A Way to Dispense With Cemeteries

DR.. Frank Richardson, writing to the
London Times, gives the following ex.
traordinary account of a village in the
north Of England "The interesting
letters which have appeared in your
columns during the last week or two
upon the mode Of committing Earth to
Earth tempt me to send you the fol.
lowing instance Of n district in which
that unpleasant process is postponed in
n %sIngularly unusual manner. The
large parish of Alwinton.with. HoIystone
is situated on the southern slopes OF
the Cheviots, includes the upper vale
of the Coquet, and extends about twenty
miles in length and several in breadth,
comprising ii,472 acres. Its popula-
ton has decreased from 1896 Mt the
census Of 1861 TO 1872 at that Of 1871.
The occupations of its inhabitants are
almost equally divided between the
tending Of sheep and the cultivation OF
cereals upon lands which rest in nearly
similar proportions upon free stone and
porphyry. During the year 1871 SIX
deaths occurred in this parish, being nj
the rate OF A. per thousGnd-one OF
those deaths being that OF an unfortu-
nate young shepherd who persisted IN
the recent snow-storm. This mortality
was lower than usual during the pre-.
yious ten years the number was 1OG-an
annual average Of 10 per thousand.
OF these LOG deaths there were l6 be-
tween seventy an eighty years OF age,
and, cnrioGsly, % above eighty years,
considerably more than II quarter OF
the total deaths thus occurring III peo'
pie above eighty years old, or 273.G per
thousand. Now, is there anything ex-
ceptlonal in the ages OF the inhabitants
to account for this low dcath.rate? The
aged and very young, among whom
proportionally the mortality is highest,
exist in large numbers. Within two
miles Of my house | know nine octo'
genarians, and a tenth-our parish clerk
died last week at the age of eighty
three. In this village Of Harbottle,
with l20 inhabitants, there are 81 chill
| dren under fourteen years Of age, and
during the last twenty years no child
has died, and for nearly four years no
one until the case Just mentiohcu.
may add another instance of the large
proportion of children existing and
their immunity from death. A farmer
in this parish and his three shepherds,
who have occupied their present situa'
tions nearly thirty years, have among
them AZ children, and net a single
death has occurred in these families,
The inhabitants have abundance Of
plain, substantial food, excellent water,
good residences as a rule, and regular
but not severe work in a pure, bracinl
atmosphere, and are highly intelligent
and generally abstemious. / am in
debted to the Rev. A. Proctor, who haF
been upwards of forty years the es
teemed vicar, for the confederation Of
the statistics Of the parish, which ]
have now given YOU"

WHEN ANY ANTIDoTE or remedy for
any particular class Of disease obtains a
wide-spreading notoriety, it is but rea-
sonable to suppose that it must merit
the popularity it receives. 1t is within
our province to mention that DIR. j..
Walkers California Vinegar Bitters, so
long and favorably known as the safest
and most reliable remedial agent for
the cure of liver, kidney, bladder, and
glandular diseases, mental and physi-
cal debility, and all complaints emana-
ting from a corrupt state Of the blood,
etc, are in great demand. SO satisfied
are we of the intrinsic worth of this
medicine, that we do not hesitate to
notice it in our columns. 1t is we'll to
mention that this medicine is COM
pounded of roots, herbs, and flowers
of California, and has no fiery material
or alcohol used in its preparation. We
can add no better eulegium than the
fact that we use it constantly in our
own family, and each member thereof
partakes of it, when necessary, accord
ing to directions. -New York Pap>r.

TnE Texas CATTLE DRrvE.--We do
not hear of single herd of cattle driven
from this country this season. Small
lunches have been shipped to Harris
burg and Galveston by way of the rail
road, but none driven. Messrs. Dill
worth 4 littletield, Of Gonzales, have
purchased in western counties about
700 head, which are now on the road.
They inform us that the Kansas drive
cannot sum mp this year 1OO, 600, as
most drivers are falling below their cal
culations. In 1871 over 100000 were
driven. These heavy drives have nearly
exhauated the stock OF cattle in Texas,
and we know not where the drive of
next year is to come from. Beeves have
brought from $40 to $l5 in the range.
The cattle left on out prairies have
wintered we'll and are now in good con-
dition.

Exposure Of Psyche, the English Mys-
terry.

The correspondent of the Cincinnati
Commercial writes from London The
mystery of Psyche" has been dis
covered. You may remember that
"Pyscho" is the wonderful automaton
exhibited by Maskelyne, the coujuror,
which, for II long time, has been puz,
cling the brain of scientific men by it's
accurate playing Of whist. That "Psy-
chO" was in some way connected with
and guided by a human brain was, for
a long time, certain, but as it was COM
pIetely isolated on the top of a simple
glass cylinder, and no possible connec
ton with any one behind the curtain
conceivable, it grew to be our greatest
mystery. The great men of the royal
society went to examine it, but were all
beaten. But, finally, n young Amerl-
can-W. ii. Coffin, son of DIR. G.. W.
Coffin, n celebrated American dentist in
London-atter five visits, hit upon the
secret. Maskelyne himself being una
Bile to submit his figure to the test pro-
posed. The solution is that "Pyscho"
is worked by the condensation and
diminution of the column of air in the
glass cylinder on the top of which he
sits. Beneath the carpet at the bottom
of this cylinder is n perforated plate
Of zinc, connected with the operator be-
hind the scenes, who, at his will, may
increase or decrease the column of air,
tho figure moving IL way or another
in accordance with the pressure put
upon it. The conjuror was at first dis
posed to deny the explanation, but COT
fin told the audience that it could easily
be tested by Maskelyne allowing him to
put n newspaper between the figure and
, the cylinder. This the conjuror de-
clined, and then followed great APP
plause, when it became recognized that
Psyche" as a mystery was at last
dead, or at least had fairly reached his
