would be sure to obtain good advice and assistance ; and , for myself , I can assure you that any girl educated in this School will always attentively be listened to by me , and it will be my anxious desire , as I feel it to be my duty , to extend relief where relief is needed , and I urge you never to be afraid of applying to me . The children having sung " Good Night" and other hymns , retired from the room laden with the contents of the dessert-plates .

The G . M . next proposed the health of Bro . B . B . Cabbell , Treasurer of the Institution , warmly eulogizing the constant support the worthy Brother had given this and the other Masonic charities . Bro . Cabbell responded in appropriate terms , thankfully acknowledging the state of prosperity the School at present enjoyed . The G . M . then gave the " Healths of the Hon . Medical Officers , " coupling with the toast the name of Bro . Gaskoin , and thanking them for the attention paid to the health of the children—to which Bro . Gaskoin briefly responded . The next toast was " The other Masonic Charities , the Annuity and Widows ' Fund , and the Boys'School . " Then followed "The Stewards of the Day , " acknowledged by Bro . Sir J * . E .

Harington , Bart . .. In proposing the last toast— " The Ladies , "—the G . M . besought the quiet attention of the Brethren , telling them that when he had finished , they might cheer as loud as they pleased . It was very gratifying to have their proceedings witnessed by the fair sex , and he thought they would be wanting in respect if they did not tender them their gratitude for their attendance . He was sure the ladies must have felt highly pleased by the amount of subscriptions , which he trusted would do away with any idea of a want of gallantry on their parts , which might exist owing to the ladies being placed at so great a distance from them .

The M . W . G . M . then quitted the chair , and those Brethren having the entree joined the ladies in the Glee-room , where the same disgraceful scene of crowding , crushing , and noise of former years was re-enacted , scarce one note of the singing being heard , and certainly not attended to . The music was under the direction of Bro . Young , who was assisted by Miss Clara Henderson , Clari Fraser , Bros . Genge and Leffler , and two or three gentlemen , to the disgrace of the Stewards be it spoken , altogether unconnected with the Craft .

The amount of subscriptions announced amounted , as will be seen from the following list , to more than £ 1 , 800 . The following are the subscriptions , with the Numbers of the Lodges and the names of the Stewards : —Nos . 1 , H . D . Sandeman , £ 63 ; 2 , E . N . Bryant , £ 59 . 17 s . ; 4 , C .
