Consecration Of The Kent Dale Lodge Of Mark Master Masons, No. 195.

" THE MASONIC MAGAZINE . — We take the following from the "Philadelphia Keystone : "—The London "Masonic Magazine" for September contains a number of interesting and valuable Masonic papers . Brother Hughan furnishes an exact copy of the " Rawlinson MS ., " from a transcript made about A . D . 1730 . Bro . Woodford , the editor , gives a review of the " Domesday Book , "

together with a fac-simile page of the ori g inal Latin from the Book , which makes a handsome frontispiece to this number of the Magazine . Our recent editorial article in " The Keystone" on " The Goose and Gridiron "is also reproduced , together with the illustration accompanying it . In connection with it the editor kindly remarks : — " We note that " The Keystone" has just reached its decennial

anniversary , and we beg to offer the editor and publishers our fraternal good wishes and hearty sympathies . A better conducted paper we do not know . " Thanks , Bro . Woodford . Praise from " Sir Hubert" is praise indeed . A NEW INTELLIGENCE DEPARTMENT . —It appears that the minds of the people about Dinapore , Patna , and the neighbourhood have lately been seized with the belief that

the British soldiers have orders to decapitate all natives abroad after sunset , or found in secluded places . The heads are deposited in the Masonic Lodges , and thence distributed over foreign countries , and by their means the Sarkar is accounted able to gain intelligence of all political intrigues . So implicitly is all this nonsense believed that no native servant will stir abroad after dark , and even " respectable men of business" are said to

accept the general delusion . This delusion is said to represent a well-known ancient superstition , and there have been times when such terrors on the part of the people were not quite so imaginary as they are now . But the fact that even now they readily do believe such things of us is very significant . It is said , too , that equally such rumours have found credence even in Calcutta , and lhat quite recently . — " Allen ' s Indian Mail . "
