lowing conclusions from his extensive re-
searches; First, that existing savages are
not the descendants Of civilized ancestors;
Second .'that the primitive condition OF
man was one of utter barbarism;' third,
s.that from this condition several races have
independently raised themsevles.' His In
ference, therefore, is that the history OF the
human race has, on the whole, been one OF
progress. He does not mean to say that
every race is necessarily advancing On
the contrary, most Of the lower ones are all
most stationary, and there are no doubt
cases in which nations have fallen back; but
it seems an almost invariable rule that such
races are dying out, while those that are
stationary in condition are stationary in
numbers also. On the other hand, inprov
ing nations increase in numbers, so that
they always encroach on those less pro-
gressive.

HALFORD CURE FOR SNAkl.BITES.

We have already referred to the meth Cd
adopted by DR.. Halford, of Melbourne, for
curing the bite Of poisonous scrpents by in
jecting under the skin about thirty drops of
liquor ammonia, and to the fact that his
peculiar method OF injecting ammonia has
not succeeded in experiments In linda and
some other parts of the world In a recent
communication DR.. Halford remarks that as
the power Of the ammonia injected is ex-
pended. fresh supplies must be u.ed, ana
that the greatest care must be taken that
none Of the ammonia be spilled, or slough
ing will follow. He has changed his views
in regard to the physiological action Of the
person and OF the remedy, to the extent that
whereas, formerly, he thought that, III con

being caused by an alteration of the medium
in which they float; this alteration being,

JOHN HAREBEIl,S SONG.

o, there above yon heather hill,
Where tootfa' comes but rarely.
There is a house they point out still,
Where dwelt the Man o. Airlie.
He wore coat O holden gray,
His hand was hard VII labor;
But still he had a namely way
O. standin' bv his neighbor.
His bully laugh made men rejoice,
His words the neighbors guided;
But little BARNES loved his voice
And in his smile confided,
The word tot day that left his lip
Became deed tomorrow.
Hout man, the friendship OF his grip
Would lift the man o sorrow.
He was ma lond, he was ma proud,
He lacked i'll learnill' s;,lrly,
And yet ye'dp him frae "a crow1,
The honest man o Airlie.
His wealth, it was ma in his land,
1t was ma in the city;
A mint q honor was his hand,
His heart mlne O pity.
He's dead and game, this prince O. Fife,
Mute is his bury laugh er;
But all! the music o his life
That bides wi US lang after
His memory lives, the man may die,
That fingers bright and lovin',
Just like a star lost frae the sky
Whose ray survives his ruin.
CHORUS.

THE UNKNOWN DEAD.


BY THE LATE HtNRY TIMRo , OF SOUTH CAROLYN
The rain is FLASHING on my sill
But all the winds of heaven are still;
And so it falls with that duh sound
Which thrills Us in the church yard ground,
When the first spadeful drops ike lead
Upon the coffin Of the dead
Beyond my streaming window pane
cannot see the neighboring vane,
Yet from its Oil familiar tower
The bell comes, mutled, through the shower
What strange and unsuspeeted link
OF feeling touched, has made me think,
White with vacant soul and eye,
! watched that gray and stony sky,
Ofna,neless graves on battle plains,
Washed by a single winters rains,
Where some beneath Virginian hills,
And some 10y green Atlantic rilis,
Some by the waters Of the West
A myriad unknown heroes rest.
All, not the chiefs who, dying, see
Their flags in front of victory,
Or at their life hoods nobst cost
Pay for a battle uobly lost,
Clam from their monumental beds
The bitterest tears a nation sheds!
Beneath yon lonely mound-the spot
BY all save somc fond few forgot
Lie the true martyrs Of the fight
Which strikes for freedom aud for right
or them their patriot zeal and pride,
The lofty faith that with them died,
No grateful page shall turt ,er tell
Than that SO many bravely fell;
And we can only dimly guess
What worlds of all this worlds distress,
What utter Woe, despair and dearth
Their fate has brought to many hearth.
Just such sky as this should weep
Above them always where they sleep;
Yet, haplv at this very hour
Their graves are like lovers bower;
And Natures self, with eyes unwet,
Oblivous of the crimson debt
To which she owes her April grace,
Laughs gayly DER their burial place.

THE DANCE OF THE ATOMS.

Infnitesimal points, which seem indiffer-
ent at first sight assume special impor-
lance when placed III their proper relation
In this respect, the microscope is an aid. By
that of Mr. D. S. Holman we discern that
the small artery of a fish, invisible to the
naked eye, is made to look as large as the
finger, and the blood resolved into its cor
puscules is seen coursing along, each heart
beat accelerating its motion, and cores
ponding with those Of the human subject.
t.y his table lens, which multiplies l, 44O, OOO
times the cellular Structure Of leaf is
shown. The cells resemble brick laid in a
wall, about forty conspicuous in the field,
each overlapping its neighbor. and OF about
the usual proportion. Within each are lit
tie globules which keep up ceaseless
movement about the edges OF their prison,
like mice chasing each other around the
room. That motion is an attribute Of mat
ter is shown IN what is termed the dance OF
the atoms. Gamboge is pdlverlzed and
thrown into water, which is thus slightly
colored. With lens magnifying 1000 d.
ameters the particles are seen in a rapid
cycloidic whirl, which never ceases, and is
perfectly uniform, resembling a swarm Of
midges in the warm days of October.

I" Ii in my heart now could feel,
That risen again, We should not know,
What was our life Of life when here,
The hearts we loved so much below
would arise this very day,
And cast SO poor a thing away.
"But love is no such soulless clod.
Living, perfected it shall rise,
TRANSPORTED in the light OF God,
And giving glory to the skies;
And that which makes life so sweet,
Shall render heavens joys complete -
