FISHER , Newcastle-on-Tyne . —We regret that our esteemed . Correspondent ' s communication came too lute to be attended to in our last number .

A—There is a distinct ceremony and word for each of the Principals' chairs . If a Comp . nas once filled the Z . chair , it would not be necessary that he should go through the whole of the ceremony a second time , in order to qualify him again to fill that distinguished position , A SENIOR AV . —7 / you have not been installed you should not have taken the Master ' s chair ; but performed the duties in a chair to its right .

Mark Masonry . —Comp . Kettle ' s Letter , and some observations thereon , are unavoidably postponed . P . P - —The Arch Jewel alluded to is of an Ancient form , und if you know the Ceremonies , you will perceive that it does not answer the description given of it in the address from the Chair . If you do not know , then apply to some Companion more teamed than yourself to recite the description to you . Several valuable communications are delayed from the late hour at which then were received .

A BROTHER WITH LITTLE TIME TO SPARE . —We would adiise you to join the Phoari Lodge of Instruction , which meets at the Freemasons' Tavern , on the 1 st , 3 rd , and when they occur , blh Saturdays in each month .

M ., the Karl of Yarborough , is making such progress , that his medical attendants have every confidence in his complete recovery . He is at present , however compelled to abstainas much as possiblefrom businessand is living at his

We have every confidence in seeing him again amongst us at an early datethe more especially , as we know his Lordshi p takes the greatest interest in the success of the next Festival of the Boys' School . Indeed , a second Festival in aid of the Building-Fund would , we believe , have been held last year , in accordance with the expressed wish of the U . G .

Benjamin Bond Cabbell for instance . If we mistake not , it is three years since he was nominated PL G . M . for Norfolk—and during the whole of that time he has neither held a G . L ., or presented hims-lf r or installation . The M . W . CM . should look to this . If a brother , vo matter what his rank , will not perform the duties assigned to him , he should be , without favour or a flection ut once deprived of ins office . '
