Prof. Tyndall.
The Koyal Institution of Great liritnin
was founded by uu American, and after
three-quarters of a century, as if in ac
knowledgement of onr claims, it sends
to us for a season its most eminent Pro
fessor. Among the great schools of
science in Europe none has had a more
brilliant career or excited a mote power
ful influence in extending our knowledge
of natuto than the Koyal Insti’iitiou As
sociated with its histoiy are the names ol
Runiford, Young, I■ \x, Faraday, and
Tyndall, while the di-.-overics that have
emanated from it i. ai tniicliocl die sei
euco of the world The line, of exploration
which has been there pursued has mainly
ielated to the physical forces. It is, in
deed, closely identified with the develop
ment of modern views on this subject.
Itumford, its founder, lias the honor of
initiating the new philosophy of energy
by e xploding the old notion of the exist
cnee of a calorific fluid, and by first pro
pounding the doctrine that heat is but a
mode of motion. Galvanism was only
nine ia is old when the Koyal Institution
win organized : and water was lirst de
composed by electricity Ilia same year
that it went into operation. Sir Hum
phrey Davy followed the opening by the
construction of more powerful batteries,
with which lie decomposed the alkalis
and isolated their metals, and thus raised
clcc'ro chemistry to the rank of anew
branch of science. Dr. Thomas Young
ti •up the subject of light, and placed its
mod-n-n theory upon a better foundation.
Faraday worked mainly in the field of
electricity and magnetism, creating the
science of magneto-electricity, and mak
ing many discoveries and valuable obser
vations on the infractions and dependen
cies of the physical forces. Prof. Tyndall
early advanced our knowledge of mag
netic action,and lias pursued his researches
into the field of radiant beat and of light,
and has reached tire most striking and
important conclusions.
Deeply imbued with the spirit of the
institution which lie represents, and seek
ing above all things the extension ot
knowledge for its own sake, his controll
ing purpose in visiting this country is to
do what he may to arouse an interest in
the cultivation of pure science. Although
lire theory of education proclaimed in our
colleges is that knowledge is to be sought
on its own account, yet there is no place in
the world where knowledge is actually su
bordinated to immediate practical and
sordid ends to such an extent as here.

MODERN SKEPTICISM.
From the Atlanta Herald.]
It is no longer denied by men of educa
tion and thoughtful minds, that while the
world has progressed immensely in tire
arts and sciences, and while civilization
lias reached a point probably never betore
known since the creation, the religious
sentiment in humanity has declined fear
fully. Skepticism—not to say absolute
infidelity—is to be found every where now,
while a century ago it was to be found in
a few great minds alone and not elsewhere.
Even the pulpit itself contains doubters,
and we find, in many places, religion a
fashion instead of a faith.
While we disclaim any purpose to mor
alize over tlie lamentable decadence in re
ligiotts belief manifested in every part of
the civilized wotld, (lie (bought forces it
self upon every mind whether mankind
has been really benctitted by a progressive
civilization. People, it is true, go to
church with tolerable regularity, but do
they pray with as much sincerity and
faith as they did a century ago? Do they
believe in all the Bible teaches with the
implicit, unquestioning reliance in the
truths of Scripture of their ancestors ? If
we reply that they do not, there will not
lie wanting persons to denounce us as slan
dering society. But does not every action
of society tell us of the skepticism that
exlds. When men and women, aye, min
isters and members of churches, too, se
riously argue to prove the truth of the Bi
ble and the divinity of Christ, and even
the existence'of God himself, how can any
one claim for the world of to-day, that
faith which would have scut even the
supposed doubter to the stake one him
tired years ago.
Many writers have insisted that the
French revolution is responsible for mod
ern skepticism. This is not altogether
true. Voltaire, llousscau and the ojlicr
atheists who laid the foundation of French
infidelity, and whose teachings resulted in
the revolution,unquestionably did much to
undermine religion. We hold, however,
that the emancipation of the mind, and
the activity springing from a more search
ing and comprehensive system of educa
tion, is the principal cause. The tremen
dous discoveries in physiology, the impor
tant facts ascertained in geology—in short,
the gigantic development of matter, Ims
shaken faith in the spiritual. Sa many
things decided impossible or supernatural
have been performed or explained, that
man has learned to question everything not
material, and to demand evidence before
believing.
It is impossible for any intellectual man
to iiarbor for an instant a thought of re
gret for the progress of civilization. Who,
having once tasted of the sweets of sucli a
giand nod comprehensive knowledge of
man and of the world lie lives in, could
-igh for k relapse into ignorance? If
lliere is ay regret at all it is that while
ivory nhferial element was advancing,
Hie profeiters of religion were standing
still \\ iifec men were daily making dis
eoverics witch seemed to stamp as pure
lablcs ail we lind in the Bible, they were
merely asking men to believe and showing
hut little to justify such belief. To day
Tyndall speaks sneeringly of the
Bible as “Hebrew literature,” church
members hold up their hands in horror
?, t! > be shocked, but do they meet
■ is startling array of facts with convincing
argument? Do they reconcile sp : rit to
matter ? W e fear not.
It is not for us to plunge into the depths
or this prevailing skepticism. We ouly
know that the desire to believe in the
sublime teachings of the Bible, inherent
in every breast, is not satisfied. The fault
lies in our preachers. Men and women
question and are skeptical because their
pastor cannot explain. We may outward
ly practice all that Christianity commands. •
Society, for its own preservation, compels
us to observe the commandments. But
until the heart is touched by the hand of
reason, people will question and doubt
and fear, and Christianity will become
more a fashion and less a religion every
day.
THE MODERN 1.1 YSI LILIES.
'fhe Kcv. l)r. Harrison,ol'Atlanta, hav
ing been prevented from delivering Ids
proposed lectures oh tbe “ Menial Pho
nomcimof so-called Spiritualism,” address
es tbe following, to the Constitution, which
will interest our readers :
Both classes or phenomena, the physical
and the mental, which in modern times
have been attributed to the influence of
disembodied spirits, have been known in
various parts of the world, from the earliest
periods ot hentie history. They have
played a distinguished part in the tlieogo
nies and mythologies of lionie, Greece, In
dia and Egypt. In tDo early centuries of
the Christian era they were generally ho
lieved to be the work of demons, and in
jury lias been perpetrated to iciety by
that belief.
There ore several methods ot dealing
with these phenomena : First, to deny
them all, audio answer all testimony with
the keen sallies of ridiettle. This method
will be satisfactory to some minds The
second plan is to admit the testimony, re
ceive the statement of facts and pronounce
the whole business the work of satan.
This plan lias its admirers. The third
method is to accept the theory of direct ab
extrn spirit-influence. This doctrine has
a niuiiimde of advocates. The last meth
od is to receive statements of fuels cau
iously ; to verify them if possable ; to take
well attested facts end apply to them the
known law s of nature, and if there be no
known law which identifies itself as a
cause adequate to the effect produced, to
suspend the judgment until the advance
ment of human science will supply the
desired law.
The first method admits of no argu
ment. There is an end to human testimo
ny when we stoutly determine to disbe
lieve the statements of credible witnesses.
I, for example, have never seen a table and
ils contents, weighing over three hundred
pounds, move across tbe floor without a
visible cause. But one of the first men of
France, of Europe, and of the age, affirms
that he has seen this wonderful performance.
What am Ito do? Shall 1 assert that the
story is false when M. Arago states it to be
true? Shall I place my limited experi
ence against the testimony of a man whose
contributions to science have not been ex
celled in number and importance by any
philosophers of the liith century.
On the Kith of February, 18-lii. M. Ara
go presented a paper to the Paris Academy
of Science. In that paper among Ihe
starugc phenomena produced by Angelique
Cotton, the following occurs :
“ As had been observed the first day, if
she attempted to sit, the seat was thrown
far from her, witli such lorce that any oth
er person occupying it was carried away
with it. Oue day a chest, upon which
three men were scaled, was moved
in the same manner. Another day, al
though the chair was held by two very
strong men, it was broken between their
bands. She can toucli no object without
breaking it, or throw it upon the ground.
All the articles of furniture which her gar
ments toucli are displaced or overthrown.”
These are words not of an ignorant
dupe, hut of the perpetual Secretary of Hie
French Academy of Sciences. Can we
refuse to accept his statement of facts?
In the year 1831, in 1 lie town of Wood
bridge, New Jersey, strange noises were
heard in the house of a Mr. Joseph Barron.
Windows were broken, thundering sounds,
as of a heavy mallet striking against the
walls of the house, producing noises heard
a hundred yards from the house; doors
llew open violently, and many of the phe
nomena attending Angelique Cottin were
observed. The cause was the same. A
servant girl was the nervous “mec’ium” in
the case.
In the year 1850, at Stratford, Connecti
cut; the house of Bov. Dr. Phelps became
the scene of similar occurrences. “ The
phenomena consisted,” says Dr. Phelps,
“in the moving of articles of furnilure’in
a manner that could not be accounted for.
Knives, forks, spoons, nails, blocks of
wood, etc., were thrown in different direc
tions about the house. They were seen
to move from places and directions which
made it certain that no visible power ex
isted by which the motion could he pro
duced. For days and weeks together I
watched these strange movements, with
all the care and caution and close atten
tion which I could bestow I witnessed
them hundreds of times, and I know that
in hundreds of instances they took place
when there was no visible power by which
the motion could have been produced.
Scores of persons of the first standing in
the community, whose education, general
intelligence, candor, veracity and sound
judgment none will question, were re
quested to witness the phenomena, and, if
possible, help us to a solution of the mys
tery.” A writer in tire New Haven
Journal was an eye-witness to the follow
ing : “While we were there,” lie says,
“the contents of the pantry were emptied
into Hie kitchen, and bags of salt, tin
ware aud heavier culinary articles were
thrown in a promiscuous heap upon the
floor with a loud and startling noise.
Loaves of delicious cake were scattered
about the bouse. The large knocker of
the outside door would thunder its fearful
tones through the loud-resounding lmll,
unmindful of-the vain but rigid scrutiny
to which it was subjected by incredulous
and curious men. Chairs would deliber
ately move across the room, unimpeded
by any visible agency. Heavy marble
top tables would poise themselves upon
two legs and then fall with their contents
to the floor, no human being within six
feet of them.”
Now, here is matter for thought or
merriment, as to one's humor. We have
seen none of these things ; therefore we
may reject them as fables. But the recent
occurrences at Surrency. in Genagia. and,
later still, in Charleston, S. C., admon
ished thoughtful men. The frequency of
these phenomena is a pregnant fact to the
student of history. Unexplained, unin
vestigated, they supply ailment to the
cravings of superstition. Unchecked,
they contribute to the production of the
greatest scourge that cun afliict our race,
a nervous epidemic. To attribute these
strange occurrences to the agency of
demont is to tan the liamo of nervous
apprehension, and to prepare the way for
a revival of the frenzy which raged in the
MACON, GA., SATURDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1872.
mcmorablo days of witchcraft. To receive
the pretensions of “spiritism” is to ignore
the claims of reason. We are shut up
then, to a single course—investigation
and explanation of the phenomena. To
ascertain, if we cun, Hie natural laws that
produce 1 lie phenomena—to classify the
facts, and determine the conditions pre
cedent and accompany the demonstrated
occurrences—these I regard to he para
mount duties.
Having been myself, to some extout, a
subject of abnormal experience in regard
to this nervous force, I feel it to be my
duty to contribute whatever I may to the
general treasury of knowedge upon tiiese
subjects. I verily believe that out of the
dinjtcta membra now scattered over tlie
world will ono day be constructed a beau
tiful organism, that will give its potent
influence for the ennoblement of our race.
Perhaps in a few days I may be per
mitted to use iu illustration one of the
most wonderful cases of cataleptic clair
voyance that lias ever challenged the
faith of mankind? •
A Curious Prophylactic Against Small-
Pox.
At a recent meeting of the Alabama
State Medical Society, Dr. G. D. Norris,
of Huntsville, stated that during a visita
tion of the small pox at Huntsville,' a
number of families used a tea made of the
eiinic-ifutjii racemona, and that in no
instance did any of these persons take the
small pox. Dr. Norris was unable to
learn at whose instance this device was
adopted. He stated further, that during
the time these families used the tea, lie
attempted to vaccinate a number the
members of the families, and iu every
instance he failed, but that after the tea
was discontinued, be succeeded with vac
cination in tlie eases where he had tailed
while they were under the influence of
the tea.
This cimicifuga racemosa is known as
the snake-root or coliosh. It should be
used in moderation, because large doses
produce impaired vision, vertigo, nausea
and vomiting, its medicinal properties
are highly esteemed by many eminent
membets of the medical profession. In
the transactions of the American Medical
Association, vol. 1, 352, Dr. F. N. John
son reported extraordinary success with
it iu acute rheumatism. Iu chorea a dis
ease often allied with rheumatism, the
medicine has been very successfully used.
One ounce of the root mqy bo boiled
for a short time in one pint of water, and
from half a pint to a pint may be used in
twenty-four hours. The fluid extract is
probably superior to any other pi epara
tiou. This should lie made by some able
pharmaceutist. The dose of the fluid
extract is about a teaspoonful three or four
times a day.
The facts slated by Dr. Norris go
to confirm the truth of Jenner’s dis
covery that vaccination is small pox. An
other curious fact is worth remembering
in this connection. The crimicifuga race
mosa is called the black snake-root, and is
supposed to have received that name from
its assumed efficacy in curing the bite of
the rattlesnake. Here is another curious
coincidence : Professor Henry, of .Man
chester, England, discovered that a heat
equal to 183 degrees of Fahreulieitts scale
entirely destroys the poison of small pox,
of the rattle-snake, and of the cobra di
capello. This important truth should be
a prophylactic against the senseless des
truction of bed-clothing of victims of
small pox. Boiling water is 212 degrees
of Fahrenheit’s scale, and will utterly des
troy small pox poison.
Personal Journalism.
Tlie Boston Post, in speaking of the
mighty personal power of Horace Gree
ley as an editor, most truly and ably says:
The time lias gone by for the personal
influence which was once wielded by a
single journalist. Tlie able editor of the
present and the future is and will he
merged in his paper. In this respect we
are approaching the English press, as they
will learn from us in the proper functions
of a daily journal in the collection of
news. Everybody remembers bow Colt
den taught the editor of the London Times
n letter of personal responsibility when
lie nailed a falsehood on its editor, whom
he forced to reply over his own name.
This was serving John T. Delane right,
under the circumstances; but the shirk!
of anonymous journalism, though never a
defense against misrepresentation and as
persion, is useful in general discussion by
freeing tfio press from tlie trammels of
mere individuality, and giving the many
minds the force and directness of one.
American journalism has a grand future.
It, doubtless, needs a greater infusion of
the gentlemanly and tlie scholurly ele
ments, which will elevate its tone without
weakening its strength. There must oh,
viously be a demand for the highest jour
nalistic talent in tlie paper which deals
with political and sociul questions requir
ing wide range of information, as well as
accuracy and discrimination in observa
tion aud judment. To discuss the topics
of the time, which are presented in the
department of news, with a reference to
the needs of the country and the age, with
fairness and independence, should be the
chief aim of American journalism.
