'B. MacCallum, Mcentiate OF the Royal Col

'9yew York, "a Nov, 1s60," C9 in relation 10 an
article published in the HERALD Of last Sunday on
the subject Of post-mortem examinations. He says
he does not !think that II Is any worse to make .
postm0rtem examination than II Is TO consign the
dead to the earth, where they must become subject
to decomposition and corruption In their most
hdeous FORMS" Looking at the question from the
standpoint OF ''deductvc argument and not the
claw Of association lie asks in the case Of an
obscure disease where the diagnosis is doubtful and

anatomy an adopted custom, how many cases OF
poisoning would be prevented by the very fact
that they were brought to light under ITS
rule, and thus death would frequently be
eyaded, whether 1t were about to be pro-
duced by the malpractice Of practitioner
or the poisoned challce OF an assassin. surely no
person OF common sense due reflection would
consider p0st-mortem examination either gr:ev-

Tho March trial term OF the Supreme judicial
Court for this (BeKnap) county commenced yester-
day, Ira Perley, Chief Justice, presiding, the At
torney General Of the State Mr.. W. q. Cienk being
in attendance. The chief interest In this term
centres in the Farrar poisoning case. The Grand
Jury have found bill against Mrs. Isabella Farrar,
charging her with an attempt to poison her hus-
band, George r. Farlar, by administering to him
strychnne and cyanide OF potassium IN ms drinks.
Proceedings against Miss Anna Moulton, VINO was
arrested as IN accessory, have been abandoned,
there appearing to be no good reason for holding
her further. she seems to be entirely exonerated.

Street Cleaninu.

'ePro Bono Publico" gives some good suggestions
in regard to the street cleaning question: in which
he says that lit is impossible for any one man to
properly superlntend tho cleaning OF o large city
like New York" The proper remedy is to let the
street cleaning he contracted for Upwards, and in
no instance allow the same contractor to undertake
the cleaning OF more than one ward. Private citt-
zens should gather the refuse in front of their houses

done at public expense and the owners assessed
therefor The gathering or dirt should be done by

the increasing activity OF money and the scarcity

s'There was very general calling In Of loans this

the increased demand incident to replacing them

per cent difference ruled for awhile between cash

centage was also paid in many instances In addition
to interest upon loans, but as three O'Clock drew
near 1t became evident that those who were holding
out for q commission had not found full employment

gretary co Insiders 1t proper to call the
attention Of the acknowledgements
atives of the two nations Interested
to the position and government on
the subject. He notifies the diplo-
matte Representative Of France and
Great Britain that In the absence OF
the assent TO or concurrence OF the
Government of the United States, the
proceedings of the parties Interested
must be taken in submission to the
authority of the Government in the
premises. The Secretary further
states that the policy of the
Government in regard to the allow
ance and regulations of foreign tele-

ate consideration from Congress, and
that bill covering the whole sub
ject, was passed in the Senate. but at
SO late day that the House. of Rep

says It is quite probable that this bill
announces the policy and purpose OF
Congress. and the propriety OF Its
