STANDARD WORKS ON FREEMASONRY . KENNING'S CYCLOPAEDIA OF FREEMASONRY . —It having been forcibly represented to Bro . George Kenning that the present price of his Masonic Cyclopaedia has acted as a "deterrent" to many of the Craft , and that a lower amount might . induce many brethren to purchase so compendious and complete a work of Alasonic reference , he has determined , in order to meet these representations and extend the study of AJasonic Literature , to make a considerable sacrifice as well ks a liberal offer to the Cosmopolitan Craft . If he can receive the names of 2000 brethren at 5 s . Cd . each , he will issue , early in Alay , the " Cyclopaedia of Freemasonry " in a plain cloth binding , and post free to all such subscribers . The subscription list will remain open until Alay ist . As this is a bona fide offer , it will not be repeated , for the advantage to the subscribers is so great as not to require further remarks . Bro . Kenning has still copies of the ios . 6 d . issue on hand in the original binding . A circular will , in proper course , be sent to all the lodges , and names may be transmitted forthwith to Bro . W . Lake , 198 , Fleetstreet , London , E . C . If the applications for the new issue should render it necessary , the book may be delivered even before May .

I . contains Anderson's Constitutions of 1723 , being the first complete reprint in England of that memorable book . It is admirably printed and illustrated as it was first issued , and will be found a work of the greatest interest to all Alasons , and especially to those who like still to pore over the ancient records of the Craft . The Wilson MS . Constitutions , which forms the Second Part of Vol . L , is also of much value to antiquarians and the Craft . It is first mentioned in the manifesto of the " Lodge of Antiquity " in 177 S , and the story of its discovery by thc editor has been told in the pages of the Freemason . It is hoped that this will lead to the discovery of missing A 1 SS ., and the future volumes of the " Archaeological Library" will icad . AIasonic students to a clearer conception of the real history of Freemasonry and thc true bearing of its very curious and ancient A 1 SS .

By GEORGE F . FORT . EXTRACT l-ROM AUTHOR ' S PREFACE . The Work ia the result of years of labour , whose original and persistent design has uniformly been to arrive at truth . In no instance are traditions resting on unsubstantial ground adduced as corroborative testimony of the line of research which , after careful examination of facts , he has adopted . Mere legends or guildic tales do not appear in this book , unless produced in that portion of the treatise abandoned expressly to thc traditional history of thc Fraternity . In a word , thc constant and invariable tendency of the author in the ensuing pages is to bring the history and antiquities of thc Craft down to an undisputed historical basis ; and , in the pursuance of this subject , he vvas frequently compelled to abandon Die usual track followed by writers on this subject , and to rely upon authorities whose testimony—found noted in the margin—will be accepted without suspicion of intemperate or uncritical zeal . The immediate argument and scope of the treatise may be briefly stated as follows : To commence with a narrative of thc state of line arts at the decline of the Roman Empire , and also of the propagation of architecture and its kindred sciences by bodies of builders , who developed into the Middle-Age Freemasons , whose history is carried down to the formal extinction of the society as an operative brotherhood in the year 1717 . Among the several appendices will be found a contribution to the History of thc Lost Word , together with other valuable documentary evidence , which is added to make the same more acceptable to the public and Fraternity at large .
