stratfed rocks in all of which occur fossils or the
remains of animal life showing the gradual process,
through ages of time. by which the earth was
Formed.
But we have not space to follow the lecturer
through his interesting and instructive discourse.
He evidently found his subject of too wide and
comprehensive a range for single lecture, and
though he spoke to considerable length (without,
however, wearying his audience) and condensed
his ideas as much as possible, he was obliged to
pass hurriedly over many Important features. We
will conclude our notice with the Summing up Of
his lecture in his own language:
"You have already observed that the act of ere
This was constantly repeated. As the earth passed
from one period to another, or from formation to
formation, many species both OF animals and OF
plants ceased to exist; and new ones were intro
duced. The Creator was continually creating, as
the earth progressed in its preparation for hig,
orders of animals and plants In the Silurian
Tor lowest deposit) we found the type of all the four
great orders Of animal fe but in the lowest grade
save one representative OF the fish "a very perfect
specimen of that order having been discovered in
this deposit by Hugh Miller.l In the Old Red
Sandstone the fish looms up as o magnificent order
the then monarch of the world. The, Carbonifer-
Gus system introduces the unparalleled vegetation
of that early period Hitherto there have been NO
land animals, to speak OF, and now, in the latter
part Of the second period, the enormous and indie
scribable Saurians huge monsters partaking of the
nature of beast bird, and fish, become the tyrants
of both sea and land and huge birds are for the
first time known; whilst numerous classes and
genera, and still greater number of species Of
the mollusk and crustsceun. and other inferior
classes, have gone out of existence. -,. 49,
In the third period, another change comes upor
the earth It advances in its capacity for sustain
ing higher orders Of animals. New classes Of trees
and plants are introduced, and the massive foliage
of the Carboniferous system is gone. The Saurians
away, and the Mammalia, higher family. are ere
ated, to keep possession of the earth until-som,
genera and species c.asiag to be and others bsint
created, but all advancing and improving "a
length, as writer says, "the diapason closes full
in Man!''-TDQilg, 81st. 5a-I3is eai d ~
