DARWINIANISM.
In the course of his presidential address to the British Assugiation at Oxford, Lord Salisbury soid:-
DARWIN'S WORK AND TELORY.
If we are not able to see far into the causes anů origin of life in our own day, it is not probable that we shall cost more aucoessfully with the problem as it arose many millions of years ago. Yeb cortainly the most cerapisùour event in the annals of the last half-century has boon the pub ligation of Mr Darwin's work on the Origin
in 1869.
In
| Archibald Geikis, that the controversy is still alive. The mathematicians sturdily adhere to their figures, and the biologists are quite sure the mathematicians must have made a mistake, I will not get myself into the line of fire by fotorvening in such controversy. But until it is ad- fusted the laity may be excused for ratura- ing a verdict of not proven' upon the wider on the Darwinan school has raised.

But at this distance of time it is possible to see that some of its sucones kaa boon dus to adventitious ofrzumstances, It has had the chance of enlisting among its champions some of the most powerful intellecta of cur time, and perhaps the stili happier fortune of appoaring at a moment when it fernished an armoury of wospoda to mon who were not soiontific, for use in the bitter but transitory polemics of the day. But by far the largest part of its ac- cidental advantages was to bo found in the remarkable character and qualifications of its aalbor. The equity of
the judgment, simpleminded love of truth, and the patient duvation to the pursuit of it through yours of toil and of other conditions the most uapropitious, these things endeared tv numbers of men everything that came from Charles Darwin apart from ita scientific zurit or literary dharms. And whatever final value may be assigned to his doctrine, nothing can ever detract from the lustra shed upon it by the wealth of his knowledge and the intimite ingenuity of his resource. The intrinsic power of his
his theory is shown at least in this one respect, that in the department of knowledge with which it is concerned it han effected an entire revolution is the methods of research.
