IN analysis Of this table show,

An analysis Of this table shows that the
efficiency Of the railway mail service has
increased or diminished In precise ratio to
the extent In which the merit system. as
distinguished from the patronage system,
has been applied to 1t. In 1856 the service
was In comparatively good condition, hav
ing been for a number Of years under con-
troll OF one party. and therefore sui. ering
little from needless removals and appoint
ments. BY 1886 the changes incident to the
incoming Of a new party had begun to re-
fiect themselves by a decrease Of nearly
l.3oO In the ratio. AS the changes increase,
we find in 1887 still further decline. Mean
while. a good many of rhe new men had
been broken in and become of some value
to the service. The year 1858. therefore,
witnessed a slight Increase. and 1889 anoth-
er nearly equal to it. BY the time 1880 closed
the effect Of Mr.. Wanamaker's wholesale
assault upon the service for partisan rea-
sons had made itself felt, and the lowest
proportion of all. 2.SA. had baen reached.
Then Mr.. Cleveland's classification order
became operative and Mr.. waaamaker was
compelled to reinstate q large number Of
the old and skilled clerks, through competi-
tive examination. to replace those who were
too utterly inefficient to he longer retained:
hence. In 1891 we find the ratio al one jump
nearly doubling itself, AMI steady progress
through 1892 and 1898 has brought II UP to
7.lA. the highest record Of efficiency ever
made In the service.

Out Of the worlds parliament Of religion
at Chicago has come q brotherhood Of
Christian unity" Launched at an oppor-
tune moment. under circumstances excep-
tionally favorable. with q notable array of
men and women of eminence as its spon-
sors. 1t promises to become q mighty en-
CINE for good in the Christian world. Its
object Is the advancement Of Christian
work. the perpetuation Of that remarkable
spirit Of unity that has characterized the
religious parliament and the creation Of q
bond with which to begin the federation Of
the world upon Christian basis.
For the purpose of uniting with all those
who desire to serve God and their fellow
men under the inspiration Of the life and
teachings of Jesus Christ hereby enroll!

When the announcement Of the forma-
ton of the brotherhood was made In the
parliament yesterday considerable enthu-
siasm was manifested. and Col. Thomas
Wentworth Higginson made q short adj
dress on the subject Of unity. He pleaded
for Christian charity and liberation, and
said that 1t was time to lay aside the idea
that man must belong to some particular
denomination to be regarded as q good
man. The best Of men, he said, had little
to boast OF, and 1t was time to judge men
by their work instead Of by their faith.
