SWISS TEMPLE UNIQUE . TO THE EDITOR OF THE FREEMASONS' MAGtAZINE AND MASONIC MIEEOR . Dear Sir and Brother , —Your readers will probably recollect that in an early number of thisyear * s Magazine , I ventured to caution the Brethren against placing too implicit reliance on a circular letter regarding the construction of the " Temple Unique ' ";¦ ¦ at Geneva , which circular , to all appearance emanating froih the Grand Master of Switzerland , you had copied from a French Masonic pern Although I had not then seen the original circular , nor had any communication with the Masonic authorities in Switzerland , and consequently had acted on my own personal conviction and responsibility , I found on my return to Switzerland that the course I had pursued was perfectly justified . Not only has the M . W . Grand Master of Switzerland written to thank me for the initiative I had taken in contradicting the circular , but I hold , with liberty to publish it , a formal declaration , drawn up by the Grand Secretary by order of the Grand Master , that that circular was printed and published without his knowledge or approbation . It is unnecessary to enter into further details , as the improper use that has been made of the signature of the Grand Master , and of the seal of the Grand Lodge Alpina , will be submitted to the competent authorities at their next meeting . I remain , dear Sir and Brother , yours truly , Robt . 'Jas , Shuttleworth , Ph . D ., Rep . of Grand Lodge of England in Switzerland , Berne , Switzerland , 3 rd April , 1858 .
TO THE EDITOR OF THE FEEEMASONS MAGAZINE ATO MASONIC MIRROR . Sir and Brother , —Having been resident for the last five years in the colony of Victoria , adjacent to Tasmania , and having paid some attention to the unhappy differences which have occurred between the Lodge No . 781 , and the newly-appointed Prov . Grand Master of Tasmania , I am induced , by a feeling of duty , to address to you a few words on this important subject . I notice the address of the R , W . D , Grand Master and the proceedings
