Bro . George Kenning has just issued the " Cosmopolitan Masonic Calendar , " and we are pleased to find it is in every sense well worthy of the name .

chapters , encampments , Jtc , in Great Britain and Ireland , as also a mass of general Masonic intelligence from the various Foreign Grand Bodies . Although the Cabndar contains 282 pages of closely printed matter , it is published at the nominal price of two shillings per copy . — Cornish IFeekli / News .

Into the compass of an ordinary pocket-book the compiler of this work has managed to compress a vast fund of information concerning the Masonic Orders . As a pecket book it is equal to any other , and has a good blank diary . In the details concerning the

Craft we find lists of all the Lodges 111 the United Kingdom ; the oliicers of the United Grand Lodge ; and a variety of matters giving the official state of the Masonic Orders in all parts of the world . Every Mason who uses a pocket book should purchase this . —Ipswich Journal .

A convenient and handy pocket book of nearl y , 300 pages . Independent of its special interest to Masons , it gives an insight into the magnitude of the Masonic fraternity , which will astonish those who have never thought upon the question . The calendar is a most comprehensive Masonic book of reference , and invaluable to every English Mason . —Le ' vjh Chronicle .

sivc book of reference , embracing a !! the lodge in Great Britain , Ireland , and the Continen with particulars of every Grand Masonic body in the world . There is a mass of statistical infori ' nation to be found within its 288 pages . — Mackay ' s National Freemason .

We are under fraternal obligations to Bro . George Kenning , of No . 19 8 , Fleet-street , London , for a copy of his admirable Cosmopolitan Masonic Calendar . It contains full particulars of every Grand Masonic Bod y throughout the globe , besides a diary for the

whole year . —Keystone . We are indebted to the publishers of the London Freemason for a copy of the " Cosmopolitan Masonic Calendar , " being a comprehensive Masonic book of reference . It is a work that has been compiled with a great amount ot care , and is indeed a valuable work , and no

Masonic library is complete without a copy . It contains a list of all the lodges in Great Britain , France , Germany , and Italy , together with full particulars of ever } ' Grand Masonic body throughout the globe . It is a valuable book of reference , and such a one as would be advantageous to any Mason , wherever he might be located . —Loomis ' s Masonic and Musical Service .

A comprehensive and compact almanack , pocket book , and directory of masonic information . In addition to the usual attributes of a pocket book , it contains lists of Lodges , of officers , and of chapters , encampments , and conclaves , not onl y in the United Kingdom , but throughout the world . —Northern Fclto , Darlington .

We have much pleasure in calling attention to this useful little pocket-book , which contains valuable information and intelligence concerning matters Masonic , which must be greatly prized by "the brethren of the mystic tie . " To the outside world , amongst whom we are content to

number ourselves , the compendium before us indicates the universality of a benevolent Institution , which , with its numerous ramifications , orders , and degrees , is spread over the whole face of the globe , and which if it does not perform all the good which its supporters assert , merits

some degree of consideration from the number of eminent men who we find ranged under its banners . We are told that no true Freemason can be a bigot , and we should say , though we are of course open to correction , that every Freemason must perforce be a liberal ; and yet the

nonpohticat character of the body in this country , is amply exemplified by the names of the principal ollice bearers—for whilst we see that the Marquess of Ripon occupies the important position of Grand Master of England , H . R . H . the Prince of Wales is described as a Past

Grand Master ( though we believe , he never accepted the office of Grand Master ) ; and the Earl of Carnarvon occupies the second place in the Craft , that of Deputy Grand Master j and Sir Albert Woods , Garter King at Arms , is appropriately placed as Grand Director of Ceremonies . —Essex Standard .
