All wo cnu say ii, they result from the varied nature of thing. They show, however, that there is In the original germ of plants and animal, a principlo which pro duces certain peculiarities greatly uirectlug, in many Instance-, their value for thu piiipoesofninn. This principle Is not only manifested In the characteristics of different spo cl , but exists more or less in varl I'lici' of the .saiiio species. We see it ellecl in the different kinds of wheat, and other species of grain in varieties of pea, lieans, apples, potatoe, etc., and in the peculiarities of thu dltfereiit varieties of the hog, and other domestic animal. It Is a man's business to study these pecul iaritie, and sccuro and apply them in thoMi ways which will renderthem most subservient to hid wants. . :., (Jeologlcal researches linvo nroveil that tho hopr'Is'one of the most an cient of nianinilfcrous animals.
