Happy were in for the human race if lion found a limit Here. For then within the narrow limits of party clan and cast might dwell the True fraternal feeling and the social and moral Virtues under its enlivening influence might push their rapid growth. But still the wort goes on. These clans and casts Are composed of families each having interests which they regard As separate from if not incompatible with the interest of the Resl. Hence jealousies arise Foj Tenily against family so ruling up Itie activity of worldly interest and worldly preferment.

If it Means anything forts of life Are arrested Odd Fellowship from and her apparent Lenity to vice the it most be based upon the Assumption that All her Treasury or sympathetic heart pours in deadly hostility. Secrecy is wrong. This necessarily ascribes a Lido of unfailing supplies and prevents the such is conflicting men As compose the vast population of the Globe. From this corded selfishness arise a Large proportion of the evils that afflict the world and the crimes that disgrace humanity. Tyranny oppression fraud theft robbery extortion and All their Kindred attendant evils and miseries Are traceable directly to this v these Are Ettfer the results of arrange ment and design on the part of creator or of incidental causes. If they constitute a part of the grand design of creation then every Effort for their removal is rebellion against the throne and sinful in its character.

And that Law which is the Law of Universal Empire is thou shall live tie lord thy god with All thy heart and by fellow As whatever therefore. Contravenes this Law could be no part of the grand design of human existence and whatever is calculated to estrange the feelings and hearts of men is inimical to such design and compatible Wilh the divine will.
