G . M . for Nottinghamshire , and Viscount Holmesdale , for Kent—more especially the first , who is distinguished not only by the fortune
of birth , but by great and rare talents , which have gained for him a reputation as a statesman , throughout the Avorld , such as feAv attain . Of our ovro . labours we shall say but little : they have been arduous , but they have been
labours of love ; neither shall we make many promises for the future , contenting ourselves with referring to what Ave have clone in the past , as an earnest of what it is our desire to carry out hereafter , assuring the brethren that the extent to Avhich the MAGAZINE is improA r ed is only dependent on the support which they accord it .
On one point an immediate alteration will be made . We purpose , instead of publishing the appointments weekly , to clo so but once a month , ancl that in a form that it can be cut away from the MAGAZINE , so as to slip into any pocket-book , for easy reference . To make this perfect , Ave shall require much assistance from the brethren , whom , we earnestly trust will ,
as speedily as possible , forward returns of the places ancl hours of meeting of their respective lodges . With thanks to the brethren for the support wo have hitherto received , Ave look fonvard
with hope in the future , wishing to one and all a happy neAV year , and continued prosperity to their respective lodges .
