it had been successful . The chair of their Lodge was filled by a Master who did all he could to promote the welfare of Freemasonry in general and his Lodge in particular . Of this , from time to time , they bad had abundant proof . The idea of a Lodge outing , to which ladies shonld be invited , hid originated with their President , and therefore he ( the speaker ) wonld propose his health . Tho President

in an exceedingly modest speech acknowledged the compliment . It had been his constant endeavonr Co promote the interests of the Lodge , and he cared not what amount of time or trouble devolved upon him providing hia efforts were successful . He had for a con . siderable time endeavoured to accomplish what had been achieved that day . He conld not see why the ladies shonld not on occasions

like the present bo with them . They were nnder great obligations to their lady friends in various ways , and once at least daring the year he thought they should participate in their enjoyment . There was also " another matter whioh he would recommend for their consideration , namely , the desirability of having a ball dnring the ensuing winter . There was only the will wanting , and he hoped that that

fact wonld not be overlooked . He did not intend to occupy their attention by making a long speech , inasmuch as the ladies in particular would mnch rather be enjoying a view of the beantiful country around them and in breathing the pure , fresh air rather than listening to prosaio speech . He folly appreciated the kind motives whioh prompted the Vice-president to eulogise him , and in all sincerity he

thanked him . The President then proposed the toast of the Offiuers of tbe Lodge , to whioh Bro . Nixon responded . For the Visitors Bro . Eose replied , and then Bro . Hinks jun . acknowledged tbe compliment paid the ladies . Several other toasts followed , and then an adjournment was tnude to the open air . Altogether a most delightful day was spent . The party returned home at a reasonable hoar , and thus the first outing of this Lodge was a matter of the past .

PRIORY LODGE , No . 1996 . A REGTTLAK meeting of this Lodge was held at the Royal Oak Assembly Rooms , High-street , Acton , W ., on Monday , 7 th July . The WM ., Bro . C . B Botley , wa * snpported by Bros . W . Roebuck I . P . M ., G . Wright 8 . W ., F . Botley J . W ., the rest of the Oflicers , and a good attendance of the brethren , with Visitors . After tbe usual preliminaries , Bro . Benjamin Hardy was duly pissed to the degree of a Fellow Craft , and the W . M . gave the lecture on tha Tracing Board

of the degree . The sum of JB 3 3 s was voted from the Benevolent Fund of the Lodsre towards the temporary relief of a distressed brother in Acton . The W . M . announced that at the recent Festival of the Masonic Institntion for Boys , at whioh he served the office of Steward for tbe Lodge , tbe amount of his list was £ 5 Is 9 B , the total amonnt collected being £ 14 , 060 . All Masonio business being ended , the

Lodge was closed according to antient custom , and adjourned until the first Monday in November next . The brethren then drove to the Mitre Hotel , Hampton Court , where an excellent dinner was served by Host Sadler . The Loyal and Masonic toasts were duly given , interspersed with songs by Bros . F . Gillett , E . Monson juu .,

F , Botley , and tbe W . M . Bro . E . H . Sugg presided at the piano . During the evening the W . M . and brethren were honoured by the visit of the Deputy Graud Master for Middlesex , Bro .

ME . CHABLES DU-VA . 1 had the honour of appearing at Marlborough Honse on Monday last , the occasion being a garden party given in celebration of the birthday of the Princess Victoria of Wales .

At Scarborough , on Tuesday , Charles Arthur Courbet , of the ripe age of 64 , and described as an artist and well educated , was sen . tenced at , tbe borough sessions , to nine months' imprisonment for having obtained various sums of money from different persons by falsely representing that he was a Freemason , a professor of languages at Durham University , and in distressed circumstances . The prisoner had been twice previously convicted of felony , and accordingly pleaded guilty , probably finding the evidence too strong for him . —Evening Fetes .
