range, by Col. W. Kincaid; The Ethnology of Germany, Part Iv: 
the Saxons of nether Saxony, Section 11, by H. H. Howorth. 
Mr. Tylor’s address is a model for all such orations. Going 
beyond the custom of his predecessors, he commences with a 
tribute to the work of foreign societies, but, alas, finds no good 
word for American laborers. Following this we are presented 
with a résumé of work done by British anthropologists. Mr. 
Fison, in a letter to Mr. Tylor, gives a detailed statement of class 
marriages in Australia, accompanied with a chart. Mr. Farrer 
develops the idea that among savage races there are laws of war; 
that the instances are rare “where no notice nor declaration of 
war is made, but one tribe falls on another with no more warning 
than would be considered obligatory by a pack of wolves.” The 
tribes described by Mr. Simson dwell in Ecuador, The author 
has been for years a resident of the country, and speaks from 
personal observation. The Bheel tribes described in Col. Kin- 
caids paper live on the hills and in the villages bordering on the 
Vindhya mountains, a range stretching across Hindostan from 
east to west, just north of the Nerbudda river, extending from 
22° to 25° N. The village Bheels are employed by the people 
among whom they dwell as trackers of stolen property, whic 
custom is well described by the author, as well as the methods of 
oath taking, superstitions and marriage ceremonies. 
Mr. Howorth’s paper occupies thirty pages of the Yournal and 
is a continuation of the author’s exhaustive monographs upon the 
tribes inhabiting Europe in the earliest classical times.
