Ot'R READERS will miss the accustomed article from the pen of their learned and revered historian ; indisposition has interrupted a vocation which he has endoived with a moral value , that can only be appreciated liy the vacuum consequently felt . We , with our readers , however , are grateful to Providence that the gifted mind of Dr . Oliver has not suffered from over tension , as his forthcoming work on the " Landmarks " will
sufficiently prove : we have been favoured with a glimpse , and that glimpse was sufficient—enough was seen to create a gloiving expectation , that an examination into its pages ivill repay the attention of the most studious Mason .
