    "...Le mécanisme [Winchester] est tel qu'on peut, à volonté, tirer tous les coups sans interruption, ou bien un seul à la fois, en chargeant à la manière ordinaire, et réservant les coups emmagasinés pour un moment décisif. Le fusil Winchester est donc l'arme à double fin, dont nous parlions plus haut. Il peut tirer 22 coups par minute, et 15 coups successivement sans être rechargé. Lorsqu'on le charge cartouche par cartouche, il est inférieur au fusil prussien et au fusil Chassepot, car il ne tire que 8 à 10 coups par minute. Toutefois, cette vitesse est encore très-remarquable, et, si l'on ne s'en contente pas, on est bien difficile. C'est sur le fusil Winchester, d'un maniement simple et d'un entretien facile, que la Suisse a jeté les yeux, en 1867, pour la transformation de son armement. La commission d'examen a fait preuve, en cette circonstance, d'un esprit judicieux. Considérant que le fusil Winchester est surtout avantageux pour la défense, et qu'une guerre défensive est la seule que puisse avoir à soutenir le peuple suisse; considérant qu'un pareil choix augmentera notablement la force des nombreux points stratégiques que possède la Suisse, elle a pensé que le fusil Winchester devait être préféré au fusil à aiguille adopté dans les autres États de l'Europe..."

    " Nous n'avons encore parlé que des télégraphes électriques établis sur la terre; nous n'avons considéré jusqu'ici que ces fils métalliques élevés dans l'espace, et soutenus par des supports isolants, au milieu de l'air, qui est par lui-même mauvais conducteur de l'électricité. Il nous reste à faire connaître l'entreprise extraordinaire qui a eu pour résultat de créer des communications du même genre à travers la mer, c'est-à-dire au milieu de la substance la plus susceptible, en raison de son extrême conductibilité, de disséminer le fluide électrique. Considérée longtemps comme un beau rêve, cette oeuvre glorieuse a été enfin réalisée avec un complet bonheur, et maintenant plusieurs contrées, séparées les unes des autres par la mer, sur une distance considérable, sont en relation électrique continue, et correspondent d'une manière instantanée, comme si elles n'étaient séparées que par un intervalle de quelques lieues. C'est le tableau de cette nouvelle et incomparable merveille de la science contemporaine, que nous avons maintenant à retracer..."

    " ...L'art de plonger et d'aller chercher, sans appareil d'aucune sorte, les objets cachés sous les eaux, est aussi vieux que le monde. Mais, chose curieuse, les applications que l'on fit de cet art, aux premiers temps des sociétés humaines, ne se rattachaient point aux tranquilles besoins de la paix. L'art de plonger sous l'eau eut pour premier mobile l'esprit de conquête et de destruction; la guerre en fut la première application. Les premiers plongeurs, organisés d'une manière un peu systématique, les plongeurs de l'antiquité, étaient des auxiliaires attachés aux flottes militaires, pour l'entretien des coques des navires, et la surveillance des câbles qui les fixaient au mouillage. En cas de guerre, ils opéraient contre les flottes ennemies. C'est ce que rapportent plusieurs poètes et historiens anciens, notamment Homère, Aristote, Hérodote, Tite-Live, Pline, Lucain, Arrien, etc. L'un de ces plongeurs, Scyllis de Sicyone, accomplit une action d'éclat, qui porta son nom à la postérité. La flotte de Xerxès ayant été assaillie par une violente tempête, près du mont Pélion, Scyllis, accompagné de sa fille Cyané, alla couper les câbles de plusieurs vaisseaux perses, qu'il livra ainsi aux caprices des flots. Par là, il contribua puissamment à la défaite du conquérant. En récompense de cet exploit, le conseil des Amphictyons plaça à Delphes la statue du hardi plongeur et celle de sa fille. Ces faits sont racontés par Pausanias et par Pline le Naturaliste..."

    " ... La cheminée est une invention du Moyen âge. Les anciens ne l'ont pas connue. Les premiers peuples dont l'histoire fasse mention, dans notre hémisphère, étaient confinés en Asie, dans les régions qui avoisinent le golfe Persique, et en Europe, sur les bords de la Méditerranée. La douceur du climat, la vie active et errante de ces peuplades primitives, rendaient inutiles des moyens de chauffage perfectionnés. Chez les Grecs et chez les Romains, la vie domestique était à peu près nulle. Le Romain passait, en toute saison, ses journées et ses soirées en plein air. Patriciens et plébéiens se réunissaient au Forum, rendez-vous général des habitants de chaque cité. Pendant l'hiver, l'ample manteau qui les enveloppait suffisait à les défendre des intempéries de l'air; pendant l'été, les larges colonnades du Forum les abritaient parfaitement des brûlants rayons du soleil. Aussi chaque ville romaine, petite ou grande, avait-elle son Forum, et les villes importantes en comptaient-elles plusieurs..."

    " Si quelques personnes pouvaient mettre en doute les transformations prodigieuses que l'application des découvertes scientifiques réserve à l'avenir des sociétés, il suffirait, pour rectifier leur opinion sur ce point, de mettre sous leurs yeux les résultats de l'industrie nouvelle, désignée sous le nom, étrange et bien justifié, de Pisciculture. Provoquer la naissance, le développement et l'entretien de myriades de poissons alimentaires, repeupler les eaux de nos rivières et de nos fleuves, jeter dans ces cours d'eau, dans les lacs salés et jusque dans les mers, une semence animale, comme le laboureur répand le grain sur la terre féconde, et de nos propres mains distribuer la vie, comme le Prométhée antique; créer ainsi une branche nouvelle du revenu public, mais surtout offrir à l'alimentation des ressources jusqu'à ce moment imprévues, en apportant sur nos marchés un aliment substantiel et sain, qui, exploité avec le temps sur une échelle convenable, pourra venir efficacement en aide à la subsistance des classes laborieuses: tel est le but de cette admirable industrie..."

    Forty years have scarcely elapsed since scientific men first began to attribute to the human race an antiquity more remote than that which is assigned to them by history and tradition. Down to a comparatively recent time, the appearance of primitive man was not dated back beyond a period of 6000 to 7000 years. This historical chronology was a little unsettled by the researches made among various eastern nations-the Chinese, the Egyptians, and the Indians. The savants who studied these ancient systems of civilisation found themselves unable to limit them to the 6000 years of the standard chronology, and extended back for some thousands of years the antiquity of the eastern races.

    The object of "The World before the Deluge" is to trace the progressive steps by which the earth has reached its present state, from that condition of chaos when it "was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep," and to describe the various convulsions and transformations through which it has successively passed. In the words of the poet- "Where rolls the deep, there grew the tree; O Earth, what changes hast thou seen! There, where the long street roars, hath been The silence of the central sea."

    What is man? A profound thinker, Cardinal de Bonald, has said: "Man is an intelligence assisted by organs." We would fain adopt this definition, which brings into relief the true attribute of man, intelligence, were it not defective in drawing no sufficient distinction between man and the brute. It is a fact that animals are intelligent and that their intelligence is assisted by organs. But their intelligence is infinitely inferior to that of man.
