Excerpt from Lectures on the Unknown God of Herbert Spencer, and the Promise and Potency of Prof. Tyndall

The first lecture seems to the author an indisputable ex bibit of the weakness and confusion of thought which are found in the first chapters of the First Principles of Herbert Spencer. The validity of some arguments used in the sec ond lecture, will be questioned by manv candid thinkers still further in time to come, as it has been in the past. We have the firmest confidence, however, in the ultimate issue. Biology, as studied by the scientist, will be found to con tribute toward an enlarged conception of the nature of that revelation of himself which is made in all forms of life, by the One known to Theology these ages past as the Living God.
