Tho assembly of French Freemasons which is announced for 3 rd June will seem strangn indeed to English Brethren . That the Craft should gather in general meeting to discuss the clangers of the State , and the action of a political

partyis utterly opposed to onr notions of the Province of Freemasonry . Englishmen have not been slow to express disapproval of tho aims and methods which their Continental kindred attach to philanthropic formula ) common to both , and the Grand Lotion itself has endorsed this

condemnation strongly . But , if we regard the matter without prejudice , it may be thought that our view is narrow and a little priggish . Certainly it would be objectionable in the last degree to introduce politics into an English Lodge .

But then politics with us are not vitally grave ; the success of this Statesman does not mean rioting , destruction of property , civil war , deportation for the vanquished , for the victorious a life or death struggle with the foreigner . But

that is the meaning of politics in France at this crisis—as , at least , a very great number of Freemasons conscientiously believe . Under such circumstances they see a great organisation at hand , composed so largely of persons who have

character and property to lose that it may be trusted to stand by tho principles of order . Shall they refrain from using it , out of deference to regulations and sentimentality ? Beyond doubt the French have been too eager in calling

upon this grand machinery in times past , and they deserved rebuke . But this is no ordinary conjuncture . Whether the meeting will serve its purpose intended , or no , is a different question . —Essex Standard .
