PROGRESSION,

1t would be nearly impossible for us
to enumerate the wonderful advantages
that we possess ever former generations,
in the way of industry, science and art
We have access to the discoveries that
have been made by man, since his cre-
alton, as they have been given to us
from generation to generation-aiding,
in greateextent, to raise us from state
of barbarism to one of more import
ance and greater perfection. Men of
ancient times were compelled to labor
under disadvantages that are now ex-
tinct, and to stand wholly upon their
own Notwithstanding to no other
than their own strong minds to search
out the wonders of a mysterious crea-
tion. Their discoveries, to great ex-
tent, are now before us We can learn
them as they are given to us by the
wise of past ages, and then pass on into
the study of the unknown. By this
means, we are permitted to approach
nearer the great ideal of perfection each
successive year. If it were not for the
twenty-six characters by which Ian
guage is revealed to us in our tongue,
or some other means that would answer
the same purpose, our knowledge would
be comparatively limited, and of little
benefit to man. To the various forms
of written science may be attributed the
universally of our present knowledge !;
and, although we may have no New
tons among us, still we are moving for
ward at rate not surpassed by any
age since the commencement of civiliz-
alton. Thus, we see and feel the great
responsibility that rests upon the youth
of our land, to keep in motion this great
work of progression that will finally
crush ignorance, and substitute in its
, stead wisdom and refinement. G L.

ways Sc spending money. A sailor. for
instances, after having arrived home
from long voyage, squanders his earn
ings in conviviaI excess, centering in a
week of reckless hilarity the pleasure
from which he has been hindered for
SO many months. His way of spending
money seems absurd and unaccountable
to a student, whose chief use of money
is in buying books, and hearing lectures,
or getting costly apparatus for scientific
discovery. The use Of money ought
not to be limited to any selfish measure.
No one ought to buy what he honestly
fbelieves to be of no use to any person.
Examples might be given OF this way
of wasting money, which we would re-
cognize at once as apt and common. A
purchase may be good in itself, yet it
may not be in place for you or me, and
it ought not to take our money from
things which we really need. One may
have more money than he cares to keep
or to invest, but it is better to continue
it as productive capital than to spend it
for the sake of getting rid of money.
We may see those who seem to have no
other motive in their purchases than
just to {" buy something" they do not
care what. Do not spend wholly for
self. Spend as much as you can for
that which you can use in common with
others, or that which will bring the
largest blessings to the largest number.
Spending money all on one selfish en-
joyment is morally worse than hoard
ing it, for, in the one case, it is wholly
lost, while in the other, it is kept for
heirs. NERO.

Figures just published in the Paris Jour.
Aal O0scial show that France has lost two

Republic the Minister Of the Interior says

Professor n. s. Shaler. upon the sutl,ori.
" of Captain John Pease, IN old and Oh.
servant whale.fi.her. writes is follows in
the January number Of the American Natu-
ralist, concerning the frequent struggles
between the male and sperm whales: The
conflicts between the males Of sperm whales
cause great damage u the lower jaw; the
evidence goes to show that at least two per
cent are crooked more or less, and one in
several hundred very badly bent by these
struggles. There arc two specimens ~ the
small museum ut Nantucket which are sin>
gulSrly cOntOrtcd; one Of them 10 bent it,
e'ally into one turn OF spiral. Captain
Pessc tells me that he found one that was
bent sideways al right angles iu the proper
position and firmly fixed there, seeming TO
bc permanently fastened In this singular
position. In lighting, the males rush 1T
each other with open jaws aud strike in
passing. The great speed and power OF
these massive creatures must lead to the
mos, serious results from such collisions.
Captain Peasc once found spcr,D whale
nearly dead on the water, with lower jaw
hanging by single band of lixamcnt few
inches through. Sharks and crustaceans
were devouring the creature, but the wrench
which had crippled him must have come
from one Of his vwn kind"
