a Charitable Society in the City of London , founded in ISSl . and carry ing out under its quaint title the practical work of benevolence and loving kindness towards the poor and distressed of the parish of St . Bartholomew the Great , held its annual meeting on St . Bartholomew ' s Day . the 25 th inst .. at the School Rooms in Cloth

Fair . London . The Society is supported by a large number of Freemasons ; indeed the whole plan and design of the " Almonry " has been founded on that of Freemasonry , and of all the societies we know devoted to the help of the poor , there is not one which , within the limits of its power , effects so much good .

Bast Prior Mr . John Hollinghurst occupied the chair : and amongst those present were : The Rev . B . Savorv . M . A .. Mr . T . Wildash . C . C .. Mr . James Loring , F . C . O .. Mr . T . Thompson . Mr . R . Griffiths , Mr . M . Green , Mr . A . Eve , and Mr . T . Sangster . C . C . ( Recorder ) . The minutes of the last annual meeting having been

read and confirmed . Mr . 1 > . Turner . (' . ' .. was unanimously elected Prior for the second tinio . The grand council was reappointed , the Rev . B . Savory and Mr . R . Peck being added . Mr . T . Thompson was elected Proctor . Mr . Sangster , C . C . ( the Recorder ) read the report . which was of a highly satisfactory character , and for which we should have been glad to

have afforded space m these columns . As we shall take furthei opportunities to refer to the admirable work of this Society , wi shall be content for the present to say that the funds which have been entrusted to it have been most faithfully applied , have relieved a very great deal , of distress , and kept many from

immediate dejiendence on the rates . There is not a large balance in hand , and in face of approaching winter we feel assured that neithei of the gentlemen above named will object to receive any addition thereto , to enable them to still furthei' pursue the good work they have in hand .
