TIE USES OF PHoTOGRAPHY.-Eyery day the
art Of photography, that excellent handmade to
science and TO society, seems to develop some
fresh use. 10 is now announced in the French
papers HAT visiting the Paris mOrgue Is to be
abolished, and a recent edict of the project OF
police OFdainS that in future each corpse is to be
photographed, and the portrait alone exposed to
the public gaze. The establishment is to have a
% resident photographer" This would seem TO
be an Improvement over the previous practice,
and perhaps the idea might be well adopted in
some OF our American cities, in analogous cases,
where idle curiosity leads persons not par
ticularly interested to the pretended identifca-
ton OF dead bodies 90 exposed.

ANOTHER MYSTERY.
Probably Homie ide-Struck with
Marlin Spike.

Probably ~ Homie ide-Struck with a
Marlin Spike.
Another mysterious case which may prove to be
murder is now under investigation before Coro-
ncr Schirmer.
1 on the 9th ultmo Captain Jabcz Lyon, Of the
sloop North America, took to Bellevue Hospital n
youth eighteen years of age, named william Norris
whom he said had been injured aboard his vessel,
then lying at the foot OF Charles street, North
River, but in what particular manner did not ap-
pear from the Captains statement.
Norris grew gradually worse, and the attending
surgeon, tearing fatal result asked him who in
nctcd the injuries he had received but he refused
to tel. Becoming satisfied that Norris would die,
the surgeon reluctantly informed him OF his con-
dtion, at the same time earnestly re-
| ing the means used to PROSTATE him
on his sick bed. After much consideration the
dying Roy said he had been struck on the head with
| a marlnspike while aboard the sl0Op on which he
| had been employed, but refused to tell ut whose
hands the blow was inflicted. william continued
to sink, and without making further confession,
died on Thursday last. Where deceased lived, or
who his relatives or friends are has not yet been
learned.
Deputy Coroner Joseph Cushman, M. D., yester-
day made pOst-mOrtem examination ON the BODY
skull the result OF violence, but In what manner
received remains to be determined by future de-
velopments In the case.
Since the occurrence Captain Lyon has lett port
with his vessel and Is still absent. The Captain Of
the Ninth precinct has been conferred with on the
subject, and will make strenuous Efforts TO arres
CAPTAIN Lyon and solve the mystery.

With tomorrow commences the fourth week OF
the movement for the establishment of the eight
hour system. The unions that have occupied the
field during the last fortnight seem to have made
'scarcey any progress towards gaining the end
'soueht. They remain in status Qslo their courage
,undamped, but their directors suffer in any
comparison with those of the earlier
organizations, whose rapid and decisive
combinations led to such immediate and brilliant
results. The men who directed the movements of
the carpenters and bricklayers must have been
students of Jomni and imbued with Napoleons
theory of interior and exterior strategic
lines. They concentrated every available force
upon the weakest positions of their opponents,
and they succeeded on the other hand, the policy
of the Germans who control the working of
the Eight-lour League and all it's various branches,
seems to be defensive While tangible success has
been achieved here they are now contemplating q
revolt OF men in their trades at Rochester, and are
more or less mixed up with the strikes at Boston.
Pittsburg, Providence and elsewhere. Nowhere
now can be found prophet bold enough to predict
the end or when it will arrive.
