NEW YORK, April 4. Ifistustins :regarding the burn a, instead of the burying of the bodies of the dead, have for some time been the feature*of the Sun- I dav edition of the New York World. IIThe articles of Sir Ienry Thoipson, in the En.-ish periodieals, r.cvaating t incremation, have been reproduced ( there, iid have provoked an inteiest ing co.troy ry. in which some I I doughty champiobs have appeared in favor of the present custom of bury- I inig in the earth. The. arguments in fa ;or of incremation are that grave- U a t yards are prejudicial to the health of the living; that they occupy much svncp that might be put to more use ful pnrpose; that there is something ropugnant to the wind in the coutem- t plation of the body of a loved one rot- s ting and putrefying, and eaten by I worms, and that burning the body, s and placing the ashes in a funeral urn. i is much more healthful, pleasnt and econot1ical. The irieuds of this theo ry-jave grown strong enough in New York to effect an organization, and ac cordingly a PUBLIC MEETING of the incremationis ts was held at the Assoviation alil last night. Like most initial- meeting of au reforia." this one uumbered its pioneers at less than fifty, but they were evideutly eIrncst meu and believers in the doi trine. Three phyicians took part. i and among-he letter-writers who ap proved of the objects of the organiza tion were Mr. Henry Bergh, the presi dent uf the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals; Rev. 0. B. FrothinL,haw. the free religionist and disciple of Theodore Parker; Mr. , Chatrks A. Dana, editor of the 'un ; and Col. IIenry S. Olcott, the distiun guished inurance lawyer. The only letter receiv,d that opposed illerema tion was written by Mr. ). G. Croly. the managing editor of the Graphic, and it expresses so well the view of incremation from the utilitarian and positivist standpoint, and is so tersely expre.4sed, that I think your readers will thank you for the space you will I give tb it here. IN was as follows: 162 EAST THIRTY-EIGHTH STREET, March, M.i E. J1. Cas?Cel-DEAR SIR: With regard to cremation all I have to say on the subject is :1 First. That I ami far more intere-st ed in people being welborn than in the method of their burial. and I enter tain the opinion that all organized ef forts should be to the physical, men al and moral we.ll bei ng of the race. and hence any agitation foir a change in the disposal of the remains seems to be wasteful. I Second. The method of disposing of the dead depend.svery haigely upon the reli.ios f-aith of the people. So iong as the resurrection of the body( is a casrdina! doctrine of the Chr istian religion it will be idle to attempt any maoveinieiit for a returu to the pagan method. No matter what sentimen-t tal, sanitary, or seien4tifie reasons couldi be urged, they will weigh as nothing against a custom founded upo.n a re ligious creed and whait is to us im memorial habit. Third. If it were possible, however,t generally to change the method oft disposing of human reumains, I should oppose cremation as being a waste of material which might be utilized by so disposing of the corpse as. to add to the fertility of the soil. Fourth." In view of the sparseness of our populattion I do not see howt there can .be any embarrassment in tidin" cemneteries and graiveyards enouzh for all who are likely to die in this ~ecountry within the next ten centuries. Yoiurs very truly, On the other hand, 31r. Dana< thought that it '-is not creditable to civ iizat ion that any part of the earth's surface should be devoted to ?'rave yards. and that the remains of the dead should be disposed of in the u.nsel entific, c-umbersomne and repulsivelt mainer which now obtains. ' Col. Olcott dropped into rom;ance and poetry. anid could "never reall without pain-. ful disgust the picture of the deadt Count Orlando coining back to claimi hi< false love: "iTe worms they crept-out Ad pran led his eyes- an:d templeds about As he g-zed on the. fai Imnogen." IThe upshot ot the conference was that a pemn:zent organization, or in.. It eremation society, w as effected. officers werey chosen, and the meeting a:djourn ed foir two weeks. List-s are to bee opened for members. and the Letgisla- e ture is to be called upon to legalize ~ the burning of such bodies as the pos sessors thereof direct to have put I through that process. It may be add- 1 ed that the orthodox religious senti-p ment of the cotuij unity is very strong a lvaans n ange in the present , MIAssAcHU'sETTs S-ENAToRUI.

More Corn Planted. s With the liveliest satisfaction we stify that we have assurance that yre corn is being planted this s,ten an last. We do not iudulge the pe that tis is general by any means. would be fully to expect it, but that is done eve:i by a few our of farmers enough to know for the pr.-sent. and an evidence of better things. We ar of those who are planting a third Dre, and by men who made enough do them until the next crop is gath ed. We notice, toi, that the papers in her counties make similar mention. ore corn is planted! It is the gladest y we have heard since the collapse, d bince the farmers went mad on tton, and the result will be that use who are following this wise course ill make all their ends meet and havc miething to spare, when all things f e re.:;Intd up. The suicidl notion Ut there is mney in ci,tton without le aid of grain and hay, will be more an ever realized ere this year expires it be persisted in. But we trust at our farmers have all cut their eye eth by this time, and are ready to Imit that every bushel of corn bought d hauled home is worth to them at ast $2. and that it is better to make teen or twenty bales of cotton and a dAicieucy of other things to do them ithout buying, than double the quan ty of cotton, every cent of w'hich ust go for labor and the purchase of ipplies. Think of it farmers, if you ive not already. We know of farmers who were on e right track last year, and who termined to r.tise corn enough to do em, and then as much cotton besides possible, who were able to place the ~st part of their- cotton money in eir pockets, arnd these men are now iii.g corn on credit to those who1 et in for all cotton. This latter is L experienee of man in thme past, it we trust it will not be so in the ture. tund we hail the cry-more corn panted-feeble though it be, as an nen of prosperity.

It is usual to look upon the results of aI elections of New Hampshire and e !oinnecticut as weather vanes which oint which wav the political wind is lowing. Whether it is rCLSo1:.ale to xpect victory in general results from le results of these pioneer elections is it xtremely questionable. Still it is in- it tresting to note that there is a spirit of is pposition abroad to the present ad- ij iinistration, which, in the end, may h -ork out some good. and the termina 4 m ions of these elections furnish us with ome reason to hope that the good work to r- r as begun. The returns of New Hamip hire and Connecticut both show deci- o led victories against the Radicals, but specially does the result of the elee- cr ion in the latter State afford' some a, round for encouragement, as the oppo- C( ition there shown to Radicalismn seens tl o have more of -national significance. he triumph in that State for Decmoert *y is the most complete that has oe urred within the last twenty years. at ti What Will Congress Do ? ti The petition of South Carolina for ti elief fronm radical misrule and oppres- if ite is before C.igress.

The rude reception fil if the petitioners by the President had si iot dismayed them, though it was w inexpected and indicative of pu:ilau- ti mity, coning from the representative m if the nation to the repre.sentative f State and proipted by personal spite.

Why is tb: hi? and what is the cause ? Cotton be ot altogether to blame in this case. W Ithough in a great measure it masy be he .muse where the miantia leads to the th~ esire of making abig crop, ,a crop F rhich will exceed that of SOmeC one to Ise. The true reason mtay be said to "~ eindifferetnce or perhaps laziness. 'lhe cost and labor of tiaking hay is rifling, when it is considered how ti muh of the profits of the big cotton Pt rop are swallowed up iu thte purchase P' f rough food, to keep the farm stock I' thir legs through the long winter us ud hard spring.

The only trouble then is, that -oper care be given to the curing to ke a superior article of hay. The a ay to do this is to allow it to remauin nel seti as cut for one day, then stack S25 small piles all over the field, and th ter the second day coimmnence adding e se small staeks together into larger sul es. These then should be left for an~ out teni days, after which time~ the tat y will be ready for hauling into thefa r, fresh and sweet, and more nutri lpraofin- he t. its than most of the coarse, burnt lne E R TIHIsERALD.
