SPEAKING OF newly born infants, Prof
Genzmer say that the sense of touch is de-
veloped from the earliest period, and reflex
actions are readily excited by the slightest
stimulation, especially of the face, and then
of the hands and soles. The feeling Of brain is
only clearly exhibited after four or five weeks,
before which time infants ito not shed tears
Hunger and thirst are manifested IN increased
general irritability, with reflex movements,
which cease after the first week. Smell and
taste are not distnguishable to infants. Hear
ing is p6rceptible in the first or second day OF
life. They are very sensitive to light, and
after few days learn to follow the motion Of
objects by moving their head. Between the
fourth and fifth week the conveyance of the
pupils and power of coordination IN vision
are perceptible. A distinct perception of
color does not exist under four or five months.

cottage in Willie d'Avray has not been sold.

cottage and its furniture, and it was resolved
to leave the rooms until the first anniversary
OF his death. 1t has been unguarded save by
two ferOciOus dogs, whose bark would bring
out the wife of a guard Of Meudon Forest il

hours The street formerly called Rue du
Chemin Vert, and which divides Sevres from
Vile d'AYray, has next Sevres the sign AVE-
nue. Leon Gambetta, and next Sevres Avenue
Gambetta. The cottage walls have just been
whitewashed. They looked slOvenly with the
inscriptions scrubbed all over them: ~ FOOLS
name, like his face, is seen in every public
place" The house was put IN order as it stood
when midnight clock tOlled the masters end.
