High Priest; the R. w. Randall D. Ken.
ney, P. G.. S.; several Royal Arch Masons,
and the officers Of Oriental Lodge. The
rest of the rank and file of the Order, occu-
pied seats in front of the platform.
MitchelI's Band occupied another plat
form to the right of that occupied by the
grand officers, and celebrated organist
presided at an instrument Of tremendous
power and compass, to the left Of the
same.
The exercises commenced by brilliant
voluntary on the organ, continuing for fif-
teen minutes, displaying the master skill
Of the player over the keys of that instru-
ment.
In the absence of Rev. J. NJ. Williams,
prayer was offered by Rev. Richard Rob
inson, after which the brethren sang
splendid opening ode to the tune of Men
don.
The Rev J. t. Holly, the orator of the
evening, was then introduced, and proceed
ed to deliver an address an hour in length,
defining the aims and objects of Free Ma
sonry, giving historical account of its rise
and progress, and concluded by stating the
origin Of the order among the colored peo-
pie of the United States. The address
was considered creditable and satisfacto-
~ effort by all who heard it.
At the conclusion of this address the
band discoursed some soul-inspiring music,
to the tune of Bruce's Address, after which
the Rev. j. Sclla Martin, the poet of the
evening, was introduced. The announce
ment Of the name Of this distinguished man
was the signal for shout Of dsafening ap-
plause, and throughout the delivery of his
Masonic poem he was constantly interrupt
ed by similar demonstrations of approval,
which this brilliant production spontane-
ou8ly elected. His subject was, "The Ma
son and the Man." and was treated with
masters hand. 1t had the ring of the true
poetic steel, and contained
Thoughts that breathe and words that burn -
The delivery of this poem occcpied about
forty minutes, and was very appropriately
followed by the Marsellaise Hymn, played
by the band.
A closing ode was then sung, by the
brethren, the benediction pronounced by
the Rev. Jno. Taylor, of New Rochelle,
and procession of tho brethren formed
to march to Union Hall, where supper was
served up.
The whole affair was splendid success,
and reflects the highest credit upon the
ID members of Oriental Lodge An audience
Of about five hundred persons, white and
colored, were present in Brewster's Hall,
and about four hundred were present and
partook Of supper in Union Hall The
supper is said to have been the best ever
@seryed up in that hall. Among the dis
hnguished auditors from abroad in Brews-
terS Hall were ]. Holland Townsend, Esq,
Rev. Amos G. Beman, and the Rev. Saml
d N Giles.

E ciety took place on the Feast of the Holy
