A Youthful, But Ambitious Authority On The Conduct Of Freemasonry.

A YOUTHFUL , BUT AMBITIOUS AUTHORITY ON THE CONDUCT OF FREEMASONRY .

To the Editor of the FREEMASON ' S CHRONICLE . DEAR SIR AND BROTHER , —I havo read with some interest the remarks of yonr correspondents on this subject , and I quite agree with OLD SCHOOL in the explanation he suggests , namely , that in offering opinions on what they do not understand , young Masons do but observe the practice of the average young men of the day . I was

intensely amused on ono occasion when , through no fault of my own , I was made the ear-witness of the following absurdity enunciated at an ordinary Lodge meeting at which I happened to be present as a visitor . A brother who , though not young in point of age , had evidently not arrived at years of Masonic discretion , was giving his reasons for not continuing his subscription to one or other of the two recognised organs of the Craft in England , and he did so in the

following term 3 : " In the first place , " said he , " I take no interest in Masonic journalism ; in the second , I have never opened a single copy of the Masonic paper you refer to ; and , in the third , I do not like the character of its articles . " This , thought I to myself , is passing judgment with a vengeance . A brother proclaims that he dislikes the tone of the articles in a certain Masonic journal , when , according to his own showing , ho has never taken the trouble to read them . Yours faithfully and fraternally , ANOTHER VETERAN M . M .

THE LATE DR . MARGOLIOUTH .

THE news of the sadden death of Dr . Margoliouth , M . A ., LL . D ., Ph . D ., vicar of Little Linford , which took place in London at five o ' clock on Friday evening , 25 th February , where he had gone on the Monday previous to prosecute his literary labours , and his missionary work among the higher classes of the Jews , was received by the inhabitants of tho town of Little Linford and neighbourhood with mingled feelings of sorrow and regret , for although the Rev . Dr .

had been but a few years a resident at Little Linford , his pleasant and affable manner had won him many friends . Not only , however , will his loss be felt here , bnt he will be missed universally , for the country must regret to lose a man of such large talents . On Monday , 21 st February , he left Little Linford for London , and on arrival

there took up his residence at Nelson s Hotel , Great Portland-street . On tho following evening , after an arduous day ' s study , he was taken ill . At first his illness was not thought to be of a serious nature , bnt the symptoms gradually increased iu intensity , and on Friday evening a clever , noble , and generous man sank to his rest , at the ago of 60 . Dr . Margoliouth was born in 1820 , of Jewish parents , embraced Christianity in 1838 , studied at Trinity College , Dublin , and was ad-

11 tho vicarage of Little Liuford , where , as every where , ho gained tho lore and esteem of all who knew him . He Japeut all the energies of his lilb in promoting the spiritual welfare of his own people . Ho had especial access to the highly educated Jewish families , and the bless , ingof God rested on his work .

incalculable helpfulness in bringing the great truths of Christianity before the unconverted of his own race , which we hope one day will be revived .

His memory will long live in the hearts of many , and his works will be a sonrce of imformation and gnide in religions truth to earnest students of tho Holy Scriptures . —Croydon ' s Weekly Standard .

Exhibition Of Domestic Labour-Saving Machinery.

EXHIBITION OF DOMESTIC LABOUR-SAVING MACHINERY .

ON Monday , at the Agricultural Hall , Islington , was opened what must certainly be described as a novelty in the way of exhibitions , and , as it will remain open till this day week , we thiuk our readers will be interested if they visit the Hall . They will there see collected together every variety of implement in every-day domestic use . There will be found the latest and most approved inventions in

sewing machines , washing machines , knife-cleaners , heating and cooking stoves , and in every imaginable kind of domestic appliance . There are likewise included many displays of articles in constaut use among all classes of householders , such , for instance , as the mats , baskets , & c , which are the handiwork of blind operatives—this particular collection being placed in the centre of the bnilding . There

are , too , others which find favonr with residents in suburban districts , such as lawn-mowers and tents , together with bicycles for the athlete , and carriages , and , above all , billiard tables for tho wealthy . One stall , in particular , attracted our attention , that of Bro . Edwards , of the Kingsland-foad , who , by the way , is on the evo of moving into larger and more commodious premises in the same

neighbourhood , so rapid has been the increase in his business during the last few years . Bro . Edwards exhibits three well-made billiard tables , besides bagatelle and other tables and apparatus of a cognate character . All these , with the balls , cues , & c , & c , are a credit to the establishment by which they are manufactured . Our attention was especially attracted by an oak cabinet , so constructed

as to support a Roller Marking Board for Billiards , and n Pool Marking Board for twelve playors , having slate in centre , and a pool money till with glass front j while at the same time in the drawers , & c , & c , is provided ample accommodation for wines , cigars , & c , & c . This cabinet combines most admirably the usefnl with the ornamental ,

and no better specimen of Bro . Edwards' manufacture could , we think , have been shown . We were also much pleased with the group of pianos sent by Mr . Justin Browne , of 237 and 239 Eustnn Road . They were handsome in appearance , and the tone left nothing to be desired . Moreover , they have the further advantage of being comparatively modest in price .

MASONIC GRIPS . —A brother who does a good deal of travelling , and likes to " get acquainted as he goes , " says there are six kinds of Masonic Grips , and he has feit them all . He classifies them in this way : 1 . The pendulum shake , where the parties move their locked hands right and left , illustrating the jewel of the Senior Warden . 2 . The pump-handle shake , where tho motion assimilates to tho emblem

of the Junior Warden . Now if a Mason who is accustomed to number one grapples with the Mason who has been used to number 2 , there will be trouble , sure . 3 . The tourniquet shake , where you squeeze the hand until a pleasant sound of cracking follows , that denotes a weakness in the ossification of your opponent . 4 . The melancholy shake , which is a pensive , tranquil motion , suggesting liver

complaint and dyspepsia . 5 . The effeminate shake , which only reaches to the fingers , sometimes only to the forefinger , and makes you think of your maiden aunt . There are also the anvil shake , the grip royal , the malicious shake , & c , but the best of all is , 6 . Tbe cordial shake , which is a hearty agitation of hands , accompanied by kindly greetings , and a certain thrill , affecting most pleasantly all the nerves , even the heart . —Masonic Review .
