It is to be hoped that, unlike his predecessor's, his tenure of office will be one of contentment and satisfaction. am no admirer of Sir John Pope Hennessy and never was. I think the community-that the foreign community-of Hongkong bad only too much reason to complain of him, but they ought at any rate to have given him fair play, and that he can scarcely be said to have had. To use a sporting term, he was handi- capped from the first. Prior to his arrival' in the colony all sorts of ill reports preceeded him and these operated against him. Through their agency a prejudice was created in the public mind and prejudice will go a long way towards closing one's eyes to the truth. So much I think can be pleaded in defence of your ex-Governor but my opinion of his pro-native proclivities re- mains unaltered. Lord.

A singular moral effect of the wind is noted by air current called the levante. It is so disagree travelers in Spain in connection with a periodical able that when it is prevailing men are considered only partially responsible for their actions and criminals often escape justice by alleging its in- fluence. The wind follow certain simple laws. Some meteorologists declare that there are only two great currents in the atmosphere, which move from the poles towards the equator to fill the vacuum caused by the heating and rising of the air in that region. As they approach the equator, they take the motion of the earth and become the constant trade winds. Immediately north of the equator they blow steadily from the northwest. Immediately south of the equator they blow from the southeast In the temperate zones they blow part of the time from the south- east and part of the time from the northeast. Fur- ther modifications of direction ensue from the ALL formation of continents and the heating of the air in special localities. It is always to be re- membered that an equilibrium must be main- tained; that when the wind blows in one direc tion there must be an upper current returning, or there must be a change of direction which brings the same amount of air back to the place of starting. If in California we have the wind for several months from the north, we can reason- ably expect it will blow from the south thereafter until the balance is restored. The constancy of the reluming upper current is illustrated by singular circumstance, many times observed i Europe, Small particles of dust which fall occa- sionally in France and Spain were thought to have been brought from the desert of Sahara until the microscope showed that they could only come from South America, having been blown for thousands of miles across the ocean.
