Abandonment OF St. Helena.

The British Government has given
orders that the garrison OF st. Helena
shall be removed next month. It had
long ceased to be OF any practical use
except for preserving a tradition and
providing salaries for a number Of off,
Gals. 1t has no military Importance
now, and had very little rel in the days
Of sailing vessels. As the island has no
harbor no danger could threaten any
British interest, even IL it were seized by
a hostile feet.
When steam was unknown and the
great fleets Of East Indiamen had to
double the Cape OF Good Hope, when the
Suez Canal was undreamt Of, when whal-
ing was a profitable industry and the
South Atlantic a great fishing ground,
st. Helena was a convenient station on
the long voyage, where water and fresh
food might be obtained, weather per-
hitting. It could support in comfort a
population that was not in excess OF it's
natural resources.
Then came the caging Of the Corsican
ogre. British terror could find no more
remote prison for the man who had es-
capped from Elba, and the guard set
over NAPOLEON was kept up long after
the military uselessness Of the station
was understood. The population came
to live chiefly on the services it could
render the garrison, and both depended
largely on supplies from without.
Now the great Indiamen and the whal-
ers are gone; the route to India has been
changed and steamers only pass by; the
terror Of NAPOLEON and all his works
has abated-he is merely an exploded
-Napoleonic legend now; the garrison
and the supplies are going; st. Helena Is
more remote than ever-too remote even
to hope for tourists, and a good many Of
the 1000 inhabitants would like to get
out OF the place.
It seems that they cannot without g.
