I AM requested by my client , for so allow me to term the amiable lady , whose cause I feebly but faithfully attempted to advocate in the last number of the Freemason" ' s Quarterly Review , to return her grateful acknowledgments for the providential aid which has been afforded to her iu her hour of peril . Since then a posthumous son has been added to her careful love ; making six orphan children all under nine years of age , dependant on the exertions of the widow , guided and supported by the direction of the Almi Father of all
ghty . To those who haye given , my warmest thanks are thus offered , and may they never want the "hearts-ease" they have afforded to solace the affliction of the widow and the fatherless , whose wants are so great , and whose cause 1 venture to continue on the paper , and most energetically to implore of those who have not yet given , that they will spare something from their abundance , their competency , or even from their wants
own , as an oblation at the altar of charity . To our numerous Brethren at home and abroad , for the second time I appeal , and may the spirit of Freemasonry bless the prayerful hope , that the widow and the fatherless may be restored to society and thus prove the truth of our profession—that true charity prevaileth even beyond all other virtues .

Death Of The Earl Of Yarborough, P. G. M. For The Isle Of Wight.
DEATH OF THE EARL OF YARBOROUGH , P . G . M . FOR THE ISLE OF WIGHT .
Sepl . 10 . —The above much respected peer died suddenly while on board his yacht , the Kestrel , at Vigo . The noble earl left Cowes in July last , and had been cruising up to the moment of the melancholy occurrence , being unaccompanied by any member of his family . For the last few weeks he continued to complain of illness , but about a week since felt much improved , and a communication to that effect was forwarded to Lord and Lady Worsley . On the day in question it would
appear that he had partaken freely of some grapes , and that shortly after the meal he was found quite dead . A special messenger left the town residence of the family in Arlington-street , for the purpose of informing Lord and Lady Worsley , at Manby , in Lincolnshire , of the noble earl ' s death . His remains are now being conveyed to England in the Kestrel yacht . The late earl filled the office of admiral of the coast , and the isle and county of Southampton . He was also nominally recorder of Grimsb
y and Newport , and a deputy lieutenant for Lincoln , a fellow ofthe Royal Society , a fellow ofthe Society of Arts , and commodore of the royal yacht squadron , being an ardent admirer of aquatic sports . By special permission of the Admiralty , his yacht displayed a broad pendant . The earldom has the patronage of seventeen church livings . The family is descended from an eminent military commander of the reign of Elizabeth , Lord Worsley , M . P ., Deputy Grand Master , succeeds to the title and estates , which latter lie in Lincolnshire and the Isle of Wight .
