The Color lime In Nature--.Why are
Civilized Races White?

4. q. WALLACE AT THE BRITISH ASSOCIATiOS.
Some very curious physiological facts
bearing upon the presence or absence Of
white colors in the higher animals have
lately been adduced by DIR. Ogie. 1t has
been found that colored or dark pigment
in the oliactory region of the nostrils is
essential to perfect smell, and this pig
ment is rarely deficient except when the
whole animal is pure white. In these cases
the creature is almost without smell or
taste. This, DR.. Ogle believes, explains
the curious case Of the pigs in Virginia
adduced by Mr. Darwin, white pigs being
poisoned by poisonous root which'does not
affect black pigs. White sheep are killed in
the Tarentino by eating hypericum criscum,
while black sheep escape; white rhinoce-
roses are said to perish from eating euphor-
bia candelabrum; and white horses are said
to suffer from poisonous food where colored
ones escape. The explanation has, how
ever, been carried step further by expert
ments showing that the absorption OF
odors by dead matter, such as clothing,
is greatly affected by color, black
being the most powerful absorbent,
then blue, red, yellow, and lastly
white. For few, il any, wild animals are
least the muzzle or the nose, are generally
q
black; and there is reason to believe that
dark pigment is essential to good hearing,
as it certainly is to perfect vision. We can
therefore understand why white cats with
blue eyes are so often deaf-a popularity
we notice more readily than their deficiency
OF smell or taste. But though inapplicablc
to the lower animals, this curious relation
OF sense-acuteness with colors may have
had some influence on the development Of
the higher human races. II light tints
of the skin were generally accompanied by
some deficiency in the senses of smell, hear
ing, ard vision, the white could never COM
petewith the darker races so long as man was
In very low or savage condition and wholly
dependent for existence on the acuteness Of
his senses. But as the mental faculties be-
came more fully developed and more i'm
portant to his welfare than mere sense-acute-
ness, the lighter tints OF skin, and hair, and
eyes would cease to be disadvantageous
whenever they were accompanied by supe-
rior brain-power.
