688 (Mr. J. Marshall rearranging that portion descriptive of the arteries from Quain’s own work upon the arteries), subse- quently of Mr. Ellis, and more recently of Allen Thomson, Scbafer, and Thane, is familiar to all students reading for the higher qualifications. Mr. Quain’s elaborate treatise on the " Anatomy of the Arteries of the Human Body, with its Applications to Pathology and Operative Surgery," with folio plates drawn from actual dissections by Joseph Maclise, F.R.C.S., will ever rank as a classical work. In addition Mr. Quain was the author of " The Diseases of the Rectum"; "Illustrations of a peculiar Bleeding Tumour of the Rectum"; and also of several minor works and pam- phlets on the professional cabals and scientific questions of the day. The late Sir John Quain, the well-known judge, was his younger brother, and it is reported left him a considerable fortune. In 1861 Mr. Quain married Viscountess Middleton, who died in November last. For years, with the exception of list year, he had passed the winter months in the south of France. In conversation he entered very fully and clearly into the subject under discussion, usually expressing his opinions in the terse and trenchant manner in which he had lectured more than forty years ago. Every word seemed to be thoroughly weighed, and the same kind of over-caution in not committing himself to more than he wished was remarkable. He was naturally intensely reserved, and he made but few friends. In his early professional life he frequently attributed wrong motives to colleagues and others, or misunderstood them, owing to his firm conviction that he took the right and just view of a question, and to his not being able to see that anyone else could honestly entertain a different view. He firmly defended those whom he thought unjustly attacked. On the other hand, he could never see anything good in an individual to whom he had taken a dislike, but then he always believed the dislike to be well founded. Of late years, however, the asperities of his character were materially smoothed down. His death, which occurred at his residence in Cavendish- square, at the ripe old age of eighty-seven, was due to cystitis, arising, it was believed, from the presence of a stone in the bladder, but he would not allow Sir Henry Thompson to sound him. Sir Henry, it may be mentioned, had some ten years previously successfully crushed a small stone which was then affecting Mr. Quain’s health. In his illness he was also attended by Sir William Jenner, Sir James Paget, Mr. Marshall, Dr. Hare, and Dr. Douglas Powell. The funeral took place on the 21st ult. at the Marylebone Cemetery, Finchley, the service being conducted by the Rev. J. D. Stewart, M.A., in the presence of many of the old friends of the deceased surgeon, as we stated last week. Medical News.

The Burial Reform Association therefore earnestly ask your co- operation in their efforts to bring back the nation to the adoption of the mode of burial unmistakably indicated in the burial service-viz., timely burial in the soil, with as little as possible intervening to prevent the air from gaining access to the body through the earth above and exercising its purifying and disintegrating action. Your attention is also called to the resolution passed by the council at a recent meet- ing : ‘The time has come when a united effort ought to be made to put a stop, as far as possible, to the dangerous and utterly indefensible practice of storing up, near great popu- lations, vast accumulations of human remains in every stage of arrested and prolonged decay."’

THE DORSET COUNTY HOSPITAL.- For some timepast considerable difficulties have been experienced by thegovernors of this institution in the matter of the strainedrelations between the house surgeon and the matron.
