For the Waterman
DR.. Cuttings Lecture.

Messrs Editors DR.. Hiram A. Cutting, on
State Geologist, has recently delivered three lee
lures in this village, and feel it my duty not only
to acknowledge my own qualification, but also To
express the pleasure Of all his hearers. Tho lee
lures are sound and sensible both in their bear
ings on science and religion. | wish those ind
our churches and schools. Too many christian
people have nm opinion that true science IL some
how opposed 10 religion, and that il man is a
geologist, or a naturalist, he must be an iniidel.
Dr. Cutting shows this 10 he false impression.
On the other hand 1t too often happens that the
little scientific learning of our teachers causes
them to give instruction in natural science, as ii
they were teaching what must overthrow all com
monty received religious views, as mere supersti-
tons. lie shows that II is only false science that
can do this, and ii is those speeulations Dor
rowing the name OF science, that is the element
in modern scepticism We were all delighted
with his lectures as being honest and sensible,
scientific and reasonable, asking us to believe
only well sttested facts, 10 accept only well sub
stantiated conclusions, aud these facts and con-
illusions were by him shown 10 10 consistent with
reasonable faith and true piety. hope fire.
quent opportunities will lie afforded him Tor de-
liyerng these and other similar lectures upon
kindred subjects, and ! would commend his lee
lures to the churches Of Vermont as well suited
for instruction in matters which now even, more
than ever, are stirring the world
remain my dear sir, very truly yours,

Pastor Of Con0I Church, McIadoes Falls, W.
