No anecdotic rccollections of Governor

dependence Impossible.
London, March 10.-The Standard
which is in closer touch with the pol
icy of the government than any Other
ministerial organ, says this mornings:
1--WE have reason to believe that an
authoritative statement will shortly be
made by the government reafirming
the impossibility Of conceding any
terms Of peace TO the Boer republics
which would involve Il perpctuation OF
the political and military independ-
ence that led to the present costly and
sanguinary conflict"
All the special dispatches from
Poplar Grove confirm the reports OF
the panic Of the Beers. The Morning
Posts correspondent says:
"Prcsident Kruger shed tears at his
Intellectual attempts to rally the Beers
who were completely paralyzed by
Lord Roberts mastery Actics. They
were too demoraliZed to heed his eX
postulations and declared that the
British cannon were everywhere"
The correspondent Of the Daily
News says:
""The Beers were seized with Il panic
thus spelling the whole plan, which
had been beautifully calculated to de
stroy them utterly.
"As the Sixth division emerged from
a hidden position and appeared on the
crest with the mounted infantry in
diminishing order the Beers thought
the whole earth covered with soldiers
in their front and rear and OH their
tanks. They did not wait to verify
their supposition, but fed, seized, APP
parently, with n dread that they might
share the fate of Cronie."

A CITY OF THE PAST.
The Remains Of a Dead Metropolis
i'm Central Asia.


Chicago Record: Of all the impress
sive sights / have seen in central Asia
this dead city of Merv is the most i'm
pressive. Here lie the remains of a me-
tropolis of a million people famed
through the ages for wealth, learning
and power, with not a human being in
all the space dwelling where once the
Multitude lived. Almost as far as the
eye can reach the walls extend, en-
circling the ruins, with gates on all
four sides of the city. Within these
walls the space included measures
many square miles. The scene is n
of absolute desolation. Most of the
area is covered with rubbish no better
defined than ill-shaped piles of crumb-
ling brick heaped OIL mounds where
the buildings fell, some large, some
small. On the larger ones fragments
of highly colored and glazed tile de-
clare that ornamented structures of
some sort once stood there. In some
Instances it is possible to trace the
direction Of the streets by the posi-
ton of successive piles of rubbish on
either side.
Letting the sight sweep over the
great eXpanse of undulating hillocks
of broken masonry, it Is arrested at
intervals by the few well-preserved
ruins hat remain. These stand like
monuments to the dead city, or senti-
nels on guard over the million tombs,
some of these piles themselves great
tombs, others mosques or palaces. 1t
is n study for the philosopher. The
! few that are identified with the names
of their builders or their occupants
are either the ruined palaces of the
potentates of the realm, the tombs
wherein the same men are buried, or
the mosques made famous by Moslem
prophets who are equally powerful.
No memory is preserved of the name
or the work of one of all the millions
who lived here as simple citizens, al
though it was they who created the
wealth, the commerce, the fame of the
city. Here is the place where each
one who chooses may do his own
moralizing.
OF all the ruins the most notable is
the tomb of the Sultan Sandjar. It's
salient feature is n great dome ris-
ing above the crumbling walls and pill
lars, the minarets gone, the brick
walls nearly bare of the glazed tiles
that once covered them. Scrambling
over the heaps of broken masonry on
the ground, we made u way through
the great arch that gives entrance 10
the tomb from one side. Under the
dome stands the granite slab which
marks the grave, like that under the
dome of the tomb of Tamerlane In
Samarkand. The one a~ntedates the
other, however, by several centuries,
for the tomb of the Sultan Sandjar is
dated some 500 years ago. All this
faded grandeur is left to absolute
desolation. The only sign that any
one had been there before us was a
group Of bricks arranged in pairs
standing on end and tilted together
like a letter A. the mark Of Difference
from the Turkomans who still take
pride in the name of Sandjar and
come to worship at his tomb.
