The Secretary of the Navy las convened
at Washington a general court martial for the
trial Of four aynasters who are charged with
detalcaton. This is a measure which for some
time past we have earnestly urged upon him, and
wo are glad that he has finally concluded TO
do his duty in the matter The paymasters
ought TO be tried and If they are guilty, they
onght to be punished. The compo ,iton Of the
court however, cannot be approved II consists
Of five line officers and two staff officers Its
President "a Admiral l.. NJ GoLpsBoRouGH, who,
in recent report to the Navy Department, adj
vocatcd the abolition of the grade Of paymaster
as altogether unnecessary. The belief that Ad-
niral GoLpsnoRorGu is preJudIced in the man
ncr which his report would seem to indicate, is
not calculated TO secure public confidence for the
judgment Of the court. The people desire that
oven the guilty shall receive justice, and that
every officer who is liable to trial should have the
utmost guarantees for the fairness Of the court
before which he is arragncd.

British Efforts for Peace.

London is the great depot Of the silk pro.
ducts of France. Tho great Lyons manufac-
turers have always found it advantageous to
send the bulk Of their goods to London, be
cause they have thus got returns more
promptly than If they had sold them directly
to the consumers in different parts of the
world. Thus, rs regards the trade in silk
and other French articles, the effect Of the
war is probably more severely felt 10 the
commercial circles of England than in any
other country. This circumstance has not
little to do with the pressure upon the
British Cabinet in favor of peace.
As general rule, JOHN BULLS emotional
nature 10 reached only through his pocket.
When oil England unites in denouncing the
German invasion of France rs an outrage
upon humanity, the plain English Of the
matter is that IL entails pecuniary losses
upon the land of MILTON and SHAKESPEARE.
There is nothing poetical or sentimental in
the English way Of looking upon interna
tional relations but it is a stubborn fact.

The paralysis of French industry by the
war holds out "a temptation to other nations, and
especially to the United States, to emancipate
manufacturers and to encourage native produc-
ton. Lyons ST. Etenne, Avignon, Nismes, and
Tours are the principal seats Of the manufacture
Of silk and ribbons. Paris was the centre for
jewery, bronze goods cutlery hardware gloves,
carpets, surgical instruments, books, aud
women's dresses Nancy, ST. Quentin, and Metz
for lace and embroideries; Nievre for iron works
Seyrcs, Limoges, and Nevers for porcelain; Be-
sancon, Versailles, MOntb6liard, and Pon'arlier
for Matchmaking Sedan, Elbcuf and Louytrs
for cloths Roubaix, Amicns, aud Reims for
other woollen goods; St. Gobain, st. Querin,
and Grey for mirrors and other glass wares.
Many If not most of these localities arc invested
or menaced by the Germans while the depart
ments Of Ilaut and Bas Rhin, the focus of cotton
industry, and French Flanders, that of linen
goods are equally palsed by the German inva
sion. The aggregate value of French manufac-
lures amounted in average years TO about five
hundred millions OF dollars, and tho imports and
exports to respectively about the same amount
annually.
To the United States France sent goods to the
annual extent If about eighty millions Of dollars
and required in return from US about fry mil
lions Of merchandise. Most Of this enormous
trade is interrupted for tho time being and If
ever American manufacturers hope to compete
with the French, this is the time for them to try
their mettlc. Such an opportunity may not come
again for centuries.

Mrs JULIA WARD HowK is 10 be
heard in Association Hall this evening, as all
advocate Of universal peace. and Of the in
huence of woman in Lsin ,ias about that
millennal condition Of the world. We are
always glad TO hear Of Mrs IlowEs arrival in
this CITY, and we cordially welcome her present
mission. Too much cannot be said in favor of
peace and the influence of woman, when exerted
for good ends, cannot be too highly extolled. We
trust, however. that while Mrs. Howg is speaking
upon this interesting theme, she will not omit to
do justice to the exertons which women have
made in behalf of war and carnage. The present
war, for instance, waged between France and
Germany. is largely due TO the influence Of the
Empress Eu0ESig upon her husband, and to the
prominent part which the fashionable women Of
Paris have borne in promoting the Generalization
Of French society. As yet we are sorry to say
that the power of this class Of women is more felt
in the public affairs Of the world than that Of the
pure and beautiful spirits Of whose ideas Mrs.
HOWE is the eloquent expounder. The frail, the
SNOWY, and luxurious women who hay Haunted
in the fashionable circles Of Europe. aud who
are still the special objects of American fe
male admiration, have had much more to do with
shaping the policy and desunes of nations than
the women Of peace aud truth
All the good, pious, and vir.uous women Of
America will side with Mrs. HowE; but that in.
dustrious and influential portion Of womankind
which feels strong in its hold upon fashion,
wealth, and luxury and which plays a great part
in every government, will look upon her efforts
with derison. However, opposition from such
sources should not discourage her efforts. Moral
justice in the long run will prove stronger than
fashion, wealth, and war; but the end is very
distant. II may take hundred or a thousand
years yet TO attain il but reformers like Mrs.
HOWE are none the less cheering, "a they appear

Freemasonry has saved many lives in the

It's efficacy r this respect are as numerous as
they we're in our own war. A story is told Of a

sabre. For time they were parted by the con.

from loss of blood. The Prussian raised his
sword. His foe was past assistance; but before
the blow fell, hasty sign to his victor stayed
his hand. Both instnctvely paused, each knew
that The other was a FrcemasOn, and before they
had tune to think further, both tainted away
