I feel how utterly idle it is to attempt to soften , by any appeal to religion , honour , or humanity , a heart that for sixteen years has been coldly petrifying in the dark cavern of a virulent churchman ' s breast . It is only to the Masonic body and the public that the reverend sufferer can
look for that justice which a Christian bishop denies . Improper and unmasonic attempts have been made to render inoperative the truly fraternal exertions of the Chelmsford Lodge of Good Fellowship in Mr . Harvey ' s behalf .

, of the cold soulless worshippers of rank , and the flatterers of mammon ? Or will Englishmen and English Masons judge of humanity by their own standard ? Will they stand by and see an innocent victim hustled hungering into his grave by the oppressor , or will they give their countenance and subscribe their mite to save him ? HIRAM .

I have heard of the Supreme Council of the 33 rd degree , but do not know whether the above degree , of Princes of Jerusalem , is a part of their system . Your obedient servant , AN INQUIRER .
f _ The very interesting degree , called the Grand Council of Princes of Jerusalem , is the 16 th degree of the Ancient and Accepted Rite of which the Supreme Council of the 33 rd degree is the head in this country . " An Inquirer " will have the opportunity of knowing more of the 16 th degree in the course of the spring , when it will be conferred under the authority of the Supreme Council . —ED . ]]
