Coffin busting.

Moncure d. Conway, in his London
letter to the Cincinnati Commercial,
writes: "There is money enough ex-
pended in merely idle ways to relieve
all the actual suffering in the coun-
try, and to raise the people a full de-
gree in the scale of humanity. How is
this money spent? The other day a
solemn group proceeded to the base
ment of church in Penge, near the
Crystal Palace, and there busted an
old coffin. 1t was the coffin of one
Mary Wragg, who loved neatness.
When she died she left a bequest of los
Cd annually to have her coffin busted,
one guinea to be given to the clergyman
on the occasion, and two gllineas to pro-
vide dinner for her coffin-dusters. The
sum is small, but | refer to the solemn
continuance of this ceremony simply

pounds in this country are annually

skeletons for nothing at all. y

adopt the highly improbable course of

self as Indifferent whether Mr.. Moulton

suspicion that he will keep silent. His
