Since psychology has been taken out of the field of metaphysics, and has entered the domain of the natural sciences. it has develattained oped marvellously. The accuracy and stability it has. are proportio-nate to its development. Biology has brought about psychology occupied was not this change. The former positiona somuch to determine the relation andcwonnection between mind But anldorganism as to determine the science of pure thought. psychologists have studied the brain, anatomists have dissected nowv the cerebral lobes, chemists bave analyzed the different substances of the nerves and brain, aildits size, weight, shape, and specific gravity have been taken into account for the sole purpose of determining psychical phenomena; also the law'sof development have been applied to the plieuomena of the human mind. The study of -animal instinct, the growth of children, the customs, habits, and beliefs of ea7rly tribes and races, the study of defectives, the study of the brain and the senses and thelogical connections of ideas, bave is psychical pheall received their share of attention. There n-o inomenon and DO act of human conduct wbich does not come within the province of psychology. The sciences of ethics, of theology, of law, of jurisprudence, of history, of medicine, of pedagogy, and of politics presume a knowledge of the vvho, unless competent to analyze cor,of the human m iind. For the feelings, desires, and motives that prompt rectly and justly action, would desire to determiine the motives tha1- underlie liuman conduct or pass upouthe laws of rigbtand wrong. How more humaine would a person be in his judgment apon the acts and conduct of another if he knewtbe causes of tbem. How manv mistakes wvould be avoided in the traiining and education of the young, if pareDts and teacbers were mores conversant with the accurate could judges principles of psychology. How much more upon their be in dispensing justice, if they were less of psythe about pri-nciples more knew and personal experience, the cology. What material aid could law yers give in establisbingHow of in the psychology. study versed well were if truth, they many grave blunders could be avoided, if statesme-n and legislators understood more thorougbly the spirit of the times and the popular mind. That the larger portion of professional men know little, if anything, about psychology cannot be denied, and if theydo know on somaething about the study, their knowledge is either founded deit is Or common on and their persoinal experience rived from some book written from some particular standpoint. Most of such knowledge is incorrect and wrong,and it isone of the objects of psychology to correct these false notions. In conclusion, Iwill quote John Stuart Mill, wbo has given an should be ex:cellent statemeDt of the reasons why psychology'the knowlstudied. He says: ' Psychology, in truth, is simply dethat is there anything If nature. -edge of the laws of human serves to be studied bymian, it is his own nature and that of his fellow-men; and if it is worth studying at all, it is worth studying scientifically so as to reach the fundamental laws which underlie and govern all the rest. There are certain observed laws of evidence, thoughts and our feelings, which rest upon experimentalthat we are much of the to interpretation clue a are once seized, and, conscious of in ourselves, aud observe in one another. Such, for example, are the lawvs of association. Psychology, so far as it consists of such laws, is as positive and certain a science as chemistry, and tit to be taiight as such." FRANKLiN A. BECHER.

E. BEDDARD. 8°. New York, Animal Coloration. By FRANK Macmillan Co. IN the opinion Ofthe writer the most concise and useful treatise upon the important subject of animnalcoloration has very recently Mr. appeared from the presses of Macmillan&; Co. Its author, in this known favorably is Frank E. Beddard, F.R.s., especially countrv,among morphologists, through his numerous and admirwhich have appeared in connection with his able publications duties as prosector to the Zoological Society of London. That position. coupled with the fact that Mr. Beddard has made extensive collections ofmlaterials to illustrateHiis Davis Lectures " on the subject of wbich his present volumaetreats, is ample evidence that he was peculiarly well fitted to deal with the subject. The work, a small octavo of some 300 pages,is gotten up with all that exquisite taste and style which has long ago made the bouse ofthe Macmillans so justly famous. Many exrcellent wood-cuts and several beautiful, colored lithographic plates illumtrate its pages, they being especially devoted to giving striking examples "1 protective ofI"protective coloration " among animals, as well as mimicry,""4sexualcoloration, " "warningcoloration," "colora' and numerous kindred topics. tion as affected by enviroDment, Completing the volume, we find a well-digested"1General Inand ant; Index:of Autbors' Names."

Other matters more or less remotely beariing upon this part of the subject are briefly, though ably, dealt with, nothing of importance having been overlooked. Mr. Beddard has not remained satisfied witlidrawing upon any special class or group of animals for illustration, but bas carried his investigations into all nature, touching in the most brilliant manner upon the significance of the colors and coloration of " deep-sea forms," "'cave of animals,"and indeed plant and animlal growtbs from allof paxts various theories the discuss to he has omnitted Nor the globe. other authorities than those advanced by himself; in short, the entire subject convered by this highly inviting field of research seems to b)e br-ought fulily up to date. and in many instances the book even
