,sss.1 basis Of this hope must coneiss Of the

mi, whole subject, being too largo for dis

W. ,Ier since VIC arp unable to wander over the
s ss,,o forcst. Let our theme be the Tendency

There arc two lights In which this progress OF
,in,Iu1cs may bo viewed; drst, in tho light of
sh,t from natural analogy ought to como tn
n,v; secondly, In tho light OF what has actually
i,ten n1sce In tho arena OF events. Great gen
,n1 truths ought to becono manifest; great
s,nera] truths aro becoming evident.
I. Il ought TO come to pass that tho succcB-
,,rs ctS,urics Of tnnn arc building up genurnl
ranrsl ard social and political scicllco; Aro re-
r,.liur the existence Of such wide principles,
hYause while nature Is showing har brpadncaa
d scheme in spiritual things should also be
making Itself manifest. Ono should expect q
upIoT[1 unfolding OF method. The aga which
dIcorers that ali organic forms are constructed

tgurec Of motion and power, should also Ind
ssmpe1lons or language would not Indicate
iiatrcuee Of soul. In tile spiritual and material
t,try, wider Eo,leralfzatlons Should reveal
themselves simultaneously and for tho one
