AT the unveiling of Field-Marshal Keith ' s statue at Peterhead , on the 16 th inst ., several Masonic lodges took part in the interesting ceremony , and afterwards assisted at laying the foundation stone of the new Court House in that town . Past Master A . Boyd , of the Keith Lodge , No . 56 , officiated as

Grand Master , and the proceedings were favored with the presence of the Earl of Kin tore , Lord Lieut , of the county and other local celebrities . The cast of Marshal Keith ' s statue was presented to his native town by the King of Prussia , and this graceful act or . the part of His Majesty , and the courtesy

of Count Bismarck were duly acknowledged at the banquet which followed the public celebration . SECRETS There are secrets in and about its every department . Veins , arteries , ligaments and flesh and bone have their secrets . The blood which animates the human frame flows on in silence . And

how quiet are the communings of the heart . There are feelings , aud thoughts , and sympathies , which never emerge from their solitary retreats . And who has ever heard those mighty spirits which walk so majestically in history , or those associated events and princip les which have come down from the past ?

Time , with a quiet and noiseless hand , is continually drawing out the invisible wires which connect century with century , those mystic lines which enable us to commune with the remotest ages . Yes , there is mystery everywhere—mystery in the present , mystery in the past , and mystery in the future .

IMPOSTORS . —Look out for those fiends who prowl about the holy places and prey upon the funds sacred to the destitute , the widow , the orphan . Examine them well , and then examine their claims . Many of these cowardly thieves are not entitled to relief , even from their oivn showing . It is not incumbent upon Masons lo support a man in idleness when he ought to

be at work . Nay , more , those who thus disburse a fund that belongs to the deserving alone show themselves to be careless , if not faithless , stewards . These rascals are abundant in some portions of the country , and from the negligence of Masons in many sections their increase is greatly encouraged . Many of them make ten times what they could by honest labour , and then , perhaps , spend it in the lowest debauchery .

PRICE'S BENZODYNE , A Newly-discovered princip le residing in Gum Benjamin ( Styras Benzoin ) , the chief chemical product of which has hitherto been Benzoic Acid , well known and highly valued by medical practitioners . The great difficulty which tho discoverer encountered in bringing out this important remedy was the form in which to present it to the faculty and the public , the new chemical being amorphous and incapable of crystidization .

In Cholera , as in Coinsumption its effects are astounding , while Chronic Cough yields to its curative influences in a few hours . PRICE'S BENZODYNE is acknowledged by the highest Medical authority to be the most wonderful medicine yet introduced to the public ; it may be taken at any time by both young and old with the most beneficial effects in all cases , leaving no bad effects like Laudanum , Chlorodyne , or any other sedative preparation , and can be given when no other could be tolerated . In Consumption and Cancer its peculiarly soothing properties render it a boon to the sufferer in allaying the cough , mitigating night perspirations , and in relieving pain , & c . In every stage of those dire diseases it gives an amount of case not attainable by any other remedy . In all eases of Chest Affections , as Asthma , Bronchitis , Winter Cough , Palpitation , & c , " Price ' s Benzodyne , " is a very valuable medicine , producing a composed and tranquil state of the system , and quickly relieving ihe cough , assisting expectoration , and in a few days removing the most distressing symptoms . In Hysteria , Epilepsy , Gout , Rheumatism , Neuralgia , and all Nerve Pains it is justly valued , as it is given with immediate benefit , relieving pain and suffering however violent tho attack .
