The last time he was noticed in this part, which (our correspondent played like a true actor, was suth’s funeral. With his sno beard and flowing white hair, the wooden cross in his right hand andthe left on his sword, he was a conspicuous and dramatie figure. For the last twenty years of his life he slept in his coffin, which with his own hand he had painted in the national colors of Hun- gary. He died in the coffin, and his last wish was that the lid should be merely nailed down over him and that no one should touch his dead body.

Oliver Wendell Holmes was born on August, 29, 1809. William E. Gladstone was born on December 29, 1809. That is a famous year in biograpt Charles Darwin was born on February 12, 1809. Edgar Allan Poe was born February 19. Alfred Tennyson was born in the same year; so was Pierre Joseph Proudhon, the French social philosopher. It isa year famous in the annals of military history, too, for Marshal Canrobert, the surviving French marshal, was born in that year; so was Leopold O'Donnell, the Spanish general; so was Frederick yon Beust, the Austrian statesman, whose power in German affairs was eclipsed at Sadowa. The Italian states- man, Rieasoli, was born in Florence on Mare 1809. Park Benjamin, who died in 1864, was born in the same year. For Americans it will alw rable as the year in whic Lincoln was born. The death of Dr. Holmes has called up a flood of reminiscences on the sub- ject of old men. Titian, the Italian painter, was 100 years old when he died at Cadore, Italy. Donaldo, when past 90, and utterly blind, stormed Constan- tinople. Isaac Newton was president al society at the age of 83, finished his imaginary **Con- versations” at the age of 8°. Brougham was a debater at 80, and Lyndhurst. when over 9). spoke in the house of lords. Franklin was governor of Penn- sylvania at the ageof 82. Marshal Me- Mahon was 85 when he died. Neal Dow is now inhis ®th year. David Dudley Field was 89 when he died. Chevreul, the French chemist, was 102 when he died in 1889. Cassius M. Clay, now living in Kentucky, is 84. Hamil- ton Fish, governor, United States sena- tor and secretary of state, was another of the famous men born in 1809. h Abraham Each Nation for Itself This large uncertainty which is now characterizing all things Russian adds anew element of confusion to the al- | ready complex and doubtful situation in the far east. It is understood here that England has made proposals for a joint action of the powers in the Pa- cific and has been refused by all save taly. Whether this be true or tased only on the general failure of the present foreign office administration to do the things it wants to do is not clear, but the tone of the semi-official papers in Berlin, Vienna. and Paris alike, makes it apparent that nobody intends to risk a scorching for the sake of bringing the British chestnuts out of the fire.
