general of cavalry and adjutant-general. When 

 the nihilists made an attempt to kill the Czar in 

 April, 1879, Gen. Gurko was appointed governor- 

 general with unlimited powers tor the repression 

 of disorders. He established a state of siege and 

 used military means without stint. Yet he could 

 not cope with the secret revolutionary societies, 

 and after the explosion in the Winter Palace in 

 February, 1880, he was dismissed in disgrace arid 

 retired from active service. His successors did no 

 better, and after the assassination of Alexander 

 II, in March, 1881, he was called back, advanced 

 to the grade of field-marshal, and in 1883 was ap- 

 pointed Governor-General of Poland, where he 

 dealt with the resistance offered to Russification 

 by using stern and vigorous measures. Retiring 

 with broken health in 1894, he lived henceforth in 

 seclusion.

 born in Troy, N. Y., in 1825; died in February,

 English (1873) and other philological works, and 

 began in 1879 to collect references and other mate-

Hanbury, Mrs. Elizabeth (Sanderson), an 

 English philanthropist, born in London, June 9, 

 1793; died in Richmond, Oct. 31, 1901. She was 

 of Quaker parentage, and when Mrs. Elizabeth 

 Fry began the systematic visiting of Newgate 

 prison she was joined by Miss Sanderson, who de- 

 voted herself to such labor for many years, being 

 especially assiduous in visiting convict ships for 

 women. Until she undertook this work the condi- 

 tion of these convict ships was most deplorable, 

 but, largely through her efforts, much was done 

 to better the surroundings of the prisoners upon 

 them. She was associated with the Gurney and 

 Buxton families in their philanthropic work, as 

 well as with Clarkson, the famous abolitionist. 

 She married Cornelius Hanbury in 1826, and 

 spent much of her after life in Stoke Newington, 

 London, becoming in course of time an 

 " acknowledged minister " among the Friends. 

 Throughout her long life she maintained a deep 

 interest in religious and benevolent undertakings, 

 and she was still able to read and write after 

 passing her hundredth year.
