§ I. Objects. 
1. Tue Victoria Institute, or PHILosopHicaL Society oF GREAT 
Britain, is established for the purpose of promoting the fol- 
lowing objects, viz. :— 
First. To investigate fully and impartially the most important 
questions of Philosophy and Science, but more especially those 
that bear upon the great truths revealed in Holy Scripture ; 
with the view of reconciling any apparent discrepancies 
between Christianity and Science. 
Second. To associate together men of Science and authors who 
have already been engaged in such investigations, and all 
others who may be interested in them, in order to strengthen 
their efforts by association; and, by brmging together the 
results of such labours, after full discussion, in the printed 
transactions of an Institution: to give greater force and 
influence to proofs and arguments which might be little 
known, or even disregarded, if put forward merely by 
individuals.
