Mound Building and Religious Belief.

Among the earliest Of religious be-
lefs is Animsm, or nature worship.
Next to this in the rising scale is
animal worship, and following il is
sun worship. Animism is the religion
Of the savage and hunter races, who
are generally wanderers. Animal
worship is the religion of the sedentary
tribes and is peculiar to a condition
where agriculture and permanent
village life appear. sun worship is
the religion Of village tribes and is
peculiar to the stage which borders
upon the civilized 1t is a religion
which belongs to the status of barbar-
i,m, but often passes over into the
civilized state Now, Judging from
all circumstances and signs, we should
say that the emblematic mound builders
were in a transition state, between the
conditions of sayagery and barDarism,
and that they had reached the point
where animal worship is very preva-
lent. This habit of fixing upon the
scenes Of nature and Transforming
them into animal diyinities is evidence,
in our opinion, that the Old superstition
that nature was possessed by spirit
had given away to the idea that ami
mals were the objects of worship and
were to be regarded as totems or diyin-
tiles. The idea hat localities were
haunted by divinities was, however
still retained, and there is no doubt
that many of the enigies which sur
mounted the hill tops perpetuated
their local traditions and We're remind
ers of these diyinities to the people
which inhabited the region. -Amerieqn

tion of Archbishop of Dublin. 1t is beyond
question the first place in the Church in

a social and political sense than
the archbishopric of Armagh, which bears
with it the title of primate of all Ireland.

for good that his past history iustihes the
public in expecting he will exercise to the
fullest extent.
