willism Kinnear in North American Review.
We cannot defy death. But we may, by
searching. find certain secrets Of nature
and apply them to the renewal of the
organs whose decay is constantly going
on in the body. Anatomical experiment
and investigation show that the chief
characteristics Of old age are deposits
of earthly matter OF gelatinous and
fibrinous character in the human system.
Carbonate and phosphate of lime, mixed
with other salts Of calcareous nature.
have been found to furnish the greater part
of these earthly deposits. As observation
shows, man begins in q gelatinous condi-
ton; he ends in an osseous or bony one
soft In infancy, hard in old age. By gradual
change in the long space Of years the
ossitication comes on; but after passing
middle life a more marked development of
the ossitc character takes place. OF course
these earthly deposits which affect all the
physical organs naturally interfere with
their functions. Partial ossification OF
the heart produces the imperfect circula-
ton of the blood which affects the aged.
When the arteries are clogged with calea-
reous matter there is interference with the
circulation, upon which nutrition depends.
Without nutrition there is no repair
of the body. Hence in his WORK.
THE Physiology OF Common Life" &. II.
Lewes states that ''if the repair were al
ways identical with the waste, life would
only then be terminated by accident, never
BY old age" Both Bichat and Ba,lie con-
sidered tina. the greater number of people
past 90 suffer more or less from arterial
Justification, which brings about obstruc-
tons in the proper and healthy circula-
ton OF the blood.

manufacturer In regard 10 the American
market The ocean, which many arc still
apt 70 consider a. . barrier between the
two countries, 10 the very agency which
brings them 20 close and will ulti-
masaly bind them together. Coal.
iron. steel and all kinds OF mer-
chandise from Britain reach American
ports more cheaply than American
manufactures produced within q hun
dred miles Of these parts. Thus the coal,
iron and steel from Glasgow. Hull, New
castle or Liverpool, reach the cities Of New
Orleans, Charleston, Savannah, Rich
mond. Baltimore. Philadelphia. New York,
Boston and Portland moro cheapiy than
the same articles mined or manufactured
in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Tennessee or Ala
bama-the land carriage from these states
being far greater than the ocean carriage
from Great Britain. To the whole Pacific
coast Britain is so much nearer in cost as
to give her under reunion the complete
command of that market. In the event OF
reunion the American manufacturers
would supply the interior of the country,
but the great populations skirting the At
lantic seaboard and the Pacific coast
would receive their manufactured articles
chiefly from Britain. The heavy products
are taken from Britain to the United
States in many instances as ballast for
nothing. The freight charge is generally
trilling. do not hesitate to say that re-
union would bring with it such demand for
British products as would tax the present
capacity OF Britain to the utmost, for the
products of Continental nations. which
now compete go seriously with Britain,
would be almost excluded even BY tariff
strictly for revenue There would not be
an idle mine, furnace or factory IN the
land. The consumption OF coal In the
United States is already greater than in
Britain: of iron and steel it is now
fully double. Our consumption OF tin
plate exceeds that OF all the rest Of the
world. The imports Of British textile fab
RIGS grow year after year. These never
were so great a. at present. The only ma
ton which is taking more and more Of
British products is the republic. The
American market is enormous and con-
s;ant.y expanding. 1t is vain that people
in Britain hope for any radical change in
the tariff laws. No party in the United
States can or will make any material
changes in these. Revenue will continue to
be raised by duties upon imports as ut
present and chiefly upon tho fine textile
fabrics-the luxuries of the rich. There
can be little question that nothing would
SO certainly insure the permanent pros
perity of Britain as tree access to the
American market, which can be effected
so easily through reunion, which would
also bring with it enhanced value to land
as the result of prosperity in all branches
OF British trade and industry; and were
Britain and America again one the Amer
lean would find the former the best sum-
mer home within his reach.

VIRGINIA. MIMI, June 19.-The gross
loss from the fire yesterday is not less than
ST. Oc. 600 and the insurance is estimated
at 100000. There is no positive
evidence OF any persons having per-
ished in the flames. but some bones
were discovered in the ruins, which
several people thought were the remains
of a woman. Not single one Of tho lead
ing business houses remains, and in the
residence portion not a building is left
standing. Between the railroad tracks
and western limit Of the town only thirty
bull dings are left standing. OF forty-two
saloons. all but three are burned and these
have been closed by order of the mayor.
At the Commodore and Franklin mines
the engine houses and offices were burned.
and also those at the Ohuo and Mesaba
Mountain mine. The Burgess camp was
totally destroyed, and at the Jones and
Rouchel mines all the improvements were
consumed. AT the New England mine
the boarding camp vas burned and tents
and provisions were brought from grading
camps. The Mesaba train that arrived at
noon also had liberal supply Of provis-
ions on board, but they were barely ade-
quate for the day and must necessarily
be followed by further aid. A meeting Of
citizens Of Virginia was held this after
noon and committee of seven appointed
TO receive supplies and distribute them.
No details OF the fire at Merritt have been
received. but il is statsd that two.thirds Of
the town was destroyed. At Iron Noun
tain only two or three. dwellings and the
depot were burned. The only building de-
stroyed at Blwabix was the depot.
DULUTH. June ia train bearing desti-
tute refugees from the ire in the mining
town OF Virginia, numbering $50, mostly
women and children, arrived here this
morning. They were almost starved and
were at once supplied with food. They
report that the houses burned like finder
and the whole town was in ruins inside
of an hour. All the way here the train
came through lake Of forest fire.
Another train load of about 30 arrived
from the burned-out town of Mesaba at
noon. and the reported fatalities were not
confirmed. Two actors. who went back
into the burning theaier. have no. since
been seen, and a woman who tried 10 res
