Draper removes from the foremost. rank of "the world's", "scientists a man -who lor originality of thought, breadth' of judgment, conscientiousness, of statement and tinwoaribd, endeavor to learn and impart, has rarely been equaled. An Englishman by birth,-he came to this country at such an earlyage that he can bo claimed as an American. During the early "years of his- life he prac ticed, medicine and wrote little, be ing more, of an observer' than a, comr.ientor, but in the fullness of his manhood he gave" to the world many great benefits as the result of twenty years of study and care ful observation. His studies on photography and light, on the laws of heat an I the theory of acous tics were sources of information Jo thousands', and some Of his most elaborate works upon national sci ence are aclino-.vlede'd sources of anlhoiity. But his greatest work is the. "History of tho xVmerican. Civil War." To us it seems the o:th' history of our internecine strife that is worthy of mention. Its research, fairuess,' jn.-tice and regard for truth and facts entitle it to the highest need of praise. The loss of this great m-in will be severely felt by the intellectual world, of which he was so bright a part. NEW TO-DAY. Consignees Notice.
