The Grand Orient Of France Before The Craft Universal.

THE GRAND ORIENT OF FRANCE BEFORE THE CRAFT UNIVERSAL .

[ COMMUNICATED . ] JT is well worthy of note that the regrettable action talccn by some Masonic Powers against the Grand Orient , nearly two years ago , was not allowed tointerforo , in the least degree , with the fulfilment of its tlnty of Love and Charity towards tho members of the Brotherhood , to whatever country , race , nationality , or Eite they may havo

belonged . Nor is ifc possible to say now , as then predicted by a hostile press , that the result of tho assumed right of excommunication exercised against that Body , has by any means proved to be detrimental to the union and cohesion of the subordinate Lodges . That the Grand Orient is far from being disintegrated is , most

evidently , an incontestable fact . On tho contrary , prosperous and successful , the Grand Orient has since wisely maintained , towards the Masonic world , a dignified and unconcerned attitude , busily engaged in the good deeds and practical duties of true Freemasonry , and almost unmindful , so to speak , of all the frivolous talk ,

misleading statements , and uncdifying criticisms made against its conduct . Thus , it has done well to strengthen the position it has taken , by showing , on all occasions , fraternal kindness to all , even to those who would be its detractors and accusers , and further to deserve commendation by not looking for any appreciative motives in their

behaviour towards it , nor any due right iu their censure against its opinions . Condemned without being heard , it has not paused to ask of its judges the evidence upon which they have delivered judgment , nor the text of the law which they are supposed to have rightl y invoked , and whose penalty they have so authoritatively ay-
