MAGELLAN's GREAT DISCOVERY.
CATHOLIC NAVIGATOR FIRST
SAILED ROUND CAPE HORN.

Fernando Magellan belonged to an
ancient and noble family, and was
born at Oporto, Portugal, about the
year 148O. From boyhood he was
noted for piety, bravery and enter
prise. He spent some years at the
court of his native country, and after
wards served with distinction in the
Portugal army. In 1917 he turned
his steps to Spain MagelIan's mind
was now filed with a mighty enter
prise. A passage around Southern
America, Magellan reasoned, would be
a much shorter highway for commerce
than the usual route by the Cape of
Good Hope.
Besides, If such a passage were dis
covered he could then sail around the
world. This idea, it will be remem-
bered, owed its origin to the genius
OF Columbus; but it remained for an
other great Catholic pioneer to carry
it into execution. Magellan at once
made his plans known to Cardinal
Jimenez and King Charles v, and met
with every encouragement. According
ly fleet of five vessels having been
put at his disposal, the little squadron
set sail from San Lucar on September
10, 1919. The crew numbered two
hundred and fifty men, and included
several priests. After a rough pas
sage of about two months, Magellan
reached what is now the Bay of Rio
Janeiro.
Proceeding along the coast, keeping
a careful watch for every bay and in
let, he entered the River de la Plata
on January 1, 1920, but, after sailing
up the river for some days, he con-
cluded that it was not the strait of
which he was in search, and continued
his course toward the South. He
reached the port of st. Julian on
March 8, where he resolved to winter.
In this uncomfortable station he lost
one of his squadron, and the Span
iards suffered much from the exces-
sive rigor Of the climate The fleet
left the Bay of st. Julian about the
middle of October, and following the
coast very closely, reached the Cape
on the Northeast of the Strait on
October 81. After sailing for twenty
days in this lonely, labyrinthine, but
picturesque strait, to which he gave
his own name, which is three hundred
miles in length, and where one of his
ships deserted him, Magellan beheld
the boundless expanse of the Southern
Ocean.
