I know that the public think very differently on this subject. But the public are frequently wrong, indeed, in my opinion, Majorities are oftener in the wrong than minorities. But, however, the majorities rule. al- though often the minorities hold pretty firmly to their opinions. But regarding the question of gold, perhaps no person has studied the subject more closely than Mr. Hunt, keeper of the English mining records. A few extracts from his writings, 1 think, will bear me out in what I -said. His writings and lee- -tures on gold are ofthe highest impor- tance,e and' ought to --itnore generally known. I regret that the space of a newspaper article will allow me to make but brief allusion to his pages. People who only consider the great quantities of .gold discovered -think that it must certainly be increasing in the *mid. They overlook•the Many arid mysterious , ways in which it, is absorbed. Large quantities of it -are used in the arts and sciences. it is estimated by Mr. Mc- Culloch that not less than $30,000,000 is annually used in this way. -The weekly ' consumption of gold leaf in reat Britain is .estimated at eot leas than 600 'ounces, nerly all of which thenceforth becomes completely lost to the world, For gild- ing metals by electrotype and water gilding not less that 10,000 ounces are annually required in Great Britain alone. In the British potteries great quantities are also used for gilding porce- lain and making the crimson and rose colors. The loss by the wear of gold coin in circulation. is estimated. at 4 per cent. This appears a high estimate, but I make it on the very best authority— that of Mr. Hunt before referred to. It is also estimated by several high authori- ties that nearly $10,000,000 worth of gold would be required every year to maintain the currency at de present value, and ,that about $45,000,000 worth of . gold annually is necessary for the arts, manufactories and purposes of coinage. But, over and above all that is here stat- ed, it must be remembered that vast quantities of gold are exported from Eu- rope which never again return in any form.Some may be lost at sea. The grew er portion, however, goes to India. The balance of trade between Europe and America and India is always against the two former. The produce of 'India is chiefly paid for in gold. and it is a well known fact that gold gone to India, especially • to the interior, liehlom or never conies back. The natives of that country are the greatest hoarders of gold in the world. it is incalculable what immense sums of the precious metal are hid away. in secret places by some of the far inland I never to beco all probabilit (ban Nabobs or Sahibs, e useful to the world, in any more. And all the time those Iedians are carrying on the process of absorbing and hoarding every bit of gold they can put their hands on. It goes on with them like a law of sna ture. This may be a kind of safety valve, a wise provision of rrovidenee to keep gold -from increasing in the world to( rapidly, and to keep it at a fixed stand ard.

The rhineceros was not so easily disposed of, and as a. number ef men gathered around it, and began to undo its fasten- ings, it was evident from its actions and. the movements of the men, that a row was expected. A blow from a whip in- creased the rage of the animal, which then became furious, and in effort to re- strain it by winding the ropes round the centre pole had to be abandoned, lest the ropes should break.

Just when the brute had reached the seats Dan Rice struck the huge animal severe- ly once or twice with the sjiarp spike of an elephant hook. • This turned him, and the danger was averted.

For some time the scientific world has not been startled and rejoiced by any very great discovery; but at the present moment we are on the eve of the publica- tion of one of the greatest acieetific . dis- coveries of the present age. The happy man who has struck on a new and rich vein of scientific truth conies from the Granite uity, and is a very distinguish- ed alumnus of the University of Aber- deen. - Dr. Ferrier, who was some time ago appointed, auecessor to Dr. Guy in the Chair ot Forensic Medicine in King's College, London, has just crowned the sttidy of years by a most happy and brilliant seriesof experiments. Dr. E'er- rier. was a succeseful student of philoso- phy, and stained the Ferguson Scholar- ship in Gasgow before he studied medi- cine. It was probably his acquaintance with Profeseor Bain's psychology that led him iSe-give special attention' to the physioldgy of the brain, and his gradua- tion thesis on the brain, for which he obtained a gold medal, proved that he had already entered on the study in which he is decined to acquire enduring fame.

He has caused tetanus and other peculiar and difficult states of the muscular system. -Curiously enough, Dr. Ferrier's discov- ery coincides with another almost essen- tial to its practical success. Anatomists have warned phrenologists that 'they erred in taking the outward shape of the skull as indicating the shape of the brain. the skull varies considerably, and it is impossible to say of any particular part that the brain ia such and such a ais- tance below. Nevertheless, anatomy has recently shown there is a relation between the shape of the ekull and of the brain, and that it is possible to know what is in the inside of the head without breaking -it open. This is most oppore• tune, for when Dr. Ferrier has mapped out the brain it will be as possible to diagnose a man's faculties as tell his shape. We are glad- to learn that at the instance of Professor Huxley, the Royal Society has come handsomely forward and voted a grant to D. Ferrier to carry out his experiments on monkeye. The monkey is the nearest aporoach to man in the animal kingdom, and as it is of course out of the question .to experiment on men, the monkee will form an ade- quate substitute. Altogether it is likely that Dr. Ferrier's ,discovery, beyond any discovery of the present generation, will enlarge the circle of human knowledge, and contribute to the happiness of man- kind. — D undee .A dvertkier Canada.
