Mortality Among Admirals.

admiral GOldSbOrOugh, who died at
Washington Feb. l9sh, was the sixth
of the Rear Admirals Of the U s.
Navy who have passed away since the
beginning Of 1877. So far as We have
observed they were men Of excellent
mortal character, as we'll as eminent in
their profession. All save one were
over seventy years Of age, aud only one
was at the time Of his death in active
service. Rear Admira! Joseph Smith
was retired in 1861, but he saw active
service in the war of 1912, having a
share in the victory Of Commodore Nc.
Douough on Lake Champlain. Two
Of his sons served in the navy during
the war, one Of them being killed and
the other having died since. One Of
|. he most familiar names in the list is
that Of Charles Wilkes. lie com.
mauded the famous exploring expedi.
ton to the South Pacific in 1885
1912, and was the author of several
valuable scientific works. The ex-
plot which makes his name best known
is that Of the capture Of Mason aud
Slidell from the English steamer
Trent. He performed valuable service
in cruising about the West Indies dur.
ing the war aud capturing blockade
runners. Admiral James Alden was
the youngest Of these recent died, but
he was sixty six years old. He was q
captain during the war, and promi.
nent, in the operations in the Lower
Mississippi and the gulf, taking part
in the passage Of the batteries at
Vicksburg aud the engagement at
Port Hudson, and in the latter actions
in Mobile Bay and at Fort Fisher.
Rear. Admiral Theodorus Bailey was
the second in command at the capture
Of New Orleans in 1862, and led in
the attack, receiving the special com.
mendation Of Commodore Farragut.
He afterwards did good service in
breaking up blockade running on the
coast of Florida. Admiral Davis was
in active service in the Cult and the
Lower Mississippi during the war, but
his highest claim to distinction is de-
rived from his work on the coast sur
vey, and in making explorations, and
from his contributions to the science
aud literature Of his profession. Louis
NJ. Goldsborough, who died last, was
born in Washington, February 18
1905. His father was :at one time
Governor of Maryland, and the fa-
NOUS lawyer and statesman, William
Writ, was his father-in law. While
on cruise in the Mediterranean 10
1897, as . Lieutenant, he with his
men captured a psivate vessel after
killing ninety Of the crew. He after
wards established colony Of Germans
in Florida. During the Mexican war
he was second in command on the
s Ohio" and was at the bombardmen.
Of Vera Cruz. Daring the war he re-
.ived the thanks Of Congress for the
capture Of Roanoke Island, and dis
persed the Confederate feet under
Commodore Lynch in the North Caro-
lima waters.

American Ploughs In Russia.

that what was lei. to him was land oi
the worst nature, covered With shrubs
and very uneven. Knowing what
American ploughs are, however, he
went to work at once and showed the
English aud Russians what they had
never seen before. With these he cul

greatest ease, very much to the sur
