fully aware , but in the present case , after careful pernsal , we have failed to find anything that has not already been before the Craft . We do not wish to be misunderstood ; we are nob complaining , far from it ; what more can tbe compiler do than to give us a complete list of all ' the regular Lodges and Royal Arch Chapters , with their places
and times of meeting , as recorded in the books of the United Grand Lodge and Grand Chapter , and a variety of details concerning Freemasonry to date ? As in other years the Calendar has been com . piled by the late Bro . Colonel Shadwell H . Gierke , and is pnblished
for the benefit of the Charity Fnnd , nnder the authority of the United Grand Lodge of England .. Bro . Kenning , the publisher and printer , has done his work well , and we feel sure the Craft at large will find the Calendar for 1892 very serviceable .
" The Cosmopolitan Masonio Calendar and Pocket . Book for 1892 . London : George Kenning and Co ., 16 and 16 A Great Queen Street . As with the Grand Lodge Calendar , so in the case of our old friend
the " Cosmo . " Very little new matter has been inserted , so we must be content with a comprehensive Masonio book of reference . This the " Cosmo " unquestionably is ; it contains particulars of the Grand Masonio bodies of Scotland , Ireland , and all colonial and foreign jurisdictions . All the varied information has been carefully collated ,
and is set forth in a concise and attractive form , and it will be found a niefnl adjunct to the Grand Lodge Calendar , for whereas the latter only gives such information as concerns the English Grand Lodge , the Cosmopolitan gives particulars of every grade connected with the different degrees of Freemasonry . We ean cordially recommend the work .
" The Berkshire Masonio Register and Calendar for 1892 . " Printed and pnblished by Bro . G . J . Cosbnrn , Cazton Printing Works , Newbury . The compiler of this book ( Bro . J . T . Morland , Deputy Provincial Grand Master ) has given us a careful history of tbe Craft in
Berkshire . The sketch of Freemasonry in the Province , from 1725 to 1891 , is both interesting and accurate , and will repay any one for the time spent in reading it , while the list of Officers for both Grand Lodge , Grand Chapter , the Provincial Grand Lodge , and the members of the different Lodges in the Province are carefully
put together . Moreover , a large amount of information is supplied concerning the doings of the members of the Province in connection with the different Masonic Institutions , and as far as we can
see the Calendar for each month is comprehensive and complete . We congratulate the Deputy Prov , Grand Master , Bro . J . Thornhill Morland , M . A ., on the way in whioh he has compiled the book , and Bro . G . J . Cosbnrn on the way he has produced the little brochure .
MEXICAN CONVENTS BROKEN UP . —An American press correspondent at the city of Mexico states on Monday , 22 nd December , there was much excitement in the city of Puebla on account of the break , ing up of three small convents by a body of soldiers . Tbe convents were those of San Augustine , El Carmon , and Santo Domingo . A law enacted during the presidency of Juarez forbids the assembling of persons in religious orders to the nnmber of more than three nnder
one roof ; but in the last three or four yeara there have been clandestine attempts by the clerical party to establish convent - ? , and , as there is much devotion to the Church at Puebla , ifc was not difficult to secure houses for the three communities mentioned . The atten . tion of the authorities having been called , the district judge issued a formal order for the expulsion of the monks . This was
acoomphhed by a corp of rurales . During the execution of the order a crowd assembled and began throwing stones at the cavalry me * 7 ° ' after 8 nffer - ng the attack patiently for a few minntes , opened fire and killed one of the crowd . The arrested monks , who
were holding a service when the troops arrived , were escorted inrough the streets in their priestly vestments . The clerical organ , bi lempo , publishes a fiery article , ascribing the arrests to Masonic wtngues , and the public excitement is intense . It is believed that ^ eoret convents exist in other cities , and that they also will be broken
