TO CORRESPONDENTS .
Brethren having clean copies of No . 1 of the Masonic Mirror on hand , which they do not require for binding , may receive full price for them at the Office , 2 , Red Lion-court , Fleet-street . Thos . Eagland , P . M ., No . 364 and 384 . — -We think our Correspondent has taken undue umbrage at the letter of a P . M . of a Yorkshire Lodge , which appeared in the Masonic Mirror of December . The letter in no way casts any slur upon Bro . Eagland , the immediate P . M ., as he seems to think ; and , although there may have been good reasons for the absence of nearly the whole of the
Officers of the Lodge on a particular occasion , we must agree with our correspondent , that it does not look well , or speak much for the efficiency of the working of the Lodge , to find the W . M . obliged to vacate his seat to a P . M . and four of the Officers absent . If , however , the Junior Members of the Lodge are , as Bro . Eagland informs us , and which we , therefore , have no reason to doubt , " so well ' up ' in the working of the duties of the Lodge that the ceremony of initiation was gone through in a proper , impressive , and truly Masonic style , " it must be a matter of regret that they are not the Office-bearers . With regard to the name of our Correspondent , though known to us , it must be evident we could not give it up , under any circumstances .
J . 11 . and other Correspondents . —We never publish anything which the law forbids . "E . Rainey , "—It is the Mark Jewel . The ribbon should be blue , with a narrow stripe of red on each side . We trust the Mark Degree will be acknowledged by the Grand Lodge of England in March next as an integral part of Ancient Masonry .
" C . P . "—Boston . —We certainly are of opinion ( though it is not the general practice in England ) it would add much to the value and importance of Lodges of Instruction , if duly-qualified Brethren were occasionally to deliver lectures expatiating on the rites and ceremonies of our Order , science , and art . We do not consider it compulsory on Lodges of Instruction to confine themselves to the ritual or regular lectures on the different degrees , so long as they are careful to keep themselves within the landmarks of the Order . In Scotland , America , and other places , lectures such as we have alluded to as desirable , are delivered in open Lodge .
"Bro . T . W . Dominy . "—We regret the omission . It must have occurred from misadventure . " W . W . "—You are in the right course . Do not be afraid of threats . So long as you do not violate your Masonic obligation , the P . G . M . haw no power to prevent your attending P . G . L . Our Colonial and American intelligence , as well as some interesting communications , are unavoidably postponed until our next .
