MASONIC FESTIVITIES .

PICNIC OF THE MARINERS' LODGE , LIVERPOOL . Favoured with splendid weather , the heat being tempered by a genial breeze , with a large ancl spirited party , and a p leasant locality as the scene of the " out , " the annual picnic ofthe Mariners' Lodge , No . 249 , which took place on Wednesday , thc 161 I 1 inst ., was one of thc most sue . ccssful as well as enjoyable which have yet been held . Thc party , which numbered nearly 100 , started from the George's Landing-stage shortly before eleven o ' clock , and and the journey to Ikcston Castle , the scene of the day ' s picnic , was quickly accomplished . Very few places within a day ' s journey by railway arc so picturesque , and the historical associations connected withjthe castle , now in ruins , are many and interesting . In tlie reign of Richard II . Bceston was selected as the safest place of deposit for thc king ' s treasure and jewels , valued at 200 , 000 marks , and guarded by 100 men-at-arms ; but these valiants tamely surrendered the place , without resistance , to the

Duke of Lancaster . In 1042 it was garrisoned by the Parliamentary forces , but subsequently captured by the Royalists—a feat which was accomplished partly through thc treachery of the commanding officer in possession , and partly through the bravery of a captain attached to the attacking forces . Tlie Royalists held possession till nearly the end of 1644 , when a second attack was made by the Parliamentary forces—at first without success , but in another attempt they regained the place , when they found " neither meat nor drink in the castle , but only a piece of a turkey pie and a live peacock and a peahen . " These are a few ofthe leading incidents in tlie history of this venerable relic , whicli , as thc historian says , " battered and time-worn , still looks proudly over thc great vale of Cheshire . " 'I'he view from the summit is magnificent , embracing the estuaries ofthe Dec and Mersey , the towns of Liverpool and Chester , and extending in the other direction as fas as Ruabon , in Denbighshire . Immediately on their arrival , the pic-nickers started for the top of the hill , wiierc for some time they enjoyed the lovely landscape , which stretched away as far as thc eye could reach . Sight-seeing over for a time , they again descended the bill , at the base of whicli . he refreshment tent was pitched , witli whetted appetites , and quickly did full justice lo an excellent dinner provided with great liberality by Jlr . Holland , of Chester . With the " sharp edge" taken off their appetites , the happy outers again climbed the hill , where abundant amusements were furnished for almost every taste . Amongst these out-door sports were croquet , bat and ball , football , games , dancing , & c . ; while a number of inveterate fern-hunters found congenial enjoyment

111 gathering rare and choice specimens of particular orders . Several hours were thus pleasantly spent , and on the way to the all-important tea a flying visit was paid to what was modestly called the " sand holes , " but which were more properly a series ofravrs ofthe most striking character , lighted by ingeniously at ranged Chinese lanterns , provided fur tlie occasion , which greatly added to the picturesque beamy of the interior . After tea , lhe large party again entered upon the enjoyment of games and dancing ; , with great gusto , until 11 glitfall and a slight fail of rain , when " unel . s" were made fur the station , and a start made ftr Liverpool , which was reached in due time . After tea , on the million of lirother J . K . Smith , P . M ., and M . C , a coidial vote of thanks was given to Pnother II . Pearson , W . M ., for his efloits in connection wiihthe pleasant day ' s proceedings . A similar compliment , on the motion of lirother Pinninglon , was given to lirother Smith for his indefatigable exertions in carrying out the arrangements . Mr . Cawley , a ; -enl lo the estate , also received a cordial vote of thanks for his kindness in allowing the party to visit and inspect the grounds , and thc Secretary was ivquesteduisend him a letter conveying the thanks so cordially given .
