ABOUT GREECE.
A war, or even tlio prospect of
one, always bring out a great deal of
information about the countries in
dulging in it. And so it is in the
case of Greece in the present war.
The New York Sun furnishes this
information about the country of the
Hellenes:
Jt has a population of 2,1S7.208.
It is called "Hellas" by its people..
The mean temperature of Greece
is 04 degrees at Fahrenheit.
No part of Greece is forty miles
from the sea or ten from the hills.
About one-half ot fie population
arc agriculturists and shepherds.
It is an area of 2 1,077 square miles.
It is the only country in the world
whose armies are provided with the
Oras guns and paper-covered cart
ridges. The Greek Hag is a white cross on
n blue ground the Bavarian colors
and the Greek cross.
Greece is more thickly populated
than any other country in Europe,
with the exception of Sweden and
Prussia.
It has few rivers and many hills.
None of the former are navigable,
and man' of the latter are fortified.
Its present boundary limits were
determined by an arrangment among
Great Britain, France, Russia and
Turkey concluded at Constantinople
on July 21, 1832.
Only about 70,000 of the inhabi
tants speak any language other than
Greek, and only about 20,000 pro
fess any religion other than the or
thodox. The chief characteristics of the
average Greek are his inquisitive
ness, fondness for excitement, love
of discussion, desire for knowledge,
an aptitude for learning, and aggres
sive patriotism.
The climate has two striking pe
culiarities the heat in summer and
the cold in winter are far more in
tense than those of any other coun
try in the world lying in the same
latitude. Gell once remarked that
in traveling through the 3Iorea in
March he found "summer in Mes
sina, spring in Laconia, and winter
in Arcadia, without having moved
beyond a radius of fifty miles."

our art, and the legendary lore that
lightens and makes perfect our liter
ature. Commencing with Lyourgus

its powers, and under Alexander it
sent the tide of its civilization across
the deserts to mingle with that of the
Indus. The wealth of oriental im
agery, added to the modern language
and literature, was in our opinion
immeasurably more valuable than
the gold or silver or plunder taken
from the followers of Vishnu.
Against the Persian, Greece at Ther
mopylae made that heroic resistance
that saved Europe from subjugation
and taught the world the value of
freedom. Later agaiust the vast
armies of Mahomet HI the Emperor
Constantino did royal battle, and
only sui rendered bare walls and
famished treasuries to his enemies.
Greece fell a prey to the Turk, but
falling she broke his power so that
Charles Martel was able to stop him
and save Europe. Since that lime
her fate has been haul and unde
served. It is in accoidancc with the
eternal fitness of things that Ger
man', France, Austria, and the bal
ance of the countries that would
never have existed but for Greece,
should turn their guns upon her to
support and protect Europe's enemy,
the Turk.
