[ Our esteemed correspondent , Bro . Harington , is justly indignant at tho direct and implied charges contained in the letter of " An American Freemason . " Now , whilst we could not defend the letter , had he written it with a knowledge of the facts , now for the first time published , Bros . Harington and Col . Moore must blame the S-G . C of England alone for concealing
the facts that they bad made so important an appointment as that of Col . Moore as the representative in Canada of the S-G . C . of England , and created a Consistory of S P . E . S . 32 ° . So long as these neglects of the common usages of public life , and the practice of all high Masonic bodies are persisted in by the S . G . C ., and even a suspicion of hole-and-corner acts permitted to take
possession of tbe mind of members of the Order ( or of any Order ) , so often will arise similar cases of misconception as that of which Bro . Harington complains . The G . L . of England has for years past set a good example to the S . G , C ., which the latter has hitherto failed to follow or properly understand ;—although we are assured that we may now hope for a better state of things , since

TO THE EDITOlt OP THE } PUEEMASOXS' MAGAZINE AND MASONIC MIItI ! OK . Dear Sir and Brother , —There are some English brethren inclined to dispute tho authenticity of Bro . Manningham ' s letter to Bro . Lauer in the Hague , but they do it without any reasonable grounds . The letter was found with others by Bro . Noordzick , G . Secin the Archives of the Grand Lodge of
Nether-, lands in Bro- Manningham ' s own handwriting . As Bro . Noordzick is no impostor , but an honest , reliable , and learned Freemason , there is no cause to doubt his statement . And the more so , as the letter boars evidence'in itself , being in its essential contents quite in accordance with the facts of authentic history of the Craft . In Germany , where historical writing is move sharpened
than in England , the letter has raised not the least suspicion . The authenticity of the document is not to be doubted ; some statements in it may nevertheless be questionable and deserve some further inquiries . Yours fraternally . J . G . FINDEL . Leipzic , December , 1868 .
