GENERAL WILSON told the New York
Genealogical society the other night in a
talk ON Manhattan Island. that the terri
tory which the Dutch bought for 90 guild
ers or S2i, had grown since then quite
largely. An accurate measurement shows
that there are now T., 49, acres on the is
land. But ,. i3l have come from filling in
spaces between piers and the gradual build
mg of the shores from the old lines out into
the rivers. 1t was at pretty low rates that
the Indians sold the ground. considering
that the price made il just about One-flfth
Of "A cent an acre. General Wilson thinks
the best excuse given for the close bargain
driven by the Dutch was that offered by the
late Queen Of the Netherlands. She said
that ;he small sum probably couldn't have
bought much rum for the Indians, so that
they were not able 10 keep on as long
spree a. would have been possible If their
real estate had brought larger figures.

Idaho news. (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1887-1891, 1889-12-21
ssPlease Excuse Me-

"Please excuse me" were the last
words of Jefferson Davis. The world
has ever been eager to catch and swift
to treasure up the dying words of its
great men. They are given bright
pages in history. What was before
the fading mental vision of the South's
Chieftain when he uttered his coute-
ous dying words-''Piease excuse me, !"
the world will never know. His ten
der, loving wife was bending over
him and it, washer ear that caught
the words that win be measured in
poesy;and attuned to song. Jefferson
Davis was ssgreat man, a Christian
soldier. The echoes of battle thun-
ders are too near for the voice of i'm
partial history to be heard IN review
ing his'public career or discussing
the public events in which he took so
prominent part. THE News feels
no inclination to revive the memories
of those.events to-day. Out of the
smoke and dust of party passion and
sectional feelings his figure will
emerge into the light of historical
verify some day. But it is no harm
for us to say of him as man, that
his personal integrity was above sus-
picion, that his yeractiy was never
impeached and that his courage was
equal to any test Not merely the
courage that enabled him with fiery
Mississippians at Buena Vista to ar
rest the onset Of, Santa Anna and turn
the fortunes of that bloody fight but
the higher courage that could bear
adversely with fortitude. These quail
titles secured for him the recognition
of his countrymen while he was living
and challenge their respect for him
now that he is dead.
