CREMATION is 10 be suspended, and instead of destroying a corpse by tire. as the ancientS did, or making gas of the same, as had been suggested. an inventor of Grenoble, France, propos- es the opposite method, and preserves them forever. At the decease of an individual the body is plunged into a liquid invented by him, and in about five years the individual IS turned into stone. The secret of the peirifactiOn IS known only to the discoverer. But he goes further. He says that in a thousand years time, if persons will only preserve their relatives and friends, they will be able to build a house with them, and thus lives in res idences surrounded by their ancestors" Another application of this process has been suggested, namely, to have inc petritied corpse nickle-plated. or with bronze. and if a statue of an individual is desired. to place the corpse on a proper pedestal. so as 10 fulfill the functions of being the statue of the party deceased.

THE EFFECT OF SHORT FEED.-In conversation with a wool grower re gently We were informed of fact that. although well known to sheep men generally, was at least new to us, as it doubtless is to many of our readers
 He stated that when sheep ran short of Iced 10 such an extent that they do not get enough to eat every day and are then given good feed, the result is at once perceptible Tn the wool. there be
 ing, when clipped, a weak spot in the fibre, which is readily disccrnibIe by taking a thread in the hands and stretching It out, when the weak spot will give way and the thread will break
 There may be several weak spots in the wool, indicating the number of llmeS that the sheep had gone hungry for a few days. Of course this class of wool Is worthless, except for shoddy cloth, and will not bring the price in the market that tirSt-claSs quality of wool commands. The fact is interest Ing, and illustrates the pecuniarv as well as the humanitarian necessity of supplying the sheep with an abundance oi feed and never letting them go hun Sry.-Stockton Independent, Nov. 29.

TIE death of William Abbott. "the King of the CariboO mineS," is an nounced as having occurred at VictO- ria, British Columbia, short time ago.
 IL was our lot to make a pilgrimage to
 the CaribOo gold fields in the spring .ci 1862, and, while there, we became
 acquainted with Abbott and learned a
 good deal in regard to his career in the
 mInes. He was one of a company
 who strucl, rich pay on Williams
 Greek m 1861, and arrived at Victoria
 with 300 pounds of gold dust in the
 fall of that year. He was the lion of the town that winter, and spent his gold lavishly. On one occasion he en- tered saloon and shied handful of $2O pieces ot large plate-glass mirror behind the bar, Shattering it into When reprimanded by the bar-keeper, he told him to keep the |" the trash (meaning the gold) for the damage.n On another occasion he and another CaribOoite aStoniShed the town by throwing SEQ pieces at each other until stopped by the police. The commenced with snowballs. Those were flush times In Victoria. On his return to CaribOo in the Spring Of 1862, AbbOits good fortune contin- ued, and he was known 10 stake $lO,- poo on hand of poker. After two or three years, he got to the bottom of his claim and his purse about the same time, and was miserably poor at he time of his death. Such Is life. |.
