Masonic and General Tidings .
The Excelsior Lodge of Instruction is noyv held at thc Commercial Dock ' Tavern , Plough Road , Rotherhithe , every Tuesday evening at 8 o ' clock . The ceremony of installation yvill be yvorked at thc Metropolitan Lodge of Instruction , 1056 , Portugal Hotel , Klcct-strcct , E . G ., on Friday , January 28 th , 1876 , by Bro . lolin Bingemann , W . M . 33 . The lodge will be opened at 7 p . m . precisely .
Sir Knight John Hervey yvas installed as Eminent Precep tor of thc Mount Calvary Preceptory on Friday , the 14 th inst ., at the London Tavern . H . R . H . Prince Leopold yvill be admitted to the 30 th Degree this month .
The Freemasons in Denmark held their annual grand festival on Thursday yveck . The Grand Master , the Croyvn Prince , as well as Prince Hans , the brother of th e King , and nearly four hundred brethren , assisted at thc banquet . The reception of thc Grand Master yvas unusually warm , and the whole festival yvas most successful .
MASONIC SERMON . —On Sunday 27 th ult ., the Rev . Bro . Mills preached a special sermon in the Trinity Episcopal Church to the Masonic Lodge of St . Mirren , Paisley ( 129 ) , of yvhich he is the Chaplain . Members were present from the folloyving lodges : —St Mirren ' s Lodge , 129 , Paisley ; Royal Arch , 116 , Rutherglen ; Houston Lodge , 242 ;
Operative Lodge , 347 , Rutherglen ; St . Mungo , 27 , Glasgoyv , Renfrew County Kilyvinning , 370 , Paisley ; Prince of Wales , 426 , Renfreyv ; St . Mark's , 102 , Glasgoyv ; Irish Constitutional , Belfast ; Union and Croyvn , 305 , Barrhead ; St . Andrew ' s , 215 , Strathaven , East Kilbride , and Marie Stuart , Crossbill ; St . Winnoch , 205 ; St . Barchan , 156 ,
Kilbarchan ; and a number of others . Altogether there yvere about 250 present . The Rev . Mr . Mills preached a very eloquent discourse from thc 133 rd Psalm , " Behold hoyv good and pleasant it is for brethren to dyvell in unity . " There were special hymns sung upon the occasion by thc choir of the church .
At the January meeting of the Britannia Lodge , No . 139 , Sheffield , notice of motion yvas given that , at the next regular lodge its sanction yvould be asked in support of a petition for a new lodge to be held in Sheffield . We hail this movement yvith much satisfaction , seeing that
tli-re are only three Craft Lodges in Sheffield , viz ., 139 , 2 i / . i . and 1239 , numbering respectively ( about ) ioo , 60 , and 70 members ; thc population of the toyvn being nearly 300 , 000 , there is clearly room for tyvo or three more lodges , and taking thc proportion of neighbouring toyvns , Sheffield has not kept pace yvith thc times .
Thc oldest Freemason in Scotland , Bro . T . Cross , yvho was initiated in the Royal Arch Lodge , Rutherglen , in 1807 , recorded his vote on a ' recent occasion . On Monday , the 3 rd inst ., Bro . Emra Holmes delivered his lecture , "Odds and Ends of Wit and Humour , " at thc Toyvn Hall , Hadlei gh , Suffolk , to a large audience , some
300 being present . In the absence of the rector , the Very Rev . C . Spooner , co-Dean of Bocking , the chair yvas taken by one of the Churchwardens , Mr . Wm . Grimwade , bank manager . The lecture yvas one of a series g iven by various clergymen and gentlemen , tbe object being that thoroughly Masonic one—to assist thc funds for thc restoration of the
parish church . The present rector , who is brother-in-law of the Archbishop of Canterbury , has been most energetic in completing the work begun by his predecessor . On this occasion the Rev . Craufurd Tait , his Grace's son , yvas to have lectured , but thc programme yvas altered , and Bro . Holmes took his place . The lecture yvas listened to yvith
great attention , and was provocative of great laughter and hearty applause . The county Conservative paper , thc " Ipswich Journal , " speaks of it in very complimentary terms , as does the " East Anglian Daily Times , " of the 7 th inst ., and a cordial vote of thanks yvas proposed at its conclusion b y Dr . Muriel , and carried by acclamation .
Hadleigh Church is , in truth , well worth lecturing for . It is one of the largest and most beautiful in Suffolk , and about £ 3000 has been expended over it , yve believe , during thc last few years . In thc interior is an ancient font with a singular Greek inscription , which reads equally as yvell backyvards as forwards , and there is thc tomb said to be that of Guthrum , the Dane . The great tower and gateyvay of the
rectory , yvhich adjoins the churchyard , bears the date 1490 . Hadlei gh was formerl y incorporated , but lost its charter , yve do not know why , in the reign of James II . Dr . Royvland Taylor , once a rector of this parish , yvas burnt on Haldam Common , in 1 . 1 555 , during the reign of " Bloody " Mary . IBro . Holmes' lecture will shortly appear in thc pages of the " Masonic Magazine . "
The racing colours of the Prince of Wales appear for the first time in thc new volume of the " Racing Calendar . " They are— " Purple body with gold braid , scarlet sleeves , and black velvet cap , with gold fringe . "
VISIT OF THK DUKE OF CONNAUGHT TO MALTA . The " Malta Times " says the Duke of Connaught is about to visit Malta , and that Her Majesty ' s dispatch-boat Helicon yvill proceed to Gibraltar this month to convey the Duke to the island .
Thc committee on dedication of the neyv Masonic Temple , New York City , received in all for that purpose the sum of 13 , 771 . 2 s dols ., and expended 9 , 809 . 34 dols ., leaving a balance of 3 , 961 . 91 dols ., which has been paid to the Trustees of the Hall and Asylum 1 ' arid . '
