Need of Advancement of Religion in
the Secular Schools.
Only one session was held by the dele
gates to the triennial Episcopal conven-
ton yesterday. and that one continued
until 1:3O o'clock in the afternoon. In the
House of Deputies the session was one of
unusual interest. the interest bordering
on the addresses made by the different
bishops and clergy in regard to the educa-
tion of the youth of the land. and the re-
lation of the church to the school. The
learned speakers with one accord dis
cussed the lack of proper spiritual educa-
tion in the schools, and pointed out the
method which should be pursued by the
church in this respect. They were of one
opinion concerning the divine commission
of the church to spread its benign infiu-
ence over secular schools, and by so doing
develop good. loyal and earnest Chris
tians.
The future of church schools was dis
cussed freely. and various propositions
touching their welfare advanced Alto

seduent upon its reading was one of the
most pleasing features of the convention

OUR MERCHANT NAVY.

The remarkable concern which is now be-
ing exhibited In th 3 country With reference
TO our foreign trade and the possible means
of expanding II, lenis a new interest TO the
figures just published by the head OF the
navigation bureau OF the treasury depart
ment as TO the amount of tonnage com
prlsed in our American merchant marine
on June 80. 1898. there we're 22,705 docu-
meuted American vessels engaged in our
carrying trade, both domestic and foreign.
There Vas slight decrease in the number
of vessels, but slight Increase IN the gross
tonnage last year as compared with the
preceding year T0sse vessels measured
domestic trade there were 2l567 vessels Of
10000 tons, in round numbers, and 1896
ships only, Of 737 900 toms registered tor
foreign trade.
1t is worthy Of note that the figures rep
resentlng our merchant marine In the for
eign trade are the lowest since 1897 The
history OF no other merchant marine Of a
first class power shows such a humliaaing
comparison as ths And while our total
tonnage in the foreign trade is less than
500 900, that of England is about 49, 900 900
and of Germany about 2,000000! Our total
foreign trade is larger than that OF Ger
