The least said soonest mended , and on that account we do not intend to say much in regard to ourselves in renewing our labours on the FREEMASON ' S

CHRONICLE , which starts to-day under fresh management . ^ Up to within the last few years ' we had taken an active interest in the work of the paper , and oven of late have not been wholly disassociated from it ,

although our connection has for some time been of a very slight character . Now , however , we take up full command , and we hope that in doing so we shall resume the friendly associations of the past , and make the paper even more successful than it has hitherto been .

A quarter of a million of money for a Masonic Temple in London is what the Deputy Provincial Grand Master of Buckinghamshire invites the Provincials to contribute—more as a joke , perhaps ,

than anything else , the Kev . J . Studholme Brownrigg being a most jovial chairman , and generally succeeding in keeping an audience on good terms . But the proposal opens up matter for consideration ;

and the day is not far distant when the question will have to receive attention from the Craft . The present Temple is far too small for anything like a special assembly of Grand Lodge , overflow meetings having

continually to be arranged whenever anything out of the common requires attention , and no Brother can possibly defend such a proceeding , no matter what the cost of remedying it .

We cannot believe the brethren answerable for tho motion to call the attention of the Grand Lodgo of Scotland to the publication of certain " Notes for Freemasons " in a local paper were well advised in

bringing the matter so prominently forward , and we await with some anxiety a record of what was done in answer to their proposition , which was to the effect that , " as such publications are contrevrv to the

Constitution and Laws of the Order , and detrimental to the best interests of the Craft , to move Grand Lodge thereanent . " It seems rather late in the day to attempt to curtail the liberties of the press , even in Masonic matters , although we are quite willing to

admit that due decorum should be observed by those who chronicle the doings of the Craft in public prints . We shall refer to the matter at greater length when we have further details before us , but from a cursory

glance at the " notes " complained of we imagine it is the facetiousness of the writer which is not appreciated . He is a little too " free and easy " in his remarks , but not sufficiently so to call down on his head the public interference of a Grand Lodge .

One of the events at the last meeting of the Metropolitan Lodge of Instruction , at the Moorgate , Finsbury Pavement , was the presentation by Bro . II . Stiles of a photo of our old friend Bro . A . Scurrah in

his rvovincial regalia , to some forty ol those who were present . Tlio likeness is iirst rate , and is one of the first produced under a new process which Bro . Stiles

is carrying out with great satisfaction at his studio , 175 King Street , Hammersmith . We hope to have an early opportunity of spending an evening with our
