a letter from Bro . W . W . B . Beach , Prov . G . M . Hants and the Isle of Wight , accepting the office of Trustee of tho Institution , to which ho was circled at the April Court , and tbanking the brethren for tho honour conferred . The brethren discussed a resolution of the General
Committee of Saturday , 7 th June 1890 , referring to this Court an appeal from the Province of Cumbei'land and Westmoreland for the admission to the Institution of James Carruthers , unsuccessful on his last application , with 1768 votes , in April last . A letter was read from Bro . George
J . Mackay , the Secretary of tho Province , appealing to the brethren on behalf of Carruthers . Bro . J . S . Cumberland said it was a disagreeable duty to oppose anything of this kind . Bro . Mackay was very unfortunate in not getting his candidate elected , but no exception to the
established rule could be made . If that Committee opened the door in one case they would have to do so again and awain . They must not strain the laws of the Institution . Brother A . C . Spaull said they would all be glad to take a boy into tho Institution if they possibly could
do so . Bro . J . E . Le Feuvre did not see what else they could do but refuse this boy . The Institution had its laws , and tho Court and Committee were bound to abide by them . His own Province was in tho same position , with regard to a widow . They thought 100 votes more were
polled than had been polled , and their candidate was the highest unsuccessful . She was only out by seven votes . The appeal was rejected . Bro . A . C . Spaull moved , and Bro . Hogard seconded , the approval of a list of 53 candidates , on the recommendation of the General Committee ,
from which 19 boys shall be elected at tho Quarterly General General Court to be held on Friday , the 31 st October next . This was carried . Bro . John Glass ' s motion " That the by-laws of the Institution as altered and amended by the Provisional Management Committee be
substituted for tho laws at present in force . Such alterations and amendments in no way to bo contrary to the spirit of the fundamental principles upon which the
Institution is founded . A copy of the proposed by-laws is appended hereto , and can be seen at the office of the Institution at any time during the usual office hours , " was declared to have been withdrawn . Bro . Cumberland
asked whether it would not be better first to consult the Committee of the Girls' School , and to delegate a certain number of their body to meet such Committee . He only threw it out as a hint , because hitherto the rules of the two Institutions had been identically the same . Bro .
Binckes said there wore certain points of difference in the rules of the respective Institutions . Brother Hogard observed that there could be no harm in sending to the Committee of the Girls' School a copy of the new laws of
the Boys' School . Brother Stanley J . Attenborough observed that the object was to have the draft laws as altered placed in the hands of the General Committee for deliberation on the 9 th of August . Brother J . S . Cumberland remarked that he understood it was
not intended to send the new rules out to the Provincial Secretaries . Bro . Attenborough said that on the 9 th of August the by-laws would be presented to the General Committee , and the Secretaries of the Provinces conld attend that meeting . The new laws were not to bo passed
at the meeting on the 9 th August ; they were only to be presented to the General Committee , and the General Committee were to have from that day to tho Quarterly uourfc in October to consider them ; that would give them two months . Bro . Hogard said that for the meeting in
October a notice could be given under Law 34 . Bro . J . S . Cumberland thereupon moved that a copy of these by-laws be sent to each Provincial Grand Secretary . Bro . Spaull said it would be quite soon enough to make this motion at the meeting of the 9 th of August . The by-laws were not
read y yet . He did not think it would be courteous to send them out to the Provinces before they came before the Committee . The whole constituency was from 8000 to y 000 . A vote of thanks to the Chairman closed the proceedings .

Bro . Cumberland , the Chairman said nearly all the memorial windows in the new hall of the Institution had been subscribed for . In answer to further inquiries , the Chairman said tho building was almost , complete ; the scaffolding was down . Between now and Christmas all the rooms would
be finished , and steps would be taken to furnish them , so that the new children would be amply provided for . Brother Cumberland moved , and Brother J . G . Stevens seconded , " That the 19 eligible candidates remaining from tho last Election , together with the 13 whose
petitions have been since approved , be placed upon tho list for tho November Election , and that 14 vacancies , caused by girls leaving , be declared . " This
was carried . Bro . Cumberland , referring to the revised rules of the Boys' School , asked whether it had not been the custom to have the laws of the Boys' School similar to those of tho Girls' School . Tho Chairman said the rules
of the two Institutions were alike at one time . Bro . Cumberland said he referred to the subject because he raised the question the day before at the Boys' Quarterly Court . He thought it would be rather a pity that there should be any difference . The Chairman said he took rather a different view to some brethren on this matter . The two
Institutions were distinct , and governed by two separate bodies . He was not sure it was a good thing that the rules of tho two Institutions should be similar . He had been
revising tho rules of the Boys' Institution , and had spent a good many hours with Lord . Euston upon them . They thought it better to let these rules pass , and then have a committee to consider the revision of their own rules . As
a foundation , they might be accepted , but where an alteration was a good one it should be adopted . There was a great deal to be said on both sides . A vote of thanks to the Chairman closed the proceedings .
The July meeting of the Board of Benevolence was held at Freemasons' Hall , London , on the 23 rd ult ., under the presidency of Bro . Robert Grey P . G . D . There were 28
