BRO . JOHN BOSWORTH . It is our painful duty to record the death of Bro . John Bosworth , P . M ., Treas . of the Granite Lodge , 1328 , which took place on the 17 th ult ., very suddenly , from appoplexy . He had been complaining of a shock to his nervous system from a railwayaccideiif , in which be unfortunately was early in September , but it did not prevent his
attending to his professional duties up to the very minute of his death , which was instantaneous . lie was initiated into Masonry in 18 5 S , in All Soul's Lodge , 170 , Weymouth , and exalted to the Royal Arch in the chapter attached to his lodge in 181 . 9 , and served the office of W . M . in 1861 , and M . E . Z . in 1863 . He was also P . P . G . I . W . in the Province of Dorsetshire . Bro . Bosworth did
not confine himself to Craft Masonry , but was a distinguished member of the Weymouth Rose Croix Chapter , and Knights Templar Encampment in tbat town , in 1862 . He also took the Mark Master Masons' Degree in 1865 . During a lengthened stay in Colchester , he joined the Angel Lodge , No 31 , and was elected W . M . and subsequently Treasurer of that lodge . The Masons of Malta ,
both Royal Arch and Craft , will long remember his five years' sojourn there , when he became an active and zealous member of the lodge and chapter of St . John and St . Paul , No , 349 . On returning to England he joined the Granite Lodge , which had not been long in existence , and twelve
months ago was elected Treasurer , which office he filled to the great satisfaction of the members . Bro . Bosworth was one of those members of the Craft who had liveel up to its tenets , and who devoted himself in a quiet unobtrusive way to the benefit of others . It may be truly said of bim , " He did good by stealth , and blushed to find it fame . "
BRO . GEORGE WOODLEY . Star of the East Lodge , No . 880 . Biethren who annually lisit the " hyaciiithine isle , " as I' .. A . Poe calls the Island of Zantc , in the Mediterranean , will miss a familiar face ; Bro . George Woodley is no more , be iiV paittd this life in the middle of last month , and thus a distinguished and useful Masonic career has been cut
short , for our late brother was scarcely in his fortieth year . The Woodtey ' s hail from Devonshire , but have been ° "g established in tbe Ionian Islands , and are looked upon b y lhc Creeks as one of their own family . Our lamented brother was a sjrecial favouiite with the I'wple , anil his loss is much felt . His benevolence was Proverbial , and the Star of the East Lodge will not only wsc a good worker but an officer which will be difficult to replace .

As a Freemason and a member of the Lion Lodge , Whitby , No . 312 , Bro . Green was honourabl y distinguished among the brethren . He was initiated into Masonry in the
Lion Lodge in 1 S 48 , anrl was thus one of its senior members .

In that arduous situation he displayed superior qualifications , and exemplified high Masonic excellence . He was subsequently Treasurer to the lodge ; and the counsel and aid of few
Past Masters have been more constantly valued than those of Bro . Past Master John Green . The funeral took place on Wednesday , 30 th ult . Despite the heavy rain , a large number of deceased gentleman ' s fellow townsmen followed the cortege , to pay a last tribute of respect to his memory .

The other members of thc Craft stood uncovered on each side of the foothpath as the coffin was borne into the chapel , and from thence to the

Johannessen , who has just returned there , reports that he penetrated a considerable distance to the east , beyond Novaja Zemlja . On September 3 , in longitude 66
bast and 77 . 35 North latitude , he discovered an island which he has named "Ensomhedcn" ( loneliness ) . It is about ten miles long , and level , the highest point not exceeding 100 feet . It was free from snow , with poor vegetation , but an immense quantity of birds . The sea was free from ice towards the north , and south , but drift ice was seen towards the south-east . There was evidence
that tbe Gulf Stream touched the west coast of the island ; the Stream runs in a strong current round the north coast towards the south-cast . Everything about thc ice was favourable for navigation so long as the vessel did not go too near the mainland of Siberia . " The newly-discovered island lies , therefore , somewhat to the south-east of thc region visited by the Austrian Expedition of 1873-4 . The Supreme Council of Italy ( See at Torino )

Johannessen , who has just returned there , reports that he penetrated a considerable distance to the east , beyond Novaja Zemlja . On September 3 , in longitude 66
bast and 77 . 35 North latitude , he discovered an island which he has named "Ensomhedcn" ( loneliness ) . It is about ten miles long , and level , the highest point not exceeding 100 feet . It was free from snow , with poor vegetation , but an immense quantity of birds . The sea was free from ice towards the north , and south , but drift ice was seen towards the south-east . There was evidence
that tbe Gulf Stream touched the west coast of the island ; the Stream runs in a strong current round the north coast towards the south-cast . Everything about thc ice was favourable for navigation so long as the vessel did not go too near the mainland of Siberia . " The newly-discovered island lies , therefore , somewhat to the south-east of thc region visited by the Austrian Expedition of 1873-4 . The Supreme Council of Italy ( See at Torino )
