The OUyan9 Ouiaag in Baltimore
This remarkable species Of monkey

naiuTalists, is now exhibiting al the
Baltimore Museum. The height is
3 feet Z inches, breadth Of head from
ear 10 ear 9 inches, Iis circumference
] foot 2inehes. The breadth and height
Of scull show the large development Of
the organs Of cOmbaiiveness, adhesive
ness, secFetiveness. beneVOlenee, SO.
The form is that Of an Old african; The
ears are exactly human, also the hand
very like: body covered with thin CLOS
sy black hair; eye-lashes human; strong
black hair on the back Of the head,
lake some Indian tribes; pupil black,
iris bazel. The organs Of adhesive
ness, phiioprogeniiivoness aud beneve-
lence, show q greater development of
the moral faculties than in this race
generally. The face is wrinkled and
ireckled, and has a white beard on the
skin. The hand is B inches in length.
The foil grown animal has hand nine
inches long, and stature 10 8 feet
The spine is that Of the human body.

SLEEP.

II Is mistaken idea that much sleep
10 conducive 10 health. In infancy
two-tbirds Of the time may 90 spsnt in

and IN extreme old age the system re-
quires much rest, but in middle sre.
when the frame Is robust, one-third Of
the time, that is, eight hours, 10 gene
rally fully sufficient TO keep the body in
health and vigOr. Many people do not
require more than FIVE or six hours.
and some people have for the greater
part Of their lives required but three
students, and all men who exert the
mind, require more than people who
only fatigue the body. II also requires
. longer time for the mind 20 fall asleep
when Il has been excited than the boz
dy. This may seem strange, but IL is
Certain that some Of the senses sleep
sooner than others. Many personI are
no sooner upon their pillows than they
are Lost in Slumber, while Others al
ways require hours 20 lull the excite
ment Of the mind. Generally speak
