As 1T SHOULD BE.-For long time the
warmest feelings of friendship have existed
between the Masons of this city aud those of
Charleston, 8. G. 1t will be remembered
that some years ago several Of the frater-
nifty of this city presented to one Of the
lodges Of Charleston massive marble altar,
which gin was appropriately acknowledged.
Some weeks ago the Washington Masons
received tickets and an invitation to visit
Charleston and attend a grand fair now
being held for the benefit OF the children Of
Southern Masons who fell during the late
war. As business would not allow their
presence with their friends they sent their
regards In the shape Of rich and highly
ornamented urn, salyer and goblets, with a
letter suggesting that 1t should be put up at
the fair TO be voted for, and the lodge or
chapter receiving the highest number OF
votes should receive 1t. The following
answer was received to this communication
