The Freemasons' Quarterly Review.
THE ASYLUM . —The Committee of this most excellent institution have put forth a circular , which will be found in its proper place among the other interesting notices of its affairs , by which the Craft will perceive that its utility will be put into immediate operation ; and we feel particularly desirous that the Provincial Brethren should notice that
there is no likelihood of any preference being given to the metropolis in the candidateship ; the election will take place in July , and will be the most interesting meetino- that ever occurred in the annals of Masonry . The Treasurer has received the liberal donation of 25 / . from the Stewards of the recent ball ; the late Festival Stewards are beating up for recruits
to be prepared to " march forward" on the 19 th of June next , the day fixed for the fourth Anniversary Festival , to which we most earnestl y invite all who have hearts to feel , to press forward , and enjoy that moral treat which true generosity will , we trust , abundantly provide for their aged Brethren . — " May the Great Architect give us grateful hearts , and supply the loants of others "—a most applicable
grace . And , lastly , we implore all collectors of subscriptions , all Lodges who feel disposed to support this holy cause , to urge themselves at " top-most speed ; " so that on the clay named , there may be such a list of subscriptions , as shall set at rest this vital question . Be it remembered , that every the amount has
year progressively increased ; but still it is a matter of necessity as well as of propriety , to refute prejudice and doubt , by acclamation of the principle , and by the largess of extended liberality . " Be of good cheer , " ye firm supports of the Asylum , and forget not the principles that Freemasonry teaches . Remember that
Noah triumphantly built the Ark , though opposed and ridiculed b y all the world . Zerubabel built the Second Temple , notwithstanding the intervention of Sanballat and his company ; and take to your hearts the interesting hope , that a grateful posterity will , with one voice exclaim , « Well done , ye good and faithful Stewards ! ye have raised an edifice and opened the gates , which we can proudly enter .
