have only small representation in the
shape Of kind Of deer without antlers
in South America So in contrasting
the animals of South America with those
ofAfrica, we find totally different fami-
lies existing on the two continents. In
South America we find an animal close
ly resembling the calnels of the East,
except that they thriyed best in the re-
gions OF eternal snow. Now if the ami
mails of the earth came from each other,
it was strange that the offspring of the
discriminating and heat-enduring
camel of the east should wander to the
heights of of Andes in order to develop
himself The Professor then alluded to
the monkeys of South America as COM
pared with those Of the Asiatic Islands.
The monkey, he said, was the nearest
approach to man--so near in fact as to
shock the mind of those who entertain
the development" theory. The mon
keys OF South America were far inferior
to those of the east. Eastern monkeys
were found SO nearly approaching the
human species, that some naturalists had
discovered an advantage on the part of
the monkey. Laughter. Numerous as
are the different types of mankind, each
type was circumscribed within narrow
limits, and were probably natives of the
countries where they were found. Thus
we find, in some of the South Sea island,
an almost distinct type of man that was
confined to the narrow limits of com.
paratively small island. In other coun-
tries, as in Australia, we find race of
men but no monkeys OF any kind, so
that, according to the A." development :"
theory in these countries, the man must
have sprung from animals still inferior
to the monkey. Another strong argu-
ment against the development theory
was that no where in the different strata
of the earth has there ever been found
any evidences of the transition of one
type of animal to another. The ration
al mind must, therefore, look to other
sources for their origin of different kinds
of animals and man. For his part he
could not see that this origin could have
been other than an intelligent cause !;
and in view of the intelligence display
ed in the whole plan of creation, he
could only behold in the animal king
dom the manifestations of thinking
being which had brought all these types
into existence. AS in picture gallery
we see resemblance in the different
schools of the great masters of painting
in all ages, but do not, therefore, infer
that one painting is an offspring of an
other, but attribute the resemblance to
a community of mind that produced
them all so in the resemblance of the
animal kingdom we behold the evidences
of common mind working in accord
ance with great and wise plans.

CURIOUS CUsroM.-An intelligent
gentleman, who has lately travelled in
Palestine, gives description Of the Gu
rious scenes that are enacted in the
church of the Holy Sepulchre. He said
that when you first entered the church,
you would be surprised to see a party
of soldiers, with their swords by their
sides, and their guns stacked within
reach. 1t seemed a sacrilege in such
holy place, and struck one rather I'M
pleasantly. But he soon found out the
necessity for it. According to the law
ofthe country, every sect is allowed to
worship there and as it is considered
equally sacred both by Christians and
Mahomedans, all wish time for their
mode of worship. The law allows them
an hour each. They commence at six
in the morning. At that hour, those
who have the first privilege enter, bring
ing with them whatever is necessary to
conduct their particular religious rites.
They go through their prayers and
chants, and all is very quiet till about a
quarter to seven, when those who have
the next privilege of the next hour begin
to arrive. At first, all is decorum but
presently the new corners begin to hiss
and mock. AS their numbers increase,
and they become stronger, they shove
the crowd; and as the time lessons, they
get more and more bold. A few min
utes before seven they proceed to more
forcible demonstration. They think, if
they can clear out these blasphemers a
few minutes before the time, they have
done an equally good work. AS some
OF these sects use torches, wax candles,
slaves or crooks, in their worship, they
proceed to use these as weapons of of
fence or defence, and regular melee en-
sues. Then come in the soldiers, who
separate the combatants by filing in be-
tween them, turning out those whose
hour is up, and leaving the place in pos
session ofthe last corners. If blood is
shed the church is closed for the day.
Such scenes are occurring all day long,
and the presence of soldiers is therefore
absolutely necessary.

THE BEAUTIES OF CREATIoN.-Oh,
how can we be unhappy in this fair and
beauteous world, with everything in it
to make us happy? What an indescriba-
BILE scene of tranquility the contempla-
ton of nature brings to us, as it brings
to me, while gazing upon yonder grand
prospect ofhill and vale, with the charm
ing valley, clothed in a pleasing variety
ofgreen, that blend and mingle in har-
mony with each other. The setting sun
is just tipping with floods of golden
light the forest beyond, the birds are
singing the last notes of their evening
hymn, the sky is beautiful, the air is
soft and balmy, and comes laden with
the cheerful chirp of the cricket, the
drowsy buzzing of the happy insects,
the distant lowing ofthe returning kline,
the faint echo of far-off bell, the thou
sand indescribable sounds that bring
me a feeling of divine tranquility. How
completely we ignore the love of God
in most our pleasures but we cannot
do it in contemplating nature, we look
from nature up to natures God; ""God
is love-" and we see it in every green
tree, in every fiuttering leaf, in every
flower rand plant, in every blade ofgrass,
in yonder sky, that bears a living record
in letters of golden light; do we not
feel it in hours pain and sorrow, sick
ness and death, joy and peace? We
know that He is good, and when our
faith fails us we ought to write this on
our hearts. He made all things good
and for our delight and happiness, and
this fair scene, one of the most beaute-
GUS spots that mother earth bears on
her bosom, could the concentration of
all the artist power on earth, the efforts
of great minds, the cultivated, exquisite
skill, the most profound ideas of genius,
produce anything like the matchless
power of created nature, Gods handi-

SYMPTOMS.
The symptoms Of Catarrh are at first very
slight. Persons find they have cold, that they
have frequent attacks, and are more sensitive to
the changes of temperature. In this condition
the nose may be dry, or u slight discharge, thin
and acrid, afterwards thick and adhesive, may
ensue e.r
As the disease becomes chronic, the discharges
are increased in quantity and changed in quality
they are now thick and heavy, and are hawked or
coughed off, The secretions are offensive, caus-
ing bad breath; the voice thick and nasal; the
eyes are weak; the sense OF smell is lessened OF
destroyed; deafness frequently takes place.
Another common and important symptom OF
Catarrh is that the person is obliged to clear his
throat in the morning of slick or Shiny mu-
cous, which has fallen from the head during the
night. When this takes place, the person may
be sure that his disease is on it's way to the lungs
and should lose no time in arresting it.

symptoms. WTllt u OuI LdDOIdtOTy tOT ouI
