That it is a marco of sinoere pleasure ta know that the other patients, from the Bhropshire search-parties, are making rapid progress toward recovery, That this week will be long remembered for its threatened paule among the Chioase, and for what may now be called the spidemio dimensions of the Plague. . That residents of a hopeful disposition oven now speak lightly of the comparatively small, periontage of casos to the maze of the Chinese population. That, alle same, the situation is serious enough, and the damparative help- lessssss of medical science in dealing with the Classse adds to the uncertainty and vague dread of the scourge, That I faney the serious, but fortunately temporary increase in the number of cases must be due to the hasty turning up of the poison in the filthy rookeries without the precaution of disinfecting before and daring the cleansing process. That regrettable experiences must be gone through is such times of emergency, and
a most commendable desire has been shown by the Sanitary and Executive powers that be to accept suggestions from all sides.
That even the initial mistake of giving the Chinese sharge of their sick bas perhaps led, or may lead, to good results, as comparisons are cow boing sunda by the natives with the English
and Chinese management of hospitals-of nursing and medical treatment. That the object lesson supplied by the Ken- nedy Town Hospital, where the lady nurses have been doing very plucky work since the notbreak of the Plague, will do more than anything elas sould to disperus the wretchedly erroneous notions of the Chinose.
That the medical men of the Colony have been working like Trojane, and they have been ably ascisted by Dr Herder and
others.
