Cremation i'm England.

There has been, as most people know, an active and zealous cremation society in Eng land for some years, and this society has just issued it's first transactions" These contain 8 conspectus of the movement in favor of the substitution of burning for burial in the diff ferent European countries. In England the objection raised to the Working Crematorium has somewhat checked the action of the socie- ty, though it's Council anticipates a speedy use for that building. Abroad cremation is frequent enough. Italy has been particularly forward in the adoption of the practice, and more than one municipal body has formally approved of 1t, while regular crematory ex- ists at Milan. In Germany, Gotha has for some time been resort of those who wish to dispose of their relatives in this fashion, and elsewhere in the Empire the practice appears to be allowed, if not very widely adopted The Zurich Society consists of 400 enthuslastic members. In Holland the advocates of ere nation have not yet obtained legal sanction, but are eagerly seeking it, and the same IS the case in Belgium America already cremates, while France, almost alone of important countries. seems to have hitherto proved somewhat insensible to the efforts of the inno- yators A cremation society was projected there, but in some mysterious way 1t was made political and fell through. The report is. of oourss, like all such reports, sanguine one. A good deal, however, has yet to be done before cremation is anything but crotchet and an exception. Generally speak ing, we believe public opinion in England is somewhat against it. The legal difficulties are obvious and considerable; the sentimental objections where they exist at all, are strong, and the same may be said of the religious ob- jections, though these are by no means uni versal. Enthusiasm, however, seems to be- the note of cremationists in England as well as in Zurich, and enthusiasm does much in this world

There is no mystery about the ''prefsren- ees'' of the delegates to Chicago from Califor- nia Having instructed for Nr. Blaine the convention proceeded to make the instruc- tions biading by taking the personal pledge of those delegates to the national convention who were present and arranging that those who were not present should not receive their credentials until they had given a similar pledge to the State central committee. This course was probably resorted to in view of the assertions which have been freely made that some members of the New York and Pennsylvania delegations would not regard the instructions of their respective State con ventions as binding upon them.

Major General Heintzslman, who died in
 Washington Saturday at the advanced age of sevsnty-fve years, graduated at West Point in 1926. He saw service in the Florida war in 1885, in the war with Mexico in 1847, and af- ter the Mexican war served in the Pacific de partnsnt for a number of years. At the be- ginning of the war of the rebellion General Heintz.lman led the first Union troops across the Potomac and was wounded in the right arm at the first battle of Bull Run. Iu the Peninsular campaign he commanded the Third Army Corps under General Mcclellan was engaged at the siege of Yorktown, the battle of Williamsburg, Fair Oaks and the seven days fight, and was with General Pope at the second battle of Bull Run. He afterwards commanded the dsfenoss of Washington. At the close of the war General Eeintzslman was assigned to the command of the Department of the Northwsss, headquarters in Columbus, Ohio, and aftsrwaFds commanded in Texas. The Congress of tha United States, upon this long and honorable record, passed a special act retiring Gs neral Heintzslman from active servios with the rank of major general. He was an honest man and brave soldier.

The Boston Traveller claims that there are
 four Grant men among the delegates from
 Massachusetts thus far chosen, and ''Temple- l ton" is inclined to think the Traveller right.
 He also fears that the delegation from the Fifth district was the only out -and-out Ed 1 mands delegation that had then been elected | since the State convention. Of the action of
 ths Massachusetts delegation at Chicago he l says: Ut is probable that tho full delegation | from Massachusetts can be held to vote for Ed munda on the firEt ballot. The pinch will come if Edmuuds shall be abandoned, aad there are men in it who won't care how soon this aban- doning takes placs. Then if they can safely slip away to Grant, or even to Blaine, they will do il, for they prefer ons or the other of these candidates to Edmunds, Sherman, Washburne or anybody else. The restraining power to keep theEn straight is tho opinion of the people at home, and in thas point of view, the extraordinary ansi-Grant aud anti BisiRs exhibitions made all over Mas sachusstts in the last few weeks will be very important. The prspondarancs of sen timsst iz this way is much stronger than it waA for Bristsw four years ago, when, as MT. Blaine complains, Massachusetts lost him the prize that was almost within his grasp" If Edmunds is abandoned Blaine, at least, is not likely to get much help from Massachu setts.

Last week the decoration of the graves of Confederate dead took place at Columbus, Geergia. The Enquirer of that city says of the ceremony ''It demonstrated that the love and reverence for the menory of the Confed crate dead slews az warm and pure as ever in the hearts of Southern men and women. 4 Then, too, the Confederate colors were displayed near the Confederate monument. The vindiciivs may howl and misrspresent if they wish. The flag adopted by the Con- fedsra.s Congress in February, 1865, was flung to the breeze from the same cord from which was suspended the Stars and Stripes and the banner of Geor gia. They are all our standards. If the poli- ticieas desire further to sroan and make cspi- tai, we may tell them the conquered banner foated as proudly as those of the Union and our own Commonwealth, and that the rebels were well pleased. If aoms conservative Northern Democrats should feel horribly shocked, they might as well bs informed that 1t was our memorial day, in honor of the Southsrn dead, and our people thought the display just what 1t ought to have been. If such acts affect their votes in the Presidential campaign, they should reflect that they are more interested in winning than the South is, and we can stand Republican Executive with as much squaninity and satisfaction. We are becoming very indifferent as to sec- tional criticism"

stimulate where they once depleted because of change in the human system, which
 makes it more difficult to rally from disease
 than in the preceding generations. Acute
 diseases, like pneumonia and diphthsria, are,
 according othis authority, increasing, and in-
 crsasingly fatal also, says the Doctor, the
 same reports como from uncivilizsd lands,
 from Africa and Asia, as well as from Europe,
 50 that we cannot charge the change upon the
 enfesbling luxuries of the present domestic
 life. The Doctors theory is that as there
 must be universal cause for universal evil,
 there must be some agency unknown to us,
 whether atmospheric or planetary, which has
 gradually but surely lowered everywhere the tone of the human system, and made it more difficult than of old to rally from acute dis ease. Charge it to malaria.
 As the Washington monument, when it is finished, bids fair to be quite as old as most of the existing obelisks are now, it is gratifying to learn, as we do from such geod authority as the Hon. George P. Marsh, minister to Rome, that the normal proportions of the true obe- fisk have been nearly observed in it.
 1s nnefs oniY twO Polnss so crisiciss, n3meiy: that the batter (the inward slops) is more rapid than in the genuine obslisk, and the form of the proposed pyrAmidion. which he thinks should have a height of not less than fifty feet. Tho latter point is no longer valid, as the latest plans of the engineer show that this change has been made in accordance with Mr. Marsh's suggestion. The first point he himself admits is non essential and that the plan strengthens the work. According to Mir. Marsh, therefore, when the great work is con- pletsd, the nation will have a grand monu- ment, both unique and artistic. The present structure is 156 feet in height. The finished work will rise to $50 feet, which includes the pyramidion, or roof, of iron, fifty feet in height.
