EYEs.-There is wonderful diversity among
animals in respect to the plumber of their eyes.
In mammals, limited to two, and are always
placed on the head. The greater part OF the
surface of the head of the house-fy is covered by
an aggregation of about 10000 eyes and in the
dragon-hy they number about 5000, and may
be easily seen by the use of a magnifying lens
even of very small power. They are not always
confined to the head alone. In spiders and scOr-
pions there are generally eight or ten of them, in
one or more clusters, on the dorsal aspect or that
part of the head and throne. The star-fsh or
9 fve-fngers,'' familiar to every one who has
spent any time on our sea-coast, has an eye on
the tip Of each ray or finger. In the sea-urchin,
which is homologically nothing but a star.ish
with the ends of its rays drawn close together,
the FIVE eyes are gathered in a circle around what
is considered the hinder portion of the body.
The scallop has numerous eyes on the edge OF his
mantle. extending from one end of the animal to
the other, and forming a semi-circle. Some ma
rine worms have them in clusters, not only on the
head, but also each side of the body, even to the
tip of the tail, and they are connected individu-
ally and directly with the medium nervous cord.
IF we descend to the lowest forms, we find many
infusoria which have neither eyes nor nerves, and
yet it is easy to sec that they are sensitive to
light, for they either seek or avoid = at
Home.

The horrors of modern warfare are a never
failing topic of discourse at the present time.

lOO, 900 Prussians killed and wounded, $4,000.
At Wagram, $50 900 French, 10000 Austrians;
killed and wounded, "a 900. At Borodino, 1885,
600 French and same number of Russians loss
in killed and wounded. 80 200. At Leipzig,
$4,000 French, $50 900 Allies; $4,000 killed
and wounded. At Waterloo, 5000 French,

Solferino, 135 900 French and Sardinians, 1885,
600 Austrians; killed and wounded, 81 900. At

A man was brought before the French police a
few days since, under the charge of attempting
to pick a travellers pocket at one of the Paris
railway stations, where, the public should be
warned, they usually carry on their trade. The
mans assumed defence was, that he believed the
gentleman was a Prussian who was carrying
away French money.

THE CENSUS.

In another column we publish commu-
nication from a well-known citizen protest
ing in very indignant terms against the in
quisitorial queries that the oensus-takers are
authorized to make. The objection that every
body has to answering questions about pri-
vate family and business matters is an occa-
sion of difficulty every time census is
ordered to be taken. A majority even of the
most intelligent men and women in the coun-
try are unable to understand what possible
use such information can be to anybody; and
even when the full importance of the census
is understood, there are few who are willing
to answer freely and unreservedly all the
questions that are propounded. This
repugnance is perfectly natural, and
Congress in passing census law
should endeavor to make the queries as little
Objectionable as possible; and it is especially
important that the census-takers shall be
polite and good-humored, and endeavor to
obtain the information they require without
giving offense.
The present census is designed to be much
fuller than any ever taken before, and many
of the questions are we'll calculated to create
considerable irritation. The communication
to which we refer undoubtedly expresses the
feelings of great many persons; bat it
should be taken into consideration that the
census is only taken once il ten years, that
the details are carefully kept from the public,
and that the aggregate information obtained
is really of the greatest value not only to
statesmen, business men, and others who
have occasion to consult statistics, but in a
thousand different ways to all classes
of society. 1t is only by means of
careful census that We can gain any accurate
knowledge OF the increase of the population,
the relative Importance of the great business
interests of the country, and multitude of
other things that contribute to the prosperity
of the nation. Every citizen in free country
like this has direct interest in making the
census returns as complete and accurate as
possible; and although it may be disagreeable
to reply to some of the queries propounded,
it should be remembered that the census is
taken for a really wise and good purpose, aud
ii is much better for individuals to submit
to a slight inconvenience than to vitiate
the correctness Of the returns by refusing to
answer OF by answering incorrectly.
