when they came to look back through the countless ages through which Masonry had existed , aud see that , age after age , it went on increasing in the number of those who belonged to it , this should be a warning to all outside their Craft , as well as to those within it , that ifc must exist upon principles which it
attempts to inculcate—principles which go to make citizens throughout the world , and particularly in the Empire in which they lived and thrived . Bro . Aird , who also was enthusiastically received , remarked that he most cordially agreed wifch the sentiments which had been expressed by Bro . Seager-Hunt . It was a great pleasure
to him to be present at the Lodge meetings of Freemasons , which did so much good tt those around them , aud which no doubt , by the charitable efforts which were made by the members , set au example which was followed by many other institutions . In charitable works , however , Masonry cad ever maintained the lead . It was afc such
gatherings , thafc they met many friends who otherwise , perhaps , they would not have tho opportunity of meeting . Among thoso whom it had been a pleasure to him to meet on that occasion wero Brothers Kialmark , Welford , Stephens , Walker , and , nob least , their good friend Brother Hartley , who hacl paid him the very great
compliment of asking him to come and dine with tho Lodge . The pleasure which he hacl anticipated had been fnlly borne out , and ho thanked the Worshipfnl Master aud the brethren for tbe hearty
welcome they had accorded him and the other visitors . The health of tho W . M . elect was next proposed , and other toasts followed . A most enjoyable evening , which was enlivened with songs and recitations , was passed .

THE LATE SHIPWRECKS OFF CAPE HORN . EXTRACT of letter from David James ( late Master ) , of the barque " Colorado , " of Glasgow . — " Having lost our ship on Staten Island , on the 5 th of July last , and having saved neither effects nor provisions , we were then compelled to travel over the island for ten clays , subsisting on nothing but shell-fish and seaweed . On
the 19 th July we came across another shipwrecked party , of seventeen , the surviving part of the crew of the British ship " Dunskeig , " of Glasgow , fourteen having perished through exposure . Now , the ship waa losb on the 23 rd of June , and a lot of the cargo , consisting of Epps ' s cocoa , was washed ashore onfc of tho wreck . There was
nothing saved except the cocoa , and we , numbering twenty-nve men , were kept alive on it up to the 20 th Augusb , when we were rescued by the steamer " Mercurio , " of Buenos Ayres , and landed there on the 13 th of September . " Too much praise cannot be given to this cocoa for the preserved
state that it was in , after being in the bottom of the sea , in fche wreck of the " Dunskeig , " for a fortnight , and then washed ashore , and lying on the beach and rocks of Staten Island for about six weeks , subject to the exposure of the severest weather on the face of the lobe .
"The island is situated in a region of perpetual ice , snow , and storms ; and after all this test , it was as fresh and dry as if in the works .
" As we had a good stock of it there , we used it in a liquid state for drink , and also made ifc in a thick state , like porridge , and we also baked it on the fire , which made splendid bread , and kept ns alive and warm on this barren island . "
