The Freemasons' Quarterly Review.
Our kind readers , however , must not judge our future efforts by this specimen of the Freemasons' Quarterly Review With brief time , for either choice or arrangement , we have deemed it best to alter as little as possible the tone of this , the concluding number of the seventh volume ; and rather
to let current subjects conclude in the spirit of their commencement , than to emasculate them in their completion . With the new year we shall put forth our strength , and , we trust , evince some improvement in the ori ginal design , untramelled by previous arrangements . Until then , let our
task be considered more mechanical than mental—more the province of compilation than the exercise of editorial judgment ; and we conclude these incidental observations in the words of our excellent predecessor : — "Let the hope be warmly cherished , that those Masonic proceedings which
involve the government , and not the mysteries of the Fraternity , may be so conducted , in future , as to bear the most searching light , and even to challenge examination . "
