This is the snare of sectarians and specl-
a~lists: the desire to particularlze. For
ages men have sought the exact seat OF
life in the human frame. Once the heart
was called the centre OF lite. One savan
claims it for the grey matter OF the
brain; another for the cerebeilum an
other for the "medulla oblongata;" an
other for the spinal cord; another for an
electric fluid evolved by the action of the
nerves another for the phosphorus OF the
blood, but perhaps q just law of average
would locate it equally in all OF these.
We can no more locate the special seat of
life than we can @toretell WHEREIN the
case of a healthfnl man-that subtle es-
sencc will evaporate from the body.
Though so utterly beyond the grasp of
human reasoning powers IN the demon
s~tration of all the minute consequences
that will eventually cause the death OF
the individual, we are not without Il
most unerring guide in the determination
of the duration of life of a thousand per
sons. DR.. Fish, whose book we have
noticed in another column, says, in regard
