" CARL SPRINGEL,
GOurnandisc.

DR.. Gaetan Delaunay, in recent es-
say on biology, addressed to the French
Academy of Sciences, devotes chap.
ter to the study of gommandise or
gluttony, which, in the opinion of the
scientific writer, is more commonly OBJ
servable in men in proportion as they
are lower down in the scale of civiliza-
ton. Intellectual development and an
immoderate love of eating and drink
ing are rarely to be met with in the
same person, those who are most ad-
dicted to gluttony being savages, ne
groes, idiots-all. in short, whose
brains lie dormant. In European
countries, he remarks, that, as rule,
the poor are more given to gluttony
than the rich, the peasant than the
tradesman, the women than the men,
children and old persons than adults,
the weak than the strong, fanatics than
free-thinkers, etc. According to the
learned doctor, the profession or call
ing in modern society most remark
able for vivacity at the dinner-table is
the clerical profession. First on the
list of gluttons, then. he places pre-
lates and priests; secondly, diplomatists;
thirdly, magistrates; fourthly, superior
state functionaries, such as state coun-
cillors and others of similar rank
filthy, bankers and financial men;
sixthly, independent persons, who live
on their incomes in idleness; and lastly
artists and literary men. DIR. Delau.
nays theory is, in word, that the
greater the intelligence, the more the
mind is engaged or the brain works,
the less disposition there is for gluttony
and following Up this theory he points
out, we presume from personal Obser-
walton, that among artistic classes, mu-
sicians, whom he considers Us the least
intelligent, are the most fond of good
cheer, and in the category of singers,
tenors are greater gluttons than bari
tones. With regard to gentlemen of
the brush and chisel, it is the painters
who are more addicted to inordinate
eating than sculptors, painters of what
is called genre being more y0urmand
than landscape painters. Women, this
young laureate Of the academy tells us,
are more greedy than men; millners,
adds the doctor-who seem to enjoy
the privilege of penetrating into all
the dining-rooms of France-being de-
cidedly greater gluttons than dress
makers. While readily admitting that
mental and intellectual culture lessons
the attractions Of the table, as general
rule, one is inclined to think that in
placing prelates and diplomatists in
the first rank of gluttons, DR.. Delaunay
has calumniated the church and dip!o-
macy.
