Preserving Corpses.—M.2Deperais has devised a method of preserving corpses, which he treats to a bath of chloride of calcium, rising gradually in temperature until all the aqueous matter is evaporated and the b dy is saturated with the solution. The cffect is to destroy all the germs of disease in the tody and to harden the tis- sues. Itis then treated to another bath of sulphate of soda, after which the body readily dries and is free fron all harm. Of the &th January, 1821, it is recorded that Mr. Huddy, then postmaster at Lis- more, Ireland, and in his 97th year, tra- velled from that town to Fermoy fora wager in a Dungarvon oyster tub, drawn by a pig, a badger, two cats, a goose and a hedgehog. je wore a red flannel night cap, held a pig whip in«ne hand and a cow horn in the other, Scercely anything more sensational could be devised even in i882,
