over every sea, east, west, and north front the emphasis
called London, to carry the fortnight's instalment it
British history and British thought into every land
where the English language L. spoken. But the saddest
news they carry —sadder news than they have carried
for many • month —is tbe aanonneement of the death
of Wilhein Thackeray. It will some first to New
Verb, where they loved him as we did. And the
flanenrs of the Broadway, and even the bogy MIS In
Wall-street, will stay their politics, and remember him.
They will 5.y, "Pour Mackerey is dead." Then&
they may refuse to hear the truth—though they thews
to insult us beyond endurance at Mined times—let leg
keep one thing in mind : the flags at New York wee
Ming hall-mast high when Havelock died. Lee es me
member that. And so the news will travel southward.
Some lean, lithe, deer-eyed quadroon lad will
run swiftly, pause to listen, and then hold Mead; t
ward mem the demiste war-wasted specie, between the
Federal lines and the sniouldering watching of the
Confederate., carrying the news brought by the
mail from Etirope, and will emote up to • knot of calm,

such men Amid be wasted in such • quarrel, tee the

run his eye over the telegrams and will may to tr.
others, "Poor Thackeray is dead." And the news win
go from picket to picket, along the limestone =
which bang above the once happy valleys of Vi
and will pa. south, until Jefferson Davie—the man is
like Stratford de Radcliffe—the man of the pene-
trating eyes and of the this close set lips--the
man with the weight of an empire on his dodders
—will look up from his papers and say. with heart-
felt sorrow, "The *Oboe of 'The irginia/fie 21

will be wondering how it fares with Crawley. This

• few minutes they will be saying, "Lawrence is

whaleboat, and bards the mail steamer, as ate listres
off the heads which form the entrance gates to our sew
Southern Empire, will ask the news of the eeptaie ;
mil he will be told, "Lord Elgin and Mr. Tbackerty are
dead." Th-t evening they will know it in Melbourne,
and it will be announced at all the theatres ; the
people, dawdling in the hot streets half the night
through, waiting for the breaking up of the weather,
will tell it to one another, and talk of him. The
sentence which we have repeated so often that it bell
lost half Its meaning, will have meaning to them
"William Thackeray i. dead !" So the news will I,
