shoot down the human creature of whom could
make no use? A buffalo would make better meat !;
for though your flesh might be young and tender,

SINGULAR FAcT.-Professor Agassiz said in
recent speech before scientific body:
found that the young animals, in almost all class
es, differ widely from what they are in their full
grown condition. will state at once few results
for instance, young bat,o young bird or young
snake, at certain period of their growth within
the egg, resemble each other so much, that defy
the most able zoologis OF our day to distinguish be-
tween bat and snake, OF 10 distinguish between
robin and bat, or to distinguish between robin
and snake. There is something of high signifi-
canoe in this fact. There lisa thought behind these
material phenomena. which shows that they are all
combined under ore rule, that they only come I'M
der different laws of development TO assume final
~ different shapes, according to the object for which
they were introduced.
