THE NEW BELL ' WEEKLY MESSENGER . —We have received various communications upon the subject of this contemporary advocate of the principles of our Order 3 and have been pressed hard for our opinion . We sincerely believe that a Weekly Organ , and one so respectable as this periodical is , may possess great opportunities of aiding the general objects of the Craft ; but in order to effect this desirable end , it should receive proportionate support in circulation ; when by obtaining such
communications as might suffer in their interest by the delay which attends our own " Quarterly ' * labours , its sphere of usefulness might be abundantly proved . We have no jealousy , our notions of rivalry are honest—perhaps somewhat harshly so , —still they are sincere , and we would applaud and uphold all measures which have a tendency to illustrate our "beautiful mystery , " and at the same time preserve the moral architecture of Freemasonry .
