ORDERS OF CHIVALRY .
RED CROSS OF ROME & CONSTANTINE . FOREIGN . NEW BRUNSWICK . — The McLeod-Moore Conclave , No . 13 , ofthe Imperial , Ecclesiastical and Military Order of the Red Cross of Rome and Constantine , the Invincible Orderof K . H . S ., and the Holy Order of St . John , under warrant of authority from Lord
Kenlis , Grand Sovereign of the Order in England , assembled at their rooms in Ritchie ' s Building yesterday , when the Conclave was in due and ancient form constituted and dedicated . The following Sir Knig hts , were duly installed and invested , viz : — Robert Marshall , Sovereign ; Thos . A . D . Forster ,
Viceroy ; R . AV . Crookshank , Sen . General ; Joseph C . Hatheway , Jun . General ; AVm . Donald , D . D ., High Priest ; C . Upham Hauford , Recorder ; D . R . Munro , Treasurer ; EdwardAVillis , Prefect ; Robert Shires , Standard Bearer ; S . F . Matthews , Herald ; AVm . Runcinian , Sentinel . This Order , under the
directory of Lord Kenlis and the other distinguished members who compose the Grand Senate , is making rapid progress in Great Britain . We are pleased to learn that onr friend Sir Knt . Robert Marshall has been honoured by Lord Kenlis with the
appointment of Inspector General for the Province of New Brunswick , and we understand that Col . AV . B . McLeod Moore , has been appointed Chief Inspector General for the Dominion of Canada , with power to appoint Inspectors General for the other Provinces in the Dominion . —Telegraph St . John , May 22 .
KNIGHTS TEMPLAR . FOREIGN . ST . JOHN , NEW BRUNSWICK We understand that the members of "The Union De Molav
Encampment and Priory , under the Registry of the Religious and Military Order of Masouic Kni ghts Templar iu England and Wales and the Colonial
Dependencies of the British Crown , " held a very interesting assembly in their Armory , yesterday alternoou . It will be a matter of special gratification to the members of the Chivalric Order , to learri that the equipment of this Encampment and Priory ( supplied by Knight Companion George Kenning ,
Little Britain . London ) is now not second to that of any other Encampment within the whole Dominion of Canada ; and the energy and zeal of its members warrant us in anticipating a bright and prosperous future for the new Conclave . Iu connection with this we might
observe that it would be a source of congratulation to the general body of tbe fraternity in tho City , in fact the Province , were the members to unite and build themselves a structure suitable to their wants , as is done in other places ; for it is a matter of
remark that the rooms now occupied by the Craft are too small and but ill adapted to the wants of this growing Order . Would it not be well for the Grand Lodge to move in the matter ?—Morning Telegraph , St . John , N . B ., May 2-2 .
GRAND LODGE OP IIIEI . AND . —AVe regret to have to announce that , through increasing delicacy of health , the present estimable Deputy Grand Alaster , Sir Edward Richard Borough , " Bart ,, D . L . J . P ., has placed his resignation of that honourable ollice in the hands of the M . AV . the Grand Master . AVe believe
that His Grace the Duke of Lcinster will appoint Bro . Robert William Sheklelon , barristcr-at-law , P . M ., Ill , Dublin , as his successor ; and that , also , the appointment will give general satisfaction throughout the Order . Bro . Shekleton has proved how well fitted he is for the position , by the admirable maimer in which
he has discharged the duties of Captain-General of the Grand Conclave of Hi gh Kni glits Templar , as well as the onerous post of" secretary to one of the largest and most influential Craft lodges in Dublin . MARK MASONRY . — The St . Andrew ' s Lodge of Mark Master Masons being the first of the kind held

Rankin Stebbing Grand Treasurer , was installed W . Master ; Bro . Fred ] Perkins ( thu AVorshipful the Mayor ) , Senior Warden
and Captain Abraham , Junior Warden and Treasurer . About sixteen brethren were advanced to this interesting degree , and tho several offices filled by brethren who are likely to take a strong interest in Mark Masonry . ^ We understand it is twenty-five years since a similar lodge was held in this town , which was then presided over b y Bro . Geo Stebbing . of Portsmouth , tho present Master ' s father .

"Are You A Mason?"
"ARE YOU A MASON ? "
[ The Kev . Bro . Magill , Hector of St . Paul ' s church , Peru , Illinois , being asked the above question by a lady , responded as follows . ] 1 am of a band
Who will faithfully stand In the bonds of affection and love ; Once , wretched and poor , I knocked at the door , And there for admission I strove .
By the help of a friend Who assistance did lend , I succeeded an entrance to gain ; Was received in the West , By command from the East , But not without feeling some pain .
Here my conscience was taught With a moral quite fraught With sentiments holy and true ; Then onward I travelled To have it unravelled What Hiram intended to do .
Very soon to the East I made known my request , And " Light , " by command did attend ; When , lo ! 1 perceived In due form revealed—A Master , and Brother , and Friend .
Thus far I have stated , And simply related What happened when I was made free ; But I have " passed " since then , And was " raised " up again To a sublime and ancient degree .
Then onward I . marched , That I might soon be " Arched , " And find out the treasures long lost ; When , behold ! a brig ht llnme From the midst of which came A voice which my ears did accost .
Through the " vails ' I then went , And succeeded at length The "Sanctum Sanctorum " to find ; By the " Signet" I gained And quickly obtained Employment which suited my mind .
In the depths I then wrought And most cheerfully sought For treasure long hidden there ; And by labour and toil I discovered rich spoil Which are kept by the Craft with due care .
Having thus far arrived , 1 further contrived Among valiant Knights to appear ; And as Pilgrim and Knight I stood ready to light , Nor Saracen foe did I fear .
For the widow distrest There ' s a chord in my breast ; For the orphan and helpless I feel ; And my sword I could draw To maintain the pure law Which the duty of Masons reveal .
I'll us have I revealed ( Yet wisely concealed ) What the " Free and Accepted " woll know . I am one of the band Who will faithfully stand By a Brother , wherever I go .
