Masonic And General Tidings.

The installation meeting of the Creaton Lodge , No . 1791 , took place at Freemasons' Hall , Great Queen-street , on Thursday last . A report of the proceedings will appear in our next . At a meeting of the members of the St . Cecilia Lodge , No . 1636 , held at the Royal Pavilion ,

Brighton , on Tuesday evening , the 25 th ult ., Bro . Councillor Nell was elected W . M . for the ensuing year . Bro . Payne was re-elected Treasurer . To Bro . C . Sandeman , the retiring W . M ., was unanimously granted a Past Master ' s jewel . A good attendance of the members marked the important meeting .

We glean from the local papers that Bro . Alderman J . R . Bull , of Bedford , has given a supper , which was as much appreciated as it was excellent , to the Corporation of Bedford , of which he has been so many years a distinguished member . Amongst the guests of Bro . Bull ( who is a member of the Stuart Lodge aud Stuart and Slount Sinai Chapters ) were the following

brethien : —Bros . Captain Polhill Turner , M . P ., Alderman Horsford , Sergeant ( Borough Treasurer ) , Barfield ( P . Z . Mount Sinai Chapter ) , R . E . Roberts ( Governor of the Gaol ) , Capt . Colbourn , H . Allen , H . Young , Lund , and Jarvis . A new lodge of the Swedenborgian Rite has been warranted by the Supreme Grand Council , to be called

the St . Hilda Lodge and Temple , No . 12 , to meet on the first Tuesday in every month , at Lotthousc , in Cleveland . The first Worshipful Master of the lodge is Bro . John Monkman Collier , 1511 ; the first Senior Warden is Bro . Thomas Allen , 5 G 1 ; anel the first Junior Warden is Bro . Hobtrt Dyson Nutt , 1618 . The lodge is started under very good auspices , and promises to be as successful as can be

desired by the members of the Rite . The M . W . Pro Grand Master has sanctioned the removal of the Duke of Connaught Lodge , No . 1524 , from the Havelock Tavern , Albion-road , Dalston , to the Moorgate-street Station Restaurant , E . C , where the future meetings will be helel . We understand that another effort to provide

high-class serial literature for boys is about to be made . Messrs . Griffith and Ferran , whose name since the time of Oliver Goldsmith , has been identified with tbe production of books lor the young , intend to begin with the coming year the publication of a new penny weekly entitled " The Union Jack : Tales for British Boys , "—edited by the popular veteran W . H . G . Kingston . The venture will

have the distinctive character of being devoted entirely to tbe publication of serial tales , and it will thus , it is hoped , enter more elircctly into competition with the pernicious literature supplied so liberally in that form to the rising generation . The authors who are alreaely enlisteil arc known favourites , their names are a guarantee that the

stones will be healthy and vigorous 11 : tone , and while they will recount adventures by land anel sea , life in the Colonies and foreign countries , hair breadth escapes , and scenes and events at home and abroad , they will always inculcate the right principles and manly virtues which characterise the true English gentleman .

Owing to unavoidable circumstances , the Bishop of St . Asaph is obliged to postpone his intended ordination , which was fixed for the 21 st inst ., to February 22 nd next .

Bro . the Rev . Dr . Lee has commenced his duties as preacher at Gray ' s-inn Chapel . Bros . Sir Francis Truscott ( Lord Mayor ) , Woolloton , and Bayley ( Sheriffs ) will attend the re-opening service of St . Sepulchre ' s Church , on Sunday , the 2 . 5 th proximo .

The installation meeting of the Confidence Lodge , No . 1 9 . 5 , was held on Monday evening' last , at Anderton ' s Hotel , Fleet-street . Owing to severe illness the W . M . elect , Bro . Foottit , was unable to attend . The installation ceremony was , therefore , postponed until the February meeting . At the suggestion of Bro . Samuel Webb , Past Master , the Warelens were invested tei enable

them to serve the proper period of twelve months . A full report of the proceedings is in type , but is unavoidably postponed until next week . A meeting of the St . Alban ' s Cathedral Masonic Restoration Fund Committee will be held on Monday next , the 15 th inst ., at 4 o ' clock " to consieler a fresh form of circular drawn up by Bio . Rev . A . F . A . Woodford , P . G . C ., and for general business . "
