LITTLE is said to-day about the ravages of the plague in India, but a simple recital of the facts would present an awful picture. An exchange says:—

The deaths in India from bubonic plague were thirty-four thousand for the first week in March. Within a few years the plague in India has numbered nearly three million victims. The British government is doing all in its power to check the ravages of the plague, but it is constantly spreading, and has recently reached Burma. It is said that the deaths are ninety per cent of those infected.
