RESCUED FROM DEATH

The following statement of WilliamJ Cough.

We beg to ask for it the attention of our read
crs. lie says: "1n the fall of 1876 was taken
with a violent bleeding of the lungs followed
by severe cough. l soon began to lose my
appetite and flesh. l was so weak at one time
that could not leave my bed. In the summer
of 1877 l was admitted TO the City Hospital.
While there the doctors said 1 hal hole in

(From the SPECTATOR

The stock of genius in England
has been again reduced. Lord
Beaconsfeld died at his house in
Curzon Street, at 4.30 on the morn
ing Of Tuesday, the 10Th April. His
illness had always been more serious
than his physicians admitted, there
being a visible want of recuperative
power in the system, but for the three
or four days preceding Monday the
soft spring weather benefited him so
much, that even the doctors had hope.
On. Sunday, however, the bitter east
wind was again raging, the thermome-
ter. fell to 400, and in the evening of
Monday Lord Beaconsfield sank into
q state Of partial coma, or heavy
sleep, from which he never wholly
revived. Just before he died, how

as in success. His conduct on the
failure ofhis first Budget-in itself d
ridiculous afair-on his tremendous
defeat in 1891 defeat which he
must have felt as an architect would
feel an earthquake which threw down
his unfinished cathedral-and during
his final illness, inspires us with more
genuine admiration than his showiest
achievements. He was a great man,
though not a great statesman, and his
death closes an episode in English
history on which historians who like
to depict marked Municipalities will
hereafter love to dwell.

lie feeling in favour Of a uniform
educational rate. On the the latter
question the Cleaner here comments :
If we look at the statistics publish
ed as to the education of the people
in this Island, it is very clear tibet
there is vast room for Improvement.
According to the Census returns of
1871, out Of a population of 100000,
the number of those who could read
and write was 1908 Of those who
could read only 81,398 of those at
tending adult school, 3,143 and Of
those attending day school, 1850.
The last figures which represent, Of
course, the children at that time
being educated, bore nc comparison
with the number of children under
10 years of age, returned at more
than 10000. The same disparity
has continued with slight diminu-
ton until now, in spite Of an annual
expenditure by government on edu-
cation OF G25. 900. The Bishop is
ir favour of closing the gap by a
system of compulsory education,
but his direct proposal, in the cir
cular, is to relieve the parents OF
all school fees and make up the de-
fciency out of an Education rate,
to be distributed in the same way as
the Capitation Grants. We think
this plan is likely to meet with gen
eral satisfaction, and when it has
been tested, compulsory education
will have a fair chance Of adoption,
children being allowed no longer to
suffer the evils which ignorance q
inhict upon them. AS the Bishop
points out, the frequent absences
from school, on account Of the lack
of money to pay the fees, would be
entirely deprived of excuse, and
many children whose education has
been neglected would be sent to
school. Irregularity in attendance,
and early withdrawal from school,
often renderabsolutely useless the edu-
cation now given, SO that the money
of the government and the fees of
the parents are wasted and any
system removing both evils deserves
cordial support"
The Penny Bank movement was
going on very successfully, the num-
Der of tho banks opened and the
amount of deposits being constantly
on the increase. The following is
told in connexion with Savings
Banks.
IA deposi,or in the Government
Savings Bank of one shilling, went
to the St. AIMS Bay Branch and
wished to withdraw 95. He was
reasoned with, and told that he had
sadly misconstrued the placards issu.
ed lately, melting to thrift; but all
was of no avail, and he maintains
that he has been deceived. lie
thinks the present a very bad system

ever, he "raised himself from the pill
lows, threw back his arms, expanded
his chest, and his lips were seer to
move, as if he were about to speak,"
the whole action producing in those
who watched him a conviction that
he thought himself again in theCom-
mons, rising to some great effort OF
debate. Then he sank down, the diff
cult breathing ceased, he drew a few
regular inspirations, and so, as calmly
as ifin sleep, he died. He had through
out little hope Of recovery, but he
feared death as little as any other
opponent; his mordant humour broke
out at intervals, and though usually
silent, he sometimes conversed with
all his old clearness and incisiveness
upon public affairs. He was "a child
less man, almost a kinless one, but
his oldest friends were about his bed,
side; the man he liked best, Lord
Rowton, was with him to the last
and what he would have preferred
to all things, Europe was listening for
tidings from his room. His death,
like his life, was far from an unhappy
one.

Is DcleVed, content themselves with
ostraclsing M. Coumoundouros, a
matter OF no Importance. AS, how
ever, the Greeks have yielded, a GER
tain danger arises at Constantinople
The Turks never keep promises, un-
less under the pressure of force, and
they now begin TO think that they
need not surrender Thessaly, as the
Powers are too disunited to coerce
them. In the event Of any hesitation,
the Greeks viii enter the coded dis
tricts, and war may still commence,
unless the Powers, wearied out with
all this bad-faith, order the European
Fleet to advance. The new Turkish
pretext for delay is that Greece has
not settled the proportion of the
Turkish Debt to be borne by Thessa-
ly, which, considering that the Turks
have repudiated their Debt, and
would not pay sixpence of it under
any conceivable circumstances, is like
Brown declining to obey a judgment
until Smith had accurately defined
the infinitely little. There will, of
course, be weeks of negotiations, the
Turks hoping always that some new
question will divide the Powers.
The British flag was hauled down
at Candahar on the 21st INST, and the
troops evacuated the city, which was
taken over by Sirdar Hashim Khan,
in the name of the Ameer, Abdurrah-
man. II was believed that with the
evacuation, this ill-advised, costly,
and useless expedition would end, but
rumour is circulating in India that
the Government intend to keep a
number of posts between Quetta and
Candaher, and especially the Khojak
Pass. Lord Ripon, it is said, has
forwarded reasons for this COM
promise" which will convince the
Cabinet. We do not believe it. Lord
Harrington stands pledged to the
lips to retire from A~tghanistan Alto
gether, and must at last send the
peremptory Instructions he ought to
have despatched at first. The reten-
ton OF any post beyond Quetta-
which is in Beloochistan-will seem
to the Afghans full proof that we in
tend to interfere again in their at.
fairs, and will tempt them to form
alliances against us. Afghanistan
ought to be treated as the moon is,
carefully and infinitely observed from
a distance 10y competent persons,
but with a full recognition that What
ever occurs there, interference is ut
terly beyond even the scope of Rus
sian imagination. il Russia likes to-
waste troops and treasure on making
enemies of the Afshans, as we have
done, let her.

to all things, Europe was listening for
tidings from his room. His death,
like his life, was far from an unhappy
one.
1t was at first believed that Lord
B~eaconsfeld would have been buried
with a State funeral in Westminster
Abbey. His career had earned that
browning honour at the hands Of Eng-
lishmen and it was not believed that
he who, most of all things, perhaps,
loved stately pomp and ordered
pageantry, would have declined the
ceremonial tribute. Immediately on
receipt Of the news, Nj. Gladstone
autographed an offer OF a public fune-
raj, and be followed it with a feeling
letter, in which he spoke of his "sad
surprise, and the "mournful interest
that would befeltthroughout the coun-
try and beyond its limits" and repeated
the offer ofhis telegram. The execu-
tors, however, Sir Philip Rose and Sir
Nathaniel Rothschild, while express
ing "their deep sense of Mr.. Glad
stones generous motives" declined
the honour, Lord B~eeconsfcld having
in his will expressed a wish to be
buried at ilughenden, in the same
vault as NY dear wife, Mary Anne
Disraeli, created, in her own right,
Viscountess Beaconsfeld." 1t was
supposed that the Queen would over
ride this decision, as was done in the
case of Lord Palmelston, and Lord
Rowton was summoned to her Males
ty; but on Thursday afternoon it was
announced that the Earl's body
would be conveyed by road to Hug
henden, and on Tuesday buried in the
parish church.
The entire Press, not only in this
country, but throughout the civiIised
world, has been full of comments
upon Lord Beaconsfeld's career, and
the general Judgment is unusually
accurate. That his life was a
romance, and himself a great roman
Ger, rather than a great statesman,
is almost universally allowed but
there is deep>admiration for his gifts,
and in some quarters an evident
belief that, had he not been fettered
by inferior men, his policy would
have achieved a success as marvel
lous as he himself did. We cannot
admit that, holding that he had o n
OF the administrative or org anising
faculty which alone could have given
him the means of realising his
dreams. He never gave strength to
a Department, and had no idea of
toilsome preparation. But he was a
gifted dreamer, favoured sometimes
with a strange flash of insight; and
he possessed in perfection a quality
which is decaying among men,-a
courage, rising often to audacity,
yet as cool and as complete in reverse
