We learn from Barruel and Robinson hat


those who were only Of the lowest orderi III these
societies Tor at least considerable proportion of
them) had no suspicion Of the monstrous wicked
ness, which terminated the mysteries of the con-
\ spirltors The apprentice was under the most

the most profound art and address, sounded his

4 The Apprentice Carbonar Is told that arcr-
! feet frankness." and contempt of danrerv
are indispensable requisites To his advancement.
This perfect frrlResS is essentially necessary to
the conspirators-for they ask the Apprentice
lis opinions upon the subjects of religion, morals
and potics-they tell him he may communi-
cate them with perfect confidence, and assure
him of profound secrecy--he considers himself
bound to speak without the least reserye-and
if after full examination, and the most rigid
scrutiny, they can make him subseryient 10 their





Il contempt Of danger is equally important TO
them aud requisite to advancement and unless
the Apprentice is, upon these principles, ,thatthe
end will sanctify the means, ready 10 psfpetrate
any act whatever TO advance the cause of tie
conspirators, he is not considered fit subject
for their entire confidence. But if be is ready
to declare unqualified hostility to all religious,
moral and social restraints and willing 10 use
poison and the dagger, if necessary, TO promote
their views, the next step TO him that lie
must give to the order the most unequvocaI
proofo OF his fidelity by the commission OF some
act, which would forfeit his life by the laws Of So
ciety-and state it particularly III writing, un-
der his own hand, TO be submitted to tie inspec-
ton of the secret governors of the order, who
are all unknown to hiln--all this being done he
is completely within their po,Fer-and dares not
retract--he is then to use the language OF the
conspirators = linked lcith them foreUer.'


Robinson or Barruel 1--WE do not remember
which, gives an account Of forged tradition as
singular aud astonishing as it is dariug and inn
pious. 1t pretends that the savior, when upon
earth, was the Grand Master Of their order
Whether they pretended to carry their antique
ty further back we do not now rernember.-Yes
they even pretended lat least in the times of
the French revolution) that Jesus Christ was q
teacher of Deisn and Anarchy and even this
was not in what they called their higher muSte-
ries-Deism there, by natural consequence was
abandoned--and Athesn-ungualiiied Atheism
substituted in its stead.


la the preceding ritual, too, they make men,
ton of the Saviour in such way as might be
expected in the first degree Of Carbonarism.
Its exactly in unison with illuminisn-and we
doubt not but that the farther developement Of
Carbonarism would exhibit the like similar
ity. We cannot but suppose there are some UNI
essential shades of difference, in different coun-
tries, to meet the localities OF each--Whiteboy-
Ism, in Ireland, exhibits the farce Of devotion to
Roman Catholicism, on account OF the preludices
Of the Irish people,


We cannot forbear to notice that the unitat-
ed are called by the Carbonari Pagans-altho'
we have not the least ntimation that these socie-
ties ever existed except in christian countries,
nor that any other than such Is have received
christian education for we have not heard Of
any Mahomedan Carbonari) have ever been ad-
mitted into their order. What then are we TO
learn from this fact connected with those above
mentioned Merely this--that they consider
and call Christians Pagans 6 their object IS to
convert them to-what ITO Atheism and Anar-
chy.


Possibly, ere long, we shall hear Of farther
discoveries concerning the Carbonari-the fore
SOiiiS art almost unlnpOrtant, Wnen compared
with what we confidently believe, yet remains
to be developed.


We may form some faint idea of the state Of
things in Italy, when infested BY numerous bands
of robbers, (supposed to be Of the Carbonari,l
and where they had the address to fill the pub
