lion was wicked and causeless, and that some discrimination should be made between those: who supported "the Governjment and those who fought against it,- and recommending that all who voluntarily iy i.oore arms in aid of the rebellion should be excluded from the elective' franchise ; but if all are restored to the right of suffrage, that negroes should be allowed the right to af vote, The resolutions also express j;onflVoT Vdenco in the majority of the present Conu s . gress.

I. 0. Or F. The Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows in session this week at Indianapolis; is" said to1 be i&o$ largely

attended than any session -auring. ine last seven years. The reports pf the Grand ' officers were presented on Wednesday. ! !'., The report of Thomas B. McCabtY,; Grand Master, shows the Order in the State to le in a' condition of' unprecedented prosperity. j In regard to lotteries and gift enterprises,Gr?nd Master McCartt says ; ' Numerous inquiries have been made of me as to the legality of Lodges, for; their own benefit, or individual members,, for the benefit of their Lodges, resorting to Lotteries or Gift enterprises. ". Tlie very emphatic disapproval of all such schemes by this Grand Lodge, at the November, ses sion, 1860, should have prevented any recourse to a measure the legality and morality of which have been condemned by this Grated Body. ThT condemnation of all such schemes Is in these words, which ad-, mitof no controversy as to their meanings and purport: . , , .r-- I " 11 That such schemes aire immoral, con.. trary to the laws of the State, and of this Order, and that the course pursued by the Grand Master, in suppressing the sale of tickets in this jurisdiction, and warning Lodges against encouraging such enter-; prises, as expressed, in his report, be heart ily approved )yy thi Grand Lodge." I have thought it proper thus to repeat our previ ous action: bn this subject, that Lodges and members may be warned against the con sequences of a violation of this decisive ac tion. I would recommend that no notice whatever be taken of the. receipt of any packages of ticket by any officers of any Lodge, as the most suitable course to be pursued in this matter. j -';n GRAND SECRETARY.

The inhabitants of that city were only turned out. : They -were spared those last offenses of degradation and pollution which were inseparable from the occupancy of Southern cities by our armies r 'arid which,; while they, were occurring, we regarded with indulgence, if not with encouragement.
