The reporter made further inquiries It was ascertained that up, till the present there have been eight : incinerations at tho "Karon Crematorium—two within the last week.

These caskets, now being made to order by the undertakers, are made of the raror woods, about eight inches square, and are surmounted with a silver plate (inscribed, if desired) with (he name of the deceased, and the date of the cremation. Tho undertaker pointed out that in such cases where tho remains of a person were desired to be transported from one country to another, tho claims of cremation must be recognised.
