ofcountry.

    815N ATOK BAYAKD'ii VIEWS

    A. Calm Review ot the Political Mltna-tio- wIie Tae

    X,oa of Thnrmis-Ta- te Needof the Soath for Hyst-psth- y

    sad RespectBather thanIieglslatloa.

    To a representative of tha PhiladelphiaTitties, who visited him on Sunday, SenatorBayard talked inforrrially for three hours.Mr. Bayard went abroad entirely, as he sajs,on Mrs. Bayard's account, t enable her tovisit the springs of Bohemia. He has lostthe run of politics, he said, somuchconfnsicnbad there been, especially in the rpiks of theDemocratic party. The election in NewYork was still in doubt as to figures, and noone could tell, he thought, what the resultprecisely meant. The Democrats of thatStats have yielded to pasiion and personaldifferences, Vhile the'' republicans haveworked unitedly, parties are only the meansto an end. If the cause is a worthy one, ofcourse every worthy means that would tendto succesa is to be cherished. But if partiesare to become a mere matter of personal am-bition and partisan wrangle, then the futureof the country is not worth talkingabout. ' 3 Senator Bayard said : "I knownothing pf . IJew York politics, andmore than that neyer knew any one outsideof New York who did. Tbe State ia in itselta very vast community. There are five millionactive and intelligent people there, being thecenter of the commerce and wealth of theUnton. State atfars there alway overruleFederal affairs, and the result is, that therest of us, who live in small communities inwhich the nahcnil feeling overrules allothers, cannot judge of the taen' and eventsto whom such considerations are secondaryin politics."

    'Speaking of this dgminant idea in fewYork politics, which subordinates nationalissues totite affairs. Senator Bayard said:"1 am a great believer in local ertf government as the c!y taeans of peDe'taatig ourUnion. I do not believe the Union can besuccessfully governed nnless people of eachSttte are allowed to control their domesticaffaiia. It is the school of American citizens.A child to walk must not be forbidden to takehis first step i? tB nsei.ii

    To the tiuestion why the Democratlo pertyhad drifted away irom its old moorings,Senator Bayard said: "I tb'rk there hasbiea a palpable k?k"of poip ose. Ihey havebeen in opposition. They hae bsen bo longexiled rrora power that; (hey bate not beenwilling tj wa;t calmly and qrietfy the vindi-cation of their pMnciples. There ha? been amoral blindness in the wanuer of the;v poh ti-er' management in tak;ng np the cast offexpedients of their opponent?. That hasbeen timea most marvelous thing, that menshould be content " pick uo these discardederpedientl. I t;nk that this result bas beenather the work of a clisa than of a popular

    movement." Had-.J- ! speculators have beenve.y willing to use the great orgn;zation toimprove their p.TJonal ( indition.'

    benaf ir Laycrd ti ld at exeat'iength uncnthe ff 'se eeonotny of nefo slavery. President Lr,nr"'q s proclamation, was, bethought a real t3iefit 1 1 fVie whole south.end he nad never a n r ty one at the southwho wr- - not clad when slaveiy win at anenU.

    As for h9 P.idential aueal "on. SenatorBayard sr'd hat bis un! jjaen seemed tobe so senaa cir' f,iat it was difficult toknow what heir opinions really were.'There is a sen err 1 desire." he said, 'for

    the weiffe er, tne eonry'and the preserva-tion of our gcod government, that is veryfar bsyond rnytb'ig like personpl championship. ' Senator Bayard would not epeek ofa remedy.

    un me raniomauon ot aacbiueiy in poli-tics, "so long." he said. Vaa our elections arefree, our people haye it in their power, notonly to avoid the repetitions cf mistakes, butto retrace their steps, therefore, I think thataa intelligent self-intere- though it mavnot prevent the people from blundering, willalways instruct them to recover from the

    s, ' provided the spfety-valv- e of freeelection is left open."

    Speaking of Mr. Thurman, Mr. Bayardsaid, "if Senator Thurman is to be out ofthe senate 1 look upon it as a very creat lossto this country. I think his defeat, if such --Iit te, is greatly to te deployed, and thatevery uan in tbe 1 tush ought so to regardit. He is a man of the most perfect puiity ofcharacter, and ot first-clas- s abilities. "

    To the question that the great fightwould be between Blaine and Conkling,Senator Bayard said, "In all these merepersonal at. aggies I take vew little interest.and have no kaowWk?. I know nothing oftbem, and do not want to know. Supposeone or the other of these men become Presi-dent, what would it indicate? They areboth well-know- both have been a longtime before tbe public, and their charactersare1 pretty well understood. I have neveragreed with thetrj in their opinions or theircoursr, and of course 1 should be sorry tosee sich people succeed."

    "What does the south need now in thewav of legislation from congress?"

    "The Bouth does not need legislation. Thesouth, needs sympathy and respect. In myjudgnent what tSey need is a realising sensethat '.hey are safely and securely in thouaiuii uuuna up in its destinies, in whichtbey ire to share the blessings aa well as theburdens. I would not treat this Union aa anexpermenf;. 1 would treat it as a fixed fact:tnaUney weve ia the union and are rmincr tostay there- - that they are going to be part of

    Many Cases Sot Only Were the HighestPrices or the Year Made, bnt tba

    Highest Ever Attained toTne Dealiugs on anEnornions Scale.

    Yesterday was a field day in the stock marketof New York. The excitement waa high allday, and prices ruled beyond any precedent,furnishing enough data to convince the motstupid and perverse Greenbacker that thetheories of finance commonly called the"Ohio idea" ought to be. if they are not nt-- t

    'rly played out by tbe election experiences inOhio.

    NEW YORK, November 12. fUllroad bondswere strong and buoyant to day, with an advanceof 1 to percent. Mobile and Ohio debentures andtbe Erie lssu s being rao-- t prominent In tbe Im-provement Mobile and Ohio recorded the greVestadvance, but the great feature of the market washeavy purchases of Erie Issues, which advancedsharply, new second consols rising from 87 to IK),and funded fives f.ora H3V to 87. In the new sec-ond consols, transactions egg regaled about S 1 .600,-OO-

Tbe excitement was at feverI eat thronyhout, and In many cases not only werelbs h'gbest trices of the year made,but the hlgoest e.er attained. Thedialings. which were on an enormousscale, were well dlstilbutrd and taxed severely thecapacity or the stock telegraph Instruments to reportthem, and orders pourr 1 in so continuously from allparts ot the country that brokers In many Instancesexperienced considerable dioiculty in - executingthem. Nearly the ent-- e list participated In theacttvlty, and many f locks heretofore quiet becameprominent In the dealings. The large and Increas-ing traflic of the railroads consequent upon tbe gen-eral r vval of business througnout the country ofcourse had much to do with tbe condition of affa'rs

    but In a number of Instances there rjre spe-cial causes at work to put up this or that stock. Tbegreatest advance was In Nashville, Chattanooga andSt, Louts, which sold up irom 6mi to 83, closing at714, on a statement that the president of the com-pany bas quietly bought a controlling Interest in theWestern and Atlantic, whlcb tans from Chattanoogato Atlanta, and I regarded as the key to tbe south-ern railroad system. One of tbe principal featuresof the market was the 1 rge transactions in Brie,cbletly in common stock, which rose 2Vt per cent;the prefeii-e- stock advancing tt percent. The up-ward movement In these stocks, also In tbe bonds,is based ui on tbe large and Increasing traffic of thecompany and the general improvement In the con-dition of tbe rirooeitv: the earnlnra for twnher mmeve' 8200,000 greater tuttn those of the same monthast jenr, wuicu was oue oi ine neaviast monuis tor
