FOR THE MASONIC
CELEBRATION.

The Masonic parade, on the occasion OF lay
ing the cornerstone Of the new temple, pro-
misses to be one OF the events of the season,
and Charleston may look forward to visits
from thousands of our friends from the coun-
try. The Master Masons will be allowed TO
pass over the railroads and back for one fare
only; and besides the crowds this induce
ment will galher, large numbers of repre-
sentalives from the adjoining States will be
present 10 take part in the fsslivi-
ties of an order as universal as the
world Itself. At late meeting Of the
committee on decorations some exquisite de-
signs were handed in by Mr.. John H. Deve-
reux. At the crossing Of, King and Went
worth streets, The sight of the cew temple,
triumphal arch viii be erected, in imitation
of The "Arco di Constantine" In Rome, the
side arches covering the sidewalks, and the
main arch crossing at one span the entire
street. and attaining at the apex OF the arch
an elevation OF soma forty feet On the side
Of the street will be balustradeI and just above
it large platf,rm fer the band, the whole to
be surmourtei by banners, flags, drapeiy, &c.
Upon the ladies' will devo've the pleasing task
of preparing wreaths, garlands and flowers
for the decorations. Alarge and commodlous
platform will be erected In King street, oppo-
site Mr.. Holiness book store, with rostrum
for the speakers, extending over and COM
manding view of Wentworth street, east
and west. 1t is also hoped that the owners Of
the adjoining: buildings will ornament their
fronts, and thus contribute to the general
effect. Charleston has not had gala day for
long time, but this Is likely 10 be an occa-
sion TO be remembered.

The final trial of the new cotton press, de-
sipued and built by Mr.. John F. Taylor, of
the firm of John F. Taylor l. Co., at their ex-
tensivs workshops, full description Of which
appeared in The News Of Saturday. took
place on Saturday morning, in the presence OF
a number of the business and "cotton" men OF
the city. The press was set 10 motion, and turned
out one hun ired and three bales. ready for
Shipping, In about eighty minutes. Many OF
these bales, owing to the bursting OF the tiee,
had to be Put on the press twice, and the
average work performed was seventy-hVe
bales In the hour in first-rate shipping order.
The builders claim that the work done by the
new machine is far superior to that of the
old presses, and that the difference is already
known to shippers. The performance Of the
press was eatirely satisfactory, and 1t was at
once received by Mr.. John Hanckel, fDr whom
1t was made. Accepting the invitation
OF the proprletors, the company assembled al
forwards entered the machine shops of Messrs
Taylor & Co., and there inspected colossal

upon the anvil, was welded and beaten into

strikes a dead blow of hvs thousand pounds,
and the valve arrangements are 30 perfectly

lately turned out at these shops, are the iron
fronts for the new Masonic temple, and an i'm
