+ The Challenger (the vessel fitted out by
the British Government for scientific investi-
CATION of the bed of the OCEAN, appears to be
picking up very curious creatures from the
bottom of the Atlantic. 1t has drcdged up
creatures almost entirely composed of eyes, in
which the body is a mere appendage to the
eyes, and another, crustacea, in which the
eyes--if there ever was any-have taken leave
of the body, and the body is totally blind, but
furnished with the most delicate claws, by
which the animal feels its way about. 1t
seems not surprising that in the deep sea
depths there should either be a very highly
developed apparatus of vision, Or none at all.
The light must be exceedingly small in
amount, and, therefore, If the creature is to
use it, it must have the finest possible sense OF
vision. There would be no natural advan.
tage in common eyes in such a medium
probably natural disadvantage, as, il il
could not see with them, it would always be
getting injured in them. And that may b.
the reason why these extremes of eyelessnes
and eyewitness meet.

TALKING OF PERSONS RATHER THAN
THrNas-T There IL with the young and old a
prevalent and bad habit of talking Of persons
rather than things. This Is seldom innocent
and often pregnant with many evils. Such
conversation inscnsibIy slides into detraction:
and by dwelling on offences, we expose our
souls to contagion, and are betrayed into
feelings Of pride, envy and jealousy, and even
when we speak in terms Of commendation,
we are sore to come in with bat at the last,
and drive nail into our neighbor's reputation.
