From the Popular Science Monthly. In the physiological view, the law that links the emotion with its exterior signs ts the same that governs all the manifestations of life and force; it 1s the law of the equivalence of movements. ‘At any particular moment the quantity of nervous force corresponding to the state of consciousness called sensation has to expend itself in some way and engender somewhere an equivalent manifesta- ion of force. The expended force may itself fol- low Unree different courses. Sometimes the nerv- ous excitation is transtormed simply into cerebral movements correspondiag With a mental agita- Uon. ‘This ts what takes place, for example, when achild hears @ story that interests and moves tt.

When we spend the excess of our iation in external movements, in gestures, wal ing back and forth, tears and lamentations, the cerebral agitation is correspondingly diminished.

WIS ADAPTABILITY TO ALL CLIMATES AND CONDITIONS. ‘From the Jewish World. Ithas been frequently remarked that the Jew- ish race has a wonderful power of adaptation to allciimatea, Jews are. found in all parts of the globe, and seem to possess. a remarkable facility for acclimatization, even under the most unfavor- able circumstances, Mesopotamta 1s considered the mother country of the Abrahamic family, a8 well ‘as the cradle of the human race. Some years ago a small colony of Jews were found tn the ancient city of Sennar, inthe south of Mesoy 1a, and in the vicinity of aucient Babylon. Of tne sev. enty families composing the colony, one claimed De descended from King Joachim, ‘the rest trom house of Levi. A colony of Jews appear to have settled In China about the beginning of the third century of the Christian era, under the dynasty of Han. In 1704 Father a Roman € tholtc missionary, found seven Jewish families near Pekin. In 1686 a Portuguese Jew of Amsterdam, named De Pavia, discovered a sect of Jews in’Cochin China. According to a tradition preserved among them, they were descended trom a tribe of Jews who had quitted Palestine on the’ destruction of the second temple, Froin their long residence 1n Cochin they had become completely bronzed. The @ are not the same as the Malabar Jews, The Jew- ish traveler Benjamin, sometimes caliea Benjamia Il, discovered a colony of Jews, evidently of Pei- stan origin, in Hindostan. They were known as Babylonian Jews,” on account of thelr having migrated from Babylonia. ‘They observed the es- sential rivesof Judaism, and strictly avoided tnver- marriage with other sects, Inthe beginning of the seventeenth century a Jewish colony settled in Cayenne, in the West Indies, one of the most inhospitable climates in South America. Cayenne Was subsequ ntly conquered by the French, who made Ita penal settlement, and the Jewish’ coloay Was forced to retire to Suriuam. Notwithstanding frequent: persecutions, Jews are Siu found fu Persia, more espect ly to the south of the Casplan Sea, where tile soll 1s very fertile, Dut the climate very unhealthy.

They, too, trace their origin from the Babylonian capuvity, for, according to a tradition Still possessed among them, their ancestors setted in Persia in the Ume of Nebuenadnezzer, and did RO’ respoud to the appeal of Ezra to ‘return to Palestine. ‘Their mode of live resembles thatot the Persiaus in general. They hold the veard in bigh esteem, and Wear long, flowing robes. They bate several synagogues, abd obtain scrolls of the Law from Bagdad. The celebrated African traveler, Mungo Park, found a colony of Jewish families in the heart of’ Africa, about 800 miles from the coast.
