An Autographed Hermit.


One of our walks in the Island of
Capri will take us to a very high point,
on which are some ruins of the Villa of
Tiberius, the Roman Emperor This
gentleman, having involved himself in
great deal of trouble at home, con-
cluded to retire to this rocky island,
where he would be safe from his enc
mics, and here he lived until his death,
in the year 81 A. ID. Capri must have
been very different place then as far
as the manners and customs of its inhab-
itants are concerned The Emperor
built no less than twelve handsome vii
las in various parts of the island, and
made all necessary arrangements to en-
JOY himself as much as possible. The
villa which we are visiting was one of
the largest, and the remains of vaulted
chambers and corridors show that it
must have been very fine building.
A short distance below it, is the top of a
precipice, from which, tradition says,
Tiberius used to have those persons
whom he had condemned to death
thrown down into the sea. This was
not an unusual method of execution
with the Romans, and his victims must
have met with a certain death.
If any of us really desire to see a her.
NIT, we can now be gratified. for one of
that profession has his dwelling here
He probably does live here all alone.
but he does not look like our ordinary
ideal of hermit. He will be glad to
receive some coppers, and also to have
us write our autographs in a book
which he keeps for the purpose. A her.
NIT autograph-collector in the ruined
villa of Roman Emperor, on the top
of a mountainous island in the Mediter-
ranean, is something we did not expect
to meet with on our travels.

Colonial Races.

Then comes the United States, with
its vigorous and constantly increasing
population. However much it may be
mixed, it will always be Aryan at the
bottom, for all the heterogeneous ele-
ments are absorbed, almost without
leaving the traces of themselves, in that
immense hearth of colorization, which
has no parallel in history. The English
have been no less happy in the settle
ment of Australia, a colonization the
energetic expansion of which has not
been checked except toward the north,
where the conditions grow unfavorable
as the settlements approach the equator.
Hence it comes that, in the northern
part of Queensland, European colonists
are not in condition to endure the
fatigue of agricultural labor. This fact
has had much to do with the efforts
made of late years to annex New Guinea
and New Britain. whence it has been
proposed to draw the manual forces re-
quired for the tillage of the soil.
In the South African colonies the
Dutch have been solidly established for
some two hundred years; and, in a few
countries of South America, colonies
composed of peoples of various Euro
pean origin have prospered, though un-
equally. There are also some young
colonies founded by Germans on the
Rio Grande, in Brazil, which fancy
still needing confirmation has placed
in the rank of healthful countries and
suitable for our people. Reviewing the
results that have been obtained in the
colonies thus briefly enumerated, which
embrace the sum of the more or less
fortunate enterprises. of the kind. we
see that their success has been in in
verse proportion to the difference in
isothermic latitude between them and
the mother-country of the colonists.
But in every case it is not probable that
the organization of the colonists has
escaped having to pay, at the expense
of profound alterations, for acclimati-
zation in foreign countries. Men of
science, as well as tourists, have been
interested for many years in the study
of the Yankee type, which, according to
the general opinion, is not wholly COM
parable either with the English or Ger
man, or with cross of the two with
the Irish race. The peculiar physiology
of the Yankee is yet to be made out, and
| can not insist too strongly on the
great value of the scientific results that
might accrue from the study of this
delicate chronological problem. 1t is
averred that the transformations of this
type grow more pronounced as we go
from Northern to the Southern States.-
Professor Rudolph TirehoW, IN POpu-
lar Science Monthly for February.
