THE GREAT EA STERN'S END.

We have so often been called upon
in past years to announce the last, the
very last of this magnificent but gen
orally useless ship, which has fingered
on through an obscure and profitless
existence since her single voyages to
New York, New Orleans and Mel
bourne proved a commercial failure,
that the stranded hull on the Mersey
shore, ready to be broken up for a
few thousand pounds worth of old
iron, may seem but q "reminiscences of
the fate repeatedly declared to be inn
minent and commonly believed to be
past.
1t is thirty years since she first put
to sea from the Thames and her pass
age down the channel was married
by a shocking disaster - from the
blow-up of her steam apparatus,
which cost ten lives, but the labOri-
Gus efforts to launch this enormous
Leviathan, as she was at first called,
in 1857, from Mr.. ScOtt-Russell's
building yard at Millwall, had been
ominous of ill-success. Men were
killed by the breaking ola gear attach
ed to hydralic engines that slow
ly pushed her broadside on, into the
comparatively narrow river, and Mr..
Brunei, the eminent engineer, dyinga
few days afterward, was thought to
be victim of sore anxiety and Sc
we're disappointment.
One Serviceable and honorable per-
Torrance, the laying of an Atlantic
telegraph cable in 1866, is set down
to the credit of the Great Eastern,
but experience has shown that YES
sells OF moderate size can do such
work just as well. 1t is sad chap
ter in the history of marine architec-
ture, and some people must have lost
at one time and another nearly mil
lion sterling altogether by this inn
mense mistake. The Great Eastern
might, perhaps, have been converted
into a very commodious floa ting ho-
tel, moored in some tranquil bay
she could never have been a good
sea-going ship, or competed in speed,
comfort or safety with the admirable
liners of recent construction. Her
engines, indeed, were manifestly of
insufficient power, and she rolled gre
viously for lack of keel. The dimen-
sions of the big ship were $50 feet
length, SO feet width and 60 feet
depth, capacity, 22,5OO tons burden.

DEATH OF JEFFERSON DA WIS.

Jefferson Davis, the ex-leader of the
Confederacy, died at Beauvoir, Miss,
Friday morning, Dec. 6, surrounded
by friends His end was peaceful.
Jefferson Davis was born in Ken
lucky, June g.. 1903. During his
childhood his father removed into
the state of Mississippi. In 1894 he
entered the United States Military
academy at West Point, where he
graduated four years afterwards
The first part of his military career
lasted seven years, during which
period he served with distinction
against several hostile Indian tribes
Resigning his commission i'll 1885, he
returned to Mississippi, married the
daughter of Gen. Taylor, afterwards
president of the United States, and
became cotton planter, until 1913,
when he interested himselfin politics
as democrat, and took q prominent
part in the election of MIR. Polk. He
was returned to congress in 1915,
and took part in the debates on the
tariff" the Oregon question"
military AFFAIRS and upon the
preparations for the Mexican War"
In 1851 he resigned his seat in the
senate to enter upon canvass for
Mr. Franklin Pierce, who on being
elected president, nominated Mr..
Davis as secretary of war. He intro
duced important reforms into this
department, and the military service
generally. He was again elected as
senator in 1853; but the election of
Mr.. Lincoln in 1860, and the con-
Sequent secession movement, caused
him to withdraw. When the move
ment received shape and form, he
was chosen provisional President of
the Confederate States, Feb. 4, 1861,
inaugurated Feb %, and elected as
President for six years in 1862.
After the fall of Richmond, President
Davis, while endeavoring to make
his escape, was captured at Twins
vile, Ca, May 10, 1865, and re-
manned a prisoner for two years in
Fortress Monroe, awaiting a trial.
He was released on bail in the sum-
mer of 1867, and was included in the
general amnesty of Dec. IS, 1868.
After his release he visited Europe,
and on his return took up his resi-
dence at Memphis, Tenn, where he
became president of a life insurance
company. He has occupied himself
in part in writing History of the
Civil War;" which was published re-
Gently, as well as THE Rise and Fall
of the Confcderacy. The last part
of his life was spent in retirement at

STANLEYS STORY.

The recent letters from Henry NJ
Stanley, which announce his success
in rescuing Emin Pasha and his
speedy arrival upon the coast in Fan
zibar, tell tale of adventure which
no Christmas story will surpass in
romantic and heroic interest. The
safe escape of the two men and of
their large company, after desperate
contests with savage man and ma
ture, and every form of extreme peril,
is news which makes even the holi-
days happier. For the attention of
the civilized world was concentrated
upon the issue of this daring expedi-
ton, and its fortunate conclusion,
with his previous great services and
successes, places Stanley among the
very foremost in the illustrious band
of African explorers. Yet, as he
energies triumphant in the special
object of his expedition, the Dark
Continent closes almost hopelessIy
behind him, and his chief service is
the demonstration of the only way
in which Africa can be civilized.

When a staid and melancholy con-

sources of the Nile have baffied un-
til now research and knowledge.
But the last generation has disclosed
the secret and the general character
of the vast continent. Its people are
now revealed, and the sources OF the
Nile are known The revelations,
however, confirm the general belief
as to the country and people. Llv-
ingston and Stanley continue the
tale which Mungo Park began. Here
is one OF the great continents which,
except at one point upon its north
ern shore, is absolutely barbarous.
There are no roads, no bridges none
of the elements of civilization; no
art nor science no literature; and on
1y the rudest forms of government.
From the beginning the country has
been in contact with civilization,
which has touched its edges here and
there, and in Egypt with a certain
feeling of art and organized society.
But these mere fringeS of higher life
have had no influence upon the vast
mass of the continent. Alexandria
had libraries and schools, but they
were the monuments of foreign
force No spirit of enterprise has
equipped African fleets for voyages
of discovery No knowledge nor de-
sire of knowledge is known among
African races The people have long
enslaved each other, and have fur
nished wretched victims to the greed
of more civilized nations.
1t would be hard to mention any
contribution made by the Dark Con-
tinent to the higher and progressive
life of man. 1t has resisted by the
mere density and mass of barbarism
all reproaches of civilization, all
ameliora ting influence; and although
now it has been widely penetrated
and explored, it remains as dark
problem as ever. Its descendants in
other lands, enlightened by civiliza-
ton, have no desire for the country
of their origin, and by the long OPP
preston of slavery, whether in the
West Indies or in the United States,
it is a race without initiative, and as
yet without achievement. 1t will be
very remarkable if Stanley's later
tale differs from that of all previous
African exploration, so far as con-
Germs the mental condition of the
people. Africa can be subdued to
'civility' only by gradual advances
from the coast, not by solitary camps
planted in the wild and inaccessible

have nearly every chance they could
wish. There are no iron bars except
on two Dormitories. There is six
foot board fence around the play

lowed to go after it. There are about
