﻿MAN 
  AND 
  THE 
  CHIMPANZEE.

  — 
  although 
  there 
  is 
  no 
  common 
  standard 
  

   to 
  which 
  they 
  are 
  all 
  referred, 
  — 
  yet, 
  as 
  a 
  

   matter 
  of 
  fact, 
  the 
  peculiarities 
  chosen 
  are 
  not 
  

   only 
  the 
  most 
  salient 
  and 
  the 
  most 
  character* 
  

   istic 
  peculiarities 
  of 
  the 
  animals 
  as 
  a 
  whole, 
  

   but 
  they 
  are 
  connected 
  with 
  others 
  which 
  run 
  

   through 
  the 
  whole 
  organism, 
  and 
  with 
  some 
  

   corresponding 
  similarities 
  of 
  instinct 
  and 
  dis- 
  

   position. 
  But 
  no 
  such 
  defence 
  can 
  be 
  offered 
  

   for 
  the 
  system 
  which 
  groups 
  Man 
  in 
  the 
  same 
  

   Order 
  with 
  the 
  Chimpanzee 
  or 
  the 
  Ourang- 
  

   outang, 
  upon 
  the 
  ground 
  merely 
  that 
  the 
  

   limbs 
  of 
  those 
  animals 
  are 
  terminated 
  by 
  

   organs 
  which 
  are 
  anatomically 
  "true 
  feet 
  and 
  

   true 
  hands;" 
  or 
  because 
  they 
  have 
  the 
  same 
  

   number 
  of 
  teeth 
  ; 
  or 
  because 
  the 
  same 
  primary 
  

   divisions 
  exist 
  in 
  the 
  structure 
  of 
  the 
  brain.
