Which was the NOblemau l-The Marquis of
Westminster, one of the richest of the English
nobility, died in London the same week with Geo.
Peabody. He owned large estates, besides a
large portion of she most fashionable part Of
London, which he had been rebuilding with great
magni6eence But with all his immense wealth
he was the miserable being truly expressed by the
word miSer He was mean and penurious wear
ing his clothes as long as stitches and patches
would hold them together, and doing nothing
with his money except to increase its amount for
the benefit Of his heirs. Mr.. Peabody, instead Of
sel6shly seeking co enhance his property, wisely
gave the bulk of it during his life time for the
welfare and improvement of his fellow-men. On
the eve Of his leaving this country for the last
time he told friend the benevolent intentions he
still had in view, remarkng, that if he should be
spared to return to America, he should come a
poorer man than when he left it in 1887.

which commences its 12Sth volume with the Janu.

politics, and shows equal vgor in its literary de-

g. The Westminster Review
has just closed its 92d volume In point of literary
ability this Review is fast rising to level with its
competitors. 1t is the advocate of political and re-

narrow Journalism of schools and parties it appeals
to wider range of sympathies and higher integ-
