: CtmiosixiES iv HUMAN rFoon.-Man
kind baa been wonderfully ingenious since
its infancy in the concoction of edible va
rie tie?. Apart, from baked human thigh':
in Fpjee and boiled finders in Sumatra
??1?re are sundry culinary fashions still ex
tant which must be marvellously uuintel
ligibl? t'o a conventionalized appetite. No
that ft appears strange te eat duck's tongnVi
' in China, kangaroos in Australia, or tin
loose covering of the great elk's nose ii
New Brunswick; nor even that it ia startling
to see an Esquimaux eatiug his dail;
rations, twenty pounds in -weight, of flesi
and oil, or a Yakut competing in voracity
with a boa constrictor; but who won!?
relish a stew of red ants in Burmah, a hall
hatched egg in China, monkey cutlets an
Jarrot pies .at Bio Janeiro, and bats i
[alabar, or .polecats and prairie wolves i
North America? Yet there can be littl
doubt that theso are unwarrantable pr<
^dices.' Dir. Shaw enjoyed .lion; Mr. Dat
w:pthad a passion, for puma; Dr. Broo
makes aflBdavit that melted bear's- grease
a most refreshing potion. *And bow ca
we disbelieve, after the testimony of Hiprx
crates* as W" th? flavor of boilsa dog?
squirrels are edible in the East, and rats' i
the West Indies-if a sloth be good o

races as have little beef or mutton, for v
may bo quito sure -that, as MontesquW
affirms* there are valid reasons for not en

peaceable for eating giraffe, alpacba, mti

rapid passage, that it is not suffifcient to
I affect ibo inertia of tbedoor ta an extent ta
produce motion. The cohesion of the part
of the wood out out by the ball would hay?
borne a very gtjeai weight 'aid quietly upon
it; but supposa the bal] to fly at the rate of
twelve hundred feet in a second, and the
door to be one inch thick, the cohesion
being allowed to act for only the minute
fraction of a second-, its influence is not per?
ceived. It is ari effect of this same principle
that the iron head of a hammer may be
driven down oh.ita wooden handle by strik?
ing the opposite end 'Hi. the thandle against
any bard substance with force and speed.
In this very simpie operation the motion
propagates sc suddenly through the. wood
4>f the handle, that it ? over before it can
reach the iron head, which, therefore, by
ita own ?eight, ?i?ks lower on the handle at
every ?low which drives tbe handle up. -
FOOTE AW DBXXTOK--The animosity be>
tween Foote, of Mississippi, and Benton, ol
Missouri, was well known. It is a mattel
of record, and there can be ne want o
delicacy in alluding to a historical fact.
Oa^the'laxt night of that session whicl
closed the Senatorial career of those gen
tientan respectively, Foote obtained the
floor and occupied the^final hour with J
bitter and eloquent review of the life anc
acts of his old enemy. Benton sat un
tuoi-ed; his massive features betrayed nc
sign of anxiety,; yqp would have though
him asleep but for the regular motion o
his aye-lids. As the h an cf on the clod
pointed to midnight, he quietly remarket
to a bystander:
Cleave the Senate of the United Stifte?
footeif out of it; footed out of it, sir; but .no
kicked out!
Foote had said that he would write i
little book in which Beuton would fjgun
very largely. Benton heard of .-?this. an(
replied in his characteristic way to tiie in
formant:*
Tell Foote that I will write, a veiey larg
book, in which he shall not figure at al!.
