important particulars of the proceedings of the Grand

Natchez
The Grand Lodge, 1. o. o. F., convened at
Natchez on the 21st. of July and continued in ces-
sion three days, during which time considerable
amount OF business was transacted, both of To-
cal and general nature. The reports from subor-
dinate Longes showed clearly that the Order is in
a healthy and fourishng condition in this State
a uniform constitution was adopted for the subor-
dinate Lodges, working under the jurisdiction of
the Grand Lodge of this State. This consttu-
ton is to go into effect the 1st of June, 1852
on or before which time the Grand Secretary will
furnish each subordinate Lodge with as ,1any cop
pies of the constitution as they have contributing
members.
The next session of the Grand Lodge will be
held in Vicksburg ON the 3rd Monday of July,
1852.
