Total Loss of Memory.

A very curious instance of those SUE
den and total losses of memory which
raise such perpleXing and appalling
problems as to the nature of the person
atty of man is reported this week from
Brighton. While sitting on the sea front
a woman felt something break in her
head. She thereupOn became unable to
tell her name, address or anything con
nected with her past life. She is at pres
ent in the Brighton workhouse, her con-
tinual cry being, ooh, shall l get my
memory again:'' Her clothing does not
contain a single mark or initial whereby
she might be identified. She is respect
ably dressed woman, apparently fairly
we'll to do The following is her descrip-
ton: Age about Sc; dressed neatly i'll
black; appears to be nurse or compan-
ion; we'll educated; wears a wedding
ring.
We hold, and it seems to US are bound
to hold that the notion of life beyond
the grave which will not be endowed
with memory of this life is tantamount
to annihilation. But if the state Of this
poor woman is permanent, then she has
already suffered sort of annihilation
though of course death may revive her
lost faculty. Still, if she goes on living
she will III effect be another person, and
how are these two personalities to be
linked and reconciled? In truth, the
whole thing is one of the most soul shals
ing of mysteries. London Spectator.

CALEDONIA COUNTY.
LyndOnVille.

Joseph burlington of Lyndon was found
frozen to death last Sunday morning in
CYRUS Deos' field in South Wheelock ten
or fifteen rods from Elias Aldrich's house.
He was on his way from his home in Lyn-
don to Elias Aldrich's house with ak and
yaIise, to chop some cedar posts for Mr..
Aldrich and stopped at c. G. MONEYS to
take dinner, leaving there about two
O'Clock in the afternoon last Saturday, and
that was the last ever seen of him alive. 1t
was supposed that he was in his usual
health when he left Mr.. MONEYS house.
1t was only about three-fourths of mile
from Mr.. MONEYS to Mr.. Aldrich's across
the field and that was the way he went. 1t
is supposed that it was heart failure that
caused his death for he never moved from
the spot where he fell. Mr.. Burlington
was "a years of age and had resided in Lyn-
don all his life, being highly respected by
all who knew him. The funeral was held
at the home of his son, George, in the
Mount Hunger district on Jan.7.-Journal.

Ii this low estimate of the translator's

On cheek, and lip and eye.

We watched with aching heart,
And all that love could do was done
To stay the uplifted dart.

The latest advices from Havana in
dictate the end of the Cuban revolu-
ton. The insurgent army is within
sight of the Cuban capital and the city
seems doomed to fall. With the fall
of Havana Spanish supremacy in the
West Indies will be ended and the
United States will be under the neces
sity of taking some action in view of
the changed condition OF affairs. That
action should take the form Of recog-
milton of the insurgents belligerent
rights, a recognition which was de-
manded by insurgent successes long
ago. The steady march of the insur-
gent army westward and the narrow
ing limits within which the Spanish
troops have been bound long ago gave
the natives control of the greater por-
ton Of the island and on every ground
which could be numerically consider
ed the status of the insurgents was
made permanent. The fall Of Havana
can only confirm what is already won
in behalf Of human freedom and the
United States can find little excuse in
the conservatism which waits for the
seizure of the capital before accord
ing the Cuban republic the recogni-
ton it's valorous successes demand

tuberculosis has made itself felt to
a serious extent in the dairy herd
owned by Congressman Circuit. About
Thanksgiving time DR.. Geo. Wizard,
veterinary, made test and detected
symptoms of this dreaded disease.
He at once notified the state authOri-
ties and Gen. Grout, who was at
Washington, and last week the final
test was made, and, the state com
missioner being present, "a out of a
herd of As COWS were condemned and
slaughtered.
Gen. Grout will receive from the
state one half the appraised value Of
each condemned animal, but he suf-
fers quite a loss in the summary re-
duction of his dairy herd from 45 to II
head.
The discovery of the disease among
the cattle on this farm was a decid
ed surprise to the farmers of this sec
ton, and it is to be hoped that other
large herds hereabouts will not be
similarly affected.
The animals we're skinned and the
bodies burned in huge "crematory"
improvised on the mountain above
the barns. The ashes are estimated
to be worth SIS per COW, as fertilizer,
and the state pays $3.50 for each

Immediately proceed to cork up the
whole German empire, as it were
within it's own limits, are reckoning a
bit too hastily. The German Emperor
and his military advisers know the
relative strength of the two countries
quite as we'll as do these paper stra-

at all without some we'll understood,
definite plan, concerning the means
of executing which only they will
