STAFFORDSHIRE . Handsworth . — St . James ' s Lodge ( No . 707 ) . — -This Lodge met at the Hen Inn , ( or " Crockett ' s Hotel" ) , Hands worth , on Monday , tbe 3 rd of November , on which occasion Bro , Smith , the W . M ., raised Bro . Lavender to the Sublime Degree of Master Mason . A very beautiful photograph of Bro . Lloydd , P . M ., was then presented the Lodge , in a very highly eulogistic speech , by the W . M ., a similar photograph having been presented Bro . Lloydd by the subscribing Brethren , as a mark of their esteem and Fraternal regards . After the transaction

of unimportant business , Lodge was closed in due form . The visitors ( who expressed themselves in the highest terms as to the working of this young Lodge , the warrant having been resuscitated some short time since ) , consisted of the following : —Bros , tbe Rev . E . A . Gwynne , P . M ., No . 435 , and Prov . G . Chap . ; W . Howell , W . M ., No . 435 ; B . Smith , P . M ., No . 857 ; J . Pursall , P . M ., No . 88 ; G . Hudron , S . W ., No . 88 ; Rev . T . W . Herbert , J . W ., No . 313 ; W . Wigginton , Sec , No . 313 ; J . Pemberton , J . D ., No . 88 ; and H . J . Baldwin , I . G ., No . 689 .

SUSSEX . BRiaHTON . —Royal Park Lodge ( No . 394 ) . —The usual monthly meeting of this Lodge was held at the Old Ship Hotel , on Tuesday , November 4 th , Bro . Wood , the W . M ., presiding . A ballot took place for " Bros . Wheeler and Cook as joining Members , who were elected . A ballot then took place for Messrs . Hayler and Crowhurst as candidates for initiation , who , having been duly elected , were both introduced , and the mysteries of the 1 st Degree imparted to them in the

usual impressive manner of the W . M . The Lodge was then opened in the 2 nd Degree , when Bro . Dr . Cunningham , of Hailsham , was passed to the Degree of P . O . The Lodge was then closed , in perfect harmony , according to ancient custom . We are pleased to notice the rapid accession of members to this Lodge , and on the evening named two Brethren of high Masonic standing were admitted joining members . We believe we are correct in saying the recent rapid rise of this Lodge is in a great measure to be attributed to the excellence of the working under the present W . M .

. WARWICKSHIRE . Uxjgby . —Lodge of Rectitude ( No . 739 ) . —This Lodge met on Monday , November 10 th . There was a good assemblage of the Brethren . Bros . H . J . Bucknill and T . Goodman were passed to the degree of Fellow-Crafts , and other business was transacted . The Freemasons Magazine was brought under notice during the meeting , and several of the Brethren spoke highly in favour of the publication ; it was unanimously voted that a copy of it be regularly taken in by the Lodge .

It will be . gratifying to our distant Brethren who have not forgotten theii mother Lodge , as well as to others feeling an interest in the Lodge of Rectitude , to learn that the past year has been one of . considei'able prosperity , and that its prospects are growing continually brighter . Six new Brethren have been initiated , one is in embryo , and another candidate will be proposed next Lodge . All members of the Craft , who are disposed to visit the Rugby Lodge of Rectitude , will find the Brethren assembled at half-past six o ' clock on the second Monday in tbe month , and will at all times meet with a hearty Masonic welcome .

WORCESTERSHIRE . Dudle y- . — -The Masonic Fall for l < S /> 7- —Tt is proposed to hold the above ( and iH ) W annual ) ball at the Dudley Arms Hotel , early in the ensuing month . A committee , consisting of Brethren and officers from New . 313 , 730 , and 819 , has been appointed to make the necessary arrangements , — to which committee No . 808 will add its quota at their next meeting . The proceeds will' be devoted , as usual , to the charities of the town . With four Lodges heartily working in it , the result should be highly beneficial to those institutions which share the profits thus realized .
