Existence OF God


Karl Blind, in IN article in the Vienna
Neue Free Press, notes the curious fact that
the recent revelations regarding Darwin's
religious opinions were only noticed by
three or iourof the English periodicals, and
that even Nature suppressed Darwin's letter
to Jena student, which Haeckel had sent
to the editor as part of one ofhis lectures, In
this letter, 1t will be remembered, Darwin
has stated verbatim; For myself, | do not

this testimony another item, in the
form OF letter written by Darwin, in 1873, to
q Dutch gentleman, n. ID. Doedes, of which
