Trouble Between Knights Of Pythias and
'ai 81 A Catholic Priest.

An alteration is said to have taken place
between some Knights of Pythias and a
Catholic priest in Sidney yesterday. Mr..
Berry, member of the Pythias order, was
lying at the point of death, and was being
cared for by members of the fraturnity.
His wife, however, who is Catholic, sent
for priest, and during the interview be-
tween the latter and the dying man the
knights retired from the bed-chamber.
When the priest came out he said that Mr..
Berry had renounced Pythiasism and the
Protestant religion and embraced the Cath
Ole faith. This the Knight in waiting did
not believe, and one of them going into
the chamber again, returned to say that he
was authorized by Mr.. Berry to deny it.
Exactly how the question was settled does
not yet appear; but it has given rise to a
good deal of hard feeling. Mr.. Berry has
Since died, and it is announced that the
knights of Pythias will claim the right to
bury his body and care for his family, in
accordance with their usage. He was a
member of Jefferson Lodge, No. 23.-Pe-

BENEFIT OF LAUGHTER.-Probab there

the minute blood-vessels OF the body that
does not feel some wavelet from the convul
sions OF hearty laughter. The blood
moves more lively-probably its chemical,
electric, or vital condition is distinctly mod
ifed-it conveys a different impression to
all the organs oil the body as it visits them
on that particular mystic journey when we
are laughing, from what it. does at ether
times. And so, we doubt not, a good solid
laugh may lengtlien our lives conveying a
distinct stimulus TO the vital forces. Aud

tending more closely than they are apt to
do at present to the innumeratle subtle
influences which the soul exerts upon its
tenement of clay, shall prescribe to a tor
pid patient, $50 many peals OF laughter to
be undergone at such and such time. -
just as they now do that far more obiec-

or galvanic shock and shall study the best
and most effective method OF producing the
required effect in each patient-Herald of
