Bishop Welldon has made a laborious aftempt to ascertain “the sum total of the contribution, whether intellectus), or ethi- |cal, or spirituel, which the clergy of Great Britain have, since the reformation, made in the persons of their children to the treasury of the national life." He hif taken the 68 volumes of the "Dictionary of National Biography," and confining himself to that period, during which the Protestand olergy have been allowed to marry, his drawn up a list of the sons and daughters of clergymen or ministers of religion who have distinguished themselves in the various de

In law wa find Lord Chancellors Talbot, Campbell, Oranworth, Selborne, and Herschell. Itis significant that none of our great sciontião men were "sons of the manse." Bishop Welldon can find only Roger Cotos, a mathe. matician of great promise, who died young, Adam Sedgwick, the geologist, and Ro manes, the lologist. Except about a dozen names of the first, or nearly the first; rankin their several departments; the list is respec- table rather than brilliant. Bishop Welldon 'claims that the clerical profession has con- tributed more of its sous and daughters to swell the strength of the national life thin the law or medicine. As far as numbers go this seems to be the case. But quality has to be taken into account as well as quantity, and on this point the bishop's statistica throw no Tight. It must also be borne in mind that the church is by far the oldest of all the professions, and in numerical atrength long surpassed the others. Until comparatively recent times, too, it enjoyed far more consideration, as for many on- turies in was the only learned or literato class in Europe.

THRILLING TRIP IN A CASCO.
Blown Across the China Šea,
A thrilling tale of the sea is told' by Eulogio de los Santos, one of the ten casco hands that manned casco number 2106, on her hurricane driven passage across the --China sea to Saigon,
The crew of the casco have now returned to Manila leaving on the day following the receipt of the news from Saigon that all were safe,
:
The casco, which is the property of -General Miguel Malvar, of insurrectionary fame, was beating her path over Manila Bay towards Marivoles, on March 18, when a storm broke, and turning her ruthlessly in the trough of its wash; and baffling the best efforts of the men with the poles and paddles to give the craft way on a safe luff handwards, and sweeping abaft her poop, the waves drove her dead through the channel and out to sea, whilst the tem pestuous winds tore all the loose truck over thenipa housing and swept all loose bamper overboard.
She was laden with rica and wood, which fortunately provided sufficient ballast to keep her from turning turtle, through tho stress of wave and wind, and after seeing that their efforts to navigate the craft were fruitless, the patron and his hands aban- doned all work against the elements and threw themselves down below, lashing themselves to the vessel to escape being washed overboard, and abandoned them. selves to providence and fate. They spent 36 Hours of nameless anguish offering prayers to the Almighty to save them from a watery grave and thinking of their loved onea at the town of Bitin, on the. chores of Laguna de Bay,
Then the storm conhed as abruptly as it had begun and the men went up above to find themselves alone at sea no land in sight. The patron dealt out the portions of rice and scarce hoping to ever see terra firma again, the mon took to the paddles, rigged up a sort of mast and lot providence, in default of compass, direct the craft. 13 days were passed in this way and then the chow gave out. There was still no sign of land and the men abandoned hope and Isid themselves down to die.
For four days they drifted at the mercy of the current until one morning they were washed up near Saigon. A steamer leaving that port for Bankok furnished the half famished crew with the first nourishment they had partaken of for many days and the men 'ate ravonously. They were after- wards taken care of by the French anthori- ties at Saigon, and returned to Manila on the steamer Magallanes.'
The men left for their homes in Laguna province yesterday.
J
The alarm sent out by the customs authorities on the day following the dinsp pearance of the casco has been cancelled. Cablenetes.

SPORTING.
The Olympic Games,
}
Home papers now arriving devote con- alderable space to the Olympic Games which commenced at Athens last month, It is ten years since these International sports took place, and prior to the here was an interval of fifteen hundred years. The revival of this ancient gathering has produced the greatest interest and enthu
aem, even royalty, in the persons of Their Majesties the King and Queen of England, being present at the opening ceremony. where 900 athletes marched in sclemn
procession round the horseshoe-shaped track. As far as we can gloan from
the cabled results which have been sent out, the Americans, as at the previous Deeting, have carried away the majority of the prizes, being credited with winning eleven events, against Britain's four and the Greck's three..
Great Britain opened well by winning the fencing competition, the team including Lord Desborough, Mr Newton' Robinson and Mr Seligman. Then the mile swimming race fell to Taylor, an Englishman, who apparently comes under the category of a dark horso," for in the notes published prior to the sporta name does not appear, while that of T 11. Derbyshire and T. A. Jarvis (England's best swimmers) figure conspicuously. allowing on Great Britain, through her Chadian representative, Herring, won the blue ribbon of the meeting-the Marathon Rico Swanberg, whose nationality we are unable to give, was second; and W. Frank, member of the Irish American Athletic Club and one of America's representatives, was third.
The Marathon race is the most import- ant event of the meeting and is the race that is desrest to the Greeks; the event which they were especially keen on winning this year, as they have in the previous contests.
From Marathon to Athens is about twenty seven miles, and the race is run along the public road. The competitora start from the tomb of the ancient Greeks who fell against the Per siang in the Battle of Marathon, and finish at the entrance to the Stadium at Athens. Their course lies through the fur plain of Attica, over the fairly regular road, and the nature of the race demands a natural hardihood rather than the comparatively form" produced by training. Brl fci+1 This is where the Greek mountaineer has the advantage. In the last contest, of the total competitors who started from Mara- then only five finished. These five were all Greeks, and the winner did the distance

Raguenean, French Cham pion; and Zalacostas, the Greek Champion. How even the best of judges may err is illustrated by the result of the race; none
of those mentioned obtaining even a place. Another event to fall to England's lot was the pigeon shooting, which was won by Mr Merlin, a gentlemen, like Taylor, not mentioned in the "betting."
