THE GRAND MASTER . FOR the twenty-sixth time His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex was re-elected Grand Master of Masons in a very numerous assembly of the Grand Lodge , on the 6 th of this
month—one general burst of feeling proclaimed the happy event . The Birth day Festival , held in honour of His Royal Highness , passed off with all the usual demonstration of loyalty and affectionate regard for his person , and , considering that the Stewards were limited in numberthe
, attendance was highly creditable to their exertions . The Chairman , the Hon . Colonel Anson , acquitted himself with the greatest honour—his addresses were all delivered with peculiar tact and felicity , and not one but told well—especially his observations upon the honoured object of the meeting , and his remarks in reference to the
Earl of Durham , his immediate predecessor as Chairman of the Birth-day Festival . It is due to the Stewards generally to state , that they maintained most excellent order ; that upon no former occasion had better spirit , liberality , and attention been displayed ; in particular Mr . Steuart , M . P ., the Vice President of the Board , seconded the efforts of the
Chairman by his assiduous courtesy . The Boards of General Purposes and Finance present no novel features ; their reports have been confirmed by the Grand Lodge , and the various recommendations have now become law .
