The autopsy of Professor Agassiz by
DR.. Morrill, Wyman indicates that the dis.
ease which caused the death Of the great
naturalist was Of long standing. Obstruc.
tons which were probably originally
formed in the region of the heart, were
carried by the arteries into the brain, and
there gradually disorganized and at length
checked the circulation. These morbid
processes may have begun years ago, with
an inflammation of the lining membrane
Of the lungs, which has LEFT its traces.
The autopsy was made in accordance with
the wishes OF Professor Agassiz, long
since placed on record in death as in life
he had devoted himself to the interests of
science. 1t is a melancholy satisfaction to
know that no human skill could have saved
his life. as such disease is far too deeply
situated for surgical aid.

The women get on very slowly in
their effort to take hand in the BUSH
ness Of the world. That they get on at
all is a striking proof of their mental
capacity and energy. The obstacles be-
fore them are greater than those which
stand in the way of men. AS the rule,
if man is able to do a thing he is per-
mitted to do it. But with woman it is
different. After she has fitted herself
for any business, and often after she has
made an actual demonstration of Ter
ability, there still remains the question,
not Of opportunity, for that generally
comes of itself to the one best prepared
for it, but Of whether or not she shall
be permitted to make use of the oppor.
tunity. Her failures, therefore, are as
often due to the impossibility Of going
outside Of the limits which custom has
set to her activities, as to the lack O
special fitness for the work she would
like to do.

The old adage that no house was ever
big enough for two families. was probably
never more forcibly illustrated, if indeed it
ever could be, than it was in the case of
Chang and Eng, the Siamese twins. OF
late years, owing to difficulty about dress
between their wives, who were also sisters,
the brothers found it necessary to keep up
two establishments-one for each family.
These were situated some two miles apart,
and it was the unvarying custom of the
twins to spend exactly three days and a
half Of every week at each house. So
vigorously was this rule observed that not
even sickness, marriage. or death in either
family was ever allowed to disturb the di-
vision of time they had agreed upon. And,
curiously enough. it was in making the trip
to Eng's house that Chang caught the vio-
lent cold which fastened if it did not i'm
mediately cause their dual death.

A TRIAL Of something over twelve
years has demonstrated in England that
the postal savings bank system is COM
plete success. 1t furnishes absolute Sc
curity to depositors, grants small rate of
interest, permits money to be drawn in
whatever portion of the kingdom the de-
positor may happen to be, and encourages
thrift among the poorer class by inducing
them to lay by their extra shillings. The
proof of the pudding is in the eating, and
the proof of the usefulness of the English
postal bank is in the fact that it is yearly
increasing its business. Its deposits
amount to one and half millions, and the
average amount of each account is thir

petitions that those states give land to and

These gentlemen had promised to lay the
matter before the emigration committee Of
the House of Representatives. If the Inter-
nationalists made no more extravagant de.
mands than these, public sentiment could
have some rstence with them.

Of New York city, in which Horace Gree

tlemen, with the exception of Greeley, are
made defendants in the suit, Chas. Storm
and Richard H. Manning, the executors Of
Greeley, appearing for the defendants on
the part Of Greeley's estate. The suit is
taken on the ground that Jones is respon-
sible for the alleged defalcation of more
than $4,000 by John w. Norton, cx-su-
perintendent of the money order depart
ment of the postofice of New York city
under Mr.. Jones. The result of the sui
will be looked for with much interest, as i
will furnish an important precedent in re
gard to the legal liability of principals fol
the defacations of subordinates.
