ifthe sample OF provisions shown us were
bona fde, 1t were well to bring the matter
before the public. The Democrat says:
"The man Fisher, who was brought up
from Napoleon, charged with murder, is an
ugly fellow. He was continually creating
trouble in Jail, and organized movement
to break out. For several days before he
was taken home he saved up scraps of VIC
tuals and hid them in an old satchel, and
kept them until they spoiled and raised
fearful STENCIL The Sheriff discovered it
finally, and destroyed the garbage, but not
until after the wife OF Fisher had taken a
lot of the sour, spoiled stuff to Napoleon.
The stuff she took out was shown to the
Napoleon editors and they were gulled in
to publishing the above indecency."

Mortality In Different Pursuits.

The report of the British Registrar
General shows that the annual death
rate in the United Kingdom il about
one in forty-five Of the entire pOpula
ton. The larger, but not the largest,
cities lead III the rate Of mortality, and
the rural mainland districts occupy an
intermediate place between them and
| the insular districts, the extremes
varying by about 90 per cent. As be-
tween the three great classes into which
the population may be diyided-the Ia
boring, the trading and professional
classcs and the gentry and titled-the
chances Of life are very nearly equal, al
though slight advantage appears to be
shown in favor Of the first class. The
trades most uninvorable to long life are,
as II rule, those which tend 10 expose
