Ing this part Of his theme he observes with q
touch Of dry irony. that Hunters so-called suo-

valley more effectually than Sigel's failure and.
- matter Of fact invited Ksrlys advance ON
Washington. which. by the hopes 1t rskindled
IN both sides Of the Atlantic. helped to sustain
the Confederate cause for another year.
The position taken by Mr.. Pond regarding
another vexed question will further exempify
the temperate and Trustworthy character OF his
decisions. Could Gen. Early have taken Wash
lngton on July II and IL OF the year 1864 but
Tor IN ill-timed collapse OF the energy and au-
dacity which had previously marked his inva-
sion OF Maryland2 Mr.. Pond In OF the opinion
that Early could not have expected. In setting
out from Lynchburg. to seize by a petty side
stroke the chief prize Of war. His real purpose
Il pronounced to have been. not the capture Of
Washington. but such an alarming DEM
onstration against IL as would break up
the campaign against Richmond. He must
have taken for granted that the Federal
capital would be reinforced from Grants
army. for 1t would have been an inexcusab,e
want OF gsneralship to have left that city
undefsnded. 1t was incredible that Early 8
troops should march on foot faster than q res
culng force could be transported by steaming
day and night from Fortress Monroe. As q
matter OF fact part OF the contingent forwarded
by Grant had actually reached Frederick before
Early came In sight OF Washington. Their ar
rival was perfectly well known through his
prisoners TO the Confederate commander. and
II IL therefore tho judgment Of the author oil
this narrative that Early not only acted for the
best. but knew he was acting for the
bsst. in Withdrawing his sxpedtionary
column. Mr.. Pond. however. does not omit
TO suy that could Early have foreseen the
hardness with which re5nforcements would be
despatched from Fortress Monroe. he would
probably have wasted no time In demonstra-
lions against Sigel and Harpcr's Ferry. but. hur-
vying forward would have crossed tho Potomac

In use. Upon all this he bases his prognOstica-
lions. 1t is impossible for us. within less space
than he has him-elf taken for It. to reproduce
all the steps Of his argument. We can only set
forth his leading ideas and the conclusions at
which ne arrives.
Tho form In which Hartmann thinks religion
ia destined ultimately to survive he calls Con-
crete Monsm. II we understand him rightly.
he means by this phrase to describe mutual
relation OF man to God and Of God to man.
which makes each individual human being
unit or nOnOs-twhence m0nisn,)-compound-
cd or concretod OF the divine and OF the human
natures. In this aspect God Is not a distinct.
self conscious personality. TO whom man can
say thou" as he can to another man. but an
unconscious indwelling power which becomes
conscious only in mans consciousness
through tho limitations OF mans imper-
lection. each individual man being thus
a functional manifestation OF God. Buddh-
ism and Brahmsnism also mako God one with
tho individual man. but they do so by denying
to man substantial existence. and represent
him. together with tho whole OF creation. as
nothing but IN unreal illusory seeming. be-
hind which God stands rs the sole reality.
Hence their nOnism is abstract. and not con-
crete. The ancient Egyptians. like some mod
ern panthests. held that man and God are OF
the same common nature. though OF different
degrees Of purity and subtlety men being
units by themselves. and the gods being units
by themselves. This Hartmann calls natural
istic monism. Our prevalent Christian the
oiogy teaches that God 10 Of one nature. and
man. in common with NIL other created things.

as theistic dualism. OF these various views

mann meets all the necessities OF the case and
supplies basis for intelligent faith.
Concrete monism exhibits also. the relation
Of God to tho universe a. being precisely like

substance Of which the universe. according to
abstract monism. Is the illusOry projection. nor
