Mustard.

The seeds of two species of mustard
(Sinapis) are commonly used for culin-
airy and medicinal purposes, and are
known as black mustard seeds and
white mustard seeds. The -four OF
mustard, so extensively used as con-
diment, is prepared from mixture OF
the two kinds, usually in the proportion
of two parts black and three parts
white. The seeds are pounded and the
husks then removed from the flour by
sitting. 1t is remarkable that the pun
gent principle for which mustard is
valued does not exist in the seeds, but
it is produced when the constituents OF
the seeds are brought together under the
influence of water.
Internally, flo, y OF mustard is used as
stimulant, dimsilc and emetic; ex-
ternally as an irritant and rebelacient.
White mustard seeds are often taken in
an entire state as stmulants in dyspep-
STA. Mustard should be mixed with
water that has been boiled and allowed
to cool. Hot water destroys its essen
tial qualities. and raw cold water might
cause it to ferment. Put the mustard in
cup with small pinch OF salt, and
mix with it very gradually sufficient
water to make it drop from the spoon

Professor Flower, In recent letter
on the " Anatomy of Man." before
the Royal College of Surgeons, Lon
don, discussed mt some length the cues
ton OF his origin on the American con-
tinent. Till recently, opinions on The
early popping Of America had been
divided between Ahe views that the in
habitants of this continent were n dis
tinct indigenous people, and therefore
not related to those Of any other land !;
and that they were descended from an
Asiatic people who. IN comparatively
recent times. passed into America by
the way OF Behring strait, and thence
spread gradually over the whole con-
tinent. These. theories have had to
undergo considerable modification in
consequence OF the discovery of the
great antiquity of the human race in
America, as well rs in the old world.
The proof of this antiquity rests upon
the high and independent state OF civ.
ilization which had been attained by
the Mexicans and Peruvians at the time
OF the Spanish conquest, and the evil
dence that that civilization had been
preceded by several other stages of Gull
ture, following in succession throuph.a
good stretch of time. The antiquity OF
this quasi-bistorical period is, however.
entirely thrown into the shade BY the
evidence now accommodating from yari-
Gus parts of North and South America.
that man existed on the Western con-
tinent, and under much the same con-
ditions OF life, using precisely similar
weapons and tools, as in Europe during
the Pleistocene or Quaternary period,
and perhaps even farther back in time
