MAEINEBS' LODGE ( No . 163 ) . —A . meeting ofthe members of this lodge Avas held on Wednesday evening , the 22 nd ult ., at seven o ' clock , at the Masonic Hall , Court-place . There ivere present the D . Prov . G . M ., Bro . Gallienne and six members of the lodge only , viz ., Bros . Smvthson , W . M . in the chair ; John Brown , S . W . ; Walkley , P . M " ., and W .

, Guilbert , P . M . 84 ; Hutchinson , P . M . and Treas . 84 ; Martin , W . M . 84 ; Stickland , P . M . 84 ; Millington , 84 ; Horner , 862 ; Cohen , 84 ; Pinell , 590 ; land Stainer , Nicoll , Glencross , Parker , aud Sarchet , all ot 84 . Much regret Avas expressed by all present at the meagre attendance of members , as the business of the evening Avas tbe installation of Bro . John Brown , the S . W . of the lodge as the W . M . for the ensuing year , to whom , on such

au eventful occasion , all its members ivould have been glad , if possible , to pay their fraternal respects by a full and punctual attendance . Most of the members of Mariners reside in the country at long distances from the Masonic Hall , and as a heavy gale had been blowing all the day , and the iveather Avas iu every respect most severe ancl inclement , the rural members ivore thus unfortunately prevented from joining in the labours of the evening . The D . Prov . G . M was tbe officiating Master , and duly

installed Bro . Brown in the chair of King Solomou as the W . M . of Mariner's Lodge for the ensuing year ivith his usual ability , and in a manner which has always appeared to us particularly sincere and impressive , whilst at the same time it has the charm of being a manner peculiarly his own . Owing to the paucity of members present , the W . M . Avas unable to appoint all his officers . The only two we remember as being invested were Bros . H . Hunt as S . W . ; Bro . AVarre , S . D . ; aud Bro . Manger as the Tyler of the lodge . After the closing of the lodge all the

Channel Islands.

brethren present repaired to the refreshment-room , where a generous and appetising banquet Avas laid out , to ivhich ample justice was done before the meeting broke up . The brethren separated at au early hour , by which time the stormy Aveatker had entirely subsided , and all nature seemed as quiet and harmonious as the proceedings of the evening had been , both in lodge and afterwards .
