The Greatness of America Manifest

New York. May 20.-The Sun prints she'following significant dispatch from H. R. Chamberlain, it's London cores pondent:
 The moment is at hand when the Am1rican government and American people must decide the destinies of Christendom for at least a generation to come It is absolutely imperative that the atteE.icn of the United States should be turned from the daily events of the Spanish-American war to the vastly greater issues which involve the future political history of the entire world.
 I have repeatedly urged the readers of these dispatches, in the past few weeks, the importance of the great crisis in the affairs of mankind of which the present war is only single feature. It will serve, perhaps, to demonstrate this importance if I men f .tion a. single fact, knowledge of which has been confined until now to diplomatic circles. It is this:
 Had it not been for the sharp veto of the British government, the United States would have been confronted, several days ago, with the difficult problem whether to withdraw Dewey ignominiously from the Philippines or fight combined Europe. I make this statement on the authority of two prominent members of the Salisbury cabinet and it's accuracy is beyond question Moreover, it falls far short

The big gun" of which the mate

The "big gun" OF which the mate
spoke was merely an old six-poundsr.
which could only be effective at pretty
short range. 1t was necessary to APP
proach very near the land, but, favored
with a fine working breeze, we ven
tured to run the risk. The natives
took the alarm as they saw the ship
steadily holding her way almost to the
outer limit of the reef; and when her
broadside swung to bear upon the
beach, and the word was given to fire
not human being was to be seen.
The gun was trained as accurately as
We knew how upon the large building,
and the mate applied the match, grind
ing his teeth as he did so. AS its
sharp report died away discordant
chorus of yells succeeded, and num-
Der of men poured out of the building,
clustering around one who seemed 20
have been wounded. Others were also
seen rushing from various quarters,
and several ran toward the shore with
gestures of fear and supplication.
Load up again, quick!" said Mr.
Manchester, now thoroughly excited.
I'VE ratified the bamboo and thasch
about their ears, that time, know. l
can see the hole in the broadside of
the house."
But there was no need to fire again.
A group now appeared with the boy
Bill in the center, hurrying him down
to tine water side, and the most frantic
signals were made inviting communi-
cation. Another group bore the body
of the wounded man, and me women
and children formed in the background
of the picture, among the cocoa palms,
with appraised hands and piercing
cries.
Heading off shore under short sail.
but with the gun still loaded and bear
ing upon the landing place, we ap-
preached with the boat as near as was
prudent, and our boy, plunging in,
swan out to us, and was heartily
greeted by his shipmates. On the
coral slope, at the feet Of the fright
ened natives, lay the body of Jack
Sullivan, his face upturned to the
| blazing tropical sun.
'Is he badly hurt?" demanded the
mate.
Dead, SIR" answered the boy "Tae
| ball struck him full in the head"
Pull ahead, Them was the order, as
he laid the boats head round off
shore. We've no time to lose, with
the ship SO close into the rocks, and
J they are welcome to his body, if they
want it,"
| The captain took Bills hand, with a
tear in his eye, when he stood once
more on the ships deck He said moth
ing of punishment for desertion; he
did not even reproach him, but left
him to his own thoughts.
The lesson had not been lost upon
him. BOY Bill'' is now shipmastel
himself, and this rash adventure of
his boyhood seems almost like dream
to him.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1898-01-20

He was recognized at a glance. We
had no doubt that Sullivan was also
inside; though he probably remained
there at his own desire, the boy plain
ly showed his eagerness to escape and
join his shipmates.
Our baffled captain was now at his
wits end. 1t would never do to sac
rifice life in making an attack upon
these people at close quarters, and ;e-
luctantly the order was given to weigh
the grapnels and pull away for our ship
in the offing.
We had hardly made half dozen
dips of the oars, when the crack of a
musket was heard, and ball struck
in the water near us. Yells of deri-
sion rose on the air from the whole
population; and the desperate, Sulli-
van, swinging a musket aloft. Joined
in the insulting cry of defiance. Percheu
on the roof of the council house he
had fired the shot at us as soon as he
saw we had abandoned our undertake
ing. The boy Bill was not to be seen
Lets stand in with the ship and
give them shot from the big gun,
said the mate. I'VE can do it safe
enough, sir, I think"
II will do It," returned Captain Will
COX, "even If l lose the ship. "Pull
ahead, and let's get aboard before The
breeze dies away! The scoundrel"
