Trade in China.

We remarked yesterday that it is not so much to the returna of the Maritimo Customss to her internal revenues that we must look for the real test of China's stability and prosperity. If im- ports, which enormously exoced the exports, were all paid for out Z of the earnings of the country there would be some reason to regard the record Customs returns as a sign of prosperity. Imports may be large, but as the Statisti. cal Secretary pointed out in his review of the trade for 1912, unless it can be shown' they have moved off freely and quickly, trade has probably suffered by the accumulation" of stocks. Then again, when we have regard to the fact that the imports enor mously exceed the exports a ques tion arises as to what extent this excess of imports is due to Europe lending money to "China and paying in goods instead of in cash. No answer to such 'ques- tions can be found in the Cus toms returns. As to China's internal, revenues, the official statements which have been published from time to time on the subject contain no support for the impression that the coun try is enjoying. great increase of prosperity.

China and Religiott.. At present, as is well-known, there is considerable agitation and not a little anxiety ta many quarters throughout China regarding the establishment of a national religion. So far, Con fuoianiem seems to be the system of ethics that is likely to receive official recognition. In view of thir, an address delivered recently.
