The event of the week,' ecclsilautical and political, has been the election of the Black Pops, as the General of the Jesults in familiarly called, and the occasion may be utilized to remind us of what may be set down to the credit of a society not too favourably regarded by the non-Catholic world—namely, its services to the sciences in general and in the healing art in particolar.

What visitor to the Vatican has failed to be struck, in the Gallery of the Geographical Maps, with the sagacity of the missionaries who frained them the watershed of subequatoris!

Even in the modern day the Jesuit remains true to his scientific traditions-witness those worthy descendants of the Pere Foscovich, the Padre Secchi, famed for his "Solar Physics, and his successor in the directorate of the Vatican Observatory, the Padre Denza. The latter, indeed, besides his work in seismology perpetuated on identical lines by members of the society throughout Italy, will always be re- membered for his demonstration of the origia of that scourge of the Mediterranean seaboard the wind known as the "siracco." Having sur mised that the said wind was always coincident with a sand storm in the Sahara, he stationed a correspondent at the borderland between the, Tell, as cultivated Algeria is called, and the great desert will instructions to telegraph to him on the Italian littoral whenever a sand storm was brewing. On came the wind, the Padre Denta being duly prepared for tw advent, at various points of the Italian shore, with huge facades of cardboard wet with gum. And sure enou„b, as it passed over sea inland a thick layer of sand was deposited on the said facades, thus explaining, what had been observed, but not traced to its cause by Celsus, namely, the sense of beat, of weight, of general. depression and lowered vitality experienced during the prevalence of the sirocco-an tx Notices of Births, Deaths, and Marriagestion and crop cuture, the Sebara ceases to be

Inspired by the traditional genius of the society, the Padre Massain in his thrilling record of mission work forty years ago in the Galla country (West of Abyssina), ascribes to his nature study and his command of the healing art the success of the enterprise which brought him the gratitude of the Pope and the title of Cardinal. Setting out as a simple monk about the middle of the last century long before the opening up of Egypt to civilization and the present facilities br travel, be reached the scene of his labours w.th only the Bible and the crozier of St. Francis. First he began to make friends with the savage Batives by teaching them the s of peace and of civilized life-down to tene. ment structure, cooking and clothing. All this time he was quietly mastering their language till he constructed its gra par for them,.and. finally translated into it portinas of Holy Writ Then he set up a printing pres (thanks to sub- sidies from the Propaganda) and taught the younger of the natives to read. Still his pro- gress-well nigh single handed-was slow, till the periodical outbreaks of smallpox gave him his opportunity. He vaccinated as many of the natives as he could prevail upon to sub- mit to the operation, and when the tribe at the next epidemic of the disease found his patients immune while those who had held back from becoming,so either died or emerged from it disfigured, their liking for him deepened inio love and a superstitious belief in his power, The success of hir mission was then assured,
But it was in the degree in 'which they th enforced religion with science, above all with the healing art in its widest sense; clinical and hygienic, that the Jesuit apostles effected their most salutery work-a work which made them the pre-enitors, so to speak, of Living- stone and Bishop Pattison,
