Israel Lodge , No . 206 . —A most enjoyable evening was spent by the members of this Lodge , on Tuesday , the 22 nd nit ., on which occasion some excellent work was done by Bro . H . J . Phillips the W . M . The whole of the three degrees having to be worked , gave a favourable opportunity for judging of the power of Bro .

was supported by Bros . Da Suva S . W ., A . Abrahams J . W ., A . M , Cohen Treas ., 0 . F . Hogard Sec , and a large number of members . The business of the evening comprised tho passing of Bro . Philcox , the initiation of Messrs . Morris Goldberg , Solomon Zucher , Jacob Boeno de Mesquita and Gustave Saling , and the raising of Bro . Oester . man , the whole of these ceremonies , as we have said , were carried

our in a most perfect manner . After the closing of the Lodge , the brethren partook of supper , under the presidency of the W . M ., and then spent an hour in social enjoyment . Bro . L . Norden , the I . P . M ., m proposing the health of the Master , paid him a just compliment for the way in which he had presided that night . In reply the W . M . said he could add little to what he had said on previous occasions . He shonld always strive to be of the greatest service to the Lodge of

Israel . He then proposed the health of the Initiates , giving the newl y admitted brethren a most hearty welcome , and speaking in a way that must have made them feel quite at home . Bro . Mesquita was the first to respond . He could only say that he felt proud , very proud , at being received as a member of the most ancient and noble Order cf Freemasonry . Bro . Zncher followed , adding a few appro- \ priate words of thanks . Bro . Goldberg was extremely glad that he had joined the ranks of Freemasonry , and trnsted he miarht do cvprv .

tmng that was required of a true brother . Bro .

He shonld always endeavour to do his best for Freemasonry . Bro . A . M . Cohen ™ Ponded to the toast of the Benevolent Fund of the Lodge , the W . M . in proposing it remarking that there could not possibly be a

more suitable brother to speak of it than Bro . Cohen , its founder and -y * esident . He spoke of the great amount of good that had been done fti !" * '' 1 D t , 3 e past " Its fnnc , s were c , evotecl entirely to the wants ° » the members of the Lodge , their widows and orphans . It must be ? ° nrce of great pride for the brethren to know that through its "JBtrumentality they had been enabled to render some most

accept-¦ "Me assistance in the past , ancl still had a largo amount in hand to meet the claims of the future . It was not the custom of the com . ictee of the fund to award trifling sums , but whenever they found eserving case to give an amount which wonld really be of service . ne other feature which he thought commended itself to the brethren en \ 1 * a 0 fc t ^ at' ' ; evel' was done by the committee was known UJ y to the committee ; they did uot give and then make known who

was tho recipient of their bounty , and thereby counteract tho good they had done . Ho hoped the fund would continue to prosper , and that it wonld be administered in the future as it had been in tho past , and that even in his timo its balance would reach a four figure total ; they had now upwards of £ B 00 in hand , and he trusted that before the year had expired that amount would be increased to £ 700 .

toast of the Visitors was next given , to which Bro . Jacobs replied . The Past Masters followed , and to this Bro . Norden replied ; after which the Officers was given and acknowledged .

From our own Correspondent with the Russian Army . Okoum , July 25 th , 1 S 77 . Tlio want of sanitary arrangements in the Russian Camp was dreadful , and had we remained thero a few weeks longer , dysentery and typhoid fever would have played more havoc in our ranks than the bombs of the Turks . I myself acquired an unenviable reputation as a doctor , owing to my being provided with a small bottle of CHLOBODYNE , with which I effected miraculous euros .
