The SALARY grab" has been repealed.
The vote in the Senate was 50 yeas and 8
nays. of which five were Republicans,
two Democrats, and one Liberal. In the
House the vote was 226 yeas and % nays.
of which fourteen were Republicans and
eleven Democrats. The bill as adopted
was offered by Senator Conklipg, and
provides for the restoration of the old
salary. except for the President and the
Supreme Court, and ''covers in" to the
Treasury all the money which has not
been drawn, or which has been returned
under the ''grab." The bill fixes the
salary of members Of the House at FIVE
thousand dollars, with the old mileage
and allowances, but prohibits mileage
for the present session. If Congress now
wishes to abolish mileage and allow
ances, it can do SO. But there seems to
be no reason for making the eompensa-
ton smaller than it was before, and
without mileage the salaries are very un-
equal. 1t costs some members from
Maryland three or four dollars to go and
come, but the member from Oregon and
California must pay as many hundreds

BURNING VS.. BURIAL.-An eccentric
will, wherein the testator requested that
his body might be burned in gas retort,
and thus made to contribute to the en-
lightenment instead of the poisoning of
the world, has revived the long forgot
ten subject of cremation. Without doubt
Mr.. Trelawney's hideously graphic des-
cription of the burning of the body of
Shelley has greatly contributed to preju-
dice the public mind against the cleanest
and best method of getting rid Of the
mortal coil" But the ceremony at
Spezzia was conducted in very bung-
ling fashion, and a want of scientific ap-
pliances contributed to the incomplete
ness, and, therefore, to the horror of a
simple operation. A retoIt gets rid Of
the entire difficulty, and both from a
unitarian, scientific. sanitary and
poetic point of view, the mausoleum,
decked with cinetary urns, possesses i'm
mense advantages over the damp and
unwholesome graveyard, exhaling pes
tiferous odors. to which modern nations

ployed.
