THE .... .. ' . \; FREEMASONSMAGAZINE

AUD MASONIC MIRROB .

Anotlier year lias closed , and we have once more to thank the brethren for their support . The year 1863 has certainly not heen distinguished Toy any great wants of national importance . The Eoyal Lady , who fortunately reigns over these realms , has

arrived at the conclusion of that mourning for the loss of her Consort , which has weighed heavily not only upon her , but upon the nation ; and her Majesty may he -again said to have returned into public . In the course of the year , the heir to the throne has been wedded to the Princess Alexandra of Denmark , and rumour already

points to other joys in store for the young couple and the Eoyal Family . In the meantime , some extraordinary changes have taken place in the immediate family of the Princess , which could never have heen foreseen when she agreed to link her fortunes with England ' s eldest Prince . Her brother , a boy yet in his teens , has been called

upon to reign in Greece , under the classic designation of King of the Hellenes ; and her father has unexpectedly , by the almost sudden death of the late King , ascended the throne of Denmark , not , however , without opposition as regards some parts of his dominions ; and we can at present only hope that the two Kings may enjoy a brighter

future than as yet appears in store for them . This time last year we had to allude to the distress prevailing in the manufacturing districts of Lancashire and Cheshire , and the noble efforts which were making to alleviate the sufferings of the workmen . Portunately a fine season , and the bounty

of Providence , has done much to restore prosperity to these districts , and it is to be hoped , ere another twelvemonth has elapsed , that prosperity will be still further

increased .
