THO MASONIC RECORD

For February has been laid upon our Ia
BILE by its able proprietors and editors,
John Frizzell q Co. As a specimen of
typographical execution, and paper, it is
unsurpassed by any periodical which has
been issued from the press of the United
States. The artistic appearance of the
pages has been vastly improved by
the abandonment of double columns, and
the presentation Of bold front of exquis-
lite finish, so agreeable to the eye as to
tempt the most careless observer to dip
into its contents. The press work is from
the job Office Of the UNION AND AMERICAN,
to the proprietors of which, the highest praise
is due for the energy exhibited by them,
and the skill with which they have
launched out not only this but their other
first-class periodicals. We are particularly
struck with the excellence of the paper en-
ployed and the brands of the cover. Nor
is the magazine itself only weak-minded
Job dressed in store clothes. Its literary
merits are equal and even superior to its
former efforts. Arson Nelson continues
his admirable history and "reminiscences of
the early days of Cumberland Lodge and
the fathers of our city; a beautiful,
Thoughtful and impressive article on the
"Allegories of Masonry" is contributed
by an eminent brother of the juris-
diction; the editorial constitutes a
searching examination of the vexed ques-
ton of Lodge Membership" as well as
his usual exhaustive articles entitled
''Tidings from the Craft, which contain
all that is noteworthy in the current an
nails of the fraternity all over the world,
and his usual discriminating reviews of
new books, as well as other articles of
minor interest Among the selections is a
memoir of the Hon. Mrs. Aldworth, 1.-The
female Free Mason" the facts of whose
history have never been given in an au-
| thentic manner to the American public
before, as well as other essays of great in
terest to the general reader, as well as to
the Mason. We observe in the ''ti-
dings" a full account of the reception
of the Prince of Wales by the
Grand Lodge of England, and of the
initiation of Prince Rhodocanakis, the
lineal descendant of the Emperor Constan-
tine by lodge in Scotland, and a transla-
ton from the French, giving an account of
the establishment Of Masonry in Italy, as
well as gratifying announcements of honors
worthily bestowed by foreign jurisdictions
on our friends Col. Hal. Claiborne, Capt.
Dashiell, G.. w. Jenkins, Sumner Kirk
patrick and others. We commend the
Record" as a literary magazine of the
highest interest and merit, and congratulate
both editors and publishers on the elegant,
attractive and substantial literary banquet
they have provided. We hope they will be
well repaid for their energy.

gave his name as John Gibson, but is
better known as Philip Brown. He is a
coal black negro, about five feet nine
inches high, and near 81 years of age, and
weighs near 165 pounds. Little doubt
exists but that he stole horse, a black

The golden clasp of another Sabbath is
now set to Times weekly volume. Happy
are we, if within it are written of us only
true words, Just deeds and labors Of love.
II was beautiful thought, worthy of the
Divine Mind whence it sprang, this setting
apart of one day in seven for rest and wor-
ship. Like the blessing of the rain and
the sunshine, it falleth upon the just and
unjust, and many partake its benefits
who never avail themselves of all its sacred
privileges. Yet, listening to the Sabbath
bells to-day, there are many who can say
with the Psalmist, 81 was glad when they
said unto me, Let us go up unto the
house of the Lord.
In reviewing the past week, with thrill
of local pride, we receive another evidence
that the Vlclssitudes of fortune which have
visited our people, have not rendered them
unmindful of the orphans cry, but heart
and hand are, as ever, ready to re-
spond to the calls of charity. In SO nobly
supporting through the midst of reverses
our own public enterprises, our citizens
have not exhausted either their sympathies
or resources. On the contrary, they have
! but expanded their view to frame a more
universal benevolence.
All! Nashville Queen City of the Cum
berland, Graded by mountains and lullabied
by storms, rugged are the hills on which
you are founded, but they are crested
by halls of learning whose open
doors invite the steps of youth to the
highway of knowledge! Your streets have
been trod by contending factions, but still
on either side ascend church-spires topoint
the thought to "a city out of sight whose
maker and builder is the Lord"
Rude, Nashville, have been the blasts Of
war which have swept away some of you
noblest sons and deprived you of many o.
your cherished prerogatives; but the ele-
waiting influences, emanating from YOU
educational and religious institutions, are
like your buried heroes and statesmen
| immortal. 1t is these influences which
will write your eulogy in characters of Ugh
