The Doom of Crete.

The daily turn of the kaleidoscope in
Crete brings up an ever darker picture.
The depravity of the Turkish govern
ment is incorrigible. The Sultan's most
golden promises are receptions and
frauds. A fortnight ago he promised con.
ciliation in Crete. A Christian was ap
pointed governor general, the former
Mahometan governor was made military
governor, and the frman of 1878 was re-
vived. All this seemed generous and
promised peace to the island. The facts
are that the Christian governor is a
mere 6gure-head, the power remaining
with the military governor. The con-
cessions were evidently an attempt to
secure the disarming of the Greeks; but
the Greek insurgents knew the Turks
too we'll to put themselves in their pow
or. They maintain active operations, and
are pushing the Turkish garrison to the
wall. But suppose the Turk is driven
out of the island, the Greeks are re.
garded as incompetent to govern them.
selves. Though they combine and fight
bravely against the Mahometans. they
lack the sense Of patriotism and would
stand by new government only for
what they could get out of it. The Great
Powers evidently would have to inter-
vene. and this they cannot agree to do.
They will not allow annexation to
Greece. and cannot agree to the settle
ment of its troubles among themselves.
In this state of the case the Turk seems
destined to hold to his prey.-Zion's

Colder Than the North Pole.

Walter Wellman, who has been to
the arctic regions himself says that
Melvile's theory of an eternal ocean
ice cap is as indelensble as the old
notion of an open polar sea. At the
pole the mean annual temperature is
reckonel ut , degrees +. above zero.
In summer il is doubtless often so warm
there that the lucky explorer who
reaches its neighborhood will pull AT
his sledge with bare hands and with
out any coat to incumber him. Dur
ing three months of summer the mer-
curv would not fall below 10 degrees
above zero. He might pass whole
winter there without seeing the mer,
curry drop any lower than it occasion
ally falls in Manitoba and northern
Minnesota. But he would find Il
steadier cold. For three months
probably, he would have no higher
temperature than 90 degrees below.
Arctic climate, like many other
things in that region. is little under
stood hy people who have not given
the subject special study. In that
country it is always cold when the
wind blows, summer or winter. But
even in winter. when the wind is light
or still, well clad man can move
about in comfort.
