of Thought, and the protoplasm of the elementary tissues of 
his temporary physical organization, ganglionic, sensory, or 
motor, is no more the man himself than were these stones, when 
in the quarry, the building in which we are now assembled. 
The history of humanity is an involution of carbon, hydrogen, 
oxygen, and nitrogen, together with something more 
struck into . spirit ! Every organ and function of T. Gorilla 
may be strictly homologous with those of Homo sapiens — 
still Man is not of the brute scientifically. I resist the 
conclusions of modern Anthropologists as utterly undemon- 
strable — that the natural history of the human race, and 
that of Anthropoid Mammalia, is alike in Protoplasm, and 
therefore identical ” in faculty of Nature. Neither Tyndall 
nor Darwin— with Huxley and Maudsley to boot— whether 
molecularists or naturalists, are able even now, in the 
year 1870, to level up the difference between Organic 
and Inorganic, or between genera and genera, species and 
species; scientific differences yet persist ; a natural g’rowth 
from the moss to the monkey, excludes Man, the deathless, 
from its involution, for he is, as I have said, the incarnation of 
Thought, founded in the Divine Idea, and therefore inde- 
pendent of Natural Selection — terrestrially, morphologically, 
or teleologically — yes, Spirituality is the essential gage in true 
Anthropometry, and is not the exclusive offspring of chemical 
force or material substance. Beligiosity is the ultimate fact 
of Human, as contradistinguished from Animal Organism, 
dependent upon no ex-parte physical basis, but as the" bright 
gem in the crown of Human Life it scatters the dark and 
gloomy perplexities that cloud our earthly horizon, by whose 
native splendour, wrapt in a glory all its own, we are enabled 
to read that the writing of Hod, in the Book of Eevelation, 
holds the same language of Truth as the writing, not less His, 
in the Book of Nature, for it shines on “ the path of the just 
as the shining light that shineth more and more unto the 
perfect day.” Physico-Zoic, or Pneumatico-Zoic,— these things, 
in all Bace-Amalgamation, are Cause and Effect; therefore 
we have spiritual phenomena no less certain than those of 
Physics : — 
“ I argue not 
Against Heaven’s hand or will, nor bate a jot 
Of heart or hope, but still bear up, and steer 
Eight onwards.”
