Death of an Illustrious Man.

Sir Moses Montifiore died on the 18th ultimo at Ramsgate. In October last he had reached the great age of 100 years. His cen- tennial was celebrated by his CO., religionists and by many others all over the world. Sir Moses MOntifiore was elected Sheriff of London in 1887, and was soon af. terward Knighted by the Queen. He had also served as High Sheriff of Kent, and in 1S46 had the honor of Baronetcy conferred on him for his high character and public services. In the year 1840 he went on 8 mission to the East, for the purpose of mitigating the condition of his Jewish brethren. He was successful in that mission, receiving on his return testimo- nials of regard from his co-reli- gionists, and the thanks of the Court and Common Council for the distinguished services he had rendered. He undertook another mission to Morocco, tosolicit from the Emperor relief for the Jewish and Christian subjects from re- ligiouS disabilities. He was suc- cessful in that mission, as also in a later one to Roumania for a similar purpose. In 1867 he found> ed 8 college for Hebrews at Ramsgate, in memory Ofhis wife. His benevOlence was not confined to Hebrews. He was intent on using his wealth to accomplish the greatest amount of good. His exalted character was illustrated by his benevolence and by the many private and public virtues of his long life. It is not given to many men to round up a cen- tury. But it was given 10 this renowned man to have the utmost limit of years, and to have all these crowned with usefulness and honor.

 Fame shall trumret forth his name To the millions of our nation
 For which he fought and which he saved, And earned place in glory's temple Where his deeds are deep engraved. Sing Ho.annah in the highest
 Notes that escaped from human lips; Grants great name shall live forever,
 Nothing can his name eclipse. Strong in battle, firm as metal,
 See, his sword flash bright and red Mid the din and roar of battle,

Among some autograph letters written
by Garibaldi and presented lately to the

to 'the English admiral commanding the
Hannibal" in the following terms: ''Ad-
mlral: You leave US, and in seeing you
depart sentiment OF gratitude penetrates
the heart OF every creature in this world.
You have not servilely used your terrible
batteries 10 lombard Palermo, neither did
you SEND your soldiers, though much de-
sired, to defend your city in peril. Your
duty as a soldier and the sad laws of pol
icy forbade you. But, good and generous
man, you lavished upon US sympathy and
affection. You Kept your vessel close to
the city, proving that you deplored the
butchery and were ready to receive the
families forced by fire and the sword TO
fly to you. Thanks, Admiral, thanks, for
your magnanimOus act. Thanks. in the
name of Palermo, Sicily, and all Italy.
The departure of the Hannibal is felt like
that of a dear friend May Providence
always protect your noble ship, its dear
crew, and the venerable and generous
soldier who commands her! GARIBALDI.
