and in domestic practice. the surest remedy their

THESE Cases, now coming into general
use, are admitted by those who have wit
messed their merits, to be superior to any
other kind of Collins for deposting in vaults,
or Tor ordinary interments. The advant-
ages they possess are obvious to all. Being
enamelled inside and out, they are impervi-
Gus to dampness; and the qualification sur
viving friends have in the reflection that the
body is deposited in an imperishable case
where all that remains of the deceased is
kept together, without danger of being
crushed by the weight Of earth upon it and
free from the irrupton of water or depreda-
tions Of yermin, as is the case where wood
Collins are used, would alone suffice to re-
commend them. They are also superior to
any other Collins for Transporting Bodies J;
for, when properly cemented, they are per-
fcctly AlR-TlGHT and free from exhalation
of offensive gases. They COST NO MORE

How scant of beauty is the share;
And oft ponder in the street
