It arose in 1776. Its members took the name “ Illuminati because as they proclaimed to their bdhercnta, they would illuminate the world with the Aurora of philosophy; they would ray forthfrom Seerefc Societies os from so many centers, the light of science over all tuitions'; diffuse the purest principles of virtue; and reinstate mankind in primeval innocence and happiness. Such were the professions of the Illuminati of France.They spread their affiHiated associations through Germany,, Switzerland and Italy, j Their members hive even been regarded as the authors of the French revolution with all its horrors.

These blanks are printed from forms approved by all the Judges of the State, and are correct in every particmJar.. Secret Political Societies.It i not, perhaps, generally known to srhat .extent secret political societies have prevailed - io ..various parts of the world. Their existence in this oouiitry has heretofore been1 unknown; and as their leading principle in other countries has been secrecy, littile has been known publicly about them, elsewhere than in their own locality.The history of these societies is singular,from their acte after the specious promises ofthe Illuuiiliati nt the inception of their organization. Whether they were serious or by pocritical at first affects not the amount of ^ eiii they caused to society. 'With us, U t sjrcd see ms probable that the objects proposed aj. anRclion I steadOnTh of Ms Couna Pr otherthey really at that time meant only to aecom plish. But the temptation of power combined with the irresponsibility supposed to , nual be secured by secrecy, was then, as it ever ^Df has, and in all probability ever will be, too w strong a temptation for the resistance of, LitUw Ihuman virtue. . pyThe other moist cont-idcrablc associations of j h, this kind were the « Philadelphia Society” derksad it at the same time affords a warning i-n -p.^nc0. thc “League of Virtue” intl every community, by exhibiting the evil] pruss’ia. the “Corhonari” of Naples,«• i..ra nWnvs resulted from .txtutmnc nvnr Ttalv: theeffects'which have always resulted from them, in whatever country or upon whatever pretext they may have been foundedextended its affiliations over Italy; the “ Associated Patriots” in hranee; the Philadelphians,” t£ Keformed European1 - . • * *n ilA1B.fordEr prcwsA« unj ------- --.iijnauuij»uilt;«iio, -LOne singularity about them is, that in J patriots” in Calabria and Abruizi” the their establishment, they have always pro- j “Guephs” in the Papal States; the “Broth-A * . • . donm TinWif* crnniL !

Others arc known .kind’ to the peace of society. But a thing t0 ex'tst ;n Germany, Italy and Spain, but as more peculiarly singular about the exist- ^.ct little is known concerning them. V e cnee of such an association in this country, might give an account of the rise, profes-is that the very circumstances, which have} i it ipinfcri1 J i 4is that tne very eircuui«wiilt;.ra, ..— rions, aim-*, acts and end, of these variousb^en claimed as justifying their establish-1 aaSOi.iatious, but they are all to be consul-l ot*d nnttrr»lv WJT1 t.tnff inf tlltt RllBC OfU^Tment/» otcr places, are entirely wantingSere.These circumstances, in countries whore these associations have flourished, are, thc scant of a political existence or the part of t/te people, where the right of public meeting u dented them, and where the public press is shackled by restrictions impolitic and««-j\uL JBere the contrast even in what has hoer.ioffered as au excuse to justify their organization is of the most strongly marked character.We, in this county, know no other politi-ered as ramifications of the same order merely assuming different names at different times and in different countries. Their origin and exemplar common was the society of the Illuminati of France. And although all have not been so wide-spread in miseries- to society in general, as it, yet this is to be attributed in most, if not all cases, to tbe want of power ; since the origin, aims, principles and modus operaodi are either entirely similar or identical in all.To tbis catalogue, who can add the KnowNothings of the United States of America,renattitui in\ fat I as I at! th* wi ed a iShwitharjtnCcITWe, m tbis ecmntj'j snuw no omur puuwi- otninot toe i. niLcu -------sal existence but that of the people Here without feeling of humiUation for the «tesra-Lhe utmost freedom of political meetings is datjon cf bis county’s reputation^ And ™ oil fwinnnt Knt. feel that it mustFitc.be uttuosi irecuom Uk pvxt“wn aation vji j r tderated.
