THE EXPOSURE OF FREEMASONRY.

The Tablet has divulged to the world in its last issue, the real Masonic secret as follows :—": — " In Mgr de Sugur's work on Freemasonry, chap 28, as practiced on the Continent of Europe, the following will be found : ' The moment is the initiation ot the Mistress Mason in the secret grade of Perfect Mistress. Before all else, they require from them the terrible oath which binds them to the sect 01 male and female for their lives. " I swear," . she says, " I promise to keep faithfully in my heart the secret of male and female Masonry. I oblige myself to this under pain of being cut to pieces by the sword of the Exterminating Angel. The G— M — immediately proclaims her Perfect Mistress, and addresses these words to her : — My dear, now that you have been initiated into the symbolic arcanum of Masonry ; now that the light of truth has shone upon your eyes, superstition that is to say, the faith in and the fear of God, which you perhaps had still preserved in the corner of your brains, and dissipated, an arduous but sublime task is henceforth imposed upon you. This is it : listen. The first of your obligations will be to embitter the peojile against priests and kin £3. In the cafe, theatre, soirees, ever labour for this sacred and holy intention. There now remains but one secret for me to reveal to you, and we shall speak of it in a low voice. And he announces that the final completion of the secret mission of Masonry " is the annihilation of all religious and monarchial authority."
