A rLEa FOR CREMATION.

/ Some peopla-yery worthy people, nc
dnubt-have been shocked by the recent
accounts Of the cremation of the body OF
the late Captain Hanham. For cllarity's
sake, we will respect their feelings, but
wo are utterly unable to understand their
argument to understand such method of
disposins of our dead From a sanitary
point Of view their objections are absurd,
and must be relegated to an age of dark
ness which we have happily passed. We
will do our best to direct their attention
to an important extract, which bears d.
rectly upon the question, and which is
taken from the reports Of Her Majestys
diplomatic and consular officers abroad
on subjects of general interest, presented
to both Houses Of Parliament this year.
The report is BY Mr.. Corbett of Rio de
Janeiro, and impodies the investigations
Of DR.. Freire on the subject Of yellow
fever. DR.. Freire states: II think it a
duty to diyplge as soon. as possible cir.
ccumstance of much Importance to the
public health. Having gone to visit the
Iurnluba cemetery, where those dying
in the maritime hospital at Santa Isabel
are inferred, | gathered from foot below |
the surface some of the earth gathered |
from the grave Of person who died |
about q year ago of yellow fever. On
examining small quantity with the
microscope, found myraids of microbii
exactly identical with those found in the
sxcreta Of persons sick with yellow fever.
These observations, which were verified
n all their details by my auxiliaries,
show that the germs of yellow fever per-
'etuate themselves in the cemeteries,
Shich are like so many nurseries for the
propagation of new generations destined
o devastate our city. A guinea pig,
whose blood examination showed that it

robbery, and Notwithstanding that he
confessed his crime, the jury brought in
verdict for manslaughtcr, and he was

that city. by which .murderes were let
loose upon the public, the people felt out
ragged and made an attempt at carrying

on the Jail with view of taking the
prisoner out and lynching, but they were
thwarted in their good intention, for by
the time the iron doors and bars of the iail
were broken down, the officers had sue. |

shipping him off on a train to the State
Prison. An attempt was made to set fire
to the Jail by rolling in barrel of coal
oil and lighting it, but the officers sue.
