The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1881-04-19

Benjamin Disraeli, Lord Beaconsf1eld,
is dead. His illness was long and severe,
but to the last moment, hope was enter
tanned of his recovery. Beaconsfield was,
in some respects, the most remarkable man
of his age and country; although Jew he
became the leader of the aristocratic party
of England, and as Premier, his course
was one of attempted brilliancy and seek
ing after notoriety. His ambition
seemed to be to leave behind him
a name that would be remembered for
foolish acts if not for wise ones. He was
a novel writer as well as statesman, and
the last work of his, Endymion, which APP
peared, but just before his death, can only
be regarded as furnishing an apology for,
if not an argument in favor of, his course
while Prime Minister.
