UsFSG DEAD BoD1Es For notwithstanding
to the eeelcsiastcal laws of England and the prac
tice Of some bigoted cIergymen, pnbaptized per
sons are denied Christian burial. On this poin
the London correspondent Of the New York Worlt
tells the following almost incredible story:
A certain clergyman in Norfolk, through pity
suppress the e--has been for years in the habit
Of nanuFing his glebe land by soil carted from the
ehurchyard. Last year he had about fifty cart
leads removed for that purpose and when spread
on his glebe land it was found to have large ad-
mixture Of dead mems bones skulls and other
portions Of the human body being found in great
abundance. This discovery led to considerable
excitement ia the parish, and an inquiry was insti
tnted; and what do you think was his explanation?
Why, he deemed it no improperly, because the
flty loads had beentaken from that portion Of the
cunsecrafel ground where the unbaptzed were
usually buried! And thus the bones of the un-
haptzed are used openly and avowedly for manur-
ing the parsons glebe! Such is the law, and ouch
the practice, in enlightened and evangelical Eng
land, in the year Of grace 1861.
