A BETTER DAY COMING,

The financial and commercial reports
Of all the leading journals in California
concur in the opinion that money will be
unusually abundant in that State with
IN the next six weeks. 1t is confidently
predicted by these writer's that the mu-
tual result of plethoric money market
will be to advance stocks along the entire
line, as it is generally conceded thew are
much lower than fair price, based upon
intrinsic merit demands. Let those
who have seen their stock falling-falling
from day to day for a long time past
be not discouraged, but take heart from
the improved prospect ahead and pa
tlently wait for the better day coming
as Its approach cannot long be delayed.
The accumulating boards of San Fran
cisco will not be allowed long to lie idle.
and while the Goat Island scare con-
tinues real estate transactions in that
city will be scrupulously avoided. There
Is therefore no other channel at present
on this coast into which the stream of
accommodating wealth can be turned but
into that of mines and mining.

The editor Of the Petersburg Appeal, who
is in favor Of Richmond as the place for the
holding Of the next Conservative State Con-
vention, playfully offers to his Lynchburg
friends to cease opposition to holding the con-
vention in their city if they will use their eff.
forts to get him ticket to goto Lynchburg
return? Is possible that he has DO free ticket
upon the A., NJ. & o.? We know some editors
who have free tickets on some railroads, and
not Oh others but had not known that on

possible that editors over there are rewarded
as fayoritcs on one hand and neglected or
rcpudjated as enemies on the other?

AaAssrz VS.. DARwIN.--We feel as IL we
were perfectly safe when we have such
champion as AGAssIz standing between us
and the philosophers who tells us that all
men have been evolved from the slime of The
seasbore. We secuted DARwIN's theory
from the beginning. Our voice was weak,
but we used it on the right side. Now tnat
the greatest naturalist In the Worid nas
crossed swords with DARWIN, we icei, We
repeat, that the battle Is virtually over, ahu
that victory has crowned the ehor's ol 'u'
great scientist. In bis last lecture at cam
bridge, Professor AGAsslz said:
"Neithcr do successive generations begin
with tho birth of new individuals. but with
tho formation of the egg from which these
individuals proceed. We must look, then.
upon the egg as the starting point OF the
complicated structure of the adult being.
Il is. as it were, a sieve through which the
qualities transmitted by parents to their OF
spring are sfted. Whatever popularity
there NAV he in the new being has its foun-
daiion in the egg. Within those narrow
limits are circumscrihed all the conditions OF
change and therefore it is Of paramount i'm
poytance to know what the egg receives and
what it transmits. We cannot investigate
this part of the subject too closely. 1t is of
vital importance TO the question; and yet L
have not seen it discussed in connection witt:
the various explanations of the origin and
diversity of life recently attempted. The egg
arises in the maternal organism without CO.
onerat;ou of the other sex, and it can trans
mi, only what it receives directly from the
maternal organism, or from the paternai Or
ganism through contact with the maternal,
or from ancestors through one or both.
There has never yet been recorded an instance
in which an egg has grown to be anything
but being similar to its parents, and yet the
possibilities Of modification are so numerous
under these conditions, aud the range OF
variation so great, as to make US wonder the
more at the constancy of types"
"There has nerer get been recorded an IN
"stance in ,chich an egg has goDn to be any
"hing but a being similar to its parents"
That puts an end TO DARWIN unless he can
produce the single recorded instance that his
great opponent demands. Again, Professor
AGAssIz says:
! at is easy to fling theories into the world
broadcast, based upon few imperfect and
shallow observations, and palm them upon
those more ignorant than their origlnators
but it is one thing to theorize about What
Nature may do, another to know by virtue
of patient and intense study what she docs"
And the scientific world will side with the
man who by virtue Of patient and intense
study learns what Nature does; not with the
one who merely theories without being able
to cite one single instance in which an cgg

Ray the least, a little questionable; for while

that ii is a confusion of functions. 1t is not
for u jury to fix punishment, but to decide
whether the accused Is worthy Of any pun
