St. Lucia.

_Prelate quoted in Procopius._--In the 25th note (a), chap. xl., of

Gibbon's _Decline and Fall_, there is a quotation from Procopius. Can any

of your readers conjecture who is meant by the "learned prelate now

deceased," who was fond of quoting the said passage.

[Sigma].

_The Alibenistic Order of Freemasons._--Can any of your readers, masonic or

otherwise, inform me what is meant by this order of Freemasons? The work of

Henry O'Brien of the _Round Towers of Ireland_ is dedicated to them, and in

his preface they are much eulogised.
