from the presidential vapors of cities,
be so subject to attacks )f malignant
diseases There is IA reason for 1T, and
we can point it ont. They arise from
indifference to the observance of by

health. and it is as necessary i'll the
country as in the city. A family liv-

CONCERNING CREMATION,

Cremation societies are to be found in
Copenhagen, in Paris, in Holland, Mi
Ian, Florence, Berlin, Dresden, London,
Rome, Rio Janeiro, New York, and st.
Louis. The one in Copenhagen had for
a time the prime minister as it's presi-
dent, and it included among it's 1900
members many Danish aristocrats.
Nevertheless, there have but a few. in
stances of cremation. The greatest
number, $50 has occurred at Milan, while
at Padua and Lodi there have been
twelve, and at Gotha twenty-five. In
this country there have been only four
teen cases. More professed cremation
lists have died than the whole number of
bodies cremated. The New York Sun
says society has been formed to
erect crematory upon some shady knoll
overlooking the Hudson River. The
plan is to put up two-story stone build
ing in the shape of chapel, with ar
for furnace room, an urn
room, a reception room, and other apart
ments. It is proposed to cremate bodies
for about SIS each, not by exposing
them to flames, but by means Of super
heated air, to be kept at a temperature
of 1900 degrees Fahrenheit. The body
is to be placed in winding sheet, satur-
rated with alum, and is then to be low
cred in a crib by an elevator to the hot
air chamber. In about an hour all that
remains is few pounds of pure ashes,
about 4 per cent. of the original weight.
These ashes will, Of course, be at the
of the relatives, and may be
placed in cinerary urn or terra Gotta
chest for preservation. The body of a
man weighing $50 pounds may thus be
reduced to six pounds of ashes, which
could be put in a space nine inches
square.

Acres of HuckIeberry Bushes.

The Kingston IN. Y. Freeman speaks
in glowing terms of the huckleberry bust
ness which is at it's height there now in
Ulster County, Although there are
many bushels of huckleberries picked on
High Point and mountains around Sho-
kan. Shawanpunks-A -A1ouuta;ar roaxzies the
palm. The top of Shawangunk Noun
tain is fairly swarmed with berry pickers
during the season Of the year, and there
are thousands and thousands of acres of
these berry bushes loaded with berries,
for huckleberries grow in astonishing
numbers. Oftentimes single stem, and
q short one at that, will contain several
hundred berries. The pickers, if they
understand their business, can pick
number of pals of berries day, and as
the price paid now even on top of the
mountain is as high as ten cents in some
places, the pickers can make good wages.
In former times there was very little sale
for huckleberries, and the pickers were
generally farmers families, who went up
and picked few pals of berries each
for what the farmers wives. called " doing
up," as part of the winter sweetmeat
stock. Butnow so opopular has become this
berry in New York city aud go easy the
means of transporting them that dealers
take their big wagons up in the noun
tains and in some cases have erected huts
where the pickers can stay all night, and
buy the berries, shipping them directly
to New York, where they getfrom fifteen
to twenty cents quart for them. It
does not therefore pay the pickers to re-
turn home at night, for it is usually a
long walk down the mountain, but they
take with them big basket of victuals
and stay on the mountain several days.

OUR WHITE-PINE SUPPLY.

The announcement made by authority
of government bureau, that the white
pine forests of the United States would
at the present rate of consumption fur
nish less than twelve years. supply of
that indispensable timber, although cop
led into most of the papers, has not re-
ceived the general attention which it de-
serves and probably will not until the
advancing cost of pine lumber brings the
lesson forcibly home to the public mind.
This advance, has, however, already be-
gun, the price of pine land in the great
timber-producing states have doubled
within few weeks, and the question of
the employm ent of some other material
for the coarser uses of building is ear
nestly discussed among architects and
contractors. On some accounts, states
the American Architect, the substitution
of hard wood for pine in the finishing
of houses would tend to promote their
solidity as well as their artistic interest,
both Of which are compromised by the
universal habit Of using hard wood only
in the form of veneers or castings upon
the grounds of cheaper material; but a
decided progress will have to be made in
the art Of seasoning and working the
timber of deciduous trees before it can
be used in large pieces in way to sat-
isfy those accustomed to the straight
ness, smoothness and unvarying charac-
ter OF pine. For framing, spruce and
hemlock, with white-wood in the south
ern and middle states, will probably
soon occupy the field entirely, and the
makers of laths and shingles will perhaps
transfer their industries to the forests of
hemlock or arbor-vits. For interior
finish, sash, oak, including many kinds
now rejected, chestnut, black birch,
walnut and elm, may be turned to good
account, while for exterior work the de-
ciduous varieties will probably be in
troduced before long, for the sake of
variety if not of economy, and with them
a style Of design different from that now
practiced, to which they are totally un-
sIlited.

ERYplian Affairs.

The news from the war in Egypt is unim-
portant, except that it relates to the prepar-
ations of the British for an aggressive move
ment. The most important report is that
Arabi's forces are threatening the suez Canal.
The Sultan of Turkey on the 18th, ordered
Arab Pasha and his followers in Egypt to lay
down their arms In case of his refusal, he will
ha left to he dealt uith. hy the Rri+i.A-~-
General Wolseley, the commaHdant of the
British forces in Egypt, has issued proclama-
object of the English is to restore the authority
of the khedive. He promises protection to the
property and persons of all the peaceful in
habitants.
Events of importance in the Egyptian cam
paign may now be expected at any time. After
a survey of the ground, Gen. Wolseley is un-
derstood to have determined upon making q
Egyptian city which the British are about to
attack by sea and land, preparatory to moving
against Arabi's forces, is located about fifteen
miles northeast of Alexandria. In lies in the
Bay of Aboukir, which is an inlet of the Medit-
erranean. Meanwhile the negotiations between
England and Turkey are at a standshi, and
are but little nearer satsfa ctory conclu-
sion than they were month ago.
English troops landed at Port Said on the
Goth, taking possession of the town and estab.
fishing the authority of the khedive. The
canal was closed to the merchant marine, not
withstauding the vigorous protest of De
Lesseps. An armored train was sent out in the
neighborhood of Arab Pasha's position but was
received by such an effective cannonade that il
returned. The Egyptians are strongly en-.
trenched.
Mr.. Long, the American consul at Alex,
andria, was attacked by a party Of natives on
the 10th. The attack was induced by what the
natives considered Longs handed manner
on a certain occasion when he rode over and
severely injured several Egyptians. They
characterize his conduct on that occasion az
outrageous, and assert that the best thing he
can do is to get out of Egypt, as if he remains
his life will surely be taken. Long denies the
outrage alleged by his assaiIants. The state de-
partment has received no notification of the
attack. Mr.. Long was not injured.

Another History of. Arab.

A leading journal of Madrid states
that the father of Arab, Pasha was q
maker of wooden cases in which dried
raisins were kept at Barcelona. Arab
was brought up to his fathers trade, &C.
cording to this account, but, manifesting
a love of reading, was sent to the Uni
versity of Valencia, where for four years
he studied law. But he abandoned his
legal studies and became q chorus singer.
After this escapade he was next heard Of
in Morocco in q regiment of lancers, in
which he had enlisted in 1859, and re.
ceived for his bravery three decorations
and q commission as lieutenant. Falling
in love after the evacuation Of Tetuan
with the daughter: of q rich Jewish mer-
chant, he deserted from the Spanish
army and took refuge on an English
merchant vessel, which was shipwrecked
in the Straits of Babel Mandeb. Arab
escaped, and after some wandering in
Abyssinia and Nubia, settled in Egypt,
became q Mohammedan, and studied the
Moslem law.

A Mean Advantage.

In the flush days of petroleum, when
thousands of gallons Of the stuff went
bubblng down the creeks because there
was no storage for it, stingy old Pit
holer who had been drilling away for
months suddenly tapped reservoir and
out came the oil at the rate of 200 bar
rels an hour. He had provided six
empty barrels for such a contingency,
and when these had been filled the dark
liquid cut it's way down the hillside in q
roaring torrent. No one had tanks or
barrels to spare, and the old man could
only tear his hair as he stood by and re-
allied that a fortune was ooziug away
from him. In the midst of his despair
he noticed a stranger filing pint bot
tie from the rushing stream. Hold
on-hold on, there !" he cried, as he ran
down the hill s'this oil belongs to

s' but where thousand barrels are going
to waste, You can spare me pint, can't

ShipWrecked Arctic Explorers Res

ShipVrecked Arctic Explorers Res
The steamer Hope, commanded by Sir Allen
Young, X. G. B., which left London in June
last in search Of the. crew of the Ezra, ar
rived at Peterhead with the entire crew of that
vessel, on the 20th. The Hope picked them up
in the Matotshkin Straits, Nova Zembla,
August 8, they having lost they ship off Franz
Josef Land and journeyed in boats to the
straits through the ice. Leigh Smith, COM
mander of the Ezra expedition, gives the fol-
lowing account OF it's experiences: "On July
13, 1881, we steamed through the pack ice, and
ten days days later sighted Franz Josef Land.
We proceeded towards Cape Ludlow, which
was close to the pack, to northward. August
2 we went up Nightingale Sound, and thence
to Ezra Harbor, and erected storehouse. On
the 10th we started east to look for the jean
nette, but were unable to pass Barents' Hook.
On August 81 the Ezra got nipped between the
land foe and pack ice, a milo east of Cape
Flora, and sank before we were able to save
many stores. We built hut on Cape Flora,
Of turf and stones. and covered it with sails.
Wewintered there, and during the whole time no
signs of scurvy appeared. Twenty-nine wa|rus
and thirty-six bears we're killen and eaten. We
left Cape Flora June 81, 1882, in four boats,
sailed eighty miles without seeing any ice and
reached Nova Zembla August 2. When the
Ezra was nipped the leak gained SO rapidly that
in two hours after it had been discovered it was
necessary to abandon the ship. Hardly had
the last man left the vessel when the ice eased
and the Ezra rapidly sank. A tent was first
erected on the Ice and the house was subse-
quently built"
