cd his torn so distinctly that that the neat
moment he received u shot through the

man in commanO with his spear and
tore open his body. The enemy retired
at the end of half an hour. with large
number killed and wounded. The scene
the next day, as the privateer sailed into
Marblchcad harbor, was thrilling. The
whole populaton-the news of Mug
ford's hcroism having just reached the
town-turned out to welcome him. No
heart heat higher or more gladly than
his wife's She had rescued him from
the enemy once, and now he had captur.
ed the most valuable prize OF the revolu-
ton. No news of the engagement of the
evening before had come TO the people.
The flag at half mast was the only It'd.

moved on receiving the dead body of its
young hero, and gave him public
funeral, the grief Of his loss siencing all
demonstrations of JOY with which they
were prepared to welcome him.
His exploit reminds one OF the capture
of Ticonderoga by Ethan Allen, in the
name of the great. Jehovah and Conti-
mental Congress" the year before. 1t
was, in some respects, the most brilliant
naval duel OF the revolution, and CERTAIN.
ly one of the most servicable. Before
people could make up their minds to re-
gard Great Britain as an enemy, Mugford
on the sea and Allen on the land, COM
panions in daring, and taught the Eng
lish by significant examples the charact-
er of the people they failed To conquer.
Justice has been tardy to the memory Of
Mugtord. Even Marblehead, until recent
ly, had not erected slab over his grave.

in San Francisco will be confined to five
days. He has expressed desire to visit

N. ID. Conveys welcome TO London


London Letter in Yesterdays New York
Tribune.
Mr. Conways resolution to remain in
London has been taken. His people have
manifested their joy in meeting held
on Monday evening to welcome him. 1t
WAS true London night, wet, windy,
muddy and dismal. but the South Place
Chapel, which holds, l should think.
about 500 people, was filled with mem.
bers of both cor gregatiols. The chapel
has no architectural attr, ctions-there is
nothing in its plain white walls
and simple service to appeal, as
the Rituallsts do, so success
fully. TO the senses If a man goes to this
chspel, he must go for some kind of
spiritual satisfaction he gets there and
not elsewhere. On Monday night, how
hver, the platform-there is no pulpit,
only a desk-was graced with flowers
and ladies, and most of the people were
in evening dress. When l came IN,
Mr.. Hickson, leading man among MI.
Conway's people, WAS reading an address
TO Mr.. Conway. 1t sounded much like
other addresses, only more hearty and
simple, and whenever an alius'en
to his return occurred there was
applause. When Mr.. Conway
began his reply, the applause
became overwhelming and continued
long. believe it is the first speech L
ever heard Mr.. Conway make. and l was
astonished at his orator.Cal power. Lee
lures and sermons are q different matter
those | had heard and admired; but
this was real speech, and fluent and
free, BY turns Brilliant pathetic. inspirlt-
ing. and straight to the point from begin
ming to end. He was not talking for the
public; those gathered about him were
friends and comrades. He had to talk u
good deal about himself, and did
it with simplicity and good taste.
He spoke Of Theodore Parker
and his comrades in words which fairly
thrilled us sll-words full Of atiectionate
reverence for an apostle whose courage
was equal to his learning, and his learn
ing TO that OF any tbeologian of his time.
He spoke honorably and gratefully ofthe
Society, whose urgent invitation to him
he had jus, regretfully determined to de-
cline. He spoke lovingly ofhis own State
and country, which be relinquished, prob
ably, forever, BY this decision to devote
himself TO hard work among another
people. 1t was plain what struggle
il has cost him to abandon all that
America has no otter what it costs a
