His health has been bad all winter,
but he is now delivering a course of
lectures on animal life in the lecture

heart. He was born in Switzerland,
bis native language being French, and
indeed he is very Frenchy in manners
and appearance, His accent is strong,
being incapable of overcoming our
formidable til, but his english is good
and forcible. His hair is iron-gray,
and his face oval and fresh and rather
handsome. His eyes are keen, but
rather vivacious, and brown in color,
his height medium and his habit OF
body comfortable. He somewhat re-
semGles Henry Ward Beecher. Of
his wonderful learning all the world
has heard. His first proposition rath-
er startled my ignorance, but he said
the discovery was fifty years old, viz:
that all animal life was produced from
eggs. He is magnetic speaker though
possessing few graces of oratory, his
voice is rather reedy, though sufficient
