one Of the most remarkable features ofthc
present day is the growing interest OF the
European nations in the settlement Of
Africa. Germany, Portugal, England, and
Belgium are now very actively engaged in
the colonization of the dark continent and
there is some prospect that the conflict that
has already taken place between England
and Portugal with reference 10 territory
claimed by both. will hereafter be'repeated
IN the instance Of the other powers in con-
nection with the extension Of their African
domain, for il is unlikely that a spirit Of for

ON the contrary, Africa being the last
field remaining open for colonization

land greediness that has ever been observed,
and in consequence, there viii be constant
danger Of mutual encroachments and mutual
MISUNDERSTANDING. Already there is seen
a strong disposition on the part Of England
aud Germany to work in an undetermined
way, in order TO secure the services Of men
whose long experience and distinguished
reputation guaranteed that the interests Of
the nations represented Boy them would be
pressed most energetically and intclligently

/ Emin Pasha, whom the English also
sought 70 enlist on their side, has fallen

In the death Of Mr.. Randall on SUNDAY,
there passed away man remarkable alike
for intellectual capacity Of q very high or
der. and for a force Of will and a yigor Of
moral character that have rarely been sur

the exalted personal standing Of the dead

and the purity Of his motives than the fact
that he retained the respect and confidence
OF bis Democratic associates. although be-

brought 10 bear upon Mr.. Randall in the be-

to grow in power until its close. and he was
as tenaciously true to these influences as %
the soundest principles Of his party.
His most memorable service not only 90
the Democratic organization, but to his coun-
try.was in the winter OF ls74-7j. when
he led the Democratic members Of the House
in resisting the famous Force bill, under
which il was proposed TO confer upon the
President the right to suspend the writ Of
Habeas Corpus at the South at will. by
his knowledge of parliamentary law. his
audacity. GOODNESS, readiness and inexhaus-

historic occasion, defeated the purpose of
the Republicans. and thus entitled
himself TO the last ing gratitude Of the
South, against which tbs measure was di-
rected. In his private life, Mr.. Randall was
a man Of blamelcss record, Of unbcndng

was admirable IN every domestic relation.
