- The Pail Mall Gazette says: "The ad
vocates of cremation must look to their laurels
which appear likely to be wrested from them
by a German savant, DIR. Won Steinbeis
His proposed method of disposing of the
bodies of the dead provides against injury tc
the living, while it offers no violence to the
feeling which shrinks from destroying the
corpse of beloved friend or relation. De
composition is, of course, an innocuous pro-
cess, provided its results cannot infect the air
DR.. Won Steinbeis therefore proposes to cover
the body with Roman or Portland cement
which hardens into solid mass and renders
the escape of noxious gases impossible. Ac'
cording to this plan the corpse would be
placed in sarcophagus of already hardened
cement, the cavity in which it reposed would
be filled up with the same material, and both
would harden together into thick slab Of a
substance resembling stone. Thus the de,
ceased, buried in this manner, would rest
within, instead of under, his tombstone, and
grave and monument would be comprised in
the same block of imitation granite

SUDDEN DEATH.

Mr.. Solomon Quin, who lived near Bethany
church in this county, on returning to his
home from the field in which he had been
working, late in the afternoon of Thursday
last, while crossing bridge over small
stream, fell from the bridge into the brook, and
was taken up dead. 1t is supposed he was
killed by the fall. He was "a years Of age
and in feeble health, being subject to vertigo,
an attack of which probably caused him to
fall from the bridge. As he was seen to fall
by laborer in another part of the field, his
family deemed an inquest unnecessary.
