THE PROBLEM OF HUMAN DESTINY.
LECTURE Why REV. DR.. DEWEY.
The Fifth Lecture of this course, delly-
cred on Tuesday night in the Church Of the Messiah.
was devoted 20 consideration Of the complex nature
Of man, consisting of soul and body as adapted tohs
spiritual culture This condition Of his being gave
rise to the different ages of life In each Of these,
We nav notice tendencies, which show the care OF
Providence for the development OF character Child
hood is comparatively free from sehshness and sen
suaity IT. faults are on the surface. Instances OF
fasehood do not harden into habitua preyaricason.
On the APPROACH to manhood, great change takes
place. The looks, the voice, the temper, the man
ners the ntelec. show that new stage Of existence
has been reached. The era of Individual lndepen-
dent action commences. Deprived Of the guidance
BY hch be has thus far been reared man Is thrown
upon his own resources Old age succeeds IN which
he is prepared TO renounce this form Of being 1t is
the sacred transition to the unseen world. Under
this head Dr. ID. administered a rebuke to the pre-
yang habit of society, b. which the old are permit
ted to slide out of influence and notice. He would
not have society exclusively in the hands OF The
Young. II was bad symptom when different ages
were separated in social pleasures man ought
not to say am getting old will therefore retire
from the active interests Of sociey,and letmy place
be filed by those who are younger and brighter than
myself Old age even has its peculiar beauty which
Dr. D. said he almost inclined to prefer to that
of youth The form venerable with the dignity of
many years-ihe mind ripened in the school OF expe-
riense-the manners chastened by long acquaIn-
lance with human nature into considerable courtesy
thts naturally awaken sentiment of reverence
and can be regarded by none but vulgar mind with
cut emotion
The complex nature of man. moreover. places
him in society, with all its comprehensive and pow
eIlul Influences. This the grand educator Of
the race. Some of its features have been cOnsid-
cred unfavorable to human Development such as
its felfshness its inequalities, its competition and
It's solidarity But the i'll effects of these had been
greatly exaggerated. Wealth and rank are the OBJ
jects of strong aversion with many they have been
called in question by the moralist, rdculed by the
satiriss, and abused by the cynic. But they form n
pant Of the inevitable system of inequality which
prevails in the world am opposed, indeed said
Dr.. ID. TO the possession of hereditary wealth,
founded on a system Of entails. But where every
man has fair chance, no hurtful inequalities can
exnt. And YOU cannot DO them away. Make ali
men equal tomorrow, they would at once change
places, and the old distinctions would return. Nor
was competition 40 rife as it was often stated.
There was little Oft in the country. Il was almost
exclusively confined TO cities. The farmer was
content to Till his ground without envying the crops
OF his neighbor Ard without any competition, what

The influence Of sex, and family, was then treated
by DR. d. tcgether with the boLd and balance arts.
