River Bend Cemetery.

YHE Trustees of this Association, mt their
i last meeting, resolved that further no
tice should be given to the public, and es-
pecially to those who have determined to
take lots in the Cemetery, to make their Sc
lections without delay. The grounds have
necessarily been prepared mt considerable
cost, and the Company are unwilling to go
on with further improvements, though much
needed, until lots shall have been taken to
meet the expenditure already made.
There is no want of feeling or interest in
any who have visited this appropriate and
beautiful spot. All seem to realize the inn
portance Of the work, but it must be readily
seen how entirely its success is dependent
on the encouragement, and especially the
early encouragement which is given to it,
Rev. Mr.. Taylor, superintendent, is now en-
gagged on the grounds, in fitting up lots
which have already been taken, and in a
manner very creditable to his skill. Iiewill
be there on Tuesday and Friday of each
week to give any information wanted by
persons applying for lots
The present price being much lower than
the usual rates, it is now expected there
will be some advance in the price Of lots af
ter the 1st day of August next.

Metallic Burial Cases 1;

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 Cotiins, for depositing in vaults,
or for ordinary interments. The advant-
ages they possess are obvious to all. Being
enamelled inside and out, they are imperyi-
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 irruptiOn of water or depreda-
tions Of vermin, as is the case where wood
Coffins are used, would alone suffice to re-
commend them. They are also superior to

Your analysis Of the slave laws is very
able, and your exhibition of their practical
application by the Southern Courts, cvinccs
great and careful research. Your book is
as impregnable against the charge of exag-
