OrlBin OF Species"
AS announced on last Sunday evening,
Bishop Kahn discussed yesterday after
noon the question which now absorba SO
much attention from scientific men,
namely, "The Origin OF Species" The at.
tendance was good. The opinion hasgen
orally prevailed until a few years ago, COM
menCed the Bishop, that each species Of
living beings, in the animal as well
as the vegetable kingdom, was a dis.
tinCt creation. The theory has been dis
Cusaed by Darwin and others, who main.
tain that there has been going on during
countless ages process Of evolution by
which the lower species have been grad.
ually converted into higher and more
perfect spsCies-all primarily originating
from q very few primordlal forms, per-
haps only one. The inHdel school of
naturalists have strenuously advocated
this system OF evolution, because they i'm.
agine that 1t eliminates entirely the idea
Of a Creator, Such was not Darwin's own
opinion, II wa may credit his explicit de.

The Bishop then gave brief synopsis

Bishop went on to show at considerable
length the teachings OF st. Augustine con-
tanned in his "De Genesl ad Llteram"-a
work in which the holy doctor treats er
profeSSo Of the creation. He therein holds
that whilst all things were created at
once, yet they were not created III their

or casual ratios. By the power Of God,

The Bishop took up the fourth number
Of the Humboldt Library" and read a
brief statement OF those arguments which
had received the appreciation OF Mr.. Oar.
win himself. Then followed the counter.
arguments Of the opponents Of the system.
One strong point against the system is the
stubborn fact that no instance can be
given Of the transition OF one species Into
another, and no evidence OF any such
tranSition.htate has been discovered In the
fossil remains Of past ages. Hence there
are few, II any, eminent scientists who are
willing to accept the system as a whole.
The conclusion seems inevitable that
Darwinism Ia at best very elaborate but
as yet groundless hypothesis, and that all
the facts which are enumerated In its
favor can DO otherwise explained quite as
satisfactorily.
The Bishop will conclude this series Of
lectures next Sunday afternoon by an OF.
position Of the true origin OF man and Of
certain points connected with his history,
such as the unity and antiquity Of the
human race.

Farmers from different parts OF Monroe

that the wheat In It's ripening stage was

liked - for his straightforward deal
ing and uniform courtesy. He after
wards removed to Florida and established
a line of stages from Palatka TO Tampa
Bay, making Il success of the project in
the face of the most formidable obstacles.
Col. Hart was one of the first TO engage
in orange growing, and his magnificent
grove tust across the bay is visited by
thousands every season. His fortunes
have kept pace with the progress OF Pa
latka, and he is now one OF the most Opu-
lent of her citizens and the originator and
owner of the 0cklawaha line of steam
boats.
The history of this self-made and worthy
gentleman points an opposite moral for
the youth Of the country.
THE PRESS OF PALATKA
would be an honor to any community.
The Herald is one of the oldest and best
publications in the State. Col. Pratt, the
ceurtly and veteran editor, wields a
trenchant pen, and his voice is ever up
lifted in behalf of truth and Justice.
The Southern Sun also, with Il. J. Ap-
pleyard as proprietor and editor, is brim-
full of instructive articles and current
news. This rising little city also boasts a
live and sprightly daily, the News, with
Benz. Harrison editor, ana 5. n. Ham,
mond business manager. 1t is ably con-
Quoted and deserves the largest measure
of success. To all these journalistic
brethren the writer returns thanks for
general and oft-repeated eourtesies.
The editor of the News is also postmaster
under the appointment OF President Cleve-
land, and his selection all will admit to
be good one.
Real estate here continues to make the
most surprising advances, and the people
seem to have unlimited confidence in the
future of their city. This is the best pos
sible guaranty for success in the premises,
SO much for Palatka. IL. Ii. j.
