The Virtues of Coffee. The action of coffee is directed chiefly to the nervous system, jt produces a warming, cordial impression on the stomach, quickly followed by a diffused, agreeable and nervous excitement,which extends itself to the cerebral functi >ns, giving risa to increased vigor of imagin ation and intellect, without any subse quent confusion or stupor, such as arc characteristic of narcotics. Coffee con tains essential principles of nutrition fir exceeding in importance its exhilarating properties, and is one of the most desir able articles for sustaining the sy-tem in certain prostrating diseases. As com pared with the nutrition to be derived from the be-t of soups, coffee has de cidedly the advantage, and is to he pre ferred in many instances. The medicinal effects of coffee are very great. In in termittent fever it has been used by em inent physicians with the happiest ef fects in cutting short the attack, and if properly managed is better in many cases than the sulphate of quinine. In that low state of intermittent, as found on the banks of the Mississippi River and other malarial districts, accompa nied with enlarged spleen and torpid liver, when judiciously administered it is one of the surest remedies. In yellow fever it has been used by physicians, and with some it is their main reliance after other necessary remedies have been administered; it retains tissue change, and thus becomes a conservator of force in that state in which the nervous sys tem tends to collapse, because thpblood has become impure; it sustains the nervous power until the depuration and reorganization of the blood are accom plished, and has the advantoge over other stimulants in inducing no injuri ous secondary effects. In spasmodic asthma its utility is well established, as in whooping cough, stupor, lethargy and such troubles. In hysterical at tacks, for which in many cases a physi cian can form no diagnosis, coffee is a great help. Coffee is opposed to malaria, to all noxious vapors. As a disinfectant it has wonderful powers. As an instantaneous deodorizer it has no equal for the sick room, as all exhalations are immedi ately neutralized by simply passing a chafing-dish with burning coffee grains through the room. It may be urged that an article possessing such powers and capacity for such energetic action must be injurious as an article of diet of ha bitual employment, and not without, deleterious properties; but no corre sponding nervous disarrangements have been observed after its effects have dis appeared, as are seen in narcotics and other stimulants. The action imparted to the nerves is natural and healthy. Habitual coffee drinkers generally en joy good health. Some of the oldest people have used coffee from earliest infancy without feeling any depressing reaction, such as is produced by alcoholic stimulants.— Philadelphia Times. Cremation in England. The cases of cremation in England to which allusion is made in this morn ing s telegrams are likely to bring on an extended and exciting dis ussion. lhe bodies cremated seem to have been those of Elina Dean Patev, second wife ot the Rev Sir .James Hanham, seventh Baronet of the line, and o f her daughter-in-law, Edith Mary, third wife of Commander Thomas Barnabas Han naw. lhe English Cremation Society soon after its formation in 1874. ob tained an opinion from Dr. Tristram and Mr. Meadows White to the efleet that the performance of the process o f cremation was perfectly le-al in En gland. provide.l that ii involved no con sequence which could be construed by any one as a nuisance. Bishop Rofl'en who was first appealed to, refused to permit the setting apart of a portion of the Great Northern Cemetery for the ere tion ol a Crematorium, and after the society had erected a Gorini fur nace at Woking so much outcry was F’t.sed that the projectors had to aban don the enterprise, or at least lot it fall into abeyance lor lhe moment. This crematory was erected in March, 1876, when the Home Secretary, while ad* mitting tha* the proposed practice was unaflweted by existing law, declared that, inasmuch as the registration of deaths had always been associated with burial, he was constrained to conclude that cremation must first be approved by I’arliani. nt. He further advise I the council of the society to introduce a short bill into the House of Lords and not rely upon the opinions of counsel. Only a lew weeks ago it was reported that the Cremation Society had re ceived a more formidable set-back by he decisii n of the High Court of Justice in the Crookenden ea-e. Henry Crookenden, dying, left his body to his friend, Miss Eliza Will ams, by whom it was to be cremated, his executors being charged with defraying any ex penses she might incur. The executors and family, notwithstanding her pro test, buried the body, but Miss Will iams obtained a permit to remove it to any church-yard, where she did indeed deposit the re mt ins, but not until they had been taken to Italy and duly cre mated- Miss Williams sued the ex ecutors to recover the expenses ol her proceedings, but was defeated, the court holding that she had obtained the license by misrepresentation and ille gality; that t ere could be no property in a corpse, and that the provisions with regard to the delivery of the body were void, and, finally, that cremation was illegal. The decision, however, was regarded by very good authorities as oppo-ed alike to good sense and the spirit and tendency of modem law in such matters, and no concealment was made of the intention to bring the sub ject to a test at no distant day W.

The Man Who Sane. “Gilbert Lang, you are charged with disturbing the peace ” “I deny that 1 did!” hotly replied the prisoner, a man of fifty with a very i Jong neck and a very queer voice. “Then 111 prove it. Where’s the witnesses? ’ Three witnesses came forward and testified that night had been made hid eous by certain sounds which they traced to the prisoner. “What sori of sounds?” “Shrieks mid screams your Honor. ’ “1 deny it.” shouted <>ill;crt “1 was simply singing, as I walked about.” “Well, some folks’ singing is enough to disturb a whole neighborho >d,” re marked the Court. “ Perhaps your voice is not musical.” “ It isn’t, eh? You just listen to it and decide for yourself.” And thereupon the man drew a full breath and gave utterance to such sounds as ma le the chills creep over everybody in the room, 'lhe Court tried to stop him, and Bijah sought to bribe him, and the clerk ran out doors; and it was lull three minutes before he could be choked off. “There! Do yon call that disturbing the peace?” he demanded ns he paused for breath. “Mr. Lang.
