[ 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

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
