ST. HEUCNA TO-DAV. The island prison of Napoleon is today an isolated island of decay. 'I lie opening of the Sue/. Canal marked the decline of St. Helena, and now .poverty is the main impression retained by the visitor. The only important institution is a cable station. The first tomb of the Emperor Napoleon is the .Mecca of all visitors to St. Helena. The original tend) is enclosed I,v imn railings, and consists of a large white slab, without any inscription. carefully planted round with geraniums. At l.ongwood, where the Emperor lived in his exile, is the unpretentious house, restored from decay, into which it was allowed to fall after the body of the Emperor was taken to France. Most of tlie historical relics have been removed, but a remarkably handsome bust of Napoleon, executed from a cast taken aider his death, was left.
