ftEART BURIAL. SIR Nicholas Crisps, Bart., one of the most devoted adherents of the house ol Stuart, during his lifetime caused to be placed high up on the north wall of the nave of the church of St. Paul, Hammersmith, Middlesex, a large monument of black and white marble to the memory of Charles 1., surmounted by a bust of the King. A pedestal of black marble in the form of a column reaches about halfway up the monument, and on top of this is placed a stone urn enclosing the heart of Sir Nicholas Crispe He himself was interred in the family vault in the church of St. Mildred, Bread Street, London, but he directed that his heart should be placed in this urn. A long inscription, in gold letters, on the pedestal records the fact that his heart is "entombed" within the urn; it also gives the date of his death—February 26,1665-—at the age of 67 years. It was the custom to take out the heart on the anniversary of its entombment and refresh it with a glass of wine, but after the expiration of more than a century and a half it became decayed and was enclosed in a leaden case, which is no doubt Still in the urn. Victor Hugo in his " History of a Crime" mentipns that the representative Gindrier, who was prominent during the coup d'etal. bad the body of ex-constituent James Demontry, who had died in exile at Cologne in 1850, exhumed. GindrierhadDemontry's heart extracted, embalmed it, and enclosed it in a silver vase, which he took to Paris. The party of the mountain delegated him, with Choliet and Joigneux, to convey this heart to Dijon, Demontry's native place, and give it a solemn funeral. This funeral was prohibited by Louis Bonaparte, then President of the Republic. Victor Hugo doe* not say what eveatualW became of Demontry's beart. w_ Due to Climate. The weather is often very trying. The blood becomes filled with impurities and the nervous systom is greatly weakened. One awakens in the morning just as tired as at night.
