At tho Liverpool Ooroner ' a Court , ou fche 14 th inst ., Mr . E . Gibson Deputy Coroner held an inquest on the body of Bro . Robert Taylor Britteu , aged fifty-three , estate agent ,

living at 13 Chapel Road , Anfield . Deceased was a prominent Freemason in Liverpool , and had been a Past Master of the Everton Lodge , No . 823 , of tbe Kirkdale Lodge ,

No . 175 b , and a Fast . Principal ot the Everton Chapter , and somo time ago received the Provincial honour of P . P . G . S . of W . Dr . Hendry stated thifc death resulted from apoplectic seizure , and death had been accelerated by the awkward position in which deceased had fallen between hia counter and the wall , thus causing suffocation . ¦ » f" ' II .

One hundred years ago there was no Masonio Lodge in fche territory now occupied by the Grand Juriadictious of Indiana , Michigan , Illinois , Wisconsin , Missouri , Iowa , Kansas , and Nebraska . Now Tuliaua haa 470 Lodges , with more than 25 , 000 members ; Michigan , 369 Lodges , with more than 33 , 000 members ; Illinois , 700 Lodges , with 43 , 000 mnmhorn ! Missouri . S 5 S findansi . with 99 OOO V

, , Q— , _ - ~ members ; Iowa , 451 Lodges , with fully 23 , 000 members ; Kansas , 342 Lodges , wifch more than 18 , 000 members ; Nebraka , 198 Lodges , with 10 , 000 members ; and Wisconsin , 217 Lodges , wifch 14 , 000 members . Think of this vast change . A total of nearly 3 , 300 Lodges against none , and a total of nearly 200 , 000 members against a few non-affiliates . Also fine Masonic Homes iu Michigan , Illinois and Missouri , against no Masonic Charity . —American Mason .

A member suspended for dues , owes fco the Lodge juafc fche amount due afc fche time of suspension , as surely and as justly as he would owe the same amount for purchases from his grocer or his batcher ; and he should , iu honour , feel as much fche

obligation fco pay the former sum as he would the latter . Honour demands fche payment , aud fche laws should be BO framed as to compel fche cancellation of such indebtedness As a constituent of the Lodge , he has incurred liabilities—as an honest man he

should discharge the obligations . The excuse that he wishes fco " drop out" is not sufficient . As a member of a firm , the civil law demands that thoso composing it shall pay up all liabilities before dissolution—as a

member of a Lodge the laws of the Order should demand fche same discharge of duty . If payment is refused , the amount due should be charged up to the delinquent and collected by civil process as other debts are collected .
