A Heart-rending Scene.

THE New York World says: The most
heartrending scene of the late disaster at
New Hamburg, New York-the dead Fow-
Ter family-has been removed for the people
of another locality to mourn over their sad
fate. Up to the time of their removal all
the five bodies were laid out at the under
takers rooms. They were all encased in
rosewood caskets, and the lids were kept
open during part of the day, so that the
public mourners could walk in and view
the solemn picture. Here was an entire
family who had all perished at one fell
stroke, leaving not single one to come
after when grief had brought despair and
despair had changed to death. The father
and mother lay side by side, beautifully en-
shrouded, but their disfigured facesI Wrap-
ped in white linen and shut out from view.
Near by were two smaller caskets, one
containing the son, and the other the eld-
est daughter. The first was a fair-haired
boy, aged about twelve years. He was not
mutilated in the least, and the expression
on his face was remarkable. 1t did not
resemble that of corpse, or of a person
asleep. He appeared as if he had closed
his eyes, simply feigning sleep, and SO life
like was the whole expression that the
beholder was almost constrained to believe
that the eyes would presently open and the
natural lips part in a playful smile. His
sister, girl two years younger than the
boy, was discolered on the whole right side
of the head and face The rest of her
body had been protected from the fire, all
except the thumb and forefinger of the
right hand. The arms were folded across
her breast, and the playful hands were
white as snow, save the two fingers that
were burned to black crisp. On one
finger of the left hand she wore a tiny
gold ring, which she carried to her grave.
On the other side of the parents was the
baby laid out in a small casket, and en-
shrouded in snowy white. The entire
family were removed together and con-
veyed to the presence of the bereaved
friends

FOREIGN.

The official declaration of the result of
the election for the Assembly was made in
Paris ON the 17th, before the Hotel de
Vile, in the presence of large concourse
of people. The names of Theirs, Favre,
Vinsoy, Cochin, Picard and Simon were
badly received, while that of General Ul-
rich was cheered
In the French Assembly on the 18th
there were over 600 deputies in attendance.
The executive power of the government
was conferred upon Thiers. The proceed

Ambassadors officially visited Thiers and

A Versailles telegram of the 10th says,
not the slightest doubt was entertained in
high quarters, since NJ Favre's return, re-
garding final peace. Favre had expressed
the opinion that the Assembly could be re-
lied on to make terms. There was an
evident disposition on the part of Prussia
to yield good deal of her demands. 1t
was considered probable that the Emperor
would abandon the idea of entering Paris.

What Becomes Of a Dead Horse.

The Scientific american recently con-,
tanned an article on the uses to which dead
horses can be applied, in the course of
which it is remarked that the animal must
be remarkably good one if he is worth
as much when alive as he is to the retorts
and kettles of the chemist. AS soon as
the horse is dead, his blood is sought by
the manufacturers of albumen, and by
sugar refiners, and the burners of lamp
black. Not drop is allowed to go to
waste.
The name and tail are wanted for hair
cloth, sieves, bow strings, and brushes
The skin is converted into leather for cart
harness, tor boots and shoes, and strong
collars. The hoofs are used for combs,
homework, glue, and in old times were
the chief source of hartshorn, now OBJ
tanned from the gas-house. The flesh is
boiled down in the rendering vat, and
much oil and fat is obtained from it. Some
of the choice bits may find their way into
cheap restaurants, and play the part of
beefsteak, or help to enrich the hasty
plates of soup of these establishments.
The flesh left after all has been extracted
from it that is of any service, is sometimes
burned, to be used as manure, or is worked
up into nitrogenous compounds, such as
cyanides, to be used by the photographer
in taking our pictures. The stomach and
intestines make invaluable strings and
cords for musical instruments, and out of
the bones so many useful articles are man.
ufactured that it is almost impossible to
make out complete list of them. Among
them are buttons, toys, tweeZers, knife
handles, rulers. cups, dominoes, balls and
the residue from all these things is burnt
into bone black to be used by the sugar
refiner, who puts in second claim on the
dead horse; and some part of the bone
black is burned white, to be used by the
assayer in testing gold; and when the as
sayer and refiner have finished with it, it
is converted into super phosphate, to serve
as a valuable manure on our land. The
teeth are used as substitutes for ivory and
the iron shoes, if not nailed over the door
to insure good fortune to the household,
are worked up into excellent wrought
metal. Some portion of the bone-black is
converted into phosphorus, for the manu-
facture of matches, and lately valuable
bread preparation is made of the phos-
phate, and medicines are prepared for the
cure of consumptives.

A good deal of excitement has been
created in New York city by recent
heavy advance in the price of coal, the re.
suit of scarcity caused by the suspension
of work in the mining regions. 1t is
alleged that "there is determination on

mining of coal has been actually prevented
by the enormous freights charged by the
railroad companies, and these rates will
continue until the miners come to terms"

they "believe that the oil train could not
have been stopped soon enough to have
prevented the accident; that the employees
of the oil train used all the means at their
command to promptly signal the coming
express train; that the signalmen did their
duty in the premises; that the express
train was half a mile from the obstruc-
ton when first signaled, and could have
been stopped, provided all the appliances
had been effective; that for some reason to
the jury unknown the patent brakes were
not effectively applied" s-iGtz b-ii-
