A Veteran Again In Harness.

A VETERAN AGAIN IN HARNESS .

[ COMMUNICATED . ] IT has been truly siiid that the system of Freemasonry is microscomic in character , and symbolically dopiofs the advent and departure of all that is mortal .

One of the most prominent traits in our Order is its inherent and intuitive disposition to advance with the march of Time . To the fact thafc " Masr > nry is a progressive science" the Society not only largel y owes its present

brilliant and exalted position , but in it great measure the continuation from age to age of its very existence . In remote days , when the gloom of ignorance and superstition enshrouded tho earth , Masonry , " like a glimmerinf

light in the east , " heralded the dawn of Science , Morality , and Truth . Its teachings , pure and sublime , inculcated by the enlightened few , gradually fell upon the hearts of the

many , and eventually roused into active lifo the desire to fulfil the great and noble purpose of our Order—the Universal Brotherhood of Man , and the Universal Fatherhood of God .

It is not our intention to even briefly glance at the history of Speculative Masonry ; suffice it to repeat thafc the progressive spirit of the science has been displayed throughout its whole career . The primitive rio-ht of

. satiation , as practised by our ancient brethren , was doubtless simple in character , but became amplified in successive generations ; and , as Time rolled on , and the instinctive yearning increased for higher expression of Masonic Truth ,

the impressive beauties of the third degree were developed . To define the exact moment when ni ght ends and twi li ght begins is an impracticable task ; neither can we fix

upon the precise date in our history when the darkness ot death was first illumined b y the glorous light of the liolv Royal Arch .

It has been contended thafc Arch Masonry is a creation ol recenfc date ; bufc there is no more justice in this view than to hold that man in his present hi gh state of civilisation is but of yesterday . There may be , in some respects , an

immeasurable gulf between him and his pre-historic ancestor ; but as the man of those days was the forefather of the man of to-day , and as much the cradle—ruder , may bo - of an immortal soul , so the Masonry of ancient times ,

enshrining the germ of Universal Brotherhood , was tho forerunner aud progenitor of this our latest and hi ghest type and noblest exemplification of vital and immortal truth . Let us , whilst admiring the splendours of tlio edifice , forget not tho duo to tho Jabourera who have passed , or aro
