BRO . LORD DUDLEY COUTTS STUABT .

On the 18 th November , at Stockholm , universally regretted , after an illness of some duration , Bro . Lord Dudley Coutts Stuart , M . P . for Marylebone , and P . S . G . W . of the G . L . of England , aged 51 . Our lamented brother was the seventh and last surviving son of the first Marquis of Bute . In political circles Bro . Lord Dudley Coutts Stuart was well known as an ardent advocate of liberal

principles , and especially by his philanthropic exertions in behalf of the exiled Poles , for whose cause he was labouring when death seized upon him . The deceased Brother was a Scotch Mason , having been initiated in early life into the mysteries of the Craft at Edinburgh , in the old and well-known Kilwilling Lodge . After many years' retirement from the active duties of the Craft , he was induced to resume them on the occasion of the consecration of the Polish National Lodge . No . 778 , in which he served every office from that of S . D ., and occupied the chair as W . M . in 1851 . Bro . Lord Stuart was also an active Royal Arch Mason ,

and served the two chairs of the Polish National Chapter , No . 778 , during the years 1852 and 1853 , being appointed Z . in the month of April , 1854 , but owing to liis absence from England , he had not been installed at the "time of his death . The funeral of this distinguished nobleman took place at Hertford , on Friday , December 15 , 1854 . The remains had been removed on the previous evening , from Stratford-place to Bali ' s-park , near Hertford , the seat of Captain Townshend , M . P . Notwithstanding the desire entertained by the family of Lord

Dudley Stuart that the funeral should not be a public one , it was found impossible to carry this intention fully into effect , with a due regard to the earnest wishes expressed by various public bodies that they might be permitted to testify their high respect for the deceased by following his remains to their last restingplace . In addition to Captain Stuart , the only son of Lord Dudley , the Earl and Countess of Harrowby , Lord James Stuart , Captain and Mrs . Townshend , and the younger branches of these families , there were present Sir B . Hall , the

colleague of Lord Dudley Stuart in the representation of Marylebone ; Mr . J . A . Smith , M . P ., and some other very intimate friends of the deceased , Prince Ladislas Czartoryski and Mr . Blotnicki attended as representatives of Prince Adam Czartoryski and the Polish refugees in France ; Colonel Szyrma and seven other gentlemen as representatives of the Polish refugees in England ; Mr . Kirby and three other gentlemen as a deputation from the Literary Association of the

Friends of Poland , a deputation of nine gentlemen from the vestry of St . Marylebone , and of nine from the vestry of St . Pancras . The windows were closed in the streets of Hertford , and the children of Christ ' s Hospital lined a portion of the road through which the long procession passed . The coffin of polished oak , in which the remains were brought from Stockholm , was deposited in the chancel amid manifestations of regret—neither equivocal nor confined to a few .

BRO . GEORGE MOORE . On the 9 th of December , at his house in Warren-street , Fitzroy-square , in his 60 th year , Bro . George Moore , a well-known and highly-respected member of the Fraternity . We saw Bro . Moore in G , L , on the 7 th instant , a perfect sample of good health , but ere forty-eight hours had passed he was hurried from this world

to another and better , by the foul hand of ^ an assassin . The murderer , Barthele ' my ., being yet under examination , the cause tha ^ pj-ompted this h orrid act is unknown . We shall give full particulars of the trial . Bro . Moore was initiated in the Lodge of Peace and Harmony , No . 72 , in 1834 , served the office of W .
