or Willie of Rockland, Me, lying in the har-

tnat OF any other American, UT indeed of
any man not fellow countryman. With

him. but he goes to the grave mourned by all
that is best in America, and amid the heart
felt regard and admiration of England.
Many kilograms from Englishmen promi-
nent In literary, dramatic and other walks
OF life, are being received in this city, ex-
pressing sorrow and deep regret at the death
of Mr.. Lowell.
All morning and afternoon papers Of the
city and the papers published in the PROV
inces have long and atfectionate articles on
Mr. Lowell.
