Trouble Among the Odd Fellows.—A misunderstanding recently occurred between the Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows and Polar Star Lodge, of New York, in consequence of the latter, as is alleged, failing to comply with an order issued by the Grand Lodge. The result was, that the delinquent members of the Order were expelled, and their regalia, together with both public and private property, seized by some person unknown, and removed beyond their reach. An officer with a search-warrant found the property, but did not take it away, as it is to be forthcoming at trial.
