Edward Everett, delivered on the fourth. in his

following i the concluding paragraph, The whole
address occupies nearly nine columns ofthe Ad-
tyytiscr:
"Thus. my friends, 10 the nhghborhood Of the
spot where, IN my early childhood, acquired the
first elements Of learning, at one Of those public

FOREIGN NEws-DEFEAT OF THE
ALLIES.

The foreign news which we publish to-day pos
sesses an extraordinary interest A great effort
has been made by the Allies upon Sebastopol
They simultaneously attacked the Redan wall
and the Malakof tower. The Russians opposed
to them brave and effective resistance Re
pulsed with great loss, they were even forced to
surrender the Mamelon, which they captured on
a former occasion. The accounts of the battle
are meagre and unsa tisfactory, but they disclose
enough to show the most favorable results to the
Russians The unexpected reverse of the Allies
has filled France and England with dismay,
whilst the Russians inspired with new energy
and determination. The loss of the English is
estimated at four thousand, including seventy
two officers, among whom were some of high
rank and distinction. 1t is with much pleasure
that we are enabled TO announce to our readers
that Sebastopol still stands.
The English may, however, be somewhat con-
soled to hear that Mr.. Champion has taken

The Mutation Of NIaffs

With very near approach TO truth tie hIt.
man family nhabitng the earth has been ss,i
mated at 100000 900; the annual loss hy death
IS l8,OO0,000. Now the weight of the animal
matter of this immense body cast in the grave, il
no less than ga 400 tons, and by its decomposi.
ton produces 5000, 200, 100000 cubic feet Of
gaseous matter, The vegetable productions Of
the earth clear away from the atmosphere the
gases thus generated, decomposing and assimila-
ting them for their own increase. This cycle of
changes has been going on ever since man be-
came an occupier of the earth. He feeds on the
lower animals and on the seeds Of plants, which
in due time, become part of himself The
lower animals feed upon the herbs and grasses
which, in their turn, become the animal; then by
its death, again pass into the atmosphere, and are
ready once more TO be assimilated by plants. the
earthly or bony substance alone remaining where
il is deposited and not even these unless sufTi-
GENTLY deep in the soil 10 be out of the absorben,
reach of the roots Of plants and trees Nothing
appears to be so cannibalizing to see a flock Of
sheep grazing in n country cburchyard knowing
il To be an undenable fact that the grass they cal
has been nurtured by the gaseous emanations from
my immediate predecessors then following IN
the fact that this said grass is actually assmated
hy the animal, and becomes mutton, whereof
may perhaps dine next week. 'Truth is stranger
than felton, and hore is truth that exemplihes
the proverb II is not at all difficult to prove that
the elements Of which the living bodies of the
present. generation are composed, have all passed
through millions Of mutations, and formed parts
OF all kinds of animal and vegetable bodies, in ac>
cordance with the unerring law of nature, and,
consequently, we may say with truth that frac-
tons Of the elements OF our ancestors form parts
of ourselves Some Of the particles Of Cicero's or,
