LEO . SPECIMENS FROM A MASONIC QUARRY
( To the Editor of The Freemason . ) DEAR SIR AND BROTHER , —I read with great interest the remarks cf our esteemed Bro . W . J . Hughan , at page 79 , and I beg to express my high appreciation of " his labours . I see he g ives a list of the old lodges , with their dates anent , which I am glad
to see that the old 1057 date of No . 3 dis has been deservedly rubbed out and something nearer the truth , " 1109 , " put in . I see the date of No . 0 is " 1128 . " but thereissomemistakehereby thecalendar , asat page 35 , Freemason's Magazine for January 9 th , we find an account of the " Mother lodge ' s celebration of its
727 th anniversary , " which would give the date 1140 , which is the presumed date of the foundation of Kilwinning Abbey . Perhaps the publisher or editor of the Masonic Calendar will look to this ; as by giving 1140 , it would also be coming nearer the truth . The date of the Aberdeen Lodge , No . 34 , is given as " 1541 ''
but as mentioned at page 8 of your issue of Juncl 9 th , the Aberdeen " masonrys of the luge " are spoken of in 1483 . In the list of Scottish lodges which claim to be older than 1736 , which Bro . Hughan g ives , he omits the following : — 4 . Glasgow Kilwinning 1735
10 . Dalkeith Kilwinning 1727 12 . Greenock Kilwinning 1728 23 . Dunse Kilwinning 1730 27 . St . Mungo , Glasgow 1729 28 . St . John , Kilwinning , Kir-Kentillock ... 1726 From a minute of St . Mungo Lodge , written in 1774 , it would seem to have been in existence in 1723 . In
1729 it has the following composition of names as its designation , viz .: — " Lodge of St . John , St . Mungo ' s , Kirk of Glasgow , Kilwinning . " _ I see that Bro . Hughan only intended his list to be composed of those in existence before 1717 , when Grand Lodge of England was formed . I am , yours fraternally ,
LEO . " CIPES " AND BRO . D . MURRAY LYON
( To the Editor of Ihe Freemason . ) DEAR SIR AXO BROTHER . —I am very glad to sec your note at foot of Bro Leo's spirited answer to the calumnies of " Cipes" anent my dear friend Lyon ; especially as you repudiate the reckless and nninasonic assertions of the writer of the article in question . I say nothing as to the merits of the discussion ,
neither do I wish to say a word in reference to liro . 1 ) . Murray Lyon ' s social , literary , and Masonic character . Those who are familliar with the literature of Freemasonry know Ai / n well , and those who are not , are in no position to give an assertion . As to his private life , it would only be seeking to " gild refined gold , " to
speak of it as it merits , so 1 conclude , by hoping another such article will never be found in THE FREEMASON W . J . HUGHAN . Truro , August 14 th , 18 G 9 . ORIGIN OF FREEMASONRY .
( To the Editor of The Freemason . ) " Disparago not the faith thou dost not know . " Shakcspcre . DEAR SIR AND BROTHER , —Your erudite corrcs pondent " Leo " is to hard upon a poor , simple , pro

"Why Do The Heathen Rage?"
"WHY DO THE HEATHEN RAGE ? "
( To the Editor of The Freemason . ) DEAR SIR AND BROTHER , —I regret much to learn that " Cryptonymus " has had to combat with personal afflictions , and can assure him of my ' entire sympathy under such circumstances . My object in Writing is not to provoke recriminations , but I cannot
help recording a protest against my friend ' s interpretation that the tactics at present pursued by certain Continental Freemasons , constitute " landmarks " of the Order . On the contrary we are taught by the " Ancient Charges" to be peaceable subjects , neither
conspirators against governmeut , nor rebels against lawfully constituted authority . I also demur to his dictum that" Liberty is licence , " as I , in common with others , have entertained a directly opposite notion .
However , with this general protest I content myself at present , as I have neither time nor inclination for a more lengthy dissertation . At a future time I may record my impressions of Continental Freemasonry in more shapely and circumstantial fashion . Yours fraternally , VIATOR .
The Imitative And The Symbolical.
THE IMITATIVE AND THE SYMBOLICAL .
The fine arts are merely imitative in their infancy though as they become mature they also become symbolical . And this maturity is first attained by the architect , because he ministers to a want more urgent than the rest , because in the order of time the eilifice must precede the works designed for its embellishment
and because finding m nature no models except from the details of his performance , he must from the first be inventive in the composition of it . Thus the children of Benedict , when contemplating their lofty avenues sacred to meditation , and the mellowed lights streaming through the foliage , and the flowers
clustering in the convential garden , and tho pendulous stalactites of the neighbouring grottoes , conceived of a Christian Temple in which objects resembling these , though hewn out of imperishable stone and carved into enduring forms , might be combined and grouped together into one glorious whole , with a ritual
addressed to the eye rather than to the ear—a sacred pantomine of which the sacrifice of the mass was the action , priests the actors , and the high altar the stage . Nothing more was requisite to the solemn exhibition but the cathedral as its appropriate theatre . It arose , therefore , not the servile representation of
any one natural object , but the majestic combination of the forms of many , and full of mystic significance in the crusiform plan , the lofty arch , the oriel windows , the lateral chapels and the central elevation . Not a groining , a mullion or a tracery was there in which the initiated eye did not read some Masonic enigma , some
ghostly counsel , or some inarticulate summons to confession , to penitence , or to prayer . Every niche without and every shrine within these sanctuaries was adorned with images of their tutelary saints , and especially of her who is supreme among the demigods of this celestial land . But instead of rising
to the impersonation of holiness , beauty , or power in these human forms , the monkish sculptors were content to copy the models cf humanity within their reach , and the statues , busts and reliefs which in subsequent times fell beneath the blows of Protestant iconoclasts had little if any value but that which belonged to
their peculiar locality and their accidental association . In painting , also , whether encaustic , in fresco , or on wood , the performances of the early Benedictine artists were equally humble . In order to give out their visible poetry , the chisel and the pencil must be guided by minds conversant with the cares and
enjoyments of life , for it is by such minds only that the living soul which animates rude nature can ever be perceived , or can be expressed in the delineation of realities , whether animate or inanimate . In ecclesiastical and conventual architecture , and in that art alone , the monks exhausted tlieir creative
imaginations . Covering Europe with monuments of tlieir science in states and dynasties and with monuments of that plastic genius which form an infinity of elaborate , incongruous and often worthless details , they knew how to invoke one sublime and harmonious whole .
In these august shrines , if anywhere on earth , the spirit of criticism is silenced b y the belief that the adoration of men are mingled in " blessed accord with the hallelujahs of heaven .
WE arc requested to state that the Domatic Chapter of Instruction , held at the Horns Tavern , Kenniugton , has suspended its convocations until November , in consequence of the absence from town of many of the members .
WE are informed that a committee of brethren interested in the question of " Uniformity of Working , " have resolved to bring the recent extraordinary occurrences at the Union Waterloo Lodge , No . 13 , Woolwich , under the special notice of the Earl of Zetland , with the view of devising measures to prevent a repetition of such a scandal to the Craft .
Masonic Exhortations.
MASONIC EXHORTATIONS .
FROM THE GERMAN . V . Benevolence . Being created in the similitude of God , who in his mercy and immense bounty communicated himself to men and expanded over them the abundance of his blessings , strive thou assiduously , by making
mankind as happy as possible , to resemble this divine original . Thou canst not imagine any thing good that is not an object of Masonic activity . Look down upon the helpless situation of infancy , it challenges thy assistance ; reflect on the sad inexperience of youth , it demands thy good counsels .
Find thy happiness in protecting them against errors and seduction , the common rocks of that age . Awake in them the heavenly fire of genius , and instruct them how to unfold it for the benefit of the world . Every suffering being has a sacred claim on thy
assistance ; take care not to deny it . Do not wait till thy ears ring with the lamentations of the miserable ; affectionately anticipate the wants of the unfortunate , and inspire them with courage . Do not poison thy gifts by ostentation . Thou shalt not find thy reward for thy benefactions
in the vain and loud applauses of the multitude ; a Mason will always find it in the silent and secret testimony of his heart , and in the sacred pleasure with which the Deity looks down upon him . Has Providence granted thee abundance ? Let it be far from thee to make an inconsiderate or shameful use of it .
Goel has given thee above thy wants , and thou maysl cause those that have received a scanty lot to feel less the inequality of the distribution of the riches of the earth . Enjoy this glorious prerogative . May the most abominable of all passions , avarice , never predominate over thee : may thy heart for ever revolt against the worthless calculations of
covetousness . But should this melancholy vice overpower thee , approach no more the temples of Philanthropy ; they would have no more charms for thee , and we could no longer discover in thee the image of God . Let religion , wisdom , and prudence be the rule of
thy benefactions . Thy heart might be inclined to relieve every want , but thy reason must direct to assist where necessity is most pressing . Instruct , advise , intercede ; be charitable , console according to the exigency of circumstances .
If thou findeth at last that thou art confined , and that thy soul begins to mourn , and to lament the incapacity of expanding as much happiness as thou wisheth , then haste to our temples . Behold here the sacred tie of benevolence , and , contributing as far as thy abilities permit towards the
laudable Institutions of our Fraternity , rejoice at the idea of being a fellow-citizen of this better world , and enjoy the sweet fruits of our faculties united and concentered to one point . The sources of relief will then flow more abundantly ; instead of helping one , thou wilt co-operate to make thousands happy , and thy wishes will be fulfilled .
VI . Further Duties towards Men . Love thy neighbour as thyself , and do unto others as thou wishest to be done by . The faculty of expressing thy thoughts by words is an external sign of thy command over nature ; make use of this gift to alleviate the wants of thy
fellowcreatures , and to encourage them to virtue . Be affable and serviceable ; edify others by thy example , and bear thyself kindly , and without repining at the prosperity of others . Do not sufler th y heart to entertain any envy ; it would undermine thy happiness , and rage in thy
breast . Pardon thy enemy , and have manliness of heart enough to do him good . This generous sacrifice , one of the most exalted precepts of religion , will awake in thee the most benign sensations ; thou wilt represent the image of the Deity , who with adorable kindness pardons the errors
of men , _ and , disregarding tlieir ingratitude , pours down His blessings upon them . _ Always recollect that this is the most glorious victory th y reason can obtain over the brutal instincts ; and thy motto be , " A Masonforgets only injuries , never benefits . "
