OPIUM DENS IN LONDON:
The oplem dens have been closed to Shang- hai, and a movamant is om fg01 to prohibit "the Fuse of the pernicious drug on board, steamore, frequented by Chinese. It would not be a bad idea if England-who sends so' many devoted men and women as missionaries to China; and is really glad, that this cuma- of the Chinese race is to be stamped out-were to suppress the oplum dens in her own land. We have them here in London, dear the docks, places with as ovil records as any in China: The terror and hostility with which the ap pearance of a stranger is halted suggests that these dens are run in defiance of the law. I that be so, it is passing strange that the police do not take action. For these are institutions of old standing. Chinese sailors come into the docks and find their way to these bells, gamble away their wages in a night, then go to a poisonous little, room 'aleft, and, with pipe and opium, smoke away the memory of their losses;

John Street, Bedford Row, WC. employ the same unsupported means for the solution of the riddle of the universe. Every school of philosophy was agreed that some object which they could see was a fixed centre of the universe, and the battle was fought as to what that centre was. The absence of facts,
their antira igeuraece of methods of exact, measurement, did not daunt them, and the question furnished them a subject of dispute and fruitless, occupation, for twenty-five cen turies,
But astronomers now recognize that Brad ley's meridian observations at Greenwich, made only so years ago, have contributed more to the advancement of sidereal astronomy than all the speculations, o preceding centuries They have learned the lessen that human knowledge in the slowly developing phenomena of sidereal astronomy must be content to pro- gress by the accumulating labours of successive generations of men; that progress will be measured for geuerungi. yet to come more by <the amount of honest, welldirected and system. atically discussed observation than by the most brilliant speculation; and that, in observation, concentrated systematic effort on a special thoughtfully selected problem will be of more avail than the, most brilliant bui disconnected work.
