what may be his future destiny.

BuRKE's LECTURE-The lecture of W S. Burke at the
Court House, last Friday night tolerably well at
tended and received with various degrees of salts
faction dissatisfaction according to the humOr of the
listener.
The speaker began by saying that the lecture not
as many supposed a burlesque upon women but was
satire upon Darwnism and the theories OF
modern scientists. Darwin held that had ascend

this was all well enough if they had the oyster to begin
with but he thought that great being that was able
to create life oyster just competent to
ate perfect man. The dust and rib theory of Moses
was Just unsatisfactory.
The speaker then asked hs audience TO imagine that
they wer. the jewellers the earth about hundred
thousand years hence and that celebrated scientist
had making explorations thousands of feet under
ground among the remains of ancient American city

Moses and Abraham were looked upon cOtemporane-
Gus of the United States and history poet

American history and literature. In his excavations, he
had found certain FOSSILS from which he proceeded to
construct the American period, on the same
principle that the scientists day will occasionally
