ed Vice -Pres„ N. D. Vice -Pres.,

should be encouraged in every way.
The membership fee is 50e.. A meet-
ing of the Committee of Management
is called for to -morrow evening, (Fri-
day) at 8 o'clock, in the Town Hall.
PRESERVES THE BODY.—A test has
been made at Battle Creek, Mich., of a
new embalming fluid, that the in-
ventor claims will preserve a body for
centuries. The body of John Leck, an
aged negro, was handed over for the
test six months ago, and was exhumed
last week for examination. The body
has the consistency of vulcanized rub-
ber, and might readily pass for a
statue of black marble, as the petrified
flesh is hard enough to take a polish.
There is not the slightest trace of de-
composition or wasting, the features
retaining their fullness. The experi-
mentor says the fluid will preserve the
body fer centuries. It was recently
discovered by an eastern chemical
company, and this test on the body of
an unclaimed county hospital corpse
is the first made.
DEATH OF MRS. HA.NDFORD.—There

We have been requested to melee the
following insertion On behalf of the
directors of the Exeter Union Burial
Ground.' The seasons Operatiehe at
the cemetery are now fairly com-
menced, and as the expenses will
be very large this year the directors
hope that WI persons interested and
willing to aiSISt, will contribute as
liberal': as possible. It will save the
directors much loss of time and trouble
if those intending to contribute would
hand such contributions to one of the
directors as soon as convenient. After
another year the directors hope to
have the cemetery in a well kept and
seemly condition, and then to become
incorporated, which will be a guaran-
tee that for all time the cemetery can-
not again fall into neglect. The direc-
tors who will receive contributions
and give receipts for same are Richard
Coates, D. Jacques, Thos. Case, Roger
