quest and relentles was in marked contrast to the urani Spanish methods of dealing with con- quered people, methods of which Cozies and Pisarra are the chief exponanis. Legaspi with six Augustinians and a handful of soldiers accomplisked the wonderful work of conquest. Without greed for gold and without any exhl- bities of cruelty or persecution, these devoted men laboured among the docile people satil they won their confidence, so that the islande were seized with little blood bed and no mas" tacre or depopulation. The name "Islas Filipas" was given by Legaspl to 1587. Con- tests with franiler rebellious tribes, attacks by pirales, earthquakes and typhoons serve to brank up the monotony of an otherwise uneventfal history. Manila was captured by the English under Draper and Cornish in 1967, and ran. somed for $5,000,000 but was cautareð la 1764. The present lasurrections in the islands were pul down with an fron hand and many atrocities were committed, as that is litle wonder that Many of the fahiblants look upon the-arrival of the Americany at a deliverance.
