Papal Intolerance Of Masonic Charity.
PAPAL INTOLERANCE OF MASONIC CHARITY .
WE are indebted to the columns of Le Monde Maconnique for the following evidence of the strict obedience which Roman Catholic priests render to the precepts of that holy religion of which they are professedly the ministers . An aged Freemason , whose house had been swept away ,
and whose wife was drowned by the inundation of the Garonne , succeeded in saving himself , but in a condition , both mental and physical , worthy of the deepest commiseration . The Lodge of which he had been a member , having contributed its mite to tho general subscription ,
charged two of its members to inquire specially into the condition of their brother , and render him assistance . Having accomplished their purpose , the Committee of Inquiry addressed the following letter to their unfortunate fellow-Mason : —
" VF . UY DEAR . BROTHER , —Tho terrible disaster which has plunged you and your family into mourning and desolation has been deeply felt by our Lodge , which has not forgotten that yon wero made a Mason within the precincts of its Temple . Bro . H . and I are charged with the sad mission of interpreting to you tho deop feeling of
sympathy which animates the brethren of our Orieut , under tho irreparable misfortune which has just befallen you . " Is there any need to remind you that , among the virtues whoso cultivation is enjoined on all our members , there shine in tho very front , work of all : IIopo , that soft illusion of the heart , which softens
onr bitterest regrets by carrying us beyond that tomb where rest those beings who are dear to ns ; Resignation , to preserve us from despair , and to enable ns to bear with fortitude the rudest shocks of adversity : Self-denial , that superhuman virtue , which makes us love the sacrifice , oven of life itself , in order that we may fly to the aid of
a brother in peril : Fraternity , which far from being a meaningless word in onr months , is as it wero the life-giving torch of our heart , the indissoluble bond which unites all Masons spread over tho surface of the earth . " You are not ignorant that what tho world calls liberalities , are
not considered among us either as a matter for ostentation by him who gives , or as a subject of humiliation by him who receives . All of ns have a duty to perform towards our fellows , and each has a right to some slight aid from others .
" At our last meeting we made a collection on behalf of a brother , who was a sufferer by the inundation , and we hasten to address to you tho proceeds in bank-notes . Our regret is that , having regard to the greatness of your calamity , the amount is so small . "
Five days afterwards , one of those who signed the foregoing letter , received a packet , containing the letter , the bank-notes , and a letter unsigned , to the following effect : — "The state of M . X . has been very serious these few days , and
has not permitted him to take earlier notice of your letter . Ho thanks yon for your sympathies and your kind intentions' towards him ; bnt as he is not a member of your society , ho cannot , nnder anv circumstances , accept tho aid you have so kindly proffered . "
" This would seem improbable in the hi ghest degree , " says M . Can bet , the writer , " if we could not trace in it the intervention of certain admirers of the Syllalnis , bigoted preachers of a Avar of extermination against Freemasonry , who had surrounded the unfortunate our brethren would
have succoured , and who succeeded in enacting so pitiable a deceit in his name . " In the face of such facts comment is superfluous . May it never be the fate of England , or any other enlightened country , where Masonry doth flourish , to pass under the
yoke of this contemptible Ultramontane priesthood ! A righteous Roman Catholic Priest would never thus have disgraced his hol y calling , but an Ultramontane bigot will stand at nothing , if onl y he can help forward the base ends of his sect .
