at the present condition of the Earth.
The Earth is in frightful ssate: nne-,enths OF
IL are uncultvated, devastated or covered with
sandy wastes and stagnant waters. Vast Deserts
which are TO the planet what ulcers are the
human body-occuPy the fines, or equatorial re-
gions The rays of tropical sun beating down
continually upon these heated sands, nnrefreshed
by streams, forests or ycrdure, engcnders poison
Gus winds, like the deadly si,noom, and mias asmatic
exhala,ons, which poison The atmosphere, and
causes besides storms tornadoes and other terrible
atmospheric arrangements.
Owing to the neglected and uncu,ivated state OF
the Northern regions, the SHOWS and colds Of the
North have, on the other hand, extended their
| frisd domain far South Of their natural limits
Thus the Earth, a; the centre Ii purched By an un-
natural degree Of heat, while at the North an
equally unnatural and excessive degree Of cold ex-
lists These excuses acting violently together, de-
range the whole system Of winds and the Earth's
climate.
Besides the Deserts vast Marshes exist also on
the surfnce of the Globe which send forth their
Inias matte exhalations, and entnil on Man such
| frigh,ful diseases as the Cholera Plague, Typhus
and Yellow Fcvers and other Epidcmics.
How importanti that the Human should
direct their genius. energies and efforts TO pererm

and Hcrcucan abo1s wasted in the Crusadcs, the
Wars of the Refornation and the battles Of Nn-
poleon would alone have gone far towards remedy

Armies of Europe, would, together with the 81
gantc force which they could furnish, belt the
Earth with mighty links of Canals and Railroads,
and execute the grandest works of internal iu.-
provement.
Let Social Order be discovered and organized
which will lead to concert of action and unity OF
interests. which will direct rightly the genius and
energies of Man, and in which Iaduatry- will ls,

IA the Creator has assigned Man tho noble

trusted to him the cultivation and embellishments
of its surface and the porfccting of the Kingdoms
