Life in Ocean Abysses.

DR.. Regnard has raised the question
as to whether corpse which sinks to a
very great depth is preserved indefin.
itely or otherwise from putrefaction.
According to his researches, published
in the archives of the Biological Society
Of Paris, putrefaction does not take
place in decomposable substances sub
mitted to pressure OF 600 or 700 at
mospheres These figures correspond
to depth Of 5000 or 1000 meters at
sea. From these experiments it must
not be concluded, according to DR..
Regnard. that there is total absence
OF putrefaction in the greater depths OF
the sea. The curious ''abysmal" fishes
discovered in the Challenger and other
expeditions appear to rise after death,
SO that they are sometimes found on.
the surface, though, as rule, they 60 to
pieces, as the surrounding pressure di'
minishes long before they reach the air.
Still, there is no proof that bathy bial OF
abysmal micro-organisms do not exist
and. If SO, they could cause deoomposi
ton in the corpses OF men as well as in
the dead bodies of abysmal fishes. The
question is Of considerable medico-legal
and yet greater biological interest and
it is far from settled.-British Medical

The Emperor Napoleon very rarely
wrote . letter by his own hand, and
those few which do exist are mostly in
Italian. He usually dictated to secre-

love letters to Josephine were thus
dictated.

SCHOOL AND CHURCH.


The oldest college dormitory in the
United States is the one known as South
Middle at Yale. 1t was erected in 1852.
Boston has now thirty Congregs-
tional, twenty-eight Baptist and TWEEN
ty-seven Episcopal churches.
"A meeting Of members of the United
and Reformed Presbyterian churches
was held recently in Pittsburgh, at
which q committee was appointed to
urge the union of these two branches be-
fore the higher courts of both churches.
The voluntary contributions for the
support of the Anglican schools OF En-
gland amounted to over $4,000, 600 in
the period between 1870 and 1888.
Diocesan inspectors class the Anglican
schools thus: Excellent, 1889; fair,
1851; Indifferent 2s4
1t has been the custom at Yale
when assisting needy students to give
help irrespective Of scholarship stand
ing. Tho faculty have now concluded
that assistance will be more worthily
bestowed If given to no students falling
below the second Of the four scholarship
division Of the several classes.
Mrs Gore Cuthbert has successfully

The statistics of New England col.
leges given out recently by the Young
Mems Christian Association at its meet
ing at Middletown, Conn, show that
Williams College has the largest per-
centage of church members in attend
ance next to Wesleyan and Middlebury.
Out Of three hundred and ten mon, two
hundred and eighteen are members OF
the church, and over forty are training
for the Christian ministry.
The attendance at Board schools, as
the public non-sectarian schools OF En-
gland are called, has increased in six
teen years from SIPS to 1878, oOe. The
attendance at Church schools has also
increased in the same period, but in no
such proportion. The Church Of En-
gland schools report an attendance OF
1864, orc, which is larger by about 2se,
600 than that of the Board schools; Dis
senting schools (Protestsnt), 8s4, 799, an
increase of upward Of $4,000; Dissent
ing schools (Roman Catholic), 1oS, Os6,
an increase Of more than los, 900.
An official report shows that there
are 2S3 Indian schools in the Dominion.
OF this number 81 are managed by the
Church of England, so Roman Catholic,
SO Methodist, 10 Presbyterian and l6un-
UNCONVENTIONAL. The funds for their
support are divided as follows: Roman
Catholics, 1857, 800; Church Of England,
s1s6, 761; Presbyterians, $50, 439; monde
nominational, ISL, Gal; Methodists, SCI,
Sal; total. 1914 s5. The Church Of En-
gland, the Presbyterian church and the
Methodist church supplemented the
government grant quite materially, but
the Catholic church Is not known to
make any expenditure for the schools.

TRUE DEMOCRACY.

HERE is democracy of the truest
type, found in the close OF a great
speech made by Roger @. Mills,
lately in New York.
Jefferson sleeps, but the princi-
Piles he proclaimed still live. From
the day he entered the House OF
Burgesses to the day that he enter
ed that narrow house on the mount
Of Monticello, by all his acts and
utterances ne dedicated this land
to liberty and selt-government as
the means of preserving it. Not t.
liberty in some things and at some
times, but liberty in all things and
among all colQrs, and nationalities
of all men; liberty from the further
est point in the frozen zones of the
North to the furtherest point of per-
petual summer of the South f.; liberty
from ocean to ocean and from earth
to skies ; liberty to live and liberty
to pursue our own happiness in our
own way (; liberty to work and lib
erty to sell the produce of our labor
when and where We please liberty
to buy, liberty to eat and drink and
wear the things We buy or make
liberty to think and liberty to utter
what we think. In one word, this
land has been consecrated, purified
and set part as the home of free peo-
pie, and If we are but true to our.
selves and true to the precepts of
our fathers we will continue to grow
in prosperity and hand down unim>
paired the priceless heritage to our
children and our children's chill
dren in all the generations to COME"

GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.

THERE are about 500 bills before
the Georgia House, to be disposed
of before that body can adjourn.
By unanimous consent of the
house the following bill was intro
duced by Sibley OF Cobb: To pro-
vide that all prisoners convicted Of
telonies, the penalties for which is
less than FIVE years, shall be sentenc-
ed to the chain gangs of counties
where they are convicted.
The Atlanta Constitution of Fri
day morning says: A bill to estab-
lish board of police commissioners
for the city OF Rome came up and
"Mr. Sibley of Cobb made an able
in favor of the bill, and
exhibited some remarkable oratori-
cal powers, which have so long been
dormant shat his friends were sur
prised, not to say dumfounded, at
the able and admirable way in which
he handled the question: % Mr..
Sibley STATED that he was one man
who had never taken drink of
whisky, nor temperance pledge in
his life." He discussed the bill at
length.
