CARBON IN ANIMALS Vegetables, in their growth, derive all their food from the mineral kingdom—prin cipally from the air, which has been called a gaseous mineral; while animals derive their principal nutriment direct'y trom the Vegetable kingdom. Vegetables effected many chemical changes in the food they took up, animals few. Gluten and albu- Men are the nutrient prine'ples of plants, and in the cherriCal composition they are identical with the albumen or the white of an egg; of the muscle of an ox,or it .e blood of a sheep. By identity wae not meant similarity, but positively the same thing.— The albumen of blood,ef muscle,and of an egg, differed in physical, but nGt in chemi• cal 'characters. Plants, in fact, contain within them the flesh of animals; and all the animal organ- ization does in nutrition, is to put this flesh in the right place. But animals take up with their food other constituents of place which contain no ni . rogen; such as starch sugar, gum, dec. These are nutritive priaciples;they do not assist in making the flesh of animals; at.d when animals are fed lon these alone, they die But animals pea* seas a certain degree of heat,aud their lod dies have generally a temperature above that of the atmosphere—about 100 degrees of Fahrenheit's thermometer. Whence. then, comes this beat? From the burning of the sugar, starch, gum, 4 - c. The air that itnimals respire is carbonic acid—the very gas that is 'produced by the burning of wood or charcoal in a ore. Charcoal is carbon, and animals take in daily a larga quantity of carbon itt their food. It is the burning or combustion of this substance in the body that produces animal hear. In hot countries, animals . , on this account. take less carbou. The food of the Ease Indian contains only about 12 per cent. of carbell while that of the Greenlander contains 70 per cent. The depraved state of the Green lander, who drinks train-oil, and eats 1;4. 10* candles by the dozen, might be pitied Or Wondered at; but it is necessary to his healthy existence. Another reason tor an 4 imals requiring 'carbonaceous feed in cobl climates, is,that the air is mure coridedst d, and the same niessere contained a greater quantity of oxygen; that gas - being the a gent which, by uniting with the carbom'and forming carbonic acid. gave out the heat, Strong exercise also demands a large stip pty of carbonaceous feod,en account , i c lte iitytell taken in during the hard breathing thus produced. Oxygen, when olive ralei , tt into the system, never escapes uncantii. ned, and would destroy the whole fahrie the body, unless 'a fresh supply of material was given. Clothes,by keeping in animal heat,renders leas carbonaceous food tiecees. nary in order to keep the body up to its proper 'temperature. It is very welt known that cattle do not fatten su well in cold weather as in hot.— The 4 - easel - lie this: The fat is a highly car boniied substance, formed by the animal from its carbonaceous food. In cold wea ther, Cie carbon in this food is consnired in keeping Lp the heat of the cnimal, which is, at that season, more rapid'y carried ow. This is illustrated in an. experiment made by Lord Ducie at Whitfield. Our bun.. dred sheep were pl iced in a shed, and ate 20 lbs. of Swedes each, per day; another hundred were places'. in open air, and ate 25 lbs. of Swedes per day; yet, at the end of a certain period, the alleep which were protected, although they had a fifth less food, weighed 3 lbs. a head more than the unprotected sheep. The reason efithis is obVious - : the exposed sheep had their cars bonaceous food consumed in keeping up their animal heat. Warmth is thus seen to be an equivalent for food. This is also ,illustrated by the fact, that two hives of ' bees do not consume so much honey when together as when separate, on account of the warmth being greater; and they have less occasion for consuming the honey, which is their fuel. Cattle, for the same reason,thrive much better when kept warm than when exposed to the cold. The cause of animals getting fat is, that they take in more carbonaceous food than they require for producing animal heat;the consequence is, that it is deposited in the celluß4. tissue, in the form of let. Fat is an unnatural production, and its accumulation, is not ne cessary for securing the health of the bo dy. When stored up, however, it dill serve the body for keeping up its animal heat, and by this means its life, till it is all conSumed. An instance is related 'of a fat pig having been kept without food for 160 days, having been kept alive by its own fat. Another element necessary to ha ta ken into' consideration in the fattening of animals, is rnorion or exercise. Every ac tion of the body—nay, every thought of the mind—is attended with chemical change, a portion of the deposited tissues ere thus' being constantly consumed. It i s on this account that when anint its pre fat tened-, they are kept quiet and still. Th e cruel practice of fattening geese by nai nig their feet to the floor, and ofOloping pi. germs & chickens before t hey are killed A r j,, see from a knowledge of this fact. When prises *ere given by our agricultural soci• sties far fat.and not for isymmetry.a.iim il l a were - istrictly prevented from taking any exercise at all. Mr. Childers found that sheep which were kept warm and quiet. fattens mitt laeter than those that were allowed the'open air and action. It is ve ry difftcuit to fatten sheep an I ox n in Ju. ly, on account of the flies, which. singing tbith, keep ttetta in a Blare of constant too. lion'.
