A MEMBER of the far-famed Qua
IN daug Club-tho Historical and Pts
catorial Society of Westchester County
tells Of curious funeral custom in one
Of the Long Island agricultural districts,
Il district remarkable for its fertility in
clans and bluetish. He says that few
years ago he went down on the island
with a view of purchasing farm which
he had seen avertiscd for sale lie spent
several days in the village his inquiries
as to the value of the farm were satisfac-
torily and assuringly answered, and he
finally had the honor to assist at a flu
neral, lie noticed in the funeral process
sion heavy cant drawn by oxen, and the
cart was filled with guano. He was sur
priscd to see the contents of the vehicle
deliberately emptied into the grave before
the earth was thrown in. Upon inquiry
of the minister he ascertained that this
custom was in accordance with an old tra-
diton of the farmers on that part of Long
Island, who believed the soil was so poor
and thin as to require fertilizer to in
sure the resurrection Of any thing buried
III it except clams!!
Our correspondent didn't buy that
farm on Long Island, but eventually set
tied in one Of the fcver-and-ague districts
of Westchestcr County, where they have
a curious funeral observance of their own,
and where most Of the people die of fe-
yer and ague. At the funerals the
mourners uniformly sprinkle quinino on
She graves of the deceased to prevent
their being prematurely shaken out

What She Thought.

In the county parish in Scotland the
minister and the ruling elder went over
the muir to visit an old parishioner on
catechising visit, and the walk being a
long one their appetites were pretty keen
when they arrived Before commencing
the serious business they suggested that
the inner man was clamorous. Janet ac-
cordingly went to the press and placed on
the table country refrcshment, bread,
milk, etc and seating herself at a little
distance, requested the visitors to fall to.
They soon cleared the board, and the
minister remarked "Mow, Janet, we'll
begin the serious business. Do you rcmem-
Der the text last Sunday, Janetf"
"Deed | do,' replied Janet, L mind
