The Causes Of D,ssolutiori.

Whatever be the causes of dissolution,

one, tho nervous system is primarily at

an instantaneous extinction of life; in the
course OF tho other, dissolution is effected
by the circulation Of black rouous blood Ia

ariesial blood Tho former 10 termed death
By syBeope, or faiuting; the latter, death
by asphyxia. In the last mentioned man-
ner "a death, when Il 10 the result of dis.
ease, the struggle 10 long protrscted, and
accompanied with oil the visible marks Of
agony which .he Imagination associates with
the closing sceD,s of Iife--,be pinebed and
pailid features, the cold, clammy skin, the
upturned eye, and the beasipg, laborious,
rattling respiration. Death docs not strike
oil tho organs OF the body at the Same time:
aome may be said 70 survive others and
tho lungs are among the last to give up the
performance Of their functions and die. As
death approaches, they become gradually
more and more oppressed, the if-cells are
loaded sith an increased quantity of tho
euid which naturally lubricates the surface
the atmosphere can nov no longer come 10

meatiog tho viscid 6uid-hence the ratio.
Nor 10 the contact sufficiently perfect to
change tho venous into arterial blood; an
nnprepared fuid consequently issues from
:he lungs into the beari, and is thence trans
mitted TO every other organ Of the body.
The brsin receives il, and its energies appear
to be iulled thereby into sleep, generally

A lecture was recently delivered by the
Dean Of Westminster on "The English
Language as il would have been bat for

lecture. Dean Trench drew graphic pic.
ture OF the struggle for supremacy which
was maintained for .hree centuries be-

This did not, however, prevent the ad.
mixture Of an immense number Of Ro-

possibly do at The present day SO that
the very interesting question arose, "How
in the absence OF these words. would .heir
place have been supplied p To Illus
traie this part Of the subject the learned
lecturer brought forward q number Of
cases in which words Of purely Saxon
origin might have been used, had not the
Romantic equivalents rendered their en-

"sand waste" for desert "blood- BATH :
for massacre .'sin. .food," for deIuge /;
"sea robber," for pirate; "wsies-fright,' =
for hydropbobia "show-holiness, " for

desdliness." Tor immortality; "untella-
