LONDON, May l7th.-The final installment
OF the Granville-De GicrS dispatches on the
Afghan dispute will be issued during the
Whitsunday recess of Parliament. The
Conservatives vii! postpone parliamentary
action until all the papers are presented.
The publication of the first dispatches en-
crosses the attention of the political clubs.
The dominant feeling among the Liberals
is that Earl GranvillcS conduct with re
spect to the negotiations was weak, and
that he failed to perceive NJ. De Giers in
tentions until news was received of the
seizure of Penideh by the Russians. The
Liberal paper, the OdScrrG, says: The
dispatches chiefly show the cynical humor
with which Russia pursued her aggres-
ions On Parliament reSuming, Right Hon.
Robert BOurke, in the House of Commons,
and the Marquis of Salisbury, in the House
of Lords, will propose vote of censure
against the Government The intention is
to make the debate the last party demon
stration before the close of Parliament.
\ SUGGESTION or FURTHER TROUBLE.
LONDoS, May 17th.-A suggestion Of
further difficulty with Russia is furnished
by report to the effect that the Russian
Government has demanded and obtained
from Persia the release Of Ayoub Kahn.
This veteran intriguer and former Ameer
OF Atghanistan, was arrested early last
month by the Shah, at the solicita-
ton of the British Consul at Tehe-
ran, who had information that
Ayoub was about to be employed
by Russia 10 ferment a rising against
Ameer t.bdurrahman, with a view to
Ayoub's ultimately occupying the throne
as a Russian tool. Ayoub has been de-
tanned as a semi-priSoner at Teheran since
April 18th, Notwithstanding one or two
mild protests by Russia To-night's re-
port indicates that Russia has got tired of
protesting.

cisco press agree in pronouncing as start
ling. Yet there is nothing new, absolutely
nothing, in either of these reports. The
moral criminality to the living OF burying
the dead has been demonstrated over and
over again. If sanitary science has proven
beyond possibility of denial any single
proposition, it is that burial of the dead
contaminates the earth and the air. es-
tablishes breeding spots Of disease and
propagates pestilence. The city of San
Francisco not long ago refused the First
Cremation Society of that place the privi-
lege of cremating the dead, and fatty told
the members that they must bury the
bodies of their loved ones, to rot and putri-
fly and contaminate This same city shortly
after required dead animals rot used for
food 10 be cremated, and is now wrest-
ling with an ordinance to cremate all
garbage Precisely the same argu-
ments that are used against burying
the dead body of horse, apply-only with
greater force-to the case of the dead body
of a man. Few horses die of disease pes
thence is rare among horses; but most
men die of disease, and pestilence in some
form is common among men. The seeds OF
disease remain in the body, and burial aids
their propagation The rains on Il Gene
terry watershed penetrate the soil, filtrate
through the porous earth to a great depth,
reach underlying water strata and carry
with them the foulness they encounter en-
route Hence it is that for all time people
have been warned not to drink from streams
and pools lying below and adjacent tc
burial places, OF to Use water in the wells
or springs of cemeteries The alarm
now felt in San Francisco will do much tc
advance the sentiment in favor of che ere
nation society. 1t was an absurd ruling
that was made against it by the local Board
of Health, that cremation is not lawful
If the society will test the matter, ii will
find that it is as lawful to cremate as tc
bury, more lawful to erect crematory
than a vault as justifable to practice in
cineration as embalming; and that, in fact
the law does not prohibit respectful and
decent disposal of the dead by means OF
cremation.
