To this cause must be referred the phenomena of old age, which interesting subject I am unable to pursue within the limits of this volume. Those creatures who are longest in reaching maturity might be expected also to be the longest lived; I am not certain, however, how far what is called alternate generation militates against this view, but I do not think it does so seriously.
Mr Escot. Your observation militates on my side of the question; and it is a strong argument in favour of the Indian, that he has no such enemy to kill. Mr Jenkison. There is certainly a great deal to be said against dancing: there is also a great deal to be said in its favour.
