1170 General Notes. [November, 
cases appears to me somewhat doubtful, I here disregard them, 
and place revenge on the psychological level which is occupied 
by the elephant and monkeys, in which animals this passion is 
very conspicuous. The same remarks apply to rage as distin- 
guished from the less violent display of hostile feeling which is 
suitably expressed by the term anger. 
Lastly, at level 28 we arrive at the highest products of emo- 
tional development which are manifested in animal psychology, 
and therefore at the highest of those products with which the 
present treatise is concerned. These are shame, remorse, deceit 
and the emotion of the ludicrous. For instances of the display of 
these emotions by dogs and apes, I need merely again to refer to 
Animal Intelligence. 
In this brief sketch of the emotional faculties as they occur i 
the animal kingdom, my aim has been to give a generic rather 
than a specific representation. I have therefore omitted all details 
of the emotional character of this or that particular animal, as 
well as the- narration of particular instances of the display of 
emotions.—Romanes’ Mental Evolution. 
Tue Measurement or Human Facutty.—Mr. F. Galton, MA, 
F.R.S., delivered, reports the English Mechanic, the Rede lecture 
at Cambridge, last spring, taking for his subject “ The ae 
ment of human faculty.” After briefly describing the art of mi 
suring human faculties as the “dawn of a new and wee 
science,” Mr. Galton said that his new evidence, "e pe 
taken some pains to obtain, showed that the actions © aye eae 
“ governed by cause and effect;” but if the conduct of ay a 
result of some external influence, then such knowledge as ñe * ng : 
obtained is of little service. Mr. Galton concluded by ee : 
that a laboratory should be opened at Cambridge to 1n 
this “ new science.” n anthropometrical laborato
