INTERMARRIAGE OP RELATIVES. By giving this as one of the remote causes of idiocy, ig not meant that even in a majority of cases the om:prlag of marriage between cousins, or other near relations, ilk be idiotic. The cases are very numerons where nothing extraordinary is observable in the immediate offapring oF fuch unions.” Onthe other hand, there are so many cases where blindnese, deafness, ineapity, idiocy, or some pe- culiar bodily of mental deficiency, or & manifest tendency and liability to them, if seen in such off4pring that one i> foreed to believe they cannot be fortuitous. It depends very much upon the health, education and similarity of disposition or temperament of the partics. Out of 460 cases in which the parentage was avcertained, seventeen were known to be the children of parents mearly related by biecod, This would show that more thay one twentieth of the idiots examined are olfepring of the marriage of relation. It ix probable that blindness, deafness, imbecility, and other infirmities, are more likely to be the lot of the children ef parents relatea by blood than of others, ‘The statistics of the seventeen families, the heads of which, being blood relatives, intermarried, tells a fearful tale. Most of the parents were intemperate or scrofulous;, oon, becauee the scholar does not uaderstand the words.t{ #s0me were both the one and the other; of course there were other causes to increase chances of inflrm of pring, besides that of the intermarriage.
