LONGEVITY OF OUR RACE.-1he biol,

LONGEVITY OF Our RACE.-The biolo-
gist, Bichat, whose intuitions SO marvel
ously anticipated the conclusions of a
latter science, held that the normal longe-
witty of our race should be an average of
So years, bearing his inference on The
fact that the life term of all known man.
mails exceeds at least six times the per
led of their growth. A dog, growing for
three years, may live to IS or 90. A
horse, growing for four or five, attains,
and often exceeds, an age of 80 years
camel, growing twice as slowly, may
live to 40 years and upward. An elep-
hant, even in captivity, does not attain
its full growth before its 10Th year, and
in India often outlives two masters.
Some Of Inc larger quadrumana likewise
grow very slowly; several varieties of
balloons for instance. do not acquire
characteristics of many maturity before
the beginning theirs teens; and the nat.
uralist, Brehm, mentions male chacma,
who, after becoming the patriarch of
his tribe, raided the durra fields of the
Zulu villages for nearly thirty years be-
fore he met his Waterloo il a fight vii h
the outraged natives. The males of our
own species grow for at least sixteen
years, but less than one-third reach even
the threefold multiple of that age, and
hardly one in 800 the normal skiold. -

PARLoR PHYsIos.-Au astonishing ex
pertinent may be performed with no APP
paratus but piece of string five or six
feet long. A persons hands being held
over his ears, this string is passed
around his head by another person, who
holds both ends in one hand. and by
drawing the fingers or nails of the other
hand over the cord, produces upon lynn
panum of the subject impressions of al
most startling intensity. Sharp peals
of thunder, changing into a distant and
prolonged rumbling, are effects that may
readily be given.-Arkansaw Traveller.

Anonymous Letters.

But the anonymous writer may de-
eide TO comment only without direct
ING. He may feel constrained merely
to hear his testimony to the worthless
ness of the editors labOrS, the absurd
ity of his opinions, the meanness of his
motives, and the Iamentaple folly of
his conduct. 1t is cOmical 10 think of
the avalanche of such letters which
pours pitilessly into the sanctum. The
charitable wastG-basket can scarce ac-
commodate the drifts. The wisdom
which proceeds from statesmen in the
BARRIERS chair and on the benches of
Union and Madison squares overflows
IN this anonymous correspondence.
1t is in vain that the editorial malefac-
tor attempts to escape Judgment. The
anonymous letter writer knows him
much better than he knows himself,
and his efforts to pose as a patriot, as
lover of order, as friend of progress,
will be Sternly exposed to the scorn of
mankind by Zone who knows" by
"Aristides,n by You know who" and
by that terrible fellow who keeps So
ciety in good order, "A foe to frauds
and humbugs."
The great public will be glad to
know of this omnipresent, invisible
policy, which regulates public men
and editors, givingthe reprobates their
deserts in the anonymous letter.
There was public man with a lively
sense of humor who said that when
ever he made a speech of Importance
or significance he received a letter be-
ginning uniformly, well, Pericles,
what do you think of yourself now?"
and proceeding to ask whether he was
not yet aware of the profound odium
into which he had fallen. These"
said PericleS, ''aTe the humorous reliefs
of public life. The Importance which
such worthy attach to the expression
of their dislike, the ingenious asperity
of their tone, and at the end of the
Illuminating document no name, all re-
minds me in another way of Thack-

Does the gentle reader recall it? Did
he, perhaps, hear Thackery read it
with his rich voice. and its rollicking
tone when he came to the humorous
passages? Does it not seem another
New York in which those lectures were
delivered? He is describing the fourth
George, but it is the writer of such
letters as PericleS receives, with his
pretentious self-importance. his per-
fumed air of superiority, and his air of
pompous impudence, who seems to
