The delegates to the Protestant Episcopal
convention of the Diocese of Maryland as,
sembled in this city yesterday in goOdly num-
bers. Theyare mostly quartered at the Ar
Iington and Ebbitt houses. The session at St.
Johns church, presided over by the assistant
bishop Rt. Rev. DR.. Pinkney, in the alb
sence of the venerable Bishop Whiting
ham on account of feeble health, was of a
most interesting character. A powerful
discourse was delivered by DR.. Leeds, of
Baltimore, showing how peculiar are the
questions now pressing upon the Episcopal
Church, more important and intricate than
any ever yet presented to the Christian
Church-questions. however, which the
Church is fully able to answer with a true
apostolic spirit. All parties in the Church
High, Low and Ritualistic-have contrib
uted to bring about the present state of
affairs in the Church, and each party has
brought solid material upon which the
highest energies of those in authority may
build future for the Episcopal Church in
this country never equaled in the past for
true charity and advancement.

Let US have q Third Assistant Secretary
in the State Department who will advance
the interest of the United States in the only
intelligent lasting way that can be done
with the interesting populations Of Asia
and Polynesia, and that is by endeavoring
to understand the purposes of these nations
and to sssimilate their interests with our
own. He can assist In the extension Of the
moral influence of our civilization, which
always. has been more potent than arms
and threats. He can assist in preventing
the national honor from becoming subjec'

THE UNITED STATES AND FHE
EAST

During the debate the other day in the
House on the legislative appropriation bill,
Mr.. Garfield said, in reference to Mr.. Fish's
recommendation for Third Assistant Sec
retary of State, that the Secretary Of State
had informed the committee that there were
three natural groups of nations to deal with,
each Of which required special and peculiar
qualities to understand and manage their
affairs here at the State Department-one
the English-speaking races. and the second
the Latin races. Two Assistant Secretaries
were needed for them, and that we had
lataly opened relations with class of na.
tions who are not Christian, but nations
like the Chinese and Japanese. The Sec
retary of State, In order to accomplish his
work more satisfactorily, asks for Third
Assistant Secretary for this important
group. l.b r-... ..... ...... z-.-...E -r.
The wisdom Of the recommendation of
this step in our foreign relations is appa-
rent. We have as q nation to deal intelli-
gently and mercifully with the two only re-
naming native civilizations of the East. To

Our enterprise opened Japan, and has &C
quired relations with China. But ss yet
we have no catalogue of expressions like
those which Mr.. Richards attributed to
England In his speech the other day in the
House Of Commons on the West African
possessions. We quote below an extract
from an English paper of his remarks on
that occasion 1a --s

THE Mineral Point Democrat OF
last week takes us to task for an arti-
Gle which appeared in this paper the
week before, taken from the Milwau-
kee Sentinel, criticising the doings of
the "Reform" Legislature. The Demo
eyat asks
What does these pinks Of perfec-
ton 1.-THE Sentinel and us ! think of the
Bouek Insurance Bill which passed
the Reform Assembly almost unani-
mously and was defeated almost unani-
mously in the Republican Senate ?
For the information of the Demo-
crat we will say that we ARE not in
favor of The Bouk insurance bill; particu-
larly because it discrimin ated against the
only, home life insurance company within
the State. But if the bill was "almost
unanimously" defeated in the Senate,
the Republicans having barely one of
asmajority in that body, we would ask
if several of the "Reformers" must
not have had hand in in its defeat,
anyhow.
