IN the first number of Longmen's Magazine Prof. Owen criticises an article of mine on Primitive Man, in the Fortnightly Review. In doing so, he quotes some words from my article, which are there given as a quotation from Prof. Schaafhsusen. He proceeds to make them the text of his paper, as though the opinions expressed in them were my own. On the question at issue-the Neanderthal skull-I am not competent to form any personal opinion; I merely abstracted tbe opinions of Rolleston and Schaafhausen. Prof. Owen would hardly have spoken in tbe same lofty magisterial tone had he attributed those opinions to their real authors, whose reputation can take care of itself. The respect I feel for Prof. Owen's work makes me deeply regret the necessity for this explanation; hut I cannot allow him to quote as mine words which I placed hetween inverted commas, attributing them at the same time to their real author.
