The fa el that these piopos.ils all eeni to linve been made In Rood faith does not appear to convey a s.en.se of lite onstulty to Mr. Biyuii or bin Mil liliters.

The Divorce Evil. n -Hi: 11ECEXT divoue sum- o. us in iickii ine aim cut- mu- 1 National dKelosuies of sli.uneless inaetiees on pait of employes of the Xevv Yoik "divorce liiills" have no doubt had much to do with aiousing the eleigy to action in the woik of bilnging the InlluciiLp of (Jhiisti.inlty moie tlliectly against the wholesale business of sepaiating "what God hath joined togethei." A signifi cant condemnation of divoire as an of fense against the high stands of Hie Christian chinch Is given by the pio-jicu-ed revision of the laws governing the Piotestant Kplscopnl r hutch In this country. The special committee appointed by the lust gcneial assembly of the chinch to act upon the matter has adopted canons which foibid tec tms fiom pci foi ming the eeiemony of mairiage when either of ihe conti act ing p.u ties Is a ilivoic.ee, and also cx c onimunicites Kpisc-opalians who liav been dhoiced and reman y, "except when the peis-on so le-mauylng is the Innocent pany to a divoire secuied on the grounds of adultci v." I' the aetion of the committee is mu lled at the next genei.ft convention of the Kplseopal i lunch, the position will even be mine l.idkal than that of the Roman Catholic chinch in oppo sition lo divorce, as it leaves no pio v Won tin a special dispensation as in the Chin cli of Home. If this canon is in openly undei stood it seems to leave no tech ess for the unhappy victim of the drunlcaid, the vvlle-bealer and all .iiounil ctimlnal and jnil-hiid. H seems scaicely piobable that a letoini so sweeping and iadie.il as this will be adopted, though theie is no doubt that piompt action of the church on these lines will oxoi i a poweiful Influence igulliKt the Indifteienie with which the most sacied obligations of Christianity aie icgaided by many, and accomplish much In tin? Interest of publle moials. This seal of dlsappioval upon practices that tend to dlsiegiiid the sanctity of the mairiage relation cannot fail to have Its offeet, especially In instances wheie litigants .tie possessed of means wllh which to defeat the cutis of law and justice as In the case of the Xevv Ynik "dlvoice mills," wiieie parties wete legnlarly employed to net as pio lesslon.il co-respondents.

Kecent dispatches indl cnte that theie is a feeling of iippie hinHlon, especially untong business nieiti over tho tesults of u transfer at political coutiol of the island fiom the United States to an Independent Cu ban Boveniment. The business inter ests liavo evidently considered how In dependence will atfeet them, and they sceni doubtful. H goes without buy. Ing that they liave watched the ie purutlons for Ihe constitutional con vention, that they have weighed vel tln, pel sonnel ana political competence of 'he delegates, and thai, especially In llaaua, I hey have nuted tho work ing of the city government after the largest practicable nteafuie of autono my had been given tt.

The couiaa of the of(lclaln in cliarg3 of atfalra at Havana, has demonstrated their un iltness for the trust and furnishes most positive proof of the asset tlon Jlial the turning of the coutiol of uf falib of the island completely over to those who ate ut present fotomost in polities will be a Imzardoim proceed' lug. Aceoidlng to the census icliiins the Indian population or the United States Is about 07,000, and experts ay that I heie ulc luobiibly us utility or neaily us many Indians on Ihe continent now as theie were when It was dlscoveied.

VnrtY leinaiknble evidence ns to the business conditions under which the Ameilean people lepudlaled Ittyun Isin, hujh a contemporaiy, Is furnished by the October foielgu trade state ment. In that month our exports amounted lo $163,0!)l.fiO7, an excess over Impott.s of TSJ,47",226, bieaklng all tec otds. To be sure, the exceptional de mand for our cotton had much to do with making this enotmous total, foi elgu maikets having taken moic than ?o,000,000 Avoitli of the staple ut pi Ices neaily double thosj paid last year, but our manufactuies i ut a flgute vciy neaily as large, and theie Is cveiy In dication that the e.xpoit tiade In these ni tides is Increasing lather than diminishing. This mentis: not only that our maikets have been extended, but that our financial position is se cuie. Willi exports for the ten months of this ye.n nppioxlmutlng ri00,000,000 mor" than impoils, theie need be lit tle fear that our coniineice, however II expands, will be hanipeied by strin gency inllhe domestic money maiket; our loieign ci edits can be telled upon lo stand any leasonable strain.

Wonderful Figures. OCTOBER expoilf. allied at ?HI8.09.1,r.!i7, exceeded by ?37, 000,000 the expoits of October a year ago and weie neailv $10,000,01)0 In excess ot Ihe highest pievlously lecoided monthlv lecmd. For the ten expltod months of Ihu piesent year the gain in expoits over the same peiiod last ear is $!CG,.KI1,17S, a showing without ineeedent in inodetn annals. Dining this pculod Impoils incicased by an aveiago of $J,:j00,000 a month, mostly icpiesenting law mnleiials en teilng into American, nianutnctures: yet for the ten months the balance of tiade In the United States' favor was Just a fraction below half a billion dol lais, or $l29lSriti,ol'j gieutei than In the same months of 1S9!. It Is difficult to undeislancl the full significance of these flguies; but when told that thev tepiesent the equivalent oi.in annual avenge addition of slightly more than $7 to the wealth of every American man, woman and child contiibuted fiom other counltics as their tilbute to our indusliial and com meiclal .supiemacy, llio wondeiful ex hibit may be better compiehended. AVhether this $000,000,000 balance of tiade a e.ir comes into the United States in tlie foim of cash or applies on tlie payment of our loieign debts Is in effect" one and tlie same thing. In either case It adds itself to what tlie Ametkan people comnieiflally aie worth.
