Cremation tn War Time-Dtscovery of
 PofsOn-French Conservatism-Lack of
 Burial Grounds.
 From the Pail Mall Gazette.I
 The advocates of cremation who have been calculating confidently upon the impetus that the cholera would give to the movement against existing methods of disposing of the dead will be much surprised by the report which has just been presented on the subject to the Council of Public Health for the de- partment of the Seine. The reporter-M. Brouardel-was specially instructed to report on the advisabiIity of substituting cremation for burial in the case of epidemics, and he, has reported emphatically against the pro- ject. Cremation, he thinks, especially dur ing an outbreak of cholera, would be fraught with danger to the interests of justice. In other words, weuld-be murderers, taking ad vantage of the prevalence of the epidemic, would administer poisons calculated to pro- yoke symptoms resembling an attack of chol- era, and count confidently upon the destruc- ton of the last trace of their crime in the process of cremation. Before admitting the force of this objection it would be necessary cholera epidemic have ever been the sub ject even of 2 post-mortem examination, much less of exhumation for the purpose of searching for the presence of poison. If, as we believe, statistics prove that the percent age of such exhumations is infinitesimal, then M. BrouardePs conclusions may be dis missed as based upon inadequate foundations. The discovery said to have been made by Brazilian physician as to the ability of yell low fever germs to survive the death of the patient, and to fill with poisonous vitality the earth of the cemetery, is likely to do much more to affect the popularity of cre- nation than M. BroaardeI's forebodings to its influence on the administration of jus tice. The soil in yellow fever cemetery, 1t is stated, has been found to teem with germs similar to those found in the bodies of the victims buried below. Guinea pigs fed on grass grown in such cemeteries die of yellow fever, and the inference is drawn that it is quite possible for the victims of an epidemic to convert the place where they are buried into vast breeding ground for contagion. IT this should be demonstrated conclusiveiy, no fear of the escape of chance murderer here and there wifi be likely to deter man. kind from consigning the corpses of those who die of cholera or yellow fever to the purifying element which alone can destroy the existence of the germ.
 Cremation has been much more generally employed on large scale of late years than most people believe. When the Belgian chemist M. Creteur was charged with the purifcation of the battle field of Sedan. he was compelled to resort to cremation in or der to dispose of the heaps of half covered bodies which had been left in the open field. After disposing of the corpses in this man.

A Curious Experience

''One of the most curious experiences tha ever befell me-" writes an English govern ment official, twas when I was Governor O. jail in Lancashire. Of course the mos ignorant, as well as the most degraded came my way One of them was woman of sixty 8 murderess. The chaplain could do nothing with her-he very seldom can with those who are condemned to death they have something else to listen to besides mere words. Days and even weeks, before tim. Der is raised or nail has been driven in they hear the gallows being put up. This poor creature, however, was not troubled in that way: she had not the imagination for it. She had not even the instinctive foretaste of her fate that the dumb animal feels on the threshold of the slaughter house. There was no goodbye to make, for she had neither relative nor friend in the world; the world she was to leave on Monday. On Sunday night she sent for me. It had been a pour ing day, as most November days in Lan- cashire are, and as I entered her cell the sound of the rain upon the roof heightened the melancholy effect of the scene to an extraordinary degree. To those who knew the circumstances of the case she was scarcely an object of pity, for the murder she had committed was most brutal and appalling one but it was impossible to behold her without sharing her wretchedness. She was standing under the barred black window with
 
 to the splash of the storm, but she turned quickly round as came in and faced me. 'Guv'nor, she said, is it true that am to be hung to morrow? It was not easy to reply to such a question in words. and I only inclined my head grayely. Is it far from here-I mean the gallows?' About fifty yards directly in front of the gaol gates. Aye, aye; mind the place well I saw John Norris hung there when was young gal Then one will walk to it, won't one?' There was touch of disappointment in her tone which I could not understand, though l guessed the reason of it afterwards. Yes, we shall all walk Very good I've been thinking of summat as I should like to do. Will you grant me a last favor, Guv'nor?' l told her, of course, that anything that lay in my power, and which my duty permitted me to do, would be done for her. Well, to- morrow will be wet, you see, that's certain. Now, never in all my life has it happened to me to walk under silk umbrella. Will you let me do it just this once? I gave her, of course, the required assurance, and her varders reported afterwards that she went to bed in good spirits and passed an excellent night. Her first words on being awakened in the morning were to inquire if it rained, and, on being informed that it did, she ex- pressed her satisfaction. The rest of the sad ceremony seemed to interest her very little, but never shall I forget how her dull, hard face frightened up at the sight of the new silk umbrella that was presented to her. She held it over her head to the gallows' foot, with hand which, if it trembled at all, did so with conscious pride.n

 MT. Young, United States Minister to China, sends the following information to the government concerning the vexed ques- tion of the population of the celestial em- pire: have been informed indirectly, but from official sources, that the census of China, as taken last year for purposes of tax ation, shows a total population of 255, oO0,. 00O This does not include the Mongolian or other outlying dependencies of the empire, but only the eighteen provinces of China proper; nor does it embrace the aboriginal tribes which exist In very considerable num- bers in the Island of Formosa and the prov inces of Kuangsi. Yunnan. Kneichow, and Szchnan Making due allowance for under statements due to the purpose for which the census was taken, for the aboriginal tribes mentioned above, and for the Mongolian de- pendenciss, which are really an integral part of the empire, it is probable that the sum total of the population of China really ex- ceeds 300, OOo, ,OOo.
 Judge Donahue, of the Supreme court of New York, has made this statement about divorces in New York: "Yes, there is un- doubtedly fraud in many divorce cases, and what mean by that is that the business of obtaining divorces by questionable means has not been suppressed, notwithstanding the ex tra vigilance to detect it now exercised by the courts But fraud cannot be overcome 50 long the justices are powsrless to trace it and have the guilty ones punished. I myself have either suspected or been convinced in a number of cases that fraud had been practiced, yet was unable to obtain conclusive evidence to that effect, and the conspirators thus escaped the punishment the law prescribes and which they merited." TheSHerald very properly calls upon the Bar association of the city of New York to pay some attention to this statement. It is well understood that there are number of un- scrupulous divorce lawyers in New York city.
 If the records are correctly kept the Uni ted States is very healthy place. For sev- eral years past the average death rate in this country has been but little above fifteen per 1000 of population. This is remarkable showing as compared with other countries. Taking the general average of ten countries in Europe the rate is 23 per 1000. In Eng land and Wales it is twenty-two per 1000, in France twenty-four per 1000. Sweden and Denmark twenty per 1000, Austria thirty one, Prussia twenty seven, Spain twenty nine and Italy thirty. In the largest cities of this country the death rate is little over twenty-one per 1000. New Orleans and Memphis are the unhealthiest cities, their deaths averaging for several years past twen- ty-seven per ,O00. New York comes next with twenty-six per 1000, Brooklyn and Boston rate twenty-three per LOGO. Balti more and Philadelphia twenty, St. Louis nineteen, Cincinnati and Atlanta eighteen, and Chicago and Louisville seventeen. Day ton, O., has the lowest rate among the cities, having less than fifteen to 1000.
