Ho was not a Mason when he " entered the army of the Revolution, but he became one in the summer of 17 9. -;Tho festival of St John the Baptist wasc celebrated by the Maaonie brethren in the army that year upon the Hudson, West Point, and Washington Joined raa his ' custom, with the Military Lodge there on that occasion.' - Many other diatingatsbed oracers or tne AmeriCAn army were present aa Masons, and : the ceremonies v were highly impressive. Two days after this, Col. Putnam applied to the Lodge nnder whose' charter these proceedings "Were4 he!d,to be made"1 a Mason. It was" the -"American Union Lodge," which was instituted in the Con necticut line of the army at Roxbury, i in 1776. Colonel Putnam's application ' was favorably received, and, at the same meeting of the Lodge at which it .was presented, be was made a Mason. ' It was the 26th orjuly, 1779. On the 26th of t Ausust he was made a Fellow-Crrift, and . on the 6th of September a Master Maeon. . Theplace of meeting of the Lodge when he received his degrees, was at the 'Robinson House," on .A the east bank of the Hudson, about two miles below West Point The fortunes of this Lodge - during the Revolution, and , after its close, have a highly romantic interest, and are worthy of a place in the history of our country- Colonel Putnam a con nection with it was continued to the close: of the war, and we afterwards find him cherishing its privileges and maintaining its chartered rights on the banks of the Ohio, as the pioneer of Christianity and eivilization.' t'Vi- -. fe I AA the dan r era or the conntrr lessen edla av like degree were . lessened the' exertioos of the different States ta pay fijelj troopa, and"; eariy in 1785, Colonel Putnam oontenplated a retirement from the Army, in . consequence of ' a delinqueney by the State of Massachusetts in providing funds for this purpose.

Soon1 After - the ' firet settlement of lariettA, the old charter of the -American Union Lodge," which General Pat nam had joined in 1779; was need to convene w Lodge fa that place. s Jonathan f Hart, the last Master Of the Lodge doin tho Rvolntionand many or IP hnentberA.'had reiasoved since tho' Wat to the neW1 eettiemento' on th Ohio, and here they reopened their Lodge. "" Of this Lodged at "Marietta; General Putnam became the first Junior Warden. - General" Putnam still continued -: on officer or active member of the "Anteriean "Union5 Lodge, and when,' in 1808,' Lodge had been multiplied in that new State, end a convention net to form a Grand Lodge there,' they 5 unanimously made choice of him as their first Grand Masted He never- enjoyed 1 the honor, however,1 of presiding over that body, for he was the a three-score and ten years old, and the infirmities Of age were upon him." 'At the 'next annual communication, therefore, he resigned the office, in the following letter to the Grand Lodge: ToTthe I Grand Lodge of the Moat , Ancient . and , Honorable Society . of .

L; With him it was indeed a rest to which he had long looked forward, confidently believing, that when death divested him of his earthly robes, his Saviour, in whom he trusted, would stand by him to reinvest him with the robes of immortality. ' How Fond Mothers Commit Murder.; l..'d Front tba Saadaaky Bagiatar. ; Almost every dav,' on the streets of this and every other city, one may see proud mothers walking out in the brae-' ing winter air, accompanied by their gaily-dressed children. This is as it should be. - Women and children should have plenty of this' glorious January atmosphere, - and motnera should . be proud of well-behaved, : well-clad and heAllhy children , but there' a the rub. An exchange says: v' - vuJ s-.t "Yesterday we saw a little girl led by ita mother through the street. Her little collar and u muff and hat were ; of the warmest fur; and well ahe needed them. for it was bitter cold; but her little legs, bare and blue," between : her stockings and skirts, told a shivering tale." ? c " Who does not daily see the same thing? Little frail girls, with bead and shoul ders: bundled in unneeded fats, while from the feet to a point Above the knee the little darlings are almost literally naked. Of course, : mothers who thus dress their children are very .far from intending to kill them or render them permanent invalids, - bat euch . is . the certain result or this fashionable exposure. It is true that most children have their limbs well protected, because most mothers have an intelligent regard for the .health of their offspring, bat there are many who Are clad as we have mentioned, and to the mothers of these wc address our appeal. " "i'Z - : Aa little girls are now dressed, their skirts are no protection against the wind or cold below the knee, and what do they have aa a substitute? Linen drawers, reaching just below .the knee and there meeting the top of the stockincs which, usually have about naif the warmth nosaessed by the men's socks. Let us compare this armor with the clothing of boy a and men, who have at least five times the power of endurance possessed by the little girl." ! The father of this little six vear old girl would con sider himself coldly clad, and a " certain candidate for rheumatism, if his lower extremities were not protected Against the winter blasts, first, thick wool socks reaching more than half way to the knee; second wool drawers reaching from the islsntaisfnatr Urnl, bootlegs .jf doable leather Teaching nearly to the knee; and fourth, thick wool pantaloons covering all else And reaching to the " foot. " And yet this same father permits his delicate, (blue veined '.child " to go oat in winter f with legs incased in a single thickness of linen! jiiow would no lute to walk the winter streets clad in lin loons, end nothing else? - -' - Mothera, when your darlinjn are toes ing on their beds, burning ap with fever or choked with cold, do yoa over suspect thsx nere len. cold winds, atari aaainial I follies have Any thine to do witii tho I fevers And the old? Of course not !

1 have seen the official statementa of the American Consul At Crete, as to this terrible affair at Arkadl.3 His statements are based upon the "Affidavit of f. monk who was in the convent when it was blown ' npV but who was one "of the few who escaped. Except in what relates to the loss suffered by the Turks, this statement agrees substantially ; with, the oQcial report of Muatapha Pasha.. The monastery" of Arkadi was the largest and, most, important, establishment of the .kind in Crete. It; has occupied thia position for ages, having been erected in the days of the ' Emperior Heraolius, more than 1,200 years ago." , It was built With royal magnificence, and quite . as much., for . a fortress as. a . nipnastery, -Through All the wars .and revolutions And conquests of i twelve centuries., it has been respected alike by friend And foe ;Its library was rich in manuscripts. The building itself, constructed on the most massive style, stood in the center of A large court,' the walls ot which were strong enough for a fortress. Its situation added to its strength. This monastery, at the time of the attack, contained 195 men, including three 3reek volunteers and sixty-two monks. There were also 'in the building 873 "Women' and children. The place being within a few hours of Bethymnos, A Turkish fortress, it had been naturally "a place of refuge for the Cretans, and a thorn.' In the side of Muatapha Pasha. . So on the 20th ulU" he moved .down with 6,000 men to take Eossession of the piace anuupating ttle or no resistance. Hia sumuaons to surrender was replied to by ahowet of balls, and be attempted to storm, the place at once. All day long be sought in vain to batter . the walls with field pieces, and in the night he - brought up two heavy rifled, cannon. With these, on the morning of the 21st, he made A breach, which was soon entered by the Egyptian end Turkish ;- troops. - The Cretans ' retired to Uhe 1 monastery and held out there tintil afternoon, almost all the Turkish troops bv this time being within the court-yard. Finding " that they could hold out no ' longer,' having lost three-fourths of their fighting men; it was determined, by the common con sent of all women as well as men to blow up the .building. The Ttirks were allowed to rash in, while a priest named Manassis went into the vaults and pat a candle to the magazine, "which contained many barrels . of powder. ..The immense structure rose a little" and then fell a mass of ruins upon all. who were inside. And upon hundreds in. the court yard. The loss of the Turkj, according to the most carefnl estimates made on the spot, was about 1,500 killed, although the roports published . by the Porte in Constantinople acknowledge a loss of only 250. - Of the Greeks inside, fiftythree half-burned, worn en and children And forty three wounded men, wbe had taken refuge in one of the cellars. esesped death. These survivors are the rem nants t of - scattered families, children without parents, wives without husbands, and they are in the hands of the 2Torks. . .1 The Dead of the Year..
