Our NAVY.

|
Our Navy.
| Now, while the country contemplates as DOS
sible general convulsion In Europe-and while
it is seemingly secure In its own distance from the
scene, and in its own non-intermeddlinr policy,
from involvement in the strife--s the proper time
for consideration Of the condition of our navy.
and OF its appropriate use a meaps Of enforcing
due respect for our neutraiisy, and for our COM
merce, during these conflicts. Napoleon, when
the Minister of the United States complained SO
much of the violation Of our neutrality under his
edcts, which were retnliatory to tho British Or
ders i'm Council, exclaimed, "Iet America declare
her rights and defend them on the ocean with her
cannon. That was Napoleon's solution of the
question. The chastisement of the chief agrees
sor would have been followed by the better beha
vior Of others. In the war that followed these
| aggressions we made issue with our most vulner-
able enemy, though he was at the same time the
most powerful-that is, England-though the
feeling OF the country was quite up to what Sena-
tor Dana advocated war with France, us well
as with England-''a triangular war" 1t is quite
certain that the spirit of this country will not
brook any interference with our commerce, on the
part of European bellgerents, in future Yet
how powerless is this great Republic in her war
marine! 1t is the opinion of discreet and we'll
informed men, as to naval affairs, that our navy
is not efficient ut the present moment, in com
parison with the naval force of other powers, as
! it was in 1912; though, since that time, more
than two hundred millions have been expended
upon it.
The presentation of respectable naval force by
the United States might deter foreign powers from
renewed experiment upon our meekness and
torbearance In word, our Government ought
to be prepared to declare and enforce our neutral
ity IN the wars that may happen. 1t is by this
means alone that the United States may be kept
out Of the coming struggle for come it will,
whether from the present future state of
things. 1t is to be remembered that it is not upon
the sea alone that foreign powers may violate our
neutral rights. They in former times took pos
session of our ships and of their cargoes while in
foreign ports under the guarantee both of treaties
and of the laws of nations. The same thing will
happen again beyond doubt. In whatever war
such aggresions should involve us, is it certain it
will be confined to naval disputation9 At the
beginning of the war Of 1912 it was supposed that
the contest, like the previous quasi war with
France, would be confined to the ocean, Yet in
tive years after the political capital of the United
States was in the hands of the enemy, and we
were forced, without due preparation, to defend
our own ports and coasts and cities. So it might
| be again if our naval force should be inadequate
for sea-going purposes for coast defence as it is
now, ts

7 HE GREAT BRITISH QUARTEHLIES
Il AND BLACKWOUD'S MAGAZINE.

Important reduction in the rates Of pest
age! LEONARD SCOTT s. Co., No. 81,
Gold street, New York, continues 10 publish
the following British Periodicals, viz:
The London Quarterly review, (Conser-
vatire,(
The Edinburgh Review, (Whig.)
The North British Review, Free Church,
The Westminster Review, Liberal, ANA
Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine, (Tory.)
Those Reprints have now been in sue
cessful operation in this country Tor twenty
years, and their circulation is constantly
on the increase, notwithstanding the cum
petition they encounter from American pc
riodicais of similar class, and from nu-
merous Eclectics ahd Magazines made up
of selections from foreign periodicals.
This fact shows clearly the high estimation
in which they are held by the intelligent
reading public, and affords a guarantee
that they are established On a firm basis,
and will be continued without interruption.
Although these works are distinguished
by the political sha1es above indicated, yet
but small portion Of their contents Is de-
voted 10 political subjects. 1t Is their
literary character which gives them their
Chief value, and in that they stand con-
fessedly lar above all other Journals OF
their class Backwood, still under the
mastery guidance Of Christopher North,
maintains its ancient celebrity, and is at
this time, unusually attractive from the
serial works of Duiwer aud other literary
notables, written for that magazine, and
frs; appearing in its columns both In Great
Britain and the United States. Such works
as 'sThe Cautious" and My New Novel !"
(both by Bulwer "My PeninsuIar Medal, :"
:. The Green Hand" and other serials, Of
which numerous rival editions are issued
by the leading publishers in this country
have to be reprinted by those publishers
from the pages of Blackwood, after it has
been issued by Messrs. Scott q Co, SO that
subscribe rs to the reprint of that Magazine
may always rely on having the earliest
reading Of those fascinating tales.
aS Remi,tances and communications
should be always addressed, post paid, to

An Appeal to the Thin king


"Among all the contrivances of men to
protect the family circle from want, none
'si7 can be found mere simple in its character,
m noble in its features, or certain in its results,
than Life Insurance. It is the prop which
the dying husband leaves to support the wife
Of his bosom - It ie+ the unseen hand OF the
provident father, reaching forth from the
grave, and still nourishing bis offspring, and
keeping together the family group. By it,
. the faithful son protects his aged parents,
even where he has preceded them into eter
nifty; through it the honest debtor satisfies
sa5 his confding creditor, when fate seemed
!, asst propitious. In moral and worldly
sense, it is one great weapon by which to
rob death of its sting.
''Let any husband, father, son, ask him
4, self, If was to die tonight, would those
who are dear to me be safe from the pangs
Of want? Would these children have q
comfortable home, and the means of educ;-
ti.n? Would this wife be independent of
the cold charities of the world? Would this
e-s aged and feeble parent be provided for p
Would my estate pay my debts? Would
there be no sacrifice of property by forced
sales of an administrator to meet the de-
mands of creditors-sales made when the
market tends downwards, and fair prices
cannot be realized -
''How few can answer these questions to
their satisfaction They fear to ask them,
AMI cherish the belief that they have a long
lie. sc on life. This is both foolish and
cowardly. The brave man looks the danger
in she face, that he may grapple with it
the wise man, that he may study it's nature
anal palliate its threatenings. The means
of palliation are at hand, of easy access to
aiI-it is Life Insurance.
Young men just starting in business,
whose chief capital is their energy and in
tet,rity, should insure their lives to the
amount of half their liabilities. Such an
act of disinterested honesty, when known
to their creditors, would justly increase
their confidence in them. It would show
that they did not wish to leave their best
friends exposed to any avoidable contingent
cy; and the annual premium might fairly
be regarded as the tribute which an upright
h'',rt pays at the shrine of justice.
