years Of age, in the very general diffusion
OF news which is now possible, are ire
uuently heard of in various portions of
the world. Centenarfans are by no means
the curiosities they were q few genera
tons ago. Seth Perkins, who recently
died in Norwich, Conn, was president
OF a railroad atone hundred. Cheyreul,
the French scholar, recently died over
enc hundred years OF aye.
Probably every State in the Union con-
tafns its centenarian. and some of them
perhaps several People over ninety
years of age are by no means curiosity.
The late Emperor William, of Germany,
was nearly ninety-uwo at the time of his
death Simon Cameron was over ninety,
and SO was the late Dr. DolliDger, The
theologian. Our historian Bancroft is
over ninety, aud SO are Cardinal Newman
and Marshal Won Moltke
Ii so many eminent men can be found
who have lived to an advanced age, it Is
reasonable to infer that there are large
number among the more obscure classes.
An English writer ON longevity main
tains that genius is inimical TO old age;
but this hardly seems borne out BY the
facts. Carlyle died at eighty four;
Bryant at eignty-three: Professor Sir
Richard Owen is still alive ar eighty six
John q. Whittier ut eighty-two; Robert
C. Winthrop at eighty-one; William h.
Gladstone, Oliver Wendell Holmes and
Alfred Tennyson at eighty. The throes
and frenzy of genius do not, IL seems,
always prove destructive to longevity.
All classes and conditions OF men are
liable to attain to old age, though there
can be no doubt that some occupations
are more destructive of health and, hence
of long life, than others. = Yankee Btd de
