defined evolution really to mean the passage.
from the germ to The matura,lon Of the egg.
He declared that he had not seen nor bad be
heard Of any case wherein the egg haschea
an animal differing from the parent that
laid fhc egg. Did DARWIN or any OF MS
visionary followers ever see or know an egg
that die? The egg has ever been true IN i's
evolution, and the product of the egg mas
eyer been faithful to the parent. What folly
is il then for these scientists to campiicate
their theories with assumptions that are With
out PROOF, and fancics altogether without
fac.
We begin to-thipk that the Darwinians are
only o. gaaiznga party to divide and fight
the Big.endians aud the Little.endians again
And in this spirit they conduct their war
Are these scientists obliged to explain crea-
ton! 1t is hard obligation that requires
them to do what they cannot. The creation
and the manner thereof will never be known
to finite map. AS 10 that, DARWIN, nor
HAgcKE1, nor you, nor ], nor 40 one, knows,
| or in the nature of things can know. This
D .rwiniar fight will be short-lived.
EMERSON pays the following passing notice
to DAEwIs's aboriginal man, which re think
quite apr opriate just here:
The aboriginal man in geology and IN
the din lights OF Oar wins microscope IS not
an engaging figure. We are very glad thar
he ate his fishes and snails and marrow bones
out Of our sight and hearing, and that ms
! do!eful experiences were got through VIVID
| 81 ycry long age. They combea bis manc,
/ thev rared his nails, cut off bis tail, set him

unorirous 10 disown him. We must take
him +. we find lim-pretiy well on IN bis

an Interesting creature, with a Will, ell inVcn-

Thor Of THE C0mmubIStic Soc'ttie' VI
the Uui;cd Statcs," sc. New 1oik: ~
ErrLkIoN s. 60.
This book by NoRDHoFF was originally
published in the daily press Ill New orF.
MIR. NoREnoFF was commercially fair in
stating facts, but there is that in The social
order. or rather disorder, of the South at this
time that nc mat can probe in writing letters
Of :yaycl and observation. There are trou'
DIcs ard evil causes in the social system at
the Sou,A now which it will take, we fear,
longer than people now dream to restore or
der ard rec establish contentmcnt along with
Ina, public dignity which exclusively belongs
to white civilization.
Sir, NonpHorF's, as other letters Of travel
will, will tell you what is really happening,
ard nay, indeed, tell what road the crowds
are going: but where the purturbed spirits
will finally rest, where peace will hover, and
what sort of social order is to come out of
the present social chaos, time alone can tell.
There are unknown troubles in advance.
