HunesA rgurnent Against Miracles.

This well known inGlei's argument was brilli-
anty refuted by the Hon. Edward Everett, in his
recent address before the State Agricultural Socie
" at Buffalo:
ga celebrated skeptical philosopher of the last
century--the historian Hume-thought to demolsh
the credlblity OF the Christian revelation by the
concise argument, 1T is contrary to experience
that miracle should be true, but not contrary to
experience that testimony should be false The
last part of the proposition, especially in free
country on the eve OF popular election, is, unhap
PLY, too well founded; but in what bookworm's S
dusty cell, tapestried with the cobyebs of age,
where theligh5 of real life and nature never forced
its way-ih what pedant's school, where deaf ears
listen to dumb lips, and blind followers are led by
blind guides, did he learn that it is contrary to
perience that miracle should be truel Most Ger
tanlly he never learned it from sOwer reaper
from dumb animal or rational men connected with
husbandry. Poor Red Jacket, off here on Buffalo
creed, if he could have comprehended the terms OF
the proposition would have treated it with sc0rn.-
Contrary to experience that phenomena should ex-
ist which we cannot trace to causes perceptible to
the human sense, or conceivable by human thought!
1t would be much nearer the truth to say that
within the h,isbandman's experience there are no
phenomena's which can be nationally traced to any
thing but the instant energy of creative power.
Did this philosopher ever contemplate the land
scape at the close of the year, when seeds and
graiis and fruits have ripened, and stalks have
withEred, and leaves have failen and winter has
forced her icy curb even into the roaring jaws OF
| Niagara. and sheeted aaf continent in her gilt
tering shroud, and all this teeming vegetation and
organized life are locked in cold and marble OBJ.
