Corn Above Wheat,

CHICAGO, Sept. Corn at 50 cents
and wheat at 10 cents was the anomoly
presented on change to-day.
Whether relative values of the cereals
aver before presented such strange con-
rast is not precisely known, but the
present condition of affairs is acknowl-
edged to be very unusual.
Early in to-day's trading there was a
strenuous effort made by short interest
TO cover their September sales, but there
were no adequate offerings until the
very pinnacle Of high prices was
touched, 50 cents. At these there were
offers to settle. The market then drop
ped off to 10, but rose again to 40, and
closed at that figure in the last dealings
of to-day.
Present high prices have apparently
killed Off all new speculation, very few
operators having the courage to create
any larger short interest than now
exists.
The extent of the deal appears. not to
be clearly understood, nor is it known
who the parties are that are i'm supreme
control of the market, but whoever they
may he, they have thus far demon-
strated their ability to retain complete
control and name any figures they
choose for the deliveries. The claim is
made that the short interest is still
sufficiently large to advance the
price to 81 per bushel if they
desire to do so. september corn
opened at y, rose k@l per cent. at Il
time until 80 cents was reached, when q
decline of / rent occurred, which was
the closing price on regular board and
also mt the afternoon session. October
rose 30, broke Off again, but closed
nearly at the best figures of the day.
November also advanced | cent, while
year and May showed little change.

four hours longer. I did not remain,
as there was nothing more of interest,
but 1 learned on inquiry that alter the
fire was burned out it was the custom tc
collect the fragments Of bone which re.
ma ned and put them in terra-cotta
vase, which was kept under the care OF
the family.
The modes of disposing of the dead
are many and curious. The Hindoos,
for instance, expose their dead on the
banks of the Gauges and the Hooghly
to be carried away by alligators. The
Parsees expose their bodies upon high
gratings to fee | the birds of prey.
Vertz advocates burial at "a and pict-
ures the ''dead ship daily departing
from the strand with its liieless
burden, and re erently and prayer
fully comm tting the bodies to
the deep" Tn. only people, it ap-
pears, who practice sea burial are the
Aborigines of the Chatham Islands.
When fisherman there departs this
life they put baited rod in his hand,
and. after lashing him fast in a boat,
send HIM adrift to sea. According to
Mr.. Eassie, a method of petrefaction has
been preached, but has met with no
success. The system pursued by the
ancient Peruyians was ingenious and
apparently effective. 1t consisted OF
piling up coffins of plaster in pyramid
fashion. One carefully examined.
measured over $500, 900 cubic feet, and
was one mass of half-mumified bodies.
For burial in the earth the most con-
sistent advocates are the Chinese. Then
there is embalmment. and an analo-
gous process which consists of drying
up the BODY and then interring it. A
tribe in South Austria ia place Their de-
ceased in a sitting posture near the top
of the hut, and keep up the fire until 1t
is dry, when they proceed to bandage
it, eventually hiding it away in the
branches of trees.
The following compilation from a
burial service of the Brahmins. who are
the priests of all the other castles OF
Hindoos that burn their dead, may
prove interesting to the reader. 1t is
extracted from the sacred Anthology"
. Earth, to thee we commend our
brother: of thee he was formed, by thee
he was sustained, and unto thee he now
returns.
q Fire! thou hadst a claim on our
brother during life; he subsisted by thy
influence in nature; to thee we commit
his body, thou emblem of purity; may
his spirit be purified on entering lew
state OF existence.
o Air, while the breath of life CON
tinued our brother respired by thee, his
last breath is now departed; to thee we
yield him.
Water! thou didst contribute to the
life of our brother: thou vert one of his
sustaining elements: his remains are
now dispersed: receive thy snare OF
him who has taken an everlasting flight.
