 The statistical bureau of the municipality of Paris has just issued the returns as to the population of the city and os the Department of the Seine at the end of 1886. These re- turns put the total population of the depart ment at 2,961 ,0S9, of whom 2,344, ,45O were resident in Paris itself. At the beginning of the century the total population of the Seine was only 631 1885, so that it is now more than four times larger than it was, increasing to 1,20O, ,000 in 1840 and to 2,400,00O in 1876. It has, therefore, increased by about 600, ,000 in the last ten years.

They bargain with tramps, beggars and such people for their defunct cArcasses, paying them therefor a sum sufficient to make their remaining days short and sweet. These fellows are preserved and pickled and then smoked till they are good limitations of the genuine mummy. Whole rows of these can be seen at smoke houses at once. When sufficiently dry they are wrapped in mummy cloth and sold to Americans chiefly, bringing high price.

Another sweet spirit has passed to the

was called to her final reward June %,
aged IL years. Soon after she was mar
ried to William Conaut she was convert
ed and received into the Congregational
church. About ten years later, at one of
the Silver Lake camp meetings, she re-
ceived the blessing of perfect love and
since that time her life has been a steady
light in the church to which she belonged
and the source of perpetual influence for
good. She was the Joy of her home as
wife and mother. She leaves husband
and two daughters to mourn her depar-
ture, but with the bright and glorious
hope of meeting her again where parting
shall be no more. Her religious expert
ence was clear and deep. She could tru-
ly say with the poet
Hove thee, dear Saviour; know not how
My transports to control;
Thy love is like burning fire
Within my very soul.
Her hope in Christ sustained her in the
hour OF trial. She trlumpnantly passed
over the river of death to receive hei
crown of eternal life. She was conscious
towards the last that she could not re-
cover, but she had no fear of death. Hell
last utterances voiced her experience
when she exclaimed, 1.-THE everlasting
arms are underneath me. 1t pays tC
