What a Cre,aatioui.t Snvx

New YORK, Feb. 17.-Mr. julius Kirshner
Of West Fifty-sixth street. whose cremation
of the body of his child last November il,
this city excited considerable remark, has
been much interested in the cremation OF
Mrs. Pltman. He said this evening that the
reports prove that the construction of the
furnace in which Mrs. Pitman was
cremated, was defective because in a
properly constructed furnace there would
be neither smell nor smoke, which
are caused by imperfect combustion
and the use of heat at too low tempera-
ture. Mr.. Kirshner's furnace is nine feet
long, nine feet wide and two feet high. and
SO constructed that the coal and the bodies
are thoroughly consumed without smoke OF
odor This is accomplished by means of a
peculiar form, which prevents the heat from
escaping up the chimney. He has preserved
the ashes of his own child in small box.
he 1eels no repugnance to showing them to
any friend. He has been surprised since the
publication of his case to meet with many
who sympathize with his belief upon crema
ton. A Californian, named E. A. Willets.
has written to know if he may send the re-
mains of his little girl, aged six years, to
MI. Kirshner for cremation. He has been
instructed to send the body and the ashes
will be returned to him. Mr. Kirshner is an
enthusiastic cremationist, and he has in
formed his correspondent that if there is
any demand for crematories in California he
Will go and superintend their erection. He
says that IN his furnace four bodies can be
cremated at one time at cost of $3.50.

senator Doran spoke against the bill, claim
ing that the people were already ground down
with taxes, and that no additional expense
should be incurred, except upon the most ur-
gent necessity. Referring to the allusion by
Senator Gil6llan, to the so-called Ram

said he had had business relations with
tne ramsey county officials for twenty years
past, and he had always found their Offices con-
Quoted properly, and he had yet to hear Of a

rose, having acted upon twenty-six bills all
favorably except as above stated and the

WIIEjE rs THE EART1OUIKEe
The silver bill has gone to the House, and
the earth exists. Universal ruin had been
foretold, the country to be swallowed up and
SO on. The earthquake appears to have
been indefinitely postponed. No great re-
vulsion has taken place on Wall street, and
we are reliably informed that United States
securities have not been thrown out in
Europe. All this is truly wonderful. Mr..
Belmont's e-arranged funeral has turned
out wretched failure. The corpse was not
forthcoming. We greatly fear, that Mr.
Belmont will have to emigrate to Europe
the climate of America is not congenial, and
his mission to run the Democratic party in
the interests of the Rothschilds is decidedly
played-out.
AS for the people, like the soldier who
joined the army because he had nothing tc
lose, any change must necessarily be for the
better. There is depth beyond which it is
impossible to 60, and the country has al
ready reached that point. Now let the e.
sumption act be repealed, and the minis sci

perienco some relief-a relief rendered slow
and partially Intellectual by striking free

TIE SOUTHERN p011cT--s0 CALLED

1HESOUTHERN POLICT--SO C4iLLED.
We had always supposed that the South
efn policy of President Hayes was the result
OF his own convictions; that he had, Of his
own accord, announced beforehand these
convictions in his letter of acceptance in
June 1876, and that his treatment of the
South, since his acceptance, by means of the
8 to Commission, was dictated by his pre-
determined course on that subject.
The people, especially Democrats, and we
the whole South, have accorded to
Mr.. Hayes great credit for this policy. True,
Republicans have said, that Hayes did only
what Grant intended to do, as much as to say
that Hayes deserved no credit, because Grant
would have done likewise. Asked why Grant
delayed SO long, they answer, the time had
not come. Mr.. Hayes is more cordially
hated to-day by extreme Radi-
cal Republicans than Andy Johnson.
Read the denunciations of Garrison, Phillips,
Chandler and other Republican leaders. See
the GOODNESS of Conkling, Blaine, Butler and
Alexander Ramsey, all usually so warm
hearted, generous and unselfsh! Mark the
restlessness of Sherman, Garfield, Hale and
the "visiting statesmen What could any
President expect from such set, even, if
apparently harmonized? His only course
is to cut loose from them, to
to depend upon the great mass of the peo-
pie, to consult their interests, to promote the
general welfare, to uphold the rights of the
laboring classes, to see impartial justice done,
regardless of politicians OF political follow
ing, to confde in the people. This conf
dence would neither be misplaced nor be-
trayed. The people will never forsake the
man who sacrifices even himself to save his
country.

Senate.

But two measures were before the Senate
yesterday which excited any discussion. and
neither of these was disposed of. The first
was the proposed constitutional amendment
to allow women to vote upon the license
question, the same as that defeated at the
last election. The measure was introduced
by Senator Deuel., as he said, at the instance
OF q large number of ladies', and it was
backed by list of some thirteen hundred
from Winona, presented by Senator Drew,
while Senator Pillsbury announced petition
from his county of upwards of 5000 names,
sent to the House, praying the submission of
the question to vote. The present Senate
is decidedly moral and temperate body,
but it evidently was in doubt as to what it
should do in the matter, refusing either to
recommend it for passage or indefinite post
ponement. Whether the reason for this
lies in the sweeping character of the propo-
sition, which allows all women of the age
to vote, American or alien, or that, as sug-
gested by Senator Houlton that the PROPOSE
ton having been defeated last fall, it should
not be pressed again at this time, or whether
majority is opposed to it on general prin-
clples, but do not like to go upon the record
in opposition to the wishes of the dear crea-
lures, we know not, but certain it is the ac-
ton yesterday is conundrun.
The other subject of discussion was the
bill creating the Office of examiner, the duties
OF which are examinations of the books and
accounts of State institutions and officials.
The measure is pet Of Gov. Pillsbury, but
II few more vigorous protests like that of
Senator Doran's, yesterday, are made, the
Governor will have to wait for Legislative
endorsement. Sinecure Offices and the horde
OF office-holders, town, city, State and ma
tlonal, useful or otherwise, are the curse OF
the country, and any proposition to increase
them should be backed by impregnable rea-
sons to secure favorable action. The follow

entered Immediately upon trade in the
principal article the Indians could offer
in traiiic-furs and peltry. To profit by
this article of trade it was necessary to
preserve the Indians in the Country, with
rs little change of habits and pursuits as
possible, and maintain at least the friend
ship Of trade. Trading-post were rap
idly established, which became the points
of contact between the colonists and In

Montreal were scarcely begun before the
whole extent of Canada was dot ed with
trading posts, from Belle Isle to Lake
Superior, where Frenchmen, attached to
the posts as factors, clerks, laborers, and
voyagers, lived from year to year. These
posts became the homes of the Indians
and traders, and points of settlement,
where semi -civilizationw WAS established;
and the French mind, led by the Jealous
missionaries who always accompanied
the traders, moulded the civilization and
religion after the French idea. The short

They were adapted to the country as it
was, and did not require it to be changed
for their accomm odation; while they
constituted Il link between the new and
