Discovery Of Human Bodies that Ex-
isted Before Adam.

In the Department de la DoFdogne,
of France, human skeletons co-eval
with the mammoths have been dis
covered, and they present such fea-
lures of interest that the French
Government has sent Mr. Laret, the
distinguished paleontologist, to make
u report on the subject, He reports
that the bones of five skeletons have
been discovered, that they belong to
some gigantic race whose limbs must
have resembled, both in size and
form, those of the gorilla. The
skulls,o which onlythree are perfect,
are fatal to the simian theory, hav-
ing contained volumnious brains.
The skulls are, now in the hands of a
committee of savants, who are prepar,
ing an exhaustive genealogical re-
port. The result will be awaited
with interest by those who are de-
voted to the interest of science in
the old world. The curious and va
rious theories propounded and adj
vocated by Savants lead us to view
their decisions with distrust.

Nantucket a generation ago:
"lt was Il very severe winter, and
the harbor had been frozen four
weeks. The coal in store had long
been exhausted and there was much
suffering from lack Of fuel. Even the
fences had been torn down and burnt
to eke out the scanty supply of wood.
To the great delight of the towns
people the ice broke up one fine morn
ing and Il schooner was seen ap-
preaching. There was much excite
ment and before the vessel was moor
ed coal dealer boarded her and ca
gcrly addressed the honest Quaker
skipper, Captain Clifford. oval,

The South anu Ireland;

Great applause. What does the

Mississippi, as We in New York have
