Early Traocs of Men.
Wlion qtiarrymon uncovered slabs
ol Connecticut sund-stono, bearing im
)ircssions exactly like bird trucks,
geologists roasonubly inferred tbat, at
tho timo tha rock wan forming and
was as yet but wot sand, there existed
gignnliu birds, or bird-liko animals,
which strodo nlojig theso nnciont sea
shores much as beach birds do along
the shores of to-day. The fuct that
traces of birds tint,' never been found
before in Btrata so ancient, much less
the popular theory thnt birds were of
inter creation, ata not invmiaato mo
iufuronco; ouo positive luct, as is well
known, outvalues any amount of ncg
jU'ivo assortion, and tho old theory bad
to K've way.
When workmen, digging a canal
roar Stockholm, cumo upon a buriod
noun n wifn cliurcoilt utt n, .m.j.'j.
like that which uncivilized people now
niako and uso, tho natural inference
was that some ono of nioro than brulo
intelligence had lived thcro before tho
earth was deposited. Had the curth
bcou slightly buried, say, six feet be
low tho surface, thorn would liavo
bcon no quoslion of its artificial origin;
it would bavo bcon counted tho work
ol man as surely us if a human sUoU
ton bad been found lying beside it.
Should the inferenco bo considered
less legitimate bocauso there happened
to bo sixty foot of earth above tho
hearth 1 True, that accumulation of
erratio blocks and sand and sea shells
gave unmistakable cvidonce of great
geological changes sinco this hearth
was lust used gluciiil action, submer
ge nco of the land and its subsequent
elevation all involving long periods
of timo; but tbat told not bo much
neninet the testimony ol the hearth as
ugaiust tho belief that man was 01
woro recent creation.
Now that such witnesses bavo boon
multiplied to an almost infinite num
ber, forming a continuous chuin from
tbe cniliost historic times far back
iuto tho tertiary period, tho cvidonce
is overwhelming; the "alleged" an
tiquity of man, its it is styled by those
who have never investigated the mat
tor, passes from the domain of hypo
thesis into tho region of demonstrated
fact. Tho visto of human antiquity
oponcd up by theso surprising dis
coveries is indeed vast; so vast that
even those who have most patiently
followed them and assisted in their
development are overwhelmed with
. i the thought of it. No wonder, then,
' I that thoso to whom il comes as a sud-
II i lcn revelation should flatly rcfuso to
' numit its reality,
y i As Mr. Evans remarks, in tho clos-
! : ing paragraph of this magnificent work
on tho ancient stone implements,
woapons and ornaments of Groat
Britain, "it is impossible notlosympn
thize with those who, from sheer in
ability to carry their' vision so far
lack into tho dim past, and from un
consciousness of tho cogency of other
(than tho fossils described in tho work
above mentioned) and diBlinct evi
dence as to the remoteness of tbe
origin of the human race, are unwil
ling to bcliovo in so vast tin untiquity
lor man as must of necessity be con
ceded by thoso who . . . have
fully and fairly weighed tho facts
which modern discoveries bavo un
rolled beforo their eyes." Vet, while
wo sympathize with the natural in
credulity of thoso who lack the basis
uf intelligent judgment, wo need not
itnitato their unreasoning assurance
iti contradicting tho deductions of
tuicnco while rolusing to examine
viluer tun ground ol llioir own con
victions or the evidenco of tho differ
cut convictions of others.
Tbo geological proofs of the nuli-
quily Of man, to wliibk Air. eane
ulludea, are ot throe-told cbaractori
1. Tbo association of human bones
with tbo bones of extinct animals, un
der conditions which provo them to be
tI equal age.
2. Tbo signs of Luman action on
tho bun.. uf extinct animals; tho
breaking of them to extract marrow,
alter the manner ot exmuii savages;
tho shaping and polishing of them for
Use and ornament; and more Inxlruc
live skill, tho tracing on ibem of the
outlines of mammoths and other am
tnals now cstiiict or driven by cbunge
of climato to distant parts of t lie earth.
o. Tbo discovery ol wrought stone
implements, weapons and ornaments
under undisturbed strulo demonstra
bly belonging to periods leaching as
fur back us tho plioccno period, if not
larlhor.
Detailed descriptions of tbco vari
ous ovidonccs, which uro marvelous in
iiumbor, may bo found in the olaborale
Wut-Us of Lycll, Lubbock, Wilson,
Kvuns, and other English scholars, as
well as in numerous French and Ger
man writings; or the evidences them
selves may bo studied in titu, and in
numerous rich collections of archico
gcologicul epeeiinens, by any ono dis
)Hsod to do so. The tun-poses of this
urticlo admit but tbe briefest mention
uf a few of the most uucicut of these
truces of early man.
First, for our own country, l'or
liups tho oldest skull yet discovered is
Vhu ono found in tho plioceno strata
of Cable Mountain, California., llav
inir no companion in its almost incrodi-
blo antiquity, it was natural at the
time of the discovory for mot to ridi
cule thu ago iiocorded it, and to lake
M'fug" in l''e noi lion that it never
mind Iruni the place alleged; or if it
oiu, it must have come tneto l irreg
ulur means. Hut when many corrob
orating evidences of human existence
during tho plioceno period are found,
oh they have bocn, in tho same strain,
under conditions which satisfy enroful
goologists that the strata had not pre
viously bcon disturbed, the astonish
ing charactor of the testimony is not
sulliuient ground for flatly rejecting it.
At a meeting of tbo San Francisco
Acadomy of .Scionco, in May last, Dr.
Clake presented tho society with a
number of perforated implements of
serpentine, which hud boon takon from
stratified rock near tho summit of the
coast rango, 1,700 feet above tho sea,
They were found cmboddod in ar
gillaceous shales, in digging away the
sido of a hill for tho foundation of a
houso, "and," says Dr. Blako, "wore
evidently fashioned by tho band of
man or somo animal cannula or using
the anterior extremities so as to fash
ion objects to meet its wants, and ap
parently possessed of sufficient intelli
gence to uso lines or nets for catching
tisli; as it would Seem that these in
struments must bavo been used aB
sinkers." Dr. Make pronounces tho
rock in which theso interesting speci
mens of primitive) manufacture woro
discovered to hoof an ago not Intor
than tbo plioccno period; whilo Pro
fessor Whitney, the Stato Geologist, is
of opinion that il is still more nnciont.
Anyhow, man appears to havo nnto
dutod tho upheaval of the coast rango
and tho attendant goologiral changes:
a remoteness in timo which makes tho
fossil skeloton found at Natchez and
New Orleans, and the human frag
ments under tha Florida canals, soem
comparatively modern. Yet at that
distant period man Had existed long
enough to overspread a considerable
portion of the earth, if not tho wholo
of it, since traces of such primeval
men bavo been found whorevcr thoy
have boon diligently sought.
Scarcely a decade has passed sinco
geologists began to admit tho possi
bility of finding traces of men in glacial
or preglaciul strata ; yet already hn
man bonosor unquestionable evidences
ot human handiwork have boon found
in the deposit of those early times, in
connection with the romains of sup
posed pro-human animals, in England,
Scandinavia, Belgium, France, Spain,
Italy, Germany, India, Australia, and
South Amorica, as well as our own
country; and tho moro carofuil
the search has been conducted the
farther back tho history of man Las
been" pdsM 4 fho dist1tt"t P"?1"
Every inch of tho "grbtlfifi i"l.9-ljef;n
fought ovor, tho firm conviction of iLir
early investigators that man could not
be so old a creature, causing them to
receive every discovory with down
right disfavor.
Such an upturning of all tho recog
nized foundations of history scorned
of necessity to involvo some hidden
error. But it did not. The facts arc
so numorous and intelligible, that tho
most skeptical inquirers havo been
convinced j and now a few of them bold
high rank among tho authorities of
tbo young science of nrchniogeology.
Among theso is the venerablo Sir
Charles Lycll, whoso caution is not
less romai'kablo than his courage.
After study ing some of tho earlier dis
coveries of human fossils, bo admitted
their pro-glacial origin, and thought
we might expect to find the remains
oi man in Hie piioccnu airntn. Writ
ing after tho discovory of such pliocene
remains, Sir John Lubbock set the
timo of tho first beginning of the hu
man rnco as far buck as tho miocenc,
or middle tertiary period ; while Al
fred Wallace carries alio dato still
further back, into tho eocene period;
this, however, on theoretical grounds,
since tho tracos of men earlier than
tho plioceno period ore few find some
what questionable In what is said
to bo mioccno strata, near Fonllovoy,
France, a M. Bourgeois has found
numerous wrought Hints in the stratum
containing tho remains of a long ex
tinct animal allied to the rhinoceros,
and beneath a bed which contains the
mastodon, tho dinolhcrium and the
rhinoceros. Simiiarcvidenccs of man's
presence and skill have been found in
tho mioccne beds of Aurillac, with tho
remains long sinco extinct; and at
I'ounanco, another observer, M. Do
launay, thus discovered a bone of a
herbivorous cetacean oi tho miocenc
period, which bears tbo marks of cut
ting instruments, such as must have
been mado whou tbo bono was in a
green condition. Doubtless theso fuinl
foresliadowings of man's presence in
tho middle tertiary will bo strength
ened by futuro discovories, as tho first
evidenco of his cxistonco in tho later
tertiary and quarternary period Lave

Hints to Owners of Watches.
A watch is a most delicate machine,
and a very littlo thing is enough to
dumago its system, and muko it go
loo fast or too slow, or to arrest tho
motion of its whools, and it is just that
very littlo thing that you don't tuko
any notico of. Show us your watch,
and wo'll tell you what arc the habits
of its ower.
A person of irregular habits will
spoil tho best watch in tho world.
Carolcss or inexact pooplo will always
hnvn wnlchcs lhat ao fust or slow or
that go both last und slow by turns.
If you can't bo ttoady and regular In
your habits, you need not expect to
nave a watch that you can rely on,
All the best watchmakers in the
world will bo unable to give your
watch that regularity which is lack
ing in yoursolf, and which you cannot,
thereforo, prccorvo in your wntch,nnd
which you destroy us fast as tho
watch is reguluted..' .For a watoh
should bo wound up every day at tho
samo hour, and as soon as "possiblo
in the morning. And tho best occas
ion tor doing this is when tho nnnuto
hand marks seven or ton minutes alter
the hour-hand has marked the hour.
Thcoperalion of windinniinawatcu
should novor bo performed carelessly
or roughly; but, on the contrary, with
grcut precaution, especially ut the
moment when you give the final turn
to tho key, Thon you should gently
modorate tho movement, so as not to
wind tho watch up loo light. You
should always take good rnrotofitlho
kcyholo beforo comincnceing.
It is not a good plan to carry the
Itey about with you, unless it is kept
in a ease; and never ourry it looso in
your pocket, us 11 is liable to get dust
into il, which yon will introduce into
tho watch, from time to time, in wind
in H it up, to lis treat detriment.
Novor, under any circumstances but
those of cxtremo nccossity, open tho
imuriuri'uiupui uiiuiiviunt wniun ceo
tains the machinery of the wutch,
In winding up tho watch, the hand
that holds it should remain perfectly
steady and without motion.
Tbe bands may be advanced or lot
back, when necessary, wltbout any
harm being dono to tbe watch, al
though contrary to the popular notion
on the etinjvci.
