name, his system alters the measure, and thus he
forces on the people the radical change, without
giving them the full benefit of the well-defined
unit from which to start. The Springfield Republi-
can says intelligent people concede that " the sys-
tem at present in use is unnatural, complicated, in-
convenient, reducible with difficulty to the denomi-
nations of other nations with which we have deal-
ings through custom-houses ;in short, having no-
thing in its favour, except that the people have got
used to it. It is neither decimal nor duodecimal, it
has no common units, it begins nowhere and ends
at the same place, and can only be describel as an
arbitrary, haphazard, straggling set of tables,
convenient only for cheating. A great many
people think with Congress that the substitution in
place of this crazy system, or rather want of system,
of the simple, decimal, metric system of the French,
would be a vast national and individual gain. This
system, as a suitable one for us, finds powerful
advocates outside of Congress, particularly in
SAMUEL B. RUGGLES, of New York, who is our
foremost man in all such matters."
The XXXIX. Congress recommended and
legalised the use of the French metric system at its
first Session, which it was empowered to do in
the Bth section of the Ist Article of the Consti-
tution, which enables it to fix, the standard of

to the imports of raw material, there is no room,
for congratulation, when they are compared with
the amount of manufactured goods entered from
foreign countries. But it is in the table of ex-
ports that the sufferings and embarrassments of
French manufacturers are must apparent, as their
amount declined during the period of 1867 now
under examination by 198 millions, of which
116 in articles the direct produce of the soil, and

fell off 40 millions ; those of wool, upwards of 11;
made-up goods, 6 ; fashionable articles, between 3
and 4 ; cotton fabrics, 4 ; and metal works, 3. The
total imports during the five mouths being 1,303
millions, and the exports 1,293, there is a monthly
average of the former of 200 millions, and of the
latter of 258. During the corresponding period of
1866, the exports exceeded the imports by 322 mil-
lions.

The Springfield Republican states that the grand
jury of the city court of Mobile reports that the recent
riot there grew out of the fact that firearms were openly
worn by coloured men present to hear Judge 'Cuticle
speech, and that the first shot was probably tired aceideu
tally, which occasioned nn alarm and a panic. The
coloured people of Mobilo refused General Swayne's offer
to fill from their number the vacancy is the city council,
declaring that they wanted to show to their fellow-citizens
that they waived their claims as a class whenever it \VOA
evident that the cause of peace aud good order would bo
subserved thereby.
The food crisis at the So he
has passed with the
beginning of the harvests, and hereafter no one need suf-

late reports to General Howard, chief of the freedmen's
bureau,
also indicate a remarkable improvement in all re-
lations existing between the two races in a majority of the
Southern States, and that a majority of the Southern
people are labouring earnestly to comply with the require-
monts of the Government, in order to secure the long-
hoped-for domestic tranquillity.

THE BALL AT THE INDIA HOUSE,

Mr. FAWCETT asked the Secretary of State for India
whether the expenses of the ball about to be given to the
Sultan at the India House were to be charged upon
the revenues of India; and further, to ask why, when an
European monarch visits this country, the only public
State entertainment given to him was to be paid for by the
people of India ?

Sir S. NORTHCOTE said the entertainment had not
originated with the Government, but in tho Council for
India, and therefore the expenses would be placed to the
funds at the disposal of that Council. -

2d to 3d per 100 lb on the week. Flour met with a slow
trade, at an advance of is per sack. Oats and oatmeal in
fair demand at full prices. Barley was difficult to meet
with at extreme rates. Beaus and peas advanced is per

THE NAVAL REVIEW.

(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
PORTSMOUTH, iVednesday.
The attendance of the public to-day is very
great, and the utmost excitement prevails. The
weather in the early part of the morning gave
indication of a fine day, although it was rather
squally at sea. The Sultan was most enthusiasti-
cally received.

Shortly after noon the weather changed, the rain
commenced falling and the sea became anything but
pleasant for landsmen. A strong sou'wester is
blowing, and all now on shore is dull and uncom-
fortable.

The fleet has become enveloped by mist and rain,
and to such an extont that it cannot be seen from
the shore.

The review has, however, been a complete suc-
cess, and the Sultan has expressed his gratification
at this grand display.

SCULLERS' RACE.
A scullers' raco for .C:l5 a side was on Tuesday rowed
between T. Pearce of Bermondsey, and T. Carpenter, of
Rotherhithe, from Putney to Mortlake. Captain Fenter
of the accompanying steamer, the Volunteer, was referee.
Owing to the wetness of the weather and other delays the
men did not get off till after high water. Carpenter won
the choice of stations, and took the Middlesex side. He
went away with a slight and momentary load, his oppo-
nent collaring hi►n at the pier. They wore almost scull
and scull for half a mile. Carpenter at this point drew
clear of him. They were very near close at Hammer-
smith-bridge ; but shortly after this Pearce had drawn
almost two lengths ahead. This was materially lessened,
Carpenter nearly overlapping him at Barnes ; Pearce,
however, drew further away, and won by two lengths.

IS MAN A MONKEY ?

To those who may not binclined to claim rela-
tionship with the gorilla or chimpanzee, the follow-
ing summary of a paper recently read to the
Academy of Sciences by M. Quatrefages may be of
some interest. The learned Academician had on
that occasion to present a work, by M. Vogt, on
" Microcephali, or l‘lonkey-men," the author
meaning thereby human beings in whom the
brain is exceedingly small. The cases exa-
mined by him being exclusively confined to
specimens that have actually lived, or that were
still living at the time he was engaged in his
researches, are very rare. Those quoted from
authors by M. Vogt do not exceed 40; his own
inquiries only enabled him to find ten instances of
inicrocephalism, comprising men, women, and chil-
dren. After the requisite anatomical descriptions
he proceeds to examine the cause of these abnormal
growths, and in so doing considers them to be owing
to a tendency to return to the original formation of
the human species. To this view M. Quatrefages
does not subscribe, since it leads to the conclusion
hat man may have descended from the monkey ;
and to refute it he points to the fact specially
remarked on by various physiologists, viz., that
man is a walker, while the monkey is emu-
tially a climber. In these two groups the whole
locomotive apparatus is therefore strikingly dif-
ferent : the monkey can walk, but prefers climbing ;
man can climb, but prefers walking. The labours
of Duvernoy on the gorilla, and of Gratiolet and
Alix on the chimpanzee, show that the monkey type,
as it approaches to perfection, developer the climbing
faculty more and more ; and that the contrary is the
case with the human typo. M. Quatrefages thenpro-
ceeds to explain that even if Darwin's theory of deri-
vation be adopted, the phenomena in question should,
according to that theory, be read differently. We
know a large number of terms of the Simian series.
We see it ramified into secondary series, all equally
tending towards the anthropomorphous type, and
constituting, not the members of a same family, but
the superior corresponding terms of three distinct
ones. Notwithstanding the secondary modifications
introduced by improvements of the same nature,
the orang-outang, gorilla, and chimpanzee, still
fundamentally remain monkeys, that is, climbers;
while man constantly preserves his distinctive qua-
lity of being a walker.

LIVERPOOL COTTON AIARKET—This Day,

The market opens steady, and unchanged.
Sales probably 10,000 bales.

Official statements published by the Zollverein
authorities show that by the reduction of the duties in the
Treaty of the 2d of August, 1862, a notable increase had
taken place iu the consumption of French wines in 1865
and 1866 ; from 118,324 quintals (about nine gallons each)
in 1864 it had risen to 170,410 in 1865, and 197 ,360 iu
1866. As the reduced duty of 15f. the quintal only came
into operation since July 1, 1865, and as 1866 was not a
year favourable to commerce it may be expected that a still
further increase may arise.

Lord DERBY had a satsfactory task to perform last
night in introducing the Reform Bill into the House

reached so advanced a stage of proceedings. After
the many doubts and drawbacks that attended its
earlier course some will be agreeably surprised that
