Japan is more and more surprising the
world Since the days of the Roman En-
peror Constantine no such revolution has
taken place like that which is now in progress
in Japan. 1t is only few years since Japan
was practically closed to the rest of the world.
But how in these few years she has leaped
forward Railroads, canals, steamboats, tele-
graphs, with radical change in the form of
government, indicate the Japan of to-day.
Our latest news is to the effect that Christian
ity, by an imperial edict, has been promul-
gated throughout the Empire. The ancient
and absurd restrictions which excluded for
eigners from the country have been abolished,
and Japan is now open to the enterprise of
the world. We have special reason to be
proud of Japan. She is the hopeful and
promising pupil of the young Republic of the
West. In the future of Asia it is quite mani
fest that Japan is to be a great Power. Rus
STA is doing her best in the North, Great Brit
ain is doing much in the South; but Japan,
yielding to the influences of modern civiliza-
ton, yet retaining her autonomy, gives fair
promise Of setting grand example to the
other nations of Asia. ''Nations," say the
Holy Scriptures, ''shall be born in day. B."
Japan. like Rome of old, keeps alive the hope
that 'the kingdoms of this world will yet be.
come the kingdoms of our God"

Father Hyacinthe in Geneva.

Father Hyacinthe, in obedience to the call
of certain disaffected Catholics in Geneva, has
gone to preach his new Gospel in that city,
According to our latest news the preaching of
the ex-prest is being attended with great sue
cess. The old power which in days gone by
was so effectively revealed in Notre Dame still
remains; and Geneva seems to have come to
the conclusion that it has found second and
greater Calvin. This is the age of free
thought and free speech, and Father Hyacinthe
has as good right as any other man to take
his ground and give utterance to his thoughts
wherever he finds an audience It is not our
opinion, however, that Hyacinthe is the man
to make another Reformation. He is wanting
in clearness Of vision and decision of char
acter. He has gone SO far that duty ought to
have compelled him to go further. He has
broken with the Roman Catholic Church quite
as effectually as ever Luther did, but he is
wanting in that moral courage which enabled
Luther to take position which commanded
the respect as well as the conscience Of one
half the world. Hyacinthe is no longer a
Catholic, and he is not yet Protestant, in the
religious sense Of the word. 1t remains to be
seen whether the eloquent father will be able
to build up new Sect whether he will vault
over openly into the ranks of Professionalism or
whether he will fall back and penitently take
his humble place in the Church of his fathers
For the present his position is abnormal, and
the ground he has taken is so equivocal that
we cannot say we have any great hopes of his
final success, at least in his present line. It is
new experiment, however, and we can afford
TO await results.

Iony an EgregiOus Mistake
Legislative Divorces.


The Legislature of Pennsylvania, in ad-
dition to it's many onerous duties as the guar
dian of private interests at the expense Of the
public good, frequently exercises it's authority
in such matters even as the separation of hus-
band and wife,. Among the private bills Of
the present session of that Immaculate body
is one which has passed into q law granting
divorce to man whose wife left him on the
night of their marriage saying she found that
she had committed an egregious mistake in
wedding him. No hint as to the cause of the
desertion was given in the petition of the ag-
grieved husband, and yet the Legislature took
up and passed the bill almost without inquiry.
This bill is only one of seven of like nature
passed by that body during the Winter. A
few years ago the famous Fry-Griggs case, in
which the parties were among the wealthiest
citizens of Philadelphia, consumed the greater
part of the session, and the scandal
of the differences of the young husband and
wife was scattered all over the country.
These things on the part Of Legislature are
inexcusable. 1t is bad enough if the marriage
and divorce laws, as in Indiana and Illinois,
fail to preserve the family relation; but for a
Legislature to resolve itself into petty
Divorce Court is simply atrocious. In Penn
| sylvania no excuse can be found for conduct
SO undignifed and SO unworthy. The courts of
that State have ample power to grant divorces
for every offence for which a divorce ought to
be granted. In this latest case the courts of
Philadelphia would have granted divorce at
the expiration of two years, and two years
was certainly not too long time for the hus-
band to wait for a formal separation and
authority to marry again. For the Legislature
to step in and anticipate the action of the
courts is crime, tending to degrade legisla-
tive authority and the marriage relation.
Many of the evils which aflict our society
spring from the ease with which marriages are
dissolved. The sacredness of the relation can
lures step in to destroy it on the slightest Of
pretexts. Even the doctrines of ''free love-
are not so pernicious as Legislative and judicial
disregard Of the marriage tie The one affects
only the idiots who preach and practice it;
the other destroys the social and moral purity
of entire communities. It is time that this
trihing ceased. Crime is fearfully on the
increase, and the want of respect for the sa-
credness of marriage has much to do with this
growth Of evil. If matrimonyi is such an eyre
gious mistake in Pennsylvania that the Legis-
latur~fnds it necessary to dissolve seven mar
riages at single session, the Constitutional
Convention which is now in session ought to
prevent the recurrence Of similar scandals by
depriving that body of the power to pass
special divorce bills

to his defence2 II is, besides, question
whether a special commission could test the
| alleged insanity with any more certainty than
it can be done by jury: The probabilities
are that commission would deal more in
telligently with the insanity plea than jury
could, for men skilled in Investigations of this
kind would not be so likely to be confused by
the testimony of so-called experts. If the rule
is adopted the plea of insanity must be first
tried, and when the question has been deter
mined by the Commission it would not be
allowable that it should be raised on the trial
where the judgment was adverse to the plea
There is no doubt that the constitution can be
amended SO AZ to give the Legislature full
power over the jury system by provision like
the following:
The right of having Jury to try issues OF fact in
civil or criminal cases shall remain inviOate, but
the Legislature may provide for the number which
pany OF a jury shall render verdict, and may
regulate the procedure of their selection, and may
provide The mode and manner in which all ques
lions anectng the sanity or insanity OF testatOr
or person indicted for crime may be inquired into
and determined.
This would merely extend the power of the
Legislature and throw upon it all the response
bility for changes in the jury system. But it
would merely be paving the way for the
change from the common law system of trial
by jury to something after the suggestions
in this article. AS regards insanity trials even
the innovation is complete revolution in
criminal practice, and the advantages Of the
change ought to be unmistakable before the
system is determined upon; but it appears SO
feasible and, it is likely, wouldprove so greatly
beneficial in practice, that it ought to be care
fully and thoroughly considered.
Something must be done to secure better
administration of the law. Too many muir
derers escape the halter to render life safe I'M
less conviction follows 1.-The offence. We look
to the Constitutional Commission, to the
Legislature and to the Courts for the remedy

GOVERNOR McENERY AND TAX RESISTANCE
It is hardly possible to imagine worse advice
than that of Governor McEnery of Louisiana.
He wants his friends to resist the collection of
taxes by State officials who recognize his
opponent as Governor. However perfect
McEnery's title to the chief executive chair.
and however slight Kellogg claim, the latter,
in actual exercise of its functions and sup
ported by federal bayonets: has full power to
compel payment of assessments, or, in default,
TO seize and sell property to collect the levy.
Any citizen who may attempt forcible resis-
lance will surely be crushed. 1t will then be
small comfort to him that he suffers in a Just
cause To protest against the irregularity is
right enough and may be safe but only mad
men can think of refusal to obey the law
when it is obvious that the army will be used
to enforce it. There has not yet been a case
OF successful resistance to the power of the
general government from the time of Shay s
rebellion to that of Jefferson Davis q Co.
Louisianians should by no means listen to tie
temptation to ruin themselves by taking Gov
ernor McEnery's angry advice They have
other remedies which may prove effective in
time, but not resistance.

Applied science has recently added to the
great inventions of the day process for ex-
tracing fuel from water. The author of this
process MI, Rqck, an English practical
chemist, has realized the old dream of
scientists that the exhaustless heating power
stored in water may be actually employed for
mechanical and domestic purposes This
brilliant idea, which, it is claimed, enables the
inventor to set the Thames on fire, has been
successfully tested and developed in the large
works on the banks of the river near Batter
sea Park, and the process which it originated
is extremely simple and easily put in practice.
Ordinary steam is brought through pipe
from one of the boilers of an engine, and is
allowed to pass through q red-hot horse
shoe-shaped tube, reposing in fercely burn
ing furnace. While in this tube the steam is
superheated, so that its oxygen and hydrogen
are ready to dissolve their alliance, and after
wards it is forced into retort filed with in
candescent coke and iron fragments. The oxy-
gen is left behind and forms with the iron
scales of black rust, the hydrogen
passes freely through the red re-
tort, and when certain sulphurous vapors
have been disengaged from the residual gas
there comes forth the cheating gas" super
eminently suited for all caloriic purposes,
where heat without light is demanded. 1t
is admirably adapted for oil kinds OF stores
and steam engine boilers. The cost OF the
gas at the works is found to'be only seven
pence for a thousand cubic feet, and this
quantity would boil about fifty GALLONS Of
