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,

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,,
