Br . Ronald responded to the toast , ancl assisted by the brethren , sang , " God save the Queen . " " The rest of the Royal Family , and the Baron of Renfrew , " a most appropriate toast , was received with great enthusiasm . And the R . W . M . said , that to all true Scotsmen , Renfrew should be a revered county , as it was the birth-place of AA ' allace , ancl that , therefore , the title of the " Baron of Renfrew , " was the brightest ornament in the diadem of the Prince of AVales .

"The Grand Lodge of Scotland , and the Duke of Athol , " of " England and the Earl of Zetland , " of " Ireland and its only Duke , " were severally responded to . Br . Wm . Taylor , sung " Burns' Farewell to the Tarbolton Lodge , " and in compliance with the poet ' s request , craved the brethren to give " Ae round for him that ' s far awa . " " The Provincial Grand Lodge , " was given by Br . J . A . M'Kean , who said , that the success of Masonry depended more upon the Prov . G . L . than upon the Grand

, Lodge itself , and coupled with the toast , the name of Br . Donald Campbell . Br . Campbell , for himself and the office-bearers pro . tern ., returned thanks . "The Army ancl Navy , " given by the R . AV . M . was received with cheers . He alluded to the gallant actions fought in the Crimea , where our braves had done their duty up to , aye , past England ' s expectations ; and to the sailors who had warred well even on land . Ships could not sail as yet at the bottom of the seas , nor through stone walls , and it was want of opportunity , and not inability , which forced the

renowned British Navy to remain comparatively inactive . Br . Capt . Letham , in returning thanks , said , that being a Militia Officer , he responded for the Army , somewhat in the like manner as he once heard an officer of Marines respond for the Navy , and trusted that the pluck of the Allies would yet conquer all opposition in the Crimea . Br . Swan favoured the meeting with the " Red , AVhite , and Blue . " Br . D . Campbell , toasted " Prosperity to Renfrew County Kilwinning Lodge , and

the Officers who had that night been installed . " He shortly enumerated some of the eminent Brothers who had in former times been members of this Lodge—Lord Blantyre , Earl of Glasgow , & c , and stated that in former years mostly all the principal proprietors of the county were members of this Lodge , for though now called a new Lodge it was in reality an old Loclge revived .

times afforded the G . K . L . to attend and countenance Lodges on occurrences similar to the present . Br . Robert Thomson , jun ., who represented the St .

Thomson proposed " The Greenock Kilwinning Lodge , ancl Br . Captain Stuart . " Br . Stuart replied , saying that he was rejoiced to be at the inauguration , as it was
