The theme of the discourse on Sunday nifflit last was Genesis—the creation, the birth. The next phenomenon afier birth that arrests the attention is life. Lot that be our theme to-night.

Any- When war was declared between France one killing a serpent unintentionally must and Flanders he grew joyful, because he inform the priest of what has occurred, ; thought no more necklaces would be or- rr the waters when there was no or ganic life upon the globe. The Bible in forms us that in the beginning of the sec ond Mosaic day God caused the dry land to “appear” and called it the “earth,” after which He commanded the first, ap pearance of life in the form of vegetation on the land. Geology tenches us that for a time after the first upheaval, the intense universal heal must have precluded life upon the glowing land or within the boiling ocean, and that organic existence was impossible unlil after a cooling period had elapsed. Thus the one confirms the other, and each establishes the fact of an azoic age. Philosophy now speaks to corroborate both the Scriptures and geology in their agreement, as 1 have shown, upon the place in which appeared incipient life. Earth radiates heat more rapidly than water does; therefore, the land must have cooled more quickly than the sea and earlier become adapted to organized life. Physiology also rises to confirm the Bible as to the form in which life was first made manifest by demonstration of the fact that, “the animal kingdom is wholly de pendent upon the vegetable for its sub sistence.” Geology comes forward again in further once of countless globules, or disks, called corpuscles; anil n chemical analysis shows that the greater or less vividness of color is produced !>v the greater or less quantity of oxygen, temporarily present, hi its com position. Two things are essential to color —the corpuscles arid the oxygen. The ox ygen is derived from two sources—from tlie water, by means of gills and branebite, in aquatic animals; from the atmosphere, through the lungs ofland animals and am phibians. Let us, now, examine the blood of a human being. It consists of a liquid plasma, or serum, containing fibrin and certain minerals, in solution, and countless myriads of corpuscles, red and white, in tlie proportion of one white to three or four hundred red disks. These disks are so small that 3500, laid side by side, would not measure more than an inch in length, and so thin that IS,000, laid one upon the other, would be required to measure an inch in height. These corpuscles fill the blood and give it color; but they are not the blood any more than that myriads of fishes, no larger than grains of sand, filling a brook to its surface would lie the water of tlie stream. This is the “blood, which is tho life;” or, in literal language, this is the medium purified by respiration, upon dered. The son he was so fond of was about to marry, and the father, delighted with his choice, said to the young girl: “Ask of me anything, for I am glad to have so sweet a daughter.” With all in nocence she answered: “Oh, father! make for me one of those wonderful necklaces such as only you can make.” The poor man fell bael£ speechless and wondered what he should do.

And, finally, chemistry furnishes the climax of proof, confirmatory of all the rest, by showing that graphite is carbon, the product of vegetation alone, and by formulating the reaction to which is due the existence of iron ore. To illiistrat- warm-blooded or cold-blooded, according to their circulation, double or single, mid the character of the circulation varies in different animals, according to their scale of being. In birds and mammals,including man, the circulation is double and the blood is warm; in ail lower orders the circulation is single and the blood is cold. Now, let us examine double circulation, as Illustrated in the human subject. The dark blood, drained from the veins, and hence called venous blood and charged the latter proposition: Iron, in the form of j with chyle, into which the food lias been tlie insoluble ferric oxide, is indigenous j converted, pours through the superior to the rocks and its presence, in small j vena cava into the right auricle of the quantities, is practically universal in terr -s- j heart, whence it is emptied into the right trial matter.

Then, upon exposure to the atmosphere, it takes up oxygen again, and with it water, which also contains oxygen, a id thus is converted into the insoluble ferric hydrate —bog iron, or iron ore, in a permanent form. The pyrites and other forms of iron aro mostly due to igneous i'.ifluei Thus we cannot Hcienoe corroborates i lie Scripture account of incipient life, in time, place and form. “The earth,” which had been separated from the waters, “brought forth grass and herb, yielding seed after its kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself and tlie evening and tlie morning were the third day.” Organic life began in tlie third epoch, according to the Bible and according to geology : First, chaos: second, azoic time; third, the eozoic period, or the dawn of life. (I may remark here, incidentally, that the Scriptures in iliis connection furnish conclusive evidence to rebut the assump tion that all tilings were created within a period of six litoral days. For it was not until the fourth day when the Bible de scribes tlie uppearrunec of the “lights in the heavenly nrimment;” and since the so- called circuit of tlie sun is tile measure of a literal day, the first three days men tioned ouuki not have been literal, because the sun had not appeared, lo mark their limits. Does not tir.s faot settle the ques tion?) in Hi. first period light had appeared struggling through the steamy clouds and piercing the thinner stratus, that nowhere showed a perfect break, and that light was sufficient to permit life in the lower orders of vegetation ; but the sun, the source of that light, could not show his face until in the fourth epoch, or creative day—the cooling process had resulted in the reduc tion of the vaporous mass ami its disper sion into Individual clouds, l'nen the rays of the sun streamed down wit : vivifying power upon laud and sea, and animal life was possible. So in the fifth creative day, beginning in cezoic time, animal life began “in tlie waters," as both the Bible and geology affirm. The earliest fossil remains are revealed by the microscope in the serpentine mar bles of the Lanventian formation. These are the shells of mollusks, called rhizopods or “root footed” from the stems, by which it is supposed that they attached them selves to the marine rocks. If any animals existed before them they must have been protoplasms and shelless, boneless mol- lttsks, whose remains have been com pletely dissolved. Thenceforth, allo wing for the true mean ing of mistranslated words, tho parallel between the life progression oi the Bible nml of geology is substantially perfect. From the diatoms and aquatic ami semi- aquatic plants and rhizopods of eozoic time, to the bivalves null univalves, the radiates, crustaceans and fishes with the carboniferous plants of the paleozoic or old life age; the snurians and other rep tiles, tin. insects and birds of the inesozoie or middle life period; mid down to the mammal of the eenozoic or recent life epoch culminating in man. In the study oflife, there is one striking characteristic that arrests our attention at the beginning. It is circulation. Although the modern discovery of t his fact was made by Harvey only 2(17 years ago, the student of to-day cannot fail to notice it at the very commencement of his investigations. In deed, the principle of circulation appears to be universal. There are, doubtless, mag netic currents in the earth. There are certainly currents in the sea, preventing the stagnation of the oceans; there are currents in the at mosphere, purifying the air,adjusting tem perature anil distributing rains; there is a circulation in living plants, and it is easy iopti.-.-o that the same phenomenon be longs to animals of every kind. The circu lating fluid, in a tree, is called the sap; in an animal, it is called the blood. The ex udation of sup from a severed bough in spring, shows that the sap is rising—the circulation is upward; the absence of moist ure at the cleft, In autumn, proves that the drainage is away from the break—the sap is falling, the circulation is complete. The exudation from. the stump of the insect’s sundered limb proves the circulation of the vital fluid, the internal pressure which produces the exudation is constant, t he circulation is perpetual. This vital fluid is the blood, colorless, it is true, and slow of movement, but it is, nevertheless, the in- pulmonary artery into the lungs, where it receives oxygen from the air which is inhal ed into the thousands of cells'permeated in every direction by the minute branches into which the pulmonary artery is divided. Being thus thoroughly aerated and changed to a bright crimson or scarlet color by thejoxygen absorbed, the blood is returned through the pulmonary veins to fail to perceive that j the left auricle of the heart. Thence it is driven into the left ventricle, whence it is thrown by a powerful force-pump action through l he great aorta into all tho other arteries to be carried throughout the sys tem and finally returned to the heart’by the veins. In double circulation the movement of the blood is more rapid, respiration is more frequent and purer air is essential. In animals, whose circulation is single, the heart has only one side completely de veloped and the full process, which I have | just described, does not take place. | In single circulation the movement of the blood is less rapid, tlie respiration ! loss frequent and less oxygen is needed, since the animal is by the natural ar rangement of it.s physical organs less af fected by tile carbonic acid in Hie blood. Such animals, though exceedingly tena cious of life, n ■ illustrated in the reptiles, are snid to lie of low vitality. The; can live in an atmosphere that would suffocate man, and hence they appeared in creation before the advent of the mammals. So mueli for the blood, tlie visible - ”e- dium of life and that which is life, to the eye. But where is the real life? Physi ology corroborates tho Bible In the phases and functions oflife which it porti'iivs, as, for example, in the wise man's poetic, pic ture of senility and death. But in what tangible shape is life itself to be found? Physicians and anatomists have learned a great deal, and scientific investigators have discovered much, but who has grasped and handled life? That locomo'ive yonder does not draw the train that follows it. it is a subtle influence manifested in tlie expan sive power of steam that moves the pistons, turns tlie driving wheels, impels the eti gine and draws the train. Go to the mavblewovks in your city and study that beautiful little gas engine. So di minutive that you could almost set it upon this small table at my side. Does it drive the machinery? No. An invisible in fluence manifested in successive explosions of common illuminating gas drives the pis ton, turns the band wheel and moves all the machinery. What moves that horseless*ear devoid of steam along yon city street? Where isthe traction? is it in that rod that reaches to the wire overhead? Or is it the lifeless metal of the wire itself? No. It is an occult influence apparently generated bv the great dynamo a mile or more away, but really not to be fixed and handled even there. Vet we say tlie locomotive draws tlie train, the gas engine whirls the shaft, the electric motor impels the car. And so we say, “the idood is the life.” It is a medium set in motion by an influence, subtle and unseen. Influence implies a promoter; motion involves force; euect necessitates cause. Show me force constant and uniform and I will show you perpetual motion. And, verily, it is seen in the sidereal system around us to night. Show me a uniform, persistent cause and I will show you a definite, un varying effect. And, verily, it is seen in nature about us to-night and all the time. The medium is but the vehicle of the in fluence. Show me an invariable, intelli gent result due to an influence ever mani festly the same; and I shall experience no difficulty in convincing you or the exist ence of an intelligent promoter, unifier one’s self—homes which can never be fully restored to the family, for home is some thing more than the roof which shelters us. The associations of childhood—tiro friends of early days, the memories of the past, the ancestral graves upon the hill side-arc these nothing? It will take more years than the most of us can afford to give to build a new home and get into it the feeling with which we regard otir present one, be it ever so humble.
