London Medical Record
In his recently published Sstudy OF
Sociology" Mr.. Herbert Spencer sssuils
a theory that has long beOn current with
regard to marriage and longevity. That
married life Is favorable to longevity has
generally been regarded IA satisfactorily
proved by numerous statistics, showing,
almost without exception, n creator
longevity on tho part Of tho married.
When the ratio Of deaths In the two
classes stands at ten TO four, and even
twenty to four, there would appear to DO
little room for doubt. But to this astute
social scientist the evidence, strong as II
seems, furnishes no warrant for tho cur
rent belief. lie regards the case as n
substitution OF cause for effect; In other
words, greater longevity Is not the conSe.
qucnce OF marriage; on the contrary,
marriages are clearly traceable 10 iniu-
ences fayoring longevity. The principles
Of natural selection work SO strongly In
deciding between the Bencdicts and tho
bachelors, that the long liyers are drawn
to the former mud short livors to the lat
ter. Marriage, Mr.. Spencer holds, "a reg.
ulated by tho ability to meet It's res.
possibilities The qualities which give
The advantage here are intellectual
and bodily yigor, prudence, and self
control; these, too are no qualities which
determine prolonged life or a prcma-
ture death, Anevcn more direct relation
Is to DO found in the instincts which lead
most strongly to marriage. The repro
ductiye instincts and emotions arc strong
In proportion as tho surplus vital energy
Is great, and this In turn implies an or
ganization likely to last; $50 that, in fact,
The superiority Of physique, which Is &C.
companicd by strength Of tho instincts
and emotions causing marriage, Ia a su.
periority Of physique also conducive Of
longevity" Another influence tells In
the same direction. Marriage Ia deter
mined by the preference Of women as
we'll a. tho desires Of mon, and, other
things being equal, women are attracted
toward men Of physical and intellectual
power, refusing the maliormed, diseased,
and iil.doveloped types. In the opera
tion Of those three elements Mr.. Spencer
finds all that Ia needed to account for the
striking difference Of longevity between
the classes, and declares that "the figures
given afford no proof that marriage and
longevity arc cause and consequences; put
they simply verify tho inference which
might be drawn a priori-that marriage
and longevity aro oOncomitant results OIL
tho same cause"

would make, delicious music, while those
possessed Of none Of the accomplishments
Of Instrumentation would dance to the
merry humbefs, All Of these, Of every
age and sex, could dance. Sometimes
they carried on species Of song called
talking iaWbone." In this two Of the
most learned would be pitted against each
other, singing alternately stanza, and
tho one that could hold out in rhymes the
longest was the victor. All those present
would gather around the musical gladia-
tors, and one would start in:
EbO, Edmun, SImou Joe,
Ding dat Higgah what stole my oh,
Dat putyest sheep that yaa nmy tock,
And Tnlgy stOlO my turkey cock,
OLD laWbOno, do 90 home.
Then tho other would take up the timO
and sing;

When ho died he'd SOt me FREQ,
Nov old maFSter'a dead and gone,
Here's dis daTkcy still hlllln' upC0En,
Old IaWbonS, do 60 home.
And thus they would 60 on, for hours
at time, until finally one or the other
had to succumb for the lack OF more stuff
to sing about, 1t has been a matter Of
wonder that this peculiar style OF song
has never been taken up and presented
by tho travelling negro minstrel troupes
Of the day,
The plantation negroes In the days Of
slavery sang eVeryWhere: In tho fellA ut
work; ut tho corn huskingS in tReiF
forms Of Worship in joy and in sorrow,
everywhere, they sang,
Who has not seen an aged aunty sitting
on the sunshiny side Of her cabin, on a
sunny Sunday afternoon, with her head
resting on her her hand, and her elbows on
her knees, rocking back and forth, cron-
Ing something like this;

Their religious songs wero all very de-
vout, and eyinced perfect faithlin the
teachings Of tho Bible, the great truths Of
which they had gathered by scraps from
tho familiar associations Of some OF the
house servants with white persons who
could read, and by them carried in sort
Of legendary way to tho feld hands. Be.
sides, they had a kind Of religion craven
on the tablets OF stone, In the Same
manner their songs sometimes derived
amusing touches Of the clasSic-as, for In.
stance, in one ballad where they sang Of a
horse whose foot struck u rock and fresh
water came to tho famiShed, which is
doubtless akin 10 tho old NEUROLOGICAL
