THE FUTURE OF SCIENCE.


The following extract from Sir Charles
LYell's recently published volume on the
Principles of Geology is of general in
terest a
We are sometimes tempted to ask
whether the time will ever arrive when
science shall have obtained such an ascen
dency in the education of the millions
hat 1t will be possible to welcome new
truths instead of always looking upon
them with fear and disquiet, and to hail
every simportant victory gained over err
lror, instead of resisting the new discov-
cry long after the evidence in it's favor is
conclusive 1.-The notion of our planet
are und the sun, the shape of the earth, the
existence ot9the antipodes, the vast an
tiquity of the globe, the distinct assem-
blage of species of animals and plants by
which it was successfully inhabited, and
barbarism Of primeval man-all these
congratulations, when first announced have
been q source of anxiety and unhappi-
ness. 70 L., .s..fa.-... .#5 ~ ra,k <, 81

gins already to reveal new doctrines, if
possible, more than ever out of harmony
with cherished associations of thought.
1t is therefore desirable that, when we
contrast ourselves with the rude and SUI
perstitious saVages who preceded us, to
remember, as cultivators of science, that
the comparatively high place which we
have reached in the scale of being has
been gained step by step, by conscien~
tious study of nutural phenomena, and
by fearlessly teaching the doctrines to
which they point. 1t is by faithfully
weighing evidence without regard to pre-
conceived notions, by earnestly and pa
tientlya searching for what is true--that
we have attained that dignity which we
may in vain hope to claim through the
rank of an ideal ,parentage. hag aaj

The North Carolina Canvass. n u

The Republican Committee sent the follow
ing circular over the State previous to cleo
ton to apprise the Republicans of the Tam
many schemes:
Democrats and so-called Liberals are des-
perate; they are conscious that defeat stares
them in the face. Consequently, fifteen or
twenty thieves, penitentiary convicts, detec-
tives, ballot-box suffers, men of the blacklist
and most damnable character, have been sent
to this State for the purpose of intimidating
voters, stufing ballot-boxes, destroying the
registration lists, stealing and destroying regis
tration books; lastly, to cautiously and with
out warrant of law challenge sufficient
number of registered voters to delay voting
on election day, and thus prevent Republicans
from voting. Reliable information enables
me to say that systematic attempt is on
foot to cautiously and Illegally challenge Re-
publican voters in such numbers as will pre-
vent hundreds from, voting. This is a dying
attempt Of the Democrats to carry North
Carolina. These men are convinced that a
free and fair election will result in glorious
Republican triumph; hence fraud, intimida-
ton, dishonest and dishonorable means
are to be used to prevent Republicans
from voting, and in this way thwart the
will of the people, and introduce the in
famous practices of the Tammany Democ-
racy of New York City into elections in this
State. Evidence of villainy is mountain high,
1t must be detected and defeated. I call up
on every man, especially Republicans, who
reads this paper, before the election is over to
see to it that every legal registered voter ex-
ercises his right of suffrage. Call upon the
poll,holders and judges of election to disre-
gard captious challengers. Watch the polls !;
take down the name of witnesses to every ef-
fort at intimidation and captious challenging,
to be used hereafter. A free and fair election
will defeat the Democrats. See to it that ev-
cry Republican votes"

great a charm in his voice and cultivation of
language that old thoughts flowed to the audi
ence through seemingly fresh channels. Mr..
Inskip stated that these meetings for Holiness
originated in this way: Some six years ago
Rev. Mr.. Osborn came into his study in New
York and declared that the time had come for
presenting to the public this glorious doctrine,
through a series of camp meetings. Arrange
ments were at once entered into, which resulted
in the first camp meeting at Vineland, n. j.,
five years ago. The good work took the people
by storm. The idea of the leaders was to pre-
sent only the positive side of the question, and
allowed no discussion. In order to do this sue
cessfully it was necessary to hold meetings es-
pscially devoted to this purpose; meetings
which should be under the sole control of the
Origination and their associates This plan has
been thus far carried out with remarkable sue
cess.
Yesterday, President Inskip, at the afternoon
meeting, complimented in very high terms, the
Superintendent af the NJ. c. r. R., for his cour-
tesy and thoughtful personal attention. He
spoke of the care and promptness with which
all the employees Of the road had seconded the
of their duties. No baggage had been lost, no
accident occurred, and this great mass of people
had experienced only kindness and attention at
their hands. The association wished through
him to express their sense of obligation to the
M. c. r r. Company for their generosity in
transporting all the societies tents and bag
gage and the baggage of those who have at
tended, free of charge.
Too much praise cannot be given to Mr. AL
bert Clark who has charge of the Railroad sta
ton here, for his efficiency and care. 1t is sim
ply wonderful that no accident has occurred,
when at every train hundreds of people crowded
closely about the cars the ladies being especial.
ly and thoughtlessly careless Mr.. Libby the
telegraph operator has been kept busy day and
night and has given excellent satisfaction.
This evening will occur the closing meeting
of the series. 1t is designed to make this the
most interesting and affecting service of them
all, and it is announced that it will continue
until eleven o'clock. An account of it will be
given in tomorrow issue and with it will close
these communications! from the old Camp
Ground. A gentleman to-day paid through
mistake at the committees Office 500 bill for
81 bill. 1t has not yet been reclaimed. A
wallet was found to-day containing Lewiston
return ticket and about $40. The owner can
find the same by applying to A. H. Howard,
Hollawell, who will have charge of all articles
left on the ground. Mr. Nye is improving and
hopes are entertained that he will be able to be
removed to his home by Friday.

Concerning the Democratic Fallacy that
Shipbuilders are FOOLS.

We hold these facts to be as well establish
ed as they can be by any amount of evidence ::
First, that the Democratic rebellion struck
an almost fatal blow to American commerce.
Second, that the Democratic heresy that
foreign ships should he admitted to American
registry-a heresy calculated to give ship
building on this side of the Atlantic its coup
de grace-delayed for long years the adoption
of legislative measures essential to giving
commerce new impetus.
Third, that the passage by Congress, at its
last session, of measures of relief for the ship
building interest, was due to the patriotic eff
forts of Messrs. Lynch, Hale, Blaine and
their Republican associates, to overcome the
Democratic prejudice against encouraging
that branch of industry except incidentally by
means of a general revision of the tariff.
Fourth, that the clause inserted in tba last
tariff act through the vigorous exsrtions of
the members of the Maine delegation, allow
ing drawback on imported material used in
the construction of vessels for the foreign
trade, and for those used only two months
annually in the coasting trade, embraces a

This, the closing day of these great meetings,
opened cloudless, with wonderfully sweet and
pure air. The early prayer meetings having a
comparatively thin attendance, single line
may best explain the reason. Tired nature s

an extra hour under the blanket is beginning to
be appreciated by these exhausted worshipors.
T On all the early trains crowds came flocking in
to participate in the enjoyments and exercises
of the closing scenes. Everywhere NAV be
witnessed preliminary preparations for the fin
al removal. Careful housewives are collecting
together tho numerous smaller articles which
have contributed so much to personal comfort
Fraternizng, to greater extent than ever be-
fore, is being enjoyed. Dwellers in one tent
are beginning to discover who have been their
neighbors. This restraint from social life is
strange characteristic of these meetings This is
partly due to the request of the President at an
early stage of the meetings-that the people
would refrain as much as possible from social
intercourse and allow themselves to become alb
sorbed in the purpose of the meetings. The
other reason is that the general and religious
interest has been so great that personal desires
for acquaintance has been actually absorbed by
it. i .l. fa y s5 .a .s.a-s ..r OIL. .-t4 ...
