Sternanlan, her trial at all events is likely to result in the plating of a law nn the statues to regulate the process of embalming. A bill has heen prepared by Dr Bryce, secretary of the Provincial Board of Health, for submie slop to the Legislature which, if passed by that body, will make it imperative under a heavy penalty fee undertakers to adopt a solution of a formaldehyde or a form of methclic alcohol instead of the metallic poisons, such as arsenic, now in use. This step. as will be read- ily imagined, is taken for the purpose of iessentng the poeei„;tity of perso m poisoning others by arseuic and escap- ing detection.

It would be wrong to stigmatise in law a thing asevil, which is u0t an evil because the deception would aysert itself in time and came a pee action of feeling. Rev J.

I might quote hundreds mote who have the same opinion regarding the spirit of the Bible oa this point, but let. the above suffice. Bishop Magee, of Peterborougb, ex- pressed the opinion that there was no moral excellence without freedom.

Clinton, Feb. 1.•—The Doherty organ factory, which has been the boast tit Clinton citizens for twenty years, i, this morning in ashes. The entire plans, which occupied half a block, is a total loss, not even the lumbtr having been saved. The origin of the fire is a mystery, except that it originated in the hot blest fan which was used to heat the bui [dings. The night watchman was en duty and smelt fire and soon located it the contained h which c in the steel box fan. He at once stopped the working of the fan and started the pumps. By t ire time he returned to the fan with 1ne hose, the heat and fire were so iu tense that when he opened the door he wes driven back and almost suffocated A general alarm was thea sounded but owing to the very deep snow caused by yesterday's storm it was with ditileultb the steam engine arrived at the tanks near the factory. The temperature was considerable below zero and a very high wind blowing, see that it was with difficulty the 'firemen undertook their work. The factory was the largest exclus- vely organ factory in Canada,and yes not large enough to meet the demands of their trade, and Mr. Doherty was making arrangements to build another large addition this year. Mr. Doherty In fact everything and anything.

The building, stock and machinery at t 00 000. and there valued e wee� , were nearly 1,000. organs on the way to completion, while in the yard, there was nearly a million feetofvaluable lum- ber.
