the purpose of passing Br. Phillips to tho second degree, 
which was most ably performed by tho W.M. Br. Buruidgo ; 
tho other business <>f tho evening being tho election of 
W.M,, and Treasurer for tho ensuing year. Br. Warwick tho 
S.W. was unifuimouaiy elected to tho office of W.M., and tho 
Treasurer, Br. Barnos, was re-elected. 
Lodoe of Prudent Brethren, No. 169. — The members 
of this excellent lodge again assembled on Tuesday last, at 
the Freemasons' Tavern, tho lodgo business being one initia- 
tion — which was most ably performed by tho W.M. Br. Kirby 
— tho election of W.M., and the Treasurer for tho year cuau- 
iug. Br. J. W. Adams, P.M., was again chosen for the impor- 
tant office of Treasurer ; and Br. Hewlett, who had served tho 
several offices leacliug to tho chair iu a most praiseworthy 
manner — which example it would be as well for all aspirants 
for office to follow — was unanimously elected W.M. These 
aud other lodge matters being satisfactorily arranged, tho 
Brethren adjourned to an elegant banquet, to which ample 
justice was dono. After which the health of the Queen was 
proposed, aud received with that enthusiasm which is so 
characteristic of the Brethren — for gallantry and loyalty. 
Tho national anthem was then snug by Miss Marian Taylor, 
Brs. J. W. Adams and G. F. Taylor in admirable style, and 
was greeted with almost anti-Masonip applause. The Earls of 
Zetland and Yarborough having been toasted as W.G.M., 
and D.G.M., the W.M. proposed tho health of the Initiate, 
who returod thanks in an able speech. The visitors’ health 
followod, they being Bis. Thomas Bolin, P.M., 201, Win. 
Goodyear, 227, T. A. Bromley, 276, W. S. Adams, and Banks, 
of the Freemasons’ Tavern, — for which honour they severally 
returod thanks. Br. Temple, P.M., having solicited tho use 
of the hammer, proposed tho health of tho W.M., aud paid 
him a justly-deserved complimont, for tho urbanity and kind- 
ness lie had shown tho Brethren during his year of 
office ; Br. Kirby was well known iu Masonry, and ho 
(Br. Temple) was freo to confess that no Brother ever 
carried out tho duties of tho chair more zealously, 
with moro talent, or with greater good feeling thau 
tho W. M. whose health he had the honour of proposing. 
Tho toast having been received most cordially, and feelingly 
responded to, Mr. Kirby proposed the health of tho W. M. 
elect, and took tho opportunity of congratulating the Breth- 
ren upon the very flattering prospect before them, in having 
elected Br. Hewlett to preside over them for the ensuing 
year. Br. Hewlett was about to quit the chair of the Globe 
lodge, tho Brethren of which would bear a nplo testimony 
to the valuable services, both Masonic and otherwise, he had 
rendered that lodge ; therefore, agaiu ho congratulated them, 
predicting that the year 1855 would be a glorious epoch in 
the aunals of tho “ Lodge of Prudent Brethren.” This being 
briefly replied to by tho W.M. elect, tho next toast was 
that of the P.M.’s. Br. W. Watson being particularly men- 
tioned, it was remarked that Br. Watson had dono "suit 
aud service" to tho cause of this Lodgo, for some few years 
sinco it was quite iu abeyanco, aud it was only through tho 
Btreuuoas exertions of Br. Watson, Br. Adams (tho worthy 
Treasurer), aud one or two others, that this lodge was saved 
from being buried in oblivion ; this was not tho only lodge, 
similarly placed, to which Br. Watson had given tho helping 
hand. He might well be compared to “ Atlas,” for lie had 
certainly borne tho weight of tho “ Globo" for sorao time, 
before sufficient strength was gathered in the lodgo bear- 
ing that name to save it from being disfranchised. Br. Wat- 
son acknowledged tho compliment, and returned thanks for 
tho P.M.'s in his usual eloquent stylo. The Brethren soon 
afterwards separated, delighted with their entertainment, 
which was considerably cuhanced by the vocal exertions of 
Miss Marian Taylor (who sang “Wapping Old Stairs" iu a 
manner scarcely to bo equalled, and certainly not to be sur- 
passed). Br, Hart (who, by-tho-byo, is quite a John Parry), 
Brs., Temple, Adams, Fielding, and Lowick (whoso style of 
singing " My Pretty Jane” was equal to the early days of the 
once celebrated Geo. Robinson). Br. G. F. laylor presided 
at tho pianoforte, and conducted tho musical arrangements, 
PROVINCIAL. 
Newcastle-under Lyni: Chapter of Perseverance, U 
074, attached to the Sutherland Lodge of that number. At 
a meeting of this Chapter on Wednesday last, it was proposed 
by P.Z. and D.P.G.M. Ward, that ten guineas should bo 
handed over to tho Patriotic Fund, which was seconded by 
Companion Dutton, and carried unanimously. 
An encampment of Knights Templars was held »t the Now 
Inn, Handsworth, when it was proposed by Lieut.-Colouel 
Vernon, P.Z and P.O.M. for the county of Stafford, that 
the sum of five guineas should be given to the Patliotio 
Fund. It was seconded and unanimously carried.
