We intend , in our next number ( which will conclude the sixth year of our labours ) , to address our readers at some length on general subjects , none of them unimportant , many of them of vital interest to ourselves and to those who think and act with us . We shall not anticipate the effect likely to result from the step we contemplate taking—a mystery like ours will always be respected , in proportion as those
behind the scene are found to be worthy when they appear in public to declare themselves . To be really understood , and not to be suspected of misapprehending or misrepresenting others , is both our wish and our duty ; and we shall not flinch from expressing the one , or acting ivith a proper sense of the other .
Of one great public event we shall take immediate advantage , by forwarding to every Lodge , English , Irish , and Scotch , as well as to every influential member of the Fraternity , a copy of the forthcoming address . And we shall incur no opprobrium in this intention , inasmuch as the expence will fall entirely on ourselves ; and we feel grateful that the remission of an impost will enable us , through the " National Post , " not
only to extend our own personal interest at small cost , but at the same time , to make the general acquaintance of an immense portion of the Fraternity at no cost whatever to them .
MASONIC KNIGHTS TEMPLARS . —A meeting of the Commanders of the London Encampments has been held , at which matters relating to a " General Conference" were discussed . We understand there is a fair prospect of the Advent of a Grand Conclave .
