through conditions generally resembling tsh, q

attalls II. specific maturity. Al one OF The last


stages oil his fetal career. he exhibits an inter
feet ape; this Is suppressed, ard he may then Dc


said to take leave of h- slmlal type, and become
true human creature. Even. we shall see, the


varieties OF his represented IN the prosres-


sive development Of individual OF the highest,


before the adult Caucasian, the highest point
yet attained In the animal scale.


To come 10 particular points OF the organization
The brain Of man. which exceeds that OF All Other


animals IL conplexlty Of organization and iuiness

which had been the first TO appear, ls the only rep

state IL perfectly resembles the brain OF an adnli


FISH, thus assuming III lasifu tie iclin that IN tne
fish is permanent In shor; tune, however, the
structure Is become more complex. the paris more
distinct, the spinal marrow better marked; Il is


now the brain cf reptile. The change continues
by singular motion, certain parts (eo7p2rd qada-
ya.e,nila) which had hitherto appeared on the


upper surface, now pass towards The lower; the


former Is their permanent situation II fishes and
reptiles, The later in BIRDS and mamrnaIa. Ihls Is
another advance III the scale, but more remains


vet TO be done. The complication OF the organ
increases cavities termed Ue,ltIcles are tormed,

curously organized parts. such as the corpor:
strata, added; II Is nov the BRAN OF the
mamrnalia It's last and final change alone seems
wanting, that which shall render 1t the brain o
Ma And this change IN time takes place.


Thus man appears TO resume IN himself the whole
animal kingdom He is the grand Type of Types,
though perhaps not the final one. The startling
qneslion arises, the present OF man the high
est form which the principle Of Development will
take7 From defects in the geological group to
which he is referred, the analosical inference
raises doubt,


q" 1t may be asked,-Is the existing human race
the only species designed 10 occupy the grade 10
which il Is here referred! Such question evil
IDENTITY ought not TO be answered rashy; and shall
therefore conine myse.. TO headnsslon that Jadg-
ing by analogy. We might expect 10 see several
varieties OF the being, homo. There Is no other
family approaching this in Importance, which
presents but one species. The corvdae, our parallel
ia aves consist OF several distinct genera and sub
genera. Ii Is startling to find such an appearance
of lmperiecton IN the circle 20 which raG be-
longs and the ideas which arise IN consequence are
not less startling Is our but the initial Of the
grand crowning type! AJe there yet 10 be species
superior to Us IN organization, purer IN tcrllns,
more powerful in device and act, and who shall
take rule over us! There is in this nothing I'M
probable on other grounds. The PRESENT race, rude



the present state of things i'll the world but the
external world goes through slow and gradual
changes, which may leave II In Time much Sc
rener field OF existence. There may then be occa.
SION for nober type OF humanity, which shat
complete the geological circle on this planet, and
realize some OF the dreams OF the purest spirits OF
the present race


For the speculatioAs Of the author on the mental
constitution of man, which occupy the concluding
l.. oc, ,l,o no. baro hut I,;la
thsy DO not rest on any scientific foundation. In
conclusion


"The sum Of all we have seen Of the psychical
constitution of man Is, that lis Almighty Author
has destined it, like everything else, to be deve
loped from inherent qualities and TO have mode
of action depending solely on lis own organization
Thus the whole is complete on one principle The
masses OF space are formed by law law makes
them in due time theatres OF existence ior plants
and animals; sensation, disposition, intellect, are
all in like manner developed and sustained in ac-
ton by law. Il is most Interesting 10 observe into
how small field the whole of the mysteries OF
nature thus ultimately revoive themselves. The
inorganic has ore final comprehensive lar, GRAvi
TATloN The organic the other great department
of mundane things, rests IN bike manner on one
law, and that is,-pEvELoPMENT Nor may even
these be after all twain, but only branches OF ono
sill more comprehensive law, the expression OF
that unity whicn mans VIII can scarcely separate
from Deity itself


We dissent entirely from the position tha; "the
f,lal comprehensirc Law OF the inorganic, is Grav.
tation, and of the organic, Development" To
our minds there is logical dissonance in the state
ment; for there is not a parity of conditions which
admit of comparison and contrast The law of
Cravita;ion is one Of permanent gorernment, but
that OF Develormen, is one Of progressive moro
mcnt. Both laws may be r,nirasa'. Grayitatlon
is merely the resultant of the action OF the laws OF
Attraction and Repulsion; and ii there is Unity OF
System in the Universe, these laws must govern
the organic as well as what is called the inorganic,
the moral Is well as the material world. What as
srayita,ion in one sphere holds planets n their
bits governing their motions with the mos, perfect
order and harmony may in the other as moJGioqei-
poise serve to direct all beings 10 life perfectly
adapted 10 their nature, that is, in conformity with
their attractions and repulsons. Thus we see
the law of gravitatioa may be universal IN one
sense, and govern equally the organic and the inor-
ganic. 1t is not in this sense final law of the IN
organic only. as the author s;ates-that is, it
not be said 10 be limited, when viewed as
suit of the laws of Attraction and Repusion,
although il may take different character under
different circumstances


Again, the law of Development may be univer-
sal, and be the law which presdes over the crea-
ton o; all things, planets well organic beings
on the surface of planets The hypothesis OF the
aulher ia, that Grayitsticn is ihe law under which
planets are formed, and that the law OF Develop
mentcommences only with organic life onplaneis;
but ii we admi, this Law to be universal also, then
We NAV conclude that il has something to DO with
the creation of worlds, and that they may b. not
merely Inorganic objects, but beings instinct with
LIE. Upon these views may be raised a consistent
theory throughout. ------
