BURR's LECTUREs.-Mr. Burr gave
his opening lecture last night, at Assembly
Hall, to all audience OF our first citizens,
and made most interesting and conclu-
sive argument against the theory OF Oar
win. Tho subject of the lecture" Men
and Monkeys'-an answer to Darwin, was
handled in a purely scientific manner.
1t was shown that the law OF the apes
Development, from the instant of its birth
to its death, is not towards the human
type, but, rather, towards the brute order
OF animated life; so that the more the ape
is developed the farther he is off from hui
mainly. The argument on this head was en-
tlrely conclu i've against the Darwinian
thery. 1t was also shown that the
fossil remains of men and monkies
justify the idea that no essentially
lower or higher types have existed at
any previous date of the worlds his
tory. Permanence Of species, it was ar
gued, was the most notable fact disclosed
by all The known laws of living nature.
Not only the sciences Of comparative anat-
omy and physiology, but of embryology,
were summoned against the Darwinian
theory of the animal fatherhood of man.
Some portions of the lecture were truly
grand IN their argumentative utterances, es.
pecially those passages where the creative
power of Deity was dwelt upon as opposed
to Darwin's blind force of nature. Mr..
Burr delivers his next lecture tomorrow
night.
