Individual Inequalities.
All different individuals. of every
species, however' like they mayi be in
their first stages' of life, become itrthe
further course of their existence less like
to one another. 'They deviate from one
another in more or less important
peculiarities, and this is a natural con-
sequence of the different conditions un-
der which the individuals live. There
are no two, single individuals of any
species which call complete their life un-
der exactly! the 'same external circum-
stances. The vital conditions of nutri-
tion, of Moisture, air, light; further, the
vital conditione of society, the inter-
relations with surrounding individuals
of the same or other species, are idiffer-
mit in every individual being;'and this
difference first affects the functions, and
later changes the form of every individual
organization.t
If the children of a human family
show, even at the beginning, certain in-
dividual inequalities which we may con-
sider as the consequence of individual
(indirect) adaptation, they will appear
still more different at a later period of
life when each child has passed through
different experiences, and has adapted
itself to different conditions of life. The
original differeuce of th,e individual pro-
cesses of development evidently,becomes
greater the longer the life lasts and the
more various the external. conditions
which influence the separate individuals.
This may be demonstrated in the
simplest manner in man, as well as in
domestic animals and cultivated plants,
in which the vital conditions may be
arbitrarily modified. 1
Two brothers, of whom one is brought
up. as a workman, and the Other :as a
pnest, develop quite differently in body
as vell as in mind ; in like manner, two
dogs of one and the same birth, of which
ene is trained as at sporting dog, and the
Other chained', up as a watch dog. The
same observetiou may also be readily
made as to organic individuals in a na-
tural state. ! If, for instance, one care-
fully- compares all the trees in a, fir or
beech forest, which consists of trees of a
single species, one finds that among all
the hundreds or thousands of trees,
there are not two individual trees com-
pletely agreeing in size of trunk ' and
other parts, in the number of branches,
leaves, Sse.! i
1
Everywhere we find individual in-
equalities which, in part at least, are
merely the consequences of the different
conditions ,of life under which the trees
have developed. It is true we can never
say with certainty how much of this
dissimiliarity in all the individuals of
every species may have , originally
been caused by indirect individual
adaptation, and how much of it acquired
under the influence of direct or universal
adaptation,
Astonishing Vitality of a Dog-.
About six weeksago a gentleman who
prides himself on having one of the best rab-
bit dogs in the. city went rabbit hunting
north ef the city. . The dog soon struck
the trail of gam, and made chaie. Con.
trary to expectation he failed to return.
Search was, made for him through the
whole neighborhood, but with no succese,
and the ownerof that dog went home
with a heavy heart. Aboot three days
ago a man passing an oldmineral hole
heard a noise coming from the bottom of
the shaft. A windlass was. procured a
man went down, discovered l the living
skeleton of a, dog, which the kindly
brought to the surface. It was soon
found that the dog 4e1onged. to the Du-
buque gentleman, and was •brought to
him. He had lost his good looks and
changed so radically in appearance that
his master had; grave doubts as to his
identity, but the dog's recognition qf him
and evident delight at seeing him again
satisfied him that he was his dog. When
Y he fell into the Mineral hole he weighed
t- 47 pounds; when he was rescued he
'st weighed only 2( pounds. He lost flesh
d but gained an appetite,for the first thing
e he swallowed was a chunk of bread seek -
d ed in whiskey. He then took a long
sleep and was furnished with something
strongeo•end is now in a fair way to re-
gain his former 'sleek 'look. Neither a
fall of 70 feet nor 30 days starvation could
kill that dog. —Dubuque, (Ia.)

A. Desperado's Love Letter.
About three week; ago the Gilletpie
County (Texas) Mounted Rifles captured
one Donah(a and three other men, who
bad robbed a Mail stage between Auetin
and Fredricksburg. On the person
of Donaho was .found an inco.e-
plete letter, which stamps him as one of
the Most romantic and sentimental sort
of robbers read of in dime novels. The
. young man will have to serve five or ten
years in the Penitentiary before he can

I Anna Parson e and claire her hand. His
loving epistle reads thus :

A litre ge epidem c among horses has
and ther are, it is stated,
i
made its appearanc in some parts of
Scotland,
more than five hun i red horses suffering
from its effects in El inburgh. The dis-
ease commences w th great weakness
and swelling of the yes and limbs, the
left eye in the majo ity of eases being
,affeoted niore than t e right. There' is
also freq eritly inte tinal disorder, and
spots appear on the tongue as though
from blood poisoning. The attack. lasts
on the average from ve to twelve days.
Opinions appear to d'ffer as to whether
it is infectious or not; at any rate it is
spreading 'rapidly, an affects horses in.
discriminately in all classes of stables.
One case has occurred of• a cow suffering
from it, and, as the nimal was stalled
beside a pony which bad also, suffered
from it, there seems r ason to fear that
the disease must be nfectious. On the
other hand, instances are mentionecj of
horses escaping the isease altogether,
although Occupying s ables ivhere several
other horses were atIcked. The damp-
ness of the atmosphe e which has lately
prevailed ils supposed_. o have originated
the epidemic.

" What is meant b 'a kettle of fish?'"
asks a cor espondent. In days gone by
when the cotch riveis were so stocked
with salaam that dom stic servants stip-
ulated they should not be supplied with
that kind f fish more than once a day,
large partijis were wo s t to picnic by a
river. Here a huge c uldron, half-filled
with water well Beau') ed with salt, was
erected ov r an extern orized fire -place.
As soon as }this brine b gan to boiasalmon
—which htid been cau ht or rather "gud-
died " in the -rive e --were plumped
into the oauldron or kettle, and when
properly. "made ready' the savory dish
was handed round th company. This
was considered the b st way to enjoy
salmon—just as, now- -days, gastronom-
ers declare that the onl sauce that should
be used in its consump ion is a little' of
the water in which_ it had been boiled.
But in the olden days he al- fresco enter
tainments were net conftned to fish . There
was a flowing bowl as ell as a cauldron
and the state in i hich many a reveller
got home led to the ex ression,-" He has
made 'a fine kettle of ei h of it.' "—Lon-
don Scottish Journal.
The Crippled paiTow.
Once a poor crippled eparrow fell to
the ground, and flutter d about in a vain
attenipt to regain a jlace of safety.
Some of its mates ga hered around it,
and seemed eager to help it; but they
did not know what to.do. Their chirp-
ing drew together a great many 4 the
sparrow tribe. One thought this thing
ought to be done, another thought that.
Some tried to.. lift the helpless bird by
catching its wings in their beaks : but
this failed, and such a chattering and
scolding as took place! Presently .two
of the birds flew away, but soon came
back with a twig six or seven inches long
and an eighth of an inchl thick. This
was dropped before the poor little crip-
ple, and each end was picked up by a
sparrow, and held so that the lame bird
was able to catch the m'cidle of the twice
in its beak.1 Then th crippled bird,
with the aid of the oth r two, flew off,
till they payee to a wa I covered with
iv -y, where I it had it home. There
it chirped to show hosk glad it was.
And the other sparrows followed, as if
to share in the pleasurq of the rescue.
