1t is stated by the Buffalo Republic, that
an eminent New York physician has written
an elaborate work in favor of burning which
is to be published after his death. He is
estimated to be worth S3O,00O and the
following facts are obtained from tho attor-
ncy who drew up his will:
"By his will he directs his mortal remains
to be kept for five days in warm room
the throax then TO be opened and the heart
extracted, which is to be embalmed and en-
closed in thick vellum bag, strongly i'm
pregnated with asphaltum; the remainder
of his body to be publicly burned on pyrc
of sassafras or sandal wood, in one of the
public CONFERENCE.-The ashes carefully gath
cred and deposited with the embalmed heart
in bronze urn. Five copies of the leading
daily city papers, containing an account Of
the whole proceeding, are likewise directed
to be deposited in the urn, which is then to
be hernetically sealed and taken to the New
York Museum.
In the midst of the excitement created by
these proceedings, the work is to be publish
ed. For its circulation $4,000 are appro,
priated, $4,000 moro for distribution
among the city officials aud leading politi
cians Of all parties, who are to receive from
$25 TO 500 each for assisting in the cere
mony and $4,000 more for the edtoria
fraternity, to be divided pro rata according
TO their influence.
Should anything occur to prevent the du,
execution OF the will, the bulk Of the pro
perty is to be at once transferred TO char
table institution in the city of Philadel
phia."

formation About ft.
The following is the most accurate infor-
nation we have yet obtained in regard to
the Sorghum Saccharinum, or new Chinese
Sugar Cane. 1t is from communication
to the Honolulu (Sandwich Islands) 41dVer-
tiser
The stalks are as destitute as grass of
saccharine taste. But its value as grain
is more than commensurate to its lack of
sugar. 1t is most beautiful cereal, white
round and delicate as sago in looks, and
yields enormously. From specimen rid
died by the weevils, (nothng but what is
good will they eat,) l got eighteen grains
and planted last February. 1t looked like
broom corn at first but soon threw up eigh.
teen or twenty side shoots from each root
On the top of each shoot expanded head
heavy with most beautiful grain, like those
l sent you, ripening in four months from
planting From each seed there must have
been Weld of more than 10000, at the
first cutting. But in few weeks there
shot up both from the root and from eacl
Joint of the stock left below the cutting, new
heads, not quite so heavy as those gathered
first, but from their number amounting to
much more grain in the aggregate. Up to
this date it had been gathered four times
In July l gathered the first seed and
planted again fresh from the stock, and in
November gathered this which send you,
larger, growth than from tho original.
Its good qualities as l have tested it
are:
lst. An unparalleled yield.
2nd. If well rooted worms cannot kill il
as they do corn and beans, for it will throw
out new shoots from the root like wheat
81. 1t is fine feed for cattle or horses
either as grain, or to be cut up green fol
fodder. The latter process only makes il
grow up thicker. But for feeding fowls it i
unsurpassed. 1t fattens them equally will

WHAT IT CosTs TO ENsLAvE KANSAS
The effort to force Slavery in Kansas has
proved expensive to the Party that the Poo
pie hold responsible for the outrage. 1t has
cost the Democracy its ascendancy in Maine,
New Hampshire, Michigan, Wisconsin and
Iowa. 1t has cost them a dozen seats in
the U. S. Senate. 1t has victimized three
Territorial Governors. And finally, it has
sectionaliSed the Supreme Court of the
United States. If the design of swindling
Freedom out of Kansas is persisted in, We
shall see at what further cost that design
is prosecuted.-Atbany Evening Journal.
