A Deyonshire correspondent of the
Pail Mall Gazette writes; Two lives
rarely run 50 closely parallel as those
of Robert and Mary Essery, who had
lived for many years at Orchard hill
Farm, near Bideford. They had been
married sixty-fye years when the
husband fell i'll. His wife attended
to him assiduously, and when he
died on Wednesday afternoon she ex-
claimed, "Thank God, he has gone
before mel" 1t was not long, how
ever, for the old lady sank back ex-
hausted, and died within FIVE hours.
Both the deceased were verging on
ninety years of age.

A curious triaI Is soon to take
place at Lyon: in France. A gentle
man had his foot amputated, and
though frequently dunned, has as of
ten declined to pay the bill of the
operating surgeon, alleging that he
dissected the severed foot at lecture
before the hospital students, instead
of burying the amputated member
in consecrated ground as agreed up
on. The patient, it is further stated,
has even taken a cross-aetion against
the surgeon for breach of contract.
The latter states that the foot was
dealt with as is usual in all such
cases. In Paris the diJieeta membra
of the schools OF anatomy are buried
in the "Potter's field OF Ivry, where
are inferred also the guillotined, the
idiots, lunatics, and the unclaimed OF
the Morgue.

We were neutral in the controver-
sy over Liquor license in our County,
but the effects of it were painfully
witnessed upon Iour streets on the
two preceding Saturdays, and were
surprised that our usual prompt city
Sergeant was not upon a more sharp
lookout. 1t was shocking sight, to
notice the different throngs Of per-
sons intoxicated in front Of several
business houses on our most public
(Main) street. Such actions are not
only disgusting but they very mater
tally interfere with our lady popula-
ton in doing their necessary shop
ping. We do not believe our saloon
keepers can be too careful as to whom
they sell, knowing their bond is a
very heavy one to prevent habitual
drunkards from obtaining intoxica-
ting drinks.
