I have seen this crime go unpunished for near- ly five years, because the-oaths which masonry enjoins have bound down the masons who were privy to it, with a power stronger than the law, so that detection has.heen rendered timpossible, E have seen our press in a state of vas- salage to this Institution, to an extent that ,is appalling. Ihave seen the In- stitution steep itself in pollution so that no waters can cleanse it, by retaining in full membership eruninals legally convicted of having had a hand in tis crime, though not absolutely the main actors, and I have seen the press silent ; still seen' it cringe, still bow the knee to masonry. 1 have seen the Same press inveighing against publica- tions that aim at exposing these enor- mities, whilst insensible to the first rule of justice, it excludes the publications themselves from its columns. 'To this practice, hy which the moral condition tustitution; though-fthad a ~host in-its service ten thousand times stronger than any it has yet paraded. 1.
