The Knigbts of Pythias bad en interesting and prufi.table reunion in their lodge room in. this city onTucdjiy night of last week. While this ia one of the youngest orders here, it is also- the strongest, and its membership comprises some o the moat energetic ot;our young business men. "The order had its origin on the evening of February 19, 1864. when its (bonder, Justus H. Rathbonf, gathered about him, in the city of Washington', a numIwr of gentiemen, and proposed a new order, whose objects should be the promotion of friendship, benevolence snd charity, and whose autotype of friendship and natural contiilocc should b) the historic friendsliip of Damon and .Pythian, i which Pythias pledged his life that Damon would not lorfeit hie honor, and ave liimself-as a pledge " that Ids frteud woiifd return for execution at the time appoiutcd by the king. The proposal met with the approl'ition of those preaeiit, and five ot those present stibscritted to an obligation of secrecy, and proceeded to name ihe, society, elect offit-ers and adopt a riliittl. Mr. liathlione, who is still living, and is at this time the grand lecturer of the order, has seen it grow Irom these rive. members to upwards of j Vyo.OUU, the reports ot the sutw.Hnat Imlgcs to the Supreme Ijoige of the world, on the - Stst of Deceuibcr, 18S7, showing a meni.feership ot iUfj.OOO, inleiiigeut esti mates at this time giving it a meuim rsltsp of ?a0vDUa.., The lodgi of the order now extend throughout every State and Territory in the" Uuion, and are found in Canada, Nova Scotia, Prince Edwaril's Illand, Manitoba, British Columbia, the Republic of Mexico ami the SnIvieh Islands."

The first lodge was established in Washington, D.-C, Twenty-five years ago last Tuesday nigh'. The Order bus had a wonderful growth, and to-day it numbers near two hundred lodges in tiiis State a!one. The Uniform Hank is a new feature, and it is of vast value to the Older.
