PROGRESS OF STARVATION IN
CORK.

Well may the Cork Examiner assert that
Bantry is now as badlyof as Skibbereen.
1t would not be easy to give much more
appalling description. On the 18th inst.
coroners' inquests we're held on the bodies
of Ten persons-six men ane four women
all of whose deaths were, according TO the
verdicts, from starvation: in some cases
accelerated by disease or cold. The follow.
ing is an extract from letter Of the Ex>
aminer's reporter:
each day brings with it its own hor-
rors. The mind recoils from the c0niem.

DEATH OF PoETEss.-The 'Sandoic!
Observer chronicles the death ofMiss Alb
igal C. Bodfish, Of West Barnstabie, aged
81. The editor adds: " Sad TO tell, this
gifted person, whose signature-'Orion'
will be remembered by many admirers
of native talents, died in the aims house.
She has long been bereft of reason, and
at one time was mainta ined al the Wor.
ccsler Asylum. For many preceding
wears, she kept her house rs an invalid,
Her mind had been darkened ny disap-
poin!ment, and she had fretted and re-
teIled aga ms, the place where kerlotwas
cast. Conscious Of possessing superior
mental endowments, she could not bare
10 exist in a sphere where they were con-
demned to obscuriiy."

A SPICE OF ANTIQUITY.

The SABBATH.-The laws relative to the
observance of the Sabbath, were as all know
very strict in the early days of New Eng
land. But it will be seen by the following
document, that excuses were sometimes of.
fered for absence from church, which would
not, in these days of degeneracy even, be
considered valid for the same length Of time
though allowance must be made tor the
scarcity of dentists in those days.
