The progress of the pestilence hist year in the valley of the Lower Euphrates aroused some ala m, and the contagon gome weeks ago hoegan to spread to Mesopotamia, and sumo the beginning of March it has reached Bagdad. The new outbreak shows much of the old and mysterious fierceness before which uieuical science for many centuries recoiled in despair.

Both in Egypt and in European Turkey the conditions in wh’ch the plague breeds and spreads are still prevailing, with little mitigation since the time when Cairo and Constan tinople were almost annually decimated by its attacks. Happily, there is not the least ground fir believing that the essential conditions for its reproduction in Western Europe any longer exist.
