Statues of Corpses.

The pleasing possibility of Transforming
the dear deceased into marblelike statue
that may be set in niche or on pedestal
was suggested to the members of the
Academy of Sciences of Paris recently by
Mr.. Mortin who read paper detailing his
discovery of a process of converting animal
matter, before decomposition sets in, into
substance resembling marble, being
sufficiently hard to allow of its being
soulptured. He called the attention of the
society to the possibility Of his invention,
which he has taken the precaution to pat,
ent, being utilized to preserve human bodies
after death. Inasmuch as this marblelike
substance can be sculptured, 1t is possible
to remedy little physical defects that, I'M
noticed or at least not obtrusive In life,
might detraot from the attractiveness of
statue.

lion.

the governor, Lord Jersey, and made o
good impression. He was invited to a
large garden party at the palace, or govern

promised TO be present.
Garden parties In the magnificent
grounds overlooking the harbor are of

was an affair of so much Importance that
the dignitaries of other colonies were in

representatives, and in this capacity tho
Earl of Hopetoun sent Captain Douglas
from Melbourne.
Lady Jersey herself introduced Captain
Douglas to Lord Cavendish. The captain
was too we'll bred to express what he felt
at the time, and that was that this was
daring impostor.
Though certainly nervous, the young
