•‘Unify of Rntoral Phenomena.’’
Ever since the time of Lord Bacon, and ee-
pecially during the laat half century, laborers
in tho field of material solenoe have wrought
with unceasing diligence and amazing anooesa.
Had any one lifty years ago even hinted the
pomlbility of many things now bronght within
tho range of school boy knowledge and every
day art, he would hava been called a lnnatlo.
It is quite natural that a progress in knowledge
ao rapid and almost uninterrupted ahonld pro
duce K kind of mental intoxication, excite to
great boldnoea of speculation, and stimtilate to
energetic and perfevering effort to bring even
the mo.t HtartliDg tbooriefi within the sphere of
of demonstrated troth. This ii actually the
case; and one who keeps himself at all in
formed of w hat is passing in the ecientiflo world
in fairly bewildered, not only by the variety and
andaoity of the theories daily broached, bnt
also by the rapidity wiih whioh many of them
pass from the position of apparently fantaatio
dreams to that of authenticated and acknowl
edged fact.
Those acquainted with the anbjeet tall ns that
• discovery which took plaoe about thirty yean
ago introduced a new era into solenoe of this
sort, by giving a new torn to its investigations,
and producing direot reanlts, whioh, while im
portant and even splendid in themselves, are
far more ao, as indicating that they are only
tho forerunners and small beginnings of whal
may be reasonably expected.
This discovery is tbat of tbo “Mechanical
Equivalent of Heat," and amonnts, in general
statement to this, that heat and mechanical
force are, practically, convertible termB; a cer
tain amount of the one having its exaot and
Ascertained equivalent in a certain amonnt of
the other. Besides its direot effects on me
chanical HCiencc and art, it is exertiDg an im
mense inti lenoa on the whole range of physios,
reviving witn new interest the inquiry into the
origins! and fundamental unity of the appar-
eiiiiy different though related foroes known to
bo in.operation in natnre, and as well provid
ing now moans as Indicsting new methods for
attempting Its solution. To illustrate: Tha
phenomena of boat, light, sound, electricity,
the chemical forces, ami those of gravity and
cohesion were known to he involved and some
how related in any ono of many operations of
natnre and art; bnt there waa no adequate cine
to tho natnre of this relation. The combustion
of fnel In the fnrnsce was known to be a chemi
cal process, giving forth heat and light, and af
fecting tbs gravity and oobasion both of the
fnel and the water in the boiler. Tho expan
sive foroe of the latter, aa it passed nnder the
inflnenoe of heat, from the form of a liquid to
that of vapor and gas, was known and used to
prodneo sonnd, electrio effects, and mechanical
force. What was wanted was a knowledge of
the natnre of these foroes and of tho relation
between them, or some adequate basis on whioh
t.) found definite icqmry on these points;
and the above discovery is supposed to afford
this. Mechanical force is only a mode of mo
tion. Tho tendency of ooe body to move,
cither in its mass or the arrangement of its
particles, is nsed to produoe motion in another.
Tbns, water, moving In its mass by the foroe of
gravity, tarns tho water wheel; moving in its
partic’i", when rednoed to vapor and gsa by
hint, drives ibe aieam engine. Bat can any-
ilnt'g bnt motion produoe motion? and ainoe
In al always and everywhere produces it in one
form ur another, is beat anything bnt a mode
of motion7 as sonnd has lint been known to
be, and light is increasingly proved to be. Are
electrio and chemical foroes and those of cohe
sion and gravity, with all cf whioh host is ao
ootkstaiitly and mextrioshly involved, other than
modi» of motion? Are not, in short, foroe and
motion equivalent ttrm4, let tbo force be of
what natnre It may, or wherever fennd in the
material universe ?
■ Questions of this sort now agitate the saien-
tiflo world, and have bronght out, amongst
many others, the little work, the title of whioh
stands at the bead of this artiole. Its author
Is U. Emile Ssigey, a Frenohman, who writes
with the vivaaity, clearness, and fotoe usually
fonnd in the works of his ooontrymen on
soientiflo subjects. His translator, Professor
T. F. Moses, of Yerbsnna University, has pre
served these qnalilies of style, and added (o the
work an interesting introduction, with B few
explanatory and other notes. The book Is eml-
nenlly readable to those interested in such snb-
jeots from these facts; bnt more especially, on
acooeni of the brief bnt comprehensive view it
gives of the history and present stale of physi
cal science in some of its more important
branches; by which it shows Its author to be
thoroughly informed in tnat of whioh he treat*.
But It affords a striking example of that ao-
dacity of speculation already referred to; its
object being to revlvo in a new form a theory
of the material universe held and diaenssed for
a time In the ages before pbjraioal seienoe prop
erty so-called bad any real being, bnt suppoeed
to be forever exploded when snch solenoe ca&e
into cxistenoe. “Tho Atom and Motion; be
hold tbe universe," it the author’s rhetorical
presentation of it. Flaming himself on tbe
tendency of science to find in all foroes only
modes of motion, he inquires, Why sot of bat
one original motion? and upon the tendency
to redace all known bodies to a few simple ele
ments. he ask. Why not to oue original element,
to which this motion belongs ?
Ia his theory the ''atom” is the indivisible
particle of a material bnt imponderable “ether,”
which he sapposes may fid all spaoa, and be
the one original element oat of whioh all bodies
may be formed, whether of worlds or things in
them, animate or inanimate; and the “motion"
Is a'*iotitO!j" and• Translatory”movemem with
which he thinks these atoms may be endowed,
and ont of which all foroe, of whatever nature,
may arise.
This speculation ho presents, not as one to
be aocepted as true in the preeent state of
science, bnt only to be kept in view and nsedaa
a guide to inquiry ; to be proved, disproved, or
oonsigaeu to the category of things nnknowa-
able ss results may determine. About the fate
of it he seems not be concerned, bnt anxious
only that it should set to stimulate re
search in all branches of physical stieooe.
And in fact, even were the theory true,
it seems very probable tbat it would
never He within man's power to know It or to
prove it; since tbe limit whioh he invariably
reaches in all directions la not t£at of things to
be known, bnt of his power to investigate.
Whether it will be useful in exciting and guid
ing inquiry is another qoestton. Bnt M. Saigey
traces op tbe evidence be snpposes to be la
favor of. it, through tbe phenomena of all the
natural foroes sbove mentioned, sad those of
animate life, including the physioal constitu
tion of msu. At the same time be points out
the wide gaps yet to be filled In this svidsnes,
and some apparently conflicting foots, and
freely ooooedes that advaootng knowledge may
sootier his theory to the winds; insisting
always that he brings it forward as a men
hypothesis to be inquired into, a guess at what
may possibly be fonnd to be, rather then so
opinion as to what actually is.
In that part of tbs work which treats of lb#
phenomena of man's bodily Ilfs, he briefly ad
verts to that specie* of objection to physical
investigation and theory at this paint, whioh
ansae from tha fear last advantage be thus af
forded to the "'• l -T 4 T’ l rt in his denial of tbs
Basil. Behind this Has another fear, wl
Bsfeeydsaa not eipreaaiyBMBiioti, Mat advas-
tags ha taken of tbo aease ground, (ad Mead
of the whole range ol known phyaoal law), to
deny tbs existanoa of a living paraooaluod.
Hare ha takas what Barms to be tha tons
groond, tot wit: that tha physical philosopher,
at tue\ has to do only with physical facts, to
observe and reeord what falls nnder hia notioe
in tha world of matter. What this baa to do
with the world of mind or spirit, is a question
which, however it may tooch him aa a man and
moral agent, lies out of the line of his opera
tions aa a men physicist. Be or others may
take it op end treat it aa mental nnd moral phi
losophers and theologians, bnt not aa physical
philosophers. M. Saigey points oat, too, that
all along the Una of material fsota or laws there
is abandon! room for the operation of mind and
will; and tbat a oompiata system of physios does
not in tha least exclude metophystos, tncloding
mental and moral philosophy and theology. Ha
might have gone ranch farther and declared
that it absolutely demands these. It is far
more possible and rational to deny matter,
whioh falls only tinder the observation of our
senses, than mind, whioh is the anbjeet of oar
oonaciotuneaa; and to bold that mind may be
only a product of the organization of matter,
that thought may bo a secretion of tha brain,
at bile is of tha Uvar, if to deny the first prin
ciples of all sonnd philosophy as .well aa of reli
gion. Matter and mind an known to ns only
by their phenomena, not In their enenoa ; and
tbe two c!asses of phenomena are radically dif
ferent. To oonfoond them, or ascribe them ‘
one subject, is folly, not philosophy.
Again, to attempt to aooonat for the existence
of the universe without assigning it to (ho pow
er and will of an intelligent Creator is to violate
that law of our mental constitution which com
pels us to assign every effect to an adequate
cause. The universe cannot be eoatempleted,
either in the whole or in any part of it, without
forcing upon ns the most indisputable evidences
of design and adaptation, (that is, of intelligence
and will,) in its construction. This is so entire
ly the case, that ibe most atheistic materialist
finds himself oompelled to dm language imply
ing and asserting these in hia attempts to ex
plain even its least phenomena, ana to deny
or ignore them in assigning a lint erase to tbe
universe is to fly in the faoe of sonnd philoso
phy, of common sense and oommon honesty as
much as of religion. It is not reason, bnt the
abase of it, which leads any to deny or doubt
the existence of a Divine Creator and Control
ler of all things on tha basis of matter and its
laws. Coold even M. S&igey's theory be estab
lished, we should still need to infer inch a
Being of infinite wisdom sod power to create
the one original ether, endow ita particles with
their original motion, and ont of these simple
materials to evolve that wonderful multiplicity
of related and mutually adapted beings and
foroes we know to exiat. Tbe disposition
to deny God is to be referred not to ra
tional bnt moral aaoaes, to enmity to God
and Hia moral government. On the other hand,
these is often mneh whioh deserves rebuke in
the attitude of professed believers in the God
of nature and of tbe Bible toward the progress
of physical solenoe. In ao far as the {lain they
feel arises from pity for thou who seek to nse
seienoe as m battle ground against Jehovah, or
from righteous indignation at their dishonesty
sod msiloe, it is natural and creditable ; but in
so far as it springs from a vague fear lest these
continual assaults should at length prove sufl
oe asf cl, it to discreditable to the last degree. Aa
well fear lest the braying of donkeys from gen
eration to generation should at last jar tha ran
from the heavens. The Lord will take care of
Himself and of His word, and will see to it
that tha mors hia works are searched tha more
Hia name shall be known, Hia word aooepted,
His government confessed. Prof. Moses, in
his introdoctive to M. Saigey'« work, quotes Dr.
Carpenter as declaring that “Seienoe points to
tha origin&Uon of all power in mind; and there
are satisfactory reasons for believing that the
phenomena of the material universe are the
expreetion of a mind and will of which man's
to the Anita prototype."
Dr. Carpenter infers this to be tone on soien
tifia grounds; tha Christian ftnouslt to be tone,
on the ground tbat God Himself deolsres it.
Let him rest oontent with this knowledge, and
rsjoloe in the aelivity of physioal raaearon and
the progress of material seienoe, as that by
whioh God is glorified and His word confirmed,
as well as the good of man promoted.
