OTHER FOREIGN QUESTIONS.
Political and commercial interests OF
the United States are not unlikely to be
affected in some degree by events which
are transpirmg in the Eastern regions OF
Europe, aud the time seems to have
come when our Government ought to
have a proper diplomatic representation
in Greece.
This Government has claimed for all
persons not convicted, or accused, OF
suspected Of crime, an absolute political
right OF self cxpatriation, and choice
of now national allegiance. Most of tho
European States have dissentod from
this principle, and have claimed right
to hold such of their subjects as have
immigratod to and been naturalzed in
the United States, and afterwards re,
turned on transient visits TO their ma
tive countries, to tho performance o.
military service in like manner as resi-
dent subjects. Complaints arising from
the claim in this respect made by for
eign States have heretofore been mat
tors of controversy between the United
States and some Of the European Pow
ers, aud the irritation consequent upon
the failure to settle this question in
creased during the war 10 which Prussia

The tables Of statistics prepared by one of
the most accurate statisticians, and cited by
the Mercantile Journal, show that between
the years 1871 and 1914, the number of
Frenchmen who were torn from their families
and lost to the productive pursuits of the
country, reached the enormous sum of four
million five hundred and ffty-six thousand.
Opposed to this estimate is the money sacri-
fee of Great Britain, which, from 1868 to
1916 is put down at about go ,405, Sal 900

London, Sept. 30, 1s6e.--In consequence
ofa difficulty which has existed for some time
past between the United States Consul 10 the
island Of Cyprus and tho Turkish authori-
ties, the United States Minister in Constanti-
nople, Mr. e. Joy Morris. has demanded full
satisfaction from the Sultan and his Cabi-
net.
Pending the negotiations, which assume
rather serious aspect, Mr.. Morris cornmuni.
Gated with Admiral Goldsborough; and the
United States war ship Teonderoga, Captain
Charles Steedman, which has been lying of
the port of Venice, was despatched thence fer
Cyprus.
Cause of the Quarrel.
The following detailed account of the diff
Guilty between the representatives of the
United States in the Island of Cyprus and at
Constantinople and the Sublime Porte--re-
ferred to in our special cable telegram--wll
be found Of considerable interest, as matters
of great import may be evolved from the step
just now taken by the Hon. Mr.. Morris -
Some time ago the American Consul at
Larnaca, in Cyprns, Mr.. Luigi Palma de
Cesnola, look into his service as cavas Mus
sulmau native named Mustapha. shortly
afterwards the mudir of the town claimed
the man as a drawn conscript seeking to
evade military service, and on the Consul
refusing to give him up, ordered party Of
zaptiehs to enter house of the American Con-
sular dragoman-a certain Costand Bebess--
and carry off the man.
Thereupon the American Consul addressed
a formal complaint to the Governor of the is
land, demanding the punishment of the mudir
and an ample apology for the alleged outrage
on his own Consular dignity. On inquiry
into the facts however, the Pasha considered
the mudir to be in the right and therefore
refused the Consular demand
Mr.. Palma de Cesnsla accordingly "suspen-
ded relations" end referred the matter to the
Hon. E. Joy Morris, the American Minister
in Constantinople. The latter gentleman,
accepting his subordinate's version Of the facts
addressed an energetic and categorical note
to the Porte. demanding
Firs--The dismissal of the mudir.
Second. A personal apology from the Pas
ha to the Consul at the house of the latter,
with a simultaneous salute Of twenty-one
guns to the American flag.
Thrd-That done, the dismissal of the
Pasha himself.
Fourth--The liberation and payment of
substantial compensation to the cavas, Mus
tapha.
In the event OF the Pores unwllingness to
concede these four points, Mr.. Morris reaues-
ted Admiral Goldsborough, commanding the
American squadron in the Mediterranean, to
send one Of his war vessels to Larnaca, which

DECLINE OF MARRIAGES. - The New
York Express, in the course OF q recent
article, declares that the number OF mar
riages consummated the present season in
that city and section are far below the
usual quantity. The reason why this IS
the case the Express refers to several
causes, one Of which is that the fact is a
SYMPTOM Of certain periods Of civilization,
by no means novel in the history OF the
world-a similar state Of things being re-
corded in Rome under Augustus, that m
peror finding it necessary to place penal
ties upon the enjoyment Of celibacy, one
| of which prevented unmarried persons
from inheriting their parents property.
The passion for dress and intense love for
| display furnish other reasons, the Express
thinks, for the falling off in the matrimo-
NAL business; prostitution and concu-
binage follow as q natural result from the
mania for show and glitter, and the quiet
attractions of home and the family Preside
being too often sacrificed for the coarser
destinations, a~llurements, and sensual
! pleasurers to be found in the precincts OF
the green room and casino. This Is q Ia
mentable showing, truly, for the boosted
christianity and civilization OF our day,
and the Express may well ask with alarm
What shall we do about it, The only
recommendation made by it is that a little
more mo,herly-like plainness, economy,
and show of usefulness might be efficient
in weaving men from the false and danger.
Gus worship they are too often engrossed
with.
